Simon ROthschild has returned from
the east with an unusually fine line o
fall and winter clothing. The demo

did when he came home was to bet tina

He is under the Skillful treatment of
DR.. Austin.
Mr.. George Gleissner. after several
years of absence in New Mexico. re-
turned to Abilene last week. and will
make this city his future home. George
is bronZed and rugged looking. and his
stay i'll the southwest has been of much
benefit to him. His many friends were
glad to welcome him back. and are
pleased at the prospect of having him

News has been received of the deatlo
Mr.. Donald Mckay postmaster at Rose

of this city. were present at
the marriage of their friend. Miss Jen-
ME Welsh. to f. y. RoSSiter, which
event took place at Ellsworth Tuesday

ERA house last Saturday evening will vote for
Blaine, Logan and John \. Martin.-GaZctte.
That is mighty safe bet for the
brave ''hoO-dOO' of the second story
sheet to make. How will you manage
to poll the votes, brave and truthful
'hOO-dOO''? If you can poll them,
we'll see you and go you $40. bet
ter. Or maybe you'd like to make that
kind of bet on the result of the cleo
ton for Governor?
The B. j. society of young ladies di-
vided itself politically last Monday
evening and formed a Cleveland and
Hendricks club and a Blaine and Lo-
gan club. The b. b. society is COM
posed of very charming and intelligent
young ladies and it is lamentable fact
hat twenty Of them should belong to
.he Blaine and Logan club and only ten
to the Cleveland and Hendricks club.
A democrat has one great consolation,
however. They can't vote.
Over and over again Gov. Click spoke of repub-
leans as "prohibitionsts for revenue only Evil
lently he thought that very funny. But is ii any
worse to be ''prohibitiOnist for revenue only"

If our highly esteemed contemporary
doesn't look ''leetle Oud'' he will adj
nit by inference the truth of Governor
Clicks statement. Does Bro. Hart, in
he foregoing, mean to convey the i'm
that he advocates prohibition
solely because he thinks it the winning

The REFLECTOR force has been eX-
,eedingly fortunate this week. Charlie
rhraSher has opened an oyster saloon
III Spruce street. and has furnished it
n a very neat and attractive manner.
On Monday, he invited the REFLECTOR

ruth. Charley knows how to cook OyS-
ers in any way, and his place will be-
