NEWS OF THE VALLEY.
From the Hutchinson News

Reno county has population of6,00O
industrious and temperance people.
WICHITA We had not been TO
Wichita for over year till Monday.
We found that the city had grown
largely in size. indicatinga prosperous
interim. Among other things several
fine brick buildings have gone up, OF
which we particularize the EAGLE
block, the First National bank, the l..
5. land Office block, and a magnificent
hotel now Ill process of construction.
However business at present is said to
be dull and money close. The people
of Wichita complain extensively of
hard times.
The derrick now being built for the
Reno county coal and mining company
by l.. II. Lehman is sixteen feet square
at the base, is forty feet high and six
feet square at the top. It's sufficiently
strong TO raise five tons and upwards.
Mr. Lehman. the builder, has been in
the coal and oil prospecting business
for fifteen wears. seven years OF which
were spent in oil and coal regions of
PENNSYLVANIA. lie is fully competent
for the enterprise in hand. The COM
pany may congratulate itself upon Sc
curing Mr.. Lehman.
