Planning For Trip

The board of directors Of the board Qt trade held q meeting at their Of ice on Chestnut street Saturday after noon, at which the committee, ap- pointed to make arrangements for the proposed trip. reported. They had planned a trip of 92o miles, going as far dewn the Iron Mountain as Colli
 son, down the Cotton Belt and it's branches as far south as New Lewis vile and as far north as Clarendon. It is intended that the trip shall take in all points tributary to Pine Bluff. 1t is desired to have every business in terest in this city represented, and those which have not already been called on, will be called on by the committee the first part of next week. The committee has already met with great success and they anticipate the hearty cooperation of the business men of this city, as the trip will be greatly to their advantage. The pur- pose of calling on the business men so soon is to make up the party as soon as possible, so they will know the exact size Of the train needed. it's equipment, etc. They will leave Pine Blnff July the ninth at six thirty a. m. They will be absent four days and three nights, returning home at ten D. m., July the twelfth. Every thing indicates that the trip will be of great help to Pine Bluff in a com mercial way. It has not been yet de- cided whether a brass band will be carried or not, but whatever Is done it may be depended upon that the Pine Bluff board of trade will fix up things in the way that they should be done.

the Colony road to Hobbs Hill,

A Relic of the Civil War.

During the civil war firearms
were scarce and some of our citi-
zens resorted to other means and
many were the weapons manu-
featured in those days, one OF
which was known as the yankee
Splitter This was long steel
blade with hilt protected by a
steel spring so that once gripped,
it was difficult to wrench from
the hand. Only few of these
weapons are known to be in ex-
istence. John II. Upton, of
Northcut's Cove, had one and a
few days since presented it to
jeff. d. Fults and it is now in
his office in Tracy City. The
weapon is dangerous one es-
pecially when in close quarters
as many Yankee, no doubt, can
testify.
Geo. B. Elston, representative
of the jamestown Exposition at
Norfolk, Va, called in to see
real yankee Splitter" few
days since and desires to carry il
home with him and have it or
exhibition at the fair next year
Other relic of the late war might
be secured by those interested.
