Mr., Chas. O. Paticr has gone to St.
LOUIS to see the Yelled Prophets, and will
probably return this evening.
DIR. Frank Mctcalf, who has made his
home in Pulaski precinct, was in the city
yesterday. We are pleased to learn that he
is enjoying an extensive practice.
Glen Young, colored man, was yes
terday arrested on warrant charging him
with abusing his wife. He took change
of venue from Squire Osborn to Squire
Comings, and was fined five dollars and
the usual trimmings,
Shortly after the arrival of Mr.. Henry
c. Laughlin and BRIDE at their home IN
Lebanon, a complimentary party was ten
dered them by the friends of the groom,
which outshone anything Of similar kind
given in that city for some time,
The Argus is misinformed. No excur
sion will leave this city for Evansville next
Saturday The Cairo & Vincennes railroad
company offered to furnish a train of four
coaches and one baggage car for five hun
bred dollars, which offer was not accepted.
Tomorrow "Gov." Streeter and Hon.
j. P. STEELE, are expected to arrive in this
city. In the evening they will discourse
learnedly on the greenback question, and
prove that COW is horse, and that the
almighty dollar, unless it lisa "greenback,'
is very weak affair.
When the white Republicans Of this
city are asked for an explanation of 1929
by their colored friends, they tell them that
it is a patent medicine advertisement.
And when they continue to ask for more
light, they obstinately continue to make
light of their demands.
Mr.. P. Brown and Miss D. Cook,
were married by Father O'Hara on Mon
day. In the evening party of young folks
met in the Celia building in their honor,
and danced the happy hours away to
celestial strains A large, handsome cake
was voted to the most graceful Walter,
who proved to be Miss Nellie Stack.
Mr.. Nathan Newman, the young man
who was suspected of crookedness by
Messrs. Patier & Co., and who last week was
held in bond of two 5000 for his appear
ance at the next term of the circuit court,
has been released from jail on giving the
necessary bond Messrs. George koehler,
George Steers, F. NJ. Ward and j. Burger |
are his bondsmen.
The News in its attempt to shield |
Mr.. Nellis says that "there are other streets |
IN the city that need improvement as much |
as Eighth street." This, of course, is no |
excuse for Mr.. Nellis' non.fulfllment Of
his contract, but will be news to every soul
in Cairo. since no other street is in such de-
plorable condition and none other is used
as much as that very street.
Amanda Scott and Helen White, two
black danes, who grace or, more properly,
disgrace the upper portion of town with
their presence, we're yesterday arrested for
conduct unbecoming ladies and very OBJ
jectionable to the neighborhood in which
they reside. They were taken before
Squire Osborn for trial, but took a change
of venue to Squire Comings, who fined one
of the offenders and acquitted the other.
The News charges Messrs. Walton
Wright and William Cundiif with per-
petrating the 1920" joke, and we took it
upon ourself to interview both these gen
tlemen, yesterday, who positively deny any
connection with the affair. We are not dis |
posed TO doubt the veracity of either the
News or Messrs. Wright and Cundiff, but,
believing that the latter gentlemen are IN a
better position to know whether or not
they are guilty than the News is, we feel
compelled to believe them and must ask |
the News to guess nearer home.
