VIM. Gross, who is employed in
the grocery department. of the
Wright-D Dalton Bell-Anchor store
at Poplar Bluff, visited Ironton
friends on the 4th. We are glad
to hear that he is doing well.
Some cherries were imported
last week. First to be seen this
season. Years ago cherries were
just as certain in this community
as the season came. Now they
are most rare. Why this change?

MI. Damron denies the allega-
ton made in this paper last week
that his horse ran away. He in
sists that his horse would not run
away under any circumstances.
Certainly not. Mr.. D. swaps
horses too often to have an animal
that would run away. W. take it
back.

The Supreme Court last Satur-
day affirmed the finding of the
Iron county circuit court in the
Emerson will case In construct
ing the will the lower court said

wife, should go to the heirs of the
latter.
John Thomas and Henry ig-
neaux, of. Graniteville, against
whom recent grand juries found a
numberof indictments for the lie
gal sale Of liquor, we're before the
circuit clerk last week and gave
bond for their appearance at the
October term of circuit court. R.
G. Knight, of Arcadia, also gave
bond on two or three charges.
The statute requiring all trains
to stop at county seats, on request
went into effect ten days ago, but I
am told the st. LSuis Iron Noun
tain is not needing it. This is
wrong, and a wrong with no ex-
cuse. Ironton is the only county
seat on the line between Bismarck
and Poplar Bluff. 1t seems to me
to be poor policy to chuck agin''
a legal requirement SO moderate
as is the statute in question.
Ironton was crowded on the 4th
and the picnic was largely attend
ed. 1t was an ideal picnic day
hot, dry and dusty. Father Adrian
made a most appropriate and hap
by address. The game of ball be-
tween Frankclay and Bismarck for
a purse of $50 was holly contested,
the latter nine winning in a score
of IL to 10. The horse show was
pulled off according to programme
and results will be printed next
week.
