THE ICE MISSION.
Much Suffering In the City-An APP
neal.

A great deal Of suffering for the want
of cooling drink is being experienced by
the sick poor Of the city during this
hot spell. and owing to a lack of funds.
the Ice Mission-that band OF noble
women, who have been self-sacrifcing TO
an extreme in their devotion to the cause
OF charty--is utterly unable to supply the
demand for ice
II does not tax any citizen who has an
income to give or 10, or even 30 cents
toward so charitable a mission, and If
even one third of those who are well
able 10 do so would contribute small sums.
all suffering for ice could easily be allie
waited, and many a parched throat and
feyerish brow could be relieved. and many
a weary soul be made happy.
Contributions may be sent to Mrs.
Bagby, at the Auditors office in the Capt.
toll or to her residence, or be deposited
in the Ice-Mission boxes.

Four remarkable hands were held In a
game OF whist in one Of the Brooklyn
clubs last week." said Frank \. Herrick.
of the City Of Churches, al Wormleys
this morning. The gentlemen playing
were all men OF unquestioncd integrity
and above the suspicion Of joining con-
spiracy to create excitement among the
vo,aries of the card game OK intellect.
The cards were properly Shuffied and cut
and the tray of spades was the trump
card. Upon picking up his hand the
dealer discovered that he held all thirteen
of the spades. There were ordinations
of surprise from the other players as
we'll when they looked over their cards.
and a showdown developed the fact that
the suits were evenly divided, the other
three players having all the diamonds,
clubs. and hearts, respectively. There was
probably never before such a singular Oc-
currence at "A whist table, but | saw

He threw the iives to the c,lb. D0remus
in his turn discovered that the six cards
dealt 10 him consisted OF two Fights,

TRANs-MISsISsIPI CONGRESS,

The next session of the Trans Missis-
sippi Commercial Congress will convene
in st. Louis, on invitation of the Mer-
chants Exchange, on Monday, Nov. &c,
1894. and will probably continue four
days. This date has been selected with
the special view of securing the attend
ance of the western members of the
United States congress enroute to Wash
ington for the re-asSembling Of that
body.
The territory embraced in the repre-
sentation of the congress includes all
states and territories lying west of the
Mississippi river, and those small por-
tions of Louisiana and Minnesota which
lie east Of it.
The object of the congress is to dis
cuss all questions affecting the interests
Of the people In the foregoing territory,
which may be the subject of legislation
by the United States congress, and TO
express To it, through resolution and
otherwise, the sentiments of the west
ern people. 1t will also endeavor to
take such steps for the presentation of
these resolutions to that body, as will
command its attention and action.
Whatever tends 10 promote the inter
ests of the western states and to increase
reciprocal trade among them properly
comes within the scope of its discus
sions.
While any such question NAV prop
erly he brought forward for discussion,
among those which are most likely 10 be
prominent are: The reconciliation of
liver; irrigation of arid and other
lands; the disposition of Indian and pub
lie lands; :he Nicaragua canal; ma
tional bankrupt law, the improvement
of western rivers and harbors: antI-op-
ton legistion; mining laws; admission of
territories TO statehood.
The governor of each state and terrific
r. may appoint ten delegates.
Each county is entitled 10 one dele
gate, to be appointed by its commission
ers or judges.
The mayor of each city NAV appoint
one delegate, and an additional delegate
for every 10000 population; provided,
however, that not more than ten dele
gates shall lie thus appointed from any
one city.
Each commercial body, or business
organization, may appoint three dele
gates, and one additional delegate for
each 100 members.
Ex-presidtnts of the congress, gov
Mississippi river, and all members of the
United States congress are eN-officio
delegates, with ali the privileges of APP
pointed delegates, excerpts those of vot-
ing and election TO office.

WICHITA,

Notwithstanding all that Wichita has
had to contend with from internal and
external causes, she is today distributing
more goods than ever before. This DEM
onstrates what the EAGLE has always
claimed that the territory surrounding
this city would support large jobbing
and manufacturing trade such as would
require city of several times the size of
Wichita 10 supply. Again the panic has
revolutioniZed the wholesale trade of
this country. The country merchants
are carrying smaller stocks and necessar-
lily buying in smaller quantities and
must buy where they can get their goods
in the shortest possible time. When the
country tributary to Wichita is fully de-
veloped, their demands will be such as
will support at this point the larg-
est city between the Missouri river and
the Rocky Mountains. The business is
here ready for those who have the
money and experience to develop it,
and with the returning tide of prosper
ity there can he no doubt but all advan-
tages will be seen, appreciated and
taken hold of.

HOW 1T WAS DONE.

One Of the saluIary effects Of the late
election is the perfect candor of Dem
ocralIc papers IN their Comments upon
the men and measures Of the campaign.
1t comes to the surface particularly in
their assignment Of reasons for de-
feat. Some say II WAS apathy On the
part of Democratic voters; Others
say it was want Of harmony between
the administration and the people. Still
others attribute 1t TO the bungiing ef-
forts q, legislation. and q few. inten.
upon covering The ground. make the
omnibus excuse that Il was al these IN
tiuences combined. II our Democratic
brethren have a natural proueuess 70
honesty and candoT IN such matters they
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1894-11-13

no doubt greatly enjoy the privilege
of speaking out unreservediy VI
course they would have regarded it i'm
polite to deal with facts prior to the
election, but now that it is over, the
most conscientious of the fraternity can
unbosom their griefs and tell their
readers how it was done and how, If
policy which they had no right TO sug-
gest, had been adopted, things would
have been different. If mere is comfort
for disqualification, let them enlighten
the public to their hearts content.
i few things, however, are self-evi-
dent on the face of the returns, the
chief of which is that the majority
against the party Of TRADITIONS" and
"time-honored principles" was over
whelming. The voters Of the country,
for reasons entirely satisfactory to them
selves, have turned this party down, and
these efforts toward explaining how it
came about only cause a derisive smile
which passes down the lines from
Maine TO California. 1t may be said in
charity that 1t would be expe citing too
much to hold the party to account for
all the accumulated promises and
pledges of thirty years, but the rank
and file who do the voting had the right
to expect more creditable attempt to
serve their wishes. But it is all over
low. The party and its managers and
bosses have served their probation, and
the people have placed their own
estimate upon what was accomplished.
Henceforth Democratic pledges will be
taken with the understanding that
plethora of promises has little to do with
the paucity OF works.
