troublesome one, as an ample supply

Schools.
State Supt. Stetson has sent out to SUI
periptendents Of schools throughout the
State circular calling attention to the
new law requiring towns to furnish flags
for all schools. The law, which was
passed by the last legislature, reads as
follows:
1t shall be the duty of superintendents Of
schools to report to the municipal officers OF
cities, towns and plantations, all schools
within their Jurisdiction without flags. and
it shall be the duty Of said municipal Officers
to furnish flags to all such schools, to be paid
for by said municipalities. These flags are
to be used in all schools for the education Of
the youth Of our State, to teach them the
cost, the object and principles of our govern
ment. the great sacrifices Of our forefathers,

Bucksport woman is authority for the
statement that Saturdays snowstorm is
not unprecedented. Sixty-two years ago
on the same date, she says, there was
snow enough on the ground for good
sleighing, and the reason she remembers
it is because she attended funeral on
that date, and went to the cemetery in q

THE SPRING RIVER BRIDGE.
Commissioners Empowered To Advertise
For Bids Immediately.

Ben N. Yates and ex-Sheriff
George r. Hall, who were ap-
pointed several months ago as
commissioners to select a site for a
bridge across Spring river at
Williford, made their report to
the county court this week, which
report recommended that the
bridge be put up at the present
ford of the river at Williford.
Judge Kelley approved the re-
port of the commissioners. and
ordered them to advertise at once
for bids for the construction. The
citizens Of Williford have con-
tracted for a new steel bridge
from the Frisco railroad company,
paying 81, 900 for the same out OF
their own pockets. In this con-
nection, it is said that the rail-
road company may take the con-
tract for putting in the bridge,
and accept county scrip in pay
ment, In this case, it is said the
railroad company would not put
this scrip on the market, but
would hold it to meet their Sharp
county taxes. The railroad COM
pany uses from 81, 900 to 81, 800 in
scrip each year in paying its
taxes in this county.

Representative Andrews has
introduced a bill in the legisla-
ture changing the boundary line
between Sharp and Independence
counties. The bill seeks to add
part of Independence county,
lust south of Cave City, to this
county.
Last Sunday morning at Will
! liford Walter Wilburn and Rufus
ellis engaged in a personal
encounter and Gills was seriously
cut with a knife. Wilburn was
placed under arrest and taken to.
Hardy for safe keeping until his
preliminary trial.
J. R. Kirkland, one Of the best
citizens of Reed, was a visitor to
town Wednesday, and while here
made his annual contribution to
our treasury. Mr.. Kirkland and
Tom Norris of Poughkeepsie are
the commissioners to select a site
for bridge over lower Straw
berry, but the presentation OF
their report has been postponed
until the next term OF the county
court.
The editor of this paper is in
receipt of a letter from Hon. E.
B. Andrews in which he says he
is becoming tired of the fuss of
the legislature and that he would
like to come home and plow some.
Doubtless very few members OF
the legislature can honestly ex-
press such a sentiment, Byron
is fearful that he is not going to
get all his bills up and passed
before the adjournment.
In the county court Monday
several citizens of school district
No. AZ, which lies just north OF
Ash Flat, presented petition
asking that that district be an.
l nexed to the Ash Flat district
Several citizens Of district A
were in the court opposing the
petition, and both sides were rep.
resented by attorneys. After
taking the testimony Judge
Kelley refused to grant the petit
, ton for annexation.
At the recent term Of the Izar(
circuit court at Melbourne the
, costs incurred in the trial of San
Askew in that county in 1905, or
, a change Of venue, was adjudget
against Sharp county, and in thC
comfy court here this week thi:
cost was allowed. Askew is now
: serving a term Of five years ir
the penitentiary for the killing o
a young man named Hollowa!
near Ash Flat, The total cost 0
the case to this county is S451.
