to the other has to travel 500 miles
via the mail route.
Baxter county is coming to the
front as IS evidenced by the interest
some Chicago parties are taking IN
the Lithia Springs which are located
in that county. Capitalists from
Chicago have been interested in the
springs, and that it is probable that
within the next thirty days a com
pany will be organized with capi'
tai stock of from SO, 600 to $780,
600. This will mean that the coun-
tv will receive more money and
more benefits in every way. Mr'
Swinhart is shipping large quantl-
ties of this water all over the coun-
try, but with increased capltallza-
tion the springs will be thoroughly
advertised, and they will be ship
ping barrels then to where they are
now shipping gallons.-Cotter

ccived some painful injuries about
the face few nights ago while

neck, and the animal refused to be
driven and began to rear and pitch

1t is reported in railroad circles
that the Fred Harvey Company will
leave ]onesboro since the burning
of the building that was occupied
by them along the railroad tracks.
1t is stated that owing to the trains
most all having recently put on
dining car service, that only few
of the best trains now take meals
in Jonesboro. The city and trans
lent trade have kept up the house
for the past several months but is
not sufficient to pay to maintain it
there.
