have been known to track them after a

where it is little disturbed, the tiger

The sun, the great luminary of this
mundane sphere needs no defense.
The sun of Righteousness" whose
blessed beams have penetrated the NOR
al and spiritual darkness of this sinful
world for almost nineteen hundred
years needs no defense. The most alb
solutely certain of all established scien-
tific facts is the uplifting power of the
Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Major Cole in the great work in which
he is engaged, needs no defense and

weakness not to say prerility of some
OF the positions taken by Mr.. Charles

First-The bold statement about the
evolution" of religion is the sheereSr

be proven. 1t is admitted that there is
progress in civilization; that there is a
trend upward in mans intellectual and

forces that uplift; but that there is

RAM WILL BE HIS DEPUTY.
Political World is Convulsed by an An
nouncemeut of Mr.. Snearer.


Yesterday at high noon the political
heavens suddenly became overcast; the
horizon rippled in waves of livid fire;
the air dripped blood.
J. A. Shearer stood calmly amid the
celestial-politico convulsion-the cause
of it all. He had just then announced
his candidacy for dog-catcher and 1t
was too much for Nature and the body
polite.
Before the terrible proclamation the
politicians were driven in groups from
place to place. Reporters bcsieGed Mr..
Shearer and finally, under coercion, he
consented TO talk.
He sad: YES, 1 am a candidate for
dog-catcher of Wichita. AS is well
known by all my near political friends
my political ambition has at least
reached the point where silence can no
longer be maintained. The office that
is seeking me is dog-catcher of Wichita
and am told by my friends that 1t has
some chances of success in the great
struggle which is now so prominent
and demanding q solution.
1.-THE reason that / am such a valua-
BILE candidate is because 1 have a fine
Mareno Ram. He is just turning into
his fifth year. His name is. Jerry. He
shall be my first deputy. He is pos
sessed of a splendid education and is
as much a gentleman as you would
meet-goes on all fours. He has clear
ed the farm of all dogs and would be a
very useful citizen OF Wichita in an
official capacity. He would not per-
nit a dog TO remain in the city limits.
He might cause some people TO take
the Bumper degree or to be Vacinnated
to keep the order from spreading.
Now. you see Jerry Will take care Of
the dogs while 1 run the finances, the

IT WAS QUITE PATHETIC.
Scene in Drama Has a Parallel In Real
Life, Too.

Mart E. Heisley played Major Burnley
N the Girl I Left Behind Me, last
night at the opera house. He had a
little boy in the play who ran away from
home and went out among the Indians.
At certain point in the play he receiv-
ed a. telegram saying that the boy was
wounded and that part of the scene
was very pathetic. The audience rec
ognized the reality of the scene as rep
resented by Major Burley but they did
not know that il was the man and not
the character that was in operation at
the time. He sobbed and broke down
with grief to such an extent or reailty
that many tender hearted people were
touched The fact is that at the iden-
teal moment the dramatic father re-
ceived a telegram announcing that ms
son was dying far away among the
Indians the real father-Mart HeiSiey-
received a telegram announcing the
fact that his child-hiS only boy-was
diving in New York. This is what made
the scene so real and the grief of Major
Burley so natural.
Mr.. Heisley is a gentleman with an ex
IRENE fondness for children and he has
only one child-the boy which the tele-
gram announced was dying In New
York.
TIL Door fellow was almost broken
hearted and after the play was over
he absolutely broke down with the
weight of his grief.

Major Cole Does Not Take the UnuaI Satur-
days Rest But Attends Meetings.
Evangelists usually take Saturday as
an of day in their business but Major
Cole is an exception to this rule. He
was SO far recovered from his indisposi-
ton OF Friday that he attended both af-
ternoon and evening meetings yester-
day.
An audience of about 100 gathered in
the little building where the Methodists
hold services on College Hill. Rev,
Colt and other pastors We're present
TO assist.
The afternoon meetings during the
past week have been a great help to
the smaller churches which are doing
picket duty on the outskirts of the city.
The overcrowding of the NJ. E. church
was avoided last night by closing the
doors when it was well filled. Those
who could not get in there went to the
Presbyterian church where a meeting
was conducted by Reys. Lawrence and
Watson.
Major Cole spoke to the travelling men
last night. 1t was their night to be at
home but a good number turned out
IN response to their invitation. The
speaker centered his remarks about
the thought of home and touched ten
der chords in the hearts of many. When
the rising testimony was given major
ity OF the travellers present arose Many
responded with verbal testimonies.
My grip is always packed for Heaven"
Il am travelling toward Heaven" were
some of the remarks.
Today Major Cole will be at the En-
poria avenue Baptist church at 10 a. m.
at the Plymouth Congregational church
at II a. m, at the y. NJ. G. A. service
at the Presbyterian church at p, m,

THEY CAN NOT COMBINE.
Otto Eckstein Returns and Has Something
to Say About Senatorial Election.

Otto EckStein was at the court house
yesterday transacting some legal bust
ness. Legislature work seems to agree
with him. He if anything seems more
robust than when elected.
In regard to the senator business Mr..
Eckstein thinks that Burton is pretty
near master of the situation. The
Sedgwick county representatives are
for Ady but Mr.. Ady has not developed
sufficient strength to rout Burton.
MIR. Eckstein gives it as his opinion
that if Mr.. Ingalls, had entered for the
contest last week he could have been
elected, but at his late day il will be
impossible to combine the opposition
to Burton on ingalls,. The opposition
may be able to prevent the election of
Burton for a time but Mr.. Eckstein
thinksno unless a great change takes
place tomorrow.

RECEIVER WILL BE APPOINTED.
Geo. Pitts of Wellington Talks About TIT
Wichita National Receivership.

Wichita National Receivership.
Colonel Joe Pitts of Wellington came
in yesterday from Washington where he
had been on business of interest to him
self and to the depositors of the Wich-
ita National.
Mr.. Pitts is a pleasing gentleman and
is one of the leading Democrats of Sum-
ner county. He is an applicant for the
receivership of the suspended Wichita
National bank.
Me. Pitts talked pleasantly of his ex-
perience in Washington and said that
the receivership of the Wichita Nation
al remains statu quo. He is of the
opinion that a permanent receiver will
be appointed in a short time and says
that he is still willing to accept the po-
sition should it be rendered to him.
