the sun shines bright to-day. Let
it shine, but not as hot as usual.
Gus Funk raised a fine crop of
millet, and cut it just as the rains
began falling two weeks ago. A
large part of it is spoiled.
MI. Editor, there is a big meet
ing going on here on Holiness and
Sanctification, with Bro. Seal, of
Des Arc, in the pulpit, giving all
that is just and due to sinners
to flee the wrath to come before
it is too late. There are about
eight more preachers here from
East st. Louis and Granite City.
They have been preaching a week
or more, in the language of the
unknown tongue, and call them
selves -. For myself, | have
not heard any ofthem preach, but
they are all nice, genteel, men and
have several ladies with them that
are beauties and look like angels.
They are said to be fine singers
and good musicians. They make
music with banjo, violin and
horns. There will be no rotten
eggs thrown as we have the praise
of having the best set of young
men along the Iron Mountain
railroad. Some m%iscreant stole
Bro. Seals grip from the church
house last Friday night. 1t con-
tanned a watch, five books, etc.
1t was returned to the church Sat.
urday afternoon all 0. K, after a
search warrant had been placed
Ia the hands of d. A. Worley.
Bro. Wallace, of Williamsville,
and Parson Summers, of Poplar
Bluff, are in town to-day on their
way homo from the association on
Black RIVER, in the Mann settle
ment, by Missionary Baptists.
They report a good time. John
Dunn accompanied them this far.
Several people from here attended
the meeting and report a good
time.
VIM. Sutton is running the An
napolis saw mill at its full capac-
ity and has lots of logs. Some of
the pine logs measure 80 inches
in diameter, which shows that
there is still some timber near
here.
Sam Warner, of Reynolds coun-
ty, shipped three car loads of cat
tie from this place last night and
has about four more cars to ship
If he comes out all right on this
shipment. He is a hustler and a
friend to the needy and we wish
him good luck.
T. P. Fitz is in town to-day
on business but there is no hub
timber taken up here and the most
of the haulers are going to work
their timber into ties pretty soon,
if not taken up and paid for.
Our school is progressing nicely
under the management of two
lady teachers.
The st. Louis Times tells us that
John l. Marshall, Sheriff of Iron
county, was held up and robbed
OF S35 the past week in st. Louis.
John, you ought to visit .Annapo-
lis, and you would not get robbed
here.
John Walls is moving up near
Potosi, and getting ,out where he
can draw a long breath without
charges preferred against him.
George Walls has gone ahead to
make arrangements for his broth

Most Of the hunters are secur-
ing q license. some say they
will make a test of it and a test II
will be to those who do not abide
by the laws. After paying out SIS
or 1870, 1.-THE test will be told, and
my advice to them would be to get
your papers to-day, for tomorrow
may be too late.
John Webb has gone to Rey-
nolds county to look after his farm
and to buy cattle and hogs to ship
the last of the week.
The auditing of the official
books is all the talk here now,
but it is not believed to be right
for Edgar and Foard to have any
more to do in that capacity, as the
second parties have made q true
audit of said books. Yes, In their
minds they have, I guess.
