TWO NOTABLE CHANGES.
Deceived Republican and a Democrat
Swing to Mclean.

Two more notable additions to the Ben
Mclean forces were made yesterday by
voluntary action-one a prominent Dem
ocrat and one venerable Republican
who admitted that he had been deceived
by the hot air committee of the "Citi-
zens" party until he had read the facts
about the bonds in yesterdays Eagle.
The Democrats business man of high
standing-came because he is satisfied
that Finlay Ross has not done the right
thing by attempting TO get up a revolt
against Ben Mclean. Besides he
said, Il have never had any sympathy
with that crowd who think of talk
that's what 1t is, talk-that Finlay Ross
was the best mayor Wichita ever had.
We have a thousand men in Wichita

that we have only one honest man in

MORE RAIN WILL FALL.
That Is Weather Mans Prediction
for Today.


Rain, rain, rain, more rain Rain is
about the only thing the weather man
is able to see these days. Very little falls
but it keeps threatening all the time and
that is 4 whole lot worse. The clouds
and the weather man keep the people of
this town jumping about all the time.
II loks like it might rain within the next
five minutes. A woman wants TO go
down town. She gets out on the front
porch and takes a look at the clouds and
decides IL will rain before she can reach
a car. She proceeds TO hunt up her
macintosh. goloshes, umbrella and put on
a rainy day skirt and slides forth TO meet
what comes. Everything comes except
rain and sunshine. She Carries d pair Of
goloshes and half a ton of mud around
all afternoon, a heavy macintosh and an
umbrella and it doesn't rain a drop. She
meets friend and they leave ali rain ma
terial in a store and go walking. Before
they have gone two blocks it begins to
rain. If it is man that sees rain COM
ing when he starts for town he goes back,
hunts up his oldest pair of overshoeS and
an umbrella with a hole in it, misses his
car. Swears a few swears under his breath
and walks carrying the umbrella open all
the way. Not a drop of rain. A friend
gets a bunch that it will rain and bor-
rows that umbrella and it does rain
pitchforks and sawlogs.
Minnesota and Montana were the only
spots where the sun was shining yester-
day with rain falling at many points and
the weather man could only offer the
hope that it may clear up tonight but
not likely. he temperature would raise
but the real thing. he said would happen,
that is rain is slated for Wichita today.

ENGINEER IS
EXPECTED TODAY
To Investigate Proposed
Routes of Interurban Road.
HENRIETTA WANTS ROAD
And Will Make Proposals for
Southern Terminus.

G. W. Baumhoff, the railroad expert
of St. Louis who has been hired by the
interurban electric line, will reach this
city today to make an investigation of
the proposed route and decide on its prac-
ticability for an interurban line. Mr..
Baumhoff has had years Of experience in
building railroads, and especially electric
lines in the east. He is d civil engineer
who is accepted as authority on all sub
jects of this nature. For a number of
years his work has been almost entirely
confined to building interurban lines and
his knowledge of this work makes him
an especially valuable man for the local
company TO secure to direct their work.
Mr.. Baumhoff will be driven over the
country from Mcpherson and Arkansas
City and over all the proposed routes TO
these points. The data of grades, popula-
ton, production, cost of power and all
matters which must be considered in
building and operating line of this kind
will be furnished him. This data has
been carefully prepared by a special COM
mittee of the board of directors of the
company.
After a thorough investigation of the
proposed routes and the cvl sideration of
the data furnished Mr.. Baumhoff will
make his report as to what he considers
the best route, the one most practical
and the one that would yield the best
returns. Many letters have been received
from civil engineers from all parts Of
the country saying that the report made
by Mr.. Baumhoff will be as good as could
be procured from any man, and the di
rectors should rest assured that he will
give them the best route. and from indi
cations at present the route that would
yield the best returns. Mr.. Baumhoff is
well versed in these matters and invest
ment companies take his reports. without
an exception.
The town of Henryetta, /. T, wants
the interurban to strike their town. Hen
ryetta is about seventy-fiye miles north
of McAlester, in the heart of the coal
fields. G.. w. Smith, secretary of the
Chamber Of Commerce, is in receipt of
a letter from the secretary of the Com
mercial club of that town, saying that
the business men have announced their
intention of securing the route If posi-
bic. and asking the company 10 make
them q proposition as to what could be
expected of their town to have the road
touch them. Mr.. Smith has written, ask
ing what they We're able and at present
willing to offer the company. Henry
eta wants the southern terminus and
will do their best to get ii.
