On the road to Enterprise, just east of the court house, the foundations for seven handsome dwell ing houses are being laid, and in all parts of town there are signs of great activity. Towns may come and towns may go, but Abilene goes on forever. It is due to Mr. J.

R. Burton, the member of the house from Dick, nson county, to say that ho has made a il-liant record as an orator and a parliamentarian during the past session.

The firm will carry a gener al stock of merchandise -ury goous, Groceries, boots and shoes, queenswa.e, and will do business ou a square, honest basis.

The Reflector has been personally acquainted with Mr. Good for several years, and it takes pleasure in recommending him to the citizens of Hope and vicinity as a young man of excellent habits, of good business ability, upright and honest. The Juntas Churdman says: "In connection with the dedication of the Washington Monument we noticed a rather singular fact that nearly all who took part in conducting the exercises were Churclimen. Senator She man, Mr. Corcoran.

President Arthur. Senator Edmunds and Mr. Winthrop are all con nected, with the Episcopal church that church in which Washington himself was a worshipper. The chaplains on this occasion were from ihe two parishes in Virginia, of which Washington had been vestryman the Rev. Henderson Sutter, of Christ Church, Alexandria, and the Rev.

S. A. Wallis, of Pohick. The members of Co. were a li- tie bit exercsed last Tuesday over the receipt of the news that Gov.

Mayor McDivitt will be boomed for the office of Department Commander and will be a formidable candidate. I. S. HaHam, C. J.

McDivitt and E. J. Warner have purchased the lumber and coal business with its real estate attachme.it, of M. Nico'ay, and will continue business at tbe old siand under the firm name of the Fj- mers' Lumber Company. Mayor McDivitt has no interest in the coal business of the firm.

Mr. Ha'lam has recently moved to town and his friends of the country wl'l be gh'tl to learn that he hasentejed business. He wants them to come and see him now and buy a paitatleaLof their lumber and coal from his firm. Messrs. Warner and McDivitt are well known business men.

and require no introduction. The manv warm friends of Col. J. McClure in'this city and county wi'l be sorrv to leant that he is violently insane in Washington, wnither he had gone strongly indorsed for the United States Marshalship of Kansas. The Col.

became insane some years ago fiom some cause unknown to the Reflector, and the excitement at Washington is supposed to have been too much for him. Members of his family and friends have gone to Washington to look after him. At nresent he is under confine ment at Piovidence hospital. Col. Mc Clure is one of the oldest settlers or tne state, is known throughout the State as a man of good legal ability and strict integrity of character.

It is the earnest wish of the Reflector that he may speedily recover from this second attack of insanity. Elijah Bouebrake died Tuesday mottling of pneumonia, in the 78th year of his age. He was born in Westmoreland county, but moved to Stark Ohio, with his parents when quite young. Was married there when about 25 and moved to St. Joseph county, where he remained until 1871, when his wife died and he came to Abilene, returned and moved here permanently in the following year.

He was the father of eight children, all living but the oldest daughter. Three of them J. E. Bonebrake, the youngest child, Mrs. Dr.

Shook and Mrs. Merrifield live here. Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church Wednesday morning and the remains, accompanied by J. E. Bonebrake, were expressed to St.

Joseph county, where they will be laid beside those of his wife. Elijah Bonebrake was a christian gentleman and highly respected by those who knew him. His long race was worthily run and "after life's fitful fever he sleeps well." It looks to the Reflector as if Mr. Maiiax the counsel of the stockholders' association in its case against the Kansas Farmer's Mutual Insurance Company, were trying to evade and dodge the "issue. Now that the suit has been commenced it should be pushed rapidly.

The Reflector need not tell its farmer friends that the Insurance Company has rights in this matter that they should respect. he company, repres ented by its counsel, has insisted upon an mmediate trial, and has shown no disposition lo cover up or holdback anything. When the case was called, Maiiax was ordered by the Judge to get his case in order and was given three weeks in which to accomplish his work. At the end of three weeks he asked for a continuance on the plea that he wanted to go to Salina to try a case. This is not right.

The company is enjoined from doing business until the suit is decided, and ihe case should be decided as soon as possible upon this account. Besides, the people of the county, as well as the stockholders of the company, are anxious to see this matter satisfactorily settled. If fraud on the part of the company can be proved as charged, then it should be closed up. But if on the other hand, the company can show, as it maintains it can, (and its eagerness for trial would seem to indicate that it can.) vouchers and cash entries for all moneys expended during the three years of its existence, with the exception of $52. unac counted for, tne that fact should become favorably kiiown through the official declaration of Judge Nicholson.

The officers of the company are'easily confident that no case can he made against them, and these dilatory tactics of Mr. Mahan do not carry with them any strong conviction that he can prove what is charged against the company. When the case is called on April Slh the Reflector trusts that it will be pushed to completion. The policy holders' association which has employed Mr. Mahan should insist on this point.

The association owes it to itself, to the people, and to the insurance company to do this. The trial should throw much light upon the case, and the Judge's decision should settle it. Resolutions of Eespect. Headquarters Abilene Post. Xo.

A rough, loud voice, and a rasping laugh, half a snort, which may be heard several blocks from its source, always proclaim when Tommy Wilson returns to town from his numerous trips to the country, where he goes to sell trees to farmers at rates wholly favorable to himself. "His Xobs" bobs and robs and the farmer, if he doesn't sob, swears and treats unsavory Tom something after Julius Waterstradt's manner. It will be remembered that when Jtulius got through with Tommy, the latter went about with a placard on his soiled shirt front which read "kicked by a But this is a digression. Ohio has given birth to a large number of great men, but this particular Buckeye, Tommy, is not one of them. He may recognize this fact.

Our "barb wire" man isn't proud. His coarse features never look clean; his clothes do not fit him and they are never tidy; his boots are never polished and his whole appearance is uncouth and disagreeable. He has never been known to stand on the streets and admire his loose-jointed frame. Instead of that he hunts up the "toughs" of town, unwinds his laugh and feels at home. He avoids respectable society and is a stranger lo it.

His mind is narrow, bitter, vindictive, sluggish and brutal. He has no inspiration higher than a glass of beer and a "jack-pot;" no ambition to be a gentleman, and is therefore a rowdy. He is a journalistic tumble-bug, a nonsensical nonenity, a loud, lean, huugry fool. And we are not angry with you Tommy, because you are a fool, without any knowledge of courtesy and refinement. We pity your superficial and dishonest nature.
