H. II. KURDOCK, Editor.
SUXDAY MORNING. JULY 4.
ti.o nrnaoni lolnirranh editor of the
Wichita Eagle is a good one. His
(.n.a rsp feWrftins arc by far the
best in the state. Wilson County Cit
izen. Coming, as this docs, from the raoBt
n.riminntin(r editorial writer in
Kansas, our vanity is accordingly
tickled. ;
The population of Wichita is 20,129.
and its taxiblc valuation lacks only
$76,000 of amounting to four million
dollars. It is the third city of Kaasas.
Wilson County Cili7en.
Name the first and second, please.
Wichita is the first city in Kansas in
everything that goes to make up a
city, except in the number of its pop
ulation, and we are not sure that wo
don't lead in that particular.
While the senate was considering
some amendments to the legislitive
appropriation bill, Senator Allison
took occasion to contradict the ptatc
ments made on the floor of the houe
that that body had Paved $800,000 by
cutting down the appropriations in
the bill, and showed that tho saving
was not the result or Dcmocratice con
only but from other causes wholly
irrelevant to party politics. Thus,
one by ouc, the bubbles of cowrcit arc
punctured and democratic boasting is
dissipated like the mists.
Miss Rose Cleveland, iu a letter to
the publishers of the Chicago iiuga
zinc.Literary Lifc.rclatlve to assuming
cdilorial charge of that publics ion,
pays the wc?t a very high compli
ment in the following spntencc: "I
hnvn nlivnvo fllOUht VCrV llizllly Of
tlm wMtmi nconle from the brilliant
types I met in Washington. The
business of conquering new regions
briugs forth ami develops the finest
elements of character in the western
man, who is rejuvinated by contact
with a soil that seems to throb with
electricity." When Mis3 Cleveland
combs west and U brought in cou'act
with its electrifying soil she, too, will
no doubt becomo rejuvinated and her
sparkling scintillations become more
brilliant. The subtle eouitic of the
staid and prim tocial regime of the
cast tint has given bent to her mode
. of thought will be dibsipatcd by Jho
fresh atmosphere of the west that has
been rarillcil by the cli-rtrical currents
of new thoughts and aspirations. In
conquering tho new regions ol the
west it will be a wonder if f-hc, hcr-f-elf,
is not made a captive.
TOOLISH TALK.
A reliable business man from Marion
county iufornio no that it is being rep-
rpipiitoil bv Ncwlon liarties thit if
certain townships between Marion
Center and Newton will vote bonds
for a new line for the Chicago and
Eock Island via Newton, that the lat-
tor nlaee will make un the difference
between the county bonds voted by
Marion and that the road will be de
flected to Newton, leaving out l'cabody
and Wichita, and that Newton has
pledges to that effect. Such talk is
the merest rot. The Chicago and
Rock Islaud will romc directly to
Wichita and piaclically over the
Omaha and Abilene line. There is no
questiou about. In fact tho Chicago
and Uock Island fitht determined to
come into Kansas largely through
efforts made by representative busi
ness men of Wichita. This city has
been one of their principal objective
points from the ery Mart. As for
tho Rock Islaud management no one
need have any Tears that it will play
false to any representation or prom
ises made by it.

To the Editor ortbe Katie.
In memoriam of Clinton Ralph Trc
ler, who leaving Whichita, where he
had gouo for medical aid, at 8:30 a. m ,
Tuesday, Juno 28th, arricd at home
10:30, n few minutes before ho died;
aged 25 years. While coming home
he seemed perfectly conscious, and ad
miring and talking of the objects be
fore him, liille thinking hi- eyes would
be closed iu death to soon. Glancing
back in life's narrow pith a jcar ago,
we tec this loved one full or ambition,
his heart throbbing at tho thought of
the work that laid before him iu life.
He had, through his own energy,
gained a good reputation, yet he liim
gred for more knowledge that ho
might be more uclul to hi country
and the many friends who surrounded
him. Oh, the pride that lurked in
the parents hearts as they looked ou
their true and noble son. Ho
walked with a quick jet firm step,
and his carriage was erect, which
spoke of true manhood at heart, but
consumption, that dread disease which
lias blasted so many lives, hunted him
out of his hippy aild apparently safo
abode. Slou ly ho faded ; each second,
2ach minute, each hour ho became
weaker; each day when the sun rose
in the far ea-t, throwiug a glorious
light on all nature, unking the world
appear more kiud, ho seemed to gain
uewvigor, but a9 it glided far above
his head and eauk into the west, the
fearful di-eac was slowly doing its
work separating tho soul and body.
And so tho days pissed until a year
went by, and with all the pride and
ambition he yet retained he could not
keep the enemy nt bay, and now ho
lies with the seal of death upon his
brow. He has at last fouud a safe re
treat and a full fruition of all his hopes
with tho Giver of all knowledge. As
wo laid him away to rest the rain
came gently dowu from heaven, as if
to soften the clods as they fell on his
loved and lifeless form. But, oh 1 the
mourncVs. The father and mother,
who had reared this boy (as he yet
seemed to them) with such care ; the
brothers and sisters. Oh I God their
anguisliA-and 6orrow, their hearts
wrung to almost bleeding, how could
they give him up I This brother and
son whom they had loved so long.
But, with a second thought, they
could see him where love, joy and
comfort reign, waiting patiently for
them there as a bright star beckoniug
to them to keep in tho path which
leads to him.
Aid for the C. Wood Da is or Itock
Island line is being voted all through
the northeast part of the state. The
date lor submitting the proposition to
Barber county has not been decided.
If we bad that road wc would have
a competing line and a direct one to
Chicago. There is hardly a doubt
bat that it will receive the aid whea
it k called for. Cresset.

Benders Is concerned only they were
all killed.
A QUEER RELIC
John Swiuton is furnished tho fol
lowing peculiar prediction of an as
trologer, originally published in a tri
weekly of Jamaica, in 1879:
"In 1887 tho star of Bethlehem will
once more be seen in Casseopia's chair,
and it will be accompanied by a total
eclipse of the sun and moon. This star
only makes its appearance every 315
years. It will illumine the heavens
and exceed iu brilliancy even Jupiter
when iu opposition to the suu, and
therefore nearer to tho earth and
brightest. The marvelous brilliancy
nfthRRtar of Bethlehem in 1887 will
surpass any of its previous visitations.
It will be seen even at noonday shin
ing with a quick flashing light the en
tire year; after which it will disappear,
not to return to our heavens until the
year 2202. This is the star which shouo
so brightly in the year4 B.C., and is
the star which illumed the heavens at
the nativity of Christ. The apperance
of this star, accompanied as it will bo
by solar and luuar crlip3cs together
with the baleful influence that follows
the position which Mars and Saturn
will then occupy, will cause a universal
war. North America will be invovled
iu civil strife, and a leign of terror
will prevail iu the Allautic states, un
less a Napoleon shall arise to quell it.
There will be a war of classes the
rich will array themselves against the
poor and vice versa everywhere."
ROYAL SUICIDES
There have been comparatitely few
instances uf suicide among the occu
pauls of the thrones of modern times.
The nio-l teceiit ciso wasihat of Ab
dul Aziz, sultan of Turkey, who killed
hinirelfin June, 187C, by opening the
uiiiofhi-arm with a pair of j-eiesors.
His riibjecls had rebelled agaiu-t
him, and the council had determined
to remote him and appoint his nephew
Murad as sultan iu his stead.
In 18G8, Theodore, emperor of Abys-cini-i
is f-;iiil by some authorities to
have shot him-elf. Idle oilier assert
that he wns kil!M in bittlr by the
British iuvadei s.
On Octobers, 1820. Ilea ry Chris
tope, king of Hjl li, iu order to pre
vent himself boing taken prisoner by
the insurgents, who had gamed the
ascendancy iu the i-ilmid, nhot himself
through the heart.
Charles VIII., king ol Fr.utre, prob
ably inherited a taint of insanity from
his father, and lb latler part of his
life was embittered by monomania,
nianifcoling itself in the upprehetision
that his children had to'ifcpircd lo
poison him. Under this apprehension
ho refused lood for reven d.ij s, and
died of starvation mar Hourgcs on
July 22, 1461.
Concerning the deal It of Iticliard II.,
king of England. iher wore at the
time various conllirtiug r -ports, and
there has continued to bo a difference
of opinion among historians. WaNing
ham. Otterbouru and Peter of Blois
say that ho also starved himself to
death. There is a ccrlaiu parallel be
tween the case of Iticliard II. aud that
of Ludwiir II. Both were weak char-
nctcrs. both were deposed iu behalf of
strongeraspiran l to power, both were
B1IUL up ill a caHIIU lur P"n.'lirviuiij; buu
both were reported to have committed
suicide. In tho case of the Euglish
kimr. however, the weight of the evi
dence perhaps favors the theory that
some interested persons assisted iu his
taking oil.
Amouir the ancients it appears that
suicide was rather a popular form of
death. Many of the philosophers ad
vocated it as au honorable and conven
ient method of ending existence, and
cave a certain pertinence to their
teaching by putting it;in pratice them
selves.
Among the long list of the rulers oj
autiuuitv who died by their own hand
are Nero, Cleopatra, Dido, Boadicca,
iiucen of the Iceni in Uritam, Otho of
Home. Ptolcmv of Cyprus, Mithri-
datcs of Poutus, Saul of Israel, Barne
ses the Great and Sardanpaius of As
syria, who binned himself iu his pal
ace with his wives.
THE KANSAS FREIGHT POOL.
A few weeks since the general
freight agents or the Atchison, Tope
ka and Santa I-V, the Southern Kansas
aud Missouri Pacific, all lines inter
ested in Central Kansas freight mat
ters, met at tho Southern and were in
fics-ion several days. When the meet
ing adjourned announcement was
made that a pool had been formsd,
and all that remained to be done was
to fix the percentages and appoint a
commissioner, it being staled that
Geo. W. Lillcy, of SL Louis, would
likely be the man. It is now devel
oped tint these statements were pre
mature, as the same gentlemen recon
vened at the Southern yesterday to
make another effort to adjust Kansas
traffic, and put rates upon cucl. a basis
as tt ill meet with the approval aud
indon-ciuent of a'l lints in interest.
No pool his been formed, and it now
seems likely that none will be,
as the general freight ngents
can not come together. They will
meet again tod-iy, mid every eflort
will be put forth to reach au uiuieable
agreement. Globe-Democrat.
ROCK ISLAND OFFICIALS.
Tbe special car of tho president of
the Uock Islaud road arrived iu this
citv via Atchison yesterday, having
the following prominent railroad men
on board : 1L It. Cable, president and
general manager, and Vice President
A. Kimball, of the Bock Island ; aud
President M. A. Low. Vice President
aud Chief Engineer H. A. Parker, and
Assistant Chief Eucinecr B. B. Bra:
Bray-eb-
ton, of the Chicago, Kansas &
raaka.
In a conversation with a Common
wealth reporter, President Low stated
that the object or the visit was simpiy
to look arouud Topcka and to look
after the interests of the road in a
general way. He stated that thirty
miles of the road is already completed
in the vicinity of Doniphan and that
work is beius pushed forward rapidly.
Contracts will be lot in this citv on
next Tuesday, the 6th, and one condi-
tiop in the contracts will be tnat toe

TRAVEL IN CUBA'
Cuba may not be Terr large, but her
people do some traveling. Uanagthe
past year the street car company ot
Havana transported 5,022,322 passen
gers, whose fares amounted to $729,
363.15 in bank bills, and the Bsmber
of persons, members of the company,
of the police, and for other persons

WICHITA'S NEWEST LINE.
Elsewhere will be found an election
proclamation for Clifford township,
basea on a prupuuuuB ui iuwn m
that township to aid the Kansas, Col
orado & Texas railway.
This is one of the many lines pro
jected into Kansas this year. Here-
toiore tue aicuwui iin.- v uu
railroad has carried freight and pas
sengers iuto Kansas City and there
delivering and dividing up to the
seven different railways centeriug
there. The larger and stronger of
these lines have determined to come
to Kansas to not rest content with
the one-seventh of her trade and, as
is tho custom with railroad compan
ies, are securing, under an alias name,
franchises from counties, townships
mid cities atom; the line, and to sub
sequently come in and take possession
of the road in their own name.
It is shrewdly guessed that the
Kansas, Colorado & Texas is another
name for the UUicairo ec Alton, i no
caDital stock is $30,000,000. and it is
proposed to have tho road in opera
tion to Wichita within fifteen raouthn.
The initial poiut is, of course, Kansas
City, the terminus, San Antonio,
Texas. The Hue crosses the Southern
Kansas at Baldwin City, the Santa Fo
at Burllngame, thence, through Dun
lap to Florence and by way of Braih
ard to Wichita, and thence southwest
in Sun Antonio. Sedsrwick county
has already voted $140,000 in aid of
the line, Grant, Summit and Uole
townships in Mariou county have
voted $20,000 each, and Clifford and
Milton townships will undoubtedly
carrv their nronositions. It U the
part ot wisdom to do so. rj uorauo

WE CAN ANSWER FOR ONE.
The Astouibher and Paralyzer (what
a name!), of Carboudale, is worrying
over this problem :
"Wc wonder if Sol Miller, D. It. An
thony, F.P.Baker, Marsh Murdock,
and a few other newspaper men we
could name, aro going to take their
dose this year of prohibition, by way
of a prohibitory plauk iu the republi
can party platform. They are very
much like a bull maddened by tho
siifht of a red 11 ig, when writing ou
the subject, but wheu the time comes
for the state convention will uc rcauy
to swallow it, like young birds iu the
nest when the old ouc conies with a
worm."
You need not speculate any more
about us. We have no idea that the
convention will let the prohibition
foolery alone, but wc wish it would.
But whether it docs or not, we bhall,
unless our mind undergoes a change,
support the straight Bcpublicau ticket.
Republicans might fume aud sweat nil
summer to defeat some objeotioa-iblu
Republican and elect a Democrat uu
this prohibition isuc, and when it
came to the home stretch the Demo
crats would be found in coalition with
the prohibitionists to defeat the very
same TSenublicaiu. at tlio very same
election, on roiuitv tirkcls. They
have done it before, aud they would
do it again: hive no filth in them.
We shall support the Itcpublieau
ticket, reserving the right to criticise
candidates and measure. But we
shall not eujrage to drive snipe into
the Democratic sack. Kanas Chief.

It was iu these rapids that Captain

rowed dowu the river to a point near
where Captain Webb went iuto the wa
ter, when the barrel will be dropped
overboard and allowed to float
through the rapids, -t distance of
about a mile.
The force ot the current aud the
danger of obstructions are not feared
by Graham, who says that square
blows from a eleugc-liamuier on the
side of the barrel will fail to brctk it,
as it is guarded by iron hoops fct
about au inch apart. Graham has
been at the falls every day tiucc his
arrival here aud says the rapius arc
not as dangerous as has been claimed.
Six n ecks ago he took a cask similar
in build, but only thirty-six inches
long, weighting it with fifty pouuds
of sand dropped it from the old sus
pension bridge. It passed donn the
river quickly aud went through tho
whirlpool in eight minutes. Graham
save that it never passed under water
and when taken out it did not t-how
mark. Ou this account he is confident
his project is feasible and, if stopped
by the authorities from accomplishing
his object iu public, will do it iu pn
