The First Red Ad.

1t is hardly necessary TO call the
attention of our readers to the
large advertisement Of Mr.. j. Is
ralsky, the merchant, 1t appears
in flaming color that will burn its
way into the consideration of the
10000 people who buy, beg, borrow
and steal the Big Sandy News each
week, This advertisement has the
distinction Of being the first to
be printed in red In the News with
in the twenty-five years of its ex-
istence. The extra cost to the ad-
vertiser is considerable, but he
feels justified in making the out
lay on this occasion because he
has an unusually strong message to
give to the people of this territory
Having been very fortunate in buy
ing an immense quantity OF goods
at fraction of their value he Is
offering them to the public for
quick sale at proportionately low
figures. He promises the largest

which recently acquired 100000
acres of coking coal lands in East
ern Kentucky, a large percentage
of which lies in Letcher county
along Boone's Fork and the head
waters of Elkhorn Creek, makes the
announcement that they will begin
within the next few months one OF
the largest coking coal plants in
the entire South. The exact loca-
ton OF the plant has not yet been
determined, but 1t will be either
on Boone's Fork or the head Of
the Elkhorn, near the center of
The main coal field Thousands Of
hands will be employed in opening
miners houses from the beginning
and millions of dollars will be ex-
pended in developments.
The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
has decided to build from the north
onto the property, distance of
about twenty-five miles, while the
Louisville and Nashville is now
rapidly constructing its line from
the south, up the north fork OF
the Kentucky River both lines OF
which will give ample shipping con-
neetions, The Consolidation Coal
Co.. is not the only company that
will make developments, as there
are other concerns which have a.,
quired large holdings, all Of which
will be developed within the next
twelve months.

We Observed the Day.

The last Thursday In November
found our people in a contented
frame OF mind, willing observe and
give thanks SO on yesterday we
manifested a disposition to go to
church, to abstain from labor, Il
possible, to eat,drink and be thank
fui for what we had and that. as
poor old black Uncle Jim used to
say things is as well with MS
as what they am" The previously
announced church services we're held
the school children had a holiday
and numerous tables were loaded
with the best things OF life. Turkey,
game, oysters, chicken ,roasts, steaks
all manner OF excellent vegetables,
al manner Of relishes and all man
.uer Ut cake, layer cake. sponge
cake, eight egg cake fruit cake,
nut cake, blackberry cake, devil
cake, angel cake and, later stom-
aChachc. ".
The News feels safe in saying
that probably there is not in Lou.
is1 anyone so poor that he could
not on this day OF thanksgiving pro
vide a good dinner for himself and
his family. If there be such and
their condition was known the hos
piulty and generosity of our peo
pie would supply every needed
want, and more.
