Almost a Fire.

Last Friday night Mr.. Purcell, the
owner of the building known as the
Bank, Occupied by Mr.. L. D. Allen,
Jr., and the Tax Collector) was awak-
ened from his slumbers in rear room
by the smell of smoke. Rushing down
stairs and opening the Bank he dis
covered the room full of smoke, but
was unable to perceive whence it
came. He then ran up stairs and
broke open the Tax Collectors Office,
but there was nothing there to indicate
anything like fire. Going down stairs
again and looking around more care
fully he discovered that the smoke was
Issuing from spittoon which was
filled with sawdust, and into which
some one had thrown lighted cigar
which had ignited the sawdust. A
small hole about two inches square
was burned in the floor. But for the
timely arrival of Mr.. Purcell there
OfGtt have been large confiagration.

More Twins.

Ouachita's popular Clerk of the
Court, Mr.. Austin Green, was pre-
sented by his better-half, last Saturday
morning, with twins-a boy and a
girl. This is another claim Green has
on the people.
And it occurs to us to remark just
here that Monroe is rather ahead of
any civilized town we know of in
births. Three pairs of twins, and all
at the breast, is not a bad showing for
the next census. And suppose we do
have an Exodus?

Cotton Sales in Monroe.

We have not pretended to give each
week, or at the close of the season, the
total number of bales of cotton pur-
chased at this point, but only the num-
Der weighed by the City Weigher. A
large amount is purchased on New Or
leans weights-some going by rail and
some by river, which is never brought
to Monroe. Our Board of Trade is en-
gagged in collecting statistics on this
score, and we hope to have their re-
port in a short time.
The City Weigher reports Ais bales
cotton weighed for the week ending at
noon yesterday, making 1915 bales
weighed up to date.

"What's the river doing?'' has been
more than once asked of this much
prosecuted reporter during the past
week. The river, kind readers and
friendly sspersecutors," is playing the
wild with steamboat interests, and is
trying to turn bottom upwards-that
is, it's endeavoring to find out of which
it is mostly constituted, whether sand
or water. Sand, it appears, is ahead

the Ouachita on its proper steamboat
footing, as it is now lower than we
ever remember having seen it-and
we've had no small amount of expert

The Little Bob turned back at Log
town, evidently to tighten off the Will
son, which boat, as we stated last week,
was stuck at the mouth of Old river.
The Bob's freight is ON the opposite
side of the river about two miles this
side of Logtown.
