 "A Sunday school in connection with the Church of the Disciples, in this city, was organized last Sunday under the most fattering auspices. About fifty names were enrolled. The following officers were elected: Josiah Shiun, superintendent; T. c. York, assistant superintendent; Robert Harkey, secretary; Miss Alice Harkey, treasurer. We wish this new nursery of the church tke most abundant sue cess.
 The street workers of Russsllville assembled last Monday to go on duty in compliance with warning previously gwen, but as there was a general disin- cliastion to work the city authorities decided 10 accept $l.00 from such as preferred to pay, rather than wield"de shovel an de hoe." By this arrange ment quite revenue was collected, which will enable the street commis- sioner to employ lsborers and do effi- cient work on the streets.
 If you will call at ". F. Wooten's you will see the best stock of groceries i'm town, and remember he will not be undersold.
