Special Feature Show at Idle Hour
Friday Night,

The management of the Idle Hour
Theatre has arranged for a special
feature film for Friday night of this
week. when they will show the
Battle of Pottsburg Bridge" the
story of a southern girls bravery.
Sensations abound in this thrilling
Civil war picture, and the theme Of
the story is refreshingly new. The
girl was not only brave but striking
ly resourceful. She sets fire to a
bridge on which a terrific military
engagement Is taking place. There
are no illusonary smoke effects in
this contlagration as the bridge is
destroyed. The fleeing soldiers dive
into the water and the battle is re-
sumed. The picture is decided
innovation and will have to be seen
to be appreciated. 1t will be shown
only one night, Friday Of this week,
so don't fail to see it.

County Seat Fight Is On.

Ben Reeves and Chas. Burris, of
Ridgeway, were in town Saturday
circulating a petition to the County
Court, asking that the people be
allowed to vote on the question OF
moving the county seat from Bethany
to Ridgeway.
Representatives from Ridgeway
we understand, were sent to every
township in the county that day with
petitions. The petition was very
largely signed and we presume that
the question will be submitted to
the voters at the general election.
This opens the fight which will be
waged until election day. The all
absorbing question is What will
Bethany do?" the presumption being
that she will do as Ridgeway did
offer a bonus to have the court
house built in that town.-Caines-
vile News.

Struck A Hog.

C. r. Turner, rural mail carrier
on route No. 2, says that he has
struck many road hogs since he has
been carrying the mails, but last
Friday he struck the first real hog.
He was bowling along at lively
pace on his motorcycle, and when
near the residence of Mrs. Patrick
Flynn, big hog jumped out of the
weeds at the side of the road,
squarely in front of the MOTORCYCLE,
and in a second there was one grand
mixup of hog, motorcycle, mail and
mail carrier, Runkle landing on his
head something less than a hundred
feet away. His head, shoulder and
left arm was badly bruised and skim
ned up, but he finished his trip that
day. Saturday he was so sore and
stiff he could not make his route
and J. NJ. Still carried the mail.
