MORE ABOUT EUREKA.
EUREKA SPRINGS, ARK, !
June 22d, 1881. I

June A-u, 1901
EDITOR RECORD: The business of my
sad mission here is finished. While rest.
ing, write you Eureka as | have seen it.
| arrived here on my second trip Mon.
day, the 10Th inst. l find the future me-
tropolis still booming. The town is fast
improving, and bids fair to become great
city. Those who have the best opportu-
nifty to know, say that the city contains
between $4,000 and 10000 inhabitants.
A considerable number are invalids and
health seekers, but the majority are bust
ness men and laborers and their families.
Many who come here for health are cured,
aud nearly all are benefited. A lecture
was given yesterday at the basin spring,
by man from Ohio, upon the water of
these springs. He claims to have discoy-
cred process by which the water can be
condensed to a very small volume-for
instance, reduce sixty gallons to half
pint, thus getting its medicinal properties
in very small space, and enabling the
patient to get more medicine and less
water; but as all who are informed on the
ubject agree upon the fact that the cures
effected by the water depend upon its pu-
rity, no credence will be given his hum
buggery. The chemical analysis shows
the water to be very nearly pure-the
purest yet known that runs out of the
earth.
As health resort, Eureka has no su-
perors, and probably no equals. The
purity OF the water and atmosphere, the
exercise which one is compelled to take
If he moves about, and the pleasant sur
roundings, make it very desirable place
in which to live. The people generally
are the most sociable, good, humorsd and
kind-hearted among whom it has ever
been my pleasant lot to be cast. The city
Is both novel and beautiful. The green
mountain sides, studded over with pretty
little white cottages, with here and thera
a pine waving in the soft breeze that ever
fans the mountain tops, makes picture
most beautiful.
There are schools and churches here,
both well attended. Every business seems
to be full. There are many dry goods
and grocery stores, blacksmith shops, &C.,
but no manufactures yet, except cane
factory. ...
Among the visitors here I SEQ several
persons from Sharp and independence
counties. Mr.. B. Hall, the skillful pho
tographer, we'll known in Sharp, is here
making stereoscopie views Of places of in
terest in and around Eureka. ...
The reports of contagious diseases being
prevalent here are false. There is not nor
has not been single case of smallpox,
measles, scarlet fever nor cholera here
this year.
Supposing that i have worried your
patience as much as you can well bear
or your readers can tolerate, | close, with
kindest wishes for the people of Sharp
till can again be among them.

MILL CREEK, ARK, July 9th, '81.

present. Corn is very scarce at the
mills, and we are not able to supply more
than one-third of the demand ,.alur
customers report the present crops Very
favorable in portions of the country, but
not SO good in other parts, on account OF
scarcity of rain. Cotton is said to be very
good generally. Some new wheat coming
into the mill, but not enough to give it a
fair test. That which we have had was
very light and chaffy, being damaged by
rust. A gentleman from the east part
of lizard county states that there has not
been rain enough to do the corn any good
in his neighborhood, and without rain
soon the crop will be short. l think the
cotton crop is some better than at this
