day night. when it was expected that
the Bishop would preach and Miss
Emery would talk on the subject of
Missions. The train arrived some forty
minutes late and therefore IL was con
Guided that the service hour having

The handsomeAnew Clougis IL War
rem Organ al the Methodist church WAS
sold by Landyoigt & Vddakin. The
list price was 4525. There are now
four of these celebrated Instruments
in the churches of this city. and we
sold them all except the one at the
Episcopal church. When properly
cared for and not abused these in
struments never fail to give satisfac-
ton. Ladies of the Methodist church
have expressed themselves AS bring
highly pleased with the new instru-
meDt, and We thank them for the con-
sideration shown us in this sale. where
there was very warm competition,
which we met and routed 1t is a
pleasure To US to know that we can
sell organs as cheap as anyone, and
this being true, we never could under
stand why we should not do all the
business in that line in this county. as
we are the only resident dealers and
agents. There has never been one
word Of complaint about the organs
we have sold in this city and county.
and we never sell any but such instru-
ments as we know to be alright II

wanted (meaniBg TIMBER in sufficient
quantities. the location of 4 spoke anu
hub factory in Forrest City would be n
certainty. White oak and hickory
timber are the varieties desired for the
anufa cture of spokes and hubs. and
Mr.. Byrn would like to know every
man in the county who has any OF this
timber for sale. White oak and hick-
ory trees from IL to 80 inches in diane
ter are the kinds which make the best
spokes, and 1t seems to us that such
timber as this should be found in
great quantities in this county. In
fact We know that there is a world of
such varieties within easy reach of
Forrest City to justify the establish
ment OF a spoke factory here, and we
are solicitous that timber owners give
the gentleman proper encouragement.
He told us that il he found the timber
he would set about at once To purchase
property and complete all arrange
