CHILDREN'S HOME WORK
Entertainment to BE Given at the
Auditorium.

Apropos to the entertainment at the
Auditorium this evening for the benefit
of the Children's Home, we publish a
beautiful poem from the pen of the Rev.
John L. Won Herrlich. 1t crystalizes in
permanent form an actual fact in the
criminal history of Paris and gives some
idea of the grand work for the children
of Wichita done by the noble women con-
nected with one of themost worthy chart
ties in this city. The care and training
of the poor little ones who are fatherless
or motherless or who would be without
those influences for good were it not for
this most excellent charity, the Chill
dren's Home.
MILLAIS' FALLEN ANGEL.
CBy Rev. John F. Won Herrlich)
In glorious Versailles, one bright sum-
mer's day,
When the birds sang their songs mid the
sunshine and spray,
And the buds and sweet flowers shed their
dainty perfume,
On that bright, happy morning in beauti-
That greatest of painters. the famous
Millais.
Stopped to look with delight on some chill
dren at play.
In the group was a child with a wonderful
face,
Which seemed to reveal every spiritual
grace,
With hair of spun gold and with eyes Of
deep blue,
And the look of a cherub so pure and so
"Ah. madam, your child my angel shall
be,
For there incarnated an angel Sect
And the proud. happy mother brought her
sweet child each day.
Till the face graced the canvas OF gifted
Millais.
Nearly forty long years had come and
When through that grim prison the dingy
La Soune
StrolIed that king Of the brush. that mas
ter of art.
While a cloud seemed to rest on his great,
tender heart.
When suddenly, through the bars OF a
Peered a face like the face of demon in
Hell.
It was stamped with its history of sin and
disgrace,
And he longed upon canvas those features
IAN Paris shall see it-what evil hath
wrought"
Counterpart to my angel, the great artist
thought:
derful brush,
Where the clanking OF chains only broke
the strange hush.
He patiently painted and heard the
strange tale.
OF the criminal before him, so sin-seared
When. AMAZING to tell. the knowledge
That the angel and demon were one and
the same.

LLOYD MILLER ARRESTED
For Trying to Dispose of stolen Prop
erty to Second Hand Man.

lloyd Miller a boy OF Is, was arrested
yesterday afternoon by an officer for try
ing to dispose OF three blankets which
had been stolen from a Pullman sleeper
sidetracked in the Santa Fe yards. Young
Miller was trying to sell the blankets to a
second hand store on East Douglas ave-
nue.. He claims that a negro boy of
about his own size and age gave them to
him. He did not know the boys name,
only that he is called Tuck or "Toots. .
He acknowledged last night that he sup
posed the negro boy had stolen them.
They were TO divide the receipts. He will
probably be sent to the Reform school,

point Mr.. Kirby was thrown from his
wagon and received deep cut just above
the right eye. He sustained several
bruises but they were not serious. Just
after Mr.. Kirby was thrown out one of
the horses stumbled but soon regained his
feet and both of them flew down the
street. They were caught below the
Wichita and Western track. The wagon
was completely demolished. Mr.. Kirby
was taken to DR.. Caves Office, where his
wounds were dressed. From there he was
taken in the patrol wagon TO the resi-
'dence of his nephew, Mr.. John Ferriter,
at 1915 Park Place. He was resting easy
last night and will soon be able to go TO

BLAZE FINED TEN DOLLARS
without Any Cause He Assaults VIII
liam Garrett.

Yesterday afternoon as William Garrett
was coming out of Ed Goulds resort on
East Douglas avenue Immediately across
from the Carey, Albert Blaze struck him
a blow in the face which knocked him
to the pavement. A small artery of the
nose was cut and the blood flowed in pro-
fusion. Blaze would give no reason for
assaulting Garrett and the latter claimed
that he didn't know Blaze. Officers
Campbell and Fox arrested Blaze and
took him to the station, where he pleaded
guilty to assault and was fined So There
seems TO be a little mystery surrounding
the trouble as witnesses assert that the
two men had trouble in the morning but
at that time did not come to blows.
Blaze is a cigar maker by trade but dur
ing the two months that he has been here
ne has not worked very much.

ROBBED 4 TILL
 IN 4 SALOON
John Donovan Threatens to Brain the Bartender and
 Chases Him Out.
He Has Been Arrested on Several Occasions, but Manages to "Reat"
 the Gases.

John Donovan, man of 26, has a pe- culiar faculty of getting himself arrested on various charges and always having the good fortune to beat the cases by some of the methods so well known to the Police Judges. Yesterday morning he was again arrested, and as the charge against him is robbery, 1t will be interesting to watch whether his usual good fortune will stick to him on the present occaSlon
 About I o'clock he entered the grocery and saloon of M. B. Cavanaugh, corner of Bryant and Zoe streets, in an lntoXl- cated condition. He asked the bartender, James McCaffery, for glass or whisky. McCaffery poured out a glass, and Dono- van got angry because it was not full enough He threw the whisky at McCaf- fiery and seiZing two bottles that were on the counter, threatened to brain 1hc- Caffery with them. and chased him out of the saloon. McCaffery watched him through the door, and saw him open the till and take out s2. all the money that was in it.
 about an hour later, McCaffery told nm of what had occurred, and Cavanaugh hurried to the Southern police station and reported the robbery. Policemen w: H Harrison and H. Heinz were detailed on the case, and they found Donovan Tn bed in his house at 16 Zoe street. They made him get out of bed with their aS- sistance and after he. ping him to put on his clothes they took him to the Clty Prison, where a charge of robbery was booked against him.
 Donovan Is well connected, but has been a source of trouble for years to his reia- tives and friends, who have always sue ceeded in getting him out of his scrapes

When a horse does not appear to
thrive as he should on his food, and
the most careful observation fails to
account for his condition, it is wise to
have his teeth carefully examined, es-
pecially the back jaw teeth or molars.
An irregularity of these is often the
unsupported source of the evil The
molars occasionally wear irregularly;
sometimes the upper border overlap
ping the external surface of the lower,
while the internal surface of the lower
rises to a corresponding height within
the mouth. In such cases sharp points
are found where the wear has been
slightest, and these roughnesses LAGER

GEESE ARE STUPID.
According to an Old POuItryman The
Can't stand "a RainStOrm
when Thirsty.

Geese are peculiar" said an old
ket. Put them out in rainstorm
when they have a good thirst on and
they are liable TO die. About ten years
ago l was engaged by firm to go out
through the west and buy live geese
and chickens. l bought ten car loads,
put them in crates and started east,
The geese were in the crates nearest
the floor of the open car-that's the
regular way TO ship them-and on top
of them were piled the chicken crates.
1--WE got about ten miles from ST. Jo-
soph, Mo-, when the load on one of the
cars sagged. and the whole pile of
crates was spilled on the side of the
track. In piling the crates on again
the geese were placed on top. l knew
' was taking chances, because a rain
storm meant death to the geese, but
there didn't seem to be any storm in
sight, and 1 thought we could make
st. Joseph and shift the load there.
The train had only gone a short dis
lance when a storm came up so sud-
denly that the rain was falling almost
a. soon as the clouds were noticed.
The geese had been without water for
some hours, and the moment they felt
the rain they were stretching their
necks through the openings between
the Stats and holding their bills open
to catch the drops. Well, got an old
coat and laid it over as many of the
crates as it would cover, so as to save
as many as possible. Then | got a
switch and tried to force the others to
keep their heads, inside the crates.
They didn't mind the switch very
much, and l had to give each one four
or five good hits before it would pull in
its head, and when l started on a new
head the old one would pop up again.
When we got into St. Joseph it was
still raining. and every goose in the
top crates with the exception of those
under the coat was dead. Whether
they died from drinking too much or
from drinking while their necks were
II an unnatural position l do not
know, but every man who has handled
live geese knows that thirsty goose
in rainstorm in crate is as good as
dead. I've never told of this peculiar
ity about geese without being doubted.

isn't true. IN. Y. Sun.

Burglar and Oranc-OutanF.

Some two years ago a retired officer
of the merchant service, living in the
Rue d'Alesia, Paris, NJ. Duchesne,
brought home an orang-outang from
Borneo. Since growing to its full size
the brute is a terror to the neighbors.
Its master won't hear of its being
chained up, contenting himself with
shutting the animal in his bedroom
before going out. This was done one
day, but unfortunately for him Nico-
las Bargeve, alias ~ he Devourer,' had
determined to make a professional call
on NJ. Duchesne's apartment with in
tent to burgle. Now, as this illus
trious character had only completed
three days at large after completing
his ninth term of imprisonment, he
was naturally unaware that such a pet
as the orang-outang was tolerated in
these particular rooms. Consequently,
when the burglar was suddenly
pounced upon by two hairy paws. he
was somewhat surprised, and his
screams soon brought help, with the
result that N. Bargeve was drawn out
of the room by his feet, in a very ig-
nominous fashion. He was taken to
the infirmary, and it is reported that
he has gone mad and now imagines
himself to have been changed into an
ape.-Paris Cor. London Post.
