A Visit to LOngyieW.

On last Sunday afternoon
Messrs. Chas Remley, Hoke Ed
wards and Tie writer { N. d. Cot
ham) We're the guests of Mr.. Ed.
Ahrens on an automobile trip to
IEangview, Ashley county. Long
view is Mr.. Ahrens' old home, he
having been born and reared
there until about twelve years of
of age, when he moved with his
father, Mr.. Henry Ahrens, to
this city, where he has since
resided. The prime object of
the trip was to visit the grave of
his mother where she was buried
about forty two years ago, when
he vas a mere infant, in a little
cemetery jast. this side of that
place, where he had recently had
some repairs made on the fences
and the grounds put in order.
The afternoon was most pleasant
ly spent, the party being highly
entertained by Mr.. Ahrens, who
pointed out and described the
old land marks of that section
and related many incidents that
transpired during his childhood
days, while residing there.
Thirty five years ago Longview
was quite thriving little vii
laga, there being twelve or fif-
teen bu mess houses, a church,
masonic hall, and, perhaps other
institutions in full operation,
but to day there is but one house
on the site of the old town, and
that is occupied by an old color
ed woman, ("Aunt Reeny," who
is known tt all the people of that
section, as she has resided there
for the past sixty years. who is
the only inhabitant of the town
proper. Mr.. Ahrens drove his
car Ca Buick himself, and prov
ed to be an expert and careful
driver, as no mishap occurred
SO mar the pleasure of the after
moons outing.

REPORT OF GRAND JURY
TO THE HON. P. T. BUTLER,
Judge of the Drew Circuit Court.
September Term, 1917

September Term, 1917
We. the Grand Jury, respectfully re-
port that we have now been in SEES
sion seven days, have examined SO
witnesses at a cost to the County of
Drew of S167.90; and have found and
turned into court Is True Bills of
Indictments.
We have made through investiga-
ton and examination of the condition
of the Jail and the manner of keeping
same. We find that the Jail is kept
in a good sanitary condition and from
our best information we think the
prisoners are well cared for. We
recommend that some improvements
be made at the Jail, to-wit:-The
heating plant is in need of repairs be-
fore cold weather, we learn that it
gave very poor service last winter and
will be worse the coming winter if
not repaired; We also recommend that
the sewerage from the Jail be looked
after and made as sanitary as posi-
BILE; we also recommend that the iron
bar that was sawed out be repaired.
We have had committee of COM
posed of members of this body to visit
and investigate the conditions at the
Poor House. This committee reports
that they found that this institution
is kept in a good, sanitary condition,
the inmates expressed themselves as
being we'll cared for We find that
some very necessary repairs and i'm
provements are now being made at the
Poor House and we have no further
special recommendations as to that
institution.
In order to emphasize the recon-
mendations of former Grand Juries in
regard to our Court House: We earn
estly recommend that the necessary
repairs of this building be looked af-
ter as early as possible, especially
the roof which is badly in need of a
new roof. We also recommend that at
least two commodes be installed and
connected with the City Sewerage, and
that the building have a general over
hauling especially in the interior.
We have finished our work, we ask
that we be now discharged. We de-
sire to thank the Court and County
Officials. for their courtesy and as
sistance.

Mo. Pac. to Change Schedule.

Mr.. Walter Lambert handed US,
on Tuesday of this week, a copy
of an Order from the Railroad
Commission of Arkansas, made
on the DIST day of Sept. 1917, in
the case of "Citizens of Monticel-
10, Warren, Wilmar and Arkan-
sas City vs.. Missouri Pacific
Railroad Company in which
the Commission ordered said
Railroad to put into operation,
within fifteen days from the date
of the order, the following sched-
ule:
"No. S45 to leave McGehee at
4 a. M, arrive at Warren, 9:05,

McGehee 500 p. M, arrive at
Warren at IL p. M; train 500 to
leave Warren II 40 p. M, arrive
at McGehee 3 80 a. m.
The above schedule is not put
on by the Railroad managers of
their on volition, but is the one
approved by those of the citizens
who took part in the case before
the Commission, and which was
ordered as allowed stated. The
time for the arrival and depart
ure of trains in and out of this
city is not embraced in the order
and we are unable to give the
Monticello schedule at this time,
but it can be figured approx
imately from the above as
to the time the trains
will be due here. Whether
the change will prove benefi-
cial or detrimental to a majority
of those affected remains to be
seen
