The pictures given this week were received
too late fer our emigration edition, SO we pro-
duce them now. Some time since the Land
Commissioner of the Atchison, Topeka d San
ia Fe railroad published work for gratui-
tous distribution in Europe, which was pro-
fusely illustrated with scenes taken from this
valley The artist visited Sedgwick county
and made five pencil sketches, two of which
we gave in our Centennial edition, the other
three we give this week. pen Gil sketch is
not SO truthful as photograph, but our cast
ern readers will get very fair idea of the
general characteristics Of our valley, the ''lay
of the land" and its streams from the sketches
given. The eastern portion OF Rockford
township, in the south part of our county, Is
made up of rolls and swells, while the land on
the Cowskin is less undulating and more level.
The '.lariated COW" in the foreground of the
latter picture is very common sight. The
third scene was sketched near the upper line
OF the county between the two rivers several
months ago, where Steele & Levy were out
showing lands The picture OF the capitol
represents the State House as fully complet-
ed The eastern wing only has been built.
The other picture of our own cottage was
photographed by that accomplished artist.
Nereus Baldwin His work was good, but the
engrayer made a botch in working out the
details The picture is not near SO good as
the cottage.
No man since the days Of him whom Joseph
entertained by reading out OF dream book,
has taken the same interest in grasshoppers
as has been daily and hourly eyineed by Doc
Thayer, OF this place. Months and months at
ter the last hopper had left Doc could be seen
any day in the attitude Of the devout Phariseo.
his face heavenward, his eyes squinted nearly
shut and his mouth wide open, peering into
the vaulted empyrean in quest Of the orthop-
terra. The susceptibility of the average Kan
san upon that question is well understood.
Dozens and dozens, day after day, would be
taken in and done for until nearly every man
in the county had been fooled into straining
his eyes to catch glimpse of the imaginary
hoppergrasses,-two or three gawkers would
infect a hundred others, sidewalks would blood
up, and the street come to stand-stlll, when
Doc would slide down and out. In time the
sell became too old when the incorriglble grass
hopper man procured two green glass soda
bottles which he had strapped together with
tin band, IN the form OF a fieid-gass and
neatly painted. When the size Of the street
crowd jusfifies Doc takes conspicuous stand
applies the bottle-rig to his peppers and in
tently gazes skyward. TO the innocent Inter
ested questioner he but sadly remarks ''grass-
hoppers" and passes the bottles. A failure to
see any thing, even the sell, and an attempt to
adjust the focus OF the continuance, is the sig
nal for everybody, except our anxious friend,
to yell. That the owner of the unique fiel d.
glass will get grass-hopped we have little
doubt-hopped by some meek-eyed granger
and sent to grass.
