Today on the Paramount field will occur
the third game of the Friends-Fairmount

for playing the fourth game.
The management of the two schools
regret very much the trouble at their
last game and promise the public who
attend their games that in the future
there will be no cause for any trouble OF
this kind to arise again. There will be
special police on the grounds to take care

games played and tied the last one. Fair
mount has won nine out Of fourteen
played and also tied the last one.
The public who attend today are assured

MYRoN BOYLE is SELECTED.
Will Be Private Secretary to Okla
homa Congressman.

A dispatch from Guthrie last night to
the Eagle conveyed the information that
Myron Boyle the Eagles representative at
Guthrie had been rendered and had ac-
cepted the position of private secretary
to Congressman Bird Mcclure.
The Eagle regrets 10 lose the services of
Mr. Boyle but at the same time it may
as well be admitted that the force in the
office last night were pleased over the
news. AIR. Boyle IS q splendid young
man and the general verdict of the Eagle
crowd was that Mr. Mcclure had made
a good selection.
Afyron Boyle is a Wichita boy and was
raised on a farm near Valley Center in
this county His parents moved to this
city several years ago and Myron at
tended Fairmount college and the
Friends university. He is now twenty
five years OF age and has been with the
Eagle nearly five years two of which have
been in Oklahoma. He made many warm
friends in Oklahoma, while doing good
work for the Eagle He is reliable in
any position and shis, taken with the
fact that he is a bright, industrious young
man, peculiarly fits him for the position
to which he has been appointed.
He has a great many friends in this
city who will be glad TO hear Of his selec-
ton as private secretary to the delegate
in congress from Oklahoma, which viii
in the very near future be one Of the
grandest states in the union. The people
I'm this city will be pleased over Mr..
Boyle's promotion. and they viii feel ike
congratulating Mr.. Mcclure on the wis
dom of his selection.

CROPS LOOK GOOD.
Col. Tom Russell Reports Things In
Good Shape in Kingman County.

SOOO 0iidpG III fNnSfndH SCOUtfs
Colonel, Tom Russell came in yesterday
from his ranch in Kingman county. He
resides east OF Belmont on the lands
which divide the Ninnescah and Chicka-
kia rivers. Both of these streams are
not unusually high and are behaving well
There has been some loss in this vicinity
through lightning killing cattle but no
special loss from high water. Speaking
of the wheat prospects, Col. Russell says
that in his locality in Kingman county,
is now the finest wheat crop that ever
numbered the ground. That on his way
to Wichita via the Missouri Pacific rail-
way and Conway Springs, he only saw
one poor piece OF wheat II is true that
in some Of the fields the wheat has been
hurt by water standing on it. yet gen
orally. the wheat IS fine. The plant is
heading out finely ard is apparently free
from rust. II will take about four weeks
from this date and after the wheat is
headed out TO ripen the same. Gel. Russell
SAYS that the wheat harvest and the cut
ting OF hard wheat will begin about or
lust prior to July /. \ few weeks OF fire
weather with the present moisture in tie
ground will make a wonderful crop with
a full fine berry. Present conditions ara
not AT all alarming and he looks for a

RAIN FELL EIGHTEEN DAYS
Kansas Visited by Eighteen
Windstorms During May


Considering the many showers and
heavy rains during the month Of May II
will be surprising to many TO know that
the total rainfall for Wichita during that
month was only 7-s7 inches. Many esti-
mates have been made by individuals,
some of whom placed the rainfall for the
month as high as 10 or Z inches, and
those who had to wade around in the
water have placed the estimate even
higher; but the above figures are those
given out by the weather department
and are as nearly correct as it is possible
to get.
Rain fell on IS days during the month,
IL of these days being cloudy, IA
partly cloudy and were clear. In view
of the murky weather and drizzling rain
of the past two weeks, 1t will be hard to
remember what six days in May were alb
solutely clear. The lowest temperature
for the month was "a degrees. on the Cd,
and the highest was sl degrees. on the

The tornadoes seem to have followed a
vast cyclonic circle, beginning in Okla

ending in southern Illinois. The first tor

and before moving northward into Kan
