It. ton ley, special agent and traveling orrc'pondont for the Kansas Citv Journal, spent 1 ist night in tho citv. He went down to Caldwell to see the bullfight which is to come oil' to-day, but from the looks ef things ho m-ido up his mind that it would Inrdly attract national attention so came up to spend the night in the metropolis. Yesterday while tho little daughter of Mr. Chas.

laclmls was out playing in the barn she fell oil' a seatlbld a dii-tanco of ten feet, hnding on her head. The little girl sustained a setere scalp wound and oth rents about the face one of her arms also was 'cterely injured. Dr. McCoy was called, who dress-(f the wounds and the child is now doing nicely. No scricus results are apprehended.

A Imp tear part will be given bv a number of young Indus at the Occidental on Friday night. There will bc a dmce, refreshment and a joyous social time. The idling Indies nn to eo after their own es corts and partners for the cicning. One of the managers desires us to say that all young ladies reci it ing invitations can find tickets at the jewelry store of Miss Agnes Som-mers. Sol Smith Kuiscll, the most torcatile, and one of the most phasing and mirth pretek-ing actors upon tho stage of any country, will appear at the Opera House on October Hth, in the pretty and meritorious play of Edge-wood 1 is a fascinating piece, beides it gives the greatest of all ehantcter actors fine opportunitv to display his wondrous ability at imitation and mimicry, in which he stands without a peer.

Mr. John Schott of this citv was one of tho sufferers by tho Quantril raid of Lawrence. He had line re-tnurant thero when the murderous gang of Missourians canio oter tho border to rob, murder and burn. Schott lost about that awful morning. A mot a is on foot to hate thu state indemnify thoe who suffered from that raid.

Mr. Schott has a petition to tho legislature which he is circulating which tte hope to see numerously signed. The concert which was to take iilaee at the skatink rink on Friday nud Saturday nights of this week, in the" interest of tho A. M. 11 church, Mas postponed until after the presidential election, liecauso some of tho characters had withdrawn on account of incompetency.

All parties Mho have made arrangement to come on the abote named nights will not be disappointed. A new cast will be made, andtho play will yet come off "jut the nine." That is crv interesting corner oter by the Sauta Fe depot. It quite, a common thing to see half a dozen or iporo at a t'ine stretched out at full length on the sidewalk alone side of the his: skeleton of a biir water-: melon. They are an cxcoedinglv industrious class of ieoplo continually bending their energies to holding down tho sidewalk or propping up tho buildings in tho trinity, while they have a large portion of tho street beautifully decorated with skeleton-of melons in all stages of decomposition. Dr.

Within a couple of weeks ho will go to Philadelphit where bo Mill spend seteral months in the city hospital, after which he will with hi fiuii-ily remote to the I'acific roast.

Dr. Croskey, had built up a splendid pmctico in this city and surrounding country and had also established a reputation for being iery successiul in difficult surgery.

One of the most lit civ skirmisher we have 6ccn for some time place near the Santa Fe depot yesterdiy about 3 p. m. Two young men, apparently stranger got to quarrelling and finally opened out "on each other in genuine fighting style. There was no foolishness about it. The battle Mas ttitnesscd bv quite a number of bv-standcrs who tool as much interest in the fighting if not in tho result, as if it were a horse race, Although one of the parties had the best of it, the thing might be called draw as tby made break for the alley whan they heard the.

police were coming. Mr. W. E. StvenUcl, a director in the Lombard investment company, made us a call cstcrday afternoon in company with Mr.

Geo. K. Spallton. Mr. Snentzel had just returned from London, tthero he had been spending some months in the interest of his company.

He is an intelligent, apprcriativo genuemjmwh'j takes in his bearings and surroundings at a glance. He has never been in this vallev before, but ho said it was unnecessarv to tell him that this was an cx-traordinanlv fine agricultural country, and that Wichita was an exceptionally live and bright city. When a man talks lhatwav, wo as naturallv w-arm towards him as if ho was praising our own child. I POLICE COURT. From a financial standpoint yesterday was a verv important one in the police court.

There was one tiolation of the Sunday or dinance, six salooni whacked up tneix tax, and three soiled doves came up with the filthy lucre in arious sums. "When the column was footed up there was found to be S337 on the credit side of the city" account. This can't be said to be a bad clay's work.

Tlin institution of learning of tihich men tion has been made several times in these columns, and fortthich grounds were pur chased and platted cast ot tno city iasi snrinc seems to have taken reliable shape. It will be a retnilarlv incorporated institu tion of learning and will be known as the Southwest Kansas College.

A meeting of the gentlemen who are takingthe lead in the enterprise, was held yesterday afternoon and seterul mutters determined; the first step was tlio purchase ot the lir. s-rOKey resi- idence on the corner of Central and Topeka avenues, pavinir therefor four thousand dol lars. Tim building will be used temporarily until steps can be taken for the raising ofmonevwith which to build the perma nent structure. We are not intormed jusi how soon the initiatory or introductory school uill be open but we presume at an eiirlv date. It is tho intention to open the school with a musical, an art and a business departments.

The state charter will bo applied for in a few days. ONE LIFE, ONE GRAVE HEAVEN. AND ONE The two aged companions, who have fought out life's battle to the end, and whose de-allis were recoruea in me same iie-in, ye-p-tcrdav morning, will be buried together this uioriiiug, at ten o'clock, from their lato residence. The funeral services will be con ducted bv Hev. Harper.

Theirs is a sad and pathetic picture, still a bright and loteablo one. Thos. McCampbell and Eunice Wil-lard were born near together, in Miami coun-tv, Ohio, but a single farm separating their birthplaces. Thev grew up together and when they united their lites they purchased the farm that diiidcd the homes of their parents. Like a peaceful riter hate their lives commingled and flown on together and into the great ocean which would oo mint and unfathomable but for tho light of fuith and hopo that tho moment our lites are swallowed up rovals the shores and glories of the unfading lSculah land boy ond.

Hand in hand as innocent children, hand in hand as man and woman, hand in hand as aged and faithlul companions, they trod togetht ln.trusimg ana loting icuonsmp me roseate as tho thorny paths of a tort" long journey and bund in' hand they lay down together in peace at rcct.at the Their lives hat been a lot mg unity, their grates a single, simple sepulchre, and their heut en will be an undi-tided joy, and eternal homo where companionship shall bo unalloted and netercnuing. Only last Sabbath a week they might and in-iv hate sang l'hoebe Curv's "nearer home." "One sweetly solemn thought Comes to mo o'er and o'er, Wc-'r near home to day Than e'er we'to been before. He at en, our Father's home, Where many mansions be, Vi-arer, the great whito throne. Nearer, the jasper sea." Nearer the bound of life Where mo lay our burdens down. Nearer leat ing thu cross.

Neari g-iining tho crown. But It ing darkly bctwetii. Winding down through the night. Ik the dav and unknown stream That leads at last to tho light. Father, perfect my trust, Strengthen the might of mv faith.

Let mo seo as I would when stand On the rock of the shore of death. Feel as I would when mv feet An slipping oter the brink. For it may be I am nearer my home-, Nearer now than I think. L-iy away these frail and worn out bodies of these blessed ones, l-iy them awav tenderly, children, remembering that while their bodies rest their spirits hate been set free and are happy.

Comniisssoncr A. W.

Oliver and wife lejito the city this morning for Decatur, Illinois, and other eastern jiomts to be absent about a month. The amout of bui- ih'js. being looked after bt' Mr. Oliver is al most tiH much for one pair of shoulders, still he seems, to bear un without complaint. There is no more far sighted or enterprising business man in this city than A- W.

Olitef. It is the spirit evinced bv such men as he that makes tho onward march of this city irresittible. Mr. Louis Hamrucrslaugb, one of tbe l.a'S...t Mnir in knnuG fit, ia here looking for a location to opon a fa'rge mr in his line, and fBr ho has found no suitable room and despairs of procuring one. Some of our citizens should take this matter in hand and see that Mr, IL be pro-' videdwitha room kuited to his taste and stock, even though it be built cipreslr for that purpose.

Mr. H. can be found at the Occidental for a duv or two. Strike while the iron is hot, and allow no one of this kind to go elsewhere. 1 A affair took place on 3Con-1 day ct ening last, at tbe residence of Rodolph I Hatfield, on the corner of Emporia atenue and Second street.

Mrs. Hatfield planed a surprio party upon Mr. IL who had that day reached another mile stone on the high- way of life, and with the assistance of about twenty couples who were into the secret. I Tho evening was spent in a most pleasant and enjoyable manner. A bloody and disgraceful fight took place vesterdar afternoon near the Douglas aven- uo depot.

Two sturdy young fellows who were tne worse lor peace-aesiroyer, iook a dislike to each other and feeling "that thev were mighty men with their fists and crav ing an opportunuv to demonstrate inai lacx, decided to make the exhibition on each oth er. They punished each other pretty se-t crel for several minutes. They crowu seeing that they were too drunk to hurt each other badly and that they were bound to fight, did not interfere for this length of time, as they had parted them onco before. They began to get sober and punish each other badly at this stage of the battle, "lionet cr, the blood begau to flow, and fearing the police, they were parted and while one walked boldly up the avenue, the other hid awav among the mills. The police were not apprised of the unpleasantness until a few minutes after tho curtain went down on the last act, when one came iust in time to bo too late.

It is impossible for three or four men to cover tho largo amount of territory that this city embraces andbc here, there and ct cry where, just in the nick of time. It is a strango and remarkable thing that men can so forget their manhood and can to degrade themselves ts to indulge in such a low and brutal exhibition as this spectaclo that would makoa man in his right mind ashamed to acknowledge that he belonged to tho same race of Doings as these men crazed by rum. Edward Vail yesterday, received a beautiful, large, new 6ign for their store. A largo number of guests obtain accommodation at last night. were unable to the Occidental The seventh day of October, and no frost yeL Kaneas seldom sees her first frost later than the 16th of October.

A genteel passage at arms took place yesterday in front of tho postofilce, in which two gentlemen were engaged. They no doubt forgot themselves and nothing shall be said about it as no special harm was done. The wall between the recorder's office and the office formerly occupied by the county surveyor, has been torn away and double doors have been fitted therein, thus git ing tho entire basement of three rooms, to the uso of the recorder. Tho debris was being remot ed yesterday from the room and it will be occupied at once. SPECIAL NOTICES.

AUTHORIZED NUMBERS. The purpose of adopting a well tested sys tem ui nuiuueriiig me city was xo prevent irregularity and conflicting numbers. It is not a wise thing to put a number on a house which will have to bo changed. Seeing the necessity of having numbers assigned and recorded correctiv, the city council appoint ed jir. -orwi to piai etery uiock in the city and assign numbers.

Wo arc informed that parties hate taken on themseltes to assign numbers by pure guess work which will cause infinite trouble hereafter. Tho only correct and sure method of getting numbers is to re-fe-r to the plats prepared for that purpose at No. 124 north Main street, next to tne post office. If parties will have anv number put up without regard to its corrcctnesrthey will be comjielled to chango again hereafter.
