BURROWS MOI INIT
It Is Not Considered serious What
ever He Huns for.

Topeka. Kans, June 2.-Joe Burrow,
Of Smith county, a Republican Office
seeker with many booms, who has been
holding conferences and doing stunts to
keep his name in the papers, is not re-
garded seriously by the statesmen Of his
party here. Mr.. Burrow is just now
drawing straws to see whether he will
make the race for congressman or secre-
tary of state. It will make little differ
ence which way he decides the matter,
for the Burton crowd rules in the Sixth
district. and this element Of the party is
pledged TO Ed wellington of Ellsworth
for congressman, Dave Hannah of era
ham for lieutenant governor and A. H.
Ellis of Mitchell for associate justice.
Two places on the state ticket are all
the Sixth district contingent can expect
so if Hanna and Ellis land. Burrow Will
have to 90 to the shelf.
Burrow points to the fact that the Sew
enth district has three state officers
Stanley. Grimes and Nelson-but the ex-
pert politician says that the Seventh dis
trict situation is unusual, and the ex-
ample set viii not be followed by fut-
ure conventions.

CLAIM THE FORTUNE
Several People Want Fortune
of Eliza Kearns.
WOMAN SAYS IT Is HERS
Chief Burt Directed to Send
Money at Once.
WOMAN SAYS IT is HER.

Chief OF Police Frank Burt yesterday
received liter written from Shelly. Ok
| lahona. and signed by Marea Nitengale
In which she asks the chief to look up
Eliza Kearns and order her to send her
papers and money. She states that the
money is five thousand dollars In gold.
The letter is written in red ink and is a
dangerous looking epistle.
The writer of this letter was unable to
give the address of the girl which she
says has 5000 OF her money and all in
gold, but she does inform the chief that
she is a working girl in your town" The
Eagle several weeks ago wrote an occount
Of the death Of Eliza Kearns and gave
evidence that she had a considerable sum
Of money at the time of her death. which
has since beene found. The writer OF
this letter has evidently read that ac-
count.
Several claimants to Miss Kearn's for
tune have already appeared and the po-
lice and the administrator, Newton Garst,
of course are puzzling their brains about
the legitimacy of these claims. The po-
lice department a few days ago received
a letter from a man who claimed the
money. He said he was nephew Of Eli
"a Kearns and the only heir to her prop
erty. Then the administrator has received
another letter from an attorney in Kan
sas City who says he is the representa-
tive OF several Of the heirs. Mr.. Garst
claims to have the evidence that the girls
name was not Kearns at all and that she
came from Ireland and has no relatives
in this country.
The Eagle stated that FIVE hundred dol
lars Of the money had been found and
other papers in republishing the item,
have doubtless added few figures and
some of these claimants seem TO think
that there is an immense fortuns all in
cash left by Eliza Kearns here at Wich-
tia, just waiting for the proper party to
come along and get it.
If some paper will add another cipher
or two so as to move the figure five a
few points further from the place where
the period ought to be this Wichita for
tune will soon become famous and there
will be claimants all over the world pre-
pared to prove kinship wita Efiza herns.
Chief Burt and Ofncers James Oliver and
James Mercer are taking particular pains
to find the right heir and proof Of claim
ants will receive prompt attention from
fbarn

WICHITA IS IMPROVING
There Were Ss4 Homes Erected Last
Year.

City Assessor r. c. Jackman has igur-
ed out that S4 new houses were erected
in this city for the year ending on the
first day of last March and there have
probably been double that number Of
houses in that time improved by having
additions added to them.
Assessment OF real estate IS made every
two years in this state but is the custom
Of assessors in the cities in the of year
to go around and raise the assessment on
lots that have been improved since the
assessments were made the previous year
and this enables the assessor TO tell just
how many lots have had buildings erect
ed on them since the former assessment.

Wichita, but if they were strung out on
country road they would make quite a lit

INGOMAR WAS GREAT
stock Company Presents the Classic
in an Able Manner.


Patrons ofthe Toler were given a treat
last night by the New York Madison
Square company in their presentation Of
the beautiful drama, "Ingomar," the bar
barian which has not been produced in
Wichita for several years when it was
presented by Robert Downing.
The presentation by the Madison Square
company was up to the standard Of high
class attractions. In fact it is seldom
that Wichita theater goers have the op-
portunity of seeing as good an attrac-
tion at fifty and seventy-five cents. The
company was greeted by large audience
but not so large as the company deserves.
If the theatergoers realized the able and
artistic manner in which this classic
drama is being presented at the Toler
this week, the house would be crowded
and standing room only would be at prem
ium tonight and Saturday night. Nh.
John A. Preston as 'Ingomar" and Miss
Madeline Mcdonald as Pasthems sustain
edtheir rolls in a creditabls manner and
were given several curtain calls. Their
work was near perfection, supported BY
an entire company OF able artists. The
special scenery was grand and the cos
tunes were rich and as gorgeous as the
Grecian fanciers and mountaineer's COS
tune would permit.
The same attraction will be repeated
tonight and Saturday night and every
seat in the Toler should be occupied.

OMAHA, Neb., Oct. I7.-Rear Admiral
Robley D. Evans passed through the
city today on his way to the Samoan ISL

charges against naval officers
What is your opinion of the Schley

well, I might have a private opin.

to express it publicly at present. re-

Will Schley be exonerated?"
He has never been condemned in the
eyes of the public so far as my OBJ
servation goes he replied
Just what the outcome of The trial
will be I cannot say. 1t is very graft
flying to the public, however, to know
that Admiral Dewey is on that board
of investigation.
Admiral Evans said he was not in a
position to say more, but added: ST will
state this, however, that the battleship
Texas is not receiving the notice and
consideration it deserves in that investi-
