The good work still goes on.
Yesterday Mr.. Biting had another very
successful day in getting subscribers to
the auditorium fund and when reporter
for the EAGLE saw him last night he had a
broad smile and was the very pink of affa-
bility.
II his success continues five or six days
longer the auditorium is secured and
Wichita will be the acknowledged mecca
for the hosts of people who congregate in
Kansas annually in grand lodges, political
meetings, mnsical conventions, etc.
The following encouraging letter was
received yesterday by the editor of the
EAGLE from d we'll known travelling man.

of Wichita and of the friendship the

auditorium is sure thing. From the
list published see you have not got near
all the leading merchants on it. 1t is the
duty of every merchant, banker and others
to subscribe to the stock of the auditorium.
The building of such a building will be
the means of bringing many large
gathering to Wichita which would not
come unless it had a building suitable to
accommodates; then all these gatherings
and everybody is benefited by the same,
as it is scattered all over the city in small
amounts. l am not a resident of your city
but l am glad to see the move
that is being made as have soft spot in
my heart for the peerless city and want to
see 1t grow and prosper. l was at Hutch
inson today and heard several leading citi-
zens say that the building of All auditor
ium at Wichita was going to hurt Hutch
inson, as it would divide the honors of
being convention city. also that Wichita
had the drop on Hutchinson as they had
better hotel accommodations. Let the
good work go on and do not let it drag as
the time is soon at hand when the political
bodies and others will be looking out for
a place to hold conventions. All honor to
the travelling men as being the prime
movers in this matter and they will hold
about tho first meeting in the new audi
toriunl, if it is built. ought not to say
'if'' for l feel certain it will be finished

Mr.. PEEL IS INVISIBLE.

He May start for Newport Tonight,
but Then He Has started So Often.
Young Mr.. Robert Peel, the big
blond Englishman, ex-friend Of Mrs.
Langtry and Marie Tempest, who is in
New York to enforce the engagement
that he insists exists between him and
Miss Kittle Sanford, granddaughter OF
Millionaire Henry Sanford. has very
sybarltic tastes. He likes to lie abed
o'mornings.
Up at the Hotel Lincoln, on Broadway
and Fifty-second street, the clerk said
to-day to an Evening World" reporter
that Mr.. Peel never, under any circum-
stances, left his rooms until a little
before / o'clock in the afternoon. His
valet wakes him at noon and grooms
him. When this process is completed,
Mr.. Peel saunters downstairs, ready
to dazzle all beholders with his size,
his comeliness and his English insouci-
ance.
Mr.. Peel has also given strict orders
that his morning slumbers shall in nc
way be disturbed by the delivery to
him In his room of any notes, cards,
kilograms or messages. They are all
cold-storaged in his hotel box,
Peel will not leave for Newport to-
night. He has made preparations sew
eral times to leave for Saratoga, Mag
ara Falls and other points, but when
his luggage" had all been packed and
brought downstairs, he always changed
his mind, and the traps were taken to
his room again.
