WILL VISIT IN WICHITA
Mr.. McGOOPty of Illinois VIII spend
Few DAYS in the City

Mr.. McGoorty, leader of the Democratic
minority in the Illinois legislature, will be
in Wichita in few days. Mr.. Goorty,
who lives in Chicago, will visit Mr.. and
Mrs. Virgins, who are now entertaining
their daughter, Mrs. McGoorty, formerly
Miss May Virgins.
The Chicago Times-HeraId has the fol-
lowing on the closing scene in the Illinois
legislature: Addressing Mr.. McGoorty,
the leader of the minority, Mr.. Hurst
said: You came among US a stranger to
most of US, but your record had 50 en-
deared you to the people of this state and
to the members Of your own party that
you were selected as the minority leader
In that position you have so conducted
yourself that you have further won the
regard of your party and 1 believe the
esteem of all members OF this house. While
you have been firm in looking after the
rights of the minority, you have conducted
yourself with such a degree of courtesy
as TO mark you a true gentleman. You
have so conserved the interests Of Dem
Ocracy that we all believe you have a
future that VIII place you high in the
councils of the party in the state and in
the nation.
On behalf Of the minority and Of Speaker
Sherman Mr.. Hurst then presented to Mr..
McGoorty a gold watch and chain as a tes-
timonial of regard. Mr.. McGoorty replied
as follows: 1 am profoundly grateful to
my colleagues for this evidence of their
friendship and esteem. To the speaker Of
this house and to the Republican and Dem
ocratic members alike, l desire 20 say that
il at any time in a moment of passion
caused by party strife, anything has been
said to wound the sensibilities Of any of
you L am exceedingly sorry. 1 believe
this house has been marked by a feeling
Of good fellowship unusual and unprece-
dented in as turbulent a body as the ordi-
nary Illinois legisiA ture.
The applause was equally loud on both
sides of the chamber when Mr.. McGoorty
concluded. and Mr.. Alien closed the Incl
dent by saying: ''On behalf Of the Re
publican side of this house 1 say. Brother
McGoorty, God bless you"

residence on Fairview avenue was de-
stroyed last winter by fire. He has sue
ceeded in getting one OF the most de-
sirable homes that could be obtained In
the location in which il was secured. The
ground was purchased by its late owner
about twenty-six years ago and held by
him until the city grew around II. Mr..
c. A. Walker was the original purchaser,
when the only house in sight of the Wal
ker lot was the home of the famous Bill
Mathewson. Mr.. Walker held the land
until ii became the central location of
some of the best homes in Wichita and
then decided to build one for himself that
would compare with those surrounding

containing nine rooms some of them fin
ished in hard wood, with hard wood floors.
