GROUND WASBROKEN
For Stevens-Scott Grain Co.'S
Big Elevator
BE RUNNING IN SIXTY DAYS
Wichita Central Market for
Kansas Hard Wheat

The stevens-Scott Grain company have
broken ground for their new elevator.
Men and teams are at work making the
excavation for the foundation ard base
ment.
The big building win be erected on
ground belonging to the Union Stock
yards company. Just south of Twenty
first street and Chisholm creek Joint
switches viii be laid TO the elevator 50
that all the railroads Will have access
to it.
The very latest, up-to-date machinery
has been contracted for of the Great
Western Manufacturing company. and
Mr.. Stevens said last evening that his
company intended to let the contract for
the erection of the building. and that the
party getting the contract would be re-
quested to employ force enough to COM
plete the work in sixty days. He said it
was their intention to have the elevator
completed and running before the first
of October.
The outlook for a big yield of wheat in
the Kansas hard wheat belt is very prom
Using, and the Stevens-Scott Grain com
pany intend to be in the push and handle
their share of the new crop. The elevator
viii have a storage capacity of 5000
bushels, which will be increased as de-
manded. and its handling capacity viii
be equal to the Nevling elevator.
a good deal of time was consumed in
getting the railroads TO all agree to build
necessary switches. but that matter has
been finally settled and the switches VIII
be built at once. so that the material
for the big building can be delivered on
the ground where needed. The Stevens
Scott Grain company are pleased with
the location of their new elevator. be-
cause it stood high and dry above the
food that inundated a large part Of the
stockyards and packing house section.
The elevator VIII be constructed with
view TO rapid handling of grain from and
To the cars. The wheat as it comes from
the threshers is not clean enough for ex-
port or grinding. The fine machinery
which viii be placed in the new elevator
viii turn out wheat perfectly clean; just
such wheat as miliers and exporters want.
Grain dealers and exporters are coming
to recognize Wichita as the great central
market in the Kansas hard wheat belt.
and people need not be surprised If more
new elevators and Towering mills are
built here in the near future.

DoCKuM's OPENING
Was a Grand Success From Every
View Point.

View Point.
Undoubtedly the most unique and sue
cessful soda water opening ever known in
Wichita was given last Thursday after
noon and evening by Harry DockUm. pro-
prietor of the Dockum Drug Co, at 12S
North Main street. The affair was Wei
advertised and the store very prettily
and artistically decorated with potted
plants and palms. and also a goodIy guam

which gave the store a gala day" ap-
pearance.
In the afternoon Prof. Garcelon's or
chestra furnished music. and in the even
ing the lines band was stationed out
side in front of the store on large
platform, and the whole block was
crowded with people and carriages and
each person eager to hear the concert
and to reach the soda fountain.
Four dispensers were kept busy at the
fountain and as many served the custo-
mers who occupied the tables.
Mrs Dockum and Mrs. Edgeworth
greeted the ladies and presented each
with a carnation souvenir. and I'm the
front of the store Miss Agnes Davidson
and Mrs Hagen of Enid, o. T, sprayed
each visitor with Carnation perfume.
The crowds were immense. 1t being al
most impossible to get in and out
Mr.. Dockum remarked 70 an Eagle re
porter that he Is still a firm believer in
the fact that advertising pays.

BEN HUR.
Gen. Lew Wallace's Spectacle to be
Presented in Denver.


After four years OF patient waiting.
this vicinity at last is going to have
an opportunity to enjoy General Wal
lace's great play, "Ben Hur." 1t is
TO be staged at the Broadway theaser,
Denver. the weeks of October 18th
and 10Th. Matinees will be given on
Thursday and Saturday of each week.
"Ben Hur" has proved the sensa-
tion of the century in stage spectacle.
No approaching it in gorgeousness
and msssiveness has ever been at
tempted in America. 1t holds the
record for attendance and receipts in
every tlieater where it has been play
ed.
The organization presenting the
spectacle numbers $50 people,, ipolud
ing IS0 singers and dancers. and ex.
elusive of the working staff of stage
carpenters. machinists, electricians.
millwrights and live stock trainers
and attendants. The company carries
twenty two blooded horses and three
camels.
The placing onf ''Ben Hur" IN the
stage in dramatic form was attended
with many interesting circumstances.
General Wallace had strenuously op-
posed any dramstization of his i'm
mortal work. Many attempts were
made to secure his permission. but it
was not until Klaw and Erlanger had
had an interview that he consented
even to consider the matter. They
were able to convince the author that
the chariot race, the galley scene and
the representation of the Star of Beth
lehem could be put ON the stage when
the question of personation of the
Messiah WAS considered The book
of ben Hur'' is interviewer with the
life locale and incidents of the Mes
siah. No dramatization which did
not contain the tremendous dominat-
ing influence of Him could be faith
ful stage portrayal of the work. Klaw
and Erlanger submitted method of
procedure whereby the presence of the
Nazarene should not be seen. but
merely indicated by a mysterious and
almost supernatural white light of
wondrous brilliancy and power. This
solution removed all the authors OBJ
jectioDs, and Klaw and Erlanger were
authorized to have proper drama
tization Of the book prepared. The
question Of repI esentation Of the
Crucifixion, which is SO powerfully
described in General Wallace's novel,
did not arise, as Klaw and Erlanger.
as well as the author helu that this
point of the book should not be made
a part of the play, nor indeed a part
of any play. Having obtained Gen
eral Wallace's full consent, Klaw and
Erlanger engaged William Young to
dramatize the book and he has writ
ten a play which has been seen by
more people than any ever produced.

In 1896 occurred the first crusade
of Christian soldiery against the Sar-
Gems for the wrestling of Jerusalem
from infidel hands. and since that
time seven other crusades have been
undertaken. all without material re-
suit. From the crusade of 1905. led
by Godfrey dc Bouillon. sprung the
masonic order known as knights
Templar. au order which today has a
membership in the United States of
so, 900, including some of the most
illustrious men of the nation. A
movement has been recently started
with a view to sending the knights to
the Holy Land to wage war against
the Turk. The oath taken by every
Knight Templar compels him to fight
the enemy Of Christ, even unto
death,'' and the Wholesale massacres
of Christians by order Of the sultan
has aroused the American Templar to
such an extent that an expedition may
possibly be sent against him.

RECALL THE TROOPS

II it Is fact that the great Cripple
Greek "strike is broken" as the mine
owners claim it is in their published
reports it is the duty Of Governor
Peabody to recall the troops. 1t will
be an injur, to the state both finan-
cially and morally to keep the troops
in the district after the strike is brok-
en-. 1t was claimed yesterday in a
published statement of the secretary
of the mine owners association that
the strike bad been broken and that
all mines were now working few
men and inside of thirty days the
mines would be shipping their usual
amount of ore. Be that true the
militia has accomplished its purpose
and there is no longer need Of il re-
manning in the district. With a
bunch Of militia to do police duty and
assist the civil authorities there is no
reason why peace can not be main
tanned. Recall the troops and shut
off the great expense to the state.
