destroy the Spanish fleet before its re- enforcement arrives, while affording protection to the cities along the coast and maintaining an effective blockade of the Cuban ports. In view of the small number of effective vessels at the disposal of the Government, the task is most difficult, and the board thoroughly appreciates this fact
 There will be junction tomorrow of the fleets under command of Rear Ad- miral Sampson and Commodore Schley, so that by tomorrow night an effective force, which will be commanded by the former officer will include the battle ships Iowa, Indiana Massachusetts and Texas, and the armored cruisers New York and Brooklyn.
 This fleet will be coaled and fully am- munitioned, and on account of it's com- partively slow speed. will have to be stationed at some central point in or der that it may maintain the blockade and provide the coast with ample pro- lection.
 The President has impressed upon the naval authorities the absolute neces- sity of maintaining the blockade for the reason that once 1t is broken a thousand international questions will arise which will cause the United States a great deal of embarrassment.

CYCLERS ARE SORE
Privilege OF Using Sidewalks While
Mud LasfS AnnrecinfRd

Get off the walk, confound you"
Go to the dickens. will you? D'yeh
see that mud out there?"
Whats the mud got to do with It? You
amt got no business on this here walk
with that bicycle"
"Oh, amt Ell? Well, that's news TO me.
I'm goin' to ride on it just the same If
you'll watch you'll see me, too-under-
stand?"
A wheelman and one that wasn't, were
carrying on the conversation over on the
West Side. The rain of last night mad
rendered the street simply muddy, and
this fact was hailed with delight by those
who nave been riding wheels in the dust
for the past few days, since the first Of
the month, when the order was given the
police to enforce the bicycle ordinance
One rider was heard to remark: Gosh
but 1 feel independent" as he leisurely
rolled by a copper swinging his stick upon
his index finger and trying to think of
some tune to whistle in an endeavor to
quiet his mind as to whether he was do
ing his full duty in not stopping the
wheelman who was rolling away in the
distance.
There is no end OF comment upon the
enforcement OF the ordinance concerning
cyclists. There Is low growl OF dissat-
isfaction among those who ride. who
claim that all the legislation 50 far has
been to their disadvantage. The claim is
made that since being no longer allowed
to ride upon the walks, the cyclist takes
his chances with everything else. Wagons.
buggies and carriages are heavier. and
bx-I L.. -
a fragile machine, and very few turn out
OF the beaten track TO allow a wheel TO
pass. Tue wheels wear a smooth track
between the rails OF the street railway.
and when the first wet spell comes along
every vehicle makes direct for tslat
smooth and comparatively dry streak. and
proceed 10 cuc i, up. and when It again
becomes dry enough TO be ridden upon IL
is too rough % allow it. SO another place
must be found as best K may.
The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1898-09-07

Wheelmen are claiming that upon the
outskirts Of the city there are long
stretches of cinder walk, and some
cement, that are never at any time made
use OF by pedestrians, and that in the
case of cinder walks. a narrow strip in
the center of the walk made by wheels
passing to and fro is all that is in sight,
the outer parts having grown UP in weeds
The claim is also being made That in
some parts of the city the walk is used
almost exclusively by the children, es-
pecially Of an evening, when they get out
their wheels and spend their time riding
up and down the walks in their own
neighbornood. Many of these walks, it
is said, are used for nothing else. pedes-
TRAN being an exception.
There is a movement in some parts of
the city toward inducing the city council
in some manner to repeal the ordinance
except as regards the principal streets.
Just what course will be taken cannot
be stated as yet, but the wheelmen seem
to be thoroughly dissatisfied and con-
certed move of some kind may be eX-
pected

STREET CARS
Two Weeks Has Expired and Moth
ing Has Been Done.

''The jig's all up, guess" said Mayor
Ross yesterday, when queried about the
street car proposition.
THE council gave Mr.. Church two
weeks to get his 500 when the council
agreed TO renew his franchise. The time
expired on Monday"
When asked what would be done now
that it seemed apparent that the Church
people could not carry out the contract,
he said that he did not know.
Mr.. W. @. Church. manager Of the road,
was seen. He stated that It looked ex-
ceedingly doubtful. He understood that
Hirsch & Co. were amply able to carry
out any contracts that they made and he
was at a loss to know how the deal fell
through. However, hope still glimmered,
and he was hoping against adverse re-
ports. He had not received any word
for two days

MUSIC AND DRAM
THE WICHITA LYCEUM.

w Will A LII OE I W.
Judging from the remarks made by the
many friends of the Lyceum, the course
to be given this season will give universal
satisfaction. Many express themselves as
delighted with the lectures and entertain
ments to be given. and feel that they are
to be congratulated upon having the op-
portunty to hear and see these people who
are masters in their special lines Of work
Cities the size of Wichita are unable to
secure such excellent talent for SO small
a sum Of money, unless they ar organized
into lecture course. or have adopted some
similar plan.
1t is said of Russell H. Conwell that be
never writes line to advertise himself,
and indeed he needs no advertising in any
intelligent community, beyond a mere an
nouncement. Those who attend his lee
ture will probably be helping some poor
boy to get an education for the receipts

cate boys who are unable to pay for their
schooling. He himself was a poor boy,

Obituary.

On the 9th Of August Miss Alpha Gallo
way passed from earth 10 her reward Her
life was too well known in Wichita to
demand any details. Hers was an unself-
.sh, beautiful life. She was an affection
ate daughter, a generous friend, a must
clan OF great ability. In the young LIE
that has just gone out from this life to
enter upon her work in eternity was
strangely blended the love OF the beauti-
ful In nature the friend of the oppressed.
Although often censured. she claimed the
right to think and act for herself in her
relations with her fellow-man, and this
will comfort the bereaved mother in her
deep affection that she was true to her
sense Of right and justice.
While her family and many friends be-
moan their loss here she rejoices in the
"City of Celestial Music"
Mrs. Galloway and family desire TO
thank the friends, one and all, for the
beautiful flowers and all that administer
ed TO them in their sad bereavement.
