man. ran away this afternoon on Third and
Walnut streets. No damage done, though it

We learn to day that there is just a posi-
bility that Mrs. Sweetland, the artist, may
spend . mouth or too in Yankton this fall.
Mrs. Sweeiland is now at Lincoln, Neb,
where she has been making portraits and
teaching painting for . month past, and she
10 being urged, upon completing her order
there, to return, both to Chicago and St.
Louis, having spent considerable of her time
in each Of these cities. Friends Of hers in
this vicinity are urging her to come here,
thus far without any definite answer. The
portraits ofGov. Nance and Lieut.. Governor
Csrnss, of Nebraska, upon exhibition at the
Nebraska stats fair, we're the work Of this
artist. We hope she may conclude to come
and believe those Of our citizens Who desire
portraits ofthemselves or their children, and
who love and appreciate art would give her
. hearty reception and liberal patronage.
