About Pants,

Lives of poor men oft remind us,
Honest men won't stand chance,
The more we work there grows behind US,
Bigger patches on our pants.
On our pants once new and glossy.
Now are stripes of different hue.
All because our patrons linger,
And don't pay us what is due.
Then let us be up and doing,
Send your mite, however small,
Or when the rains of summer strike US,
We will have no pants at all,

THEY SPOKE THEIR MINDS
Board of Education of This City Memorial
iZe the Legislature

The following memorial was presented
to the legislature by the board of educa-
ton OF this city:
Whereas, There is now pending before
the legislature of Kansas a bill provid-
ing for state uniformity of text books:
and
Whereas. Selection Of text books for
the entire state not only fails to meet the
varying demand of school work of diff
ferent localities especially In the larger
cities, and also makes necessary the loss
of all text book property now in the
hands of patrons: and
Whereas, The board of education OF
the city of Wichita believes that the best
interests Of their schools can be best con-
served by having the option Of selecting
the books for the use in their schools
from the entire lists of books published;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the board of education
Of the city of Wichita hereby most re-
specially petition the state legislature,
through their senator and their represent
atives, to exempt cities of the first class
from the operation of this bill.

Another Delegation Come Down From

to visit Wichita and the Garfield univer-
sity building. They went to the Carey
and breakfasted and at about 10:15 start
ed for the West Side on special cars, ar
irving at the building soon after.
A competent guide went over with
them and showed them the building in
every point. Several of the younger Wis
itors had a burning desire to climb 10
the top of the tower and their desire was
grat,fied by icing shown the only route
at present availahle, and as q natural
consequence they were considerably out
of breath before trey reached the top.
Some turned back unable to go on. but
the majority who began the climb from
the fifty floor managed to get to the top.
Those of the party who voluntarily ex-
pressed an OF hliof. were very much i'm?
pressed by the building for its magnifi-
ceace and Its appointments as an edu-
cational structure Among those who Wis
tied the building were several ladies,

editor of the Kansas Sunfower; Miss Ida
Eckert Miss Ethel Cockreil, Topeka;

The press gang were as follows: A G..

At i:Se O'Clock Sunday morning FIRE
alarm called the department; TO sol
North Main street. In making the run
the hose cart from hose house No. ?. to
which was attached the famous black
team, collided with a hack containing
the early-train mail OF the Eagle, with
painful results. Mr.. r. Cuttings. chief
telegraph editor for the Eagle (anj
whose office is in the book-binding de-
partment, had charge of the mail dur
ing the temporary sickness OF Mr..
Charles Heacock. the young man who
makes the early trains) Instead OF the
regular mail cart hack had been called
into requisition. and the driver had bare
ly reached Market street when the hack
and hose cart collided. The crash was
fearful. The tongue of the carriage
struck the iron front of the drivers seat
on the hose cart, smashing the hack
tongue into splinters, and then there was
general tumbling and stumbling OF
men and horses. The driver Of the
hack. Henry c. Chitty. was thrown for
ward between his horses and one Of his
legs was fearfully lacerated upon the
splnterei end OF the broken tongue. Mr..
Cuttings. who was on the seat with the
aack-driver, was thrown with great
violence 10 the pavement. alighting under
the black team. He was rendered I'M
conscious by the fall his head having
struck with great force. The wounded
men were conveyed to the Eagle Office
temporarily Dr. Whitlock was called
Upon 10 minister 10 Mr.. Cuttings and
Mr.. Gritty was sent home on North
Lawrence avenue under the care OF DR..
Daring. Chittty's leg was split open TO
an extent that required fourteen stitches.
Mr.. Cuttings was taken 10 his rooms on
East Central avenue. Yesterday he fell
the soreness Of the bruises he had receiv-
ed by the violent contact with the pave
ment, but will doubtless be up and
around for duty in a few days.
The fire, as before stated. was al COL
North Main street, in a small grocery
store conducted by Jordan Morris. col
ored man. IL was the same house al
which an incendiary fire was extinguish-
ed some days previous. Repairs from
the first fire had been making IN the
front OF the store and the stock was
stacked in the rear portion of the room.
Some time before the fire broke out two
strangers approached policeman Zim-
norman and told him some one had en-
tered the grocery. The officer went TO
the front door and found it locked. He
then went to the back door and it was
fastened also. He had reasons TO be-
lieve there was some one inside. and
went around 70 the front door. determ-
ined 10 break in. While at the front
door the man made his escape. The
building and stock were practically
total loss, the portion not being con-
sumed being saturated and destroyed by
water.
Jack Thomas says the stock OF grocer
les was insured IN his company for $500.
The circumstances attending this and the
previous fire will call for rigid investl-
CATION TO discover the incendiary.
