WON THE TWO GAMES.
Emporia Goes Down Twice Before the
Clever Ea!i PLAYERS of Winfield.

Two of the most hotly contested ex
hibition games that ever took place on
a Wichita diamond were played Sun
day and Monday between the Winfield
Reds" and the EmpOria "MarOOns."
The mines are composed Of the best
amateur element in the west. The
crowds we're large and enthusiastic
and proved that what are known as
fans and "roOters" IN baseball par
lance are still TO be foun in Wichita and
there is no question but what Il they
would show the same interest in a
home team that home teams could be
self-supporting.
Sundays game was full Of exciting
incidents and brilliant plays. The bat
terfes were: Winfeld-Ciear and Wool
yer: Emporia-Evans and Patterson.
Both pitchers pitched a fine game and
their support was first-class. There was
some exceedingly heavy batting done
by both teams. The home run by Gear
in the seventh inning was one OF the
prettiest hits ever seen on home dia-
moni. The team work Of both clubs
was all that could be desired-they
played more like professionals than
amateurs. Sherman's work IN LETT field
and WOiaver's superb catching were
also features Of the game. Evans, the
pitcher of the Emporia team. viii be re-

ton and the now defunct Wichita Clip

ed he had not lost his cunning with the
pig skin he was ably supported by

say that they were never used better
in their lives than they were used at
Topeka. The Topeka wheelmen spar
ed no pains or expense TO entertain
their guests in way that all wonld
feel at home.
The Wichita boys tried TO get the
next state meeting, but Salina put up
the plea that they had one of the larg-
est clubs in the state and that they
had one of the best regulation tracks
in the west and had never had state
meeting.
Wichita could not answer that last
argument, because one state meeting
has been held here. Salina got the
votes and the Wichita boys submitted
gracefully.

It will take about five weeks more be-
fore that coal-ga s-oil-salt-artesian wa
ter hole goes down. That at least was
the indication at the council meeting
last night.
When the clock struck Mayor Cox
summoned the council into the chamber
and announced that as he desired the
meeting TO last only nine minutes the
reading of the minutes and the call of
the committees would be dispensed
with.
DR.. Minick was the first man to break
the ice. He asked, for information,
special committee on the coal hole.
Councilman Oliver stated that ar
engagements preparatory 10 beginning
work were about completed. George
bold, he said, offered to furnish the
steam for running the drill for nothing
and thought he would have contract
ready for il before the council met The
city. If it accepts this proposition, which
1t is strongly inclined to do, will have 10
put in a pipe from Dold's engine house
to where the pump viii be located but
as the incarnation is to lease land near
the packing house the expense of pip
ing will not be more than about s35.
This land can be leased a the rate of
So 80 per lot per annum with a one or a
ten years contract at the option Of the
city.
DR.. Minick said that when he was on
the committee he could get lease on
all the land he wanted for nothing.
1t was then announced that in any
event work cannot be commenced very
much earlier than Oct. i. The city has
to buy wire rope about 5000 feet long
for the drill and Mr.. Austin thinks the
rope cannot be made inside of five
weeks, as all such ropes have to be
made 10 order. Having five weeks more
for discussing the matter of location it
was dropped and the special committee
was authorized TO order the rope and
casing At once.
The council then tackled the police
patrol wagon question.
The fire and water committee said
that Chief Warden was ready TO handle
the hoodlum wagon free of cost to the
city. 1t appears the chief keeps a sep
arate team for the engine that is used
but very seldom and as he has plenty
drivers he can operate the hoodlum
wagon very handily.
At present, according TO the state
ment Of Mr.. Oliver, the hoodlum wagon
Is costing about $50 per month.
1t was claimed that Mr.. Howard was
given two years contract by the Pop
ulist police commissioners for running

Happy Event Given in Honor or Ralph
Neiderlander by Chums.

Before the departure of Ralph Med
erlander for St. Louis, his permanent
home, his Wichita chums gave him a
farewell party at the elegant rooms Of
DIR. Hoffman. The good fellowship OF
the occasion was enhanced by the
presence of Judge Jackson OF the bench
Of the Cowley county district court and
the princely Tom Eaton, cashier of the
First National bank of Winfield. both
OF whom are gentlemen OF the most en-
tertaining qualities. Some excellent
singing was a pleasant feature Of the
event Mr.. Neiderlander will leave
some time during the week, and the
little function in his honor will be car
ried to his new home by him as one Of
the most pleasant recollections of Wich

DROWNING OF JIMMY MANN.
The Big Arkansas River has Claimed An
Other Victim.

Jimmy" Mann is the latest victim
of the hungry waters of the Big Ar
kansas river that has swallowed five
persons so far during the past few
months.
He was drowned Sunday forenoon
near the fair grounds while in wadinS
with other boys.
Jimmy was a messenger for the
Western Union telegraph company,

his mother on North Market street.
Sunday morning he was sent out
with two long distance messages both
Of which he delivered and his days
work being done he went 10 the river
with other messenger boys to wade
and swim.
Jimmy could not swim but waded
and unaware OF a deep hole in that
part OF the river he walked into il
and sank.
The other boys saw at once that he
was drowning and they did everything
possible 70 save him.
The current being swift they formed

and with the assistance Of the other
boys took him to shore but II was too

Both the ambulance and Or. Wendell
arrived very soon afterwards but the
boy could not be resGCitated. The
body was then taken 70 Ken6alls and
the boys mother notified The shock
il caused her was - great that her
con Iition became very serious.
Jimmy Mann was very popular az the
Western Union office and all the en-
ployes and messengers sent ricA To-

inclined TO think that no police board
could make a contract for anything
that exceeded the expiration of their
term of office. At any rate the fire COM

use Of a team and driver from the fire

Tangerine. Fla.

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
have noticed with great deal of in
terest your reply to Mr.. Adams sarcas-
tic cut at your efforts to encourage the
orange growers to grow something be-
sides oranges. l believe YOUR plan
is the only correct one that can be Car
ried out by the masses. I have been di-
yersifying my farming" somewhat, but
am now asking myself "where am at. :"
The two freezes completely knocked me
out Of my orange crop and vegetables
and left the grove in pretty bad shape.
] soon got tired of looking at leaf1ess or
ange trees and so came up here to look
after my farming interest here. In my
hurry to get things along as early as
possible / almost forgot the chilling
blast of December and February until l
was very forcIbly reminded of it the other
day when getting up in the morning to
see that the severe frost had killed every
thing in the garden line that had been
started and what is worse the fruit buds
so that we will be minus fruit except by
buying for another year. I begin to
think now that Florida is not the worse
country after all That even Connecti-
cut has drawbacks that may upset ones
calculation considerably. The only way
out of it that | can see is to plant again
which | will do here and in the fall |
will be with you again to keep my grove
coming on. j. Q. Low.

height of Is feet, and in some instances
the fiber was, according to the judgment
of experts, superior in strength to that
of India.
The yield was in several cases at the
rate of $500 pounds to the acre. These
facts, so familiar to the Department of
Agriculture, are here repeated for the
information of those who have not seen
the results of the experiments lnaugu-
rated by it. The trials that have been
made strengthen hope into an assurance
that jute can be successfully cultivated
in the Gulf States and in Southern Call
fornla.
The conditions of soil and climate and
the practical tests of experiment are
here so favorable as seriously to alarm
the government of India. The official
report of an Indian commission ap-
pointed by the state has expressed a
grave apprehension of American COM
petition in the culture of jute.
1t is to be hoped that the enterprise
of the South will prove that this APP
prehension was we'll grounded.
The economic Importance of this
culture to the United States is meal
culable.
No country in the world is capable Of
deriving so vast benefit from this in
dustry as our own. The magnitude of
orr grain and cotton crops is unpar-
aleled in other lands.

What IS an Emulsion?

MIX is true Emulsion, and as milk or cream is
easier to digest and assiate than butter is the
milk or of Cod-lver Oil easier to digest and as
simulate than raw Oil. This is why Scott S Emulsion is
much useful and effective than the natural Oil
why it accompishes so much in arresting waste and
building up the body.
But it is much more than ordinary fat food. It has
other constituents that have wonderful healing and
strengthening power and in addition add the Hypo-
phosphtes Cor Phosphorus, another most important
element in overcoming decreased vitality loss of
flesh. These are the reasons why SCOTS Emulsion is
benefting to-day hundreds of thousands Of consump-
tives and anemc persons, we'll as being food and
remedy for sic<y, wasting children that is surprising
both to physicians and parents.

deal of scratching and believed in diver
sifcation laid thirteen good eggs in thir-
teen different places and setting around
on them night and day succeeded in ad-
ding the whole lot and kept fOOling

hen laid thirteen eggs all IN one nest.
She stuck right to them and in twenty

For the Florida Agriculturist:
Not Starving.

| have just read your very depressing
and disheartening article on our Florida
resources in which you declare dis
tinctly that our "orange growing is extra
hazardous" and also that cur country is
inferior to others for "farming." If
that positi On is correct wish m ore than
ever to know "Where are we at" Our
dilemma reminds us of story:
A colored preacher said to his flock,
'"There are but two roads open to you.
The straight and narrow path leads
through darkness and sorrow. 1t is be-
set with thorns and pitfalls and the
slough of despond, but leads to the hea-
venly gates. The other is the broad
road strewn with roses and lit with sun
shine and blessed with pleasure that
leads to damnatiOn." Den dis niger
takes to the woods" responded his
stanchest member.
If you can make the people of Florida
and the rest of the world believe that
Florida is not fit for either horticulture
or farming, you will get the response,
"Den dis Niger takes to the woods"
do not care to controvert your posi-
ton which is substantially that of the
press of the State, but when you hold me
up as an awful example of special farm
ing, and say, HE, like Mr.
Adams and other one crop men
men is asking Where am | at? We
candidly think they are both in a very
bad place." deem it proper to say {
word to allay the svmpathies of my
friends and forestall any charitable
movements that they may be thereby
moved to make in my behalf.
Being man Of only ordinary abilit.
it was not possible for me to excel il
everything so l have devoted my bes
and chief energies to the single pursui
of horticulture. Whatever success
have achieved in life is due to the fac
that have not "diversifed.
