COTTON UP--GOODS DOWN!
The highest price paid for
cotton, and goods at forrest
price e0er seen. CaU and be
cOnginced. j. Il. SHINN.

Wooten & Oates do not use deception
to induce the public to patronize them
but sell goods on their merits, hence
their large trade.
-Messrs. Ed Bernard of Russellville
j. K. Perry of Dardanelle, A. r. Witt
and w. w. Marlin of Conway, and j
r. Davis of Little Rock are connected
| with a movement to connect Little
Rock with the towns along the Fort
Smith road by telephone. The line is
to run from Pine Bluff to Fit. Smith. At
Conway they propose to extend the
line to Pinnacle Springs and Green
briar, and from Morrillton to SPRING
field. With proper encouragement
connection could be made from Rus
sellville to Dover, Scottsville, Apple
ton and other interior points. We hope
to see the movement succeed.

The fall opening of Mrs. M. E.
Weathers' millinery establishment,
and exhibition of one of the most at
tractive and complete displays of hats,
bonnets and ladies' furnishing goods
ever brought to Russellville, took place
last Tuesday, and from the large num-
Der of ladies present and EXPLANATIONS
of delight heard on all sides, 1t was un-
doubtedly grand success. Those who
were not fortunate enough to be pres
ent on opening day should go as soon
as possible before the stock is broken.
The millinery parlor is presided over
by Mrs. Make Williams. the dollar
store by Mrs. Weathers and Mrs. Geor-
gia Brooks, and the new dress-making
department by Miss Sue Lawrence.
Everybody are bound to have shoes
so why not get them from Harkey b
Hess, where you can buy them as cheap
as any large wholesale buyer gets his.
Col, Jesse Harper, of Illinois, de-
livered two discourSes to small but APP
preciative audiences at the courthouse
last Thur sday afternoon and evening.
He dwelt principally upon the labor
problem and the encroachments of cap
ital upon the liberties of the people.
His remedy for all these evils is for the
government to control the railroads,
telegraph lines and the issuance Of
money to the people. A doctrine that
eminent is already too strong, and
clothed with too much power to op-
press and restrain at the option Of
of it. Mr.. Harper made no new con-
verts to his theory, although he said
some good things.
Don't forget that Harkey & Hess are
headquarters for bargains In boots and
shoes. They are selling their entire
stock at actual first cost to make room
for their immense wholesale harness
and saudlery department.
Last Thursday evening about 8
o'clock as DR.. Hill was returning in
his buggy to town from professional
visit to the country, when within q
half mile of the western suburbs, two
men came running rapidly through
the woods from the direction OF the
railroad and ordered him to halt in
regulation highwayman style. The
Doctor piled his whip manfully, swept
by the men without regard to ceremo-
ny and soon left them far behind. He
says he does not know who they were,
or whether their object was to scare
him or something more serious. If the
former he says they succeeded far be-
yond their most sanguine expectations.
for he never was so frightened in his
life, not excepting the trying period of
the war.
We have the largest and best stock
of saddles and harness to be seen any
where In the state, and which we are
selling very cheap. A visit to this de-
partment will convince you that we
speak truly. Harley q HESS.
One of the most remarkable es-
capes from injury we remember ever
to have chronicled happened last Sat
urday night. DR.. Hill drove out IN
the country to see patient, and as he
was returning home about 0 o'clock
while driving near the railroad, a
freight train came In sight and the
headlight of the locomotive frightened
his horse, causing him to become IN
manageable, and running away turned
the buggy oyer with the Doctor still on
the inside, and carried him along some
distance before he was freed from his
perilous position, but how he does n OF
know. He was considerably bruised by
the fall, but fortunately not seriously
injured. The horse ran short dis
lance and stopped. Both the horse
and the buggy were slightly disfigured,
but not greatly.
What foolish, absurd, ridiculous,
nonsensical, silly and laughable idea
II is for some people to think they can
buy clothing, shoes, hats. furnishing
goods and dry goods as cheap elee-
where as at M. Jacobson's. Don't take
my word see for yourself.
