aNTERURBAN LINES
! TO Be BUILT SOON
Many Bids Received for Con-
tract from Engineers
WANTING TO BUILD ROAD
Company May Equip Trains
with Sleeping Cars.

1t can be definitely announced that
some time in December work will be COM
menced on the grade of the Arkansas
Valley Interurban roilway. and it viii be
rushed to an early completion. Bids have
been received from prominent engineers
all over The country on the work, but
yet the promoters have not entered into
contract with any Of the applicants.
They think it best to go slow in making
any contracts they want TO thoroughly
investigate the past records of the appH-
cants and thus be able to secure the
most competent one 1t is the intention
of the men who are behind this enterprise
and who are backing it with their money
to build a road that is modern in every
respect so they VIII be able to compete
with the large railroads now doing bust
ness in the west.
The directors of the road are at this
time more sanguine and confident Of the
ultimate success of the road than they
have been at any time since the project
has been under consideration. Elections
will soon be held in ali of the counties
through which the new electric road viii
headquarters of the company the bonds
issued which were authorized in the dit
ferent counties will carry. The people
are said to realize the great benefits that
will result from the building of the road
and are thoroughly interested and VIII
Go all in their power to have the road
built
1t is quite evident that moneyed men
think This Is a paying proposition, as
communications are received daily from
men who want to invest money in the
line. The indications are that there Will
be no trouble in disposlng Of the stock
that will be put on the market for sale
The first line will be built from Wichita
TO Arkansas City and will be sc con-
structed as to take in all Of the most
important towns between the above cities.
Later it is proposed TO extend The line
through Oklahoma down into Texas and
the company viii then put on Pullman
cars and will make a speciality Of haul

can you write shorthand?'' asked
President A. c. Jobes. Of the National
Bank Of Commerce, Of reporter for the
Eagle Yesterday. Tho banker was in
formed that the reporter could DO that
very thing. and then he squared himself
in his big ofice chair and Put o~e foot
on the desk preparatory to delivering
a message for the Eagle.
Now then. I want you to write just
what / say and publish it in the Eagle
I rather guess you will not publish IT.
You will. ali? Well you may say that
think the papers in THIS town must be
getting their gas and electric light for
nothing and that accounts for the lact
thar they do not roast Mr.. Scott for the
miserable gas and electric lights he IS
giving US.
~ h., [. had company al my house the
other night. and just as we sat down TO
supper out went the gas lights We hal
to go out to the neighoors and borrow
coal oil lamps Why, up there in our
part of the city. when one neighbor lights
the gas somebody else will be in the
dark. Now. are you getting all that down?
You are? Well | think the people Of
this city ought 10 call an inaisnation
meeting and protest against this out
rage
Il think the proper thing To bring Nj
Scott TO his senses would be 70 organize
a gas company and rur IN another plant.
1 would take stock in it myself. The
company is not furnishing electric lights
that are in any way SUPERIOR to their
uisera bic gas | was noticing the lights
in the Eagle office the other night how
dim they showed through the windows,
and I wondered that the paper did not
roast Scott"
Mr.. Jobes. the Eagle has its own dyna-
no AMI r~a'1es its own lights and they
are very fine"
e. h. is that so? Well. your windows
must be awful dirty. because the lights
look to be awful dim. And YOU make
your own lights? Well. that is news 10
me and l have been rights across the
street from you all this time. Well. the
lights here in the bank are simply miser-
able AMI We can not see anything at
night when we have occasion to do some
work and I have been thinking OF mott
fving Mr.. Scott to take them out and
we will get some coal oil lamps"
4 would just Ike TO suggest to You,
NIr. Jobes." said Assistant Cashier Frank
Russell. IN meek tore OF voice. 'tha;
YOU would better be little careful what
you say about our lights. The Stree;
Car company is furnishing Us lights mere
" for accommodation. and it is not in
the lighting business
Gee whiz. is that so?' said the banker.
and he scratched his head in bewilder-
neut. wei. If that desnt beat me Now
that is the first l ever knew c. that
thought we were getting the lghs q
SCOTS company Why Frank. the Scott
company has been collecting for thes
lights. hasn't it
NO. YOU are mistaken about that The
Scott company furnishes lights down at
my house and they are excellent
Wen. il that doesn't beat me Here
strike out that first part and ilst say
THAI the Scott company ought u furnish
us better gas" And the banker turned
his attention TO the new Republic OF

California Peaches Were Cheap While
They Lasted.

A man who was selling crates OF me-
large California peaches from a wagon
at the corner of Main and First streets
yesterday afternoon, nearly took the
breath away from persons who asked
him what they sold for
The price was s. cents per crate At
that price the mans wagon, which con-
tained. probably between seventy-hve
and 100 boxes when he first took up a po-
sition On the sereet. was sold out in less
than ain hour. He left the scene of the
sale lust as suddenly as he arrived.
People couldn't set their hands on their
money fast enough when apprised OF the
price the man asked for his fruit Some
bought two and three boxes. while even
women who were passing saw at what
remarkably low price the fruit was seel-
ing for and bought. Many OF them, no
doutyt. found that their box Of fruit was
pres{ty heavy before each reach home
There were about six dozen Of peaches
IN each box. and the average weight was
twenty-five pounds. 50 that crate grew
tolerably heavy by the time a person
ksrried it several blocks. All were sat
f,saed. however, with their bargain. as

Tricks of Paris abmen.

Paris is full of counterfeit coins, and
the cabmen make use of them quite in
geniously. You take a two franc fiacre
ride, and when you reach your hotel
you in the generosity of your heart
give the cabman francs.
You have just got within the vesti-
bule when you notice the cabman has
followed you.
He apologies, but the coin you have
given him is bad. You look at it. Yes,
it is bad. 1t is nothing but a bit of
lead.
You are pretty certain in your mind
that it isn't the coin you gave the man
which in ninety nine cases out of a
hundred it isn't-but you don't care to
haggle in hotel corridor and be sub
jected to the ignominious glances of
other folks as a foreigner who gives
poor French cab drivers bad money. SO
you take the bit Of lead and give a good
coin.
Of course the ca man has changed
the coin. You gave him a perfectly
good three franc piece at the start,
which he has in his pocket, and he has
bluffed you into giving him another 3
francs in exchange for a useless bit of
lead. To visitors to Paris let this be a

The First LawbOOk.

The we'll known Assyriologist, DR..
Hugo Winckler, published an account
Of the legislation promulgated by King
Amraphel Of Babylon, which, so far as
is known at present, was the first book
Of laws ever given to the world King
Amraphel lived $3.50 years B. G. and
is mentioned in the Bible as a contem-
porary of Abraham, so that his statutes
were drawn up fully five centuries be-
fore the laws of Moses. They number

eff a woman who sells beverages
gives bad value for the money paid
her, she shall be thrown into water.
eff wife be spendthrift or if she
otherwise neglect her duties, her hus-
band may put her away without COM
pensation, but if man put away his
wife for no other reason than that she
has no children he shall return her

shall pay the woman compensation.

Flat Life.

In such a dwelling as the average
"t1at" of the north and west the pri-
vacy of home is reduced to minimum
The footsteps of the tenants, the roll
ing of their perambulators, the cries of
their children, the varied odors of their
breakfasts, lunches and dinners, are
omnipresent and not to be banished
even by mental science. If they are
unsteady inclined, the others must lis
ten perforce, and have no other redress
than to begin counter performances
Some cheerful writer said, while a
man can sing he can work." but the
trouble often is that while he is sing
ing other people are unable to work.
Such forced participation in the lives
of others is irritating and upsetting to
the nerves, and though we may be will
ing to weep with those who weep and
rejoice with those who rejoice we
would prefer to have some choice in
the matter.-New Orleans Times Dem

Character Building q.

Character is the wool of honor from
which a coat of mail can be woven that
the swiftest arrow of shame or the
keenest knife of disrepute cannot
pierce. Every thought that enters our
mind, every act we do and every word
we utter adds a link to the golden
chain of character. The strength of a
steam engine can be estimated to with
in an ounce of it's limit, but it is i'm
possible to estimate the force of no.
BILE character. The hardest hearts are
softened and the most repulsive dispo-
sitions become fascinating. Our fail
ures and our successes help to form
reputation that may be destroyed by
an external force, but the destruction
Of character can only be effected by
some internal force.-Our Boys Maya
zine.
