ACCIDENTALLY
SHOT;HUNTING

Ebert Brundige, married son of
Bud Brundige, living in the vicinity
of Latham, was painfully shot
while hunting with Julius Winstead,
son of Sam Winstead, on Monday
afternoon.
The gun of Winstead was acct
dentally discharged and Brundige,
who was some 20 yards distant, re-
ceived practically the entire load of
bird shot in the leg, most of them
below the knee. A total of 1873
perforations was counted, and only
three. of the shot extracted, the
Others being embedded so deeply
in the flesh that it was impossible
to get them out. Fortunately, the
man was far enough away for the
shot to scatter and the flesh was
not lacerated.

lockrjaw, resulting from splitting

weeks ago.
The young man was engaged in

ing the fore part of last week he
was considered much better and it
was believed he would recover, but
paralysis set up on Thursday and he
succumbed Sunday night at 8
o'clock. Co.'s was a noble, industri-
GUS young man, devout member
of the M. E. church. He is survived

NJ. D. DUKE BREAKS
A LONG SILENCE

1t has been a matter Of more or
less comment that for the past fif-
teen years Matthew Duke has been
able to maintain his trade without
the use of advertising in the face of
keen competition and liberal ad-
vertising by his competitors, but
he has done it. However, at this
time Mr.. Duke finds himself over
stocked on a declining market,
and has decided to place his entire
stock Of exceptionally high-class
goods on the market at very low
prices. In fact, the knife has been
applied deeply and his page ad in
today's Enterprise tells a story of
wonderful price reductions that you
will be bound to read.

PROFESSIONAL YECG-.
MEN BLOW SAFES.
Peoples Bank and Postoffice
at Dresden Blown. Get Lit
tie Booty for Trouble

What is believed to have been
the work of professional yeggmen
was the work done in Dresden on
Friday night Of last week, when the
vault at the Peoples Bank, situated
on the east side of town, and the
safe at the postoffice, on the west
side, We're blown.
Nothing was taken from the
bank, except a pistol, only the vault
door being blown. But at the post
office some booty was gotten by the
robbers, amounting to $218 in pos
tai funds and revenue stamps and
some blanks, the letter being of no
value.
Citizens Of the town heard at
least one Of the explosions, but paid
little or no attention to it. 1t is
the supposition of many that the
bank was first visited, and that af-
ter the yeggman found they were
foiled there by the burglarproof
safe they concluded to try the post
office and not have their job
come to naught.
A large sledge hammer was taken
from Jones' shop and was used at
the postoffice, where it was found
next morning, and where also was
found a quilt used as a muffler.
This makes the third time in recent
years that the postoffice safe here
has been blown, about the same
amount of booty being gotten each
time.
No trace was left by the robbers
to indicate either which direction
they took in leaving town nor by
what method, whether by foot, au-
tomobile or horse drawn vehicle.

HE DIDN'T BRING
HOME THE BACON

Monte, 14-year-old SON of John
Mann, living just in the edge OF
Martin, was sent to the grocery
there late Saturday afternoon for
some bacon-but he didn't "bring
home the bacon"
There's a reason! Just after
passing the Methodist church, Mon
tie was held up by couple Of big
black niggers Che declares one was
90 tall as telephone pole and the
other as big as an elephant-and we
don't doubt but that they looked
IL to the lad) and commanded to
hand over the bacon. When he at
tempted to argue with them that it
was bacon he was carrying home for
the weeks supply the niggers told
him to stop talking and hand over
the bacon-and it didn't take Mon
tie long to do it.
Just as sure as fate, something
has got to be done to put a stop to
this wholesale stealing.

ST, LOUIS LIVE
STOCK MARKET

AS the result of marked shrink
age IN the available supply, the
trade accumulated much more &C
ton, butcher cattle and mixed stuff
advancing so to 75c while steer
cattle from stocker grades on up to
the choice beef kinds show an ad-
vance of 25 to SOC per hundred
compared with last weeks close.
Beef steers Sc to SIS; feeding
steers $3.50 to $40; stock steers
SIS to So; stock cows 81 to S.;
stock heifers SIS to 1925; yearling
butcher cattle $3.50 to $13; beef
COWS SIS to So; cutters $3.50 to
$3.50; Gamers $3.50 to $3.50; can
ner yearlings $3.50 to 1915; bulls
$3.50 to $3.50.
Hogs-After recording a disas-
ferrous price break the previous
week, due to the unusually heavy
marketing, the market today was
showing a more active turn than
any time this week. Further de-
clines were checked, the market
opening about steady with yester-
days close, a Spectator paying
$3.50 for some prime hogs and City
butchers paying up to $685., but
the trade gained strength toward
the finish, sufficiently so to cause
a good clearance Of the receipts.
This is the lowest market cncoun-
tered lin about five years time.
Bulk Of the 200 pounds up $3.50
to $y.75; 100 to 1870 pounds SO to
$3.50. All weights of pigs $3.50 to
1925; rough packers 1926 to
$3.50.
Sheep--For the most part it has
been an uncertain trade throughout
the week, with prices the lowest in
sometime. This is a condition
brought about primarily by the
Thanksgiving holiday when the de-
mand for mutton stuff is of mea-
gre volume due to the general con-
sumption of poultry and game.
Extreme top on lambs was $1O.75
today, but the bulk of the good
sold around $40 to $1,000, while
fat sheep range from Sd to $3.50.

THANKSGIVING IS
OBSERVED HERE

Business in Dresden was practi.
cally suspended Thanksgiving, the
three banks and the postoffice re-
Gaining closed for the day, except
the postoffice was opened at the
mail hours, and business houses were
open with reduced sales forces.
Many of the young people jour
neyed by automobiles to both Nc
Kenzie and Greenfield to witness
the foot ball games at those towns,
while the small boy, and some of
the larger ones, went hunting.
An appropriate program was car
ried out at the Baptist church and
attended by those rehgiously in
clined. 1t was the first Thanksgiv-
ing service held in quite number
of years, if we mistake not.

BIG SALES ATTRACT
ING LARGE CROWDS
Stores Crowded With Eager
Bargain Seekers and Goods
Being Sold at Low Prices

The several big sales in progress
at the Dresden stores, both dry
goods and hardware and furniture,
have attracted large crowds of ca
ger bargain seekers to Dresden
during the past week, and stocks of
all kinds of merchandise are moving
rapidly.
The crowds on the streets, the
hurry, hustle and hustle for the
past week or more remind one of
the Christmas shopping days, and
yet that period is a month off.
Citizens from long distances have
been observed here taking advant-
age of the low prices being made
by Dresden merchants, and every
vehicle leaving town is loaded with
bundles and packages and box
es, all purchased at extremely low
prices Local merchants were
caught with large stocks and when
the markets declined they began
unloading, giving a long-suf fering
public the advantage of some very
attractive prices, and though one
might think there is little money in
the country, yet this is not true, for
the eagerness with which buyers
gobble up these bargains proves
there is plenty of money in the
country. ..
In times like these, when mer-
chants are reaching out and draw
ing trade from other localities those
merchants of the other communi-
ties are forced to fall in line and
not only meet competition in price
reductions, but make that fact
known through the proper medium
of publicity.

HAYS APPEALS
FOR $1,5OO,OOO

New York, Nov. 24.-An appeal
for contributions to make up a de-
ficit of approximately $1,500,00 in
the campaign fund of the republi-
can national committee was sent
out last night by Will H. Hays, its
chairman.
The appeal, addressed to the
republicans of the country and all
those who aided them," called at
tention to the report Of the COM
mittee's treasurer, filed Monday in
Washington, pointing out that al
though the buying power of the
dollar was materially less than in
1916, the 1920 campaign had act
ually been conducted at less ex-
pense than the Hughes campaign
four years ago.
Mr.. Hayes accompanied his plea
for further funds by an expression
of highest praise for the spirit of
republicans during the campaign.
More than $4,000 individuals con-
tributed about 100000 to the
fund, he said.
The presidential campaign this
year cost approximately $3,4OO,OOO
exclusive Of pre-convention expen-
ditures, he wrote, leaving a net de-
ficit of nearly million and a half
dollars.

THE BIG l6-PAGE
PAPER MAKES HIT

Not only here at home, but even
far away, the big-16-page paper is
sued by the Enterprise last week
seems to have made hit and letters
of congratulation have been pour
ing into our sanctum sanctorum
since last Friday. .. ....
Mr.. C. B. Hicks, manager of the
Memphis branch of the great West
ern Newspaper Union, writes us I'M
der date of Nov. 20:
"That was sure some job you
pulled off this week issuing a 16-
page paper. You are to be con-
graduated on Issuing such a SPLEEN
did publication in so small a town.
An office issuing a 16-page paper
and three large circular jobs all in
one week is certainly to be congrat-
ulated on having produced so much
work in one week and all on time.
The writer takes his hat off to you"
Mr.. J. W. Hedgepeth, for q years
editor of the Lauderdale County
Enterprise, Ripley, writes US under
date of Nov. 20:
"You are certainly living up to
your motto: "A Metropolitan paper
in a Country Town"
Both these writers are newspaper
men Of long experience, and nothing
but appreciation impelled them to
write the Enterprise as above.
Rev. c. L. Smith, man who has
travelled much and observed many
county newspapers, writes as fol-
lows:
"Joe, am enclosing check for
$3.50 for which you will please
send me the good old Enterprise.
I have said it, and now repeat it,
the Enterprise is one of the best
county papers l ever saw. I mean
to say the best paper dependent on
the county for support l have seen
anywhere. I will want to keep up
with the news of Dresden this year,
and the Enterprise will fully meet
my needs"
A thoroughly practical newspaper
man of 25 years experience writes
US from Pocahontas, ILL.,:
"You are certainly to be con-
on the magnificent show
ing of the Enterprise. 1t is indeed
out of the ordinary in
country journalism"
We just thought you might be
interested in knowing what others
;hink of your county paper.
