Three carloads OF cotton were received
at the Harris freight yard yesterday for
the Phenix mill and II was carted to tho
mill as soon as possible. 1t Is understood
that this Is only the first OF large con-
signment At Centreville three carloads
eauaiing hundred bales were Also re-
oeived yesterday afternoon and more Is
expected today. Other Of the Valley mills
have cotton bought and expect II at any
time The business has. taken on decid-
edly brighter look now and the Valley
merchants claim that business In all lines
has picked UP and that more money Is In
circulation than has been during the past
few months.
PHENIx.
Over a hundred people gathered last
evening in G.. A. n. hall In Phenix TO
take part in and witness the organizing
OF the association which has been formed
as an auxiliary TO McGregor post. Nearly
90 names were enrolled as charter mem
bers OF the new auxiliary and that num-
ber compares very favorably with the
rolls OF any post in the state. The new
members were duly sworn in and Com
mander Dean, who had presided called
for speeches from several Past Com
mander of the Department Smith spoke
at considerable length and others OF the
department spoke. Past Commander
Lake OF the post at Mystic, made some
remarks and members Of the local post
also spoke. The Woman's Relief corps

ing The associate members number 50.
CENTREvILLE.
The town treasurer's report OF warwic'
which the financial town melting declared
must be sent to each taxpayer before the
first OF November have been made out
and sent 10 the respective taxpayers. The
reports which must be mailed to nearly
5000 persons incur considerable expense
which Is looked upon with disfavor by
many Of the citizens. who think the many
wasted when the reports are printed in
the tax books when they are issued. II Is
claimed by many that the citizens ought
to know the treasurer's report before the
financial town meeting. or before the
town election, but the opinion seems TO be
divided.
Considerably more earth Is being placed
in the former cavity west OF the railroad
station caused by the freshet two years
