WICHITA AND TOYS

Their Birth in Europe and
End in Peerless Princess.

A pleasing thought comes TO every
Wichita man this time of year--tilat
Wichita greatness is not so much in
her population as in her up-to-date
ightness in everything.
1t is pleasing thought because ii
means nat great possibilities are in the
little CITY.
For instance. in the toy line now 50
demonstrative in this city. Wichita has
ell the new and unique toys that New
York has. And there is quite a history
TO the toys. 100.
Christmastide IS pre-eminently, the sea
son of toys. ana without them the world
would seem far less attractive. the sun less
bright and the simmering snow less Sc
ductive 10 the multitude OF youngsters who
look forward 50 eagerly 10 Jhe coming
Even in the humblest homes thu toys Of
Christmas ind their way. and many a pa
-hetic story OF seIf-deniaI and economy is
oidden in the toys that parents present 10
their children at this season
The commercial side OF Christmas is
rarely considered by those who celebrate
The holiday. but it is not without its inter
asst and instruction. Toyland cannot De ere
ated in a day or night. Long weeks and
months are required to think out and
manufacture the countless little inventions
Of the trade. No sooner is Christmas over
than hundreds Of inventors and designers
begin their work for another CChristmas
Then all through the long months that in
tervene between one midwinter holiday and
the next these men labor and toll in shops
and homes to produce their ideas in Wis
lille form for the enjoyment Of a whole
world Of children.
What these designers and inventors have
been thinking about during the last year
when so many other interests have occu-
pied our time and attention Is now revealed
10 the public The large toy manufacturers
keep A. trade secrets all Of the designs
that their employees present for their con-
Sideration until few weeks before the
erentfu day when the toys are rushed
on the market Then each house sees for
the first time what al of its rivals have
been manufacturing.
There Is no telling what toys viii take
with a tickle public. One may reap a rich
harvest from a small invention, while an
other VIII lose heavily upon many more
elaborate productions. The inventors and
designers are placed very much in the
same position as contributors TO papers
and magazines. The head OF the toy man

ceives the designs and suggestions of the
inventors sketched upon paper. and ac-
cepts those which he thinks viii please the
public, and rejects all others. The &C

working models. which if successful are

Christmas toys. and the very low wages
they pay the peasants for pieceWork- en-
ables them 10 send their dolls. Noahs arks
and toys of various kinds 20 this country in
competition with the homemade articles
There has been no attempt TO compete with
the foreigners in the manufacture or these
cheap. toys in this country until recently
The only chance OF doing this successfully
was to invent machinery that would take
the place Of cheap labor. Now. up in the
woods Of Maine there are numerous nov
city mills where certain kinds OF wooden
toys are manufactured for the Christmas
trade. The wood is cut in the adjoining
forests dragged TO the big saw-nills-
sliced into appropriate lengths and widths
ard then fed TO enormous hoppers. where
ii is cut up into innumerable small TOYS
Thus thousand wooden animals suita BILE
for Noah's ark collection will be cut out
by one revolution Of a big wheel. 50 much
is saved in this way that the factories can
afford TO pay the girls who paint the ami
mails and put them together higher wages
than given abroad in the toy-shops.
But the field American manufacturers OF
Christmas toys excel in. and in which the
foreigners have no chance to compete. IS
that of making elaborate and expensive
toys. Here American inventive genius
stands pre-eminent Leaving the cheap toys
10 the foreigners our large Lighthouses

before been placed upon the market Won
derful mechanical toys. electric cars steam

are produced in an endless variety. Spe-
cIal machinery is made every year for
manufacturing these toys in numbers SUI
ficient to reduce the price to a reasOna bic
basis
Every year special novelties surprise and
ventors seize upon some particular fad or
popular subject of the day to make their
inventions take well. Thus our national
pride and wsrlke mood will be catered TO
more or less this coming Christmas. There
are elaborate toys for miniature wars. pro-
duced for the first time this season. Rep
reservations Of our favorite cruisers and
batteships that go by steam. and that
shoot off blank cartridges from miniature
guns have been made for the older chill
dren, and large armies of soldiers i'm all
the accOutrements of ar are provided on

peaceful country. War balloons that will
float above the enemy's camp are made:
elaborate forts. protected with guns and
mortars. and mines 70 be planted under
water for the guubOats Of the opposing
side. Even war-boats that will explode
and blow 10 pieces. but which can be in
geniously put together again. have come
10 make this Christmas time significant OF
war rather than of peace on earth.

Will Practice Law.

Judge G. A. Christiansen, the re-
tlring county judge, will enter ac-
lively into the practice of his probes
sion and already has large, desirable
clientage. He always took great
pride in his profession and his four
years of useful and conspicuous service
on the bench has strengthened, rather
than diminished, his ardor.
Judge Christiansen's four years
term was very eventful one in
many respects. The number of civil
actions pending and tried in his court
was greatly in excess of the number in
any previous term and the hOtly con-
tested probate cases in the probate
court were remarkable for their great
number and the issues involved. His
decisions, rulings and charges to
juries were both fair and able. and
are univ ersally regarded as such.
Not one Of his decisions was set aside
by the supreme court. We have no
doubt but what Judge Christiansen
will have large practice in all the
courts. Juneau Independent.

OBITUARY.

Lucy ID. Cole, relict of Asa Cole,
departed this life Sunday evening, at
her home on Third street, in the 81st
year of her age. Peritonitis was the
cause OF death and her final illness
was of only a weeks duration.
Mrs. Cole was an early resident of
this city, settling here with her hus-
band in 1856. Her native place was
Lyndon, Vt After first locating here
the deceased continued to make Water
town her home for ten years, her hus-
band being employed part of the time
in the flour mill of Cole, Bailey & Co.
and also conducting a flour and feed
store part of the time In 1866 the
family removed to Iowa, and upon her
husbands death in 1875 Mrs. Cole re-
turned to this city and had lived here
ever since. She was well-known
among our older residents, and was
loved and respected for her kindly
Impulses and true womanly worth.
She was in full of possession of her
faculties, and for person of her ad-
vanced years exhibited unusual activi-
ty and smartness. Mrs. Cole is sur
vived by two daughters, Mrs. Sarah
A. Brickell and Mrs. John Beynon,
both OF this city. She was also the
mother oftWO sons, one of whom lost
his life in the war and the other dy-
ing in 1880. The funeral will be
held at o'clock this afternoon from
Mrs. Brickell's residence, 312 Western
avenue. Rev. II. S. Foster. of St.

Andrew Hughes, postmaster of

THE POSTMA STERSHIP.
No Conclusion Reached Yet-Sauerher.
ing Returns to Washington.

ing Returns to Washington.
During the past week there has
been a great deal of interest, not to
say excitement, manifested over the
approaching appointm ent of Repub-
lican postmaster here. The two can
didates, Messrs. Strauss and Gruetz-
macher, and their friends and sup
porters, have been very active, and
conferences have been held with Con-
gresham Sauerh ering, but so far
nothing definite is known as to who
is to be the fortunate candidate Mr..
Sauerhering left his home yesterday
for Washington, and it is expected
that soon after his arrival there he
will announce his recommendation
Postmaster Rohr will no doubt serve
over his four years term, which ex-
pires on the 21st inst.
The most important recent occur
renee, perhaps, in the postoffice con-
test was the conference held Friday
with Congressman Sauerhering in
Milwaukee. Regarding this, Satur-
days Sentinel said: 1.-The Strauss
delegation included Jesse Stone, Judge
Harlow Pease, III. j. Strauss, Gustav
May, Charles Lynch, H. Wertheimer
and Ed. May. Mr.. Gruetzmacher was
present in person, being reinforced by
j. L. Moak a well-known jefferson
county politician. Both delegations
were given a hearing by Mr. Sauer-
herring, but no conclusion was reached.
1t was announced afterward that Mr..
Sauerhering would make no announce
ment until after January 81, when the
term of the present incumbent will
expire. The fight between the two
leading candidates has become bitter,
and some of the Watertown folk think
that neither Strauss nor Gruetzmach-
er will get the place. The name Of
W. I. Dervin has been suggested as
a compromise candidate The latter
was an employe of the Watertown
postoffice for eight years and is on
friendly terms with both factions
For some reason, however, the opinion
prevails that Mr.. Sauerhering, who
all along has been very friendly to
Gruetzmacher's aspirations, may de-
eide to appoint that gentleman, in
spite of active opposition of many of
the working Republicans of Water
town. In case of this appointment it
is said Mr. Moak will be assistant
postmaster and this is supposed to
explain Mr.. Moak's very active inter-
est in the success of Mr.. Gruetz-
macher."
The Sentinels story regarding Mr..
Dervin is myth. He has not been a
resident of this city for the past fifteen
months and we are quite certain that
he has never been considered a candi-
date for the position bV our citizens.
