Lovers of art in this city, professionals
and amateurs included, are offered an OPP
portunity or a chance to become the owner
of the copy of The Recluse,n by Rubens,
or the "Biblomaniac, of which we gave
an extended notice a few weeks since, and
which was exhibited in Mr. Martins win
dow and seen and admired by great
many people, over five hundred calling to
see it in a single day. The picture is back
in that window, and will remain there
until the two hundred chances at one dol
lar each are disposed of, everybody being
permitted to take as many chances as they
please. For particulars inquire at Mr.
Martins art store on Market street. This
copy of a masterpiece was taken in gallery
by Mrs. NJ f. Sherman in Darmstadt, Ger
many, under the instruction of an artist of
high standing in that old city. Five
months of faithful, conscientious work
was put in on the piece which is every line
in every color and in every detail is the
exact counterpart of the original In labor
alone it represents over five hundred dol
lars of expenditure But the picture has
got to be sold. Ii is a work Of art that
would adorn any private gallery, any
home or any hall or library. 1t represents

THAT BIG SIGH oF RELIEF.

The public schools started in for the fall
term, yesterday, relieving the byways,
alleys and vacant lots of the boisterous
presence of about 1000 untiring boys with
cheeks of tan and lusty lungs. The school
marms who so persistently insisted that
the schools must open, red flags or no red
flags, can now have it out with these reso-
nant roysterers and their more tractable
sisters. The sight of all the youth of this
city yesterday morning, rewashed and re-
habilitated, strolling in squads or rushing
along single in every possible direction for
the different ward school buildings, was
an inspiring one, and we imagined that
we could feel an underground swell pro-
duced by the deep combined sigh of relief
which simultaneously escaped the breasts
of several thousand mothers as the first
school bell rang out its summons yester-
day morning. About the portals of the
High school building clustered more de-
veloped youth and budding beauty, the
one pleasing in its promise, the other
tempting in its freshness. Hoping that
the EAGLES expressions of fear of con-
tagion will prove unfounded we bid the
public schools of Wichita a successful
term. to be followed by all the pleasures
Of the Christmas holidays.

FORTY THOUSAND, TWO cIRoUsEs AND
FAIR

From reliable information furnished the
EAGLE from the surrounding counties,
there will be an immense concourse of
people in Wichita to attend the Alliance
demonstration People men. women,
girls and boys-living within fifty miles,
who have never been in Wichita, and
many of them never in their own county
seats, will be here. The leaders of the
Alliance in these several counties give it
out that 10000 Alliance people are ex-
pected to be present to hear Polk and PEI
fer, Jerry and Weaver On Wednesday
Sells circus will be here. whose crowds
will swell the throng as it surges along.
1t will be a queer crowd, but immense.
One-half of it will be on hand only to
brood over the calamity declamations of
salaried howlers; the other half to
laugh over the jokes and jeers of a
clown who is paid to resolve all human
affairs into farce. So then there will be
two crowds, big crowds and they will be
unique crowds, in Wichita day after to-
morrow the like of which for numbers and
attractiveuess will never have been equall-
ed in all the past history Of the state. The
other circus will be on the Goth, the day
before the Great Southern Kansas Fair
which will be a political circus, an agri-
cultural show and exposition all COM
bined. In other words, Wichita will have
more people inside her gates within the
next two weeks than were ever congre-
gated in any city of the state within such
time

The surprise was complete, but the couple
bore themselves very well ard Mrs. +. was
able to respond to the presentation speech.
Much of the success Of the surprise Is due

WICHITA ALL RIGHT.

DR.. Martin, who has been travelling
much of late all over the west, says that
public sentiment touching Wichita has
undergone wonderful change within the
past few months. Where year ago peo-
pie expressed the opinion that Wichita
had got a black eye, from which it would
take years to recover, now the conviction
is that no city in the west came out of the
boom ordeal with really SO little actual
damage as did Wichita. This reaction of
sentiment is we'll founded and in the near
future Wichita will reap benefit from it.
The fact that Wichita is really the best
and most promising young city in the
west can not be kept out of sight.
