 Morrilton Headlight: The aspirants for post office honors at this place have been caucusing for several days in re- gard to holding a primary election, but up to the hour of going to press the mat ter had not been definitely settled.

Dover Dots
 A genuine ghost has been discov- cred in Dover, or he has at least dis covered some one that he can scare, and now one-half of our town de- clares that they would not sleep in the .shannted house." For the par ticulars ask Hatley or Mr. Woods. The farmers were beginning to congratulate themselves on being able to work in the fields, but now alas, they are kept in doors. . ]. Dr. Ruff has had his telephone line fix ed, but the new wire does not seem to work as well as the old. There is a little talk of putting mp line from Dover to Russellville by stock com pany. We think it would be a cap ital investment. <. Mrs. E. J. Hays and daughters have returned from an extended visit to relatives and friends in Pennsylvania and New York and are now domiciled in the Hogins house. Death has again visited our town and taken one of our little school girls. Gertrude, daughter of Mrand Mrs. E. c. Brad ley, was born Sept. II, 1882, and died Feb. 15, 1893. She was sick only a few days, but suffered greatly during her entire illness. How much she will be missed in the home, in the school and Sabbath school. Her face will nevermore be seen, but her memory will last like beautiful picture. The entire com munity sympathize with the parents and sisters in their bereavement. 'Tis the second of the family buried the past month. A new black smith shop has been opened in Do yer by MT. John Herrin We wish him abundant success. Rev. E. D Landers preached at the Baptist church Sunday and Sunday night <.

 Alfred Cook, the contractor, has fin- ished the piers for the Ouita iron bridge, and the same was recieved by the com missioners and payment ordered. The work was done under many difficulties, owing to which the contractor did not do more than come out even on the job. The bridge is expected to be completed and ready for use in a very short time.
 Friends of the DEMOCRAT will confer favor and aid in making the paper more interesting by handing or sending in the names of persons visiting in town or of those leaving town for time. Other local or social items will be very thankfully received.
