SOUTHERN KANSAS FAIR.
EVERYTHING READY FOR THE OPEN
ING OF THE EVENTFUL WEEK.
Ample Room and Abundant Entries OF
Exhibits-Perfect Pleasure Provid-
ed for Allan Outline Of
Appointments.

A visit to the grounds of the Southern
Kansas Fair association yesterday gave
the visitor a comprehensive idea of what
must be the scenes at the townsites in the
newly opened lands of Oklahoma just now.
Nowhere else could more animated scene
be found. Teams and wagons loaded with
lumber and other building materials, ma
chinery and all manner of articles for
structural and exhibition purposes, pour
ing into the grounds and depositing their
freightage; an army of mechanics with
saws and hammers keeping up ceaseless
din; scores of lsborers busy as bees every
where erecting extra booths and tents for
exhibits and refreshments and entertain
ment. And yet with all this seemingly
chaotic tumble everything was managed
with a degree of system, under the
guidance and immediate direction of Pres
ident Cambell, Secretary McNair and
Manager Wilson. Here, there, everywhere
almost at the same moment, these officers
SO directed everything that every move
ment and stroke of labor counted for the

formed upon the grounds in extending

ever. This department will again be un-
der the supervision and management of
Thos. Shaw, the popular music man of
Main street.
Near this the Stewart Architectural
Iron works have erected very attractive
design in ornamental lawn architecture

Not having time to construct substantial
buildings of sufficient capacity to accom-
MEDIATE the machinery of various kinds to
be exhibited the association has had
erected upon the grounds a number of
large circular tents for the use of exhib-
itors in that department., and in these the
displays of farm machinery, wagons, bug
gies pheatons, carriages, etc, will be made,
and in addition to the pavilions provided
by the association, a number of others
have been placed upon the grounds by ex
hibitors for their own use. Among these
last is a large canvass enclosure under
which the Robinson Machine Co.. of
Richmond Ind, and the Russell Manu-
featuring Co., of Massilon, Ohio, will
make exhibits of complete outfits of trac-
ton engines. threshers and separators, etc.
which those establishments had built ex-
pressly for the Southern Kansas fair.
This display is in charge of ". H. Burk,
who represents the two concerns named
jointly.
Another attractive feature in this class
of exhibits will be the display of spring
wagons made by the Kansas Spring
Wagon Co., of Wichita, under the COM
pany's private partition. Several others

FLESH TINTs AND 1DEAL1TY.
A Picture Worth a Journey to See.

Probably the picture that viii attract
artists and people of artistic instincts, gen.
orally, more than any other ever yet ex-
hibited in this city, can now be seen in the
window of the Martin Art store on North
Market. 1t is copy of 'L'Irida" the god
dess of the rainbow, from Heads celebrat-
ed allegorical work of ST. Lakes in Rome
The work is by Mrs. ". J. Sherman. 1t
is perfect reproduction of an original
copy painted by an English lady-artist,
who resided seven years in Rome, and
who. because of large landed interests
owned by her in Summer county, is now
making her home in Wellington, whose
name also is Sherman, and who
after waiting many months for the oppor-
tunity of seat in St. Luke's finally was
compelled to pay six hundred Ira for the
privilege of copying the figure. The re-
production in Martins window was the
work of five weeks under the eye of this
accomplished English artist, and is abso-
lutely in dimension, outline. shade and
color. even to the most delicate tints,
Heads own famous classical l. Irida. An
agent of The British Art" was in the city
last Saturday, who fortunately happened
to have in his portfolio large photo of
the masterpiece and who had also himself
seen the original. He at once declared
Mrs. SIS reproduction perfect in form and
color. L Irida, the goddess of the rain
bow, is the figure of q slightly formed,
daintily slender female, in midsir, hold
ing above her head a. antique censor, her
own face lighted up by the tints from the
face of the setting sun from whose rosy
rays a rainbow is family forming in her
wake. About her loins a delicate diaphon-
Gus drapery falls in beautiful folds
Beneath her is a landscape whose per-
spective is through the mouth of a great
dark cave The entire creation is classic,
modest, innocent and beautiful. There is
not a sensual suggestion or voluptuous
intimation in any outline-only purity
and the highest type of ideality and
artistic conception. Every lover of true
art in the city ought to see this work be-
fore its removal as it is entirely finished
except coat of vRrnish which will add to
its lustre and which it win receive as soon
as it is dry enough.
Mrs. S. has been asked TO permit the
exhibition of this piece aud 1.-THE Recluse"
at the fair this week, but as she cannot be
there to care for them she fears some
possible accident L'Irida is not for sale
but for the present, and untih"The Re-
cluse" becomes the property Of the lucky
titket holder both can be seen and studied
with profit and delight without cost.

ANOTHER BIG THING FOR WICHITA.
Large Agricultural Implement Factory BY
December lst.

The Kansas Cooperative Company, or
ganized under the laws of the state some
time since for the purpose of manufacture
ing especially the Brown Patent Double
Cultivator have, after some months delay
and work secured the necessary subscrip-
ton to the capital stock, having chosen
Wichita as the point for their plant, they
have secured the Gilbert Plow works, in
the suburbs of the city, together with all
the machinery, engines etc, which they
contain. The works consist of two or
three large brick buildings of permanent
character and just suited to the purposes
of the new company. 1t is announced
that in addition to the Double Cultivator

LITERARY LEAGUE.

One of the best entertainments of the
week was given by the Wichita Literary
League in the Peerless hall last Friday
evening, to large and attentive audience.
The program began with piano solo by
Miss Amelia Blssantz. which was admir-
ably rendered The paper 1.-The use VS. the
waste of time" by Mrs. F. E. Shaffer,
was highly appreciated and was in har-
mony with the object of the society, which
is to teach the benefits of the proper use
of time. The selection, "the hooking
bird" by Professor Sanford, Mrs. Sanford
and Professor Misner was well worth the
applause and encore which it received.
The recitation ''sandalphon" by Miss Inc
Creditor, received hearty applause as Miss
Creditor always merits. Between the de-
bators came Mr. Geo. Burns with harp and
guitar, filling again the hall with melody.
The debate, Resolved, that the govern
ment should own and control the railroads
created much enthusiasm, Mr. 7. f. Nc

points for the affirmative, (said the judge,
three to two,) which was met by H. G.

ENCOURAGING FOR WICHITA.

Mr.. J. Oak Davidson arrived home day
before yesterday from New England, where
he had been two or three weeks on bust
ness. He returns greatly elated over the
results of his trip. There is complete re-
vulsion of the late feeling of distrust in
the east about Kansas, and Wichita is
everywhere in high feather. Every CAPT
talist who understands the situation in
the west comedies that Wichita is just as
sure to make city as that Kansas will
continue to be state, and that the col
lapsed boom will have no other effect than
that already experienced in the way of a
two or three years stand-still, which
stand-still has not cost her any prestige or
taken from her any of her former advant-
ages. In fact it is thought by many east
ern investors and capitalists that Wichita
is yet to experience her really great and
substantial boom. Mr. Davidson also saw
the Burton car people, whose affairs are in
excellent shape and whose cars are in
greater demand every day. President
Jones of Winchester, and other officers and
stockholders will be in Wichita on the 5th
of October, ten days hence, to look their
property over and to size up Wichita.

JUDGE RINER.
Snort Biographical Sketch OF the Gentleman
by that Name.

The Honorable John A. Riner, who Is
now holding the government court in this
city, is one of the youngest members of the
federal judiciary in the United States, be-
ing but thirty-nine years old, as we learn
from tn eCheyenneApapersipuhlis hed at the
time OF his appointment year ago this
month. When Judge Foster, who has
been for many years United States dis
trict Judge for the district of Kansas,
was obliged, by failing health, TO give up
the duties of his position last March and
seek rest and recuperation abroad Honor
able Henry C. Caldwell, United States cir
cult Judge. appointed Judge Riner to hold
Judge Fosters court during the latters
disability. The first federal court held in
this district after the appointment was the
last March term held in this
city at which United States
Dirtrict Judge f. S. Dundy of Omaha also
presided, as the large number of cases on
the docket made division of the work
necessary. Among the important cases
tried before Judge Riner at that term were
the cases against Eddie Belden and E. +.
Lewis, both of whom were charged with
murder. At the time these cases were be-
ing heard, on account of the gravity OF the
offense charged against the defendants, the
severity of the punishment fixed by law
upon conviction. the prominence of the at
torneys prosecuting and defending and
the stubborn fight made by both sides,
they created widespread interest. Judge
Riner's decisions on the many motions
presented to him during the trials, as well
as his instructions to the jury, were very
generally commented upon. and it is say
ing no more than the truth TO add that
they were universally commended for the
knowledge of the law which they showed
him to possess and for their fairness and
impartiality.
Judge Riner is native of Pribble coun-
ty, Ohio, but has resided in Cheyenne dur
ing the past twelve years. He was city
attorney of Cheyenne for four years;
United States district attorney for Wyom-
ing for three years during President Ar
thurs administration and was twice cleo
ted. to represent the capital city in the
territorial senate which became the state
senate when Wyoming became state.
Daring his last term as senator he was
elected president of the senate and this BIZ
the unanimous vote of his associates, Demo
Gratis and Republicans alike joining in his
elevation to that position. As stated above
he was appointed United States district
Judge in September last, his being one of
the first appointments TO the Judiciary
made by President Harrison.
That Judge Riner has been and still is a
careful student of the law, that be has a
broad and comprehensive mind, the
strength of the opinions he has delivered
clearly shows.
The people of Wyoming are to be con-
graduated that their court is to be pre-
sided over by one so capable and desirous
ofevenly holding the scales OF justice as are
the people of our own. district that Judge
Fosters position during his sickness is so
ably filled.

GOES BACK A BOOMER.

Hon. Lewis Sperry, member of congress
from Connecticut, who was a member of
the party of eastern capitalists sent out
last week from Topeka to Western Kansas
under the guidance of Judge Horton,
which party was steered clear Of Wichita,
arrived in the city yesterday morning.
Mr.. Sperry who called with George Doug
las. Esq, expressed himself as delighted
with this section of the state. He thought
Wichita the brightest and busiest city he
had seen in the state of Kansas. and said
he wished that all the capitalists of New
England could see Wichita and the lower
Arkansas valley. He thought Western
Kansas beautiful country, but the lower
Arkansas valley as surprising in its evil
dent productiveness.
