Miss Laura Dainty appeared before
an Abilene audience for the first time
last Saturday evening. and the impress
sion she made upon it was decidedly
favorable. Her Evolutionary training
has given to her voice great elasticity
and power, and to her features large
variety Of expression. To these adj
vantages she adds a charming, vivaciOus
manner and an intelligent conception
of the work she may have in hand. As
the leading character in "a Mountain
Pink" an interesting and not untruth-
full, but a rather disjointed narrative
Of life among the mOonshiners in the
mountains of Western North Carolina.
she appeared to good advantage and
won her way almost instantly into the
hearts of her listeners. In fact as well
as in name, she is DAINTY little woman
and a bright, pleasing actress. She
viii be heartily welcomed should she
again come to Abilene.

Hon 7. C. Henry, of Denver, is in
the city this week. On Monday after
noon, in Cases hall, Mr.. Henry adj
dressed a goOdly number of farmers on
the advantages of farming by irrigation
in Colorado. Represented the question
in an easy. conversational manner, but
the REFLECTOR is Of the opinion that
Dickinson county will not contribute
very largely to the building up of the
particular section of which Mr. Henry
spoke. Dickinson county, the richest
i'll the world, has not yet reached the
acme of her development. Her posi-
bilitieS are yet immense, and she con-
tinues to offer great opportunities to
the intelligent and thrifty farmer and
stOckman. But to people less favOra-
bly, situated than are our people, the
South Platte valley, Col, no doubt Of

CANON FARKAR

Archdescon FARRAR, who is soon 10 lee.
ture in the United States, will no doubt re-
ceive one Of the heartiest welcomes any En-
ghshmsn ever received in this country. His
reputation as sn author has gone out every
where, and his works are read in every land
where the English language is spoken. He
has been prominent rs an author for many
years, and his writings cover great variety
of subjects. Among the works he has
written are, Origin of Language" "Fami-
hes of Speech" Seekers ate: God, "Toe
Witness Of History to Chris" The Silence
and Voices Of God, and Life Of Christ"
No man Of to-day has done 80 much.
10 bring the Bible home to the
people. He las been q large
contributor to leading periodicals.
Several instructive stories have come from
bis pen, among which are Eric" Julain
Home" and St. Wlnifreds." His lectures
and sermons sre much praised. An ennob.
ling influence runs through all his writing
ard speaking, and, an effort is made to get
down into the questions OF real life and
solve the problems that the people have to
deal with. though other Engishuen may
s1rpsss him in many respects yet he
holds an almost unique place in
the affairs of England, exercising
wide influence over Church and State. He
occupies q relation to English thought siu-
liar to those thhs have been occupied by
DEAS STANLEY and MAURICE KINGSLEY.
All these things will cause him to be re-
ceived in America as one Of Englsud's
best men. His eulogy pronounced in West
minister Abbey OF General GRANT, has been
much admired in this country as
expressive Of kindly feeling toward
our people and as fitting tribute to Amer
lean manhood and American institutions.
The people will eel confident that he will
duly appreciate every courtesy shown him,
and will not, as some other lecturers have
done in the past, after receiving the kindest
hospitshties Of the people, return home and
subject them to ridcu!e.
