was buried in South Royalton, where he
passed the most of his life. He had been
a resident of StrsiFord for the past IL
years, marrying his second wife here,
with whom he lived about three years,
when she died and was buried by the
side OF her first husband in Tunbridge.

for with as tender and loving a service
as any own daughter could have rem.
dered, although no obligation, other than
that of love, rested upon her who saw
him through, and followed the remains
to their last resting place. The funeral
service took place ON Saturday at the
home. Rev A. ]. Eastman officiating,

THEIR MUTUAL PURPOSE.

Cupid went shopping and bought
A yard of moonlight and a kiss,
A loving glance. a tragic sigh
And two bright tears to 90 with this.
a maid went shopping and she bought
A cunning gown all made Of lace,
A rose-crowned hat parasol
With which to shade her dainty face,
The maid and Cupid CHANGED TO meet;
He asked Che maiden what she sought,
And she was curious to know
The use Of all the things he bought.
But neither would an answer give,
But straightway from each other ran,
For both were buying things TO trap
The same poor, unsuspecting man.

Soliciting Committee for the Park Meet.
 ing With Success.

The committee, composed of Mrs. Sam o. Logan and Miss Ruth Moncrief, selected by the ladies to raise funds for improv- ing the park, made their first eff fort yesterday afternoon, and se- curedover S130.OO.
 As not half of our people were seen, this is very encouraging, and precludes any possibility of a doubt but that the citizens of Prescott are terribly interested in Park improvement, so much so that we believe several hundred dollars will be secured for the purpose of beautifying the place. The ladies will continue their solicits until every one is seen; and probably afterwards series of entertainments may be given to increase the fund.
 Prescott has done nothing in it's history that so represents a progressive spirit, as is this last move to make pleasure resort out of that 8 acres of waste land 
 lying east of the railroad.

 In the House yesterday after noon, MT. Ard called up his skat- ing rink bill, which was the tar get for number of amendments and exemptions. As the bill was sent to the expressing clerk, it includes every county in the state and prohibits the operating of skating rinks in the state. Mr. Ard is making zealous battle for the passage of his bill in it's original form.
 Very little was done in either branch of the legislation this morning, except the passage by the Senate OfIIOuse Joint ReSOlu- tion Mo- $ which provides for a poll tax receipt as a qualification tOvote. The resolution now only awaits the signatureof thegovern- or in order to have it commit ted to the voters of the state at the next general election.

The ladies and the children of the public school did not meet at the park this afternoon, for the purpose of cleaning up the grounds.

Truck Farming.

That there are many ways of making money is evident by a causal observation, but probably few things pay better in propor- tion than truck farming, pro- vided the eXtensiveness of the business does not exceed the de mands of the trade.
 Mir. Ed Gee probably has ad- vantages in disposing of this pro- duct that everyone can't expect. This season he has already sold over S60.0O worth of vegetables from a garden less than 1-4 acre in area, and will get that much more, besides two more crops can be raised before fall on the same ground.

Little Rock, April 19.-The Senate was called to order this morning by President Moore and Senator Mcdaniel was called to preside for the day.
 Immediately after reconvening yesterday afternoon the Senate resumed the consideration of Senate Bill No. IA Harrison), providing for the establishment of State Veterinary Board and requiring all practitioners to se- cure licenses. Senator Carlock was opposed to the bill on the ground that as any farmer was capable of tending to the ailments of his horses and cattle it was unnecessary to set loose a swarm of veterinary surgeons to prey on the farmers of the state" On roll call the bill was passed by a large vote
 The Hill house bill providing for the establishment of the Cache Levee District in Clay county was amended in the up- per house by Senator Browning so as to embrace several thous- and more acres than-was original ly intended.
 On motion of Senator Harrison the Patterson bill, which provides for the payment of the state guard, and which was defeated last week, was reconsidered and placed on the calender.
 Senate Bill No. 300 Bush-Pat- terson), requiring news associa- tions to serve all newspapers, was called up for a third reading and passed by one vote.
