3gfec WLuUtt gailij $: Jprastfagr gjtoriug, gamtartj 20, 1898. 5 i Kvk I rf WILL REFUND County Will Float Its Railroad Indebtedness, AT FIVE PER- CENT Save One Thousand and Fifty Doiicrs a Year. county has out alKut MO.GO0 in railroad bonds. Of these $140,000 are Rock Inland bonds, voted by the county, and the balance bonds voted by the various townships in the county, to different railroads. Scarcely any of these bonds bear as low a rate as 5 per com per annum, and some of the townships pay as high as 7 per cent, making an average ot per cent, as near as can be estimated.

The law says that such bonds may be paid off any time the county or township may be able, and shall make the demand upon the holders of tluj bonds for the paper. Or they may be refunded at any time it can be done at a lower rate of interest than that under contract. The county commissioners have a proposition from Spitzer Co. of Toledo, to take up all these bonds at a 5 per cent rate. This will save to the county on the $110,000 Rock Island bonds just $1,000 a year.

The interest rate on these bonds now is 55i per cent. It is estimated that the entire saving to the county by the time the bonds are paid would reach not less than $20,000. The Toledo company also extends the loan privilege to the townships in the county. The estimated saving to the townships at the 5 per cent rate would be more than $3,000 per year, making a total saving to the taxpayers of the county of $4,000 per year. It is probably a conservative estimate to say that the entire saving to the county and townships at the 5 per cent rate would be $00 000.

The commissioners are now at work on the proposition to refund the county bonds as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made. There is no doubt that the entire issue of railroad bonds now out will be takpn up and refunded on the proposition made by the Toledo firm. The fame of the Kansas wheat crop has gone out to the great good of all Kansas. It will save half as much money as it brings in. CORDUROY BILL HELD Is Bound Over In the Sum of Five Hundred Dollars.

"Corduroy Bill" was tried in Justice Glenn's court yesterday for robbing old man Bull of Clearwater of his watch on the Second Street bridge one nighi. last week. The evidence showed that there were two or three of them out together having a time, and that while they were gone Bull lost his watch. "Corduroy Bill" was seen with, the watch by a number of persons. He had It when Seth Old-field went across the bridge that night on his way home.

Oldfield saw that Bull was in a helpless condition and told "Bill" to wait till ho went and called a back. He went and telephoned central police station and when he got back to the bridge "Bill" was gone and had left Bull there alone. The watch has not been seen since a'nd "Bill" did not seem able to tell what had become of it. He was bound over to the district court in the sum of $500 and will probably bo. given a trial tomorrow some time.

ORDINANCE FOR THE PARK Council "Will Probably Pass One A'ext Monday Xlffht City Attorney is getting up an ordinance which, when finished, will probably provide that the new paik be named Ross Park. A good many citizens have suggested that the park be named after the presont mayor, but Mayor Ross says that there is no danger of the council doing euch a thing and if it does he would immediately apply the veto power. He offers the objection that the name Ross Park is npt euphonious at all and that he doesn't want that name anyway. When the ordinance is passed people cannot: Ride bicycles or drive anywhere on the grass. Sit on the bridge to fish or use it as a trysting place.

Discharge fire arms anywhere in the boundaries of the park. Play basfbnll in the park on Sundny. Ride a bicycle or drive faster than five miles an hour on the track. Fish in the park lakes or throw any port of rubbish into the water under penalty of Woman's Friend The Great Medicine lhat Gives Nerve Strength Hood's Sarsaparilla Makes tho Blood Rich and Pure, Creates an Appetite and Restores Health, Vigor and Vitality. 'I feel that I ought to write a few words in praise of Hood'a Sarsaparilla, which has done great things for me.

I was in a delicate condition and was sick at my stomach and constipated. I tried remedies highly recommended for female weaknesses, but the medicines brought on other troubles. I was so weak I could not attend to my household duties, and I then determined to try Hood's Sarsaparilla. After I had taken this medicine a short time I began to gain strength. I Crew Stronger Each Day until I was able to work all day without any inconvenience.

I have taken Hood's Pills for constipation, and I am better today than I have been for five years. Since taking Hood's Sarsaparilla and Hood's Pills I feel rested in the morning. I am less nervous and am sure I have richer and purer blood. I have always been bothered with scrofula, but now I im rid of it. Before my last child was born I took Hood's Sarsaparilla, and my girl baby was fat and strong, while my other child was not well and lived to be only two years old." Mrs.

Hutchinson. Across one end of the envelope were these words: "If W. B. H. is not there, turn this letter over to the editor of the Eagle." This was done.

The epistle, written -with pencil, bears date, "Avenue 005 North Gth street. Leavenworth, Kansas," and is signed M. Short." The letter goes on to say that the writer has been confined to his bed fourteen months and five days and that he and his wife are alone, sick and poor, and ho begs "Hutch" to see some of the boys for the sake of Auld Lang Syne and for "Bob." B. Hutchinson, the first printer and publisher of the Arkansas valley, has been dead for years, blessings for his memory and peace to his ashes, for no less selfish, kindlier soul over lived. "Bob" begs him to call on Uncle Billy Greiffenstein, Jimmy Brassfield.

Geo. E. Harris, the ice man; John Martin, and all the "old boys," sending his love to all. Many of the older residents no doubt will recall "Bob" Short. As for anything else, comment is uncalled for, but no old-timer can fail of apreclating the pathos of the incident, in all its incidents, names and bearings.

ALEXANDER WRITES GIVES HIS VIEWS OX BASEBALIi Prefers Oklahoma Towns to Those of Xorthern Kaiihan Mr. J. E. Alexander, the originator and promoter of the new Kansas and Oklahoma league of baseball players, has been busy at work completing the detils necessary for the formation of the league. Heretofore Mr.

Alexander has refrained from participating in the ball talk which has, during tho past two weeks, bpen going on in the Eagle. Yesterday he submitted the following which is to the point and means business. Mr. Alexander says that there is no question in his mind but that Oklahoma and Wichita will have good teams and the citizens of the respective towns will have an oportunity to see some good ball playing throughout the summer. Mr.

Alexander's letter is as follows: "To the Editor of the Eagle: "I read with much pleasure your El Reno correspondent's answer in the Eagle of the 13th, to 'Success article on baseball in your issue of the 18th. I have never been in any of the Oklahoma towns but from good, reliable information from one who has. I still think Guthrie, Oklahoma City. El Reno and Enid would support the national game better than To-peka, Atchinson and Leavenworth, and our expenses would be much lighter. "The party who informed me El Reno was a good ball town, was a commercial traveler, who said he went to that city last summer and called at his agent's office.

He found the door locked and a sign on the same, 'Gone to ball game; won't be back until game Is He at once went to the ball park and saw a crowd of baseball fans that would support a good team. "However, 'we are from Missouri' Now let these towns call a meeting of the fans and organize and send representatives to the league meeting at "Wichita February 5. Wo have no time to lose. AV should already hae our teams signed and know what we are to do. I do not want to dictate in tho organization of this league.

1 shall only look out for Wichita. It will be for the majority to decide. If Newton, Winfield and Hutchinson think the northern Kansas towns are better than tho Oklahoma towns, well and good with me. I already have a good string of players waiting on me, and I can't hold them much longer on an uncertainty. I also have a complete new ball park to build.

So again I ask you all to come to Wichita February 5. "1 agree with 'Success as to salary limit $900 or $700 but we must not start in with poor teams and expect the people to support them. Kansas "produces bnll players as well as corn and wheat, and they know pood ball from bad ball. "As to Guthrie and El Reno being classed as either too small of as 'dead rabbits' bnsc'oalHcally, can be attributed td two things bad management or crooked ball playing, or as 'Hindoo says, 1 think with clean, manly ball playing these "dead rabbits" can all bo made very much alive. The following is a clipping from tho Sporting Lifo of January 15: 'Canton.

Ohio. Jan. 10. Editor Sporting Life: Manager Durham and President Miller, of the Ohio state league, have returned from Coshocton, where they were in attendance at tho meeting held in the Park hotel in that city for the purpose of cimpleting the organization of the league. Clube were represented from Canton.

Masslllon. Twin Cities. Zancsville. Ravenna. Coshocton and Cambridge.

It Is probable that other clubs will make application for admission. The guaranteen fund that tho clubs would finish the season was placed at $10 for each club. The salary limit was fixed at 5500. The salary of the umpires was fixed at per month. The towns not playing Sunday ball will play holiday games at home, the receipts of tho holiday games to be divided equally.

"Of the seven towns in the Ohio leacue. three have a population not exceeding S.000. sflll they maintain good ball teams. "In conclusion I thank 'Hindoo, 'Success and the Eagle for the Interest they are arousing among the fans. Keep It up and we will not be without the great national game the coming wason.

J. Furnish has poured more hot shot into Colonel Jocelyn. He writes to the Eagle as follows: I observe from an article in the Eagle of the ISth instant, that Jocelyn says that part of my statements to the public, wherein I say that he called on me at the county attorney's office In the court house and asked me to aid him in turning all the collection and expending the money of the police department over to him individually, and that he asked me to make a motion to that effect at our next meeting, and that he stated that he had to have homeone to stand in with, was a lie. He admits that he was there at tho time and place stated. His denial of that statement is on a parallel with the testimony given by a defendant in a criminal action from the witness stand, whero the defendant admits all the facts and circumstances charged by the prosecution and brought out against him in evidence, until the point of criminality is reached, when all of a sudden he flares up and says that it Is a He.

And I infer that the effect of his denial upon the public will be very similar to that of the defendant on the judge or jury. If Jocelyn's memory is not at fault, and If it has not become so flexible and accommodating as to lend its aid and assistance to its possessor in endeavoring to get as far away as possible from what he has said and done as member of the police board, then it is a question whether or not he wiV become as much an object of pity as of condemnation. Now, Mr. Jocelyn, you say to the public that jou was handling the money at that time. Will you be kind enough to Inform tho citizens of "Wichita and Sedgwick county by what authority of law you were handling it? If you pretend that you received it as fines, ponalties or forfeitures for the violation of law, will you inform them since when and by what authority you and Spencer were constituted a court to try, punish or impose penalties upon men and women for the violation of the same; and, if not received in that way, will you be kind enough to inform them what moral or legal excuse you have to offer for handling it at all? You are surely aware of tho fact that there Is not an officer of any civil government who is expected, in the rightful performance of his duties, to handle money belonging to tho public that Is not placed under bond in sufficient amount, if the law is complied with, to amply protect the public against any loss resulting from oificial misconduct.

Will you bo kind enough to state to the public (as you are not under bond) what security or guarantee you have given that your conduct in the expenditure of this money will be any less questionable than it has been in your method of receiving it? Do you think you are keeping your faith with the governor, in accordance with the statement that you made at the time the board Vas organized, to the effect that Leedy had said that if the police department could collect and turn over to the city $2,000 per month that he would need no other campaign influence for re-election? Or is it because, as you stated, that the governor said he would hold you personally responsible for tho working of the department in Wichita? Now, Mr. Jocelyn. if you and Spencer had been content to have acted within tho confines of your legal authority, and been true to the party that appointed you, the city would not have had to pay for the little banquet you gave (on the night the returns for the city election were canvassed) in honor of tho election of Mayor Ross, but if you had not done that, and had not given instructions through Wood and Sutton to the joints and men ontho foice to support Ross and the Republican ticket. Mayor Ross would not have gone to Topeka in April to impress upon the governor the sublime workings of your improved methods. And if your interest in the city had been commensurate with your own interest and political ambition you would not have charged the city per day for three days, $25; $9.20 for car fare, and $6 for hotel expenses.

A total of $18.20 for your time and expenses to Toneka to try and induce the legislature to pats a law raising your salary to $300 per ear, and making you eligible, as chairman of the board of polico commissioners, to the office of mayor of the city. Now. Jocelyn. appreciating the great weight of responsibility imposed upon you by his excellency, to say nothing about what you have assumed, we can readily understand, with your laudable political ambition, why your memory was so defective as to have caused you to neglect to discharge Dr. Jordan from attendance on Price (the man who was shot by Red Wilkins), after Price had been turned over to the slate and confined In the county jail and by said neclect caused a bill for $123 to be brought against the police department of the city.

WAS A STILLETT0 FIEND Story of His Strange Crime on South Fourth, A telegram was received yesterday from Topeka stating that Governor Leedy had pardoned Francisco Lopes from the state penitentiary, sentenced there for life for the murder of a colored woman on South Fourth avenue, Wichita, in the winter of 1S90. Lopez was at tho time a hot tamaia vender in this city and had been here some two years before the tragedy which resulted in his being sentenced to hang.

The colored woman was living with her husband at 219 South Fourth and always bore a good reputation. One night late in January the was aroused by a noise of some one stealthily walking across the room. She was alone and attempted to arise and find out the cause of the disturbance. She had hardly made the first move when a strong bony hand with a grip like steel seized her throat and for a time prevented a cry for help or alarming the neighborhood. During the struggle the woman's husband apepared on tho scene.

The midnight marauder at onco lert the almost lifeless woman and with the ferocity of a baffled animal sprang upon the man. When the battle began to look like the chances were against Lopez, he drew a long knife from his leather belt and slashed into (he fra with a deadly effect. The husband of the woman was terribly cut and hacked, and was left for dead on the iloor, Hteralb wallowing in his own blood. Supposing him done for. the mad man again gave his attention to the woman who in the mean time had jotten up and was trying to make her c-bcapo out c'.

the window by which the Greaser had made his entrance. Whatever his intentions had been when ho entered the house can only be surmised, but murder seemed to be his purpose. Without a word or threat or warning, he seized the woman's arm as she was escaping through the raised window, and plunged his already dripping knife Into her abdomen and fled. The cries of the woman and the noise of the scufllo had already aroused the entire neighborhood and Tom McNnmara. then chief of police, and several patrolmen were soon on the spot.

The man was apprehended before morning, anuthc turned out to be tho tamaia pedler Lopez, who up to this time had lived quietly alone, never molesting any oue and considered by the police a good citizen. The woman's husband, after a fight for life, finally pulled through though fearfully scarred up and disabled for lifo. The woman died after two days of delirious agony, and Lopez was held, without bail, on the charge of murder. Able counsel defended him, and he got all the justice and fairness to which he was entitled. The jury very promptly returned a verdict of guilty as charged.

Before he was sentenced and whilo awaiting the courts action. Lopez appealed to tho Mexliau minister at tho legation at Washington. Secretary Blain, then secretary of state, had some diplomatic correspondence in regard to the matter, but no more definite results ever came of it than the decision of the Mexican republic that as a criminal whilo in America, Lopez was amenable to United States laws, and our courts should take their usual course. Judge Reed then sentenced him to the state prison, and he was takon there without delay. What grounds either the board of pardons or the governor can possibly have for this strange act of clcmoncy Is not stated in tho dispatches.

The man waa fairly tried and the caso was clear, and tho deed was heinous and bloodthirsty. It is hinted if he eovr comes back hero a hot reception will be tendered him by tho colored race who still remomber the horrors of that night in January eight years ago. COMING LOCAL EVENTS.
