rowly Averted Ones.

It is declared by many who saw the
fog yesterday morning that it was the
greatest fog that has ever occurred in
Wichita. On account of its denseness two
electric railway cars collided on East
Douglas avenue The passengers were
considerably shaken up. but no one was
injured. as known. The fog was so dense
that pedestrians could not see across the
street, and very many hesitated long
time before attempting to cross over to
the other side. Many teams that were out
narrowly escaped smasn-ups with each
other 1t was a fog that will be long re-
membered by those who 'navigated" it.
The collision on East Douglas avenue
occurred just in front of the Manhattan
hotel, ten feet west Of the crossing. Car
No. Is, motoneered by William School,
was coming from College Hill at fifteen
minutes till o'clock Car No. 80, under
the control of Dogood, was on the track
about ready TO turn up Topeka avenue.

was going at a good rate Of speed when
the motorneer discovered the car ahead.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.

GOVERNOR BOB TAYLo

GOVERNOR BOB TAYLOR.
The thousands who have heard Gov
ernor Bob Taylor's beautiful medley, The
Fiddle and the Bow" or his charming
rhapsody, Love, Laughter and Song"
will attest his merit as an entertainer
He has scattered more sunshine and ere
ated more laughter among the amuse-
ment-lovi1g people than any man who
has graced the platform within the mem
ory of the present generation. His ideal
of an evenings entertainment is to
amuse an audience with songs, story
and picture, and the portrayal of char
acter-to hold up the mirror to human
nature, and to light the temples Of
thought with windows of fun. To him
music is the wine of soul, and
there is a melody in every sunbeam,
sunbeam in every melody"
Governor Taylor's lecture, THE Fiddle
and the Bow" is the second entertain
ment of those offered by the Wichita
Lyceum Course, and will take place to-
night at the Toler Auditorium.

CAUGHT IN THE WEB

The power of the theater is not gen
orally understood, but that it exerts on
its patrons an influence cannot be de-
MED. Books may teach pernicious doc
trines, lectures may gloss evils with a
polish that may make them appear de-
sirable to the young. but 80 per cent OF
the dramas show in vivid colors that
vice is always punished and virtue re-
warded. This is a fact overlooked by
those who decry the theaters, though it
is one mat requires no proof. Take, for
instance. the great detective play.
Caught in the Web to be presented
at the Toler one night, November Sth.
1t is a model for boys and young men,
teaching them how, by self-reliance, cour-
age aud manliness, they can bring out
a class Of wrong, and it viii assist the
youth to be honest and upright. The
vice and wickedness does not pay. as is
shown clearly in this play, and that
alone is sufficient recommendation for its
power Of good.

Incidence of the Strike.

The coal strike is likely to have some
far-reaching effects on the future fuel
supply Of this. country. It will probably
lead to a relatively, if not absolutely, less
consumption of anthracite coal.
Many manufacturing enterprises that
are now driven to use soft coal will adapt
their furnaces to it and continue to use
it. Many householders now forced to use
the cheaper fuel will probably never go
back to hard coal. In the northwest the
strike has been a boon and a boom to the
Ignite mines which are now hundreds of
cars behind their orders. The strike has
aroused public interest in all sorts Of new
fuels and has stimulated inventors to pro-
vide them. A French inventor has brought
forward process for solilifying petroleum
which may make the Texas oil fields COM
pete with anthracite In supplying clean
and economical fuel. Investigations are
being made into. the extent Of American
peat beds and methods of making the
peat available. AS makeshifts, and per-
haps as something else, the public is now
advised to soak terra Gotta bricks in kero.

is to saturate tin can filled with ashes,

This is not bad rule for DOCTORS If the
truth We're known, it would be found that
many specialist. if not everyone, fol-
lows it. The fee for valuable surgical or
medical service is, we imagine, very rare

Of the case and the true value Of the serx-
ice, Or even by the doctors reputation
Mr.. Moneybags doubtless often pays 81, 600
for what a man of moderate means re-
ceives for 800 and what the very poor
man gets for nothing. The state Of Min
Hesota maintains a hospital, where the
children Of the poor are treated for de-
formities and malformities, and the able
surgeons who attend these unfortunates
charge nothing for their services. But a
Park avenue or Summit avenue child
would hardly receive the same treatment
for any but very large fee.
By exacting large fees from those who
can afford to pay specialists can we'll at

z. Little Lolita Armour Of Chicago is most
fortunate in her parentage. Because fate
gave her such parents she is to be, cured
of a congenital hip trouble, which would
have crippled and embarrassed her all her
life had the millions of chances against
fy.~
For a fee of S15OOOO, DR.. Adolf Lorenz,
reputed to be the worlds greatest ertho-
poedic specialist, journeyed clear from
girl. and do for her what nature neglected
to do. The operation was performed yes
terday and bids fair to result successfully.
u But it appears that J. Ogden Armour
spent his $3.50, 900 for other little sufferers
as we'll as for his own little girl. He was
not thinking of them, perhaps, when he
sent for DR.. Lorenz, but he was spending
money for a good purpose, and like most
money SO spent it has brought good to
others as we'll as to him. Being In Chi
cago, DR.. Lorenz purposes to operate on
eight or ten other deformed children, with
tout charge. Thus, in effect, Armour's
$3.50, 900 is spent for many children, instead
of one. -. ,s-
It is a good rule of taxation that the
burden ought ITO be distributed according

have followed that rule in his practice. IIt
