OVER THEIR CHILD
Mr.. and Mrs. Ballard Have
Series of Scenes.
WARRANT is ISSUED
Husband Charged With AS
Sault and Intent to XII.

Mrs Eta E Ballard filed a complaint
in the city court which resulted in war
rant being issued for the arrest Of her
husband on q charge of assault with in
tent to kill, yesterday.
The Billiards. have been married for
about five or six years but have not lived
happily, according to the statement Of
Mrs. Ballard, and about one year ago
they separated A girl. now four years
old, is the fruit Of their marriage and
this child, ever since they separated, has
been in the keeping of her mother. Not
long after their first separation, peace
was again established in the family and
for several weeks husband and wife
again lived happily together.
But Mrs Ballard claims that her hus-
band began to abuse her and beat
her so severely that unable TO endure his
treatment any longer she left him ana
found home with a married sister in
the east part of the city. For some
time she had not heard or seen anything
of her recreant husband Before long
however, he again appeared and demand
ed the possession Of their child. This was
refused
Tuesday Nights Affair.
Tuesday night, so Mrs Ballard says,
Ballard first administered a sound beat
ing to the defenseless wife and threaten
ed to kill her or anyone who would at
tempt to interfere with his taking the lit
tie girl He finally succeeded in getting
possession Of the child and compelled her
to accompany him where, no one but he
knows.
Ballard two weeks ago rented a room
at a local boarding house and informed
the landlady that he had just arrived in
town and intended to bring his wife to
live with him in a short time He stated
that he had obtained employment with
the John Cudahy Packing company.
Inquiry at this plant, however, devel-
ops the fact that no such name appears
upon the list Of the employees. Mrs. Bal
lard called at the boarding house yester-
day morning hoping to find her child,
but met with disappointment. AS a last
recourse, she called at police headquar-
ters and wa sadvised to have a war
rant issued The latter was obtained and
win be served by city Marshal Henry
Shad as soon as the whereabouts Of Bal
lard IS known.

tailed 10 do recruiting service. have re-
ceived warrants from the war department
at Washington advising them Of their
appointment as sergeant and corporal re-
spectively and in future they viii also
receive the pay Of the rank which they
hold in fact This Is a deserved pro
motion for both Of the men and was OBJ
taiEe6 upon the recommendation Of Cap
tain Euline. the officer in charge OF the
local station
Sergeant Beltz has been connected with
the Wichita station since its establish
ment il this city last July, and Corporal
Day has been located here for the past
four months. Both men have been in
the regular army for years and have also
seen active and honorable service during
the late war with Spain. They have the
confidence Of their superior officer and
the local station, which is only visited
once every. week, is left to their keeping.
Accompanying the warrant is an order
from the war depar tment which explains
that the recruiting service. because Of the
army reorganization. is a distinct branch
Of the service, which was not the case
under the former arrangements. Pri-
Yates on recruiting duty who have been
promoted cannot in future be reduced in
rank except upon the approval Of the
adjutant general The order is the first
one signed by General Miles as lieutenant
general OF the United States army. The
following official telegram was received
yesterday which is self explanatory:
I'm addition to existing Instructions en-
list at all stations desirable men fitted

for the Philippines. Until further orders

ments in weekly telegraphic reports Phil

ty for energetic action is imperative"
The last word Of the dispatch is writ
ten in capital letters and indiea ties that
there is a great need for recruits. The
local station is among the very best in
the country and heads the list OF all the
stations of like Importance

BY unanimous consent, without excep-
lion, the merchants Of Wichita have de-
cided 70 close their stores at 3 O'Clock
for the balance Of the day in honor Of
George Washington's birth Tomorrow
Is the date Of his birth and the plan to
have the stores close at O'Clock was put
on foot yesterday. 1t struck a popular
chord and by night the merchants had
agreed 10 close their stores and let the
clerks have advantage Of the afternoon.
This is one OF the first years in the city
when such a thing has been done by
unanimous consent, but it shows that the
merchants Of Wichita have the proper
spirit The banks OF the city announced
yesterday that they would be closed AL
day on account OF Washington day, ac-
corGing TO custom, and the Dostodice peo-
pie VIII probably make some announce

SOME SHINING HOURS WASTED.
The Cuban Bee Would Not be Called
Industrious on the Mainland

The Cuban Bee Would Not be Called
Industrious on the Mainland.
while down in Cuba recently" said
a Bohemian, IT stumbled on to a rath-
er interesting observation in connection
with the life of the Cuban bee, and I
have marked very clear difference be-
tween the Cuban insect and his Ameri-
can relative Bees are universally
looked upon as industrious, hustling
members of the insect world, and have
become tame in the earlier school lite
nature on this account Children are
taught that the bees example Is one to
be followed and so far as the Ameri-
can type is concerned there Is no rea-
son for discontinuance of this lesson
The American bee is great hustler,
and he has sustained the honor con-
ferred upon him in the verses and short
stories found in the early readers.
But with the Cuban bee it is differ
ent. They are lazy, trifling fellows, al
most slovenly in the way they do
things, and in the architecture OF the
hive they do not show that delicacy
and precision in the matter of finish
and measurement which have made the
bee q wonder to some of the men OF
science. I even believe that was able
to detect some difference in the flavor
of Cuban honey some lack Of that
daintiness Of flavor found in the Amer
lean product, but this might have been
an unconscious prejudice on my part.
But at any rate, the Cuban bee is
not like the American bee. l have
watched them for hours, and they all
look like drones to one when compared
to the American type. The Cuban bee
has q sort Of an ox-Cart movement
when he goes about his work, The
American bee is snappy, quick, almost
electrical. Now, why Is this? l have
my own theory, and / base 1t upon the
broadcast principle OF science, a princi-
pie universally recognized for Its po-
tency in the shaping of character 1t
is a matter Of environment
"The Cuban bee has been surrounded
bv slow methods and awkward crude
ways of doing things He simply re-
fleets the life, the mannerisms and the
methods about him. He is still the bee

counted for in the same way He Is a

Thus removed from the collectors,

Thus removed from the collectors"
the oysters begin the second period of
their existence-an intermediate period
or youth, SO to speak-for though suftl-
Gent ly developed to exist alone they
are not yet strong enough to resist the
attacks of their numerous enemies.
They are, therefore, placed for few
months in an apparatus called an "am-
bulance." These "ambulances" are
fiat boxes about ten inches high. the
bottoms of which are of wire grating.
Thus isolated, the young oysters are
completely protected by box identical
with the one in which they are in
closed, but reversed, so as to consti-
tute kind of cage in which the water
can circulate freely without allowing
fish or crabs to enter The boxes,
which contain no fewer than three
thousand oysters each. are arranged
side by side and firmly affixed to the
bottom of the park" by means of
stakes. In this manner the young oys-
tiers can thrive in peace and without
fear Of being attacked by any of their
numerous enemies, who appreciate oys-
tiers fully as much as man appreciates
them.
The oysters remain three months in
these boxes, during which time they
are jealousy cared for being watered
frequently to remove the impurities
and sea weeds which have gathered
among them. At the end Of the three
months they have reached a diameter
of from two to two and one-half inch
es. They are now of sufficient size for
sale, but not yet large enough to bring
in much profit. They are, therefore,
thrown along the bottom of the park"
where they continue to grow, their
shell being of sufficient strength to
Withstand the attacks of fishes. The
oysters continue to grow until the age
of two or three years, when they reach
the size of four inches In diameter.
After the age Of three they stop grow
ing and there is no advantage in allow
ing them to remain any longer in the
beds.
The oyster fisher-people Of Goes, who
form a community by themselves, live
in small wooden huts facing the oyster
beds. Though the oyster industry de-
mands constant care, the life led by
the good people of Goes is free from the
hardships of most seafaring people,

DRY" FLY FISHING.

The Floating Fly is the Deadliest Lure
How the Anglers Tie and Use 1t,
Fly fishing with dry fly quite natural
" appears to be an absurdlty on the
face Of it 1t will at once be said by the
uninitiated that If you cast an artificial
fv made of feathers, silk, tinsel and a
steel hook on TO the water 1t will get
wet and sink Some years ago an
American angler-Dr Prime, author of
that pleasant little book, II Go a-Fish-
ing"-said, In an American journal
that to keep a fly dry so that 1t would
float on the water and not sink or get
wet was an "impossibility," which only
proves that the Doctors knowledge of
f1v fishing was limited to the old and
excellent stvle now called wet fly fish
ing. AS a matter of fact, 1t is perfect
" easy to fish throughout even the
wettest day with your fly always float
ing on the surface, and not merely on
still water. but also In gale of wind,
when the surface Is broken into waves,
or in rough stream.
In 1879 that excellent hy-fisher and
fishing tackle maker, the late James
Ogden Of Chelt enham. whose reputa-
ton is well sustained by the present
Mr.. James Ogden, published that very
useful little work, ogden on Fly Ty-
ing" and in it he describes how he had
introduced his floating flies to the ang-
ling world forty years previously e.,
and about 1910, and also how he discov-
cred the advanta age Of using dry fly
tc n
claims a place in any account of the
history Of fly fishing. He says:
Some forty years ago, when intro
duced my floating flies, the love Of ang-
ling was increasing at the rate of ten to
one from when I was a lad. / always
found the more stream was whipped
over. the more wary and shy the fish
became; and I always made it rule
never to leave good rising fish while
he was feeding. l have tried every
dodge and often every fly in my book.
Nv changing my end fly I have occa-
sionally (not intending to do SOY made
a cast with a dry fly. In those days it
was said this would scare rising trout
and cause him to leave off feeding. On
tho other hand, / found while my fly
was still on the surface, WltIout Il mp
ple. it has tempted the fish to seize it,
after I have been throwing sunk fly
over him. in vain, scores Of times.
These observations were the cause of
NV introducing floating flies. l found
it advisable to use one fly only with a
shorter casting line"
1t was not until the early eighties
about twenty years ago-that dry fly
fishing began to come into general USE
it's use previously had been confined to
a comparatively few experts, on a few
streams Up to that time the flies used
were. although made especially with
view to their floating, attached to gut
in the old way. /. e., the hook was
whipped to a strand of gut. and it was
found that flies so fastened to the line
