Plumed Hats Are Good Investments.
Entire Gowns Made of Lace.
A plumed hat is about the best mil

Elbow sleeves continue to be most

Of a most fancy description, trimmed

narrow velvet or Powered ribbon.
Entire gowns of ecru lace never go

Spangled tulle over pale colored satin

The usual persistent rumors are
floating from up Portland way concern
ing the building Of tn o. R. & N. into
the Lewiston country by completion of
the lewiston Riparia branch. This

scheme of President Mothers and he

and before the head officials on every
occasion.

the near future the people of Lewiston

Speaking of his work in connection
with the road the Walla Walla Union

"Moher had always held the view
that the Northern Pacific had actually

Work is progressing nicely on the Pat

company to have it completed within ten
days. This line Will be built half mile

Of their inconvenience in having to walk

The Wichita Street Railway and Light
company is carrying ont all its proposed

promised to the city. Just what improve
ments and changes will be made are not
known at this time In q while the d.
rectors of the company will hold a meet
ing in Wichita and will then consider
further arrangements as to extensions.
That several important extensions and
changes should be made is to he learned
when one investigates the matter in the
leastwise impartial manner. The stock
yards people Will. no doubt. present their
claims 10 the directors when they come
for an extension of the line to the yards.
At present they argue that it is quite I'M

yards are compelled to walk nearly half
mile TO get there.
For several other parts OF the city. It
is said. some few changes will be asked
and for these reasons the coming of the

SUNDAY PROPOSITION BOBS UP
ANOTHER HITCH IN ARRANGE
MENTS FOR BASEBALL CLUB.
Grounds Will Not Be Built Unless
Team Can Play Every Day in
the Week

The question of Wichita securing my
base ball club for the coming season,
now rests on the subject of whether we
can play Sunday ball" said Ted Sullivan
last night and his statement was re-
peated when Cash Henderson was called
up by telephone.
1t was thought that all arrangements
were completed for the installation Of
Mr. Sullivan's team until the matter Of
playing ball Sunday bobbed up.
I'VE can secure Mathewsons pasture
for the games, said Mr. Sullivan, but
we must have the assurance Of the pub
lie that we will not be interfered with
For my part" he continued. Il see no
reason for there being any protest, but
| am informed that some were made
during former years If such is the case
and there is any likelihood of a REPETITION
why, all the people have to do is to
say so. / won't bring my club here
However | see no reason for complaint.
The games will be played as far from
residences as we can lay out the diamond
in Mr.. Mathewson's pasture. There will
be no rowdyiSm permitted, no swearing.
there will be no drinks sold and not even
a cigar. In my opinion good clean base
ball game is much more elevating for
the average young man Of the day than
many other places in the city where he
is likely TO drift without any other form
of amusement. Then again q good sun
day game of base ball would attract Wis
itors To your city. They all spend their
money Every little helps. you know"
Mr. Henderson said: You can say that
whenever we have the assurance Of the
public that there will he no protests
against sunday playing. the work Of
building the grand stand and ferce viii
begin. Without Sunday games the prop
osition would not be a success. The ma
jority of Wichita's population are men
who work for a living. Sunday after
noon is the one OF week in which they
have TO do with as they please
Mr Sullivan left Wichita last night for
Parsons. He will not return here unless
Mr. Henderson and the remainder OF
the gentlemen interested in the PROPOSE
ton to furnish grounds. can get the as
surance that the Sunday games Will be
permitted.

FORTY CASES OF
MEASLES REPORTED
Otherwise City Is in Healthy
Condition.
ONE CASE OF SMALL P0X
Colored Man with Disease
Comes from Parsons

Although Wichita is in very healthy
condition otherwise. there are at present
exactly forty cases Of measles thai have
been reported 70 the health officers, mora
~ nearly half than there have been at
any other time during the season., said
Richard Cogdell last evening
Outside of the measles he continued.
there is very little sickness. Several
cases of scarlet fever have been reported.
hut in most instances the patients are
rapidly recovering and there have been
no new cases reported recently
With nothing but measles to keep the
health officers busy ana on the so tack
ing up quarantine cards, the health Of
ficers are very well pleased with the
healthy and apparently clean condition OF
the city. Elsewhere there are many cases
of scarlet fever and smallpox
The first case of smallpox during the
entire winter came to the notice of the
shape of d colored man who is afflicted
with the disease. For the first time IL
months the pest house was opened for the
admission Of a patient.
The mans name is Nathan Bright and
he arrived in Wichita yesterday after
noon at 1870 o'clock. he says. from Par
sons. Robert Pryor, policeman, saw the
man when he alighted from the train and
his attention was attracted by the broken
out condition of the mans face. Upon
being questioned Bright told the officer
that he did not know what allied him. but
that he felt sick. He said that his feet
were in the same broken out condition as
his face. The officer quickly surmised
that he had the smallpox ana he was hur-
ried to the pest house.
At Parsons, Bright said, he worked
with a gang of railroad section men. Two
were taken i'll with the disease before he
left. but he had no idea that he had
become a victim. Brights case Ms said
to be but light attack and only for
the fear that he might spread the disease
elsewhere he was taken TO The pest house
Immediately upon his arrival.
