Ike DEAM,S CATILE
Took Eight Hundred to His Farm
Yesterday.


Friday afternoon the veteran cattle
man and ranchman, Ike DEAN, arrived
in the city with eighteen car loads Of
Alabama native cattle. They were at
once taken to the Union Stock yards, I'M
loaded and fed. Yesterday afternoon they
were taken from the pens and driven out
of the yards and down through the heart
Of the city on their way to Mr.. DEAN 8
farm. nine miles southwest of town.
1t was a novel. and in this day an IN
usual sight and attracted the interested
attention of hundreds of citizens when
they reached Douglas avenue. There were
about a thousand of the animals includ-
ing cows steers, heifers and calves. This
undertaking is something of an innova-
ton in Kansas stockraising, and il is an
experiment importing southern stock to
this state and feeding them and fattening
here for the market. They were all in fine
condition upon their arrival and stood
the long journey very well. Several old
timers who have seen similar scenes in
the palmy days remarked that this large
drove going through the street remind
ed them of old times. only they were tame
cattle instead of wild range animals. Six
drivers handled them all safely. Mr..
Dean is one of the prominent and success
full cattle men of the southwest and this
| new experiment viii be watched with
great interest by other stockmen and fed
ers.

visited the battle field of Chackamauga

TWELVE CARS BUILT
w. Q. Church Arrives From
the East.
ALL IN DUE TIME
New Street Railway Will Be
Put in Shape.

W. @. Church, local manager of the
new street railway arrived in Wichita
yesterday from his trip to Boston. He
says that everything is in good shape
and that the company will attend to the
construction and re-equipment in due
time.
Twelve of the new cars ordered have
been built and are standing in the St
Louis shops ready for the finishing touch
es and the others are in course OF con-
struction The matter of attaching the
ties on Oak street did not concern the
new company Mr.. Church says, that be-
ing the contractors look out.
The other directors concerned in the
new company will arrive here shortly
when everything will be turnedtloose and
the road built and put in operation as
soon as large force of men can do it.
Mr. Church does not seem exercised at
the delay, but says building a street rail-
way is not matter Of few days work,
but a considerable undertaking. The
new engines and boilers for the power
house are being built in Chicago and in
fact everything that is necessary TO the
construction of the road is being done.

AGAINST STAMP COMPANIES

The trading stamp coupon companies
who have done business in New Haven
Connecticut, during the past year have at
last aroused the hostility Of the New
Haven merchants into a concert of action
In the last twelve months they have col
lected from the merchants $104,000-simply
a bonus, a holdup. The contract which
they entered into compelled them to use
the stamps. After holding several rous-
ing meetings, denouncing the stamp men
in radical terms-that their stamps were
an unmitigated nuisance; they were of no
business utility; that the company was
no better than swindlers; that per cent
profit was the average net profit of a
conservatively managed concern; that in
order to save themselves they were COM
PEELED at times to add to and take ad-
vantage of their customers in order to
compete with their competitors not deal
ing in stamps. Most of the contracts ex-
pired January /, the balance April l.
They have entered into compact not to
go into the stamp business again. One
Of the merchants said IN speech, that he
had been a living, walking lie for twelve
months: that he was ashamed to look his
customers in the eye. In Kansas City
there were two or three companies en-
gagged in it. One of the companies, after
selling the merchants a lot of stamTs
packed their traps of cheap stuff, plated
ware uueenswarc, and moved. When a
man or woman calls at your house to talk
stamps to you, tell them to leave the
premises. 1t will save you time and
money and possibly a trip to court as a
witness-or something worse.
