Lexington society is peculiarly fortunate
In having In Its mldst q number OF r.nnine
and elsyating influences. Not the least Of
these is the musical talent in the place,
especially to be found 10 the three success
full and we'll conducted female seminarlss
which do so much for its advancement Few
towns anywhere, and mono that We know OF
its size. have 30 many real musical artists.
Among them none stand higher than Mrs.
Foote In vocal, and Miss Kramer in instru.
mental music. These ladies' have charge Of
their respective departments al the Mstho-
dist college. They are both thoroughly INT
highly educated in their specialties. gradu-
stes OF the best schools, and their work is
the best evidence that they know how to
impart what they have themselves mastered.
The community appreciates this, and there
fore takes an interest In every exhibition Of
the progress made by their scholars. It IL
not only that their concerts are q pleasure to
the senses, but there Is, beside, the grati1ca-
ton which cultivated people feel In know.
ing that they have in their community such
competent, energetic aad earnest Instruct
ors. That the usual winter concerts given
by the schools are fashionable, II We may be
permitted to use the word in its best sense,
Is due to thts fact, and 10 have no doubt
that II will prove to be 10 a. much this sea-
son as IN the past. This year it is Central
College which breaks the ice, on next Mon
day night. at the opera house. We feel salts
lied tn 1t the teachers at this popular school,
whom we have mentioned above, will not
come before their sadisnce without. being
able to show marked advancement on the
part Of their pupils. Every school in the
city is interested IN knowing that these
ladies' succeed. As they In their turn need
support and encouragement, so 10 1t their
duty to extend 1t to others. We hope, there.
fore, that Monday night next, will fud q
large and responsive audience at the opsrs
house, to do honor to the efforts OF those
who are spending their lives in teaching to
our daughters those accomplishments which
add 70 much to the pleasure and happinssl
of life.
We mentioned = few weeks ago renewed
effort that was being made to induce the
Western Union Telegraph Company to pro.
vide Lexington with better telegraphic IA
cli.ties by stretching . wire across the river
We learn that Mr.. Loomis, the manager
here, has received an unfavorabls reply from
Mr.. L.. G. Baker, the superintendent at st
Louis, on the ground Of tho difficulty o
maintaining such q wire because of sleet snc
other storms. As we are now situated oul
telegraphic business is In q very primltiy,
condition indeed, having to go by way Of
Sedalis to get anywhere northwest OF VI
As the tow is full OF pupils and others WHIT
have business north and north west there 1.
no telling how much t%slesraphing might be
done there II q message could again be made
to travel as fast as q letter. Even Waverly
is better supplied than are We, Us its tele.

do not know II Mr.. Looms has been a. Der.
sistent In bis Representations to the company
as be should have been, but we do knou
that our people think the existing state O.
affairs an outrage upon them. The objection
urged in regard to sleet and storms must be
dislngenuous. as the wire was maintained
here In spite OF these, and fell into the rive,
from sheer neglect to move 1t from a tree
which was for weeks threatened BY tn,
