Eighty Thousand Dollars Invested By sin'
gle Individual.

Within week We have been called on BY
1--WE capitalists, all Of whom acknowledged
that their attention WAS first called to, and
that their after visits and investments were
made in our city Is the direct result Of
reading the EAGLE. Yesterday again We
were honored with . call from August
Knight, Esq, one of St. Louis wealthy citi-
zsns, who has placed $4,000 in Wichita
real estate within the past week. he called
he said, to get acquainted with with the
man whose inspirations he bad caught and
to ray that his faith in the future Of Wich'
it, now equaled our own. He was accom-
panied BY Mr.. E. B. Ebbert, OF this city,
who oas been sending him the EAGLE until
he could stand it no longer. Mr.. Knight
deposited with the Citizens bank yesterday
the amount named to cover his purchases
Of the week, much Of which is Of the
choicest property and all Of which will
double by the time the Chicago and Rock
Island and the other two roads reach this
point. He would laugh at . man who
should offer him 100000 for his property.
Mr.. Gilbert says that Mr.. Knight is consid-
cred, at home, rather . conservative busi-
ness man. with no speculative tendencies.
Mr.. knight himself. in explanation OF his
large investments, said to US that Wichita
is assuredly the most delightful young city
he was ever in; that there was An atmos-
phere pervading its life, and spread in
it makeup which points to inevitable and
great attainment. After paying for the
EAGLE . year In advance he departed, say
ing that if Wichita didn't have all his future
it had captured his heart and that he should
often return.

DARING ROBBERY.

There was immense excitement over q
supposed burglary at P. V. Healy's Office
about O'Clock last evening. Tho particu-
lars are about as follows: Healy has one
kew for one door of the Office and McCune
has key for the other door. Pat came "a

TABLE TALK.

A number Of guests at table at the Man.
haitian hotel were discussing the respective
merits of Kansas, Colorado and California.
The bulk of opinion was that Kansas lead
the procession in nearly all the elements Of
progress, prosperity and profit to all those
engaged in almost any line Of business, and
that Wichita and surrounding country lead
all other parts of the state. One man
thought Colorado good state, and another
said there had been 500 sunk in Colorado
for every dollar it produced and others
agreed in this decision. One gentleman
who had Travelled over all the west in search
of home and finally settled down in this
city, declared that there is more good farm
ing land in Sedgwick and Sumner counties
than in the whole state Of California.
One can hear comparisons of this sort, BY
strangers who have been around the circle,
almost any day in this city and it is hard to
listen to all this and say nothing about it,
notwithstanding the modesty OF our people
and our press.

and departed this life May 10Th, 1856, aged
So yesrs, month and 8 days.

lived a consistent christian until his death

permitted 70 rec visions Of beauty while in
this life.

NOT LOCATED.

Some Of the fellows in town who are
very anxious to sell few lots have dropped
upon a new scheme. They preface thei'
remarks telling of good bargain. by say
ing the Garfield university has been beer
located just q little beyond and the street
car line is sure very soon to 60 right past
it. As pointer for all who are tortured by
such harrangues it might be well to bear in
mind that the Garfield university has not
yet been located.
One of the directors of that institution
said yesterday that the site had not baen de.
termined, but when it was be did not think
the board would take into consideration
whose lots were joining, neither did he
think the numberless lies concerning the
matter would decide the question.

OF THE SORT THAT RULES THE
WORLD.

"a cherub's voice doth whisper In child's,
There 10 shrine within her little heart"
One of the great fine homes OF this city,
the silence of whose halls and spacious
rooms have been disturbed only by the un-
concerned voice of its master or the quiet
steps of its petite mistress, was oil broken up
by the wall of little stranger during the
quiet hours OF night before last, and the
heart of our friend, Reuben Il. Boys, Is he
looked down upon the face OF bis infant
daughter for the first time, glowed with
quiet love which love in its mysterious in
fuences was like no other ever felt before.
And the little being thus welcomed will not
only bring . new light to that home, but in
spite of any preconceived notions or ideas
of the youthful parents. che will be the i'm
perisl mistress of both home and hearts un-
til, if ever, she is superseded by ayounger
king or queen. Tho EAGLE, therefore, be Is
leave to offer an additional homage to the
fair little stranger.

MORE MATERIAL WANTED,

The EAGLE said but month or two since
that if all the buildings contracted for, and
calculated upon, to 60 up this summer were
to 60 up there would be a shortage on brick.
The contractors. or some of them, laughed
and pointed to our numerous brick yards.
Now, the building season has hardly set in
and the cry goes up for building material.
Judge Little went to let contract yester-
day for brick and was informed that all
the brick in sight and all that could be
burned for weeks were engaged and that be
would have to put off his building for the
present. Hundreds Of buildings are under
contract and, as we said at the time referred
to, there is going TO be a lack Of material.

BATHS.

An EAGLE reporter yesterday visited the
location Of DR.. J. p. Purdey's new enter
prise. The foundation is about completed
and the work on the pool is progressing
finely. The Turkish bath room is 25x9O
feet, and the pool 45150. In the deepest
part the pool will be about five feet deep,
and reaches this depth by gentle slope.
The doctor proposes to have everything
completed in about month. A free plunge
will be granted on the first day, which
doubtless many Of the boys will enjoy more
than those that follow,

unintentional wrong to two very worthy

offered him, nor will he receive much en-
couragement to accept it from the article in
this mornings EAGLE. do not object to
your reading me lecture on my duty to the

apology to the two worthy persons unwit-
tingly associated with ecclesiastical
