1t Is a sad sight to see an intoxicated
person on the street. How much more
so i. it to see dull and sickly baby
rendered so by the use OF dangerous
oplates: DR.. Bulls Baby Syrup contains
nothing injurious ana may be given to
the most delicate baby. Price % cents.
A rumor was current on the streets
| Yesterday and last night to the effect
that the Cairo and st. Louis narrow
gauge railroad company would to-day
undertake to run their track down Wash
lngton avenue. We do not know where
nor how the story originated, or what
foundation there is for it. We do not be-
lieve, however, that the company will I'M
dertake so dangerous task. The peo-
pie of Cairo are in no temper to stand
any such fOolishness on the part Of the
railroad company.
The party given by the ladies' OF the
Library Association at the st. Charles
! Hotel on Friday evening, was a very
pleasant affair. There was good Grove
present, but much larger one was eX
pected. The affair financially was not a'
successful as was thought it would be
the ladies barely cleared expenses. Thi.
is not as il should be. The cause FOL
which the party was given is one thai
every man and woman in Cairo SHOULD
feel an interest in, and support as be
comes their means. We hope the ladies
efforts hereafter will prove more fruitful
