Saturday night and Sunday noon
religious services we're held bv Rev
Mr.. Atwell, of Natchitocbes. The
Christian people were warmed up in
the cause. and compacted to keep o
day Of fasting and prayer on the
Friday before the second Sunday in
June. Crops are doing well and the
farmers are pleased with the pros
poets of rich harvest. Judge Ra-
gan showed us many samples OF his
skill in budding and grating fruit
trees, in which line be is an expert.
The Judge is also great lover OF
fine stock, fowls, etc, AID has some
excellent specimens of imported
varieties Mr. r. B. Williams is
driving ahead with his usual energy,
and-all around him can be seen eyi-
dences Of his thrift. The large busi0
ness of Mr. Watson goes along
smoothly and shows that there is
good management directing it. In
fact all the business firms are. doing
well and give evidence Of good sub
stantial backing from the surround
ing country. Mccain & Bro, having
the post Office in charge, seem to be
general headquarters. The Major is
looking well since his return from
law-making. and is posted ID all the
doings of the late Legislature. His
popularity with his associates in that
body is equal to the regard Of his
fellow citizens at home. With par
donable pride he showed us hand
somely engraved walking cane that
was presented to him by the clerks
of the Enrichment Committee as q
token Of their esteem. q
