ONLY ONE KIND WORD.

Twas a little thing, only one kind word,
In the hurry and hustle Of every day,
But the heart was touched and the soul was
stirred,
And rainbow OF hope spanned the darkened
wayi
Twas q world-worn man with q weight OF woe,
Who was cropping along, in the crowded street,
When he heard voice that was soft and low;
And a word that was warm, and passing
sweet!
And the sluggish life in his veins moved fast,
And the light in his eye YVES TIE olden light
Twas the one kind word, he had met and
passed
Twas the blue in the sky, where the stars
shine bright
Twas a SHINING girl, with reckless air.
Who was one Of throng on sunny day,
And her painted cheek and her stony stare
Were the signs of a soul on its downward
way!
But greeting came, and kindly word,
With message Of grace to the erring one,
And the centered depths Of her nature stirred,
Till she turned from the wrong, and the good
was wonl

FIRST FRUITS.
A. Leading Loan Company Orders a
Halt.

Some time ago the REFLECTOR
warned the people Of Dickinson county
what would happen if the legislative
department of the Kansas state gov
eminent was entrusted to impractical
aud wild nOtioned cranks with prepos-
terons ideas, or rather lack of ideas, on
matters of financial management es-
pecially as regards loans, mortgages
and security for investors. We
warned the people that the integrity Of
Kansas was at stake and no chances
should be taken.
The political cyclone which has
landed in the house of representatives
a majority of the class of men of whom
we spoke above has been quick to have
it's effect. Already the eastern loan
companies have recognized the danger
of insecurity if the crank element
should gain control and we are inform
ed that the Travellers Insurance COM
pany and other loan companies have
telegraphed their agents here to make
no more loans at present owing to the
threatening outlook for the legislature
of the state.
The first fruits are not encouraging.
What will the full harvest De? The
chances are that with complete peO-
pies party victory, interest rates in
Kansas would be- doubled.

George Livingston is more than

The only way to take it is philo-
sophically.
MIR. J. II. Niesley resumes his
work as principal of the central school
of the city. He made good fight but

port" But excuses will be accepted.
The News is pretty well ratified this
week.
Ben Peck is still on deck as genial
as ever. He is prepared to issue licen-
ses and perform marriage ceremonies
at the old stand with all the fancy side
dishes until January.
AN election always tests the char.

The result of the last teachers ex-
animation was the issuing of 81 certi6

There were q applicants.
The following society item is from

The funeral services will be held at 10

We have at the REFLECTOR Office
a few copies of the Mckinley bill as
recently published in this paper. As
the bill will remain in force probably
fifteen years to come it will be of IN
terest to consult and become familiar
with it. The copies are for free dis
tributiOn and can be had by calling for
them.
Taxes in Kansas become a lien on
first day of November. If one half is
paid on or before December Goth, the
remainder can run until June 10th, fol-
lowing without penalty. If one half
is not paid by December Goth, pen
atty of per cent attaches to the whole
and all becomes due. If not paid by
March Goth, further penalty of per
cent is added. On the first day of Jnly
all unpaid tax is advertised and sold
on the first Tuesday in September fol-
lowing. The tax, cost of advertising,
penalties and sale then bear interest at
the rate of 2 per cent per month and
can be redeemed at any time within
three years from the date of sale.

DANGER TO WHEAT.
The Hessian Fly Reported to Be In
juring It.

juring It.
Prominent farmers in all sections of
the county report to the REFLECTOR
that injury is being done the early
sown wheat 10y the Hessian fly. In
south Dickinson they tell US that the
wheat fields sown in September begin
to look yellow and it is found on exam
ination that quite percentage is in
jured. North of the city prominent
farmer informs us that he has a large
field which is entirely ruined and will
have to be plowed up in the spring.
Others say that their early fields are
injured only slightly.
We hope that the damage may prove
less than is feared. The somewhat
dry fall added to-the fly may make con-
siderable difference in the acreage.
Still as more acres were put in than
ever before the prospect is that there
will be enough left to give the farmers
a big yield, especially as the later soWn
fields are in the most magnificent
shape. 1t is possible that the danger
is over estim:ted and that many of the
fields now thought hurt will come out
all right in the spring.
