Informal Rehearsal.

The first informal concert ten
dered by Madam Devrient to her
pupils and friends, took place at
the Trinity NJ. f. church last even
ing The church was filled with
an appeciative and music loving
audience, who heartily applauded
the we'll merited talent of Madam
Devritent's class. Without excep-
ton the program was well rendered
and did not drag in the least.
The contralto solo of Miss Emma
Louise Wilmer and soprano
solo Of Miss Cora Boyle, both OF
which were heartily encOred, show
ed deep study and perfect com.
mand of voice. With two such
voices as these San Antonio can
feel proud. Our city is, no doubt
the musical center of Texas. The
performers were the recipients Of
many floral gifts from their appre'
ciative friends.

one of the most populous and
wealthy counties in the state and

deavors to secure large vote for

Very respectfully your obedient

The gentleman to whom this

down long enough for him to make
a speech.

 Miss Fannie LOyejoy entertained heI friends on last Friday evening. The young people all spent a most enjoyable evening -Misses Essie Glover and Ola Dickson and Mrs. Dickson, of Brinkley, are the guests of Mrs. J. NJ. Lovejoy.
 rhe high water prevented J. M. LoyeJoy from going out to his school on Monday, and consequently he spent two days in en- forced idleness.
 The rainfall here Sunday and Sunday night. which was about six inches, is said to be the heaviest since 1877. at which time fall of nine inches occurred within twenty-four hours.
 The wind Sunday night blew down a cabin on the Lovejoy place. west of town. There were some negroes living in 1t. and although the roof was blown in upon them, they stayed there until morning, when they came out unhurt.
 On Monday afternoon the lightning struck Mrs. Johnson's house and severely shocked the members of the family, espe- cially Neeley and Miss Carrie, both of whom were stunned for while, but have felt no evil effects since.
 It is reported that there will be two mar riages in Wheatley soon. and we hope that it is true, or that something Interesting will occur soon, for not being gifted with the genius of Frank Chambers, we find it pretty hard to get up the Wheatley TINES.
 Our feilow-townsman, P. J. Medley, is now candidate for the offics of County Judge. Mir. Medley says that the man who beats him will have 10 hustle. And we believe it, for he is an energetic, popu- lar man, and one who. if elected, will fill the place acceptably. We give him hearty hand shake on his platform.

 Rush Stockard, of Forrest City, was out Sunday. visiting his parents and shaking hands with friends.
 c. N. Brown and family, of near Good win, who were in Lee county some days, have returned homo.
 John Cole, one of our church stewards, who has been visiting his mother in Missis- sippi, has returned to Goodwin.
 A dreadful downfall of rain. accompa- nied by lightning and thunder, passed over Goodwin towards the latter part of Sunday night.
 Big Creek was higher this week by seY- eral inches than was ever known before. Last year it reached nine inches higher than any previous record.
 F. J. Nicely, of Wheatley, long resi- don't of the prairie country, was in Good win lately. He has announced himself as candidate for county judge.
 Judge r. 0. Thweatt, or Helena, was In Goodwin some days ago. The Judge is a candidate for the Circuit Jndgeshp. and is looking after his political prospects.
 The rains are making the farmers lit tie restless. At this season of the year activity is necessary in farm life, and when opportunity offers they try to crowd two days into one.
 We have noticed several hunters out snipe shooting during the last few days. What was once a fine field for that sport does not exist now, as the birds are either less numerous or In their journey north ward. Take another course.
 Ennis Henley, an old citizen of Phillips and Lee counties. has been in Goodwin several times lately. He was almost an invalid for several months, but lately his health has improved. We are glad to see him ont and looking well again.
 The prairie is again putting on carpet of green. Cattle and other stock will soon live in luxury. With proper cultivation what fine country this could be made. Stock peas could be sown in April, May, June and July, providing food for swine and cattle, scarcely equaled by any other. Grass is the natural product of this prairie soil, and timothy and clover with other kinds gIow to perfection here. With these advantages our progress is slow.
