 THE TRIBUNE agency can furnish you abstracts on short notice and at the same rates they can be procured from any abstractor in the county.

 M. Randolph, the Green Forest brick maker, turned off the finest lot of brick last week we have ever seen. They are simply dandies, and demonstrate con- clusively that Green Forest dirt can not be excelled for making fine brick.
 c. M. Whitney of Fort Smith taught quite a school in the art of dress cutting in Green Forest last week. He has an improved system that seems to catch all the ladies. Miss Lizzie Shibley has been given the local agency for the art.
 Mrs. Julia Phillips, who left here two weeks ago for Beasly, Texas, was mar ried to w. Norman, farmer of that place, as soon as she arrived, having arranged all necessary details for the wedding by correspondence. The par ties had not met before.
 w. L. Crow of Russellville, of whom we made mention last week as thinking of locating in Green Forest, has decid- ed to open a law office here about the first of August. MT. Crow has the ap- pearance of being a nice gentleman and good lawyer and we believe he will make us valuable citizen.
 E. M Clark, one of the railroad stone contractors, was in town Friday. His force is now engaged in the construction of the piers for the Long creek bridge. It will be steel structure, 240 feet long, supported by three piers. One of the piers is already complete and the work on the others is in good headway. MT. Clark says this will be substantial and very finely appearing bridge when com- pleted.
 Hon. Eldon M. Bare, Democratic Nominee for Circuit Clerk, accompanied by his wife and little son, spent some time in Green Forest the past week. MT. Bare always finds a warm welcome in Green Forest. He feels reasonably cer- tain of being our next Circuit Clerk, since he has no opposition. Mr. Bare is all right. If he doesn't make one of the best officials the county has ever had, THE TRIBUNE will be badly fooled.
