I am waiting for tho flowers, I'm llst'nlng for tho song Of the swoct birds In tho bowers; If'lnlcr, winter, don't stuy long! For the other day a maiden took from me precious ilug.

And she said sho would cxchango It for auother In the Spring.

Wo ere walling lor the gladness Which comos to life with Spring, When the earth forgets Its sadness In the Joys that sun will bring. Then a maiden eyes will sparkle, and pretty face will glow, Aud two hear will gladly Journey where tbe sweetest flowers grow." Jno Fisher Is a enndidato for Justieo of the Peaco, should the present law requiring spring elections remain unchanged. Wo aro glad to sou John on tho track, for wo think lie could deal out moore justieo with onn law book than.

some people could with a big library; wo are also glad because an announcement fee is quite a desideratum these "hill liord times. John is quite a popular citizen. The first time wo saw him wo admired him very much. It was Oct. 21, 1861.

Tho 33rd. Indiana reglmept was holding in check the army of General Zollicoffer, led by the Louisiana Tigers. This was nt Wildcat rasa, Kentucky. At an hour when it looked very gloomy for the lloosiers the 88th. Ohio, witii John Fisher among thorn, came bounding through the timber and took a position on our right, and the mingled cheers of lloosiers and Buckeyes drowned tho roars of tho Tigers and they skulked away through the dark pines.

John's pantaloons didnt reach his shoe tops by four inches, and his feet appeared to bo about No. 10s, but lie and his companions won our admiration consecutively on that wild mountain. If elected ho would fill the ofileo with honor, even if ho had to sentence Ilank Ileiserman to tho cooler. HE KILLED A PRINTER. The Cincinnati Enquirer tells of nil old proof render wlio was brought lo tho bar of Justieo for killing a printer.

Ho pleaded guilly and said. "Do with mo ns vou wish. You cannot know the joy 1 feel nt having killed a printer. I mil content to die. I will tell you about it.

I Imvo Imd a great deal to do willi printers all my life, and what begun iis an impression In my mind deepened into a inoial conviction, that most of them ought to ho killed. If x'ti know tlm Infernal ingenuity by liicli I liny destroy ideas, pervert sense, distort fuels, render tlie sublime ridiculous, thef solemn grotesque ami tho hrniiliful obiioxus. nil by wlmt they call mere typographical errors, you would agree with me. Willi a sprightly deviltry peculiarly their own, they employ the wrong letters just where some substitution will do most harm change negatives to nflirumtives and vice versa, transpose whole sentences nnd even paragraphs at times to make utter nonsense of the author they mangle ignore tho writers punctuation nnd replace it with their own, which in tho language of tho Scriptures. "is only evil nnd thnt continually.

Even the proof reader can not save the author from their Boeotian butchery by those he trusts to present his thoughts worthily to the world, for tho printer will not correct his most spectacular nnd devastating blunders. In time I thought killing printers would not only be a duly but a delight, and looked forward to the enjoyment of that great pleasure with a gladsome hope that gilded the autumn of my life. 1 filled a bag with old type, each letter in it representing nn error I had marked in proof nml that had not been corrected. At length my time came, I got tho chance to use that bludgeon on a printers liead-Iiaabeiis. I had nothing especially against him.

Ho was simply a printer, nnd that settled his fate when I got a whack at him. "OWED ON ADVERTISING There was a man in our town, nml he was wondrous who, for when he I marked Ills prices down ho then did advertise. And when he saw his tnulo mere use, with nil his might and main ho marked still lower every price mid advertised ugnin. And when ho advertised again Ids rivals stamped and tore, to sun tho folks with might and main to patronize that store. And wldlo they sat In solitude, nnd saw his eustoni win, that man behind tho counter stood and raked tho shekels in.

And when hegak tho shekels in nnd saw his fortune rising, ho took a goodly lot of "tin und kept on advertising. Each day a generous sum hed sink and demonstrate full plain, tho more one pays for printers ink, tho greater is his gain. SETTLED AT LAST. Mr. llnyforke (rending the Weekly Welcome) A Second Adventist out West proves conclusively by tho Bible that the world will come to nil end on the 23d of next month, Mrs.

Ilayforko (dropping her knitting) Lands sakes Then wimts tho use me finishing these stockings Maybe it wont even be cold by that time. Iky, look in tho Farmers Almanac an see what the weather is goin to bo. Iky (after a moment.) Its goin to be moderate, mother, moderate an fair. Mrs. Hayforke Does the almanac stop on the 23d.

Iky No, it goes rignt on to the end the year. Mrs. Havforko Dont it say any thing about th world cornin to an end? Iky Not a word. Mrs. Hayforke (resuming her knit-ting) The Bible is wrong.

Toe many ot us are looking forward to happiness in the future years instead of getting all tho enjoyment possible out of tho present. It it well to remen-ber that the time never will come, in this world, when we shall have everything we want, just where and when we want it. The only way to be happy is to enjoy all we have, to the utmost, as we go along. It is right to lay up for old age in youth; right to prepare for a rainy day, but it is not right to bend all out energies to this end, and put off until tbe future tho happiness we might enjoy every day. It is far too common to see people working and saving, denying themselves all recreation and many comforts, to lay up money to buy more land, to build a large and finer house or to save for their children, thinking that when they have accomplished this they will be happy, and begin to tako comfort.

Tbe hoped-for point may never be attained; or if it is. sickness or death may have como first, and tho dear ones whom we expected to be happy with may be gone forever. ai THE EARTH WILL FLOP. Marshall Wheeler began a nightly series of lectures on "Science vs Supernaturalism in Irving Hall last evening. He claims to have discovered a third principal motion of the earth and the other planets, which he says is more important than the discoveries of Newton or Galileo.

After a study of fifty years ho has learned that every 20,903 years the earth changes its north and south poles on account of the magnetism ot the earth, 'J'he sun so strongly attracts one of the poles thnt in 20,903 years the earth becomes so heavily charged that it turns ninety degrees. The speaker said that about 6,500 vears ago the world made this turn. San. Francisco Chionicle. i RESPECTFULLY DECLINES In answer to many of my friends who have urgently requested me to be candidate for re-election ns councilman from the Third ward, I wish to say, 1 heartily appreciate nnd feel very graeful for the honor they wish to confer, but I feel that four years of hard work, aud tho consequent neglect of my private affairs, should be sufficient patriotism.

L. Johnson THE GREAT' NEW YORK STORE. Tills pioneer mercantile liouso arises to-day like a glittering pnlaoo above small protendnrs who strivo to compete with It. Tho proprietor, Mr, Cush Henderson, lias enlarged the store to twice its former dimensions, by making Inrgo nnd graceful reli wavs thro' a 12-iiicii wall, and Ihonrehes nre supported by gilded pillars, giving the vast apartment quito nil oriental appearance, for the stnplo and fancy goods and glittering tapestries heighten the effect nnd make the place really palatial.

Tho store now embraces 130 nnd 132 North Main street, tho floor area being 50x150 feet. The -cloak room is brought down to tho ground floor; tho Carpet Department is tho largest nnd best lighted one in tlm state, while nil other departments nre charmingly arranged. Each department seems fully stocked, and yet Mr. Henderson is now in New York purchasing the finest invoice of goods ever brought to Kansas. Room will bo found for the now goods, for tho throngs of purchasers keep reducing the stock constantly.

Special sales each week draw the patrons, ns will bo seen next Snturday, when a special slaughter of ginghams anil wliito goods will take place.

Tucker is a candidate for Justice of the Peace, subject to the decision of voters at tho polls. Captain Tucker is so well known thnt nil introduction through onr columns seems superfloumis, yet it is proper to remark that he has resided ill Kansas since 1860 and has contributed materially in "making' the states history. Ho served through the war ns Captain in the 10th Kansas regiment, and 1ms a record as bright ns a free-coined silver dollar. IIo is an able lawyer, with undoubted judicial ability, while bis integrity and sunny disposition make him popular with all. When the polls close on election day the election officers will find that Capt.

Tucker has been in the race with one hand and both feet. Judge Hammond tells us of a wayward follow back at his old borne who was converted at a revival. Tho convert owed a saloon-keeper $1:50, but was afraid to go into the joint to pay the debt, leasl the flowing bowl should tempt him to irrigato so he put the money on the end of a polo nnd passed it in to the vender through a window, remarking "Thame tho Lord -religion makes a man honest The Judge thinks that Wichita is ripe for a revival at the present writing.

A REMARKABLE POEM The following poem of three stanzas of four lines each hits often been alluded to as one of the most unique of literary curiosities, says the Chicago Tribune.

A. C. Husey is a candidate for Councilman in tho First Ward, and respectively asks tho support of nil voters who believe in his qualifications for the position. Mr. Husey has resided in Wichita for fourteen years, ten years of which time his home has been in the First Ward.

He is a largo tax-payer, and his candidacy is duo to many requests from that class of citizens. He is intelligent, genial and energetic, and would ably represent his fellow citizens of the "Old First. He is a gentleman who gets around, and has many friends who will advance his claims for the position. Senator Bent Murdock is doing good wotk in behalf of the game fish of Kansas. When his law receives the Governors signature those fellows who have been seining tbe dormant bass in the Walnut and Four Mile Will striko a snag.

A black bass will leap over a seine and protect himself except when chilled by winters cold, and to tako advantage of him then is as mean as killing a trout with dynamite. Parties and creeds die very hard, but they finally lose their grasp and gasp. Col. Murdock says that Congress lias gibbited and quartered the Western Wing of the Republican party, and- Rev. Dr.

Thomas Edison says there is more than $600,000,000 invested in the electrical industry in the United States. The electrical supply business alone tbe mere making of tbe tools to do business with amounts to between $65,000,000 and $75,000,000 a year. Nearly 200,000 miles of wire are used to convey a million messages a day over more than 300,000 telephones.

Let good men in Kansas, who wish homes, organize and send committees to the borders to secure the names of these violating the Presidents orders. They are not entitled to homes. Among animals there are several which have learned the security which comes from disciplined numbers and the necessity of prompt obedience to a commander. Monkeys raid plantations in well ordered companies. The little peccary pigs of South America hunt in regiments.

Among birds the crows migrate in bands in obedience to a chief. Some of I he larger ants move across country in destructive columns and leave no living thing in their track. Several months ago a party of vonng men left their Ohio home for Oklahoma. From time to time they had written back that they were well.

A new swindle is being perdetrated by a gang of men who are traveling about the country and make tho unsuspecting farmer their victim. For $5 they agree to paint the roof a building. When finished a bill for $5 is presented for work and forty gallons of paint at $1.50 a gallon, which the victim by signing a contract lias obligated himself to pay. Bradstreets, as the result of an inquiry into the causes of the failures of 1890, finds that 4,052 of 10,673 were due to a lack of capital. Another prolific source of business failures is the numerous attemps mado to trade where business is already overdone.

Failures due to these causes have nothing whatever to do with the general business.or prosperity of the country. A great deal Is being said about the "corner bums, but those who sneer at them should remember that those men would be nt work if they could get it to do. A BOSTON RECEPTION.
