A LETTER FROM CANEY

Caney, Ark, March 20.
Editor Nevada County Picayune:
| have been reading 50 much
about the storms ard cyclones of
late, and how our State has been
appropriating so much money to
the sufferers, that want to say
something in regard to our own
people right here in our own
county. The same storm that
demolished Brinkly went clear
across our county. not only blow
ing down fencing and timber but
houses as well. 1t struck Jack
son township in the southwest
corner, travelling across the town.

The first one it hit was William
Haynes, colored, demolishing

members their actual

pay the members their actual
travelling expenses, instead of
the present plan of paying ~
cents a mile, going and coming.
This is clearly excessive, for it
can not cost that much for travel
with railroad fare at 3 cents a
mile, even including Pullman
and dining car service.
But it is likely to meet with
the same fate as did the sug-
gestion offered by Congressman
Ollie James of Kentucky, that
members of Congress ought to
be locked when they are absent.
James got a little notoriety out
of it, and then it was forgotten,
1t is not expected that Con-
gress will vote itself any less
emoluments than it is already
receiving.
Evenin Arkansas, the men,
bers of the Legislature are paid
10 cents a mile, coming to the
Legislature ard returning from
it.
That is 7 cents a mile more
than it cost.
But no one has suggested that
it be reduced, or that the men,
bers' actual expenses be paid,
instead of this excessive amount.

PLANS FOR 6. 2.
 HOSPITAL AWAITED
New Institution When Com pleted Will Do Credit to
 Warren District

At the Copper Queen hospital yes terday it was said that plans and specifications for the new hospital building were being prepared at New York and that there would be nothing particularly definite to announce un- til those plans shall have been reeeiy- ed here.
 In this connection it was said that the outlines of what is wanted were made out here and sent on to New York. In tie specifications as prepar- ed here it was stated that it was de- sired that the new building should contain three wards. each capable of caring for twelve to fourteen patients and that there should be between a dozen and twenty private rooms, be- sides ample office accommodations, operating rooms and all the other ac- commodatons which go to make the up to date hospital. These are pro vided for in the plans sent to New York from which the final plans are to be prepared and these final plans will undoubtedly furnish what has been asked for.
 For some time past the hospital has been considerd by the company as inadequate for what they require and desire and the new hospital will be one which will be a credit to War ren district and in fact all of the ter ritory.

WARREN FUTURE IS BRIGHT Business Boom Surely Coming To Pretty Suburb With
 Autumn
ELEVEN MERCHANTS ARE
 SEEKING FOR LOCATION

Warren iooxs good. This clean city seems to be facing a business boom. and by fall it-may be expected to start. even if by that time it is not well under way.
 Jesse Yoakum yesterday stated lO a Review reporter that the Warren company was receiving many aprli- cations from parties who desire and will make arrangements ,o embark in business in Warren. There are now two business houses and pub lie restaurant. These two business houses are a drug store and Q Sro- cery.
 One of the most important appiica- tions which the company has Is tOi a large general merchandise store. This application is conditioned oniN on one point. Ii there shall be an other grocery store started, for which there are two applications. then this proposed new store will not carry groceries, but will handle a large lide of dry goods and mems and women s clothing.
 Other applications besides that for general store, and the grocery stores mentioned above are two each for bakeries. butchers. barbers and bil- Hard rooms. Or these only one will be located in each line Of business. Thus there are eleven applications and practical certainty of the open ing up of at least six new business houses in Warren the coming fall.
 Many new residences are planned and there Is a constantly increasing demand for homes in this neat littls town

In a conference held yesterday be- tween Mayor Neale and Sanitary Of ficer Elliott, the project of giving the city thorough cleaning was freely and favorably discussed. What seem ed to be decidedly obvious to the officials is the condition of the streets and alleys where rubbish evidently reigns supreme.
 According to an estimate of the Mayor. the cost of thorough cleaning campaign would be il the neighbor. hood of s400, but in his estimation, it would be money judiciously spent. At present considerable difficulty would be encountered in the securing of teams with which to carry on the work, but as soon as this disadvan- .age has been overcome. the matter will quite probably be placed before the coanch for it's sanction.
