SHOTS
FIRED I
RANG OUT CLEAR ON MIDNIGHT
AIR DID THE REPORTS, BUT
HOW NO ONE KNOWS
Report That Man Had Been Shot At
tracted Large Crowd to the Senate
Saloon, But Investigation Did
Not Clear Mystery.

AS the hour Of II approached last
night there was big commotion on
pike street in front OF the Senate sa-
loon aud a large crowd gathered. Two
pistol shots had been heard on that street
at thai point and the report got abroad
that i man had been shot. Two police
men rushed to the scene having heard
the shots, and, after closing the door OF
the hallway leading to the upstairs room
tho braveiy went mp, opened the door,
expecting to find a corpse, but they look
ed in vain. Searching here and there
they failed to find any one who looked
like 4 dead man, and finally they gave
up the Investigation.
That the two shots were fired il GER
tain, and that they were fired at some.
one or something is The general belief,
i but no one could find out who fired them,
or whether any one had been killed OF
wounded Some say the shots We're fired
IN the rear Of the building; others assert
they were fired in the upstairs room
and tbat-they were the result of quar-
rel over i game Of cards, but be that a.
| it may There are not outward signs o.
any one having been injured.
The mystery connected with the shoot.
ing was not cleared, when it was found
tirat there was a blind stairway in tht
building. but thai explained why no on'
was found who could retlte the inciden
Of the shooting.

GEORGE A. RYAN HERE TO SEE
ABOUT TRACK.
Editor Of The Horseman Visited Fair
Grounds.

George A. Ryan, editor of The Horse
man, published at Chicago and recog-
nized everywhere as authority on racing
matters, was a Wichita visitor yesterday.
Mr.. Ryan called at the Eagle office
last evening, after spending the day in
investigating the report that the Wichita
fair grounds race track is short He
said: After looking over the state
ments made by several surveyors and
sworn TO before nOtaries pubic, and Wis
iting the fair grounds. am satisfied that
the track here is fully one mile in cir
conference"
In addition TO visiting the race tracks
Mr. Ryan called on different persons
who were present at the time CTesceus
lowered the worlds record and con-
versed with them in regard TO the time
made. He met G, NJ Irwin. Secretary
of the fair association.
Mr.. Ryan a4c a lengthy talk with
Farmer DOlit:e about the tine made
by Cresceus. Farmer was directly IN
der the wire when Cresceus finished and
caught tie time exactly, as did the Of
fetal timekeepers.
This is Mr.. Ryan's first trip to Wich-
tia, and after visiting the fair grounds
he spent a portion OF the day I'm driving
over the city. He remarked favorablv
on the busy appearance OF the city and
said he had no idea that Wichita was so
large. He thinks it one of the prettiest
towns he has ever had occasion TO visit
MIR. Ryan will leave this morning over
the Rock Island for his home at Chicago.

PROPERTY is ACTIVE.
And There Are Not Enough Men to
ELL Positions.

That Wichita at the present time is
enjoying a period Of prosperity is fully
made clear by the present condition OF
the real estate market. Interviews with
several of the prominent real estate men
Of the city brought about the fact that
there are very few houses in the city
for rent and that the demand is so great
that the dealers have difficulty in sup
plying the wants of the many who are
coming to Wichita. Houses rem quickly
and at coed prices
There is also plenty of work in and
around the city. Mr. Kenworthy OF the
firm Of Kenwor.hy & Cole says that he
always has positions open and has ex-
perienced some difficulty in finding men
to fill many positions. These are all
good indications OF Wichita's continued
prosperity and is what helped to give il
the position that is now holds in the
western business world.

An Untidy Girl.

She comes tripping home from
school, rushe into the house. throws
her hat on chair, her cloak on an
other, and rubbers in the middle of the
floor, gives her mamma a kiss, and
then hurries upstairs TO change her
dress. Her room is all topsyturvy,
nothing in its place, and mamma has
to be summoned to try and find the
necessary change of wearing apparel.
Such q girl is laying a good foundation
for an untidy. slovenly life. These
habits will stick to her, and should
she marry a man who is neat tidy and
orderly. she will be a domestic thorn
in his side continually. Somebody must
"straighten up" after such a girl, and
usually it is the tired mother who must
make the weary steps. Home training
has much TO do in remedying such
habits Girls and boys, too, should be
taught the value of system of putting
things in the proper place. Such train
ing will be of infinite value in after
years. Let all the girls who read this
resolve to have a place for every
thing. and everything in its place. and
be sure and carry the resolution into
everyday life.-Pittsburg Observer.

The Kind Little Girl

Mary and her aunt were walking
! along a. busy street one afternoon. As
they passed a confectioner's shop auntie
said: '''-'' 'ie
Mary, would you not like a cup of
tea and a cake?"
on, yes" Mary answered. And thew
turned back to go into the shop.
Just as they did so Mary noticed a
boy with white face and poor clothes
staring with hungry eyes into the win
dow, in which many nice things were
"Auntie," she said. Il think that I
should like to give that poor boy my
cake. He seems terribly hungry"
All right, dear" said auntie, but
You know you cannot both have it. If
you like to spend the money for him,
here it is
Then Mary quickly went into the shop
and came out with a cake in one hand
and paper bag of buns in the other,
ooth of which she gave to the boy, and.
joining her aunt, they walked away.
Auntie could easily have found anoth-
er coin for the tea, but she rightly felt
that her little niece would be happier if
she had given up something of her own
that she might do her little deed of
kindness, so she only said: Il hope
that the boy has a little sister with
whom to share his bag of buns

Aunt Busy Has Her Saw.

Dear Nieces and Nephews: Aunt
Busy has not heard from any of the
children in Eureka, Utah, for ever Sc
long Now, what is the matter? For
a long time she had number of dear
nieces and nephews there, but very
suddenly their letters disappeared from
Aunt Busy's department.
Perhaps tie Eureka boys are like a
few of Aunt Busy's Ogden nephews.
Perhaps they have taken to wearing
frock coats, high collars, and pro
nounced" neckties.
Should this be the case then Aunt
Busy need never expect to hear from
the nephews, but she cannot imagine
what the Eureka nieces are wearing to
make them forget her.
What has become of the dear lads,
and what has become of the dear las
sies Aunt Busy sits patiently at her
iesk day after day waiting for letters.
We're it not for a few dear faithful
children who never neglect her, Aunt
Busy would indeed be very "much-to-
oe-pitied" old woman.
