STRAWBERRIES
ARE COMING INTO WICHITA
BY the Carload Two and Three Times
aDay.

Probably 1000 crates of Strawberries
have come into Wichita IN the last three
days. There are simply loads and car
loads. Yesterday morning the Frisco train
was nearly two hours late, simply having
waited to load up Strawberries which are
coming in from Arkansas and southwest
Missouri. Saturday and Sunday 1900 crates
were transferred here t0r Denver and
western points. The 1900 crates beside
have been for Wichita and tributary points
though most Of them remain here. The
berry has turlbled from 10 cents a box
a week ago, to six for a quarter, and the
rush has just commenced. Every train
over ten Frisco from Joplin AMI Monet
has an extra car loaded with berries.
There will be a greater rush this week.
Agent Stevens and his men of the Wells
Fargo are sitting up nights to handle the
business. Everybody can eat the delicious
fruit. Sunday Mr. J. C. Casey ate six
boxes during the day. Sam Hess ate
seven and Colonel Toler took a crate home
with him, though he refuses to affirm just
how many he ate. Within an hour from
) to 6. at least forty persons carrying
Strawberries, passed the corner of Main
and Douglas. Every CONNECTION stand and
grocery window is piled full Of straw
berries and every uptown pedestrian has
his arm full. Wichita is in the midst of
a strawberry festival

ENOCHFILESPROTEST
Wants the City Not TO Pay
Judge Mitchell
SALARY AT TER APRIL 1ST
Keenan, Gets the Contract for
Compiling Ordinances.

At the meeting OF the city council last
night E. Z. Enoch filed protest against
the city paying any salary TO Judge
Mitchell after April !. His protest was
written and based on the fact that a quo
warranto suit was now pending in the
district court to Dust Mitchell and he
wanted to protest against the payment
of any furthec salary until the matter
was settled.
Chairman Sutton OF the judiciary COM
mittee reported on the contract made for
compilation of The city ordinances. He
said that last week the majority OF the
committee had awarded the contract TO
Thomas Wilson for 500 over q bid by
Judge Keenen for S4oo. but that this was
done through some misunderstanding Il
being the idea Of the committee that Mr.
Keenan, had not bid upon the completed
work which the committee contemplated
and which the council mad asked. When
it was known that both men had agreed
TO do the same work the matter was re-
considered. Mr.. Sutton read a letter
from Mr.. Wilson Withdrawing his bid.
Mr.. Wilson said that his bid Of 800 was
made an estimate upon the cost of work
formerly done in that line. He said that
the council had twice before made an
order for a compilation OF the city ord.n-
ances in 1885 and lsSS. For the three years
from 1885 to 1855 there accumulated PSI
ordinances, for which the compilers were
paid 1915 in two warrants. one Of 500 and
one of s3l5. Since 1883 about 1851 ordin-
ances had accumulated and he figured
that if S515 was a reasonable fee for the
compilation Of 2S4 ordinances he thought
500 for the compilation of 1851 ordinances
was more than reasonable But seeing
that he as underbid and knowing that
the committee was pledged by the oath
of public Office 10 best conserve public
interests by getting as much value re-
ceived for the money as possible, ne with
drew his bid.
The committee reported that a contract
had been signed with Judge keenan, for
s4S5 and he was given till the first of oc-
tober to complete the work.
A motion was also made to instruct the
clerk to advertise for bids for printing
the compilation.
City Attorney Helm reported that he
had commenced suit in the district court
to annul the franchise Of the Church
Street Railway company.
A petition was submitted asking that
the city scales now on Oak at the en-
trance to the city park be removed to
Walnut and Eighth, and a motion to
grant the petition followed.

HAVE SPECIAL MAIL SERVICE
Mr. Fred DOid tIIakes Novel and
Practicable Change

A new departure has been inaugurated
at the DoId packing plant which Will
materially expedite business and add one
more feature TO the already perfection
methods which have so thoroughly dlsci-
plined this institution.
The new movement is a private mail
service from the plant 10 the postoffice,
rendered necessary by the growing bust
ness and the consequent additional cor
respondence. For a year past the DoId
plant has had special service for its mail
matter, employing carriers, clerks, and
stenographers to handle the daily mail
matter. Lately, however, the unreliable
street car service has considerably annoy
ed the system instituted, and yesterday
the management bought fast, weH-bred
horse for this special and exclusive de-
partment. There viii be five trips a day
to and from the government building
and Twenty-irst street. Fred Wagner
will be the rider and viii be equipped
with a regulation mail pouch and give all
his time 10 the gathering of the incoming
mail, the distribution of it to the several
heads Of departments, and returning the
answers to the outgoing mails. The ex-
press business and rush orders for
prompt return have grown very rapidly
the past year, and there is one inviolable
rule about the house insisted by the
management, and that IS prompt atten-
ton to mail orders. General Manager
Fred Dold is that enterprising and pro-,
gressive that he is always on the look
out for any scheme that will add TO the
efficiency Of his force, the staff of en-
ployes or the facilities for vigorously at
tending to the calls Of the large and
growing trade This last movement is OF
no little importance, since they now have
their ownm all service and are dependent
on neither street cars or other uncertain
happenings. This insures the best of at
tention. and very quickly. to the wants
Of their customers, and will eb appreci-
ated by the large list of merchants in the
country who are regular pa

Judge Kirk spoke of him as perfect
neighbor and gentleman, deserving of the
highest rewards paid anywhere to devo-
ton 10 duty
The occasion was most impressive.
The original manuscript of Mr.. Tuttle's
read by DR.. Pratt was a chara cttristic
production. beginning with prehistoric
days it traced the various agencies by
which industry has been enslaved and
idleness exalted. Condemned the limited
supply Of money and foreign intervention

Washington, Feb. 23.-A satisfac-
tory agreement has been reached with
the minority in respect to the army
bill. So it is believed
the danger of an extra session is prac-
ticaliy removed. 1t is understood the
compromise saves the leading features
of the Hull bill compromise, based on
an army of 100, 600, of whom 1000
will be known as the provisional army,

POPE AND THE PAULISTS.
Translation OF Leo's Letter to Cardinal
Gibbons Given Out.

Baltimore. Feb. 23.-The approved
translation of the pope's letter to
Cardinal Gibbons. touching the con-
troversy over the published life of
Father Hecker. founder of the society
of Paulists, a distinctly American
order, was made public here. The
pope doesn't object to the formation
of such bodies. but suggests that they
be under the authority of the bishop,
and says as the Paulists were not re-
quired to take any vows they have 70
right to set themselves above religious
orders.
