afternoon he met the members OF the
Pine Bluff Gun club at Jones park,

Mr. J. A. Coles made the best score

the medal to the Pine Bluff Gun club,
with the understanding that the men,

The contest was at fifty yards.

MONTAGUE
10 Recover S1,559.33 Alleged to Be
Due on Timber Deal Between
Them.

Robert Trmble, by his guardian, D.
l.. Trimble, on Saturday brought suit
in the Jefferson circuit court against
c. H, Montague, the shingle mill own
er.
The plaintiff in his complaint alleges
that he entered into a contract with
the defendant by which he sold and
the defendant purchased from him
all the cypress timber on his land, the
Doris place, for which the defendant
agreed to pay $3.50 per thousand feet,
which amounted to approximately ST.
S46.72
The plaintiff states that the total of
payments was $61S.62, and that the
defendant after cutting a part of the
timber, abandoned the land and re-
fused and failed to cut the balance of
the timber, valued at, by the contract
price, S33123.
Wherefore the plaintiff prays judg-
ment against the defendant for 81 ,559-
SO, together with interest, costs and
other proper relief Austin and Dan

is badly overgrown, and so thick that
no sunshine or air can reach the
ground, consequently all the lower
bolls have rotted. There are a few
bolls around the middle if the stalk,
but the boil worm is running the top
crop. After careful examination of
field near this place was forced to
the conclusion that it could not be
counted for more than one-half the
same field made last year. This. how

the damage is universal in the bot

hope Of anything like a good crop
