The Rigl1t-o t-of-way Completed.

The Marshall Wave of the 24th says: The right way for the railroad extension from Harrison was completed from Buffalo eto Leslie Thursday. The money has been raised by the citizens of Marshall and Leslie to pay all the indemnity claimed by some along the line of survey over whose land it passes, which amounts to something near S1600, $500 of which was raised by Leslie as al : most the entire amount is claimed by the farmers of the Cove.
 As the right-of-way across the county was all the bonus asked for, the people of Searcy county are very enthusiastic oyer the prospect for the much needed railroad.
 It has been given out that con- struction work will begin by the first of September, which we be- lieve to be the fact, as we have been assured that when the right-of-Way was secured work would commence at once.
 As the right to locate the depot has been given our citizens, it is now thought that it will be located about a quarter of a mile east from the square.

Our Corn Philosophers.

From the Morrisville Messenger
\ correspondent of the Londonderry
Sitter crowds some mighty truths into
the following brief paragraph;
Corn is an exclusively American pro
duct and as a food made our sturdy
forefathers what they We're. But
wheat can be grown in England and
of course, it is the right thing to use
it and the correct thing to disparage
it in all our periodicals, and yet we
have commissioners all over Europe
trying to get them to use corn. The
fact is if you want to feed a work
horse, a poor COW, hog or a lot of
hens, turkeys, geese or ducks corn is
the staple food If you can have but
one grain to use in your kitchen corn
has more nutriment and more ways of
good cooking than any other. OF
course other grains are good, but King
Corn made our New Enganders the
sturdy, hearty race We are. Rice
makes a Chinaman, wheat an Italian,
cabbage a Dutchman and corn a six
foot Yankee.
Right. No cereal food can equal
the brown bread, Johnny cake, Indian
or "hasty puddin' of our sturdy an.
cestors. In them are health, strength
and long life.

THE PRISONER OF zENDA.
Play Of Dramatic Intensity Given Be-
fore an Audience Which Filled the
Auditorium


Play Of Dramatic Intensity Given Be.
fore an Audience Which Filled the
Auditorium.
The Prisoner of Zenda was greeted
by a packed house at the Auditorium
Tuesday night, practically every seat
being taken. The prologue, with a
purpose only to show the liaison
which brought the "Elphberg" red
strain into the Rassendyl family, is
an unnecessary appendage to the play.
The first act opened unpromisingly and
to admirers of Anthony Hopes novel
who had seen in the minds eye Ru-
dolph Rassendyll as stalwart of form
and fine of feature an ideal was shat
tered when a youth of inferior ply
sique ambled in. his appearance of in
t,riority enhanced by his dress. his
bunch of carrot whiskers (the Elph-
berg red) and his cigarette. This was
the man who was to play the part of
king, win the love of the princess. and
thwart Black Michael and Rupert of
Hentzau.
TO Mr.. Bufham's credit it should be
said that he was not SO bad as his sub
stitute seemed at first blush. In the
habilimonts of the king he was com
pletely changed in appearance from
the first who was seen and he acted
the part with fervor. although display
ing a tendency to rant. w. ID. Collins
as Col Sapt the rough and ready sol
der; Joseph Selman as Fritz Won Tar
lenheim. ana W. J. Townsheud as
Capt. Hentzau played their respective
roles with excellent effect, and in
every way were in keeping with the
characters as pictured by the author
Several of the minor parts were good,
especially William Colvin in the dou-
BILE role of the young English artist
and the mayor of Streslau, and Percy
Ward as the English ambassador and
the three ladies', Helen Bell as Princess
Flavia, Eugene Dubois as Antoinette
DeMauban, and Della Earle as Frau
Teppich, were fairly satisfactory.
The play is one of action and dra-
matte intensity. The interest of the
audience was sustained, and some of
the more striking situations were re-
ceived with marked demonstrations of
approval 1t might not be fair to say
that the general effect was disap-
pointing, but certainly expectations
were not realized. This was due in
large part to the first effect of the
leading character, and the feeling at
all times that he did not conform to
Anthony Hopes hero.

Almanac Sold for $155.

an almanac for the year 1861" was

copy of this issue is known in this

the American Antiquarian society of
Worcester, Mass. As it is pretty
fairly established that the old print

the Vermont Historical society at

Samuel Green in Cambridge between
1860 and 1870, it is probable that the

Notes from the Deer Park.

Mr.. Battey who is now in charge
of the Halifax deer park, reports that
the deer and elk have wintered in
fine shape. SO far as is known, only
three deer died during the winter, all
from natural causes. The exact
number of the deer is not known, but
it is estimated at $50. There are
IS elk. The animals have been fed
during the winter, load of hay being
driven out and unloaded in the park
two or three times a week. Some of
the deer are very tame and eat from
the hand or stick their noses in the
mems pockets in their search for ears
of corn or other dainties. A large
part of the herd will now come at the
call OF Mr. Batteys voice. They
first refused the dry feed a week ago.

which are now becoming plenty.
The trout in the fish ponds have ap-
palentiy multiplied rapidly, a large
amount of fry and a large number of
tingernngs having been seen in the
streams this spring. Mr.. HOughton.
the proprietor, is expected soon for
his spring visit.
