Boston Woman Makes Propo-
Sition to Paramount.
$4,000 MUST Be RAISED
Il it'll Which Work on Oormi-
tory Is to Be Done.

Through a proposed endowment Of $50
made by a Mrs. Fiske of Boston, Fair
mount college is in fair way to secure
the erection of dormitory costing $1,000
Mrs. Fiske became interested in Fair
mount through the efforts of d committee
appointed by the college board to secure
endowments for new doI mitory. and
has agreed 10 make an endowment OF
$500 providing that the committee is
able TO raise the balance of the $4,000
elsewhere. She inserts d clause In the
agreement. however. saying that her en-
dowment may be used providing $4,000 is
raised.
The committee has been working indus
triOusly on the proposition and states
that everything points TO an early
alizatioR of their hopes in this direction.
They have been corresponding with a
number of persons in the east who are
interested in Paramount and from the
reports received it is apparent that there
Will be little difficulty in raising the re-
quired amount. The clause in the agree
ment made by Mrs. Ffske. stating that
her endowment may be used when $4,000
is raised, is making the work much easier
for the committee 1t is thought that
when that amount is raised work will
begin on the building The plans for
the structure will be drawn in such a
manner that wing or some other por-
ton of the building may be erected with
the $4,000 and added to when the re-
mainder of the money is secured.
A first class dormitory is about the
only thing in the way of equipment that
Fairmount lacks. 1t is conceded to be
one of the leading colleges of the state
and better facilities for taking care of
its students would be great inducement
in securing a larger attendance The at
tendance at Fairmount this year is larger
tina ever before. The musical depart
ment has developed wonderfully and
of new students are enrolled in
this department. The committee is great
ly encouraged with the prospects for
new and large dormitory and are using
every possible effort to secure the de-
sire damount of endowment.

SPEED PROMISED
PRESIDENT IRWIN HEARS FROM
OWNER OF CRESCEUS.
Great Stallion Will Be Driven for
Record Breaker.

The fair association is making great cal
Wednesday. Some good horses are going
to be present and the races are expected
to be as interesting as any held last week.
The 2:Z7 trot, the 2:23 pace and the 2:35
pace have been arranged for and other
races Will be given for the horses that are
on the grounds, notice of which will be
given later
President Irwin of the fair association
yesterday received a letter from George
II. Ketcham the owner of the great
horse. Cresceus, who is now at Cedar
Rapids, Iowa. stating that Cresceus is
in fine form and that he expects to make
his big race of the season here next
Wednesday.
Cresceus will be driven on Tuesday for
an exhibition. but his great race to beat
his record will be on Wednesday. In
this race to beat his record he will be
paced b two running horses and an auto
mobile with windbreak
George II. Ketcham was here nearly all
of last week with Cresceus, the iron race
horse of the age. and made many friends
among the horsemen and people of the
city. He is a two-tirnes millionaire and
drives the mighty racing stallion for the
fun and not for the money he makes.
Mr. Ketcham is gentleman and the
people here had confidence in him when
he said he liked the Wichita track and
that he wanted chance to make
great race here with his valuable horse.
He could not do that last week because
the track was not in good condition.
Many admirers of the harness horse said
last week that they would not have
missed seeing Cresceus trOt that fast
quarter of a mile for double the cost Of
a season ticket. If the track is in condi-
ton next Wednesday. the people will see
a race that may become one of the great
historical events Of this age of remark
