Rai1road Meeting.

An enthusiastic railroad meeting was held last night at L4uker & Davis hall. Capt. Jno. R. H. Scott was chosen chairman and J. F. Munday, secretary. The maih feature of the meeting was the address of Gen. Jno. H. Rice, oi Fort Scott, who is president of the New Orleans, Matches and Fort Scott railroad, the line which is proposed te DC built from Fort Scott, Kansas, to Matches, Miss, and is going to be To- eated somewhere through this county.
 Gen. Rice spoke of four routes in viow in locating the road. One from the north horn line of Carroll county down by Clarksville and Ola, to Hot Springs. Another one from Berryville, Madison
 county, through Newton and Pope counties. crossing the Arkansas river near the mouth Of Piney. around the foot of Mt. Nebo to Ola and Hot Springs. And still another one, crossing the river somewhere below Dardanelle. and crossing oyer to the Saline valley, anl thence down by Monticello, in Drew county, to Hamburg. But anoth-
 CT, and thought to be the most practi- cable route was the ono to enter the state at the north west corner Of Boone on the Missouri line, thence running south through Newton and Pope coun- ties, down by Dover, Russellvil;e and Dardanelle, aud out by Ola and on to Hot Springs. To any one acquainted with the typography of the country and the agricultural, mineral and "tim- Der resources contiguous to this route, it's eligibility over all others proposed, is seen at glance. The greet advant- ages of this line of road were graphic ally set forth by Gen. Rice, and made a
 deep impression on those who heard him, and our people will at once set about steps to procure the location of
 this road on the last named route. Gen.
 Rice was emphatic in the declaration
 that the road would be built, and that
 inside of three years. To show the im-
 portance of this road, Gen. Rice men, tioned the fact that it was the only lon-
 gitudinai route west of the Mississippi,
 and will cross 34 roads now in active
 operation. Gen. Rice was very candid,
 straight forward and business like in
 all his propositions. He emphasized
 one thing especially, that as business
 man he was among US on a business en-
 terprise, and was seeking to serve the
 interests of his road in whatsoever
 might be of value to 1t in Il favorable
 location, right of way franchises, dona-
 tions, etc. We hope our people will
 be thoroughly aroused to the impor-
 tance of prompt and liberal action to- wards this enterprise.

Don't Experiment,

You cannot afford to waste time in experimenting when your lungs alc in danger. Consumption always seems at first, only cold. Do not permit any dealer to impose upon you with some cheap imitation of Dr. King's New Discovery for Con- sumption, Coughs and Colds, but be sure you get the genuine. Because he can make more profit he may tell you he has something just as good, or just the same. Don't be deceived, but insist upon getting Dr. Kings New Discovery, which is guaranteed to give relief in all Throat, Lung and Chest affections. Trial bottles free at J. w.

Thanksgiving services on last Thursday by appointment were held at the Presbyterian church with Rev. IL. B. Miner, presiding. The services were arranged upon the idea Of n popular service participated in by various parties, and in consequence, instead of a sermon, as has been cus- tomary here, we had short, pointed ad- dresses, all well conceived and htly spoken by Dr. G. W. Harkey, Prof. w. e. smith and MT. K. B. Wilson and the presiding officer. The services being approprfately opened with prayer, and closed with the benediction. This idea of celebrating thanksgiving occurs to us to be the correct one, and the scrv- ice Thursday was pleasant and pront- able in the highest degree.
