Mayor Clement and Councilmitn Buck ridge nnd Carson spent some hours yester day looking after tho Hush tank question. Mayor Clement says the supply of fitish tanks along the east maiu sewer calls for about seventeen thousand feet of two-inch pipe. The water company hnv. e no mains alomr the line of the sewer main at the south and north ends. This is reported by the company as due to the fact that there is no demand for the e mums in tlie sections referred to and hence they are not there. The mayor is of the opinion that there being no demand for water mains in all probability there is no demand for sewer main and Hush tanks and hence no de mand for the sewer fund to be increased $5,000 to put in the 17,000 feet of two-inch main to flush the sewer tanks. The coun cil some time ago decided to put in the Jhish tank pipe, and it is thought the ac tion may be rescinded and the sewer mains in the sections referred to not bo provided with flush tanke. So far none of the flnsh tanks are giving service. As a result, from some vicinities complaints are reaching the board of health. The cit' not having charge of the fcewer system, the council don't -want to pay for water to run the ranks, and the contractors say they are not operating the systom, and between the two tho tench that attracts attention. THE TEMPERANCE MEETING. Tlie Rcr. Bernard Kelly and Xoah Allen Speak at tlie Garllcld Delegates Ap pointed to Attend the btate Meetlnz on 10th Inst. The temperance meeting at the Garfield was fairly well attended last evening. The meeting was called to order by Mr. J. N. Knapp, who placed in nomination W. E. Stanley, Esq., for chairman. Mr. Stanley wasseelected chairman and on reaching the stage referred to tlie governor of Louisiana, who placed the honor of the state above money in his message vetoing the lottery bill. He also referred to the editorial in the Eagle on the lottery bill and thought that editorial would apply to tlie temperance agitation in Kansas. The meeting had been called under peculiar circumstances in face of the supreme court decision, which had temporarily in terfered with prohibition and also had in terfered with high license. Under the de cision no more right to regulate than to attempt to prohibit the sale of intoxicants. In face of the circumstances there were people in Wichita who would keep up the fight until relief secured from congress. Tho state of things was a national slander and disgrace. The resubmission- ists and prohibitionists, all temperance people alike, and all should agree to urge congress to pass a law to allow the states to regulate the traffic as it might decide. The chair announced the presence of Mr. Noah Allen, and called upon him for a speech. He said the liquor fight com menced in 17TU in Pennsylvania, and al ways right prevailed and would prevail. The supreme court decision would re bound in favor of prohibition. The resub mission fellows had been making false statements. They said it was impossible to enforce the law. In a crowd of twenty five resubmicsionists there were always twenty-four who had not tried to enforce the law. In every twenty-live prohibition ists there were twenty-Gve men who had no regrets over the supreme court decision. The men engaged in the liquor business have no regard for law or homes or for anything but money. The time had come for activity. The lack of activity in Wichita had caused the resubmis sion sentiment in the city. If fcedgwick county had a few Bernard Kelleys there would be less resubmission sentiment. It might be possible to find boys in Wichita joints but also could find boys in high license saloon towns. Some office holders in Sedgwick elected by the temperance people were going over the state howling for resubmission and crying thac prohibition was a failure. The chairman introduced "Mr Kelly, of Topeka, or of the state of Kansas rather'" Mr. Kelly said he was always glad to stop in Wichita. He was glad to have the privilege to help rebut slanders about Wichita set going by some resubmission speakers in Wichita some of whom he thought in the employ of the brewers as sociation and he had a letter with him on that point. He referred to a book sent out by the resubmission club he said it was a compilation of falsehoods and great men quoted in a way to create a false impres sion. The statement that 32,000 men went out of Kansas last year on account of pro hibition, he wanted proof to establish the statement. The people who went to Okla homa did not get out of prohibition. Some time ago the average price of corn in twenty-seven towns in the state was 24 cents per bushel and the same day the price of corn in Nebraska was 19 cents. Prohibition, he thought, had nothing to do with the price of corn. It was right to prohibit bad literature, the sale of liquor or right to prohibit any thing that interferred with the mind and body of a man to prevent him from do ing good. He gave an illustration where a man had saved money owing to the en forcement of the prohibition law in his town. Also gave an illustration of a woman breaking up nn original pack age house by flogging the proprietor but t lie speaker did not approve force even to to break up original package institutions. Tlie opposers of prohibition offered mostly as argument stale stories about prohibitionists. The busted real estate agent, gamblers, prostitutes and some purchasable newspapers and the brewers' association were opposing prohibition. To put down prohibition once it would come up again in a more vigorous form. The idea of prohibition born of God. How a man could profess to be a christian and not be a prohibitionist was beyond his un derstanding. Some claimed to bo Metho dists in good standing and at tlie same time bawling for resubmission. Ho could not understand how a man' could do such thing. The speaker recalled sev eral instances where drunken men had killed their wives and children and from this appealed for support of tlie pro hibition law. lie would rather his son should be murdered by bullets than by intoxicants. Prohibition was right in principle and the principle was conceded all right by all when applied to cattle, hogs and money but some could not agree to the priueiple when applied to protect ing boys and character. The speaker then told Eugene Ware's story about the bust ed banker and thought the resubmission ist.s also had considerable gall. Prohibi tion being right it would prevail in every state in the Union. Prohibition was a success in Kansas and the man who would say it is not would slander his mother. The state had the right to protect its citi zens from anything that interfered with the best interests of its people. Texas has a fine of $300 for selling the Police Gazette, yet no one was heard to say that was op pressive. Coming back to resubmission the speak er said that after the next election there would not bo enough found of the move ment to tell what it is and name it. High license for years had attempted to partially control the liquor traffic but pro hibition would completely control it. Pro hibition decreased sale of liquors and if it did not the liquor men would Iks in favor ofprohibition. The Brewers' association also would be in favor of prohibition if it increased the sale of liquor. There was good authority that prohibition cut down tho sale of intoxicants. The state officers say that prohibition does decrease the sale; t he supreme court members say so: most of the members of the legislature say so; the Kausa teachers say so; the preachers say so. The little, insignificant crowd wanting an extra session of the legislature had been born too late and were not posted. They were either not sincere or they did not know the sentiment against them. Some of them are oing out to try it for themselves and the speaker nopeu they would try it it tliey wanieu to. Concruing the effects of prohibition in Kansas the speaker stated that there were fewer criminals in the state than in any other, in proportion; fewer insane and all due to prohibition. The speaker quoted himelf as having repor ed Wichita a most beautiful and hos pital city and Sedgwick the best county in the state. He came to Wichita when there was an abundance of saloons and plenty of empty houses. Kansas City at present has seven thousand empty honses and many saloons. He quoted real estate prices in Wichita ten years ago but said he would not say the increase in price was due to prohibition. On tho question of taxa tion he said taxes are lower in Topeka than in Omaha. The speaker enumerating the prohibi- bitionists included the Jarmers, lawyers, doctors, teachers. Irish and Germans J would soon join them, and many of them j already for prohibition. The railroads for prohibition, in employing men, having no one in their employ who would use intoxi cants. The Chair announced that Mr. C. F. Cof fin would read resolutions, when he ap peared with the following: Whereas, Wednesday, July 1G, 1S90. has been designated by the "Kansas State Tem perance Union as the date for holding, at the capital of our state, a mass temperance convention, for the purpose of again declar ing our loyalty to prohibition, of urging congressional action to relieve us of the "original package" horror, and of devising whatever other means maybe necessary to resist all encroachments, on Kansas soil, of the liquor, therefore. Be it resolved, By the citizens of Wich ita, in convention assembled: L, That we heartily endorse the action of the State Temperance Union in calling such a con vention, and thus affording such an oppor tunity for the expression of public senti ment on the liquor question as that even he who runs may know that Kansas is a prohibition state. a. 'I hat we again declare our faith in prophibition, as a principle, and as the best bulwark against the inexpressible evils of the liquor traffic that can be build ed around our homes, our municipalities and our state. 3. That we reiterate the fact and defy a contrary showing, that in our state, as a whole, the prohibitory law h:isbeen better enforced, and has more completely ac complished its purpose than any other Erominent criminal law on our statute ooks; and that we expose to the contempt of all intelligent persons, the hollowness and insincerity of the statement so often made by the enemies of prohibition, that as much liquor is sold and consumed in Kansas under prohibition as there would be under the license system, high or low; and our justification for regarding such a statement with ridicule and contempt is the appalling fact that since the recent de cision of the supreme court of the United States rendering to some extent inopera tive our prohibitory law, so called original package houses have been established by the score in cities and towns where for vears their baleful influence had been un known. 4. That we believe that the presence of the brewery and the open saloon in a state or municipality is incompatible with a high grade of public morals, true commer cial prosperity or the best type of citizen ship. We hereby affirm that our ears shall be forever deaf to the mercenary ar gument of public revenue when that reve nue is to be secured at the price of the moral ana material interests ot our people. 5. That we will support no man for con gress or the legislature who is not in full sympathy with the enforcement of the laws of the state and nation. G. That we urge upon congress that there be no unnecessary delay in enacting sucli laws as will enable the state to quick ly bansish from its boundaries "original packages" of every sort that in the discre tion of its legislature may be deemed inimical to the peace, morals or health of its people. 7. That we call upon all citizens of our city nnd county believing in prohibition to assist in every available way to the success of the convention to be held at Topeka on the lGth. i Chas. F.

COUITER'S F0NEEAL. His Slortal Kematas Laid to llcst "With Military Honors. "There Is but a step between me and death." Sam uel 20-3. The mortal remains of M. W. Coulter lay in state yesterday until 6 o'clock in the evening at the Garfield hall and were viewed by a great many friends and citi zens. The hall was appropriately draped in mourning and beautiful floral designs were laid upon the casket which occupied the center in front of the platform. The hall was crowded with people by 6 o'clock the time announced for the funeral. After a hymn by the Presbyterian choir, Chap lain Harmon offered up a prayer and was immediately followed by the Rev. David Winters who delivered the funeral oration. The speaker adopted the conversational style of delivery which was much more ef fective under the circumstances than the grandest flights of oratory could have been; and his simple language fraught wit trnthh and comfort to the bereaved friends, carried with it the weight of conviction and was eminently suited to the occasion. He regretted that he had, had no personal acquaintance with the deceased and there fore could not speak of his many noble qualities from his own knowledge. He had been particularly struck with the many kindly and eloquent tributes paid to the dead by his friends who were so num erous. Every one who knew him held him in high esteem and all felt that death had robbed them of one whom they could ill afford to lose. He then read from the fifteenth chapter of first Corinthians where Paul spoke of the manner of the resurrection as a foundation of his address and took for his theme the latter portion of the third verse of first Samuel, chapter twenty, "there is but a step between me and death." Death is a certain step and must be tak en by all save the last generation. "We shall not all sleep but we shall all be changed." "But as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." Death is an uncertain step, for none of us know when, how or where it shall come to us, "there is but a step between me and death." Death is a final step, it is the end" of nil things earthly when mortality puts on im mortality. Death is a separating step separating us from all our earthly hopes, ambitions and fears. It separates us from friends and loved ones to be reunited with those who have gone before. Death is a sorrowful step, a step that must be taken alone, and it is well to bo prepared. The deceased had often faced death in battle, surrounded by lovinc and brave hearts who lent their inspiration and found similar encouragement in his com pany, but the sorrowful step of death must be taken alone. The one who at such a time can not reach out and place his hand in the hand of his Heavenly Father is indeed alone. Be prepared for this certain step and although it is uncertain, final, separating, sorrowful and alone, it has no sting. Death is the last enemy and if van quished by an abiding faith in the blood of the Redeemer tlie grave has no victory. The nddress was concluded with prayer and the procession at once formed for the cemetery. The military and the different organizations of which the deceased was a member niarch ched as escorts. The solem cavalcade moved slowly to the strains of funeral mu sic and the procession silently followed the remains of their comrade and friend to the last resting place in the Maple Grove ceme tery. At the grave the different companies were stationed and Post Commander Wal lace and Chaplain Harmon conducted the Graud Army service. As a fitting termi nation to tho military burial, the light in fantry fired three salutes. As the smoke cleared away the homeward march was begun, and a few remained to weep in si lence over the now cold clay that had been so dear to them. BAK ASSOCIATION.

The paper showed con scientious research and was replete with nice legal points that were highly appreci ated by the members of the bar present. A short discussion followed on the subject of the paper and the meeting adjourned, out of respect to the temperature. THE TEUEIFIC HEAT. This is awful hot weather for any coun try and but for the unfailing breezes and cool nights it would be very distracting. With the thermometer ranging during tho middle of the day, from 05 to 100 degrees in any other country but this would probably prove destructive of life. But there has been little real distress in this city from the heat and a wonderful immunity among the little ones, from trouble and death. The doctors are advising avoidance of meat, of black clothing, of ice water and over mental and physical exertion, and recom mending light food, acid drinks, shade car bonated waters, and so on, with a hint not to worry and not to get excited, and, above all, to let all drinks containing alcohol en enfirely alone. Well, that's all right, we suppose, but who can help talking about such beastly weather aud who in complaining of its exctssiveness don't worry more or less. Hygenic precautions may bo observed and alcoholic drinks abstained from, but who can keep from fretting and growling with only one steady white glaie and not a single rain cloud in sight or sign of mois ture anywhere, underclothes excepted. Sun strokes seldom occurr at this altitude, and never in tho absence of the use of in-1 toxicating liquors or highly stimulating food, unless in case of very great physical debility. Drink plenty of pure cold water, and sweat freely and there will not be much danger from prostration by heat. With plenty of cold water nnd the ab sence of fret and worry there is no reason why a person should fear sun strokes or suffer inordinately from heat, except in isolated cases where over exertion is un avoidable, but even in these the danger will be lessened greatly. In tho mean time let us nil pray for rain and a cool wave. IJESOriUTIONS OF WARWICK EODGE NO. 44, KNIGHTS OE rVTHIAS. Whereas. In the feudden departure of our beloved brother, aI. W.

It is a fortunate fact that Essip has come to bo considered so ilTbredjayhabi:; aa to be banished iromScolite usage in tho parlors of tho modern recoption. As long J uiuu laurciv -ttrujiij yevpio jr-woa5 to indulge themselves in that, as .in other sins, with vague and dim reference tojsomo day of repentance and reform. Not even tho duello ha3 been able to keep tho custom in check in countries where that institution had vogue, and where gossip had always much to do with maintaining it. But now that itvscems to be established that a woman of high breeding will not in vite into her house for a second tiraa a person once guilty of the indulgence there, a check has been put upon the habit that may do much toward its extinction.
