Danger of Death.
Beaumont. Texas. April II BY some
means a report reached Houston yester-
day that Congressman Cooper was dan
gerously i'll at his home in this city; in
fact. 1t was reported and published that
he was in a dying condition. The author
ity for the report was said to be tele-
gram from Beaumont to that effect. Tha
message was somewhat exaggerated by
frequent exchanges and Mr. Cooper 4
friends in Houston were consequently
much alarmed. and unnecessarily so. MI
Cooper's condition at noon today was lit

had cooled to almost normal and he was

TURNER TORTURED TO DEATH
Mexicans Show No Respect for the
American Flag.


AS details of the death Of Ed Turner,
his Imprisonment and the usual way in
which wrecks occur or are brought about
in Mexico the more outrageous ne mat
ter appears to Americans and especially
Turner's friends.
Carl Clark Of Emporia, an old-time
friend OF Engineer Charles Weddle OF
Wellington, says the Journal, has just
returned from Old Mexico, where he
had been railroading. He tells a terrible
tale Of the way railroad men are treated
by the Mexican aIcaldes. He knows about
fifteen raiIroaders who have been con-
fined from four to twelve months in Jail
and can get no trial, the answer from
day to day being 'Manana," which means
tomorrow. If a Mexican is run over and
killed by q train the engineer and con-
ductor are both held responsible for the
killing and are thrown into a filthy YER
min-infested unventiiated pen, with a
lot Of lousy Mexicans, where they may
DE kept for months without trial. The
poems get drunk and lie down on the
track. apparently thinking that the train
will turn oct of the road and r. around
them like a wagon. Mexican brakemen
are employed, and if a conductor, in the
effort to get one Of them to work should
strike him with his hand he would go to
jail-but the conductor is allowed to
kick them as much as he pleases. Mr.
Clark had the misfortune a few weeks
ago to be the engineer when a runaway
car killed a couple of poems who were
stealing a ride, and made his escape by
hiding for three days in the locker Of a
caboose in which conductor coming
north smuggled him through There is
good money for conductors and engineers
down there. but the high-handed methods
Of the Mexican local government keeps
Americans out of the country. Mr.. Clark
says that they do not interfere with En-
glishmen or Germans and that many
Americans are protecting themselves by
appealing to the English flag. He says
the Mexicans have no respect for the
American flag and boast that If Texas
were taken out of the union they could
whip the whole country. Appeals to the
American consul do no good. Mr.. Clark
knew the circumstances of the death of
Engineer Turner, formerly of Wichita,
who died in prison after nine months con-
finement in Mexican Jail without trial.
Turner died from exposure to the filth
and vermin of one Of the vilest holes
that ever surrounded a prisoner.

MILLINERY OPENING
OF George Times d Co.'s Yesterday a
Brilliant Affair.

The first day of the spring millinery
opening found Geo. Innes &, Co.'S large,
elegant store in brilliant array, lfrom the
beautiful display windows to the top
floor. Throughout every department
spring goods was in evidence. The mil
linery department was especially attrac-
tive, a galaxy where beautiful and novel
tints combined, decorated with palms,
ferns and flowers. and the newest crea-
tions in the millinery world, exquisitely
beautiful flowers, which could not be dis
tinguished from the natural flowers used
in the department decorations. Their
north window is trimmed to represent the
millinery department, and is one of the
most artistic and attractive millinery win
dows shown this spring in Wichita The
design represents a beautiful garden with
Easter lilies, roses and beautiful flowers
in full bloom, enclosed with an iron fence,
painted black, in which are two large,
white arches In each stands lady
dressed in spring attire, and of course
their new spring hats are most cOnspicU-

AN EXTRA TRAIN
Run in on Rock Island Last
Night to Bring
STREET CAR MATERIAL
Boiler Expert Missing and
Substitute Sent.

The construction OF the street car line
Is owing along 50 fast that it is almost
impossible to keep track Of all the new
things. The track on North Main street
was finished ON to Central yesterday, that
is, all except replacing the paving stone,
which is very slow work. Even more
than this might have been done had it
not been that the switches and cross
over for the park line has to be put in
at Central, and the material for this
special work yesterday had not arrived
at noon, when it was expected. Super
intendent Nelson had the Rock Island
people send a tracer out after the car,
and it was found to be at Harrington.
The railroad, however, ran a special
train, which arrived here with the car
at 1880 this morning. Mr.. Morrison ex-
poets that it will take all day TO put
in the cross-over track and the switches.
Yesterday morning the work Of putting
up new trolley system on Topeka ave-
nue. began. The new wire will be sus-
pended in the same manner as the old
one now is, that is, the plan will be
the same, not the way in which it is
carried out. Everything will be entirely
new. The poles are being set 100 feet
apart. They are very smooth, straight
poles and, erected, will be painted white.
The span wires will be of IA inch
stranded wire, and instead of being
wrapped around the pole a few times,
will be fastened with an eye-bolt, which
will be put through the poles for that
purpose. The trolley wire itself will be
No. 90 in size and will be hung eighteen
feet above the rails. The hangers are of
the standard pattern, and will be bent
around the wire instead Of soldered to
it. The poles that are now UP have quite
a little lean away from the track, but
Mr. Williams who has charge of this
work, says that the span wires will be
stretched so tight that they will be
pulled over straight.
Last night Mr. John Couser, a boiler
expert from the factory where the new
boilers were made, arrived, and will this
morning commence installing the bat
terry. The work on the boilers has been
very much delayed on account OF a
rather curious incident. On the 18th Of
this month the boiler company started
a. man out here to set up these boilers,
but the fellow has never showed up,
neither has he ever informed the COM
pany as to his whereabouts. They tried
TO find him and couldn't, so gave it up
and sent another man. The last ship
ment of boiler material arrived yester-
day. 1t was one of the smokestacks and
hood. This stuff was loaded in a Balti-
more and Ohio coal car. The peculiar
thing about this car was that it was
made entirely of steel. There is not a bit
of wood about It,
