A Rock Creek Leyee

The city Of lola has pushed itself
eastward until it is close to the banks
of Rock Creek and the possibility of
flood which will overflow all the
newly laid-out lots has caused the
construction of a levee. The Nor
thrups, who own the old j, McCarley
place, the Brooklyn Park proprietors,
Mr.. Benton and Mr.. Geo. e. Nichol-
son have all contributed to the ex-
pense and the levee extends north
from the Moran road along the east
side of the McCarley place, 1t is be-
lieved that unless the creek breaks
lite record for high water there is no
danger from it, and a similar levee
along the north side of the east road
south Of the line of factories, would
insure keeping the water out.

A Tennessee Story,

The boys Of the Twentieth who are a
little modest about their war stories
give the credit of many of them
to the Tennessee boys, who would
stand for anything. Among the
yarns thus spun is the following:
A Tennessee youth onguard was APP
preached by the officer of the day.
He paid no attention to him and the
officer inquired why he didn't salute,
raked him over the Goals for disrs-
gard of duty and lacked him up
roundly. Haven't you any orders, ("
he inquired. "No sir" said, the
southerner. "What did the corporal
of the guard tell YOU" was asked
Nothing" was the laconic answer.
"What did he say to you when you
left, asked the officer. "He didn't
say much" replied the Tennessean

the day, that he was regular devil. y

The Boy and the Advertiser.

Ft.t Smith Kodac: a boy was sent
after a pail of water, says an ex-
change. 1t was necessary to prime
the pump each time and give dozen
or more strokes at the handle to start
the water. He poured in the printing
and pumped out as much as he poured
in. Then he stopped to rest and the
prime ran down again. After two or
three hours of alternate pumping and
resting he concluded that it did not
pay to pump, and therefore quit in
disgust. The story reminds us of the
merchant who advertised few
weeks, stopped awhile and allowed
the people to forget him and his
business before he advertised again,
and concluded that it did not pay to
advertise. The fact is that the pump
had lost the printing while he rested

THE BANANA TRADE.

A. S. Grant, a wholesale grocer and job
her of Wichita, Kan, was here yesterday
TO see about making arrangements with
the Eureka Banana and Development COM
pany for supplies of bananas. Wichita
uses about two carloads per week of
bananas on an average all the year round.
Heretofore the purchases have been made
in New Orleans. There is Il difference In
freight rates of 81 cents per 100 pounds
between Galveston and New Orleans in
favor of Galveston, and the opportunity
for the building up OF large trade IN
bananas between Galveston and the Kansas
territory is very good. Quicker delivery
also fayors Galveston. Tho only objec-
ton Mr.. Grapt found to Galveston was
that all the bananas received here are of
one kind. whereas variety is preferable.
