GRASS AND FLOWERS.
Weather Man Says Wichitans Will See
Each Before Long.

Forecast for Wichita and vicinity: Part
" cloudy weather, with slowly rising
temperature. For Kansas: Cloudy and
rising temperature.
Said the weather observer: 1.-The indi-
cations now point to warmer weather.
The cold spell will gradually break and
a rising temperature will take its place
do not think that the weather is at all
unsettled and if it continues as at present
it will be considerably pleasfnter in the
next few days. The coolest weather has
been here. and now the next thing 10 look
for is grass and flowers
Clear weather is generally shown in all
sections except over the middle plateau
y gion and northern half of the Pacific
coast. The area of high pressure has
moved southwark and formed into a
Tidge that extends from Manitoba south
ward to Kansas The Pacific northwest
storm continues central over oregon. 1t
has caused a general rise in temperature
over the middle and northern plateau re-
gion. but elsewhere the temperature
changes have been slight except along the
gulf coast where a decided fall has oc-
CURED. The precipitation in the past "a
hours has been unimportant except at
Portland, ore.
The minimum temperature for the last
p hours was degrees; the maximum. %
degrees.

WICHITA OFFICERS
HELP CATCH ELOPERS
Man Is Wanted on Serious
Charge.
AT THE CITY OF MARION
Couple Arrested While En-
route to Washington.

A telegram was received by the police
yesterday from those at Marion saying
that the woman with two children and d
man, who eloped from that place, were
caught. due to the work of the police
here.
1t viii be remembered that a story was
published in yesterday mornings Eagle
10 the effect that hotel man from
Marion pointed out man ana woman 10
Policeman George Dennis here the other
day. who. it was said. had eloped from
Marion, but the officer, of course, could
not arrest the runaw ways without an order
or a warrant of some description.
In answer TO a telegram sent to Marion
BY the police the Wichita officers re-
ceived a message to place the man and
woman under arrest. 1t came too late,
however. They had left Wichita, In
Quiry found that tickets had been pur-
chased at the Rock Island station and
that the man, woman and children had
left Wichita over that road with trans
portation to Tacoma. Wash.
That news was teiegraphed 10 Marion,
also the information telling which tram
was taken. Marion officers were at the
station when the train passed through
that place yesterday afternoon and the
couple were arrested.
According to the story told the police
by the hotel keeper. the man, whose
name is Grey. is wanted on another more
serious charge than that Of eloping with
another mans wife. II is understood to
be robbery.
The woman * said to be The wife Of
weIl-to-do farmer residing near Marion.
The man and woman left Marion at about
the same time and it was suspected that
they had eloped. It is thought they came
direct to Wichita after leaving home,
with the intention Of buying through
tickets and leaving Kansas for good.

WANT FEWER HOGS.
Packers Ease Up to Build Larger
Packinu Houses.

II was given out yesterday that the
packers in this city do not want so many
hogs for the next ten days as they have
been getting lately.
Cudahy has had an open order for the
last two months. and his buyer has been
taking everything in sight Yesterday
Superintendent Brown of the Cudahy
plant informed the commission men at
the yards that he would want only from
400 TO 500 hogs daily for a week or ten
days.
It was reported at the yards that the
Insurance companies had told Mr.. Cuda-
nv that his insurance rate would be con-
eiderably reduced if he would build Il
thicker wall on the north side Of his big
cooler. and that Superintendent Brown
had put the brick masons at work tear
ing it down at once. This necessitated
his killing fewer hogs until the work is
done.
Dold will kill his usual number of hogs
and while the Cudahy improvements are
being made the Wichita packers will
want about 20o0 less hogs a week than
they have been getting California sent
in an order for hogs yesterday and II
this should be increased that would help
20 dispose of the surplus hogs, as the
western markets are the only ones that
can take hogs from this market at the
prices the Wichita packers nave been
paying Nobody would think of buying
hogs on this market To ship to Kansas
City. St. Louis or Chicago
About the only thing that stops the
Wichita packers buying hogs is the build
ing of larger packing houses. Cudahy
is improving and Dold is building an i'm
mense foundation for his big ice machine
They are both getting ready 20 kill NOR
hogs. The shippers who sell hogs on this
market know that they can do better
here than on any other market with their
hogs and they are interested in the Nich-
Sta packers and want them to buy hogs
every day in the week. sundays excepted

ments Can Be Made,

Ted Sullivan, of national baseball
fame. arrived in the city :ast night pre-
pared to bring his celebrated Paris, Tex.

viding satisfactory arrangements can be
made
Mr. Sullivan is an elderly gentleman.
perhaps fifty years. who talks business

Messrs. Flaherty & Rogers solicited me
to come here and try to make prepara-
lions for the bringing of my team to
Wichita, as l understand it is already a
member of the Southwestern League COM
posed of three cities from Oklahoma and
two of Kansas All that remains for
Wichita to do, is to get good team. 1
have one and if 1 am offered the proper
inducements / shall bring my team to
this city for the coming season. l have
several other cities in view and If /
cannot get the proper inducements, shall
negotiate elsewhere. l will see a. J.

the way Of securing grounds"
Mr.. Sullivan has done nothing except
play with and manage baseball teams all
his life The team which he proposes
to bring to Wichita won the penant in
Texas last year and is said to be one of
the fastest in the south. Prior to the
time ne was induced to go to Texas Mr..

valentine DAY
TO BE OBSERVED
School Children Will Cele-
brate Occasion Today
ALL TO EXCHANGE TOKENS
Stores Were Crowded Yester-
day with Buyers

Although st. Valentines Day does not
come until Sunday, the public schools of
the city will celebrate the day today.
1t is being planned in all the buildings
to have what are known as Valentine
boxes for the pupils. Each will be given
& box which will contain 4 pretty valen-
tine
In some of the rooms Of the various
schools the pupils will exchange boxes
with their names in them. The box they
get will be their valentine. In this way
the pupils. will be able to demonstrate TO
their schoolmates their kindly Affections
and remembrance.
Some of the schools will have programs
These programs have been very carefully
prepared and will be elaborate and inter-
esting in every respect There will be
vocal and instrumental music given,
which no doubt will be quite interesting.
Another feature of considerable note will
be explanatory talks by the teachers and
others as to the origin and additional ira
dittons concerning ST Valentines Day.
There will also be quotations from varl
Gus authors in regard to what they have
said and written about the day.
Yesterday after school hours the stores
that carry valentines were crowded with
eager girls and boys. Every one of them
seemed to be DESTROYS of getting valen-
tine that would make some one feel good
and all were counting on a regular jubi-
lee at school today. The comic feature
in buying has been ignored considerably
and it was particularly noticed that the
pupils who were making purchases yes
terday were buying something nice. and
something which will make their donees
keep an endearing feeling for them in
the years TO come.
So today when the hour arrives for the
Valentine boxes to be given away OF eX
changed and the music fills the rooms,
and older minds are rehearsing the sig
nifcance of celebrating the day, the
school children of Wichita may know
that they have been graciously remem-
bered by their admirers and lovers, even
though these lovers may be only mother.
father. teacher or some philanthropically
inclined person.
