A WICHITA BOOMER.

Some time since the EAGLE published a
letter from a Mr.. ]. II. Mcknight, con-
nected with the well known manufactur-
ing firm of pharmaceutical medicines In
New York, the Usage Medicine company.
The letter will be remembered as fine,
large, cool, wet-blanket laid over the
shoulders of a lot of northern Texas
boomers VINO, gathered at a hotel in Dallas,
were endeavoring to convince themselves
that Wichita would never be as great as
some one of the cities of northern Texas
Mr.. Meningitis letter, to the EAGLE, was
not only a complete REPUTATION of all the
criticisms offered by the said boomers and
vindication of all Wichita's superior
claims, but a mastery summing up of the
advantages, adjuncts, cognatiOns and cor
relations which assure Wichita's future
greatness and supremacy as a center over
any city southwest of the Missouri river.
1t will be remembered, by some at
least, that Mr. Mcknight backed the
Judgment of his letter by buying
some valuable property in this city, among
others three story pressed brick front
business house on Main street, together
with some unimproved lots. That gentle
man arrived in this city yesterday, directly
from the Pacific coast and the Puget Sound
cities and towns. For three months he
has been visiting all the principal cities
of the west, including Denver and Salt
Lake. in the interest of his firm, and he
says his opinion touching the superior adj
vantages and location of Wichita have
not changed and that no city in the west,
great or small, either on the Missouri
river, in the Rocky mountains or on the
coast, has such prospect for the fu-
ture, such chance for development
in all directions, and such a mar
gin for increase in realty values
as has Wichita. This is his opinion,
without prejudice or favor and as an earn
est of this conclusion he is now nego-
tiating for another piece of property adj
vantageously located, as an investment.
Mr.. Knight showed us card just gotten
out by his firm which names New York
City, Wichita and San Francisco as the
future distributing points for the products
manufactured by the company. The
house in San Francisco is now open, and
the one in Wichita will be opened this

ing and so forth now being printed bear
ing the name of Wichita. From Wichita

AN OLD TIMER COMES BACK.

Hanging in the EAGLES editorial room
is a picture, prospective view Of Wichita
taken in June, 1870. The camera scooped
in all there was of the Peerless Princess at
that remote date, embracing the present
intersection of Main street and Douglas
avenue where stands three or four horses
knee deep in rank growing prairie grasses,
with three or four old fashioned prairie
schooner freight wagons occupying the
foreground. Back of these are a half
dozen frame buildings of primative type,
which as we said constituted the entire
metropolis of the Arkansas valley, as it
then appeared, with the figure Of a man
astride the cone Of one of its frontier bust
ness places. This elevated and conspicu-
Gus individual, however, did not of himself
make up the entire population ofthe town,
as two or three others are to be seen
perched on the top of high prairie schoon-
ers mentioned. But ali there were
of them seemed aspiring, evinc-
ing a desire to roost high. The faint
shadow of the one astride the ridge pole is
that of Hon. T. L. Nixon, then an
optimisticaI youth who helped to carry
the surveyors chain-a rope with knots in
it-by which the meets and bounds of
property now worth a thousand dollars a
front foot were fixed. Lea Nixon was not
only an amateur surveyor but moral
pattern for the wild and woolly cowboys
and other denizens of the infant metropolis
and something of an artist withal. The
latter accomplishment accounted for his
being astride that ridge pole. He was
painting a sign for the embryo Quitting
store beneath.
Lea married Miss Mathews, a sister to
George and the doctor, both now residents
of this city, and then he struck out for
pastures new, landing on Puget Sound,
where he became one of the founders of
Tacoma, and accommodating wealth. Our
old friend dropped in on Us yesterday. He
was just in from New York, where he had
been negotiating some railroad surities.
He had not seen Wichita for nine years
and the old land marks have well nigh all
disappeared He finds the two rivers and
the sky, but little else that looks familiar,
and even these seem changed. Mr.. \.
will. with his wife, remain few days in
the city visiting relatives and friends.

A WICHITA MAN IN ENGLAND.

Mr. J. W. Horribly, one of Wichita's
business men, at PRESENT in the west OF
England on a visit, writes that he was sur
prised to find so much interest manifested
in the western states, and especially IN
Wichita He says that he is piled with
questions from all sides concerning Kan
sas, and that he finds great many think
ing seriously of coming to America to try
their fortunes in the west. He closes his
letter by saying that as he was able to con
scienciously recommend Wichita from his
own personal experience he expects to
be followed home by some of the enter
prising capitalists of the west Of England
who are seeking homes and investments
in new country. He further adds that
he has been surprised at the number he
has met who have visited Wichita and
have a good word to say for her enterprise
and prosperity
