TELL WHAT THEY SAW.
Wichita People Visit the Wonders in the
Far West.

A. c .Jobes and 3. II. Campbell have
returned from visit to the mountains.
Speaking of their trip last night Mr..
Jobes said:
Colonel B. H. Campbell, his two sons,
Charlie and ROBBIE. and myself visited
the Grand Canyon of the Colorado on
the 9th. We had all been anxious TO see
this wonderful work of nature, about
which we had read and heard so much,
and were certainly not disappointed.
The most accessible point 10 reach
the canyon is from Flagstaff. Arizona.
from which point it is necessary to
travel sixty-five mile by stage. This
journey was made in about eleven hours
there being four relays Of horses.
The canyon is fifteen miles wide and
$50 mile long. not including the Marble
canyon, which is really a continuation
of the Grand canyon. and with this
would increase the length 10 neary 400
miles.
The perpendicular depth OF the can
yon from the brink down 10 the sur
face is $50 feet. The river can be
seen from several points on the brink.

panion, the Rev Mr.. Pate, a man Of
about 20 years OF age ana editor OF a
paper in Los Angeles. had become pros
trated about four mile down the can
yon and was without food or water.
The two men had started 10 make the
descent the morning before on root, ex-
pecting to return the same DAY. but
found themselves so exhausted by night
that they were compelled TO spend the
night at the bottom OF the canyon be-
side the river
They started on their upward jour-
ney, but had not gone far when their
food and water gave ont, and about
3 O'Clock in the afternoon the old gem
tlman gave OUT entirely as before stat
ed. The young man prepared a bed Of
brush for him and proceeded 10 the
bring and reached there al dark more
dead than alive. He requested Hanks
the guild. TO accompany him with his
mules 10 rescue the Old gentleman,
which Hanks heartlessfy refused to do,
assigning as a reson that they had de-
cined 10 patronize him the morning be-
fore and proceeded alone upon foot in
defiance OF his warnings, for which he
proposed 10 pay the old man back by
letting him lay there ana die
This aroused the indignity and SYM
pathy OF our party, and Charlie and
Robbie immedia tely volunteered 10 ac-
company the stranger 10 rescue the
unfortunate man, both or them being
unfamiliar with the trial or canyon.
Colonel Campbell would not give his
consent for both the boys to go. where
upon l yolunteerer 10 take the place of
Chirlie and our party OF three started on
the perilous journey OF rescue taking
with US a supply of food and refresh
ment. We at last reached the old gen.
tleman who was almost famished and
about II o'clock al night and succeed
ed in returning with him in safety,
though if we could have seen the road
we were travelling I have no doubt we
would have abandoned the journey and
left the unfortunate man 10 his fate.
I'VE amused ourselves the next even
ing in reading an autograph album in
possession of Hanks in which were writ
ten many statements (mostly by En-
glish and German visitors) who had Wis
tied all scenic parts Of interest in the
world, including the Yellowstone Park.
Yosemite Valley, Niagara Falls Of this
country, and made the uniform express
sion that the Grand canyon of the COL
orado exceeded them all, confined in
wonder and grandeur.
I'VE found the officials and employees
Of the a. and +. road extremely cour-
teous and obliging. and glad to accord
visitors every facility and accommoda-
ton at their command TO enable them
to visit the canyon as comfortably s
possible"

Rappal says he has demonstrated the
claim of the Eagle that corn can be
raised here every year before the hot
winds come.
The hot winds never come before Au-
gust and this early variety of corn was
fully matured by July %.
Mr.. Rappal did not need the rain of
yesterday to make his corn because the
husk are turning white, which indi-
Gates that the corn ii ripe.
There was a strip of country extend
ing from the southwest to northeast
through Sumner county and across the
southeast edge Of Sedgwick county
about six miles wide that missed sever
al good rains that seemed TO extend
over the other parts Of the two coun-
ties.
Mr.. Rappal must be on the north side
of this dry strip but his corn matured
before the hot winds could injure il.
That is a good recommendation for the
early variety of corn.
The agricultural reporter for the
Eagle is an experienced farmer and
can tell just as we'll by looking at sam
Piles Of corn what it will make per acre
as TO look over the field, providing, of
course, there is a fair stand of corn and
he gives his word that this early varie-
" raised by Mr.. Rappal will NAIVE for
ty-five bushels per acre.
That IS not as good as eighty bushels
to the acre but forty-five bushels every
year will prove a sure fortune 20 any

THEY DID NOT APPEAR.
Kissing Trial set for Yesterday IN Judg
Jones Court Failed.

Farmer John Pulliam was not ar
raigned in Justice Jones court yester-
day for kissing pretty Mrs. Wentz.
The trial was set for o'clock in the
afternoon but County Attorney Davis
was absent and summons had not been
issued 10 the witnesses in the case.
It was expected that Mr.. Pulliam
would plead guilty but it is claimed
that his counsel, Judge Tucker, advised
him to fight the case and he concluded
to do it.
\ half hour before the time set for
the trial yesterday Justice Jones office
was packed with people anxious to see
the parties to the suit and hear their
testimony.
Helen Gould would not have been in
il yesterday with Mrs. Wentz as a
drawing card. Everybody wanted TO
see the charming little woman who
accused Farmer Pulliam of kissing her
Everyone of those present had read
Mr.. Pulliams tatement in the morn
ing's Eagle in which he had admitted
that Mrs. Vent was pretty and the
crowd were ready TO vote John guilty
under great provoca ton.
The crowd waited patiently and the
bald heads were the good natured tar
sets at which jokes were fired and evil
IDENTIFY knowing there would be no trial
Justice Jones invited every bald head
he saw 10 take chair inside the rail-
ing.
At 4:l5 o'clock County Attorney John
Davis and Judge Tucker edged their
way through the crowd and the specta-
tors stretched their necks expecting to
pee the prosecuting witnesses come af-
ter but they did not.
The county attorney and the defend
ants lawyer leaned over the desk and
held q whispered conversation with
Justice Jones after which they pushed
their way back through the crowd and
left the room.
Justice Jones disappeared but the
crowd held every man TO his place ex-
pecting the hall to shortly open, but
they were doomed 10 disappointment
After about twenty minutes Consta-
bic Tom NoSS arose from a reclining 20
sition on round table and blandly re-
marked The trials put off until next
Tuesday at ] o'clock.
Then the crowd began to slowly melt
away. but a large portion hung around

WAS A GOOD RAIN
DIR. johnson Misses His Guess and Railroad
People are Pleased.

The atten ton Of DR.. Johnson OF the
United States Wichita weather station
is called to his local prediction for
yesterday as furnished the Eagle the
evening preceding, also TO his other
uniform predictions of "dry'' when ii
rained. Night before last every indica
ton was for rain. The wind was in
the southeast, heavy bank Of clouds
lay along the entire northwestern nor
lion, candy was sticky. postage stamps
were curling, The maple leaves were
turned upside down, the flies were try
ing TO get inside, rheumatics grum-
bled, etc. etc. Everything said rain
except the indicators at the weather
bureau. And it did rain. 1t thunder
ed and ightened and poured down.
And it rained again. And then II
stopped and rained some more. And
then after some more thunder and light
ming it set in for a regular flood and
before the thing let's up We expect to
see the city under water. DIR. Johnson
had better take his instruments and
signals in out Of the wet.
The Missouri Pacific men were jubi-
liant yesterday and Mr.. Krekel, head
clerk at division headquarters said:
This rain now insureS a magnificent
corn crop all along our road"
sas than the railroad employees. They
rejoice when the town proSperS and
they are wild with delight when Kan
sas comes to the front with a crop of
corn or wheat that knocks out all the
other states.
This can all be accounted for by the
well known fact that prosperity in the
cities, towns and country means pros
perity for the railroads.
Every railroad man wants his town
and his division of the road to stand
No. l, in a business point and that
desire makes every one of them loyal
10 the communities where they are To-
Gated.
The Missouri Pacific get their wea-
Their reports in the early morning but
the account of the rain in the middle of
the forenoon was gathered by special
dispatches and the men at headqUar-
ters were pleased because as they sta
tea it inSure3 tne corn crop.
This completes the crop and we do
make this corn crop" said Mr.. Kre-
KEEL.
1T rained this morning all over our
division. There was a good rain all
the way from Ell Dorado and up as far
as Mcpherson.
There was also a good rain on the
Colorado line. Hutchinson had a fine
ain anu <tiludlc anu llOulil f1Ope
ports 21a inches OF raoinfall. Don't
you know that country up north of
Wichita around those points is the
garden Of Kansas.
The rain extended south as far as
we had any reports. Winfield, Sedan,
Coffeyvile and al Caldwell. The sec
ton of country east OF Winfield had a
good rain night before last and they
needed il.
The Santa Fe reports a god rain on
its line TO the territory and along the
Wichita and Western.
The Rock Island weather reports
are not sent in here but the train men
report the rain all along their line in
Southern Kansas.
The rain in the city was heavy and
the cutters ran full of water and in
some places the entire streets were
flooded.
The weather bureau signal for clear
and warmer wea ther hung limp and
wet all the forenoon over the new

W. z. Faulkner with his brother have
been visiting their cousin Arthur Faux
ner for several days.
The are young men who live in Keene
y H., and have been around the world
III the last three years.
I'VE went to Europe to visit for a
year or So" said w. Z. Faulkner TO an
Eagle reporter last night, land when
we got ready 10 come home we conclud
ed to come home by the way of India.
1--WE are this far on our way, having
come directly from Japan here. 1t
seems more like home to me here in
Wichita than any place l have visited
in three years.
when 1 get back TO Keene I will
have completed my journey around the
world and if l were going to select a
new place TO live of all the places /
have seen l would select Wichita.
Il did not like India. There are too
many people there and they never saw
comfort We talk about good times
hut they would not know what that
menat in India.
The weather in India is wonderfully
hct anu foreigners cannot live there
for very many years without becoming
thoroughly poisoned with the malaria.
The place that most interested me
was the North Cape in Norway In
the month of June and July the sun is
never out of sight.
1T appears just above the horizon
in the south and seems TO move back
and forth from east 10 west and does
not come up overhead like il does here.
NO, L did not like it in Norway. 1
would rather live in New Hampshire
or Wichita than to live there. Up at
North Cape it is either all day or all
night.
I'VE stayed quite a while in japan.
The japanese are an interesting peo-
pie and some of the women are rather
pretty. They eat great deal of fish
and rice in Japan and what surprised
me was to find them eating fish with
out cooking it.
''They know how to cook rice and it
is really good. / saw few woliy horses
in Japan but horses 90 not seem to do
any good. Most of the farming there
is done by man power and l have seen
number of cooleys pulling an old
wooden plow just like they used in pri-
mitive ages.
Most of the money in circulation is
the yen, which is equal to a half dollar
of our money and the sen, which takes
100 TO make a yen. That makes them
eqpal to one half of our one cent coins.
