Coal for Sale-A. Rieke & Son
BelIeview Items.

R. E. Johnston last week COM
pleted his store building, east of
town, and has a pretty fair stock
of dry goods, groceries, etc., now
in stock. Belleview now has four
stores, two blacksmith shops, a
sawmill and a frst-class Touring
mill.
Judge w. H. Shy, of Reynolds
county, was in town last week.
Mr.. Shy was looking for a farm
in this valley, as he has an offer
of S $500 for his farm, near Black;
but does not care to close the deal,
until he is sure that he can better
himself, which | very much doubt.
On a recent trip to Graniteville
we notice that work in the quar-
ries was in progress. The men,
who ''struck'' for eight hours, af-
ter being out nearly two months,
were put to work at the eight hour
time, with the same wages form
erly paid under the ten hour time.
We are pleased to see bright pros
poets for the coming fall and vim
ter.
Bell and son shipped another
car load of wheat last week.
j. H. Long and Glen Smith
shipped a couple of car loads of
cattle to st. Louis last week.
Those who have extra grade
cattle for sale now, are certainly
in a position to increase their bank
accounts; for never before do we
remember having seen cattle reach
the astounding price of 5000 as
quoted last week.
We are are reliably informed
that DR.. G.. w. Farrar, of Ironton,
last week sold his farm, south of
Belleview, for S13 1000.
Mr.. Johnston, who for several
years lived on this farm, has not
definitely decided what he will do,
but it is very probable that he and
family will remove to California
this coming fall. We certainly
regret to see MI. Johnston and
family leave this valley, and wish
them success where ever they may
go.
j. III. Long and Charley Ed
monds we're in Ironton Saturday
of last week.
James Wood, of Oates, was in

DR.. Eversole, of Caledonia, was
