BEST TOWN IN WEST
So Says E. D. Kaldenbaugh
of Ohio.
CAME HERE TO CLOSE OUT
Boom in Wichita Real Estate
Changed His Mind.

e K. Kaldenbaugh of New Philadel-
mia. Ohio. has been in Wichita for the
last few days and has been looking INTO
things about the city and has come 10
the conclusion that he will move here as
soon as he can make arrangements. Mr.
Kaldenbaugh has property interests In
the city and came here with the intention
of selling at any price he could get But
now he has been looking over the sltua-
ton and says that his property IS not on
the market.
Mr.. kaIdenbaugh was seen yesterday
and said: II never in all my life saw
such an improvement in city as there
has been in Wichita Some call this a
town, but I call it city and good one.
1 came here in 1851 and invested about
| ST. $50 in Wichita property and l nave II
all yet, for the reason that l have not
been able to get rid of 1t. / LEFT ONO
and came out here with the intention OF
selling my property for SO cents on the
dollar or whatever else I could get Tor II.
| |, was determined to sell out at any sac
rifce.
But when I got here it did not take
me more than about ten minutes to re-
consider the plan. When l was here IN
! 1887, the place where the court house now
stands was a vacant lot, and by the way
| that's the finest court house there Is in
the western country The Santa Fe depot
! had not been built and not one of the
wholesale houses, mills oreelevators now
along the tracks had at that time ever
; L hon
North Water street where there was
nothing but a row of little shanties, and
when I went around to look at them the
other day I couldn't tell that l ever seen
the place before. 1 have some other lots
out on Wabash avenue and the same
| thing was true about them. 1 also have
quite tract of land on Paramount hill
! did not believe was worth 80 cents, but
now L believe that 1 can make living
! off it, Since l have been here L have
looked the city over pretty careful and
have found out a good many things. One
| thing l noticed was the amount OF mar
ket garden stuff which was being shipped
out. The express companies tell me that
| there is more of this kind of freight
goes out than all other kinds. SO just
! -
with my land on Paramount was to go
into the market garden business myself
and that is what 1 intend to do. 1 be-
neve that there is good money in 1t.
"But that's not near all the good
things I can say about Wichita. There is
not a city in what we people in Ohio call
the west that can begin to compare with
her. You can imagine the improvement
there has been since 1887, and they are
such fine improvements. Wichita has the
/ best public buildings Of any city twice
/ her size in the country. She has fine
stores and they handle line of high
priced goods. Wichita is also metro
politan city. Her people are the best
/ looking, best dressed and best behaved
that I have ever seen I have Travelled
pretty much al lover the United States
and I wish TO say that Wichita is the
| best all around city I have ever seen"

Thirty-Three More Deaths the Past
Week Than in Week Before.
There were during the week ended April
Z. 1900, 169 deaths. ninety of the decedents
being white persons and seventy-nine COL
ored. Comparison with the preceding week
shows that there was an increase of thirty
three the colored race furnishing the great
er part. The ratio Of deaths per 1000
inhabitants was for the white, 22.7S: for
the colored, 4S.71; and for the total popu-
lation, 29.s2. The principal causes of death
were apoplexy, II deaths; consumption, 23:
brain diseases, 8; heart diseases, 1S; kid
ney diseases, 6; pneumonia, IS: bronchitis,
5; and grip. II. Pulmonary diseases
caused forty-Six deaths, a decrease of six
as compared with the preceding week and
an increase of sixteen over the correspond
ing period Of last year. Apoplexy. heart
diseases and grip furnished an increase of
seven, two and nine, respectively, as COM
pared with the week ended March 81, 1900,
and six, ten and sixteen, compared with
the week ended April 8, 1899. The conta-
gious diseases were represented by diph-
iberia, measles and whooping cough, there
being two deaths from the former and one
each from the latter diseases. There were
four deaths from accidents.
At the close of the last report there had
been reported one case of smallpox. Dur
ing the week just ended six additional cases
were discovered making total of seven
cases of smallpox in this District. all Of
whom are confined in the smallpox hospital.
At the close of the last report also, there
were thirty-nine cases Of diphtheria quar-
antined. Twenty-Five cases were reported
during the week and six were discharged,
thus leaving fifty-eight cases quarantined
in forty-three premises at this writing.
Fifty-nine cases of scarlet fever were in
isolation at the close of the previous re-
port. During the week thirteen new cases
We're reported and fourteen persons were
discharged from quarantine. This leaves
fifty-eight cases under treatment in forty
five premises at this time.
For the past week the mean temperature
of the air was 80 degrees: relative hunidi-
ty, 80; and barometric pressure, 1854. The
prevailing direction of the wind was north
westerly. averaging nine miles per hour,
reaching velocity the 4th instant of
thirty miles. The lowest temperature re-
corded was 80 degrees. on the 9TH instant,
it rising to 20 degrees, the maximum tenn
perature of the week, on the 9th instant.

American cotton goods manufacturers
have entirely overlooked the Importance of
the Australian market for that commodity
says Consul George W. Bell, at Sydney,
New South Wales. in recent report to the
State Department. Owing to the existence
of perennial summer In Australia cottons
are worn all the year around by the ma
jority of the people. The four and a half
million Australians rank among the wealth.
est people Of the globe and lawns muslins
and other light fabrics are more extensive
ly used there than in any European coun-
try. The consul is convinced of the i'm
portance of Americans entering the cotton
goods market there, but he says that the
trade must be carefully and systematically
catered to. The factories in the Unit ted
States, he says, are run solely for the home
dull and goods accumulate, the surplus ia
unloaded upon the for>ign market and a
short-lived foreign trade is opened. But as
soon as the temporary lull has given way
to a boom at home our customers abroad
are neglected. competitors secure the mar
kat and the foreign trade is left to be re-
covered with the additional handicap of
shaken faith.
When it is remembered, says Consul ReII
that the people of New South Wales alone
annually import "drapery" to the amount
of $S,OOO,OOO. and that the importation of
cotton manufactures into Australia about
equals the total expectation of these goods
from the United States. our manufacturers
should appreciate the wisdom of catering
to that market.

REFUSE TO SIGN.
Six of Philadedphia's Best Men Hold.
ing Out for More Money.

Notwithstanding that 1t was given out
by the management of the PHILADELPHIA
Base Ball Club that all the players taken
south for preliminary practice have signed
contracts 1t now appears that such an
nouncement was far from the truth, and
six of the men are still unsigned
Reposing in the Philadelphia ball club 8
safe are the contracts for Delehanty, Flick,
Thomas, Douglass Cross and Bernhardt

The fate of the Philadelphia team without
these players can be better imagined than
described If this sextet should decline the
invitation Of ]. I. Rogers for q jaunt to
Boston on the 18th of this month, an
incident that will surely occur unless he
agrees to the terms Of these recalcitrants
and capitulates.
These six men positively decline to sign
contracts for the season unless ]. I. Rogers
agrees to certain financial conditions which
the aforementioned players affirm are fair
and equitable. and further than this they
will not go to Boston for the opening game
unless he agrees to these terms and re-
duces them to black and white. Many con-
ferences have recently been held, but both
sides are firm. The players say that it is
up to Rogers to hoist the white nag, that
they have nailed their colors to the mast,
and will go down with the colors flying
All the players went to Charlotte N c.,
for three-weeks' holiday at the colonel S
expense, but now that the season is on

Champion Plays Wonderful
Golf,

GOIf.
Harry Vardon, the open champion golfer
of Great Britain, had an easy task in de-
feating Willie Dunn, a former open cham
pioE Of the United States, in a 36-hole
exhibition match yesterday over the links
of the Scarsdale Golf Club. Hartsdale, N
Y. Vardon won by II up. with 10 to play
The men played out the bye holes and at
the end Of the thirty-sixth the Englishman
was just IS up.
Vardons driving mashie and approach
shots included some remarkable ones but
his putting was not SO good One of his
drives In the first round sent the ball 225
yards. 1t went over a lake and landed on
top of a hill on the other side. its flight be-
ing wonderfully direct. Vardon received
an ovation for this stroke, but Dunn fol-
lowed with a similar stroke, the balls fall
ing about twenty-five yards apart
The course Is of nine holes. During the
first round Dunn held his own play well,
as at the ninth Vardon was only 1 up, but
at the end Of the eighteenth Vardon then
had the lead by up. After a recess of
two hours the men started out again, but
before they reached the ninth hole Dunn
was beaten, Vardon being IL up and 10 to
play. The game was continued to the de-
light of the spectators. and at the close of
the fourth round of the links Vardon had
increased his lead to IS up on a 80 hole
play. The scores:

PUT UP A CREDITABLE GAME.
Georgetown Boys Played Good Bal
With the BroOklyns.


1t must be the atmosphere of National
Park that benefits the Georgetown base ball
players so much. Last season the wearers
of the blue and gray played the Washing
ton club to a standstill at the park, and
yesterday. when the oollegians faced the
champion Brooklyn team. they gave an ex-
hibition of the national game worthy Of
the highest praise. When the GEORGETOWN
lads faced the Phillies last week they went
up into the air and stayed there throughout
the game, but yesterday the word PRO
tessionaf' had no terrors for them, and as
a result game was put up full of credit
able playing. The Brooklyns won, Of
course and by the score of to 3, but they
had TO play good ball throughout the seven
innings, and could take no chances
Mckay did the twirling for the George
towns, and was effective when he got the
ball over the plate. but his numerous bases
on balls were costly and gave the visitors
the greater number Of their runs. Catcher
Cranston had bad day in throwing to Sec
ono. but the runners were the speediesr in
the business. and it required catchers wit h
equal throwing ability to head them off.
Smith at third, had a couple of Slip ups.
but he nailed five Of his eight chances in
clever style and secured ono of the clubs
eight hits. The remainder of the team can
not be criticised. They were on their toes
continually. and Moran and Walsh played
sensational ball throughout When it is
Iaken INTO consideration that Howell and
McGinnerty, two of the top-notch twirlers
OF the National League. were the visitors
pitchers, 1t Is small wonder that the uni
versity boys made any hits at ALL But
they did place the ball safely and at Cp-
perfume times. at that. Walsh managed TO
meet an outshoot on the end Of his bat,
and when Sheckard recovered the ball 1t
was up against the left-feld fence and the
batter landed safely on third. O'Hara then
followed with a nice single to right and
an earned run resulted, the only one OF the
game.
The visiting professionals were loud in
commencing the Georgetown players, and
declared the team had almost a cast-iron
cinch on the college championship. Harvard
and Princeton being the strongest teams on
the outside The cold weather of yesterday
kept the attendance down to small figures
Two interesting games are scheduled for
this afternoon. The Brooklyns will play the
