Abilene and Enterprise Gave Them
Generous Reception.

The 200 delegates to the National
Creamery association, who are max

receptions in Abilene and Enterprise
Friday. They certainly received a
good impression Of Dickinson county's
Importance as creamery center.
The train arrived at Enterprise over
the Rock Island at 5:l5 and remained
about 20 minutes. The visitors went

reached Abilene. The Abilene band
generously turned out to help receive
the guests properly. Eight pretty
young ladies had badges reading,
"Abilene, Dickinson County, Kansas,
Land of Rows, Kreameries and Korn."
Each visitor received one. Each
guest also received copy Of the
REFLECTOR Of last evening giving the
story Of Dickinson county's greatness.
Rev. DR.. Blayney had the hardest
job of his life making speech to the
crowd on the depot platform. When
he described the glories of the Smoky
Hill the visitors had an irresistible
desire to yell, What's the matter
with Abilene9 She's all right" But
it was soon over and the crowd

woRKMEH's NEW RULE.
Classified Assessments Adopted by the
Grand Lodge.

After long discussion the grand
lodge A, o. U. W. at Wichita this
week adopted the classified assessment
plan for the orderin Kansas. Hereto
fore the assessments have been 81
each to all members regardless Of age.
The result was that young members
were paying more than their share,
compared with old members and it
has been difficult to compete with or
ders whose assessments are based on
age. The grand lodge vote on the
change was: For, AS; against, 27O;
necessary to choice 4453.
The rates provided by the classified
assessment plan are about as follows.
1t is estimated tina. eight assessments
at this rate would raise as much
money as did the seventeen assess
ments levied last yea. on the "level"

for her. 1t seemed to develop into

home, and to the surprise Of all she
began to get better from the first
dose, and half dozen dollar bottles
cured her sound and well. DR.. Kings

DEVOTED TO GOD.
Pains Taken to Make Yesterday a
Consecrated Day.

Yesterday was day devoted to God
by the union meeting workers.
Prayer meetings we're held at set
points in the city at 9;45 a. nj. and a
union prayer meeting at the hall at
10 a. m. Evangelist Thomson
preached at II a. m. from John 1871,
Gail nature must obey God" Man
should be no exception. Sin is law
lessness. Sin gives self to self-not
self to God. A surrender to God does
not imply perfection. We should
make no compromise. Christ's word
must abide in US, not here and there
as gypsy, but remain fixed
About 200 were present at the after
noon services and such earnest
prayers perhaps never went up from
Abilene. The leader spoke on the in
dwelling of the Holy Spirit. Mr..
Thomson spoke upon Jacobs wres-
Ting with the angel recorded in Cen
esis. Jacob relied on his own powers
too much. 1t is not the time we
spend on the mountain peaks Of VIC
tory but the height we reach that
counts. As Jacobs thigh was broken
so some never lean on God till Grip
pied in self reliance. Do not covet
Gods gifts but God. Then Mr.. Gam
BILE sang that beautifully appropriate
song where He Leads Will Follow"
At night a crowded house greeted
Mr.. Thomson. Rom. 5:lS was taken
as his text. He showed that God is
not cruel. The criminal always
abuses the government that meets
out justice to him. Governments
seek the lawless to punish-God seeks
them to save them. Men underrate
sins against God but exalt sins against
their fellowman, but as God is greater
than man so sin against him is greater.
The unconverted seek vengeance, not
so of the true Christian. Stephen
asked God to forgive even his MUIR
derers. VIE speaker then gave a
beautiful concept of God calling a
council of the heavenly hosts seeking
to save this lost world.
Usual services tonight. The meet
ings have reached such tide that an
other evangelist has been sent for and
two meetings will be held. 1t even
appears that three nay be needed to
accommodate all who are interested.

with liquor selling. They were
brought to town and lodged in jail.
Today they appeared in court and
their attorney, 5. 5. Smith, exploded
torpedo under the keel Of County
Attorney Kane's case by moving to
quash the indictment on the ground
that the information drawn up by Mr..
Kane was faulty. 1t says that the
facts set forth are true "to the best Of
the compliments knowledge and be-
lief" The supreme court has ruled
dozen times that no warrant can be
issued on such complaint. The
complainant must swear to positive
knowledge. The prisoners were dis
missed, the county pays the freight.
1t is rather expensive to educate the
Populst county officials.
The colored gent went west through
town at 2:4O gait, touching only the
high places and expected to reach
Saline county in an hour.
