Lamar, Colo, Democrat: A
large audience enjoyed the musical
and Evolutionary entertainment given
by the Misses Cooper, Of Las Animas,
at Golladay's hall last night. Miss
Florence Cooper rendered the piano
selections in an artistic manner, and
Misses Maud and Addie Cooper
showed a wide range Of talentin their
recitations. The young ladies made
a very pleasant impression on the
audience and reflected credit on the
school from which they have recently
graduated.
The Chronicle hits Abilene a
lick this way: "The town is full Of
harvest hands who are spending their
hard earned wages on big drunks.'
The marshal and police Judge say the
statement is absolutely false. There
have been no drunken harvest hands
in town. The harvest hands Of Dick
inson county are our home boys, they
don't get drunk and they are now toe
busy to come to town. 1t Is not good
manners to misrepresent and injurt
Abilene with such statements as the
above and our contemporary should
be above it.
