To the Progress : As we went to go in the west gallery of the House, we didn't go ;n. The nolite door keeper told us
that only in company with ladies null nn vent are there. Bat we

the little fly who used to bother Butler so much, was absent from his seat, owing to sickness. There is not good opportuity in the galleries of the House to see the distinguished figures on the floor. There is a much better chance in the Senate. I tried to study Randall, the deputy Republican or the Democrat whom the Republicans of Pennsylvania send to Con-
otmr with the larcest msiority of
any representative in the country, but he was too far away. I got a
food view of Reed of Maine, who,
they say, is the brainy mau of the
House, the leader on me nepnoiican side, and whom no roan can
surpan in a tut at arms. JHmcock and Reagan, the worthy Senators elect from N. Y. and Texas, I couldn't find. Carlisle, in the

vens bought in Jan. for $1,000 are now worth over $2,000. These prices are not fictions,they are facts. I am aware that mart of the people in Bloomington think some of ub are crasy, but if they were out here to see for themselves they would change their opinion. Bill Curtis is doing well and making money
has made more during the last year than he would have made in Bloomington in ten. Al. Hayes is also doing well; Lon. Davis is doing splendidly, also Wm. Milieu, and Henry Fellows they say has made about ten thousand dollars sines he came here. Shaffer lives about five miles from the city and his farm has doubled in value since he bought
it. Ail the Jttloomington boys mat
are here are doing splendidly. Now I mention these things to show vou that Wichita is not over-esti
mated as some think. Hotels,
boarding houses, and lunch rooms re crowded all the time, rents are very high. 8nch a room as yours
that Wilson occupies, will rent here
readily for $100 par month, and
such a house as your dwelling
would bring from forty to fifty per
month. I was in an omce yesterday
that occupies one window like our jewelry men at home ; his space was
ten feet wide and twenty lone ana
he pays $75 per month.
All these things I have written will perhaps not interest you but thinking maybe you have never had a fair description of this place I give it. As for for railroad facilities they come in all directions. The weather is very fine the streets and roads are as nice as we

will give you a few facts concerning Wichita.'

There is now building up and will be built, about three thousand houses this season. As for quality tliry cannot be surnassed by any eastern city. There
is no end to the fine business
blocks that are now being built, the most of which are four or five stories high. The Sells Bros, have opened a fine Opera House that would be a credit to any eastern city. Churches, colleges and hotels are being pushed forward rapidly. Jim Ben Allion could sell his real estate here and clear $25,000. Yon may think that amount big, but it is a fact. Dick.
