Professor Barber was a visitor in the
moruinu hours.
Miss Martin was present yesterday and
nddreste 1 the special primary and the elo

culture.
Those who are ambitious to take tha en
tire program can now be almost gratified,
since, m nddiliou to the live regular stud

mury, MissShults lto2; elocution Piof.
Scott 2 to 3; physical culture, Miss Martin
2 to 3; imhvMurtl work in arithmetic, Prof.
Barber 2 to 3. One can put in eight and
one-half hours continuous work if to dis
posed. An extraordinary feature was tho repre
sentation of the story of Hiawatha in an
impromptu blackboard sketch by Miss
SShuits in the model prim try. As tho
etch grew under skillful strokes it is
difficult to iy whether the little people or
lhe teachers wete the more interested and
pletised. It was a fine combination of les
t.on in free band drawing, language, writ
ing, spelling, pronunciation, geography,
Jolt-lore and standard literature. It is
needless to urge the taking of tho advice
of Captain Cuttle.

The ante-mortem obituary on Mrs.
Ledru Guthrie, who was reported dying in
Chicago, dnru't fit. Tho information
which it contr.tued was sent by an Okla
homa gentleman of veracity who, doubt-les-,
wms imposed upon. To the editor of
tne UAGLt .ur-. untune writes concerning
the matter, having seen it in the EAGLE in
Virginia. The EAGLE has a wide cucula
t ion and a woaderJul influence in Virginia
for a Republican paper .md it is but right
and jusc unit .Mw. Uutnrie's statement
should be published. She says:
"DEAU Sir A short time ago an article
appeared in your influential paper with
the following startling hyalines A
Former Wichit-i Girl Dying iu Chicago,'
eta, iu which the writer graciously gives
me a complimentary biography and con
cludes tuu touching and sympathetic
article by saying 'the husband wno dis
carded her is now at her bedside waiting
for the spirit to take its flight.' Permit
me to say for the b.-neSr ot my numerous
friends who aro leaders of your paper.that
the whole of the ai tide is purely tensa
tioual, and in the main untrue. It ema
nated from the fertile imagination of a
correspondent whose only object
was to fill space. and furnish
copy without regard to whom it might af
fect. I Mticerely hope that when it does
come my time to die some four-dollar-a-week
local writer will be set to the task of
arranging the notice who is not hurried
for copy by a publisher anxious to fill
space, lor 1 think by this rush and anxiety
we otten miss materi il intended and in
spired iu the first instance to write the
romantic biographies o: sucli characters
as 'Butterfly Kid" nnd "Ilttle Snake
Jack" and others whose lives Is the
thrilling story that raises up such courage
ous and self sHcrdicing personages as Bill
aad Bab Daltop. I have not been in
Chicago for more than two months; I am
iu the most perfect health, I dou't
think it would be a sacrifice of gootl
taste to menttou the causes stated
in the "application fordivorce'' baton the
contrary consider the insinuation a de
cided lack of delicacy. It would alTord me
gieat pleasure to say that I was "a former
ichiitt girl" but a high regatd lor truth
precludes me, unless short visits duriug
the past eight yean, which in the aggre
gate would not exceed three monlns of
time, be sufficient to justify the assertion.
I recognize auu couceed to the public the
light to notice the lives and ac.ions of
those who have been to prominently con
nected with public life as myself and Mr,
Guthrie, yet this right does not extend to
any p rson the preiog, to, by inueudo aud
insinuation, distort facts by sensational
romance and weavo from the private life
of one, fancy pictures.
I am most sincerely,
Gfxevieve M. Guthrie.

13nd of a Li n;
and Hxchlng Trial In Kiowa
County.
John Humphrey returned from Greens
burg last night where he had the suit of
Kiowa county against the sureties on the
bond of the bank of Greensburg dismissed.
While he was there, yesterday morning,
tho jury iu tho case of tho state against
Ur Meyer brought In a verdict of guilty
in the ilistrict court. This has been one of
tho biggest cases evdr tried iu
Kiowa county. Dr. Meyer was vice-president
f the batik of Greensburg at the
time of Us failure soma eighteen months
ago. lie was charged with re
ceiving money while the bank
was in a failing condition. Attor
ney General Little prosecuted and
Judge Peters of Newton, dr feuded. It is
siid that there was a good dial of politics
iu the case and that the Populists of the
couuty took more thau usual interest in
convicting Dr. Meyer. The trial lasted
twelve days and was so closely watched
that people came in from the country in
the niortiiug and listened to the proceed
ings till adjournment. The case will be
appealed totnesupieme court.
"WICHITA AT TUU FKOSr.
Fighting Sons of the IVerlesi I'rlnces Stand
ing up lr Uncle .S m.
If there is anything left of the backbone
of the strike it will not hist long. "For
twelve da)s it has been in progress with
out any distinguished Wicliitan taking u
hand in it. Tho sons of the Peerless Prin
cess are conserv itivo and have a good do il
of tho nature ot Davy Crockett. When
they are once sure that they are right
stone walls nor iron bars can't stop thoni.
They Imve at last come to the assi.stance
of Uncle Sam in his desperate hand to
hand encounter w ith the serpeut of An
archy at. Chicago and the good people of
the uatiou miiv now feel assured that the
white dove of peace wUl -soon spread her
wings over Chicago. News came from tne
scene of riot und bloodshed yesterday
that a militarv company 1ms been organized
among the Wichiti residents of Chicago,
and th-it they have tendered themselves to
the government to put down the insurrec
tion. Capi in Perry Crossou is t he leader
and bis company consists of 1G0 s'rong,
matiy of whom saw servic-s in the late war.
Captain Cro-son lived in Wichita duriug
tho days of its most startling development,
and was engaged in the real est ite busi
ness. He afterwards went to Chicago. He
was an active old ddier aud fought with
distinction iu an Ouio regiment. W. R
Payne, one of fho prominent leulcrs in the
resiibinissson movement, is supposed to be
the judge advocate general of his com
pany. Tho government with ichlta at its
back in iy safely continue the war
on the back alley tnugs and home
less ruffians that constitute the mob
of Cnic tgo. Before the bold, brave sons of
the Peerliss Pnticess at t:e business end
of 100 not gnu", the GiovonlsLeys, the Shi
niskevs, the O-nerhotltskeys and the other
bandit hordes from the Dauubian territory
of Europs will lly liko mice before a lutnd
of tigers. Chicago and the government are
to be congratulated in this, their hour of
peril, that men of such bravery anil loyalt
are witn them.

"Milly is up and has taken to riding
again, and is in her habit from morn
ing until evening, when she slips into
a lovely tea-gown for an hour or so, to
appear resplendent latr on in gor
geous dinner attire," so runs the letter.
"The house is full of people, all of the
hunting set, of course; so I was not in
the least surprised when I was told
that the baby's christening was to
come off at the next meet and hunt
breakfast, which was to take place nt
II Hall. -I shall be sure of my
godfathers and godmothers if I com
bine the two, said Milly, 'and I think
it will be a trood end-off for babv.'
I Ghc added, with all seriousness.
'And so, just before they started, the
I breeches. It was really a very pretty
j sight, however, with the two god-
( fathers in their pink coats, Miss S.. as
j godmother, in: the nattiest of habits,
with Milly standing by similarly at
tired, and the little pink shred of hu
manity in long lace robes. As soon as
the ceremony was over, the entire party
took horse and scampered away, leav
ing the small M. F. H. of the future to

A RECEPTIVE MIND.
The "VTonderful Momoryof a. Noted Franc
Author.
Theophiie Gautier, the French
author, was gifted with an extraordi
nary memory. Whatever he had
heard or seen remained engraved upon
his mind.
On the day on which the two first
volumes of Hugo's "Legende des Si
eeles' were published, tho author
dined in Gauticr's company at the
house of another friend. There were
beveral literary men presont, all allied
more or less closely to the tribo of ro
inunticists, admirers of Victor Hugo,
nnd counting upon finding a feast of
good things in his new work.
In the course of the talk Gautier re
marked: "Let us prove whut we ad
vance. I will recite Les Lions' to you."
' And in a clear voice, his eyes gazing
steadfastly as though he wero reading
from afar a book visible to himself
I alone, ho recited the whole piece, not
repeating himself once, never hebitat-
i f nml nof. :., Wn?r
a bingle syl
ft o
lable.
Yet he had read it that morning for
the first time.
Many times his friends, doubtful
upon some point of history, lang-uago,
geography, anatomy or art, referred
the matter to him, and received im
mediate satisfaction. They used to say
then: "We havo only to turn over tho
leaves of Theo.'
THE INDIGO BIRD.
A Little Songster Who Is UIj;hly Prized
in Europe.
The indigo bird is about the size of a
Gcrmnn canary, and of a deep blue all
over, with a metallic luster in certain
lights that ndds much to his beauty.
A graceful little fellow inhabiting a
lightly-wooded country, where he pours
forth his melody from the top of somo
high tree to hia nesting mate below.
His song, says Harper's Young- Peo
ple, though not very powerful, is ex
tremely sweet, and combined with hia
r'ch plumage makes him a desirable
t cage-bird. Large numbers are shipped
, to Europe every year, showing that ha
!:., L. ir :.. u
is appreciated there. He is not hard to
tame, and should bo fed, as a regular
thing, on canary-seed now and then a
little green food; while in his estima
tion no kinds of inserts come umiss.
If given the freedom of the room for
E llight he is very happy, and will catch
Hies in a rapid way. Very graceful
when flying, the indigo bird will dart
from one side of the room to the other,
stopping instantly, and hovering on
the wing for a moment, like tli6 humming-bird.
Ho is inquisitive, too, and
ls aPfc to int. an? dark "le thmt he
finds. Tho writer once nearly lost his
bird by hisdighting on a wiro fonder to
gazo up the dark chimney.

the occasion. Waring his hat in tho
