NEW YEARS AT THE CAPITAL.

WASHINGTON, january 2.-Particularly
noticeable among the foreign presentations
ct the Presidents reception thss morning
were the new Chinese minister and assistant
dressed in full Chinese costume: very rich,
and wearing upon his cap the insignia Of
rank to which he belongs. The Turkish
minister was also notable figure, wearing .
red cap with tassel during tire reception, ac-
cording to the custom OF his nationality.
The President was very elegantly dressed.
in black cut-sway coat, dark pants and vest.
fauItless gloves, the only dash Of white in
his costume. This innovation upon the Gus
tom so long held by Presidents was subject
to no little remark. The Presidents excel
lent taste, so often commended in the past
few months, has received further commends-
ton.
At II o'clock the army and navy officers
called, presenting a very handsome appear
ance in their brilliant uniforms.
The marine band discoursed excellent mu-
sic during the hours of the reception.
At p. IN. the general reception to citizens
began.
The attendance of the army and navy OFF,
GERS this year was particularly large and bril-
liant. Among the habitucs Of the White
House the reception was remarked Is re-
markably quiet one, though generally well
attended. tis
There was d. subtlued, solemn air in the
personal conduct Of many callers, which
showed that recollections of the scenes Mt
the White House the past few months were
very vivid before their minds. Probably to
none are they more vivid than to Presisisus
Arthur. Cards Of admission were Ia deep
bordered black. =, :,
IL is the general remark that the house
never looked so well, rs at this time the halls
have been re.urnished and repaired in excel
lent taste with rich Turkish carpets laid, and
walls blue and red, newly decorated. The
house wns very comfortable in the early part
Of the day, but the constant stream OF callers
passing through the halls making it neeessa-
ry to keep them constantly open, chilled the
atmosphere in the reception rooms aud the
biting winter air Of the outside had, before
| 2 o'clock, found its way to every part OF the
house. During the citizens hour the mum.
Der OF callers was unusually large, due in
part to the fact that the day, though cold ,wss
unusually pleasant, and the fact that few peo-
| pie have seen the President.

The disease called pink eye, Of which so
much has been said, and antidotes for which

months il has, after the fashion Of the epi.
zootic, been sweeping west, jumping from
one town to another, and becoming less ma
lignant with its progress to the land Of
healthful breezes. The pinkish cast Of the
white of the eye, from which the disease
takes its name. is only an indication, and not
the disease its slf, which in fact is bronchial

The intimation given out by the EAGLE
lat spring that passenger depot would be
built at the | .tersection Of the Frisco aud
Santa Fe roads, near the northern limits Of
the city, was received with some little skep-
ticism. One business man told us that the
information would not deter him from SELL
Ing some cheap residence lots ut the old
prices. We couldn't afford to convince
him, although our information was positive
and its reliability unquestioned. In ad-
dition to the grounds within the "Y" the
companies have purchased strips ON each
side OF the track SO and 100 feet respectively
by 1000 feet long. The plan shows very
nice passenger depot, eighty feet long by
thirty feet wide and two stories high. The
freight business OF both roads will still be
be done at the old depot, the passenger, mail
and transfer business at the new. The spot
designated for the new depot Is on the west
side of the main track of the Santa Fe and
north Of Oak street

Wichita Mound Nursery.

The Wichita Mound nursery is better pre-
pared than ever before to furnish home
grown stock. And farmers make great mis-
take when they purchase fruit trees from
agents Of foreign nurseries, when they can
buy home grown trees from tirst-class nur-
sery, and responsible firm. The death Of
j. II. Sturns, who has been st the head OF
the Mound nursery, will make no difference
in the future conduct OF the business, ~ 1t
will be conducted by brother, who has, in
fact, superintended il for several years.
Then don't be misled by travelling fruit tree
peddlers of foreign bigh-sounding named
nurseries, who carry around specimens OF
fruit in magnifying glass bottles, but buy
your trees from the Mound nursery, which
you can select yourself. and plant the same
day they are taken up. and are warranted

REV. Hrwrrr's IDEA.

Rev. j. ID. Hewitt, the excellent and wide
awake pastor Of the Presbyterian society
of this city, has evolved new idea, SO to us
at least, and withal one that will prove in
teresting and profitable. He has had bound
q number Of books Of memoranda of soft
paper, containing one hundred and four
leaves, or two hundred and eight pages,
each. Besides the date, blanks for the text
and subject of each discourse are printed on
each leaf with. blank space left for jotting
down impressions, views and the outline Of
the sermon. Every member Of his congre-
CATION is furnished with :, of these books,
aud two sermons on 4 Sabbath for the
year will just Ill the books, at the end Of
which time an examination and comparison
will no doubt furnish many valuable hints
pertaining to the work OF conscientious
pastor.
