STILL ANOTHER VICTORY.
wallingford Beaten Last Night by the
 Score of to g.

WaIlingford Beaten Last Night by the
 Score of 6 to g.
 The New Haven polo team added an- other to their long list of victories by again defeating the tail-enders at the Quinnipiac rink last night. The Wal lingfords played their usual team and New Haven was augmented by Jordan, the new player, who took Williams place in the first part of the game.
 Wallingford opened the scoring, Wood getting the first goal after il minutes and 40 seconds play. B. Gavitt equal ized 1 minute and AS seconds later. No more scoring took place in the first half. Rather slow playing characterized the opening of the second half, and it took Gavitt almost four minutes to put the New Havens in the lead. Eighteen sec onds later Mitchell squared the game by evading Mallory.
 From this on the Wallingfords played a splendid game, showing an amount of dash and go. quite unusual for them. Notwithstanding this fact they were un- able to get the ball caged, and the New Havens, who were taking matters rath- CT easily, added four goals to the score. Wood cleyerly caged the ninth and last goal of the game shortly before the gong sounded. The score was to 8 in favor of New Haven. Woods was the referee.

Rev. T. Dewitt Talmadge, undoubt- edly the greatest living divine, occu- pies in the hearts and minds of the peo- pie a position of pre- eminent esteem and regard. No other preacher is so widely known, no other clergyman is so distinguished throughout the world A great orator and writer, his sermons have the widest dissemination, until there is scarcely a family where his name and works are not known.
 When such a man, a recognized lead- CT and teacher of the people, testif1es by his written testimonial that Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem edy has helped him and that he recom- mends it's use for invigoration after over-Work, to restore the strength, en- ergy, nerve force and vitality of the system, when for any reason they are lost, weakened or impaired, those who are sick and suffering, who are weak, { nervous, without strength, energy and ambition, who are discouraged and dis heartened by repeated failures to be cured, in fact all who have need of a Strength-g1V1ng and healtn restoring medicine, can take renewed hope from the words of this great preacher, that X Dr. Greene's Nervura is the one remedy among all others to give them back the health and strength they have lost.

 I commend Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy for invigorat- ing after over-work. I have used the Nervura for that purpose.

The last Meeting of the Old City Council. First Meet
 ing of the New.

On Tuesday evening Mayor Norman called the Council to order with all present except Alderman Gazzola. After the usual order of business. adjournment was had and Mayor Norman, in few, well chosen words, thanked the mem- bers of the City Government for the klnd and courteous treatment that had been accorded him during his term.
 Just as Mayor Norman stepped down out of his seat the electric lgshts went out and as they did someone ln tzse I dark remarked tout goes the old council a.ss the electric lights" But this did nj last but few seconds and then Mayor Norman gave Mayor-elect Cameron the oath of office, who in turn "swore in' the Aldermen present, E. T. McCreight, H. G. Mitchell and o. M. Norman then City Clerk Schultz and Treasurer H. A. Carter. Aldermen J. B. Garrett, A. J. Vaccaro and J. W. Hale being absent, the Mayor sent the Marshal out to "bring lem in" In a few moments enough of the absent ones were present to make a quorum.

THE FIRE FIEND.
Home of Wat c. Brooks Con-
 snmed Thursday morning.

Wednesday night about 9:3O o'clock the fire alarm sounded and before anything could be done the stable of Joe Scholem was en- tirely consumed.
 Thursday morning about 8:3O o'clock the alarm again sounded and the fire proved to be the resi- S)enes q Wat c. Brooks, the tray.
 1.og ', idi1ny vaR zijs < | ztFsst 1ss be- t~e ~eeq zfn md New Y York avenue. me Fire Department responded pronaptly and tho it was impossi- ble to save the burning building, made a splendid and successful fight and saved the adjoining resi- dences of Mrs. Josephine Spain and Fl. H. Myers. At times the flames, reaching high in the air would reach down and nearly touch the pretty Myers residence and for . time 1t looked as if it was bound to burn. The wind, however, shifted and the noble fire fighters took advantage of it and kept a constant stream of water playing on it, thus adding to their splendid record another miraculous save.
 The house burned was the prop erty of Mrs. w. K. Sims, and was uninsured. Loss on same about $500. Loss on furniture, etc., of Mr. Brooks will probably run up to $400.
 Thus it is that the need of water works is so forcefully demonstra- ted time after time. It is shame and disgrace for a city the size of Brinkley to be without the slight est means of defense against the onslaught of fire when we are blessed with the finest Volunteer Fire Company in Arkansas. It now remains to be seen whether our new city officials will provide the great need of water.
