Another kiln of brick at the ard near the depot is enclosed ready for burning. It only cost a to announce yourself a a candidate for office through the Eagle. Thanks to Mr.

Allison Tor the nice watermelon he brought us. It was of the orange variety. 'Sir. Annie Nellcs bought four lots in Mead's addition, last week, upon which she proposes to build. Our Texas friends designate themselves as long boms, and the residents of this country as short horns.

Permanency of "Wichita. The superintendent or public instruction favors our columns with another communication this week. The result of the ote taken at the Probv-tcrian festival for president was a majority in faor of Grant. The masons arc laying the sidewalk in front of the Eagle bloclc with flagging from the Florence quarries. One hundred and seventy-one car loads of cattle were shipped last eek, and the road hag been sending out one and two trains extra every day thU week.

The late rains hav again affected the Big Arkansas. "It is now nearly three months since the river was fordahle. The school house is undergoing repairs, blackboards ore being made preparatory to commencement of the fall term. A few claims have been taken, and settlement commenced, on Medicine Lodge creek, about eighty miles southwest of thl place. The Star clothing store has removed three doors further down stre'et into a handsome room.

Mr. Jacks is doing a good business. There were three.tnen shot at Hav mond last Saturday night. It took that number to make the regular week's quota, so our informant said. E.

D. Reese, traveling agent of the Lawrence Standard, was in town this week. He opines that the liberal cause has much strength in the Southwest. Hobbs, the railroad conductor, saj if the man who stole his black pointer dog docs not return him Immediately he had better order a wooden overcoat. Frank Shannon is contemplating the erection of a permanrut residence at Wichita and has purchased lots in Mead's addition with that determination.

C. C. Ken on, with C. F. Tierce is building a new house in Mead's addition, and 11.

C. M. Appleby is building on Emporia avenue, in the same addition. Mr. Wilson, of Arkansas Citv, the sun or tfthelincofrattrsavd from here to the above elty, ni in town this week.

He sasthe roBte ii lntery way practical. Wm. W. Smith, or Napa, California, purchased this week or Steele ft Smith 1)40 acres of land in Sedgwick county upon which he will start an extensive nursery. Owing to the fact that wc wish to remove the Eagle to its new cage in the Eagle block, corner Douglas avenne and Main street, wc publish one day earlier this week.

J. Challcn. a lawyer from Cincinnati, who owns 140 quarter sections of land in theNcoOio valley, was here this week looking up a location for a corn-consuming factory. Mr. Cooper in building a snug little home in English's addition.

From the number of buildings going up it would scrm that the spirit or building had but just taken hold or our people. Mrs. Blood, of the Douglas Av cnuc House, started for a visit to her friends in Lawrence, on last Monday. Before she returns she will go to Minneapolis, Minn. We wish her a pleasant trip.

The stock exchange this week has been quite brisk. The ruling prices are, for ear-lings $fi, two- car olds 10, cows 12, threc-j ear olds $18. becv es $21. One or two sales were effected at $22 BO. The faith or our people in the continued prosperity and permanency or Wichita is a matter or surprise to many new -comers.

The future importance or the place is never doubted by property owners and business men, and seldom questioned by others. To account for this faith puzzles many strangers, who, in turn stagger older inhabitants by demanding a reason for its present growth and future prospects. The answer of "why, evervbody sas so," may be ioiicIuivc but not convincing to those vv ho desire to inv est money. Still the money is Invested, and still the town goes on grow ing. When an experienced business man or seeker after a new location, living in some eastern state, opens up a map or Kansas he will be sure tp put his finger down upon our leoation and remark, "There's a chance for a town." When he arrives upon the ground and notes our life and business he mentally adds "good but after lew ing the great and fertile alleys of the Little and Big rivers, of Chisliolm, Ncu-ncscah and their tributaries, he invariably adds the adjective "big" or "great." He has recognized the elements upon which our present and future propentv arc based without knowing it.

The faith in the permanency and supremacy of Wichita, though seemingly Intuitive, i nevertheless susceptible or demonstration. It is based on location and surroundings. With no rival within a hundred miles north andcat, or within five hundred miles south and west situated at the junction or two important rivers, vv hose allc.v in extent and richness are not excelled in the known world the practical terminus of a great line of railway, and at the head of the cattle trail, make up part or the location and surroundings. The vast country that surrounds the place, and that is drained by the above rivers, is not only being rapidly settled by practical men, who, inured to toil, come to nuke great farms, but is being dotted all over with rapidly growing tow ns. To and for all these Wichita is the entrepot.

To Wichita will they and do they come for goods in bulk, und to Wichita do they and will they come to dispose or surplus productions and for From and to this point docs all the travel and mall matter come and go for the great, rich and almost boundless country south, southeast and southwest. Is not the lire and business, then, or our town easily accounted Tor? As to railroads, present and prospective, leaving out of the question the trade and grow th or the place and lew ing the place onl in tuc light or a point or location for a proposed city, there appears upon the map, and from the formation ol country' and course of streams, and direction from us or great commercial marts, lines for three railroads. One or the line seems a possibility, another very probable, and the third a railroad certain. A railroad up this broad, rich valle or the Big Arkansas from Memphis or Napoleon to Wichita is the railroad certain as certain as the sun rises and sets and time goes on, and that the right or ay can be obtained through the Indian territory. Of tfie magnitude of such a road, of Its connections, and or the immense local trade that would spring up from here to the Mississippi rh cr all along its line, we need not specify.

Ev cr body comprehends the situation at once. A road already reaches from Memphis to Little Kock, and on up the valley to Clirksville, near the Indian line. It will be at our door whenever congress grants some company the right of way through the Indian territory. Wichita's probable railroad is the line from here to Humboldt. Ft.

Scott and Serial! a portion of which is already built. This road is the riircit outUt of this valley to St. Louis and eastern markets. The interests of this great valley will not alone dc-mand its construction, but St. Louis and the counties along its line.

The construction ofthc Fifth Parallel railroad is only a question of time. The only line or railroad that Wi hi-ta desired in addition to the above was an improbable route and or doubtful construction, yet that was the very first one built t. the T. S. F.

It. K. from the north. These Ideas and suggestions wc dot down partly as a reason for the faith within us, and partly to answer doubts and to set our interested readers to thinking upon the proposition for themselves. Wichita is destined to become a great Inland Mr.

Chris. Pcarce, since disaolvingnartner-ship with Vantillburgh, has opened a new stable on Third street, between Market and Main, and fully supplied the same ith neat, tat and light-running buggies and a picked lot of stock. He ha several as fancy turn-outs as can be found in any of the older towns in the state. On last Saturday evening, with his bright ha in glittering harness, he whirled up to our door and invited us to a seat in one of his new buggies. We may not have been the observed and envied of everybody, nevertheless the ride vv as delightful.

Giv Chris, a call. Settlers will find an interesting letter in this paper from Willis Drummond, addressed to Judge Lauck of this place, touching a ruling on the expiration of tunc on the diminished lands. Tliey will alo find a long and important official circular from the department, touching the disposal of the Cherokee strip. We shall publish all matters, official or otherwise, that pertsin to the U. S.

land office at thl point, or to the interet of the settlers. Mr. Jameon, a conductor on the western extension of the T. S. F.

K. met with an accident which soon after produced death. In attempting to board his train as it was leaving a station he was thrown under the cars and his arm severed from his bod v. By the time medical assistance was procured he had become so weak from the loss of blood that he could not stand the operation of amputation which was necessary. Last week's Eagle attempted to instruct the denizens in the proper pronunciation of "Wichita." Wcliave been told at least one hundred times that we were wrong.

J. It. Mead, who is the best of authority for any information connected with names and early settlement orthls valley, assures us that it is pronounced as ir spelled "Witclietah." We arc content, although to us "Wishetah" seemed the most euphonious. The "Green Front" we mean W. A.

Thomas Co. have received during the past week the heaviest supply or groceries ever brought into the valley all fresh and choice. For two da 8 the slrie walk was so filled with boxes, bales and packages that pedestrians vv ere compelled to take the street. The Thomases are cry popular traders, and ev er body knows that they sell goods cheap. Chas.

Marsh, principal agent or the T. S. F. at this point, has selected some lots in Mead's a Idition and will soon commence the building or a permanent home. It is said by railroad men that Mr.

Marsh is the best ticket and freight agent in the west, and we believe that our business men will be glad to hear that he becomes a permanent citizen. Mr. J. W. Lane, nephew or the late Gen.

Jas. II. Lane, brought up specimens or onions raised on his farm on the Ncnncscah, of three varieties silver skin, ellow darners and red wctherticld. Six or these weighed four pounds. The alley or the Ncnncscah is cry proriuctiv e.

He had one onion that measured eight inches in diameter. "Old Reliable." McClcke the "veteranjM board dealer," bought last week 100 car loads of lumber at Hannibal and Chicago for their arris at Wichita and branch yard at Wellington and "Winfleld. We buy largely of first bands for cash and ship by contract. We have no old stock that was bought at high figures and shipped at high rates. Oar lumber has been run off at low rates, which has enabled us to keep pace with the declining markets cast.

Our lumber is graded in Chi-cago by T. W. Harvey, and is as good as can be found east of Chicago. We ask parties wishing lumber to call and see us and get our figures. Examine out grades, and if we do not sell ou as cheap as others don't buy of us.

Parties wishing to purchase flour, groceries, hardware, dry goods and notions will find large stocks in Wichita, at living prices, and good sooial gentlemen to deal them out. McClure Co.

"Though last not least," is an adage as true as it is old, and its truth is again exemplified by the completion or the new line to the east ia Creston and Burlington, which, though the last, may be called the best route in the west. The line consists or the Kansas City, Saint Joseph and Council Bluffs railroad, with two daily trains from Kansas City, through Atchison, Lcav envv orth and St. Joseph to the Missouri state line, there connecting with the Burlington route, which leads direct to Chica go, Cincinnati, Indianapolis. Logansport and Columbus through cars are being run to all these points. This line is well built, thoroughly equipped with ever modern improvement, including Pullman's sleeping and.

dining cars, and nowhere else can the passenger so completely depend on a speedy, safe and comfortable The Burlington route has admirably answered the query, "How to go East," by the publication of an interesting and truthful document containing a valuable and correct map, which can bo obtained free of charge by addressing General Passenger agent B.

Wh hita Is hav ing her first run or these distressing distempers.
