 A Jew here who didn't believe we would be overfiowed after every bip ram, planted cotton, but now they Will have to plant over as soon as the water gets off of their land.
 The water is falling very slowly. but will be gone in about two weeks. IT. lacked about fifteen inches of reach lhg last years mark, but we had enough to do us for good
 About 100 feet of the county bridge that spans FifteenMile Bayou at this place, was washed up-pileing and all and as there is no other route the public will be very much incnnye- nienced if the bridge is not repaired at once.
 Fred Tucker aged 6 years. died on the 2lst inst. He was one of the most highly esteemed colored farmers in this locality.
 Press Jackson, of Sand Ridge. is a hustler from away back. He is the mai carrier from this place south.
 MT. Peterson Jackson has been put ting in considerable time working on eur county bridge, floating it back to It's place, so that it can be repaired without much delay when the water leaves.
 Our new railroad has been washed away for the second time. and will have to be rebuilt. They will just about be able to get into operation by the time or thA next overflow.
 We have just learned that the great City of Hughes, just south of this place, was also oVertloWed to a cCnsid- erable depth.
 Big overtiOws and lots of govern ment uppIies-and then there is noth- ing doing during the high waters but joy riding, You can't hire a laborer to work for neither love nor money. Let the good work go on. and joy be uncontined.
 Some farmers feel good, because. they say, they will be able to plant their crop of cotton in about two weeks: and some think that they will make full crop; but we can't see it that way.
 Jack Dempsey, our deputy sheriff and mail contractor, is having the time of his life trying to save his own life while on some of his trips to the great city of Heth.
 L. L. Dale, merchant at Hughes, was a business visitor at this place Saturday and reports business very dull during the overflow.
 Mrs. Lizzie Stoddard and Mailer Hamby, of Hell Cat Lake, were visit ing at the Thomas home last sunday, returning the same day

 Four mules were attached to it, and he has 80 acres powed. It surely turns the soil and melows the ground.
 Many have expressed their opinion pro and con, but Mir. Grobmyer has faith in deep blowing, and doesn't fear the result.
 Most of his 500-acre farm is seeded in grasses, and creek of pure water crosses through the entire farm, over

 Mr. Grobmyer does not let his chances like sunbeam pass him by" but is on the alert for any and everything of a progressive nature, and takes advantage of it.
 Last winter, while stopping at Car lisle, he noticed a large blow on the platform, and. on inquiry, found it was demonstrating blow, sent by the Rock Island railroad for experi-

 Twenty years ago MT. Grobmyer came to Forrest City,
 He did not believe in that old say ing, "all things come to him who waits," but took off his coat and went after these things instead of waiting for them.
 The old clay hills and hollows, which stood begging, appealed to him, and

Grobmyer tenders, free to the county, all the gravel they can use on the road from Forrest City to Bonair. Now is the time and this the opportunity for the citizens and the county to get a good road cheap.
 Ie scribe enjoyed the hospitality and courtesy Of MT. Grobmyer, and congratulates him upon his success, the story of which is full of hard work, conscientious effort, genialty, liberality and enterprise.

from The Tribune Correspondent
Long Branch. y. j., Dec. Sire this
afternoon wiped out the West End cot
tapes. the Casino and the Hildreth cot
taye causing a loss estimated at $1,000
The origin Of the fire is a mystery. The
cottages had been. closed since Septem-
Der and were i'm charge Of John Alberto
as caretaker. The blaze started In the
roof, and when the fremen arrived It
had gained good Roadway, aided by a
strong westerly breeze.
The series Of cottages. put together and
rebuilt several times, with number OF
cupolas. made a spectacular blaze thai
threatened to extend 10 the New YORK
Club. the Huyler Casino and the cottage
of Mrs. Randolph Guggenhemer. Tho
fremen, however. succeeded in confnins
the blaze TO the doomed buildings.
The cottages were built thirty-one years
ago. and for years were part OF TIE
old West End Hotel. After the hotel WAS
DESTROYED they were sold TO a syndicste
known as the West End Cottages AMI
Casino Company. and costly alterations
were made In the company were Myron

manded from their New York agents. Inc
testimony showed that they had beeh
treated more than generously by the Ne"

II is quite possible that the Currency
bill will be passed by the Senate AT '"o
end of the week. If not. il Will go throus"
early next week. Senator'S on Doth siue'
are anxious to finish with the measure.
The Republicans have become cohNih'o"
that the Democrats will stand irln lo'

debate resembled a committee conference
