The committee of the city council,
appointed at the last meeting OF that
body to confer with the officers OF the
various railroads, more especially the
Cairo and Vincennes railroad, met the OF.
ficers fthat road yesterday to talk over
the proposition recently made by the
railroad people to purchase certain
portions of the railroad strip on which
they desire to build freight house and
depot. The matter was fully
but nothing definite was done.
1t Is believed, however, that the differ

railroad people are so wide that nothing
further will be done In the matter for
the present at least. -- vtF s..,-

Cairo can boast of three or tour of
as fine millinery establishments as any
city of her size In the State. u Indeed the
millinery trade forms a prominent feature
Of the trade Of the city, and the Onount
Of goods in this line sold in Cairo dur
ing the year is greater than many per-
sons are willing 10 believe. Among the
new establishments which deal exclu.
sively in the millinery line we may men
ton the new and enterprising firm Of
Miss s. II. Carson & Co., Commercial
avenue opposite Winters block. This
firm has just received large and COM
plete new stock, which they are ready to
exhibit to those wishing to purchase.
Their stock is all entirely new, fresh and
seasonable, and will be sold at the most
reasonable price. We bespeak for the
new firm o fair share OF patronage.
