A son appeared at the homo of Mr. William Hears Sunday night and in con sequence that homo is more radiant with hope and pleasure than ever before. At a "gentleman's game" last evening some one run in a sand papered deck of cards. Tho trick was located and an efTort was made to dislocate the fellow's neck. There seems to be a general lack of infor mation in regard to drawing juries, from the urgent and frequent appeals to the county clerk to be "put on." In counties of 30.000 inhabitants, or over, the law re quires the governor to appoint a jury commission whose duty it is to meet after tho 15th of April and select one name from every fifty tax payers in the county. These names are certified to the county clerk, who makes a copy of them and puts them i a box kept by him for that purpose. The judge issues an order to the county clerk, to draw a jury for his court, thirtv days before the terra begins. The sheriff is also notified. The county clerk, sheriff or his deputy, together with two justices of the peace, on a day set apart meet at the office of the county clerk and proceed to draw as many names as are ordered for jurors. Xo one has anything to do with selecting the names but the jury commis sioners. But, despite this fact, there is a great rush on the part of some profession als in this line, to get on the jury. They tackle every one around the county building hoping to get on the jury. They make a specialty of not reading newspapers or claim so, and make a spec ially of knowing very little of any case, no matter how much general comment it has created. When being examined as pre paratory to going in the box they as a rule absolutely know nothing. They are the most innocent set of creatures ever placed on record. It has often been suggested that they appear so innocent that they certainly just reached earth, got their ago in some other country and just dropped down. Some times it is almost necessary to send out and bring in witnesses to prove they know something of the case to bo consider ed. The profes-ional jurors are reported to be something of an eye-sore. They are omnipresent and hence their nauseating qualities are emphasized. Hut withal the world is supposed to be moving and the draw for common pleas court for the Jan uary term yesterday morning is as follows: William Elliott, Viola; James Sackett, Illinois; Robert Caruthers, Valley Center; D.

The other members of the committee seem scarcely anxious to assume to know anything about the matter, and in no way has any symptoms appeared of the problem pre senting a soft side. With- all the strain ing, it is announced that in due time the committee will be heard f rom. It is claimed by some that it would scarcely be safe to turn loose a sweeper on Douglas, as it might wear out the jasperite. It is argued that it would make the holes deeper and rake off some of the top on gen eral principles. It Ls also claimed that a sweeper would carry away some of the dust and that would be missed by the bus iness men and other people also. DIED. Died at Xo.

The South Lawrence church fair in the Sedgwick block was well attended last evening, despite the cold, chilly state of the weather. It has been decided by those managing the fair to continue it today and this evening, and thoe who wish will have one more chance to attend. The ladies desire it understood that they will give dinner today but no supper this evening. It has been decided to change the pres ent to the most popular councilman from the cup, as first intended, to a fine, gold headed cane. Tho young lady securing the most votes- for her respective candi date will be presented with the cup. Both cane and cup will bear appropriate in scriptions commmorating the occasion. All articles will be disposed of this even ing, and all those holding tickets are re quested to be present if possible. A sofa pillow was drawn last evening by Xo. 39, but the holder was not present and is un known. XefFs band will discourse music this evening, and all who wish to spend an en joyable evening are cordially invited to be present. THE HOOS1KKS. The Indiana society met last evening in the Sons of Herman hall on Xorth Market. As there was not a rjuorum present the regular order of busings was not taken up. The question of a permanent place of meet ing was discussed in an informal way. The free use of a room on Xorth Main was tendered by D. T. Dunbar. The accep tance of the offer was favored by those present, especially if Mr. Dunbar would agree to light and warm the room on the same terms. The members of the society give pro gram as published in yesterday's EAGLii. The entire program was rendered with the exceptiou of the vocal solo by Prof. Shuli, who was absent. Dr. J. M. Miuick is be coming quite famous as the reminiscent of the society, and his talks on what "used to happen" in Indiana are enjoyed by all, and especially the young members. The Ollie Redpath company which was billed to appear at tho Crawford Grand this afternoon, will not give a matinee as advertised, but wili without fail appear to night. As the company carries a car load of special scenery and does not arrive until late it will be impossible for them to place it in time for the afternoon performance. All parties holding tickets are requested to present them at the box office ns soon as possible, and not later than 5 p. m. and have their money refunded, or by paying the difference have them changed for the evening performance. BASED OX T1IH "HA11IT OF EATING." Mr. L. J. Simison, of Philadelphia, is in the city on a prospecting trip. It is his first visit west of Chicago, and he is look ing alter the bu&iness situation in general. He wants to see Kansas lands and grasp the situation with his own eyes aud by his own observations. He has spent a week in the state and says he has reached the conclusion that as long as people eat, Kansas lands will bo valuable and the more people in this country to buy bread the more valuable will Kansas lands be come.

A half night light to the other part without any distinction on the tax rolls, immedi ately brought up the trouble, and it has never been settled. Finally the Thonip son-Houston agreed to charge as milch for the light as the Citizen's contract called for, and presented a contract very , nearly a duplicate. The Citizens company I were allowed 10 per cent on bills over duo , and the same was in the proposed contract 1 as submitted by the Thompson-Houston. I Thej hae always shown little interest in the matter apparently, simply being represented by cold writing and it is thought would never have reached a hook even had not tho property owners getting scooped on light objected. But the cold epistles have always appeared to be le volting, and now the directory of the com pany are considering the amendments proposed. It is understood that they are not in a very big hurry, and not over forty-two capitalists of St. Louis will mak a special trip here to aitend to it. Tho president of the company, Mr. Scott, is expected hereabout the middle of the month on a regular business trip, looking alter the plant. He does most of his busi ness in writing and is very much averse to any hobnobbing about per cents with any one. It is thought while here ho may send to the council by mail the action of tho directory in the persistent pull-back about all night service in certain parts of the city. -MOKE AltOUT GICAIX STOKAGE.

She will appear tonight in the j "Fireman's Ward," u strong realistic I comedy drama written especially for her. j In this piece Miss Redpath has scored a success second to none known to tho the atrical world. The play itself is similar to the "Still Alarm," and others of the same nature. Below is what some of the most severe critics known has to say of Miss Redpath. Ollie Redpath has made one of the hits of the season at the Star theater with her cleyer acting and singing. She became the pet of the house from the moment she first appeared. She sings very pretty and her specialties were so well rendered that she received several encores. During the even ing she was presented with many beiruti ful offerings. Xew York Daily Xews.

Gaston, Mag'r. Opera House. A XNOUNCEM KXTS. Hon. William M. Rice, tho editor of the Fort Scott Monitor, came over last even ing to sjiend a day with tho Peerless Prin cess. Mr. Rice says that if Knusas has a rity of metropolitan pretentious. "Wichita Is that city. In talking over the work of the coming sossion of tho legislature, of which he is a member, ho expressed him self as vry anious to aid in a revision of our tax laws and of the statutes bearing n municipal governmeat.

The proof reader got it 2,000 car loads, which made nonsense of our sums total. From a prominent grain dealer of southern Kan sas not only, nut from the admission of the Times, wo obtained the figures of twenty thousand car loads, or twelve mill ion bu-hels. Of course this is but a frac tion of the grain raiMl in south Kansas, but the aggregate taken from this amount of grain in the way of commissions. nnl by deductions in cleanings, which should never go to the Mi-Muri at all, but from Wichita directly south to its destination, amounts in the aggregate to an immense sum annually. At least the hulk of this twenty thousand louds would never go to the Missouri river and be hauled back again if Wichita had her proper storage facilities and inspection or gradingauthor i;y, in which event the railroads would not only save a long haul, for which they receive nothing, but the home dealer being relieved of peculation and extortion, would pay the producer a better price for his grain. In short, the more this grain elevator and grain storage proposition is looked into, the more im portant it becomes to not only Wichita, but to every grain producor and grain doa.er in South Kansas. For the savings on the eleven uiiiiiou bushels of grain raised in Sedgwiok county last year, the farmers could have themselves built a million bushel elevator and had one or two hundred thousand dollars surplus.
