MENTAL RECREATION.
wnat Various Classes or People Read During
Their Leisure Hours.

What do people read? A glance at the
books of the City library will tell.
Eighty-seren books were taken out yes
terday and ninety the Saturday before by
lawyers, ministers. teachers, merchants
doctors and children.
The lawyers read al kinds of books.
the older men Of the profession generally
read history and biography but some of
the younger members of the bar drift
also into fiction and one gentleman is
charged with taking delight in juvenile
stories.
MERCHANTS and doctors read few library
books, mostly confining themselves to the
better class of fiction.
Children love to read travels and ad-
ventures. but care little for histories ur-
less the language is very much simplified.
Ministers. it is strange to say, draw no
religious books from the library, but
carry home lectures, essays and books of
science and sometimes fiction
School teachers invariably hover around
the fiction shelf. History and science and
pedagogy may stand and stare on them as
they pass by but they cut their acquaint-
ance with cold and stony look, however,
be it said TO their credit that they beguile a
short time every day by reading the stories
to their pupils and they say the children
look with Joy to the approach of that hour.
The picture presented by the Ladies'
Columbian club will hang in the library
room. The library is growing and the in
terest of the public in it is also growing.
The card cataloguing will soon be finished
when it will be comparatively easy to find
what you want.

FAITH IN WICHITA.

The real estate firm of Clement &
Thomas are receiving large amount OF
correspondence from the east that in
dicates the abiding faith of the people in
Wichita and Kansas. One gentleman
from Ohio says:
with all the false reports about Wichi-
ia and the grand Arkansas valley, l have
never lost faith in Wichita and Kansas
with her plucky and enterprising citizens.
l only wish now that | had my property
here sold. l would surely come to Wichi-
ia, for l honestly believe the day is not
far off when she will be twice as great a
city as she is now, and now is good time
to invest in Kansas property" y gentle
man from Indiana says: MANY thanks
for the neat little pamphlet giving a de-
scription of Kansas, Sedgwick county and
Wichita. l wish | had fifty of them TO
distribute in this and adjoining counties.
They are just the thing to give the public
correct ideas Of your country"
1t is gratifying to know that the people
outside of Kansas are taking so much in
terest IN the state, and especially in
Wichita.

SOUP IN DEMAND.
One Hundred And Sixty Persons Fed at
the Soup-House Yesterday.

Yesterday was red-letter day at the
Salvation Army soup-house on South
Lawrence avenue.
One hundred and sixty persons were fed
and the scene was truly busy one.
The previous day 135 persons were
helped, and of this number fully 100 were
actually suffering for something to satisfy
the cravings of their appetite.
The soup-house is booming and the good
people are donating very generously
toward it.
One farmer who read the notices of the
good work OF the army in the EAGLE
called at the soup-house yes
terday with six big, fat chick
ems and left them to make a Sunday
dinner for the children. The donor did
not give his name. but the army will pray
for the man who gave the chickens just
the same, and the recording angel will
know exactly where to credit it up.
The army captain called last night to
say that the demand was so great that q
good many more soup bowls and boilers
are need. He also desired to extend thanks
to the following persons:
The Royal Spice Mills donated tea, pep
per andsbaking powder; J. Dold, oxtails;
Mr.. Thomson, flour; lady. tomatoes; Mrs.
Postalwait, beans; Rev. Winters, meat;
Mrs. NARROW, two gallons milk.

with a careful survey of the condition of
society and literature in England at the
time in which Chaucer wrote, and a

cellent account of the Canterbury pill
grims plans, and the description of the
most famous ones, the king, the squire,
the nun and the miller. The lecture
