FOR THE CYCLERS
THEY WANT sPRIHKLERs TO LEAVE
4 DRY PLACE TO RIDE.

Young Lady Riding Up North Market Falls
and Il Seriously Iniured-Jesse McCiees
Winds Himself Together Several Times
in an Attempt to Get Over North To-
peks, All of which Leads Him to sus-
eest q Remedy For All This TumbliaE-
Other Cities Have Made the Rule of
Leaving . Dry Place on Each Side.
A young lady went spinning up North
Market yesterday on her wheel. The
sprinkler had just preceded her and the
pavement was wet clear across. Her
wheel slipped and she was thrown heav-
lily down, injuring her ankle, maybe for
life.
Jesse McClees had just returned from
an errand on North Topeka avenue,
where after slipping all over himself sew
eral times in trying TO be law abiding
citizen, he was finally compelled TO get
on the cemen. walks in order to make
any Roadway, and was angrily spoken
to by several female pedestrians who
made sighting remarks about the nerve
Of any one who had the impudence and
gall TO ride a wheel on the sidewalk. Mr..
McClees SAYS there is not the slightest
pleasure in riding wheel on the streets
and pavements Of Wichita during the
daytime, as they are kept so wet all over
the surface that it is simply impossible
to propel your wheel at even a moderate
rate Of speed without splashing the ma
chine all over with mud and at the same
time running your clothes.
81 do not see why our sprinkling wag-
ons cannot leave dry space wide
enough for two or three wheels on each
side of the tracks. / notice that the
board Of administration OF Cincinnati
has favored the wheelmen Of that city
by adopting an amendment TO the rules
and regulations Of the water department
Of sprinkling cart. hose or other appar-
atus the entire width Of any street or
thoroughfare. The sprinkling contract
ors are forced under penalty Of losing
their contracts to leave a space at least
six feet in. width in the center of each
and every street free from water and
in good condition for bicycles. 1 think
it is only right to keep the wheels off the
walks, but before this is enforced it will
be absolutely necessary to have our
streets in proper condition for the pass
age OF the wheels. I am hardly in favor
OF the dollar tax on wheels If ii is
thrown into the general funds of the city
but if it was put into a separate fund for
the improvement of streets and pave
ments neither myself nor any other
wheelman would have the slightest objec
ton to paying in our dollar. for then We
could see where our money went and at
the same time would enjoy a spin over
the superior streets which such a tax
would give. In Chicago they tax every
wheel a dollar for a like fund, and in
Milwaukee a tax is proposed OF 81. If
Milwaukee wheelman can stand tax
Of 81, Wicita wheelmen would certainly
not grumble at dollar

PROSPEROUS WICHITA
The Farmer and the Merchant Will Share
Alike In Her Prosperity.

The last report of Dun and Bradstreet
are most significant as a sign of better
times. 1t is not only sign, but The ex-
hibit shows that they are here already.
The conditions noted are general all over
the country. This localiZes more pros
porous state OF trade in every communi-
", and Wichita is in it with the rest. 1t
would be waste Of time o go inc re-
por of sales. The columns of he Eagle
have given the exhibit of bank deposits
from time to time. The receipts and out
put OF goods show beyond question tina.
the better day has already dawned for
our wholesale and retail merchants. The
advance in the price of beef cattle and
the sudden rise in cereals explain fully
why the farmer has money to spare.
These advances are just so much money
found-not exactly wealth created, for it
has cost nothing-but money thrust into
the pocket of the farmer. These mar
gins and profis come right home to the
people of Sedgwick county. The increas-
ed volume of trade comes to Wichita,
augmenting the profits and adding to the
WEALTH utT anu puSllCSS
men.
This not only presages general prosper
ity, but it is prosperity. 1t is prosper
ity, tangible and real. Better than it's
present existence, ii has come to stay.
It is the realization Of hopes and predic-
tons which were only hopes year ago.
IT wipes out the representations Of that
class Of pesimists who last summer saw
nothing but blue ruin to the whole coun-
try. The very appearance Of things on
our streets proves this. No longer are
our streets obstructed by outdoor debat-
ing clubs, wrestling with the grave ques-
ton whether or not every man, woman
and child in Kansas should live and eat
The feeling Of unrest has given way to
one of confidence and contentment. We
realize already that the good old days
are returning-days when every indus
trious man can look forward to a surplus
days when the husbandman and the
merchant are no longer vexed with the
problem whether or not his dependent
ones shall suffer for want Of food and
raiment.
Wichlta Is fortunate IN being the CEN
ter and nucleus of the vast territory now
enjoying these rare advantages 1t is
competent to say she is not blind to ner
natural advantages. Her citizens know
as mothers can, how to utilize these adj
vantages TO their own profit They are
not in need of advice or object lessons.
for God knows they have had the latter
ad nauseum. A careful survey would
find every man at his post, with renewed
confidence and hopes. If the present
status OF trade and the great reserve Of
meat and breadstuffs now in this great
Arkansas valley are not the conditions
precedent for the sure and continued
growth of Wichita, then the Eagle is
ready to go out of the prophecy business.

the very largo meaning involved in this
proposition. The contemplation even OF
our own narrow span of life as whole
when seriously attempted seems to I'LL the
mind nearly up to the limit of its receptive
power. A million is numerical accumu
lation which, If regarded at once as
whole and In Its units, seriously battles us.
But now we arc called to heap together
millions, billions and .quadrillions without
limit and to recollect that in doing 1t we
do nothing, and however often we repeat
the process 1t is the same totes QUOTES
the scorc is undiminished. In dealing with
such conception we pass beyond our
depth. II all this may DO so, yet it seems
hard to compel every mind into tho belief
that 1t must be so, and there is something
to be said here also in favor of taking refuge
in our ignorance.
This much we may presume to say: Had
the divine revelation been intended to con.
yey to us that time Is IN inseparable Incl
