County Assessor F. j. Murphy mas

commissioners his appointees to the
office of deputy county assessor lor

assessor may appoint the deputies

AS MIR. Murphy has been reelected
to succeed himself there will be 40

1910 has been All active and pro-
gressive, and withal prosperous
year in Abilene. Not since boom
days has any like period witnessed
such a decided advance, or so many
improvements, both in public and
in private property. The movement
has been general. No class of citi-
zens has been exempt from the en-
thuslasm for bigger and better things
which, as 1t would seem, has per-
meated the very atmosphere. Not
that there have been no disappoint-
ments or occasions for regret, but the
regrettable incidents have only ser
we'd to set out in stronger relief the
tangilVs evidences of progressive
achievement.

Many Public Improvements.

Among public improvements the
paving of the entire downtown Sec
tion of the city with the best mater
ials obtainable, and according to
the specifications of careful engi-
neers, stands as the pre-emipent ac-
compllshment. Thus, by the simple
determination to go ahead and get
things done, the city has brought to
pass that which has been the subject
of hopeful but seemingly futile dis
cussion for years, and has put itseli
forever out Of the class of the dirt
street towns" The paving VIII
represent, when completed, an in
yestment OF between $4,000 anc
10000.

The Record of Crimes.
This phase of Abilene's life has,
it is true, loomed far too large dur
ing the past year. But what has
occurred has reflected discredit only
on those directly concerned. The
crimes and casualties of the year
1910 in Abilene have been such as
gnt occur, and do occur, anywhere
They were in no way traceable to
defects in the moral standards OF
practice of the citizens as a whole
On the morning Of Sunday, Aug.
IA. the town was shocked and sad
dened by the news that one OF its
sweetest and most popular girls had
been found dead, under circum-
stances tragic in the extreme. Inc
day following was to have been
BETA" Benignus' wedding day. Al
ter many sessions, the coroner's jury
,moned in the case brought In a
verdict of murder at the hands OF
parties unknown. The real cause
Of Miss Benignus' death is mystery
which will probably always be sealed
with her in the tomb. The real
facts connected with her death have
never been made public.

Many large undertakings were
carried to a successful conclusion by
Abilene churches Just at the close
of the year, that the chronicler finds
but few improvements OF a purely
material sort to record in their favor
for 1910. But II this is the case
the reason is that such improvements
were not needed. The Abilene
churches are all comfortably and
many Of them commodiously housed
and their achievements during the
wear have been along the lines OF
spiritual and administrative work
which is as II should be.

Some Large Fires.

On the morning of October So'n
Abilene suffered from $4,000 nre
in which the Prendergast garage
with adjoining storerooms, was de-
stroyed. Although less than hall
of the value of the property was
covered by insurance, plans for re-
building we're taken up at once ana
part of this work has already been
accomplished. The business OF the
various firms affected by the fiFe
was continued with hardly an inter-
ruption.
Another disastrous fire occurred
ON the morning OF Nov. II, when
the fine home of j. s .Eng'e on North
Buckeye, one OF the most substantial
in the city, burned to the groNnd'
The cause, is supposed to have been
some defect in the flues or the wiz
ing. No one was injured. The loss
was about $4,000 of which the great
er part was covered by insurance.
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1911-01-05

The one event which Abilene must
count as a dead loss is the final. de-
cision Of c. W. Parker to move his
factory to Leavenworth. Mr.. Parker
gave employment to large n Imher
of men who spent their money IN
Abilene. II is generally felt that no
would htve remalae1 u he had raet
with falrer and more tactful deal nS
