OLD DEED IS FILED.

A state land deed made by VIM. R.
Miller to J NJ Jolly in 1859, was filed
for record with County Clerk j. H.
Hartje yesterday. The deed conveys
the northeast quarter of section Is,
township 6, range 13 in this county,
for a consideration of $22.62, the sale
having been made at public auction.
This is at the rate of about Is cents
per acre, which was probably the mar
ket value of unimproved land in this
county at that time.

WHY STREETS OF
CONWAY ARE BAD

1t has come to my knowledge that
my opponents or their friends are
using the bad conditions of the streets
as basis for an attack on my admin
lstration and my candidacy for may
or. | freely admit that the streets are
bad, but no one familiar with the
facts could truthfully blame me for
their condition. In the first place, I
have had nothing to do with the
streets since June, 1910, when the
council took the street improvement
work out of my hands. In the second
place, there has been no money avail
able for this work, for the reason that
the council appropriated the funds to
rehabilitate the city's electric light
plant, which had fallen into such a
state of bad repair that it would not
have been possible to continue it's op-
Grafton unless this was done. In the
third place, it would have been a
waste of money to have worked on the
streets along which water mains were
laid during the past year, as the ex-
cavations and leaky pipes would have
made it necessary to do all the work
over again in short time. In the
fourth place, the present winter has
witnessed the greatest amount of
rainfall and the severest freezes for
many years, which has had much to
do with making the streets impassa-
bic. | assume the responsibility for
any act of mine during my admins
tration, but l should not be criticized
for matters over which have no con-
troll.

SONG RECITAL AT
CENTRAL COLLEGE

Central College on last evening
gave another rich treat to the people
.of Conway, as well as to the patrons
of the school, in the song recital given
by Miss Eleanor Stevenson, the voice
teacher, assisted by Miss Allie Merle
Conger, pianist, Miss Jess Candee
Archer, accompanist, and Prof. w. G.
Utermoehlen, 'cellist.
The auditorium and balcony were
well filled with an enthusiastic audi
ence. The first number with Miss
Conger at the piano, Miss Archer at
the organ and Prof. Utermoehlen as
'cellist, was indeed joy to the art
st. This number, MY Redeemer,"
by Gounod, is beautiful symphony,
III which Mss Stevenson was at her
very best. She also sang beautifully
cycle OF songs, Loves Epitome,"
ond four ballads, including "The Irish
Grip and The Birth of Morn"
Miss Allie Merle Conger rendered
Nocturn in z, opus So, number by
Chopin, and tallad No. by the same
composer, during which numbers the
aud -enca sat entranced, as they al
ways do when listening to this young
artist.
Miss Stevenson sang the last num-
Der, al Bacio" with so much of the
spirit of the Italian that the listen
ers felt they might have been listening
to the native singer.
Altogether it was rare treat and
the entire audience felt greatly in
debted to President Conger and his
artistic faculty.
