erected 1886&#13;
&#13;
A Brief History of the Public Schools of Derby, Kansas.&#13;
&#13;
     The first school meeting of District No. 6. was held at the house of John Hufbaur in El Paso at 2 p.m. April 6th 1872. At this meeting the district was organized, J. Hout Minnich elected, director; John Hufbaur, clerk; A. G. Burr, treasurer. At a meeting on the 4th of May 1872, the district voted to issue $1,500 in district bonds, for building a school house to be located in El Paso; a proposition to receive bids for building the house was advertised in the Wichita Vidette.&#13;
&#13;
     On the 5th of June the bids were considered by the board, and the contract awarded to R. R. Costin at $1129.00, the house to be located on George Avenue. It was occupied by the school in the fall of that year and until 1886 when it was sold to the Evangelical Church.&#13;
&#13;
     The first school of the district was taught by E. H. McClung for a term of three months commencing on the 11th of Sept. 1872 for which the teacher received $35.00 per month. Since then 23 teachers have guided the youth of the district with varied success. The highest wages paid was sixty and the lowest twenty dollars per month.&#13;
&#13;
     Seventeen different men have served on the board of directors, among which we see the names of A. G. Burr who served six terms; A. Minnich, five terms; H. C. Tucker, four terms.&#13;
&#13;
     The present house of which the above is a sketch, stands on a slight eminence at the east side of town, surrounded by a beautiful Blue grass lawn, upon which many young trees are growing. It was erected in 1886, at a cost of Twenty-five hundred Dollars. The present principal Mr. L. Lightfoot is in charge of the school the second time having taught here in 1888.</text>

     John Coulter, a farmer near Derby, a town not far from Wichita, was killed by a mad bull a few days since. The full attacked him in a field and gored him. One horn pierced Coulter’s throat below the chin the end protruding from his mouth. He was dragged some distance in this manner before the horn became loosened.</text>

Mr. B. M. Culter the victim of a Sad Accident&#13;
A frightful accident occurred to B. M. Culter, the dairyman, at his farm, three miles west of Derby, on Saturday morning of last week. He was assisting in loosening a tied up cow in the grove near his house when the cow jumped at him thrusting one horn almost entirely through his neck. He dragged himself to the house for help. Drs. Foster and Youngs, of Derby and Drs. Oldham and Graham of Wichita examined him and discovered the larynx had the most damage. The recovery if the patient is decidedly improbable but it was reported he was resting and improving.</text>

              <text>Correspondence of the Eagle.&#13;
From El Paso&#13;
&#13;
El Paso, Sedgwick, Co., Ks., Sept. 4, 1872.&#13;
&#13;
     Editor Eagle: Seeing a letter in last week's issue from our little neighbor across the water. Waco. I thought I would tell you something about us for the benefit of your many readers who may not know where and how we are situated. I will say that El Paso is in the southeast corner of the county, situated on the Arkansas river at the junction of the beautiful Spring creek. The town is laid out on the high prairie, overlooking the river and the vast bottom in which Waco is situated. There is one remarkable feature of our town, and that is the style of buildings up and in course of erection. They are of good size and substantial build. No little 10x12 cottonwood shanties. Mr. A. L. Minich of the firm Minich &amp; Bro. lives in his two story brick residence on Baltimore Ave. Another residence of worthy mention is our gentlemanly postmaster's. Dr. H. C. Tucker has built a fine residence in the rear of his drug store and brought his family to town. Although there is not much sickness here he is kept pretty busy, as he has the reputation of being the best doctor in these parts. Our enterprising fellow-townsman, R. R. Costin, is building him a fine store and residence on the corner of Baltimore and Market and is fitting a hall up stairs to be used by the votaries of the light fantastic toe. There is also a rumor that the Masons will organize and use the hall for a lodge.  &#13;
  &#13;
     George Litzenberg, of the grocery firm Sharpnack &amp; Litzenberg, is doing a flourishing business in the real estate line. He says he has farms on Spring creek to sell from $300 to $1,500. In fact anything a man may want in the "dirt line."&#13;
&#13;
     I will say here for the benefit of your castern readers that this is one of the finest tracts of land in Kansas - well watered and timbered; and we think the day is not far distant when we will have coal mines in operation, as we find indications of coals in every well dug here. e climate is mild and salubrius, winters short and so mild that stock runs and feeds on the prairie the year round. The soil is of the richest in the state, and is a black sandy loam, with just sand enough to make it pulverize well.  No mud here the year round, and a man can work in his corn fields three hours after a heavy rain.&#13;
&#13;
     Our farmers all have their fall wheat in, and it is all up and looking fine. This is as good a wheat climate as any in the country, and the farmers are all putting in every bushel they can get hold of.&#13;
&#13;
     I have just returned from a trip through Cowley county and the four mile strip. Everything looks flourishing, and all the inhabitants are calling loudly for a railroad.&#13;
&#13;
     We have had two railroad survey,s but we don't hear the whistles as yet. That is all our town needs to make it a "city of the first class."&#13;
&#13;
     Our wide-awake saloon-keeper J. Griffey has just completed a fine livery and feed stable, size 22x36 feet, with a dance hall overhead, in which he gives a dance almost every week. Some of our Wichita neighbors could spend a pleasant evening at there "socials" - plenty to eat and drink, and good looking girls for partners.&#13;
&#13;
     Mr. McWilliams, one of our most extensive farmers,  built him a house here and expects to live in it this winter. &#13;
&#13;
     J. H. Bernard has built a factory and is going to manufacture wagons and farm implements. He and our blacksmith are turning out some good work.&#13;
&#13;
     Our merchants are all doing a good business, and there are but two changes that I know of. Mr. Neely has purchased the interest of his partner, Mr. Vance, and has restocked his store, and is doing a big biz. George Mamson has traded the El Paso House and furniture for a farm, and his successor J. Q. Graham, is playing mine host for the benefit of the traveling public, and for the few poor mortals here who are not blessed with a "household angel." He dishes up as good hash as any hotel in the state, and says that as long as Kansas City, Leavenworth, Lawrence, Wichita and other places send out "drummers" that leave the wealth, he will continue to do so.&#13;
&#13;
     Judge L. E. Vance, the gentleman nominated on the liberal county ticket for probate judge, is a resident of our town, and is a gentleman fully qualified for the position, and although a "crow eater," will carry this and surrounding townships where he is well known.&#13;
&#13;
     "Farmer Doolittle," your farmer correspondent from this place, being a strong supporter of the "honest sage," feels so badly over the election returns from North Carolina, Maine and other places that he cries for "a lodge in some vast wilderness," where rumors of political success may never reach him more.&#13;
&#13;
     We are all please to see the improvement in your paper. Keep on, and you will make it one of the best county papers in the state. As soon as the mail arrives from Wichita the office is filled and the general cry is "give me my EAGLE." Through neglect of the department at Wichita we failed to receive this week's issue. They sent the Southwestern mail here instead of ours. More anon.&#13;

              <text>Biographical Sketch of the Life of Albert Minnich&#13;
&#13;
     Few men in this section are more widely or favorably known than the subject of this sketch, Mr. A. Minnich.&#13;
     Born in Trenton, Tuscarawas county, Ohio, March 29, 1842, the son of a prosperous merchant (Mr. Jno. Minnich, Sr.) he early inbibed a taste for merchant le pursuits, and the age when most boys are engaged with their marbles, tops, etc., found him behind his father's counter in the capacity of clerk, and, in due course of time, as the Book-keeper for the firm of Minnich &amp; Sons, his father being senior member of the firm, as well as one of the oldest settlers of the Tuscarawas Valley. In 1862 Mr. A. Minnich was united in marriage to Miss Hannah Tucker, and in 1871, with his family, he moved to Derby (then called El Paso,) where he and his brother, John H. Minnich, erected the first store building and opened a full and complete general stock of goods. Later, his brother, J. H., withdrew and Albert continued as sole proprietor of one of the most successful stores of the county. In 1884 Mr. Minnich found his business had increased so as to compel him to provide more room, in consequence of which, he erected, just north of the old site, one of the finest store rooms in the county, where he is still conducting a large and prosperous business. &#13;
     When Mr. Minnich began business in Derby (then El Paso,) Newton was the nearest Railroad station. Wichita being only a small village of a few small houses, and as El Paso was only a stage station and a little trading post on the old trail, much might be said concerning the struggles incident to those early times, but space will not permit. Although Mr. Minnich may be considered a very conservative man, he is ever found among the foremost in all matters touching the progress and upbuilding of his community, while his hand is alway, wide open to every worthy charity. In politics he is an uncompromising Republican - from principle, not merely from impulse - always taking an active part in local politics. For many years he held the office of Justice of the Peace, and to his honor, it is said that he succeeded in settling, by arbitration or compromise, far more cases than were brought to trial before him. &#13;
     On the 5th day of Jan., 1888, Mr. Minnich was stricken with paralysis, effecting his right side, and rendering him speechless, since which sad event his business has been under the management of his son, Bert Minnich. In his sad afflict on Mr. Minnich is surrounded by a loving family consisting of a wife, one son and three daughters. As his mind is perfectly clear, and his memory good, nothing pleases him better than a visit from his old friends. He enjoys their conversation quite as well as ever, and through the members of his family (who understand him quite well) he is able to express himself quite fully. He still supervises, in a general way, his business.</text>
