. Mr.. James Bottoms, of Russell
Springs, was in Columbia Monday
and made the following report:
Business in our town is as good
as could be expected under pres
ent weather conditions. Our
merchants have all had a good
business this winter and in all
the history of our town the inter-
est in building has never equaled
that of the last six months. Quite
a number of neat residences have
been erected and yet this work
continues. Of late quite an in
terest is being manifested in es-
tablishing a Bank in our town and
it is generally believed that this
will be accomplished this year.
The leader of this movement is
Mr.. Sylvanus Wilson, a member
of the merchantile firm of D.
Wilson & Son. T h e Russell
Springs Academy and Business
College, under the management
of Hatfield Bros, active educa-
tors, is as flourishing as it's most
sanguine friends could hope. This
institution has lis enrolled and is
doing an excellent work. Of late
measles and humps have been
annoying our community and in
terferred with the regular atten-
dance of some in school but no
serious effect has been expert
enced and the wave seems to have
spent it's main force. You may
say that Russell Springs is not a
dead town though 80 miles from
railroad.

You will notice, in another COL
umn, that Mr.. w. S. Griffin offers
his great Lexington Stallion for
sale. Also his entire stud. Red
Bird is one of the greatest horses
in this section of the state and
should he leave it it would be a
loss hard to over come. We trust
that some good man will buy and
keep Red Bird in Adair county.

ODD CIRCUMSTANCES
LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT

Mrs. T.. G. Prentiss, 3241 Calhoun
boulevard, is recovering from an in
jury received thru the accidental dis
charge Of "safety' revolver. Sew
eral days ago Mr.. Prentiss purchased
the weapon as a. protection against
burglars. He took it home and ex-
planned it's mechanism to Mrs. Prem
tiss. She picked up the revolver to
examine it, and as she did so, CHANGED
to glance out Of the window.
Near by was a house in course of
construction. Mrs. Prentiss saw spi-
raj of smoke or steam curling upward
thru one Of the windows. She thought
the structure was on fire and, in nerv-
GUS fright, clutched the revolver in
her hand. AS she did so she inaver-
tently pulled the trigger. The weapon
was discharged and the bullet plowed
its way thru her arm and found final
lodging place in the wall of the room.
A surgeon was summoned and the
wound was dressed. The revolver was
new and clean and there was no trouble
in getting the wound to heal.
The building adjoining the Prentiss
days later was badly scorched by

FOR A CAR Line
CITIZENS PREPARING MONSTER
PETITION RECITING CLAIMS.
Plans Outlined Show that the Proposed
Line Can Be Operated to Advantage
from Third Avenue and Central Ave-
nue. to Hillside Cemetery Citizens
Are Tired Of Walking.

Residents of the district bounded by
Spring, Buchanan and H streets and
TWenty-second avenue NE are starting a
movement for securing street-car line.
Property owners who live in that dl-
rection assert that it is matter Of the
utmost necessity that a car line should
be built to connect with the city lines.
At present the only car service avail
able is the Eighth and Central ave-
nue. line, which means long walk from
and to the car. The people who have
to come and 60 in that direction morn
ing and evening are to prepare a NAM
moth petition to obtain some sort Of a
service. Few persons are aware that
this is a thickly populated settlement
and that facilities for travel are COM
pletely lacking.
While two car lines are running
northeast of Central avenue-the West
ern avenue and Second street and the
Monroe and Bryant lines-residents liv-
ing southeast of Central avenue feel
the need of car service. Those inter

such car line, one which would be
of greatest utility to the residents and
which would, at the same time, offer
such inducements to the street railway
! company as to induce it to consider
the proposition.
The suggested line could be operated
to great advantage starting from Third
street and Central avenue to Spring
and Buchanan streets, thence to Tween.
ty-second avenue NE, to H street and
Hillside cemetery. Eventually the line
could be extended to New Brighton
| touching at Lake Johanna and Lake
Josephine. The lakes are popular sum
mer resorts and many pretty summer
homes are already dotting their shores
Hillside cemetery for two-thirds Of
the year is almost entirely cut off from
the city, and the many who wish tt
visit it find it impossible to do SO or
account Of the lack of conveyances. Dur
ing the open season bus runs to an(

not sufficient to satisfy the demands

FIVE MILLIONS SOLD OUT-AND

SELLER7 IF
STATUS OF THE MARKET
Minneapolis May Wheat (present
Against flood of bull news from

Against food of bull news from
every point of the compass, and re-
iterated talk of corner by Gates,
wheat sold down ~ cents this morning.
Horace Wing, a broker, sold 100000
bushels in the Chicago pit when the
market was strongest. No one knows
whom this selling was for-possibly it
was for Gates.
The local traders believe that Gates
has the wheat, but they also believe
that he will want to sell it out and not
carry it along until May. When he
will sell out is hard question. When
ever any big selling is seen, traders
become nervous, fearing that Gates may
be unloading on them. This makes it
a very nervous and cratic market
Meanwhile talk of $3.50 and So wheat
continues.
At noon a report came on 'change
that wheat from Argentine was offered
for delivery in Philadelphia, at $1.la
duty paid. This could not be verified
but it had it's depressing effect.
A Minneapolis house with repre-
sentative in the Chicago pit estimates
that at least 100000 May wheat was
sold out there today.
The market closed weak.

of fact to write a convincing Journal
