ABOUT THE LIGHTS
None OF the City Lighting Companies VIII
Meet the Suggested Cuts.

At meeting OF the city council last
Monday night a sweeping declaration of
principals We're passed. IL declared that
unless the three electric light companies
OF Wichita would reduce the tariff TO the
city at least so per cent the council would
refuse TO use their lights The prospect of
the Peerless Princess being In utter dark
ness. unless the companies agreed TO fur
nish their lights at one-half the price now
charged, caused a representative OF the
EAGLE 10 call upon the several companies
yesterday and ascertain what steps they
proposed 70 take.
J. ". O'Neal, manager of the Wichita
Electric Railway and Light company, ex-
pressed about the general position OF al
the companies as follows:
The resolution l have read in the paper
which | see provided that we should be
notified. As far as our company is con
cerned we have received no official Motif
cation. Our company has taken no steps
whatever, and as the time is drawing very
near | cannot see that we can say any
thing at this time. We have contract
with the city and have been doing our
part ana the city theirs, with the excep-
tion of paying for the lights. 1t is usually
the case with parties having contracts, If
one party desires TO withdraw from it, 70
come and talk the matter over. but in this
case the light committee, nor any OF the
members of the council, have not been
near US. / cannot understand the matter

Wichita wallopped Hutchinson yester
y o e 8

Wichita Wallopped Hutchinson yester-
day as usual.
Some time ago the Hutchinson travelling
men got gay and challenged the Wichita
travelling men 10 game Of baseball. The
challenge was accepted.
The game was played vest erday.
Early in the morning quite a crowd came
down from the salt city TO back their nine
with their yells aud their cash. The
Hutchinson nine were dressed in white
uniforms and their colors were white and
black. They were in high glee and
actually thought they could play ball
AT 2:30 a crowd Of LOCO people assem- bled
at the fair grounds, many of whom were
from Hutchinson.
The first thing the visitors did was to
mount a wagon, display a roll of money
and offered to bet The Wichita fellows at
first didn't believe in betting, and this
encouraged the Hutchinson fellows
Finally when they got extra gay the
Wichita boys quietly called their bluffs
and in short time had them baDsrupted.
1t was nearly O'Clock when the game
was called and Hutchinson went to the
bat. Plagman threw them easy balls to
encourage them and when few home
runs were made the enthusiasm of the
Hutchinson fellows knew no bounds.
They had brought a stock of tin whistlers
aud COW bells with them and the air was
rent with discord. AT the end of the sec
ond inning the sccre stood, Hutchinson S,
Wichita o. There was great rejoicing
among the visitors and lt looked like
Wichita wouldn't make a score. Hutch
inson had the umpire and he was dandy.
He seemed TO delight in giving it to the
Wichita boys in the neck. His rulings
became so rank that Elmer Beach ana
others entered vigorous protest and a
second umpire was appointed This was
the turning point in the game. Hutchinson
had played horse long enough and 1t was
deemed time TO stop it. From that mo-
ment on Wichita wiped the earth with the
Salt City. The latter nine became ratified
and fell down at every point. They had
no ambition to hit the ball. The atmos-
phere seemed to be what they were after
and they got it every time. If flour
barrel had been thrown at their pitcher he
couldn't hit it. The fielders moved about
like rheumatic elephants and the way
they paved the air for balls twenty feet
away was very laughable. The lungs OF
their advocates were paralyzed aud they
couldn't utter the faintest scream. They
were in the soup and they struggled like
frogs 10 get out, but in vain. Nine babies
could have beaten them. They were regular
hams. but nothing better could be ex-
rected from a little country village like
Hutchinson. 1t is not expected that Sleepy
Hollow could get upa base ball nine that
could beat New York. Wichita, however,
is generous and 1t extends its sympathy TO
the poor fellows who lost their money and
is ready to pay their fare back home sooner
than see them walk.
Last night the Wichita boys gave the
visiting nine a royal reception at the
Carey, which lasted uutil late hour and
in which all the troubles OF the day were
forgotten.

A SAD CASE.
Arthur Harrison Seriously Injuries JOSEPH
knobaugh Colwich.

The whereabouts of Arthur Harrison,
son of DR.. Harrison of Coiwlch, Is not
known at the present time. IL appears
that young Harrison had some grinding
done at the mill of Joseph knoblaugh one
day this week, and when the grist was de-
livered dispute arose as TO the weight OF
the grain. Harrison claimed that he
should have had forty pounds more than
was shown on the books, TO his credit. 4
dispute arose over the matter but Knob
laugh agreed to make the weight good as
claimed Dy Harrison, and took the sacks
10 the bin for the purpose OF hilIng them.
To this young Harrison objected, saying
he could stand the stealings. To this accu
sation knoblaugh gave the lie, but friends
interposed and the matter was dropped for
the time.
In an honr young Harrison returned to
the mill for the purpose OF paying for the
grinding, Carrying with him n coal chisel
enclosed in a small sack which Was seuvred
20 his wrist. knoblaugh was talking to u
neIghbor at the time, and only extended
his hand TO Harrison for the money, when
the latter struck him a heavy blow on the
back of the head and one nnder the right
eye, telling him to the floor. He then
kicked knoblaugh in the face with his
heavy boot, cutting a severe cash.
The physician says that had the blow
been a half inch higher it would have
proven fatal. As it is Mr.. knoblaugh is
improving nicely and will be out in Il few
days Young Harrison made his escape
and his Whereabouts Is not known at the
present time.
Arthur Harrison has resided at Colwich
for several years and has always borne an
euyiable reputation. His family is highly
esteemed by all, and no one regrets the
trouble more sincerely that DR.. Harrison.
