heterogeneous Fertilizers.-When a
soil is rich in humus it is seldom neces-
sary TO make any further application
Of heterogeneous fertilizers, and as all
heterogeneous fertilizers are very quickly
soluble, and are soon lost to the soil
by both teaching and volatilizing. they
should never be used until the crop
has made considerable growth.

The Strawberry BED.

The new strawberry plant should not
be allowed to bear fruit the first sea-
son. Pick off all fruit stems as soon
as they appear. Three methods of train
ing the strawberry are in use. The hill
system, where all runners are removed.
The narrow row. where only part of new
runners are allowed to form plants; and
the full matted row, where plants are
allowed to fill all the space, excepting a
narrow path between rows. All have
advocates and all have special merits,
depending on soil. climate, variety and
grower. The full matted row is most
used. being easiest to manage. Guard
against too many plants in small space.
They consume moisture, suffer from
droUth and produce small berries. Each
plant should have from four to six in
ches square space in which to grow and
mature its fruits.-M. A. Thayer.

Extent OF Tree Roots.-It is common
ly said that the roots Of trees extend
each way as far as their branches. But
this is very uncertain and unreliable
rule. There are trees like the chestnut
and pines. which grow in
sandy soil. which send their roots
far down into the subsoil. and have So
few roots near the surface that the plow
can be run nearly up to them. The elm
which grows best on low. wet land. has
most Of its roots near the surface. But
it can send roots down to a depth of a
three-foot tile Grain, as We once learre ed
to our cost, large elm near the upper
end of a newly-laid tile drain com
pletely filling it after two or three
years. so that the tile had all to be
taken up. The tree was cut down and
the new tile laid. with the result that
the drain suffered no further obstruc-
tion.-Ex.

ARRESTED FOR MURDER
Miles Harvey of Oklahoma Accused o.
Killing a Kansas Man.

The train that arrived in the city at
II O'Clock last night from the north
brought in two rather important per-
sonages. One was Marshal Morgan, of
Edmond, and the other was Miles Har-
Vey, an alleged Kansas murderer, and
thereby hangs a tale, says the Oklaho-
ma Times-Journal.
Miles Harvey formerly lived near
Lyons, Kansas, VIII Vincent also lived
in the same neig'hborhood. On the 18th
of the present month VIII Vincent was
murdered by several dagger thrusts
and circumstances pointed strongly
to Miles Harvey as the murderer.
1t was known that Harvey lived. or
had lived, in or near Edmund, in this
territory. The machinery of the law was
at once put in motion with a view to
his apprehension. The telegraph was
also taken into service, and a dispatch
20 Marshal Morgan was promptly for
warded. 1t recited such circumstances
connected with the murder as was nee
essary, and also gave description OF
the murderer that corresponded with
Harvey's appearance. Morgan rec
ognized the resemblance at once. and as
soon as the suspected murderer came
TO town Che lived five miles from Ed
mond) he was arrested. They came at
once to this city, and oMrgan applied
for a warrant for the formal arrest OF
his prisoner. Probate Judge Harper
was compelled to refuse the request,
on the ground that he had no authority
to issue a warrant where the crime was
committed in a state.
Being unable to accomplish his object
Marshal Morgan and his prisoner re-
turned to Edmond on the o'clock a. m.
train. He will probably be held in Gus
tody until the necessary papers for his
removal can be obtained. 1t is said TO
be an almost certain case against Har-

DOING THE RIGHT THING
Mckinley Clubs Icing Organized all Over

the City.
A good movement has been inaug-
urated by the Republicans and that is
the organiza iion Of Mckinley clubs in
every part of the city. The organiza-
tiun Of the clubs viii be by the following
gentlemen:
First ward-D. E. Fuller.
Second ward-W. S. Schell.
Third ward-W. S. Pearce.
Fourth ward-J. II. Minick, Franz;
Marks
Fifth ward-James Allison.
Sixth ward-Thomas 0. Hoss.
The movement ought to receive the
support of every Republican. 1t is
one that ought TO grow, especially in
Wichita where the great champion of
protection has so many admirers and
friends. The Mckinley clubs will be
operated on broad principles and will
not be dominated by any local cliques
or factions If any such exist. They
VIII be organized purely and simply for
the purpose of giving the Republican
support of Mckinley in Wichita that
strength which unity of action ALWAYS
insures. They are for the purpose of
bringing Republicans nearer together
In cause for which all should stand
as brothers in the interest of Ameri-
can progress and prosperity. The
workingman should be especially act
i've in the success of the clubs. Nc
kiniey is their champion and they
should stand by him. His success at
the polls in November will dignity la

IN A CRITICAL CONDITION
Vanderbilt's Physicians Hold a Council
Over Their Patient

Over Their Patient
New York, July 16.-Among the call
ers at the Vanderbilt mansion this morn
ing was exISecreatry William c. Whit
ney. When ne Lent the house fhe said
that he had not seen the patient. He
said that the rurnbiing noise caused by
the vehicles passing through Fifth av-
enue and F'ifty-seventh street had
greatly disturbed the patient during the
early morning hours. During a storm
in the night the tan bark which had
been placed in the roadway around the
house was all washed away. The doc
tors ape still in attendance and the ser
wants in the house have been cautioned
not TO make the least noise. Mr.. Van
derbRt's condition Is said to be critical
DR.. Janeway and w. D. Sloan left the
Vanderbilt residence at 11:40 O'Clock.
DR.. Janeway said that Mr. Vanderbilt's
condition was unchanged from what il
had been this morning. A consultation
of all the physicians was held at
O'Clock this afternoon and an official
bulletin was issued. An official at the
Grand Central station Is authority for
the statement that Mr.. Vanderbilt's
condition is very serious, and that the
crisis has not yet been reached. Word
was received from Chauncey VI. Depew
this morning that he would leave for
New York on Saturdays steamer.

w. S. Forty, now of Freesburg. La,
but formerly one of the best known no
tel men Of Wichita. came in yesterday
and was kept busy shaking hands with
his many friends.
Politics Is a favorite theme at the
court house these days and the occu-
pants of that institution are by no
means unanimous in their views. Not,
at least, on the silver question.
The rain OF yesterday morning ex-
tended along the entire line of the
Wichita and Western road. 1t was a
great downpour too and at some points
was badly needed. From all quarters
good reports CT rain have come.
Ms. A. c. Jobes and children return
ed from Mississippi yesterday morning,
where they have been visiting during
the past four months. Mrs. Jobes re-
ports an enjoyable time, but says Wich-
tia is home after all and that there are
few more beautiful cities or desirable
places 10 live.
Mr. Austin, contractor OF the gas
well, returned from Chickasha yester-
day, where. he pulled the tools out Of
the Rock sland 500-foot we'll at that
place. He says It rained all the way
from that town TO Wichita. Many sec
tons along the route were badly IN need
of rain especially about Pond Greek.
Everybody in Wichita will be glad TO
learn that John knight received word
yesterday through Justice Glenn that
he had been granted a pension of IS per
month and back pay dating for six
years. John was a member OF the
First Virginia regiment during the war
and seen some pretty hard service. He
was on the police force for a number
of years.
George G.. Matthews was delighted
with his rainmaking experiments and
says he has now got his system down
to such perfection that he can produce
rain at any time he sees fit. He says
that the rain at Sedgwick City and Mt
Hope was much heavier than it was
at Wichita, and that he can now prove
to the most skeptical that he has the
rain business down to a certainty.
All the boys Of the city are requested
TO meet Mr.. o. T. Simmons at the Ma
pie street bridge Saturday morning at
10 O'Clock 10 talk over the matter of
the swimming pond. Mayor Cox has
very kindly given his personal endorse
ment TO this popular movement. but
says all must have bathing suits. The
matter will be presented TO the city
council Monday night and rules govern
ing the matter made public.
The Masonic Hame committee yes
terday awarded the contract 10 FinIay
Ross for furnishing the home. They
also had the grounds surveyed and de-
cided 10 put in a sewer running from
the home to the river. 1t was found
that the sewerage would have a fall of
almost four feet in the half mile dis
stance which is sufficient TO make first
class drainage. They will also receive
bids for painting and other necessary
improvements.

In all the din and Excitement Of poll
tics and bolts the public have lost sight
OF the gas well. They have discrim.-
mated against il in a most shameful man
ner. They have treated it as a secon-
of Wichita prosperity. They have
srasped the promises of prosperity from
political conventions and bestowed not
a thought on a reality. 1t is now the
purpose TO restore the gas well as an
issue. 1t is here. The people have paid
their hard dollars for IL and they ought
to know whether 1t is still in existence
and how 1t is getting along.
To be brief the we'll is exactly where
it was two months ago. 1t Is 1900 feet
towards China and not an inch farrhe..
1t has been sleeping, 50 to speak. but
now it is about TO wake up after g4od

The mayor and council have got tired
of the we'll 1t has been to them a
source OF great annoyance and disap-
pointment. They were as anxious as
any good citizen to Sc il crowned with
success and ii is not their fault that II
has not been. Now they propose to re-
heve themselves OF the annoyance and
hx- mt int a nr.s,>r< >f for
the expenditure of the balance OF the
money and, if possible. the completion
Of the well. Mr.. Madison has made
them proposition and they are going TO
accept II. The contract will probably
be signed today. Mr.. Madison is now
filling out bond for the faithful per-
Torrance Of mis- duty. He Is to put the
well down to a depth OF 1000 feet for
specified sum not specified 10 the re-
porter If he fails TO reach 1000 feet
he will not get anything. II he sue
ceeds and does not find any valuable
deposits he will then take another 500
feet for a specified sum and IL he does
not complete It ne will get no pay. IL
he does complete it and finds nothing OF
value the superstition Is that pne ap-
preparation will have been exhausted, in
which event the we'll will be abandoned.
Mr.. Madison Will have to furnish labor
at his own expense as well also as
coal and other operating expenses. The
city engineer will still have a limited
supervision over the well. That is, he
viii have the right to examine the stun
brought out OF it so that If coal, gas or
oil is found he may know It.
Around the city hall the idea Of CIV
ing the balance of the well out on con-
tract is considered a good one and the
best means of dfsposing of the well and
its snnoyances and failures. There Is
about one-third of the $4,000 still left.
The city has reserved the right 10
abandon the work entirely at any stage

work he may have done when the city
