over the I. & c. y.
This train, with the sleeper arrives in
Wichita at $50 p. m. and reaches San
Antonio at 9:58 a. m. on the second day.
Il makes an excellent train for those who
desire sleeping car accommodations TO
Oklahoma points and the south.
The through sleeper service 70 the City
Of Mexico from Kansas City IS probably
the longest in the world, The Pullman is
carried from Kansas City to FL Paso over
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and

Mexican Central The train leaves Kan
sas City bearing this sleeper. al 2:35 p. m.

SMYTH PEOPLE BUY
Secure Desirable Building Site
Next to McCormiCk'S
FOR LARGE ST0REH0USE
Which They VIII Erect at
Sons Future Time.

Immediately following the big deal Of
the Mccormick people for the lots at the
corner Of Douglas avenue and Santa Fe
street, on which they win erect their
large building, comes the investment OF
the smyth & Sons Implement company.
who yesterday purchased two lots just
back Of the Mccormick site, and extend
ing the entire length of ground between
the Santa Fe and Rock Island tracks.
The deal was in reality closed at about
the time the Mccormick deal was made.
because smyth & Sons realized that the
value Of the ground would at once ad-
vance as soon as the Mccormick people
secured their site
One OF the firm was asked by a report
er for the Eagle yesterday as TO whether
they would build on the lots. and said:
We intend 10 build. Of course. some
time, but not this year. and probably not
next year. The site was secured at this
time because We thought the price
reasonable and considerably lower than
1t would be after the Mccormick people
begin to build. We knew We should want
the lots TO build upon sometime in the
future. The site will be an admirable
one for our warehouse, being situated as
It IS, On practically four railroads When
We build we shall erect a building the
entire length OF the ground, which would
then face on two streets, and be adjacen.

ing Hard Luck story.

Lille Harvey, a girl who seems TO have
, allowed her good name 70 be bedraggled
in the mire Of sin and folly, was at the
police station yesterday seeking aid. She
said she had nothing 70 eat and wanted
to be sent back TO her fathers house at
Red Cloud, Nebraska, from which place
she claims TO have run away with an
alleged gambler named Claud Barnes,
while the latter was working that sec
ton last summer with a covered wagon.
She told one Of the policemen that she
had been brought here and deserted by
Barnes. Il was afterwards learned that
she had been left at the Rescue Home, a
few days ago, and that Barnes would no
longer care for he-, although he had
promised one Of the officers that he would
send her back to her folks right away.
He had not done so yesterday, and the
police were given orders to arrest Barnes
II he did not send her away, as the city
nor the county viii not be bothered with
persons brought here in the manner in
which the Harvey girl was brought The
girl had secured a room over "a North
Main street, but said she could not get
anything TO eat When seen after her
visit 10 the police station, Lille tried 10
shield her friend Barnes, and said that
it was not Barnes who brought her TO
Wichita, but another man. She said she
had only met Barnes since she came hare.
If this story is true. the girl is evidently
trying TO play q honkatonk game on the
city administration in order to get her
fare paid back to Nebraska
