Let us Rave the Belt Road.

The charter for the belt road for
GAINESVILLE should by all means be
utilized now before the Gracey-
Woodward Iron Co. undertakes the
building of private switch for their
furnace and occupies the right of way
of the most available route ON which
the belt road can be built. If this
company builds private switch, or
the L. & N. company should do the
work, that kills off the belt road en-
terprise, which would be of vast in
terest to the city and a paying in
vestment for the building company.
A belt road simply proposes to be an
independent line for drayage pur.
poses alone. 1t should be built on
the line laid out by the iron company
to the furnace location, extended
down Red river through the Pat
Henry place, striking the line of the
old l., A. & I. and over that roadbed
up the Cumberland to the old l., A.
d T. depot. This would open up
hundred good, cheap manufacturing
sites, convenient to plenty of water,
to be drawn from the two rivers,
with railroad facilities and offering
most attractive inducements to man.
ufacturing enterprise that could pos
sibly be offered. Moreover, should
any other railroad come to the city
in the tuture-a thing that is most
probable-it would strike this belt
line and give it connections with all
parts of the city. This is an Impor-
tant matter to the future growth and
prosperity Of the city which the bus
mess interest cannot well afford to
overlook or neglect. The belt line
certainly has preference over this
right of way, and VIC have no doubt
that the Gracey- Woodward Company
would gracefully yield the preference
and become large stockholders in the
line, as they are enterprising men,
and this company would at once be-
come very extensive patron of
the line, making it paying invest
ment from the start.

THE SEWERAGE sYsrEss.
It il Pronounced the Best in the State
by the Contractors.

Few people have an idea of the
dispatch with which CIarksville's
sewerage system is being built. The
advance force of hands cut into Col
lege street last evening with the
ditch for the main sewer. This
ditch is on an average about II feet
deep and is about six feet wide.
Something like $50 men were at
work on the contract yesterday eve
ming and they were moving dirt in
hurry.
The brick layers are following up
the excavating folce closely with
their work of making the main
sewer. This sewer is 40 by go inches
and is being built Of hard burnt
brick. Mr.. Quinn, the contractor,
speaking to LEAF CHRONICLE
man last evening, said he had never
used better brick in any sewer than
was going into the one here. "Pll
tell you," said he. "Clarksville is 60
ing to have the best sewerage sys-
tenn of any city in the State when it
is completed. The plans and specifi-
cations are extra and the material
that is being used in the construc-
ton is the very best. The main
sewer you will remember is one and
one third miles long, and it will
drain all that part of the city that
needs it worse, and when that is
done the other part of the system
can be completed at any time the
city may see fit. do not think the
system could be improved upon in
any instance"
In addition to the benefits of this
system from a sanitary point of view,
there is certainly a financial benefit
that the merchants will feel.
There are $50 men, who are paid
one dollar per day, at work on this
job. This will put in circulation
5000 per week. In addition to this
amount there are several brick
layers who receive better wages than
the common laborer, and thousand
and one other avenues through
which the money gets into circula-
ton. This, coupled with the money
which IS being paid out by the
Bending WORKS people, the Gracey-
Wood ward furnace, the GAINESVILLE
Land Company and the Clalksville
Mineral road should make times
lively, and cause the Hopkinsville
New Era to roach its hair back and
exclaim: "Why can't Hopkinsville
do like Clarksville?"

July I'd Mr.. Jas. s. Parrish put an
advertisement of his hair drier in the
DAILY LEAF CHRONICLE. Up to
last Saturday night-seventeen days
the profits on his sales directly
traceabIe to this advertisement more
than paid the LEAF-CHRoNICLE's
bill, besides securing for him several
hustling agents who will push this
valuable invention.
In addition to the home inquiry
ELECTED this advertisement brought
letters of inquiry and orders from
Texas, California and Minnesota,
points at which this paper has sub
scribers in two or three instances and
from parties to whom we suppose
home readers of the paper had sent
it in other instances.
Mr.. Parrish has had more inquiry
from this advertisement than from
all the newspaper advertising that he
has heretofore done. The moral OF
this is, If you have a good thing, as
Mr.. Parrish has, advertise it in the
LEAF CHRONICLE and it will be sure
to go.

Next morning DIR. Pate observed
Toms strong pulsations and pro-
nounced him out of danger and said
he might go home. DR.. Keesee said
there was never any danger of a man
dying under such pulsatiOns as were
exhibited by Bro. Mabry.

eral other fellows ransacked Dead
rick street and all of the law offices
on Cherry street Friday night of the

banquet. The boys were just dying
for little of that hay soup, but they

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self, A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass off, and it is only
when a case OF full-Aedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences OF
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages Of consumption, use Eilert's Ex-
tract Of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-
pepsia, Nervousness and all Bilious
Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.

SHORT TOBACCO CROP.
Severity of the Drouth and General
Prospects.

The LEAF-CHRONICLE several
weeks ago expressed the opinion
that the present crop of tobacco
would be the shortest crop produced
since 1874 and the predictions are
now being verified by reports from
all quarters, partial rains have pre-
vailed in some localities, helping the
cause very much.
The Tennessee weather-crop bulle-
tin issued by III. G.. Bate of the U. s.
Signal Service Corps, reports both
corn and tobacco suffering for rain.
Austin Peay, who has been getting
statistics for the Kentucky Agricul-
tural Department, hands us the fol-
lowing as the crops of 1890 and 1889
OF 10 farmers of Douglas Grange,
which goes to show the average acres
of those years:
10 farmers corn 1889, 500 acres,
1890, SIS acres; 10 farmers wheat
1889, 97S acres, 1890 S6S acres 10 far
mers tobacco 1889, 276 acres, 1890 2l4
acres.
Tobacco suffering for rain, and I'M
usually small and backward in
growth.
Wheat yield about 40 per cent. Of a
crop, and grain small and indiffer-
ent.
Corn good in some localities and
almost ruined by drought in others.
The farmers Home Journal has
reports from some 10 or IS counties,
which indicate that the crop will be
from 25 to IS per cent. short of last
years planting.

THE CITY MILLS.
Rumors That Jno. Il. Robbeth viii be

The news was pretty general on
the streets this morning that Jno. t.
KObbeth, one of the most successful
mill men in Southern Kentucky, had
taken an interest in the City Mills
at this place and would become gen.
eral monager of the same about the
first of August. Mr.. Kobbeth was
in the city yesterday and exhibited
the plans by which the mills would
be remodeled at a cost of about
81, 600.
A LEAF-CHRONICLE reporter call
ed on Geo. Irwin this morning for
facts concerning the trade. While
the transaction has been made, the
exact details are not yet ready for
publication.
This trade will bring to Clarks-
Vile one of the best mill men in the
country, who will add much to the
already efficient force employed at
the City Mills.
E. B. Whitfield, the present super
intendent of these mills, has made a
success of the business, and is one of
