New YORK, Aug. THE movement in goods
is of very good quantity, and through person
al selections, orders for duplicate assortments
and many deliveries on old engagements dis
tribution of much steadiness is preserved. The
demand is mostly to meet new wants, whereby
is shown that at many interior markets the job
bing trade is doing good business. Seasona-
BILE specialties and patterned goods of every kind
are doing well through many moderate takings,
but while a good aggregate of sales is reached
the market is not active.

Mr.. j. F. Merry, General Western
Passenger Agent of the Illinois Gen.
trail railroad, is making arrangements
to run a grand excursion to San
Francisco in the early part of the
coming winter. via New Orleans, the
Southern Pacific, San Antonio, Ell

The return trip can be made by the
same route, taking in Mardi Gras, or
by the northern route. Write to Mr..
Merry for particulars.
A grand excursion to Texas will
leave Memphis on the 28th and Goth
of August, via the Little Rock road.
Tickets will be good for thirty days,
and stop-over privileges allowed at
various places. Extremely low round
trip rates will be made, and this OPP
poltunity should be embraced by all
who wish to visit that country. ADJ

Fletcher, in the Jackson Wing, and
is now sole editor and proprietor of

lose Mr.. Fletcher from the newspa>

more money if not more glory, by
the change. Mr.. Brooks has had
long and successful experience in the
business, and we wish him continued
prosperity, which we believe he will
enjoy.

and grew rapidly worse each day, un.
til he was compelled to stop at the
above named town, where he receiv.

about forty years of age.

A Good Idea.

Trenton Globe: Would it not be
a good idea to connect Trenton and
Milan by means of the telephone? 1t
would cost but very small sum,
probably less than three hundred dol
lars. The amount can be raised by
subscription. We understand that
Milan is willing to contribute its part,
and Trenton should be willing to do
the same.

An exchange says: Garry the
news to the thick.headed and pro-
gressive Solons of the south that the
dog law in Indiana creates a fund out
of which losses of sheep killed by
dogs are regularly paid, and. besides
that, contributes 500, 000a year to
the school fund" We see that there
is growing feeling all over this state
in favor of dog law, and we would
not be surprised if the next legisla'
ture should enact one, if it is possible
to word it SO that it would hold wa
ter before the supreme court. We
need it badly.

with forty applicants, Prof. F. W.
Won Strantz has been chosen as Prof.
of French, German, Book. keeping
and Mathematics He is graduate
of Prussian College, and has taught
Is years in the University of Nash~
vile and in DR.. Wards Seminary.
Young men and ladies are now offer

Won Strantz is highly recommended
by the best authorities, and it has
been with no little difficulty that his

A lady from Nashville has been Sc
cured to teach the primary and some
of the preparatory branches. She is
a graduate of two of the best col.

She comes with the highest recon-

will be ready for distribution on Mon

be no music taught at the College.
A partition will be constructed in
the large hall, thus separating the
boys and girls. Boys and girls will
not be allowed to speak to each other
while at the college, or to associate
during the entire term. This rule
will be enforced absolutely and un.

And now we appeal to the citizens
of Milan, by the pride which every
man and woman should feel in the
success of home institution; by the
interest they feel in the general pros
perity of the town, and by the love
they bear their children, to rally to

make Milan famed for its cultured
