Bounteous Showers.

Dickinson county was Friday evening
favored with another magnificent, soak
ing warm rain which swept the county
from north to south, insuring prosper
ity and happiness to every farmer Of
Dickinson. Abilene and vicinity were
nicely flooded. The south part of the
county which needed the moisture
more, was given larger supply.
Considerable lightning and little
hail accompanied the storm. The
former struck the Presbyterian church
and damaged the roef and demoralized
the electric lights somewhat. The
barn of J. W. jerks was Struck but
not much harm done although it was
full of stock. at Enterprise, the Rock
Island water tank was visited and one
corner broken off.

The City Schools.

We have been permitted to examine
the report of the committee on schools
made to the city board Of education.
1t is voluminous document going in
to details in regard to the condition of
various rooms, studies, etc., of the city
school system. We, however, make
the following extracts which show the
general tenor of the report: "We be-
lieve we are safe in concluding that, as
a whole, our schools are In prosper
Gus condition. In all the
branches taught, with the exception
of writing, there is every indication
that thoroughness is intended and OBJ
tanned in a high degree, In
every department of our schools where
one of our high school graduates has
been in charge, order and decorum
have prevailed and we do not
hesitate to advise that such graduates
be given the preference when they are
applicants for positions in our schools. "

Another Despieable Deed.

Abilene has some mean people. We
hate to admit it but we are compelled
to. Last night some low-minded vii
liam entered the garden of Rev. John
Curtis on North Fourth street and stole
a large quantity of new potatoes. Not
content with carrying away what vege-
tables were accessible, the marauder
destroyed nearly all the vines of the re-
mainder.
There is pretty, 4AfoHg, suspicion as

startling developments may be looked

County Commissioners.

The board of county commissioners
yesterday inspected the Sutphen's
Mills bridge. They found the abut-

that something must be done with it.
They ordered the channel near the
bridge cleaned out and at the next
meeting they will decide what is to be
done.
This morning they visited the poor
farm and after thorough investigation
declared everything in good shape.
After returning to the county clerks
Office the board adjourned until the

important Decisions.

The State Supreme court made last
week two decisions Of considerable in
terest to our readers, One was the ap-
pealed case of the Dickinson county
commissioners vs.. NJ. Hogan. The case
grew out of damages due for right of
way through Hogan's land, and was
appealed by the commissioners from
the District court decision. The Su=
preme court affirmed the District courts
action. The other was criminal case
from Wallace county in which one Nc.
Mieken, who had committed murder,
was for some reason not tried in the
three terms of court Immediately sue
ceeding the crime. The Supreme court
ordered the prisoner discharged. Both
cases were notable victories for the
firm of Burton s. Moore which had
them in charge. Their successes be-
fore the state courts are making this
firm Justly famous.

There has been a general deficiency

oerature and sunshine have been about
