Willard Simms is certainly a clever artist,
as his rendition and impersonation of
this difficult and eccentric character
proves Ed NJ KimbalI essayed several
roles, but that Of Elder Sniffles was both
finished and excrueiatingly funny. The
burlesque Duet from Nascotte, by Messrs
Simms and kimball, received hearty en-
cores, and the contralto solo, "Margu-
rite" by Vivian Patee, established that
lady as one OF the best singers that has ap-
peared here Ollie Evans, III the char&c-

He IS De- IGHTED.

Mr.. E. J. Jeffress, of Edwardsviile H.,
a well known business man and owner of
large properties and other means in Hi
nois St. Louis and elsewhere, is in the city.
Less than year ago he, with number of
his fellow-townsmen, purchased a tract of
land in this city upon the recommendation
of friend here. None of the purchasers
had ever seen the property AT a meeting
recently held they decided to have Mr..
Jeffress lin whose well known business sa-
gacity they had the utmost confidence)
come out to " ichita and make a report on
their investment. Accordingly he arrived
in the city this week and for hree days has
done nothing but inspect the city from
center to circumference, making the most
searching inquiry into the resources and fu-
ture prospects of Wichita. To an EAGLE rep
resentative who met him shortly before
his departure tor his home last even
ing. Mr.. Jeffress said he WIS ac-
tually and agreeably surprised to find
here such an excellent city with
such a brilliant future as Wichita.
From what he had heard before coming
here, he would not have been surprised
had he found thousand or so OF emoty
houses and business on the streets practi-
cally dead. On the contrary Mr.. ]. says
that, in his opinion, there are compare
lively fewer empty houses in Wichita than
in st. Louis, which is live city, and that
the business transacted every day in this
city indicated the most live corpse he has
ever seen. He became entnusi astic ana
said, among many other things that his
visit here was really about the most
gratifying one be had ever enjoyed As
for himself he was perfectly satisfied
knowing that his money invested III that
form would bring him as great an increase
as in any other manner he might place it,
and he intends to so report to his asso-
ciates.
The gentleman left last night over the
Rock Island for home via Kansas City and
