ISSUE BETWEEN NOBLEMEN
Submitted to a wichita Man by an
English Friend.

Mr.. J. Hudson Mcknight is in receipt
of letter from friend Of his in Lon
don, begging prompt response to
question put to him with reference to
the origin of the rabbits foot as tails
man OF good luck. II seems that two
distinguished English nobiemen have
had a very animated controversy in their
club over the popular superstition and
It's origin, and TO decide the dispute
Kansas authority was decided upon, the
understanding of the noblemen being that
the jack rabbit was purely a Kansas
product and that hence the superstition
originated here. One of the gentlemen
in the club party met Mr.. Mcknight In
London some years ago. and remem-
bering that he was a Kansas man, wrote
to him And now Mr.. Mcknight is up
against IT, He knows what Jack rab-
bit is and knows that while he is not
exclusively a Kansas product this state
is a favorite resort of his. He has ran
sacked his library for the information de-
sired in England in vain. And in the
stress of his situation as the arbiter be-
tween two peers of England hunted up
an Eagle man yesterday fer light. He
was informed that the good luck at
tached to a rabbits foot did not neces-
sarily mean that the rabbit should be
jack All the Eagle man knew about the
matter was that any rabbits foot was
lucky, but that Jack rabbits foot was
more lucky than any other kind of
rabbit. He was also Informed that there
were degrees of luck in the locomotive
organs of the beast, for instance. that
the left hind foot was hotter stuff than
any OF the others; that the foot OF
rabbit caught at midnight was still
luckier; that if ne was caught in a
graveyard in the dark of the moon the
charm would be greater and that It
would be nothing short of magical If the
rabbit were caught by a seventh son Of
a seventh son. If anybody knows more
about the subject, he can write and give
the world the benefit of his information.

LEMONS WILL BE CHEAP
Railroads Announced a Reduction in
Rates.

Lemons will be cheaper this year than
heretofore The Santa Pc and Southern
Pacific railroads have announced reduc-
ton in the rate from California points of
o cents per hundred pounds. The rate
gees into effect today, and the roads have
announced that they will haul the lemons
from the grower TO his market for 81 per
hundred pounds. The rate viii continue
until April first. next. II IS only effective
IN car load lots and this should make
quite a difference in the price of lemons in
this section. Many cars are shipped into
Wichita every year. This is the only job
bng point in this section where lemons.
oranges and citrons are handled in such
large quantities. The trade is supplied for
hundreds Of miles south. east and west.
and the reduction in the rate Of Is cents
will make a considerable difference in
the price for which he goods can be fur
nshed to the dealer.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The stir and
excitement that has been rampant In
Washington during the past week has
arfven all thought OF Lent from the
minds OF nine people out of ten and
everybody has been on the so from start
In Gnisi.
OF course the multitudcs have been on
The aui yive for sometime in anticipation
IF Prince Henry's visit, but their minds
were diverted from that momentous event
on Saturday last by the Tillman-NcLaur-
In fight. and from that time on until this
affair was brought to a close by the Sen
ate the attention of the public has been
divided between the Prince, who came
as the emissary of his brother, the kai-
scr, in the interests Of UNIVERSAL peace,
and the two Senator's from South Caro-
lima, who represented the most fragrant
and offensive form of belligerency.
Apropos OF the visit of Prince Henry
of Prussia, to Washington, it may be
said that it would be difficult to eXag-
;scrate the rleasantness of the impress
sion made upon the Washington people
by the Prince himself. In personal ap-
l,carance he is very prepossessinS- he is
about five feet ten mines in height
weighing apparently between a hundred
and fifty-five and a hundred and sixty
pounds, slender, ;lid very graceful in all
his movements. The modesty of his
bearing struck everyone most forcihly
Rnd while a slight reserve marked him
as a man accustomed 10 the treatment
due a. person of royal birth, there was
something unusually democratic about
him. Ills whole attitude toward the Of
ficiais he met here was that OF a gentle
man who was being received by other
gentleman whom he felt sure We're glad
10 see him and whom he was Very glad
indeed to meet. Every advance that was
made 10 him he seemed eager 10 meet
half way There was "a marked absence
which was ready and frequent, impressed
Ill who saw him with a. sense of cordial
,incerity.
He was put through some very trying
.rdoaIs while here, but bore himself adj
mirably at all times. There was Very lit
lie display about his reception. he was
escorted about by detachment of cav
airy from Fort Myer and a squad of
policeman, but there was no special de-
monstration made. His first call upon
The President. Immediately upon his ar
rival in Washington. was Of the most
formal nature. as was Roosepelts recep-
ton OF him SO, also. was tie case when
The President called upon Prince Henry
AT the German Embassy, but from that
time on the attitude OF the President to-
ward his royal guest, whenever the two
were together, was one of personal
friendship.
CORDIAL WELCOME.
Everything that could be done to make
the Prussian Prince feel that he was
heartily welcome at the capitol of the
United States was done. and every con-
sidcration due the royal representative
of a great nation was shown him. but
beyond that neither the President nor the
aeop,c went. The crowds that thongc,i
the s;urbstones when the Prince drove
by showed an intensely eager curiosity
