Way to Seeming Evil
A matter that has attracted the at
tention of all outdoor students for
ages, and which still remains unset
tied, is the fact that. although the
farmer wages a constant warfare on
weeds in order that his crops may
grow, the food-bearing plants often
fail to seed fruition. but the weeds
never. The more noxious the
plant the more certain 1t is
to flourish, says New England
writer. What is true OF the plant
world is true of bird and mammal life.
The English sparrows, which nearly
every one hates. increase at the rate
of millions yearly, in spite of rigid
winters and bounty laws, while the
birds which add the beauty OF color
and song to outdoor life are tending to-
ward extinction. The frost that i'm
prisons the grouse, by forming a crust
over the snowbank where he has
sought shelter. at the same time pro-
tects the field mouse pest from his
natural enemies. The same crust bears
up the wolf, while it practically i'm
prisons the deer. Insect parasites kill
the game birds. while the owl seems
to enjoy their companionship and
cares not how thickly they swarm
within the cover of his plumase. The
crows fly over morning and evening
from roosting to feeding place and re-
turn in flocks as great as those OF a
century ago. The ducks and geese re-
turn from the south spring after spring
with constantly thinning ranks. AS
the eastern writer puts 1t, the chances
are that a hundred years hence. in the
dearth Of game, the leading sportsmen
will be wrangling over the merits of
their skunk dogs and Dragging of
their bags of crows and sparrows.

CHAPTER TX:

Bombay at last!
"Oh. the terrible strain Of those
nights and days since the garrison of
Rawal Pindi had bidden the newly
married pair God speed" and that
journey had begun which should have
been one ll-too-swiftly-passing stream
of happiness. and held nothing but the
long-drawn-out agony Of tortured
hours-hours spent together in closest
companionship. yet In which they were
kept apart by the widest CULTS.
Don thought there could we'll be
nothing bitterer than that stage of the
journey which was over. The forced
inaction on board the trains, the fierce
satisfaction of arranging every little
detail for his wife's comfort. always
with the knowledge that that right to
do SO would all too soon cease to be
his; the constant strain to keep up ap-
pearances before servants and oficials.

courage to be the one to cut the cord

he should take her home and he would
80 through with 1t to the bitter end.
His thoughts never went beyond that
end. After their farewell had been
spoken, what mattered 1t wither he
went?
And now they were on board the big
steamer at last. and the May day was
sea. The pilot had long since gone
ashore in the tug steamer. and the
great Indian land of glory and death
was sinking fast astern into the world
of waters.

her last upon 1t with bursting heart.
She had come hither gay and happy

Don never guessed how deep that suf-

Case Argued Yesterday.
ALL POINTS BROUGHT OUT
Jurors Still Out at Two O'Clock
This Morning.

The jury In the Buford-Walden muir
der case was still out at 2 o'clock this
morning and had not reached a decision
although a number of ballots had been
taken.
The case was given to the jury yester-
day afternoon and the jury Immediately
left the court room. Just what the YER
dict will be cannot be conjectured as the
case was hotly contested on both sides.
Adams& Adams were the attorneys for
the defendants and the case was prose-
cuted for the state by County Attorney
Amidon. The entire morning yesterday
was taken up in the arguments of the
attorneys and every detail of the affair
which resulted in the death Of Hoffman.
was gone over.
County Attorney Amidon spoke at
length for the state and brought out
many points concerning the rights of
the railroad man and his duty. On the
other hand the arguments of the attor-
neys for the defense were just as con-
vncingv for the rights of persons trav-
cling on railroad trains.
A number of dispositions concerning
the character of the two men were intro
duced in the testimony on the previous
day. The dispositions were taken at the
homes of the two men and were from
their old neighbors. people who had
known them for seevral years.
The jury are men from different parts
of this county and were thoroughly ex-
amined by the attorneys before the selec-
ton was made

MORE RURAL MAIL ROUTES
Two Will be Established In south
Part of County.

On Friday and Saturday of last week
Special Agent L. A. Thompson and As
sistant Postmaster E. B. Jewett went
over the proposed free delivery routes
running north and east of Wichita,
through Kechi, Park and Minneha town
ships These routes will be established
and in working order from the first to
the 18th of October and if the people liV-
ing on and in the immediate vicinity
of these proposed routes desire to- pat
ronize them they will have the opportu-
nity to do so. These two routes will ac-
conmodate from one thousand to twelve
hundred people, taking the mail to the
doors of many of them, and hardly
anyone will be over one mile from the
route Travelled by carrier, so that by
placing boxes along route taken by car
rier, no one will be over mile from
a post office of their own.
1t was Mr. Thompson intention to es-
tablish two more routes in this county,
one running out from Derby and one
from Maize. which he expected to do on
Monday and Tuesday of this week, but
on Sunday he received a dispatch from
the general superintendent at Denver,
which took him out of the state and
placed him temporarily in charge OF the
office at Denver Mr. Long was here
on Sunday and sent several messages to
the superintendent at Denver asking that
Mr.. Thompson be allowed to finish his
work at this point and after Mr.. Thomp-
son had started away an answer was re-
ceived allowing him to do so. Mr.. Long
then tried to reach him at several points
along the road and have him return, but
the message did not reach Mr.. Thomp<
son so that he could make the necessary
railroad connections which would enable
him to return in order that he could COM
plete the work in the time fixed
Mr. Jewett, however received the fol-
lowing letter from Mr.. Thompson yes
terday evening which shows that the
work in Sedgwick has not oeen abandon
ed. and that it will be completed in a
short time. 1t reads:

Mr. Edward B. Jewett, Assistant Post
master. Wichita, Kansas.
Dear Sir: 1 received Representative
Longs telegram last evening after it
was too late for me to get back and
attend to the Derby case, but l assure
you that I will give the matter of hav-
ing a special agent look after that case
and the one of Maize at the very ear

What VIII You Do With the Three
white Gloves 2"


doc" Kelly is all put out over a vision
Before the Spanish war broke out Doc"
had a vision that Dewey would whale the
Spanish fleet and he hasn't had another
vision until last Sunday night. He had
been tossing about a good deal, he says,
when suddenly he found himself in
great concourse of people, and he heard
mighty voice saying: What will you
do with the three white gloves?"
There was a moments pause and then
the question came again. Again there
was pause and again the mighty voice
interrogated with the same words.
Doc has been pararlyzed ever since
He could talk of nothing else yesterday.
He has always depended on ]. P. Allen
to interpret visions, but Allen utterly
failed yesterday to give him any solace.
Nearly every one accosted insisted on
making doves for gloves" but Doc"
knows what he heard He heard gloves. T"
Doc Kelly is the seventh son of a
seventh son and when he sees vision
he gets it exactly.
Now about the Interpretation. Doc"
doesn't know what to make of it: See
here" he said; "dar's three OBJ dem
gloves-dar's an odd one-dis amt no two
pair, but one and one oder. OATS what
peremterates dis ole man-and white.
Say, Mr.. Allen, when dat ole voice. big
like, done come a-rumbling down on me.
like dis: What Will you do with the
three white-white gloves, well, I tell
YOU 1 knowed it and no mistake"
Farmer Doolittle, who has interpreted
KellS's visions before, says that doc"
being primarily Of political bent of
mind his vision must be given a political
coloring. Farmer says that in the gloves
lie two significant points-that of cleanli-
ness, and war The first white glove
meant that we had warred with Spain
and come out of the conflict clean; the
second that our war with the Philippines
had been one that did not sully the ma
ton, and the third that our action in
China had been above reproach.
This is all right, but it does not explain
the mandatory request: What will you
do with the three white gloves?''
Judge H. c. Sluss, Glenn Fairchild of
Kingman, Ed Jewett and a half dozen
other citizens heard Docs story, but re-
fused TO give anything but humorous in
terpretations of it, when Doc was as seri-
Gus as could be.
And so the demand upon Doc from the
mighty voice remains still mystery.

TO PAY FOR ITSELF
Orient Road VIII Not Burden
Taxpayer
WHAT RAILROAD GIVES
In Taxes VIII Pay Interest on
Bonds and Wipe Them Out

Petitions have been prepared calling q
special election for the purpose of voting
county and city bonds in aid of the Kan
sas City, Mexico and Orient Railway
company, and have been in the hands OF
solicitors procuring signers for several
days.
Reports from the city of Wichita and
most of the county solicitors show the
most gratifying success. i is now an as
sured fact that more than the required
number of sigaers will be easily securerd
in very short time.
Solicitors report the people generally as
being enthusiastic for the proposition,
and thoroughly alive TO the great bene-
fits that will accrue to the county and
city from a new trunk railway that will
open up new territory and new markets
for Sedgwick county products; give
Wichita direct outlet to the gulf and
Pacific coast, and bring to it probably
the largest and best repair and manufac-
turing railroad shops in the state of
are met who state they would be glad
10 have the railroad and shops, and eX-
press the hope that Wichita will secure
them, but say they will probably vote
against the proposition because they have
promised themselves never again to help
increase local taxes by voting for bonds.
To meet this objection of good meaning
citizens and taxpayers, the committee
having this matter in charge has had the
following statements, bearing upon this
particular objection, prepared, and now
submit the same TO the careful and intel
ligent consideration of the taxpayers,
voters and citizens of Sedgwick county,
feeling assured that all such honest OBJ
jectors must be convinced thereby, and
become warm, open supporters of the
proposition. These Statements" prove
beyond question that the taxes collected
from this proposed railroad will not only
pay all interest on bonds voted in aid of
same, but will in twenty years time
actually pay the bonds themselves and
leave handsome surplus to the people.
What more can the objector ask?
Why should the people of Wichita and
Sedgwick county hesitate to increase their
wealth. their taxable property, their
population and their trade advantages.
when they have all TO gain and nothing
TO lose?
The statements are as follows:
Statement showing the mileage of each
of the several railroads in SedewicI5
county, Kansas, together with the as
sessed valuation thereof, and the total
amount Of taxes paid thereon in said
county for 1899, as shown by the records
of the county clerk and county treasurer
Of said county.

ON JANUARY FIRST NEXT
Decision VIII be Made in Regard to
state Fair.


On January next the stockholders of
the state fair association will decide on
whether the state fair will be continued
or not
This was determined at a meeting of
the stockholders in the rooms of the as
ISOLATION in the city building yesterday
afternoon. While the meeting was exec
utive it was reported that there was quite
a diversity of opinion among those pres
ent about the continuation Of the fair.
It was not successful this month in
point of attendance and some of the
members want to discontinue it. Others
do not. In former years when some sin
gle big attraction was secured it built
itself up on the good patronage it secur-
ed. The Bryan day was a highly sue
cessful one. The Coin Harvey attraction
the year before was also successful,
while on account of the large purse
which had to be offered, $500, the Patchen'
and Gentry event was not so lucrative.
The absence Of a single large event the
first of this month and the fact that all
race events in this part of the country
are for some reason drawing small
crowds made hard shedding. for the fair.
There was rumor on the streets yes
terday that the fair would close up and
sell its assets and turn the proceeds over
to the Cudahy fund. This was not
brought up at the meeting.
The stockholders finally decided to wait
until January 1 before making any def
mite decision on the holding of another
fair. Accounts were audited and the
meeting adjourned without further action.
