A WICHITA FAMILY FINDS AN ABANDONED BABY. It Was Well Dressed But Had Been Neglected There Is No Cine to Its Idem-nit y. Half-starved and almost dead from the cold a little white baby was found at the front door of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Allen Smith on Shirley avenue last night.

The child is now in the care of Mrs. Klla Olenn Shields, the police matron, wno will try to restore it to health and iind a home for it as she has done for so many others. Last night about 7 o'clock, Mrs. Smith who was reading heard some person walk up to the house, und the porch. A moment later a rap was heard and the screen door was shak en.

Smith arose ana going to me door, opened it and looked out, but seeing no one she closed the door and resumed her reading. Presently she thought she heard a baby crying and mentioned the fact to her daughter, who said it was prnbu'bly some noise made by the nurse upstairs and for a time nothing further was thought of it. The nurse, however, who was caring for a son of Mr. and SVlrs. Smith through the seige of typhoid fever, also heard the noise and she fent down stairs and told Mrs.

Smith that she heard the noise and she went down at once started an investigation and on attempting to open the screen door they discovered the baby wrapped up in a heap cotton blanket lying on the front porch. The child, a little girl with a bright face and dark eyes und hair, was so cold by the time it was found that it was almost beyond crying ami the kind hearted women worked a long time to get it warmed and comfortable. The matter was reported to Mrs. Shields this morning and ordering the police horse and buggy she drove out to the Smith home to get the little stranger. It was a long, cold drive twenty-two Mocks and back, but there is nothing too hard for Mrs.

Shields to do in a case of this kind. There is a warm spot in her heart for every class of unfortunates but a poor little friendless baby seems to appeal to her sympathies more strongly than others because of its very helplessness. In her office the baiby was seen by a neat on reporter and the story of its abandonment was told. Neither Mrs. Shields nor any member of the Smith family has any idea the baby cam? from.

It was doubtless left by the person who rattled at the door of the Smith house, but whether that person was a man or a woman is not known for no one was in sight when Mis. Smith answered the knock at the door. As she did not attempt to open the outside screen door the baby which was probably asleep at the time, was not discovered. It was fully half an hour later when its cries resulted In its discovery. 'The baby was quite well dressed In clean, white clothes, with a little knit silk hood.

Mrs. 'Shields says it Is tho best dressed abandoned baby she has ever seen. There are no marks on the child's clothing and no note or other evidence that would give any clue to Its identity. A small bundle of 1 Clothes was found with the child but that is all. The theory has been advanced that possibly the child was left by some one who got off a Missouri Pacific train when it stopped at the crossing of the Wichita and Western track, which is only a few hundred yards away, but that is all conjecture.

The baby is supposed to be about three weeks old, but it may be older. It is well formed and aside from a hard cold, seems quite healthy. It has evidently been terribly neglected as its face is thin and its arms and legs are little more than skin and bone. If it lives it will be because it has unusually good care and a strong constitution to build on. Every effort will be made to discover who it was that abandoned the child, but the police have little or nothing on which to base an investigation and the chances are that it will never be known who was so heartless as to take her baby out in the cold on a night like it was last nisht and deliberately leave it on a doorstep where it might have frozen had not its feeble cries attracted the attention of the inmates of the Smith home.

DATES CHANGED Wichita Fair Will Be Held a Week H. L. Resing has returned home from Hutchinson, where he attended a meeting of the Arkansas Vall'-y Racing association, the results of which will appear later. One of the results was the changing of the dates for the local fair and rare meeting from September to 26 Inclusive as originally selected, to one week later, September 28 to October 3, inclusive. The change was made because it was believed it would be more advantageous, both to Wichita and to the horsemen who may wish to enter their flyers for the purses which will be hung up here.

There is trouble brewing between two well-known Wichita men and friends are at a loss to know how to avert open hostilities which may occur at any time. Diplomatic relations have already been suspended and it may foe necessary to resort to a court of arbitration to settle the matter. Strange as it may seem the cause of this trouble Is neither relifrious nor political. Neither Is it the result of chickens running at large nor anything that has ben said about the family of either. It is all the outcome of the zealous championship by each rr a His a sure resource man of the relative value of his dog.

About a month ago, when A. W. Sickner went to the city clerk's office to register he said he guessed he would pay his dog tax and would like to procure tag No. 1, as his was the finest dog in Wichita and deserving of the honor. 'Mr.

Leland, the city clerk, informed him that the dog tax tags for this year had not yet arrived, hence he could not give him one. Mr. Sicklier said he would leave his money and asked the city clerk to keep tag No. 1 for his dog, and Mr. Leland promised that he would do so.

Yesterday in the absence of Clerk Leland, T. T. Scudder called to register and after seeing that his name was properly recorded on the books, said he had the best dog in Wichita and he wanted to pay the tax on him und get tag No. 1. The obliging assistant clerk promised that his wish should oo granted as soon as the tags arrived and he paid his tax and departed.

When Mr. Leland and his assistant, Mr. Hullowell, got to comparing notes last night they discovered the dilem ma in which they were placed. They ere now considering the advisability of leaving- the city, killing one of the dogs or sending for a duplicate tag No. 1.

There has been no clash between Messrs. Scudder and Sickner as yet, and the city clerk hopes to avert trouble by In -ting upon some happy expedient soon.

BOWLING ALLEY A New One Is Being Fitted in the Steinbuchsl Building.

NOW THEY KICK Signs of Graft in New School Fund BilL Topeka, March Quite a bi-r kick is being raised about the law pass-td by the legislature at its recent session which knocked out the old statute forbidding the state school fund commissioners from purchasing the bonds of any city, township or county where the indebtedness exceeded It) per cent of the assessed valuation and increasing the limit to 15 per cent. The argument made for the passage of the law was that nearly everything under th l'j per cent limit had been cleaned up cither by the state or outside parties and that something had to be done to keep the school fund invested.

On the other hand, however, it Is claimed that the passage of the law opened the way for foisting a lot of worthless bonds on the state. Municipalities whleh, owing to the fact they have exceeded the limit of their bonded Indebtedness are unable to sell their securities to outside investors, will shove them off, It Is asserted, on the school fund and the state will have take the chance of them being paid. As a matter of fact, it is claimed, the passage of the law was pushed by men who had this class of bonds to sell. As originally introduced the bill passed at the recent session gave the school fund commissioners power to purchase any kind of a bond, whether issued 'by a municipality or not, and with all restrictions about purchasing Kansas bonds alone removed. Governor Hailey held up the bill, however, and insisted on it being redrafted so that the only change made in the present law was to increase the limit tf valuation from 10 to 15 per cent.

There seems to be quite a sentiment that it would have been better had the bill been vetoed outright. Women love a clear, healthy complexion. Pure blood makes It. Burdock Blood Bitters makes pure blood. Crozier Is Sentenced Manila, March 20.

M. MINSCHENK SPOT CASH FANCY GROCER. SOMETHING SF.F.MKD TO WORK WRONG WITH SWITCHES Towerman Throws Freight Cars Off the Track Clearing tho Way for the Passenger Saving Life The pasengers on Island passenger train that left Wichita last evening about 5 o'clock, it being a little late, don't know how near they came to being mixed up in a bad wreck. As the passenger train approached the Santa Fe crossing operated by a somaphore system on the corner of Lincoln and Santa Fe avenue, a Santa Fe switch engine pushing four car loads of stock urrived on the scene going the same direction. Neither of the trains was running at a fast rate of speed, but the switches refused to work, or the signals, something was wrong with the mechanism, and the towerman, to avoid a wreck derailed the four freight cars with the switch engine.

Two cur loads of the cattle were turned completely upside down, but the engine retained an upright position. Yardmaster Ululbert. who was on one of the freight cars, met with a slight accident to one of his legs, being hit by a Hying missile when the derailment occurred. No one else wus injured. The cattle belong to Henry Schwelter and were being switched preparatory to their being taken to the stock yards.

It was reported at first that about one-third of the stock was killed. After an examination was made, however, It was found that none was killed. Many though, were crippled. The cattle were ell gotten out of the cars ns quickly as possible, tis the shock of the derailment threw the cattle Into nil kinds of posi tions. Some were on their backs.

Home on their sides, w.iile others were thrown on their heads. Those who witnessed the wreck, say the noise was deafening for a time and it was quite a while before the extent of the damage could be learned. A wrecking train came down from Newton last night and Is clearing away the debris this morning. ED SNYDER SENTENCED Serve Six Months in Jail for Stealing Chickens.

This is the result of a proposition to double the equipment of both the Kansas batteries, giving to each two more guns, lour more caissons and other equipment of like nature. Captain Ueorge Downing said yesterday that there is reason to believe that the plan to provide the proposed additional equipment would be carried out soon and he wants to be ready for it when it conies by having the full complement of men enlisted. This will give sixty enlisted men, besides the officers, to Battery which has always has been a fine organization, and which will now be liner still.

Roy came near being victimized last night by a sleek scheme which a young fellow attempted to play on hint. Soon after dark Mr. Hoy who was -it home, was called to the 'phone by John Williams in the candy store aujoinlng his place of business and told by Mr. Williams that a young follow was there waiting for i which he said he had kit at Koy's store in the afternoon. The fellow said he had made a purchase at Koy's shoe store and had let the package and two dollars in money at the store, expecting to call tor it before the store closed, but had been tillable to do so.

He wanted Mr. Williams advance the money and take an order on Mr. Roy but Williams thought it easier to communicate with Hoy by 'phone. Mr. Jtoy knew nothing about such a deal but thinking Bert Coombs, his clerk, would know something about it, he ran over to see Coombs who lives near by.

From Coombs he learned that no such transaction hud taken place, so he returned home and telephoned Williams that the young fellow had lied about leaving any money in his store. When Mr. Williams told the man what Mr. Roy said he walked quickly to the door and then started on a run down the street, evidently afraid that he might get into trouble. Mr.

Roy said he was tempted once to tell Williams to pay the fellow the two dollars as he 'thought it might be some out-of-town customer, and he would probably have done so had not Mr. Coombs lived so near. "Two dollars is a small sum," said Mr. Roy, "and it would not have been much had I lost it, but I should have disliked very much to have been beaten out of it la any such manner." CASE DISMISSED Coart Finds' State Lacking Evidence to Hold Appleby.

Cunningham, in the city court this morning, and was released by Judge Harvey, who found tnat the state failed to Introduce sufficient evidence to show him to he the guilty person. Though Appleby had the handle bars to the wheel and though he had run when he saw the officers coming toward him, he denied having stolen the wheel and there was no evidence to show that he had. Pet Dunn who is wanted on the same charge is alleged to have been the lad who took thA wheel, but so far the oftlcers have failed to locate him.

'Chicago Tribune Discusses the Matter in a Washington Dispatch Long Has Enemies at Home. It is possible that Kansas may have the honor of holding second place on the presidential ticket headed by Mr. Roosevelt. Senator Chester I. Long's name is mentioned, but he is said to have enemies who will object This must be an echo of the senatorial tight and would indicate that the Curtis Indians propose to take any scalp in Bight.

The Chicago Tribune yesterday printed the following from its Washington correspondent: Kansas may furnish the Republican vice presidential candidate to run with Roosevelt in the next campaign. In fact, the political leaders of that state it is claimed have already been called on to exhibit the material they possess for the vice presidency. It is so abundant that a selection here in Washington will be a difficult task and the opinion of the Kansans on the subject is to be sought in advance, should a selection be made. A man from Kansas is wanted who can wield the greatest possible Influence in and out of his state. Many names have been mentioned already, from the governor down.

The name of Long has been frequently mentioned, but he has many enemies who are opposing him. If the suitable material cannot be found in Kansas the selection is to be made from either Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa or Nebraska. This much, it is said, has been deli-niteiy decided. Necessary to Life. Vinol Makes it.

POOR BLOOD CAUSES ERUPTIONS AND WEAKNESS. Vinsl Stakes Pure, Rich, Red Blood. BECAUSE WE KNOWN TH! WE GUARANTEE ITS ACTION. Impoverished blood is a surfi sipn of Internal disorders. We see every day too many people whose faces plainly show that there is something- radically wrong-.

We want all of our fellow-citizens to know of our splendid blood purifier and blood maker. We refer to Vinol. Vinol, as we have before stated, is a purely scientific preparation. Vinol owes its virtue to the fact that It contains in a highly concen traced tate the active curative principles, taken from the livers of live cods tho same elements that formerly wera found in cod-liver oil, and which made It famous. Vinol docs not contain the grease or fat that characterised cod-liver oil and made it in many cases worthless.

Vinol acts upon every one of the great vital organs, and by invigorating and giving them strength, enables them to properly perform their functions. Vinol's effect on the stomach is marvelous. It tones up this, the greatest of the organs of the body, and enables It to obtain from the food which is taken into it the necessary elements to create flesh and muscle tissue, bona tructure and pure, rich, red blood. We are in receipt of a letter from a Bavation Army woman which reads as follows I took Vinol after a bad attack of grippe, and so much good did it do ma that I persuaded my sister to take it. She was all tired out.

Had no appetite and her blood was very poor. It did her as much good as it did me." Betsy HxnERstiAw, 718 River Fall Eiver, Mass. Won't you please come in and see us? We are always glad to extol the merits of Vinol. We will give you back your money if you don't find Vinol will do all we claim it will. Could any one do more for you? G.
