Mss IDA pATcHEN has executed a
craEoU portrait OF the late Mr.. Fred Bor-
cherdt, which reflects the highest credit
upon her as an artist. An ordinary siz-
ed photograph was used as a copy and
from this Miss Patchen has produced a
life size portrait. Every liuiament is re-
produced with wonderful fidelity and one
can hardly believe that the work is not
done by one who has an extended repu-
tation as an artist. Miss Patchen has
some thoughts Of making the drawing of
crayon portraits profession. Should
she conclude to do so, she will certainly
attain no small degree of eminence in
that direction.

elevators one near the front fer carrying
grain to the fourth floor and another
near the rear to bring grain down to the
growing floors. At the rear will be the

fue from the latter is to be of the
hight Of 20 feet Each Of these rooms
