FARM CHANGES.
Fairfield I,edperl

MANY new people are making ar
| rangements to remove to Jefferson
county the coming spring. Very gen
orally they are farmers from Illinois
who find land considerably cheaper
here than in the vicinity of their old
homes and markets and railway facil-
lies just as good. Many of the younger
men who are disposing of their Jeffer-
son county holdings are going TO the
newer states of the west where the
low price of land is a great induce
ment. Still the chances are that the
Illinois farmer will get the better of
the bargain in the long run

the merchant was making comparison
between the temperaments of men and
women as exhibited while shopping,
and. as might be expected, his remarks
were extremely favorable to the sterner
as against the gentler sex But there is
one line of goods a dealer will expert

that is fur coats Nine out of ten men
who purchase coat viii become dis

are the dealer will lose that mans trade.

be perfectly satisfied with the bargain.
But let that person pay $50 for a fur

LOST in A RIVER WRECK
Between Twenty-Five and Fift.
Passengers Drowned.

Carbonate, ILL.,, May 14.-The City
of Paducah, a Mississippi river pack
ct, was sunk near Brunkhorst Land
ing, four miles north, about 10
o'clock Sunday night. Between TWEEN
ty-five and fifty people were drown
ed, only seven escaping with their
lives. The City of Paducah left ST.
Louis Sunday morning on down
ward trip and stopped at most land
ings and loaded on freight, most of
which was corn. This fact attracted
attention from few of the passen-
gers, but no serious consideration
was given to the matter.
Between IL and IL o'clock Miss
Fannie Block, who in company with
her parents, Rev. and Mrs. Block,
was going from st. Louis to Evans
vile, Ind, was aroused from sleep
by a sudden jar. She asked her
mother if her berth had been broken
and no sooner had the words passed
her lips than water rushed into their
apartments and they We're compelled
to act quickly to save their lives.
With four others they escaped to the
Illinois shore by holding on the drift
wood and swimming. The seven
saved are Jews. Rev. Block is a
Jewish rabbi. The seven survivors of
the catastrophe made their way down
the river. They escaped in their
night clothes and arrived here with
wet blankets about them. Among
the drowned were about twenty five
negroes. The top of the boat cap

New Orleans, May 14.-New Orleans
capital is largely investing in oil
lands in Louisiana, as well as Texas.
Hardly day passes that some new
company is not organized here, hail

in abundance all through this section
and the news of the recent striking
of oil at $50 feet at Vinton, La, has
added impetus to the movement. Vim
ton is on a line with the Beaumont
gushers, and from it's nearness to
Orange, Texas, with the Sabine river
as the dividing line, has had the eff
feet of enthusing everybody in that
radius. Orange, Texas, is organizing
companies, and, in fact, at every little
town where there are any prospects,
companies spring up in night and

that $1,500,o00 already has been with
drawn from the banks for the pur-
pose of sinking wells.
The oil field is undoubtedly an ex-

Lafayette, La. Nearly all the new
strikes show high pressure.
