FOUND WICHITA ALL RIGHT
George III. HOIzbog Pleased With
Every Feature of Progress.

Mr.. George H. Holzbog Of JeffersonviiIe,
Ind, who had been visiting his friend,
Judge Haymaker, for several days, re-
turned yesterday to his home. Mr.. Holz-
bog is at the head Of a large carriage
factory and chain factory in Jefferson
vile and also has some interests here.
He had not been in Wichita before for
eight years, but had read of the disaster
Of the boom and supposed the city had
refrigerated very much. This opinion was
readily dispelled, however, when he
reached the city a few days ago. and
in company with Judge Hsymaker viewed
it from every side. Mr.. Holzbog was
wonderfully impressed by the solidity of
the city, its beautiful and substantial
residences, its wide-awake wholesale and
iobbing firms and its numerous enter
prises that employ labor. He went away
convinced of its Importance and future
destiny.

BOOKS ARE CLOSED
Registration Stopped at Six
O'Clock Yesterday.
TOTAL OF ONLY 4,315
Less Than Half the Number
Registered Last Year.

The registration books closed at 6
O'clock yesterday with four or five people
in the clerks Office trying to get to the
books, as many more coming up stairs,
and still others on their way down the
street to the city building for the pur-
pose of registering. All this notwith-
standing the fact that it was officially
announced for two weeks that the books
would close yesterday at 8 o'clock The
total registration is only ABS, as against
a little more than 5000 last spring. This
falling off CT nearly one-half is due partly
to the fact that there is no mayoralty
contest on and partly to a lack of inter
est among the women. Only 623 women
have registered, as against more than
5000 last year.
Following is the registration by pre-
cincts:

Hon. B. M. Read, as attorney, today
began a divorce suit in the district court
for Rio Arriba county, for Apolonia V.
de Garcia vs.. Jose D. Garcia. The couple
were married at the Catholic church at
San Juan in February 1898. In June of
the same year, according to the bill of

absolute divorce upon the ground of
abandonment and non-support and asks
to be confirmed in the title to some land
and other property that the defendant
had given her in consideration for
marrying him.
