SANE OH rEAP

After the big rain OF Wednesday when
the water had come down with such force
and left the corner Of Topeka and Doug
las little lake, Park Massey stood
watching the situation with an anxious
face, and in a musing mood related how
in his time in Wichita and since it was
quite city the whole central part Of the
business section has been flooded a foot
OF more deep. and how there has been
flowing water clear to the base Of the
hill east. There is a slough leaving the
river a little above Second street and
running diagonally down through town
10 the east, taking in that always inun-
dated corner at the Manhattan. The po-
lice officer says that whenever the two
rivers rise at the same time there will be
trouble in this city. That when Colorado
has enough rain or snow and closes the
ditch gates and allows the water to take
its natural course down the river, and
the spring freshets and annual heavy
rains swell both rivers, then viii come a
heap of woe. He points out that the
channel is year by year being narrowed
and the river banks closer together, thus
adding TO the bulk OF the water that
would rush through and certainly over
flow the banks.

Adams and he mounted his pony and
started for Fort Leavenworth to make
arrangement for the lumber for the new
hotel.
The boys waited anxiously for his re-
turn and the few who left are waiting yet
for neither McAdsms nor his boots ever
showed up in Wichita again.
in 1s72,' continued Mr. Hunter, 'I
went up into Washington territory with
friend Of mine and way up in the
northern part We stopped at a little min
ing town in the wilderness and while
there Dutehman who run a miner store
told US about man from Kansas with a
very pretty pair Of boots that had come
up there and bought an interest in the
tavern or hotel for $500. We knew in a
minute that # was McAdans. The
Dutchman said that after Nc bought the
interest IN the hotel and paid over his
money that mis- new partner told him that
he would have to wait on the table. Nc
Adams baked at this but the partner was
firm and told him that all he would have
TO do woulo be to tell the boarders what
they had for a meal and get IL for them
and to always ask at dinner whether they
wanted soup or not. McAdans made his
debut as waiter at the dinner hour and
he stalked INTO the dining room in all the
glory Of his fancy boots and hot under
the collar. He tackled the first boarder
with say, de ye want soup? The man
said he didn't care for soup Well, we've
got to take it ye blathering oumadon,'
says McAdams, and he showed the plate
under the bOaroer's nose and the big fight
was about to start McAdams was not a
success as a waiter for he tired of the
life in a day and blowed the town"

Half an hour later he learned that a

that the man he had seen running down

about the man he had seen. The police
man said that his description tailed sx-

STORY OF AN EXCAVATION.

At the corner Of Murdock avenue and
Main street, just south Of the big
barn there is & large hole IN the ground
that was always an object Of some specu-
lation to most Wichita youngsters who in
times past have slid down its sloping
sides or hid in its capaeious interior dur
ing a hard pressed game Of barbaree at
night.
The hole or excavation has been there
ever since Heck was pup and within
the memory of Oldest inhabitants there
never was any building on it
a number Of people have been asked
about it at different times but no one
seemed TO know just what it was OF what
1T was dug for.
Some one told an Eagle reporter that
Charlie Hunter might be able 10 tell
something about that hole and visit
was accordingly made 10 Mr.. Hunter IN
search OF information.
Yes" said Mr. Hunter, I know a
little about the history OF that hole.
There was never any house or building
on it. It was dug there in IS7l by a man
named Jack McAdams. MoAdams was

80 HuR LEAsE.s PoErRY.

Every little while comes the report of
some new achievement or some new hon
ors won by the scholarship and ability OF
the Lease children in New York City.
They are all very bright, Industrious and
earnest in their school work and each
has won distinction in some line OF sohoi-
arly attainment. In the last issue of the
College Review. the debate number of
the College of the City of New York. a
literary magazine published monthly by
the students, there is a fine poem entitled
THE Old Apple Tree written by Ben
Hur Lease. who. by the way. is the Off
cial class poet Of the large class of this
year The poem IS Of four stanzas of six
verses each and is a beautiful gem OF
poesy, ful Of power. gentle rhythmic ca
dence and sparkling with human sympa-
thy and the spirit Of that ever present
longing Of the race for those Joys of
youth and care-free days when in indo-
lence and youthful optimism one swings
or rolls beneath the old apple tree"

WHAT THERE Is IN GOLF.


Giles Smith went out to the golf links
on College Hnl the other day. impelled
by the golf craze which has Wichita at
the end OF a short halter and is leading
people this way and that. and tried 70
see why on earth any rational being
would take the time TO seize a club and
belt small white ban aroung an eighty
acre field.
He tells this story: A man was standing
over the ban with q club. the bail fixed
upon a rubber teacup. OF TO one side
stood a ea6dy. sweating under the weight
Of bootleg fun Of canes. The man
yelled Fore whaIed into the bali 10
drive It straight ahead. hit it dab on
one side. an the ball fipped up n the
air snd hit ---e caddy IN the stomach ard
doubled him Up. ana the man said; Cant
you keep away from the 'front.'
A good many other people have seen
the game Just as Giles Smith saw H.
Now. the charm OF the game IS this

sport is In no wsy superior TO driving
