Democrats Win Kansas CITY.

With the exception of four
members of the lower house,
the entire Democrat ticket was
elected in Kansas City Tuesday.
James A. Reed was elected
mayor by majority of 2,127.
1t was a big victory for Democ-
racy. The Kansas City Times
deserves much credit for the
victory. Kansas City has a
normal Republican majority of
1900 or 1900.
H. G. Scheetz, the owner of
the New Monroe hotel block, is
having J. o. Gilscn drill an
artesian we'll just back of the
hotel. A large tank will be
put in the top of che building
and when a sufficient supply of
pure water has been reached a
windmill will be erected to
pump water into the tank. From
the tank the water will be piped
to all the rooms in the hotel
and the business rooms under
it. This will be a great con-
veuience.

The Corcoran GALLERY q, Art

AT the recent quarterly meeting of the
Board of Trustees of the Corcoran Gallery
of Art it was decided to allow the use OF
the walls of the second floor hall or court
for the display of such paintings and draw
1ngs as cannot be accommodated In the
hemtcycle room on the occasion of the pro-
posed exhibition of local art, to be held on
or about the first Of May.
This affair is in the hands of committee
of accomplished and enthusiastic ladies.
and will doubtless be not only an interest
ing and instructive exposition of local
achievements in the field of art, but social
event Of more than ordinary attraotiveness
1t is understood that the exhibition will
open with full-dress evening card recep-
ton. with music etc
The matter of filling the vacancy occa-
stoned by the death of DR.. Barbarin, late
Curator of the Gallery, was disposed of bv
changing the title of that office from Gu
rator to Director, and electing Mr. Fred
erick B. Mcguire to the position Mr. Nc
Guire will continue to be a member of the
Board of Trustees, and it's Secretary as
we'll, and, by the closer connection with its
affairs thus established, he will be the bet
ter able to advance its interests-a sery-
ice for which he is, by reason of his init
mate knowledge Of and fondness for every
branch of art, most admirably qualified
The public and the Gallery are therefore
alike to be congratulated on the result thus
accomplished.
