Miss Thomson. daughter of w. H.
Thomson, was thrown from her horse
and quite badly injured at the Rife
Range last Monday afternoon. 1t
seems that the horse became frighten-

standing on his hind feet; the young
lady jerked him and he fell backward,
she underneath. An examination re-
vealed that Miss Thomson had been
pretty badly bruised but luckily es-
capped serious injury.

Says the last issue of the Madison
County Democrat, in speaking of a
young lady who spent her childhood
in Ironton: miss Blanche Winfield,
of Ufalla Union Female College, Ala
baua, the musician who invariably
pleases, will perform on nearly every

A new time-card went into effect
Sunday morning, abolishing the A7ca-
dia train. That train now runs every
day, Sunday included but comes no
further south than Bismarck. 1t leaves
that point at five o'clock in the morn
ing and returns at half past eight in
the evening. The accommodation
train heretofore run from DE Soto, is
abolished, and the Bismarck train Is
supposed to do the work of both. The
south and north-bound Memphis trains
both stop here at night on flag. The
removal of the Arcadia train is great
inconvenience to people in this sec
ton aud there is unusual complaint be-
cause of the discontinuance. A petit
ton, addressed to the heads of the de-
partments, asking restoration of the
service has been generally signed by
the people of the Valley and it is hoped
that the train will soon be put on
again. The best interest of both the
public and company alike demand it.

himself retreated behind his desk, on
ly to come out again moment later.
