largely Of people from nearly every
State in the Union, and especially every
New England and middle State. These
people nave kept their eyes on that
gradually increasing list Of delegates
and alternates, and great many will
receive a cordial invitation 10 be guests
at private houses. And they'll miss it
if they don't accept.
For the countless thousands who will
flock into Minneapolis for an opportu-
nifty TO size up national convention and
TO witness the wonders of the twin
cities. the hundreds Of lesser hotels and
private boarding houses will open wide
their doors. Then, too, the fair city of
st. Paul sits upon its seven by nine hills
only half an hours ride from the conyen-
tiOn hall.
Thousands Of visitors will be well en-
tertained in the sanity city, where are
several spacious caravanSaries of the Al
order and an unlimited supply OF modest
but meritorious houses of smaller dimen-
Sions The two cities are practically
one. They are connected by half a
dozen railways and by electric, cable
and horse cars. One may journey from
the heart of one city to the very center
of the other in less than half an hour.
No national convention ever met in a
more imposing or capacious editice than
the Minneapolis exposition building. 1t
will accommodate from -, 900 TO 1000
people, aud its acoustic properties are
perfect. There is no doubt about your
being able TO hear the speeches If you
are fortunate enough to secure seat in
the gallery. The accompanying illus
tration gives a very good idea Of the
hall as viewed from the stage. Ample
accommodations have been provided for
the press, and the able pencil puSherS
may be relied upon to give prompt, ac-
curate and complete reports Of the pro-
ceedingS.
To the disappointed boomer whose
favOrite shall have been defeated in the
convention the beautiful environments
Of Minneapolis will offer sweet sOlace.
There is fair Minnehaha, made famous
in LlngfellOw'S romantic poem OF "Hia-
watha," only four miles away. 1t is
situated in the midst of beautiful park
which the State has reserved for sol
dier'S home. 1t may be reached by half
a dozen different routes. Only a mile
from Miuuehaha is Fort Smelling, an in
tereSting spot. II is the Oldest fort in
the northwest and one of the most pic
tureSQue in America. 1t is on high
blum al the junction of the Minnesota
and Mississippi rivers.
Only twenty minutes ride from Min
neapoliS lies MinnetOnka, the fairest,
freshest, most picturesque Of all inland
lakes. 1t has fine hotels, fine yachting,
fishing and hunting. White Bear lake
is near ST. Paul and will well repay
visit. J. II. MANNIX.

AN INFALLABLE INDEX.

There is no class Of people in the country
who can tell more accurately the condi-
ton of city than the insurance adjust
ers. One of these gentlemen was IN the
CITY last night and to reporter of the EA-
GLE he stated that Wichita had a
better fire record than any other city
of its size in the United States for 1891. A
few DAYS ago the adjuster of the \ orwich
Union Insurance company was IN the city
and to Pat Heyly he stated precisely the
srme thing that the gentleman stated 10
the EAGLE reporter last night. Both OF
them agreed to a dot, and both OF them
stated that Wichita had less fires dnring
1891 than any city of its size in the United
States And not only did they
state that but they also stat
ed that the fire department of
Wichita put out more fires successfully
during 1891 than any other department OF
similar size in the United States. proper
tionately, of course, to the fires which took
place. The insurance companies can tell
exactly how many fires takes place in
city every year for each fire department
chief makes a record of every fire reported
and the result OF it no matter how large or
small it may be. Fire insurance adjusters
are not so extremely innocent as TO con-
slider every fire an accident, for experience
teaches them that there are more fires in
dull town going into decay than there
are in lively town with an upward and
onward tendency. Hence they all have
an abiding faith in the claims OF the
friends of Wichita that she is the most
prosperous city OF her size in America,

NEW OFFICE BUILDING.
Work pom the Banalng Begun Yesterday.

Work was yesterday commenced on
excavating for the foundation of a new
building which will soon be erected At the
stock yards, just back of the exchange
building. This building IS TO be of good
dimensions and will be occupied as the
company's Office and the Citizens bank.
This move has been contemplated for
some time, as the rooms in the exchange
building now occupied as the company's
office have for some time been too small
for the transaction of business. As bust
ness has been steadily increasing for some
time, the directors OF the stock yards COM
pauy concluded to put up another build
ing, wherein spacious Office for the COM
pany would be prepared with ample room
10 transact the steadily increasing bust
ness The Office rooms now occupied as
the compaDy's office will, as soon as
vacated, be repapered. painted and fitted
up, and Will be occupied by the well known
commission firm, Eldridge Sc Campbell.
These gentlemen now have Offices in the
''Green House" block or two distant
from the yards, and this move viii be well
coined, as it gets all the commission firms
under the roof OF the exchange building.
The erection of this building. work on
which began yesterday, is another evidence
of the ever increasing business OF the
Wichita stock yards.
