A couple of cars of doors were
shipped from the screen factory
this week. That about disposes
of all the stock left on hand when
the factory closed.
Walter Nagel happened into
town this morning after an eight
months absence in California and
Texas. And he seems to be right
| glad to get back to Missouri.
| Mr.. G. B. Lindsay was May 1st
appointed general agent of mail
service of the Wabash lines. The
position is a good one, and we are
glad to know that Gratz got it.
The excursionists from st. Louis
next Sunday are requested to take
their meals at the hotel, as the
Sisters at the Convent will not be
prepared to serve dinners on that
occasion.
Remember Prof. G. B. Thomas
of Carleton College, at Farming
ton, Mo-, breaches at the M. E.
Church, Sunday, May 20, 1906,
morning and evening. Give him
a good hearing.
There seems to be a sentiment
all through Southeast Missouri
that there have been too many
murderers left unpunished. The
tide has turned and the guilty will
have to suffer for their crimes.
The Reynolds county circuit
court convenes May 28th. A large
number of witnesses will attend
from here to testify in the case of
State VS.. Arthur Spaugh for the
murder of Sheriff Polk May 25th
last.
De Soto and other towns ad-
iacent to St. Louis are endeavor-
ing to secure the location Of shoe
factories of some of the big firms
in st. Louis. What an admirable
place the Valley would be to To-
cate such an institution.
| Somebody over in Pennington
last Thursday sent a report to the

Gratis of Iron county will be held
at the courthouse, Saturday, May
IL, 1905, at one o'clock P. M, for
the purpose of selecting delegates

tend.
Joseph Mccoy, Secretary of the
Republican State Committee, was
in Ironton last Saturday to make
a speech to the county convention.
Evidently the prospect in Iron
county did not present itself as an
encouraging one, for, after making
a few remarks, Mr.. Mccoy hurried
away on the 1920 train.
A representative from the bridge
and building department of the
railroad company was here last
week and announced that the ma
terial had been ordered for IRON
toms new depot, and work thereon
would soon begin. Just possess
your souls in patience, gentle pub
lie. The structure will be built
just south Of the present depot.
James Sutton was convicted in
the circuit court last Wednesday
of burglarizing the depot at Sa-
bula in November, 1904, and
sentenced to three years in the
penitentiary. Bert Brown and
Chas. Dunn, who were charged
with the same offense, were tried
later in the week, Dunn was given
two years and Brown discharged,
the jury spending almost a day in
agreeing.
The railroad company has the
ten trip tickets to st. Louis on sale
at the Arcadia station, but not al
Ironton. This occurs to us as sim
gular. Surely the people who gel
on the train at Ironton have the
same right to ride to st. Louis and
return for $3.50 as those who en-
bark at Arcadia. But the passen-
ger, department has ruled other
wise. The ten trim tickets are on
. sale at Arcadia, but not at Ironton,
