A green, raw country boy, the son of
German parents, who lived on farm,
was given at the age of twenty-one a
team Of horses and a wagon and $1,000
in cash to start him in life. We met
this young man five years later, the
other day, and he told us that he owned
40 acres of fine land for which he had
refused 500 per acre and $4,000 worth
Of personal property and owed only
$4,000, all told, which debt he would
wipe out this year. When this can be
done, it is folly to say that the day Of
opportunity Is past for the American
boy.

WIDER SHOULDERS.
They Are Necessary to Go With the
GainsbOrough Hats.

Wide shoulders are now in vogue,
and we have the large, fiat hats to
thank for this. The wide effect is
gained by the additions of broad col
lars, ample fichus, etc. The sailor
blouse is one of the most popular
shapes for morning and general wear,
and with this is often worn the new
shape of turban, which differs from the
old in it's wide brim and generally am
pie effects, while the outlines, instead

nALEp conn FODDER.

We have taken not little trouble to
ascertain whether or not city demand
existed or could be created for baled
shredded corn fodder, a forage which
is conceded to be equal to the best
timothy hay. Correspondence with
commission men who handle such prod
ucts shows that it is a new thing about
which they know little. One commits
sion man writes that while there is
no question about the value of the fod-
der, there is a trouble connected with
keeping it in baled condition, it hav-
ing the tendency to absorb dampness
from the atmosphere, resulting in
production of mold inside the bale.
He adds that this class of fodder can
be more economically consumed on the
farm, releasing the hay product of the
farm for sale in the cities. But this
fact in no manner belittles the value Of
this product

Col. L. Minor and Joe Walker re- turned Friday from Little Rock, where the latter took the Shriners' degree and both took in the banquet given Thursday night by the Masons in con- clave. In taking this last degree, Mr. Walker assures his friends he got his moneys worth.
 There were registered at the Hazel wednesday from Arkansas points the following: J. s. Graham, Tuckerman; J. c. Dowell, Walnut Ridge; J. w. Mangrum, Sulphur Rock; P. R. An drews, E. M. Carelee, Augusta; Geo. c. Peters and J. F. Mason, Jonesboro.

 The committee of citizens se- cured options on all necessary lands for the right-of-way, and forty acres in Dill's addition of East Newport for shops. The aggregate cost will be $1O,OOO, only half of which has been as yet subscribed. Surely the property owners and business men of Newport will not let slide this opportnne chance of securing another rialroad, a feeder to our trade and future expansion, a business invest ment which promises heavy re turns from a small expenditure.
 Messrs. Rockenfeller and Heatford left Friday night for Chicago and Geo. W. Chase, of Rush, promoter of the road who accompanied them here, de- parted for Little Rock Satur- day morning.

THOMAS Y. HUDDLESTON.

As announced in Thursdays issue, Thomas Y. Huddleston. father of Mrs. R. W. Randy, died at the home of his daugh- ter on Main street Thursday morning at II o'clock of heart disease.
 The deceased lived to the ripe age of 77, and for many years has been very feeble, part of which time he suffered total loss of sight. Living with his daughter and brothers during his last years, he has borne his sutferings patiently and with a cheerful heart, being shown ev- cry attention by them. He had two sons, James P. and w. NJ. Huddleston, both of Texas.
 Deceased was a native of Mississippi, serving in both the Mexican and and Civil wars, having received a captainship in the. Confederate army. La- ter he served as sheriff of Sharp county for ten years, and to this former home his body was taken for burial and will be inferred by the side of his wife at Evening Shade.
 The many friends of the fami- ly extend sympathy to the be- reaved in the loss ot this mem Der, who was generous and charitable, thinking more of the pleasures of others than his own comforts.

ROAD OFFICIALS HERE.
After Touring Surveyors Route Declare that Newport Must Furnish Right-of- Way if Shops and Ter
 minal Are to Be
 Secured.

That the Morning Star Rail road will soon be under con- struction, there is no doubt; that the road will extend from Rush to some point on the White River is just as certain; but whether that terminal is to be Newport or some other point on the White, must soon be de- cided by the business men and citizens of Newport. The pro- position is strictly up to them and the situation must be faced in action, which means much to a greater future for Newport or in a failure to act, which will not only retard the town in 8 negative way-through failure to seize upon opportunity-but in upbuilding rival and com petltlve points.
 Vice-President and General Manager Geo. H. Heafford and Theo. Rockenfeller one of the principal stockholders, both of Chicago, who together will own a controlling interest in the road arrived in Newport Friday afternoon, after trip overland from Harrison, Ark, to Rush and then along the surveyed route to Newport. While here, they met many of the city's business men and consulted with the committee of three, Ike Goldman, L. Minor and James W. GIubps, appointed at the recent citizens meeting to se- cure options on the lands need ed for right-of- way and shops.
 Having secured the r;ght-of- way from Rush to this point, free of cost, they see no reason why as much may not be eX- pected of Newport, especially when the shops to be located at this end of the line are taken into consideration. involving a pay roll of much value to the mercantile interests of the city. In the event that Newport fails to do her part, the visitors eX. pressed their opinion that the line of survey would be chang ed, crossing the Iron Mountain at Grandglaise and making a terminal upon the West bank of the White, relieving the com pany of the heavy expense of bridging the river, the esti mated cost of which is $500. .OO0.
 The road is to be built as an outlet to the mineral resources of the counties north, in which Holland capital is heavily in terested. The products of these mines are to be shipped to a terminal on the White and con- veyed by barges to New Or leans, thence across the Allan tic to the Netherlands. The day may soon come when emelters are to be located in this section and the terminal of a road which carried the out put of these mines, would not be an unlikely place for their location. The road is now capi- , talized at $1, ,500,0OO and will Ghave from no to 120 miles of tr9'ck not counting switches. Dhe cost of a b90tt alone across the White dd pay the expense of fortyNJ les of track in the Oil Trouaa bottom and the officials feel tRN they are asking nothing unreason- able of Newport i1f considera- ton of the cost of entering here and the advantages offered in the location of shops.
