y.wwfc' yr IV i (fofllf. WICHITA, THUItSDAY, MAY 1C, 1878. CTTY AND COUNTY NEWS. A Board of Trade. Too start of nearly svery new tmuitious town laid out in tbotlio west is always Jol-lowsd "or the incorporation oi boarili ol trade, gas and water companies, etc Wichita has not only had all her infantile diseases and gotten well over them, but has success-fully spanned that more precarious and uncertain period between childhood apd manhood, between the city in imagination and the city in fact.

Wo aro through with our rash and measles and ail incipient ambitions, sud now we have to do with real inot-bal)Ies instead or raj dolls. Gur old board of traue served its purpose In tho way ol an advertisement, but now Wichita has work for a bona fide conization, and wo are pleased to learn that several merchants held a meet-ins list Fridsy evening, which, though not called tor ibd purpose of organizing a rezular board ot trade, will in all probability result in such an organization. The trade iatorssts of Wichita are second to that ol no town in the State, and it is essential to every business interest ef tho city thai our markets are properly protected from tho selfish and un-lalr I opirations ol unprincipled men. It is unnecessary for us to tell tho business men andi property holders cl this city how our markets and the consequent trade of the city can be hurt by those who bave no abiding interest in the future of the city. Hints strong and pUIn enough Iiavo Appeared in these columns for the pact two seasons, some of them from farmers themselves.

A board of trade properly organized can do more to protect tfce markets of the city and to induco trade than can the municipal organization itself. In tho matters of good roads and storage and Irclght ratffs, a board can do much, and in the etientittls of boneit weights and fair commissions enforce their rulings. We trust the business men of the cily may follow up the good work commenced and thoroughly complete their organization under the law. We have tho best inaikct In Southwestern Kansas, havy tocks oi goods and implements of every conceivable description to supply buyers with, and the beet facilities for handling and shipping grain and livo stock, and it will be enr own fault if we allow this season's immense harvest from Cowley, Sumner and other counties to find any other shipping point. Tho Kev.

A. U. "Walter, I'. preached In this city last Sabbslh morning and evening, conducting the iovo feast in tho morning and administering the sacrament In the evening Ono of the finest fields ot wheat in this section is that of Mayor Grelflonsteln's, ono mllo northeast of the city. Many ride out to see it.

Esquire Mitchell has moved down and across street to nearly opposite the poitoliice. II. G.Kuggles has moved his office to the Caldwell block, 3ialn street, with J.O.S S.L. Davidson. The polar wave that swept over tho county last week did no damage to this section.

Tha slight frost did not touch the tenderest plant, so we came off better than some of our eastern and northern nclghben. Mr. Henry Shuman, the successful gardener and small fruit grower, who so regularly supplies the city folk with ail the early vegetables, and who ban Jonc of the most valuable homesteads in the county, will accept our thanks for a fine jessamine vine. Eniitb Keating have something to say to the larmers, whose especial attention is directed to in another column. Mr.

YanZandt, the manager of this mammoth establishment, means just what bo says. See bis ad. See notice of County Clerk of Kingman county in another column. Abram Smith announces to the public through the columns of tho Eagle that he has opened a shop on Main street and is prepared to do carpenter and joiner work of all kinds on short notlee. Mr.

Smith It a Outclass workman, las an extended reputation as such. Another Suicide. An old gentleman, titty-sir years old. by the name of Peter Smith, living on Judge B. II.

Fisher's farm, two and a half miles east of the city, took his own life last Friday by shooting himself with a musket loaded with N.G shot. The unfortunate man had bacn sick for many weeks, and had become enfeebled in mind and body. lie was fifty-six years old and the father of five children, two sons and three daughtors, all living, and all about grown. As eoon as news of the deed reached town Coroner Hunger with Constable D. X.

Williams proceeded to the place designated, when Levi Antrim, Joseph ilooksr. D. C. itiigs. I.

Stone, B. n. Ficher and William Hart were empanelled as a jury, who found that tho de-censed had placed the muzzlo of the musket in his mouth, xnd that by running the broom handle through the guard in front ot the trigger had discharged the gun as bs sat reclining in his chair. Tho whole charge entered his head, deatb ensuing apparently instantly, as he still clutched the gun whtn found a few minutes afterward. It seems that the family had feared or mistrusted that he desired to do violence to himself from tho fact of his law spirits consequent upon his physical condition.

The family wore all out that morning except ono daughter, (the wife being down at the field or garden) when the old gentleman requested his daughter to bring a pail of water. She answered that she had just brought in fresh water. Iro then persuaded her to take a lunch down to her mother. As roan as she got away from the house he carried out his design, as above stated. The gun had keen loadod (at his request, wo believe,) to kill a skunk.

Mr. George Koss has been acquainted with the deceased for a long time, and was making arrangements to send tho old gentleman back to Ms former homo in Illinois in the hope that a change might effect a cure, bnd bo expectsd to have started him this week. A beautiful bouquet of flowers placed on the business manager's desk by Mrs. Harry Shuman is one ol the pleasant things wo have to record this week, for which she ha our thanks. Commissioner Chase brought us lown on Monday, a saniplo of his May wheat which was exceedingly well filled and very heavy grained.

It was the best specimen lot that ire bavo yet teen and will be ready for the harvester ia a very few days. Chas. Harsh has added to his coal trade that of lime, cement, platter, hair, etc. He says in the matter of this trade "he proposes to open tho eyes of the public and of other dealers, alio. And that he will sell the Han nibal lime cheaper, by far, than ever offered In this market before.

ain't a bit ramcy nor don't scare worth a cent. Blind Tola's concert Monday nijht was an Immense success as to both numbers and performance. Three hundred and thirty-two reserved scats were sold at seventy-five cents each, and the remaining portion or tho hall was a jam over sis hundred pcoplo being prtsrut. Such a houso was entitlod not only to the best cflorts of the performer but the courtesy and consideration of the management. The last was noticeably wanting.

Not only (bat, but the etUnainment was marred and the finer feelings of the ladies and gentlemen i resent outracd by the incoherent jnoutniugs and unsteady gait of Tom's trainer on tue stage, who was so drunk as to render his attempted explanations mere Incoherent muttcrings. This Sankum Sooley stage soup not orly defrauded the audience by fall-ing to make the proper and timely explanations, but he kept six hundred people waiting uxlll seven minutes past nfno o'clock before he came reeling in. The last half hour was rendered almost unendurable by the hideous howlingi, hooting and screcchings of "the boys," but we couldn't blame them much undtr tho circumstances. As to Blind Tom, he is a wonderlul prodigy whose arc simply marvelous. AVltli one single laculty of ths mind so highly perfected and sp'endldly attuned, to what heights may not tho perfected and soul ot eternity attain.

Boss Matthews is V-a boss dealer ufina-chins ells. He la prepared to furnish oils in large or small quantities.

See his col-ttnn ad in another place. Strawberries and cherries are getting quite plentiful in our market, with prices less appalling.

A "deadly" disease is killing ofl num'iers of our dogs. They don't "catch" it from each other, but from the policemen. Tho only antidote sa far discovered consists of a snitll piece ol brass, which costs a dollarfora male dog and three limes as much for the other kind. Ten thousand dollars Is what tho new 11. E.

Do not fall to seo tho productions ot the great masters of art. Kemcmbcr, A change in the railroad time tablo went into eOect last Sunday.

Tho room is opposite Eajlo block once Shlichtcr Itussell'a room, but the transformation going on is so great that one would hardly recognize It.

Joe, as he Is commonly called, struck town tho next morning after the wild Indians left, and he has been hero ever since selling pills, powders, qutcluc and paregoric to the sick and debilitated. There is no telling how many poor sufferers bs has relieved during this time. Mrs. E. G.

Wright will pleaso accept our bow for a chotco lot ot full rips Ida and Wilson strawberries. Last Friday morning Grinell Thompson, a yonng man in the employ of the railroad as section hand while at breakfast, we beliove, dropped dead, or, at least, fell and died in a few minutes. Ho was a healthy, stout and robust-looking young man, tho son of a widow woman, whom he supported. Ho was carri ei to Sedgwick City In a special, whfra he was burled.

The communication lrom Harper county, touching its municipal and financial aflairs, will appear next week.

Hobson, formerly of this place, are interestcd.was lormally tested in the prcsonco ot a large number ot business men and practical mechanics. In the long account of the trial Is a cortiGcatc signed by the committee which declares thelrroad to be a succssj and entirely practicable, and that the capability of the road is greater in proportion to dead weight of rolling stock than tho two-track road. The road built and fully equipped with rolling stock, stations, tanks, engines, and eerv appliance, costs less than five thousand dollirs per mile. On ihe piece oj road finished a speed si twenty-five miles per hour was attained. But ono rail is used, and the construction roqulres twenty taotwand fest ot timber less per mile than tha ordinary road.

Ed. Eaglk Some few weeks since there was a question regarding the catalpa tree. It grows readily from the seed, slip or sprout. The seed will weigh about one pound per thousand. They aro as hardy as tha cotton-wood, do not grow so tall, but much more stocky.

The iced can be procured in any quantity rroni the eastern States and D. It. li. Greenlee. This is a country of surprises.

Ons can't most always tell what wonders our climate and soil are capable of. We are reliably Informed that the wheat in somo of the fields that was prostrated by tho late hail 6torm, where the stalk was not entirely cut off, is making a square joint or elbow, and that the heads bid fair to fill as as though nnver prostrated. We hope there may be no mlstako about the matter. Blind Tom makes nice music, but he lalls far short of producing as fine music as tho quartet club composed of Mrs. Dave Prof.
