There is some talk of another rail-

/
Glad to welcome DR.. r. II. White
back to good old Nevada county.
He has located down near Bodcaw,
and will practice medicine there.
Wish him success.
Nevada County Bank is charging
its quarters, by tearing out partition
and will hereafter occupy the whole
of its brick, half of which has hereto
fore been used as law office.
Residences are in demand-not a
vacant one In town, we learn. 1t
would pay somebody to erect quite a
number of neat houses, to rent; and
it would likewise be of benefit of the
town.
Mr.. ID. II. White, of Rosston, one
OF our best farmers, was up Satur-
day-made us pleasant call, renew :
ing for his paper He says corn is
looking well, but cool weather has
hurt cotton
Friday accompanied by his .bet-
ter half" the editor went beyond
Boughton on fishing expedition,
our first trip of the kind this season.
Spent day pleasantly, catching a
nice string of fish.
Mr.. J. b. Murry has returned
from Fayetteville, and is now study
ing law in office of Hon. G.. G.. Ham
by. He is most intelligent, indus
trious and worthy young man, and
we wish him the best of success.
We learn colony of Norwegian
farmers will soon move from Kansas
to near this place. AS they are a
sturdy, industrious and enlightened
class. they will prove great develop
ers, and materially assist in building
up this section.
The Prescott & Northwestern rail-
road is moving steadily forward. We
learn from DR.. Powers that it is now
hauling in from As 900 to sc, 900 feet
of logs daily, and when the new cars
ordered get here, can easily deliver
20 900 per day.
Messrs Atkinson, Tompkins and
EGreeson on Monday removed their
law Office to the Moncrief brick on
West Main Street, occupied last year
as grocery room by w. r.. White &
Co. They have a very large law
library and needed more room, and
now have plenty.
We were mistaken IN stating last
week that the school election would be
held under new election law. School
directors Withhold it. In the presence
OF quite a number, an attorney made
assertion which mislead US. We
don't claim to know everything, as
some wiseacres do.
The editor of this paper, accom-
panied by his wife, will leave Tues
day, to attend the annual meeting of
the Arkansas Press Association, at
BatesvIlle. An excursion will be
taken to Washington. d. c., and
other points, which we will go on if
not providentially hindered.
T The Tom Allen High School closes
on May %, with nice entertain
ment, invitations and program of

were printed at this Office. The fol-
lowing young ladies will graduate:
Misses Ethel McRae, Hattie Vaughn,
Maude Hayes, Allie Stanton and
Matte Higgins. Miss Minnie Con-
ncvey has !illed the place of princi-,
pal crcditably. 4
AL the Democratic Convention,
held at the court house Monday night
Messrs w. V. Tompkins and j. Ii.
Watson were nominated for school
directors Of this district-as good
men as we have. We learn that the
opposition viii do its best to defeat
Democracy. Let every democrat
turn out, and vote and work for the
election of our ticket-if we don't
look sharp defeat will be our portion,
With good work, there is little dan
ger.
Brick MAKING.-M Mr.. j. W. Mar
shall has gotten to work in earnest,
making brick very fast, on his new
yard down near Mr. f. NJ. Smyth's.
We went down the other day to see
in operation, his fine brick machine,
made by b. Haycroft, Indianapolis,
Ind, which has capacity of 36 brick
per minute. Machine grinds up the
clay, presses and delivers the brick
very rapidly, doing splendid work.
This is new enterprise and quite an
acquisition to our town. Mr.. Nj. can
supply all South Arkansas with brick
soon, if called upon. He is now put
ting up big kiln.
