Queer w ork at Echo

What may be termed failure under
peculiar circumstances took place at
Echo last week. Some months ago
Fletcher and Proctor Daily came to
this place with secondhand stock OF
merchandise from some point in Ill
inois. They were quite anxious to sell
but as appearances were against their
being the legitimate owners no one
would buy. Finally they went out to
Echo and made some arrangement
with Judge Il. I Landrum and began
conducting business as III. I. Lam
drum 4 Co." A week or two ago load
of flour was bought at Southwest City
and st. Louis check given in pay
menI which came back protested; about
the same time the brothers were ar
rested for selling "rock aud rye" a
well known congh(?) mixture. To
their attorney they gave another check
to secure him for going on their tenn
porary bond or for legal services. This
also turned up dishonored. On a pre-
vious occasion they borrowed several
hundred dollars from Freeman Nidif-
fer, getting Bill Ballard and Ben Mat
thewson on the note. AS matters were
getting little warm the Dailys turned
what few goods there were in the store
over to their endorsers, took the train
Monday of last week at Fairland and
have not since been seen. 1t is learned
they were conducting an Alliance store
somewhere in Illinois and the belief is
they ran the goods out of the country
and brought them here. Mrs. Fletch-
or Daily is still at Echo; she says one
of the brothers was quietly arrested
in this city and taken back to the
place from whence they came; that
the people rose up and would have
him but his attorney got him
aside on pretext of advising with
him, and told him to run, which adj
vice he took

Canadian District.

r. T. Blackstone, of Webbers Falls,
administrator of the I. H. Harles es-
tate, was up last week visiting at A.
A. Kelley's and looking after some
business matters. He says the agri-
cultural prospects of his section are
not at all favorable; much ofthe cotton
was drowned and in instances where
it was possible to replant the ground
in corn, only a small crop is promised.
Mr.. Blackstone has several times tried
the experiment. Of raising wheat, bat
without success. The soil is Of such
a character as TO produce too rank
straw and too little grain. Despite the
fact that the railroad has been built
on the opposite side Of the river from
Webbers Falls and a station establish
ed close by, Mr.. Blackstone says his
town is steadily improving and enjoys
a good trade.
