Higginsville Post:-"Lexington is to have
new railroad depot, so Supt. Hager says.
THE old one is to be used for freight. We are
glad of this. The old shanty, dubbed a depot,
which is there now Is an eyesore." That's
20; and the new one will not be built a day
too soon.
Lexington is now in her most beautiful
dress. The green lawns, budding trees and
blossoms. and the atmosphere just the right
temperature, and laden with perfume, all
conspire to make life pleasant and instil feel
ings of gratitude and praise even in the
heart of a wooden Indian.

AsThe proof of the pudding is in the eating,"

We have Just completed the new addition
to Mr.. Jackson Bradley's residence. The
front hall has a fine circular stairway. All
the inside work is handsomely finished with
black walnut, v%ariegated with yellow pine.
The house has marbleized iron mantels, and
is finished in a very handsome style. We in
wife an inspection of this work from all those
wishing a frst-class job of building or finish
ing. We have some new styles of mantels,
which we will sell very cheap. Some are as
low as SIS. We do our own stair building.
The stair builders ask $160 for getting out
the kind that we build for $3.50. Our work
will bear inspection. Jno. E. Chentham &

Carrollton Journal. April 25:-"Work is
being pushed rapidly along on the new rail-
road. Rock and sand, two car loads a day,
are being dumped at Grand river to be used
In the building of the bridge. A barrel float
is being built which will be used In the
driving Of piles, aud other preparations sre
being made for the very early building of
said bridge. Grading is being extensively
done, new teams and men going on the road
every day. Along the entire survey, from
within a mile of Bogard Mound to Grand
river work Is progressing finely. Within
thirty days after the completion Of the bridge |
fhe cars will be running INTO Hale, and by |
shs middle of July Bogard Mound will re-
ceive the iron horse ana put on metropolitan
airs. No survey has yet been ordered from
BoSard Mound, and which direction the road
will take from place Is q mere conjecture.
In the meantime is Carrollton doing anything
toward securing the road Or does she
want it p
