Fruit trees for sale. Faulkner Co Nursery, Vilonia, Ark.-w9tf
M. A. WOOLLY.

On Tuesday morning, January II, the angel of death took away one of cur best and most respected citizens, Martin Alfred Woolly. He came here only three years ago, but because of his quiet, unassuming life, noble character and dealings in general with his fellow men, he at once gain ed the respect and admiration of all who came in touch with him.
 Alfred Woolly was born near Greenbrier, in Faulkner county, Ark, August 6, 1853, having lived there until three years ago, when he came here to look after the farming inter- ests and other affairs which he had in this part of the country.
 In January, 1883, he was married to Mary Caroline Blessing. They lived happily together for eight years until her death. Mr. Woolly never married again. He reared his chil- dren himself, making many beautiful sacrifices for them-they being his only idols.
 He was interested in education and good citizenship. He taught his chil- dren by his own freside, toiled dili- gently, and managed economically that they might be kept in school. He was a man of high ideals and noble Inspirations. We will miss him. We regret very much to lose him from our citizenship.
 He is survived by one son and one daughter-W. w. Woolly of Lula, who attended Hendrix College at Conway, Ark, for several years, and Mrs. Alice Hendrickson of Bartles- vile, Okla, his younger daughter, Fife Myrtle Woolly, having died at Central Baptist College, Conway, Ark, in 1906, while a student in that institution. He also leaves one broth CT, J. A. Woolly, Sr., of this place.
 He was laid away here Friday aft ernoon with Odd Fellow honors, lodges from Lula, Tupelo and Stone wall taking part. The end was un- expected, he being sick only few days with la grippe, which turned in- to pneumonia. It came as quite shock, even to the family, he being otherwise in a remarkable good state of health-Stonewall (Okla.) News.

CITY COMMITTEE
 MEETING CALLED
TO FIX PRIMARY DATE
CHAIRMAN ISSUES CALL FOR MEETING ON THURSDAY,
 JANUARY 27.

From Fridays Daily
 Acting Chairman J. H. Bailey of the City Democratic Central Commit tee today issued a call for meeting of the committee to be held on Thurs day evening, January 27, 1916, at 7:3O D. m., for the purpose of or ganizing the committee and fixing the date for the biennial municipal prl- mary election. The meeting will be held in the mayors office.
 Since its election two years ago the committee has held no meeting and stherefore without officers, but MT. Bailey was chairman of the old con- mittee and is member of the new, and was requested to issue the call. The committee is composed of three members from each ward, as follows
 First Ward-B. T. Deal, c. E. Dur ham and Frank E. Robins.
 Second Ward-H. B. Ingram, Frank Farris and B. l.. Harton.
 Third Ward-J. H. Bailey, V. D. Hill and E. w. Rogers.
 It is probable that some date either late in February or early in March will be selected for the primary, as this has been the customary time fol several elections in the past. Two years ago the committee arranged for a second primary, or "run-otf" fol candidates receiving the highest num- Der of votes but failing to receive a majority in the first primary. Mayor Jones received the nomination on the first primary, and Marshal w. Il Canadas nearest opponent withdrew making the second primary unneces sary. The regular election of city officers will be held on the first Tues day in April, and at this time the nominees of the Democratic part! will be formerly elected.
 Whether or not the recent decision of the city council to pass an ordi nance making radical changes in th' salaries of officers will make any diff ference in the candidates could not bt ascertained, but so far there have no announcements of withdrawal! from any who have been mentioned as candidates. J. L. McNeese, can didate for marshal, said today tha he would continue in the race, as ht felt that he would be qualified to holC the position of marshal and stree commissioner also. Several other. have been mentioned for both mayor and marshal, but few definite an nouncements have been made. St far no candidates for aldermen have appeared and little interest is showr in city politics. With the meeting of the committee, however, municipa politics will likely become active ant it may be stated with degree of cer tainty that there will be sufficien number of candidates to fill all the positions.

 County Surveyor B. G. Wilson is at work on two new large maps of Faulkner county, which he hopes to have complete within the next 60 days. One of the maps will show the boundaries of all the school districts in the county and will be of great val ue, as so many changes have been made in these districts in recent years that doubt exists as to the boundary lines in many instances. The other map, which will be drawn on scale of one and one-half inches to the mile, will show all political township lines, roads, streams, villages, etc. It will also be valuable acquisition to the county, as no map of the county has been prepared since the one now in the office of the county clerk, which was drawn by J.
