Mrs. Duffy of Second Street Still Unheard
From

James Duffy, who lives between
Fourth and Fifth avenues on Sec
ond street, is getting very unesy about
the continued absence of his wife.
Nine days ago Mrs. Duffy left home
during a nervous fit and has not been
seen or heard of since.
She was making bread at the time of
her departure and suddenly she ran out
Of doors and up town. Her husband
Immediately realized what was the ma [
ter and he followed her. She turned
around the corner Of the Occidental
hotel going north, and he went up the
alley 20 intercept her When he came
out on the street again she was no.
where to be seen.
Mr. Duffy returned home thinking
that she would be back in a short time,
but she has not come back yet. For a
few days he was not very uneasy be-
cause she often left while suffering
from such attacks before but came
back again.
When she had not come back after a
reasonable time, he began vigorous
search for her and after days and days
inquiring he has been unable TO find
the slightest trace of her.
1t was suggested that she might have
drowned herself. but Mr.. Duffy would
not believe that at first Since. how
ever. he has made diligent inquiries
along the river banks. without avail.
Mr.. and Mrs. Duffy and their four
children came here before Christmas
from Darlington, O. T, whore he was
attached to the Indian department.
While there Mrs. Duffy was also a
victim of neuralgia attacks. but an
Idnian woman cured her with some
medicine made from herbs, and she felt
quite we'll when they came here.
1t is a very unfortunate condition.
Mrs. Duffy has three small children.

THEY MUST KEEP QUIET.
Early Morning Carousal Ends in the City
Cooler.

Cooler.
The hurry-up wagon enjoyed a boom
yesterday morning.
Along towards the dawn of day the
police raided a house down on South
Topeka avenue and there was scat
tering of females in every direction.
Those who were quick of limb were
able TO fly over back fences and
through alleys while the droneS We're
taken in on the first installment-
About the time the fly ones thought
they were secure and mighty smart
the police called around again and took
in another inStallment.
The crivalric officer Kirwin was the
last one to visit the scene 10 gather up
the remnants of the gay outfit and
il fell to his lot to capture the slyest
one of all. John hardly knew what TO
do about il. When he ran across her
he didn't know whether it was a wo-
man or ghost. for her toilet was all
white, what there was of il which, in
truth, was not very much.
When she was taken to the cooler she
cried at the door. Whether they We're
tears that came from the heart or were
of the crocodile variety is not known,
but she wept bitterly. IT was probably
rhe first time in her career of sin that
she was ushered up against jail door.
and at such times the recollections of
the innocent past came crowdinS upon
a person.
The policemen were immovable. She
called upon her maker for the first
time in years perhaps TO save her from
the imma gionary horrors of the city
prison. but her prayer availed her
naught. She was thrown in among a
cage full of soiled doves, and they com
forted her.

A dispatch was received here last
night that Clyde Jenkins was run over
by the Ars and killed at carlton. south
of Chanute.
Clyde Jenkins was here last summer,
and played first base with Hender-
sons Pets. His parents live on south
Market street in this city.
It was not learned how he came to
fall from the train. Clyde and his
brother Ed, went 10 Fort Worth. Tex.
early in the spring to get work. and
it is said that Clyde played ball with
the Fort Worth nine, but was taken
sick and had TO quit. 1t is supposed
that he was trying to get home and
being in feeble health, he fell from the
cars.
This, however. is only a guess. and
some of the unfortunate young mans
friends suppose that on account of his
sickness he run out of money and not
being able to work, undertook to beat
his way home on the cars.
The Frisco officials simply telegraph
ed to his parents that Clyde Jenkins
had fallen from the cars and was kill
ed. They gave no particulars, and his
parents and friends can only guess as
to the cause of the accident. The re-
mains will arrive here today. when all
the particulars of the sad affair will be
learned
Those who best know younk Jenkins
say that he was a sober, industrious
young man and there is good deal of
sorrow expressed on account of the sad
accident. as well as sympathy for his
bereaved parents.

WILL BE LIGHT RECEIPTS.
Farmers will Hold Hogs to be Fed on the
New Corn CrOp.

What will be the probable receipts
of hogs for the Wichita market during
the next four Of five months, Is the
question now being discussed by COM
mission men and shippers at the Union
Stock Yards.
The general opinion seems to be that t
receipts viii be light. This opinion
seems to be backed by the fact that a
good many of the hogs marketed from
Southwestern Kansas during the spring
and early summer were fed on wheat.
A month ago when wheat began TO
show better prices farmers did not
like to feed it to hogs. The result was
that hogs were run TO market just as
soon as they would do. and the result
was a good many hogs that weighed
under 200 pounds were sold and sgaugh-
tered.
The half fat hogs and pigs were turn
ed on the pastures and are being held
for the new corn crop. The indica-
tons now are that good portion of the
corn will make good hok feed by the
Goth of the present month by feeding
both stalk and ear.
This will give the hogs a good start
by the first of August, but il the corn
makes large yield as now seems al
The Wichita daily eagle., 1895-07-03
MAKING TIE CORN CROP.
Corn was Not Suffering but the Rain Yes
terday will Help Along the Big Ears.

terday will Help Along the Big Ears.
The rain last evening will cause the
smile that has been resting upon the
farmers faces for the last two weeks to
broaden into hearty laugh.
1t rained three-quarters of an inch at
Wichita, and the Santa Fe people last
night reported a good rain along the
Wichita and Western as far west as
Mullinville. Dr. johnson says il rained in
the Panhandle of Texas and he thinks
it very probable that there were show
ers over all the intervening country
between here and the Panhandle.
1t is hard to see now how anything
can happen to prevent one OF the fin
est Sorn crops ever seen in Kansas.
The corn is maturing very rapidly and
the big ears are forming and it now
looks as if there would be one big ear
of corn on every stalk that has not two.
The farmers would rather have one
ear of corn on a stalk than two but
the two will mature all rigth if there is
plenty OF moisture.
The most encoura ging feature of the
outlook is that it is raining in the Pan
handle region Nobody ever saw hot
winds injure the corn in Kansas when
there was no drouth in that section.
The farmers are already talking that
an extraordinary laSge corn crop has
several times proven an injury TO this
section of Kansas. 1t has more than
once happened than when these big
corn crops came that there was a par
tial failure east of here This induces
farmers in the districts having light
corn crops TO sell off their stock hogs,
and hundreds of them were shipped
into this section and the result has
always been hog cholera.
1t is claimed that a.case of hog chol-
era never originated in Southern Kan
saS west of the Flint hills, and the
disease like the Norway rats, had to
be imported The rats stay but the hog
cholera when imported soon runs out,
but sometimes not until considerable
damage has been done. Some of the
farmers are already threatening to or
ganize vigilant committees to hang the
man who ships in hogs from the east

Mr.. Maddox has recently returned

Police Inquring W nat shall BE Done with
the firecracker.

The police are beginning to inquire
about their duties concerning the anti
fire cracker ordinance.
Last year when a young lady was
seriously wounded by a fire cracker on
the streets public sentiment against the
fire cracker was so pronounced that
the city council passed an ordinance
forbiding them
Since that time the ordinance has
lain dormant, there being no use of il.
When the new policemen came in
their first duty was to read and study
the ordinances. and a few of them have
remembered the ordinance against fire
crackers.
Under that ordinance any man or boy
who shoots a fire cracker within the
corporation limits can be arrested and
fined.
AS there are about 22.7o0 people in
Wichita wo intend 10 violate the or
