 Eufaula. Dec. 31.-(Special. )--The scarcity of labor that has so long been complained of in the rural districts Is beginning to effect the city. and com plaintS are being heard on all sides The question of securing servants is growing to be serious. and in one or two instances families here have deter mined to seek boarding houses. Dur ing the holidays especially, ladies have been forced to enter the kitchen and do their own work.
 Mules are fast arriving preparatory to meeting the demands of the farmers who will soon begin to make their ar engagements for the coming year. The demand seems to be for the better class of animals.
 The friends of Captain A. A. Walker. who for years was prominent in the business circles of Montgomery, will be glad to learn that he is now able to be on the streets after a confinement of a month or more to his home.
 M. M. Beringer, for the past thirty years one of the most prominent mer- camille men of the city, is making ar arrangements to leave Eufaula.
 The Red Men of the city will have an interesting social function at their next regular meeting when the install lation of officers will take place. A beautiful emblamatic gift will be pre- sented the Tribe in a formal way, and will be accepted in an appropriate speech, after DEhich refreshments and cigars will be furnished.
 Information has been received here that Ruburn shannon, who was shot In the fight short time before Christ mas below the city, is growing worse, and 1t is not believed he will recover. With two of the participants dead, the affair is regarded as one of the worst in the annals of this section.

Free Library

The patronage of the free library
is increasing considerable, but not
as rapidly as would satisfy the
little hustler, Mrs. 7. T. Parker,
who has the care of our free read
ing matter. Mrs. Parker says that
after the first year, so she learned
at the library meeting last Thurs
day, the Portland library will pay
the feul and light bill for the library
here, IN fact, stamps, envelopes,
paper and all the accessories neces-
sary for the librarian in her work
This will leave nothing but the
room rent for our citizens to pay,
and our enterprising citizens can
easily make that little bunch up
any time. In fact, we believe this
has already been provided for.
