FIRST GRADE WHEAT
Kansas Product Beats Everything on
LiYernOOI Market.

Some time ago the Eagle called the
Minneapolis millers to account for claim
ing that their -four was not mixed with
that made from Kansas hard wheat. The
Eagle then stated that the Kansas hard
wheat made a better grade of -four than
the spring wheat variety. and that this
was an effort on the part of the north
western millerss to discredit Kansas
wheat
Merit will win in the long run, as the
Eagle stated. and now since the millers
in this state have commenced to ship
their flour direct to Europe Kansas hard
wheat -four has moved up to first place
and ahead of the spring wheat -four,
and now Kansas hard wheat is quoted
one cent higher in the Liverpool market
than No. ] northern wheat. The Kansas
farmers, by the aid Of the Kansas mil
lers, have won out and now the farmers
of the Arkansas valley can put their
wheat in their bins with an assurance
that they have the best wheat in the
world.
The Eagle has on several occasions
called attention to the fact that Wichita
is in the center of the hard wheat belt
and that it is bound to become a milling
center. In about two weeks the Watson
mill in this city viii be running and it
is the largest mill in the state of Kan
sas. Here is the place for more big mills
and in a very few years Wichita flour
VIII stand at the head of the list in this
country and in Europe. Even Chicago
is now talking of making Kansas Turkey
wheat a contract grade That is such
wheat as can be delivered on options.
The board of trade in that city has al
ways refused to deliver Kansas winter
wheat on these contracts. but now that
it is taking the lead, Chicago spectators
want to get hold of it. J. E. Howard was
one of the men who worked hard 10 get
Mr.. Watson to build his big mill here
and he SAYS there viii be other big mills
built in this city before another harvest
is past
The grain men and the millers in this
city have caught on and already there
is talk of more large elevators and the
grain men are presenting arguments 10
the railroads in favor of a liberal policy
toward the grain men who want to To-
cate elevators or the joint railroad
tracks They see that Wichita is going
to become a grain and milling center and
they want the railroads to encourage it.

The Salvation Army held a picnic at
Riverside park yesterday and 1t was a
grand success. About 800 men, women

were addressed by Mrs. A. c. Dunbar,
Mr.. A. c. Bray and Ensign Anstis. Cap
tain Durrell had a good time playing.
At 11:S0 B. W Daniels, sergeant ma
jor, who was in charge of the picnic,
called the picnickers together with the
beat of the drum and they were formed
in line and told if they were good that
Major Daniels would treat them to
grapes, watermelons, peaches and pea
nuts. After enjoying this they were
given the privilege Of the park. and they
romped, played and had a good time in
general
About 10 o'clock they were called to-
gether by the beat OF the drum and again
treated TO fruits, and fun reigned the
rest OF the day.
Sir. Daniels wishes 10 thank the street
car company for their kindness in giving
the children a free ride.

THROWN FORTY FEET
Strange Accident on the Race
Track Yesterday.
]. LOMAN'S S0MMERSAULT
While Going at a Two-Minute
Clip Down the Stretch.

The fast mahogany bay stallion, John
Loman, at the end Of mile as fast as
the wind yesterday morning turned a
complete sommersault on the track and
came near putting an end to his owner
and driver, MIR. John Wiedeman.
The accident occurred at Il O'Clock. Mr..
Wiedeman was thrown far into the air
and was turned over and over. finally
landing far in advance of Inc horse. and
fortunately on his feet, although he i'm
mediateiy after did some quick tumbling
along the ground. Luckily neither horse
nor driver was hurt. although Mr.. Wiede-
man was considerably bruised up.
The accident occurred in this way: Mr..
Wiedeman had the beautiful stallion, on
which he has centered his admiration
since the sale of Edith w, out for fast
mile. He clipped the quarter off rapidly,
the half quicker, the three-quarters in
good shape and came down the home
stretch at a two minute gait, as even and
steady as a piece of fine machinery. the
day was fine and John Loman was
hanging up a very fast mile.
Mr. Wiedeman's children were in the
grand stand and were just clipping their
hands at the success of the mile. when
Loman was thrown suddenly into the air,
and turned over ending up with his head
away from the wire and his tail toward
it, In the meantime Mr.. Wiedeman had
been jerked high into the air and was
turning over and over, lighting and
tumbling. and as soon as he gained his
feet rushed to the stallion, whom he was
overjoyed to find all right.
What had happened was that Loman
in some way had stepped on the tip of
one of his shoes on his fore-foot and
thrown himself. The ten-ounce shoe had
been bent double by the terrible force of
the stroke.
OF course the Children were frightened
to death almost, by the spectacle, but
were quickly treasured when they saw
their father get to his feet.
Nr. Wiedeman says that John Lomap
as soon as he got to his feet, pricked up
his ears and stood ready for another
race.

HOCKADAY BEATS CLARK
and Will BE in the Braburn Golf
Finals


The finals of the Braeburn golf tourna-
ment VIII now be played by the winner
Of the Amidon-Ayers match, which is to
be completed today and Mr.. Newt Hook
aday, who won his match over Professor
Clark, yesterday.
Mr. Hockaday played his usual even,
steady game yesterday and won easily
without the need OF his handicap. Prof
Clark played into hazards and their diff
culties proved too much for him. On his
last round he took thirteen strokes to
reach the last hole and spoiled an other
wise good score. IN the same round he
took eight strokes 10 reach the fifth, the
1OO-yard hole, as a result OF the hazards
with which it is completely surrounded.
Amidon and Myers complete their
match today. They are closely matched
and one is as likely to win as the other.
Then the winner and Mr.. Hockaday win
play for the cup. In the tournament, Mr..
Hockaday has played Victor Murdoch,
Nestor Moore and Professor Clark and
has not made a round in over sixty.
The score yesterday was as follows:
Hockaday (ouO &c SIS
Clark (ouD NIB 5 3 8 10-61
Hockaday dn) ~ 6 6 / 10 4 Sc
Clark dn) ........5 5 5 6 1S-61

At the College Hill links of the Wich-
tia Country Club. some of the new play
ers are coming fast. Among them are
Judge Dale, C. H. Brooks, who is devel-
opLng into remarkable driver, DR.. Jones
Mr. Martling and Mr.. Knorr.
Judge Dale is making a great Roadway
with the game. He has played only four
times, but yesterday he cut deep into his
record score, making it once around in
sixty-fTye. which is remarkable for a new
player. His score yesterday was as fol-
lows:
out ..............6 Z 9 s 912 9 1913
In .................5 10 9 9 6-65
This is a total Of 143 strokes, probably
tAe best ever made on the course by
beginner.

hibitions Never Before "a Wichita,
The big street fair is growing larger
in dimensions every day, and it is already
an assured fact that this years fair Will
outshine anything ever attempted in Kan
sas. A big contract Tor immense lighting
and electrical decorating was signed to-
today. This means that Douglas avenue
will be brilliantly illuminated from the
Rock Island depot to and including the
Midway, and also extending from the
court house on North Main street to the
Midway. Such lighting as this contract
calls for has never before been seen in
Wichita. and the widest and most ex-
tensive mind is unable TO imagine its
grandeur. Music. that word alone, wiz
run in the minds of the thousands who
will be here during the grand carnival.
Many bands will be here; already six of
the finest bands have been secured and
many in Oklahoma and Kansas are being
negotiated with. 1t will mean music. good
and bad. classic and popular, from morn
ing until late at night. Colored singers
and string instrumentalists are being en-
gagged, who will parade the streets during
the night singing and playing. There will
be a constant buzz of music all the time
during the big celebration Colonel Fitch
has more requests for privileges than he
knows what to do with. He has received
over go requests for privileges from ali
over the United States, but he informed
a reporter for The Eagle yesterday that
it was his intention of giving the home
people the first chance to secure the
privileges. He will keep these privileges
open until next Saturday and after that
the outside fellows will get a chance at
them.
The prominent merchants are all getting
street fair envelopes and making con-
tracts for elaborate decorations; in fact,
leaving nothing undone to make this one
of the grandest affairs ever given west Of
the Mississippi. Over twenty people are
clearing the grounds for the big Midway
and exhibition grounds. One hundred and
twenty thousand feet of ground have been
set aside for the Midway alone. Many
Buffalo attractions are trying hard to get
into this carnival but only the best VIII
be admitted a large restaurant is go
ing to be on the ground. which viii have

The grounds for this year are the most
beautiful and romantic that could be Sc
cured, and VIII make an ideal place for
the big demonstration. There will be 81
feet of vestibple leading to the Midway
which will be full of first-class. up-to-
date attractions. and which will be en-
tirely free. The grounds where the pyro-
technical display is to be have been Sc
lected so as to accommodate thousands Of
people can witness that magnificent dis
pIav with comfort. Never before have
tn efforts been made as are now being
made by Colonel Tom Fitch and his com
nittee.

Wonderful Wheat Stories Come From
Sumner County.

Captain W. T. Burgess has just re-
turned from Sumner county and he re-
ports great interest among the people in
the wheat carnival to be held in Yelling
ton and says it will be the biggest affair
of the kind ever held in the west. It will
also, he thinks, develop the fact that
never. in the history of Kansas has there
been such a yield of wheat, both as TO
qualit yand acreage. From one point
seven threshers could be seen at work.
The yield runs from twenty to twenty
seven bushels per acre average in the
fields and not POOR quality Of grain was
seen. It is simply immense.
