G~olds5oro,N y. c., June 3.-Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Edwards celebrated the 25th ar
! niversary Of their marriage last night
in thei~ lovely home on William street,
which had been handsomely decorated
and brilliantly illuminated for the &C.

home and We're surrounded by loving
children. a~ffectiorate relatives and de-

EgueStS We're uShered into the spacious

Mendelssehn's wedding march. The
guests enjoyed a sumptuous repast
seated at tables conveniently arranged.
After a number of cordial toasts a

guests repaired to the parlors again,
where the remainder of the evening was

the large number of their friends all
over the country and to the cordial es-
TEEN in which they are held.
Mayor Hood HIS notified the owner of
the Old Great Eastern" tina the city
hall has been completed and that the
old unsightIy building must come down.
The owner refuses 10 take down the
building on the ground that a market
house has not beer erected according
TO contract The question OF removing
the building nov rests with the city
authorities. There are TWO ways in
which TO get rid OF the nuisance, one
is. that the city can condemn the prop
erty as a nuisance and tear II down
and submit the damages. if any, to
arbitration. 1t would be a hard task
10 find a board Of arbitrator in the
state TO award any damage. The prop
erty would be worth m re with the
building removed. The other PROPOSE
ton is for the city TO enter suit against
the owner OF the property for failure
10 comply with his contract. This
would still stand as an eye-sore. The
board of aldermen will meet tomorrow
night and this question should be care
fully considered. If the old unsightIy
shanty was a ource OF revenue TO its
owner there would be some excuse for
wishing it to stand, but inasmuch as it
is worth nothing TO no n in the world
like it is, there can be no object for
wishing it to remain, except to mock
the city authorities and defy the wishes

UPSTAIRS
HORSE ATTEMPTS TO CLIMB
FLIGHT OF STAIRS.
Woman Narrowly Escaped Runaway
by Flight.

Many peculiar runaways have occurred
in Wichita and horses have been known
to attempt running over street cars and
climbing trees. but never until yesterday
was A horse known TO try to climb a
flight of stairs with a buggy hitched to
him. However, a horse concluded to
break the record yesterday and selected
a stairway in fhe Bayless block for his
trial.
A Mrs. Floy was sitting in a trap IN
front of the Bayless block yesterday
waiting for a friend when she saw A run
away horse hitched to a light delivery
wagon tearing madly up Emporia avenue.
The runaway horse was on the sidewalk
and fearing 1t would strike her buggy,
Mrs. Floy dropped the reins and sprang
across the sidewalk into the stairway
just ahead of the frightened horse Mrs
Floy was thoroughly frightened and bur
ried up the steps. She stopped for an
instant. thinking the horse would go by
but instead he came crashing up the steps
behind her and she concluded il would be
safer on the second floor. She ran 10
the top of the stairs and fell there in a
faint. The occupants Of the building
Were aroused by this time and went to
her assistance. Meanwhile the horse was
playing a tattoo on the stair steps The
doors We're in front Of him and
the delivery wagon behind. The horse
was finally taken out but he left his
marks on the stair steps. During the ex-
element the horse driven BY Mrs Floy
ran away but was caught before it did
any damage.

BRIEFS FILED
BY RAILROAD.
They Have Created Conditions
at Kansas City.
THESE MUSTBEMAINTAINED
Decision Is Expected From
Commissioners WithinaMonth
THESEM USTBEMAINTAINED

| Yesterday City Attorney Helm received
copies of the briefs of the Atchison, To-
| peka and Santa Fe and the Missouri Pa
| cific, filed before the Interstate Com
| merce commission. The limit for fling
these briefs was April 1. and these are
the only ones so far received. 1t is not
known whether any others were fled on
the day set or not.
When the oral arguments were made
before the commission, a month ago, the
railroads were given until April ! TO file
their briefs of argument in each case.
The citys case was complete.
In the brief submitted the railroads &C
knowledge that they have created a
basing point at Kansas City, and have
created conditions at that point which
exist nowhere else, and in their briefs
they claim that it is proper for them to
keep up the condition and aid it. II is a
sort Of reasoning in a circle. They have
created a condition and must keep this
condition as they have created it.
The companies further claim that COM
petition at Kansas City makes il neces-
sary for lower rates at that point, and the
volume of business must also be consid-
cred, and the Missouri river makes Kan
sas City basing point from which
rates for considerable territory are
made.
The railroads claim that the rates are
reasonable. from the above causes. There
are many lines terminating in Kansas
City which bid for business, especially on
wheat and flour for export, and some of
the roads can afford 10 haul grain and
flour cheaper to the east and south be-
cause of the re-iosding These roads
bring lumber and merchandise from the
south and far east They make lower
rates on grain east and south in order to
have something to haul back and not
carry empty cars.
The Missouri Pacific in its brief con-
corning the sugar rates from Colorado
points. states that the rates TO Wichita
and Kansas City have been made the
same since the filing of the complaint,
while before the rate was 21s cents higher
to Wichita than to Kansas City. AS the
contention was that the rates should be
the same to Wichita or even lower. the
company asks that the case be dis
missed.
Regarding the coal case from the Pitts
burg and Minden district. the Missouri
Pacific claims that in order to place this
coal on competitive basis at Kansas
City with coal mined near Kansas City,
the rate must be lower, and that coal
from this district TO Kansas City is
hauled in train-load lots, while to
Wichita few cars are hauled at a time
And they further argue that in Kansas
City they load their coal cars with sand
and mining machinery for the return trip,
while to Wichita they haul the cars back
to the mines empty.
decision is expected in all of the
Wichita rate cases soon after the first of
May.

strong. intelligent, broad-minded man,
born and reared in Kansas, educated at
Harvard by his own efforts and coming
of stock that has stood for more than
two centuries for all that is good in con-
sentative popular government. His two
years service in the council. coupled with
the extraordinary interest he has taken
in the statistics of Wichita and in BOOM

a man needed in the active management

Isely would be stab at that which

Mr.. Freeman One Of Regular Nom

Today the voters of the Third ward
should not forget that there are two Re
publican candidates running for the coun-
Gil in that ward. There is no conflict be-
tween them. Mr.. Pierce, who so ably
represents the Third ward now, is run
ming for the long term, and Mr.. II. F.
Freeman for the short term. The enemy
IS trying TO confuse the voters by insin-
uating that Mr.. Freeman is an irregular
Republican. He is not. On the contrary
he received square Republican nomina-
ton, and stands squarely on the Republi-
can platform. Mr.. Freeman is an edu-
Gated. cultured citizen, devoting his life
and his energies to the useful pursuit OF
training the lives of young men along
business lines ana fitting them for useful
careers. He is connected with the staff
of one of the business colleges. and is a
man eminently we'll fitted to make a
clean, progressive city councilman.

ton. Guilty or not guilty. they expect
1t. They let it in one ear and out the
other. They acquire the corresponding
habit of not minding it. Let their
father speak once and they jump to
obey him. Their mother may order
them a dozen times, but they get into
the way of thinking that she is not IN
earnest until she begins to upbraid
them, and they wait for this signal be
fore they move at her command.
Her first care in the correction of
this habit is to control herself. Let
her give no order that she does not i'll
tend to enforce. LET her tell her chill
dren to do d thing only once and let
her resolve not to SCold them, whether
they be good or bad, docilc or diSobedi-

she will find to her surprise, that she
will have little difficulty in conquering

select smooth, round bottle and wrap
the fabric around it as tightly as pos
sible without injury. This will prevent
Its Wrinkling at all in the washing.
When it is smoothly and evenly rolled
baste it carefully here and there to
keep it in place; then wrap q piece of
clean white muslin about this and
baste it also quite firmly Then tie
stout string around the neck of the bot
