A Knife Argument.

HOPE, Kas., July 24-[Special Sat
urday evening quite an excitement was
created by scrap" between Charles
Shaeffer, this city, and cigar drum
mer, Jake Lewis.
The two named persons were settling
an old account when Lewis became in
sulting and angry. Shaeffer sharply
reprimanded Lewis, and he, Lewis,
started at Shaeffer with knife. Shaef-
fer managed to keep out Of Lewis
reach, but Lewis kept following and
striking with his knife until he had run
Shaeffer across the street. Lewis was
arrested and gave his bond for s10O to
await the trial. The trial was held
today and Lewis was fined 50 and
costs, which amounted to 1926.
The rains OF the past two days have
soaked this portion of the county to re-
ple.iOn. The prospect for corn could
not be better; indeed, it is considered
that that crop is safe beyond all posi-
bilitv Of failure for the largest yield
ever known.

RECENT REFLECTIONS.

ESThe rains of the past forty.
eight hours has extended all over the
state.
What is the matter with abb
lene being great salt center? 1t will
come to it one of these days.
Eg Just think how much the rain
of the past two days would have cost
the county if it had had to have been
paid for.
k1The bill boards for Sells Bros.
circus posters are being erected, the
largest one near the Union Pacific
depot.
@~Don't forget the matinee at the
driving park Friday afternoon,
which will be held at o'clock unless
the track should prove too heavy.
IL The heavy rains and winds that
have come during the past few days
emphasized the Oft-repeated advice to
thresh wheat Immediately after it is
cut.
re- The Baptist entertainment has
been postponed until next Tuesday
evening owing to the rain which has
prevented those taking part from prac-
ticing.
ES"SOme handsome stone steps will
be put in at the central school yard.
The stones are now being cut. The
yard has been made extremely attract
i've by the new terracing.
E% Everybody was smiling today,
though the clouds were heavy. The
glorious rain made sunshine in the
of the pOcketboOks and that is
the kind Of sunshine Kansans want.

a Large Salt Percantage.

The salt water from Abilene's well
sent to Solomon yesterday to be tested
proved to be exceedingly strongly i'm
pregnated with saline substance. 1t
tested so degrees, the same as the pres
ent salt well at Solomon which is one of
the best in the state. The old wells
at Solomon have only tested 80 degrees
and have for years been worked prof
itably. This proves that Abilene has
a bonanza if there is sufficient supply.
OF this there, seems to be no doubt.
Pumping will begin in day or two to
test the flow of the we'll and prove just
what can be done. i sample of the
water has been sent to Lawrence fol
analysis.

Changing Locations.

Several prominent business men
have been rustling around for a few
days making arrangements for some
new locations. This morning perma-
nent places of business were secured by
nearly all of them and the removals
will take placesat once.
A E. Bishop s. Co. will occupy the
three store rooms north of their pres
ent location, using nearly all of the
second floor as well as the first. Paul
& Jacobs were given the contract today
for taking out the partitions and throw
ing the three rooms into one. This
will make the largest establishment
ever seen in Abilene. a grocery de-
partment and perhaps other features
will be added, making it complete
mercantile store.
Simon ROthschild who is temper
arily in the Palace drug store room
will occupy Bishops present stand.
Toms 81 Rockefeller have leased the
room occupied 10y G. F. WOrley as a
harness store and will remove there.
Mr.. Worley will occupy new store
building to be erected for him on
Cedar st. north of the Brady block,
Suffer Brothers have leased one side
of Hargreaves' room and may be found
with their jewelry stock in that lOca-
ton.
J. B, Case advertises a clearing out
sale and it is reported that after a few
weeks he will merge his business with
Bishop & Co.
1t will take some time for people to
become accustomed to the new arrange
mentS.

Good Rains in Hayes.

HAYES TWP, July 23-[Special !
Everything is in prosperous cOndi-
ton in this burg. Our people are
cheered since the heavy rain Saturday
night, although 1t was accompanied by
a storm. The good of the rain fully
compensated for the damage done by
the storm in blowing over hay and
grain stacks. Last evening we were
again visited by another soaking rain,
which puts the ground in good condi-
ton for plOWing-and the ears Of corn
almost talk. Many of the farmers
have finished threshing and are glad to
know that the price of wheat is increas-
ing.
The milk wagons are loaded down
with milk every morning, bound for the
Enterprise creamery.

The Arizona sentinel., 1889-01-19

thrilled the observers with anxiety lest Her Grace be led astray by the example of her husband, whose 'fad" it was to mingle with the populace on exciting occasions, such as midnight fires and riots like that of Hyde Park, some twenty years ago. Ridiculous as it may seem to republican readers, the Duchess was severely criticised for her habit of walking forth alone from her somber mansion and calling a cab when in hurry, instead of letting half hour go to waste while the cumbersome vehicle appropriate to her station should be made ready. The entire precinct was once thrown into f1utter by the report, doubtless correct, that she had personally entered the little bakery in St. James street, in which a postal agency was established, and had there purchased stamps and affixed them to her letters, precisely as one of the untitled multitude might have done.
 In the winter of 1869 the sentinel who mounts guard over the palace wall of Cleveland Row had the op- portunity of relieving his dreary routine by saving child from being run over-a radical cab-horse from PalI Mall having so forgotten the pro- prieties as to break loose and endanger human life, as well as the drowsy tran quility of that solemn region. A day or two later the Duchess was seen to stop and speak to the guardsman, who was so overcome by agitation that he could hardly hold his rifle steady. H would have faced the cannon's mouth with less trepidatiOn than exchange ten words with the exalted peeress. The presumption was that Her Grace desired simply to say a kind word in commendation of the mans behavior; but the proceeding was regarded with any thing but approval by the resident spectators. The verdict of the austere middle class, throughout the neighbor- hood, was that the Duchess had been reprehensibly unmindful of the dignity of her position, and that she would have done better to send the soldier half a crown by her footman. For this and similar reasons she was not admired by the bourgeoisie of London. And yet there are people on both sides of the Atlantic who profess to wonder that the social sensibllities of Amer jeans and Englishmen can not at all points be brought into sympathetic and symmetrical accord. N J. Tribune.
