TnAT LITTLE. HAUNTING FACE.

1t was in my dreams that first saw her face;
] As she came dancing toward me down the
/ sunlit street,
A little fairy form of matchless grace,
Dark laughing eyes, and lips SO red and
Above her bent the soft. blue, summer sky,
| And the flowers looked up and smiled as she
passed by.
Her little dimpled hand she placed in mine,
! The sweet music of her voice fell on my ear.
The perfumed ali, the glitterlng toss and shine
OF golden hair and laughter sweet and clear
| As little silver bells IL perfect tune,
| Sweet dream, of fairy child and fowery
June.
From out my window in the silent night,
How oft I've seen her with the moonbeams
playing,
A fitting. airy form in sllvery white
The zephyrs through her shining tresses
And in the ghadowy, dreamy. twilight hour
How oft. how Oft I've felt her witching
power
Last night her face smiled into mine again,
From out the glowing eLnbeTs on the hearth.
Her golden tresses mingling with the flame.
Her eyes like stars, her face dimpling with
nirtl.
But in the violet depths, beneath the flames
red light
The laughing face soon vanished from my
sight.
little spirit child where is your home,
What bright realm does your sweet presence
grace!
When from its sylvan bowers your footsteps
roam
Il it TO seek q faireE brighter place?
Trust not this earth; its pleasures will not last;
Its faIrest blossoms perish in the blast.
Would you give celestial peace for earthly
bliss:
o little spirit, fold your restless wings.
This earth is fair: but tic sweetest bliss,
May come from false, false lips whose deadly
stlngs
Can wound-yea kill, the tender, trusting
heart;
Sunshine and shawow, each, here has part.

TIE TRANsMlssIssIPPI CONGRESS

Three years ago the first session of the
Transmississippi congress was held at
Kansas City, No. where the organiza-
ton, consisting of representatives from
the principal cities (tha mayors in most
| cases. commercial bodies, and the states
at large west Of the Mississippi river,
| (aDpointed by the governors was perfect
ed. Since then three other meetings
| have been held, at Denver, Omaha and
New Orleans respectively, the last one
occurring last February. Prior to that
tie meetings had been held semi-an-
nually, but at the New Orleans meeting
! it was decided to meet annually, and
the next meeting was appointed for
! May 2, 1893, at Ogden, Utah.
The object for which these congresses
are held is to discuss matters affecting
the commercial and industrial interests
of tie vast territory embraced between
the Mississippi river and the Pacific
coast, and to formulate measures calcu-
lated to advance and conserve those.iu-
terests and present them to the national
congress at Washington. In this way
important and desirable legislation is
greatly facilitated.
The city of Wichita was one of the
prime movers in The organization and
with perhaps single exception has been
represented at all the meetings of the
congress. No city or state is more
interested in the objects of these meet
ings than Wichita and Kansas, inasmuch
as the transportation question win be one
Of first Importance to which attention
will be given by the coming session.
This, with the other important questions
OF irrigation, arid lands, public lands,
silver, the policy of the interior depart
ment. ETC., makes it next to imperative
that Wichita and the state be represented
at the Ogden meeting.

WICHITA.

Wichita is generally understood to be
an Indian word, and it is also understood
that the city was so named in honor of
| the once strong tribe OF Indians bearing
the name. But, comparatively few peo-
| pie, even long residents in the city, know
what the name signifies in the original
tongue, although it has been published
in these columns. In answer to inquiries
we give it herewith:
The word Wichita as applied to the
Indian tribe of that name originally,
means painted Eyes," and was taken
matter of personal adornment: they
kept their faces around the eyes painted
in fantastic colors, and were thus readily
distinguishable among other tribes with
which they associated. Later the Paint
ed Eyes" tribe, which was the stronger,
absorbed three or four smaller tribes,
but retained the name. though in the
Usage tongue it had different meaning,
signifying with them Scattered
Lodges" or more properly, gathering
Of scattered lodges or tribes.
The Wichita Indians now occupying
the reservation of that name on the
southwest border or Oklahoma, as a tribe
are made up of the remnants of several
tribes whose identity is lost and their
names, some of them, forgotten. as is the
case with several other Of the tribes that
inhabit the territory, as the Seminoles,
Sac and Fox.
