Notwithstanding the threatening aspect
OF the hours yesterday designated for Pro-
fessor Merriett's first exhibition Of his
work in this city, quite large number OF
ladies and gentlemen visited the Occidental
parlors where thirteen portraits were on
exhibition. The comments were all in one
direction and that was in praise Of the ex-
cellency of the work. While some of the
faces were strange to great majority Of
the visitors, the work spoke for itself. All
but one of the pictures were in pastel, but
hardly any two OF them had been treated
face brought out. undera high-ligbt with
Rembrandt effects, and another OF gentle
man. Mr. Il. l.. Walker. was treated with
the same effects but by a low or back light
These two pictures attracted considerable
attention and comment, being Of the same
school Of art, and the only difference being
the different lights under which they were
trea'ed. The life size portrait of
Col. IL. W. Lewis fairly speaks IN ist natur-
alness, the undertones being very deli
cate, and the verdict seemed to be that
his picture came the nearest the living,
although others awarded that degree to the
picture of Mr.. II. l.. Walker. The portrait
OF Mr.. Oak Davidson could hardly be eX-
celled for vivid expression, while that Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Niederlander's little girl
seems pertect Those who remember Mr..
Smith, the express agent, or who knew him
before his las: sickness would be almost
startled by the vivid accuracy with which
his living face has been reproduced. That
of his widow. Mrs. Smith, is very pretty,
smooth. and soft. but being unacquainted
with the lady herself, we cannot speak so
definitely The portrait of Mr.. Popenoe,
of the Occidental. is good, he being fine
subject.
But we cannot mention all OF the dozen
or more works. The day being so unfavor-
able Prof Nerrett informed us that the pie
lures would he left in the parlor during
Monday afternoon and Monday night, when
all who desire 10 do can visit them, and
no doubt many will avail themselves Of
the opportunity.

is late here aud most of the crop is just
coming in silk. 1 have not seen as good
prospect for heavy crop anywhere as IN
The Arkansas valley, though corn is look
ing very well in Potawatomie county. After
travelling about 400 miles through one Of the
most wonderful and fertile parts of Kansas,
my admiration for such state am unable
TO describe while passing along beautiful
valleys and all dotted marks of mans most
potent influence of civilization, and while
looking out upon these. where the beauti-
full prairie stretches out like the ocean
aud seem TO blend with the sky. while the
soft hay clouds wraps all the landscape in
its silyery folds. Having passed through
as fine 4 country as ever the sun shown
upon, | am forced to say that the Great

destined TO become famous, with Wichita
as its metropolis with many railways and
wonderful growth, is no doubt destined to

FROM THE NORTHWEST.

STOCKTON. Rocks Co.. HANS, Aug. Il.
To the Editor Of tse Daily Eagle:
Should these few lines reach the reader,
Of your most valued paper. which is a great
source OF comfort 10 me out here. hope
they may find something of interest ia
them. After leaving the Forest City
have visited and passed through seventeen
counties, most OF which are in the central
portion of the state. soon observed that
there were no peaches north OF Newton.
but plenty OF apples. which seen to be
plenty in ali the counties where have been.
where the trees are old enough to produce.
As for crops. will say that wheat is extra
good 70 far Us have been able to ascertain.
and In the more western counties there
seems TO be much heavier growth OF straw.
though perhaps not any greater yield per
acre. There is quite an acreage OF rye
sown here, which is a good crop, but very
title oats. The acreage of barley is no;
