saying that five years ago he saw
two women killed and their bodies
dismembered along the Chattahoo-

the murders were committed by two
men and two women and that he
withheld the story on account Of

ners at the Parco hotel are proving
TO be very popular with the public.
1t Is undoubtedly n real treat to be
able to dine in such a finely and
eXcellently appointed dining room
especially when these features are
augmented by an indispensable
menu. perfect service and music by
Parco's famous orchestra.
Many people from the surround
ing towns are making IL a practice
TO drive to parco for dinner on these
evenings. The Fisers are bending
every effort to please all the guests
and the many complimentary re-
marks that have been heard In con-
nection with these affairs assure them
that they are pleasing the many
patrons.
Efforts are being made TO arrangc
dinner dances to occur several times
during the month and IL is probable
that they Will be held on Wednesday
evenings unless some other time
more favorable to the general pub
lie a be arranged.

GOOD HEADWAY

The large force of men now in the
employment of the Parco Develop
ment work are pushing the improve
ment work in Parco along at a rapid
gate. All the new trees have beer
set out and many additional lawns
and gardens have been layed out and
planted. The laying of new side
walks, water, gas and wv lines are
well under way and should be COM
pleted within a short time, to those
parts of the town in which residences
have been built. New streets and
lots have been layed out and it is
expected that the development work
on these extended districts will be
under way shortly. The two blocks
of park between the hotel and depot
are almost completed. Particular
stress has been layed on the develop
ment of this area that it might be
completed at the same time that the
depot was ready for use and from
all indications both will be in use
by the first of July if not before.
Work on the construction OF the
passenger and freight depots Is max
ing excellent Roadway and plans for
the moving of the railroad and ex-
HANoo bAAAAto lAbAh lLtAI PRESENT

until the water, gas and sewer lines
have been layed to that vicinity in
which the houses are located. A
three apartment three room apart
ment house is well under way and
should be completed within the next
two weeks.
All indications point towards a
busy summer in Parco with the ac-
complishment of a great deal OF de-
velopment work. Streets are con-
stantly being graded and graveled.
the laying of sidewalks and the many
other improvements viii put Parco in
excellent shape for the coming year
and make 1t one of the most beauti-
full and desirable towns In southern

meet Parco on the formers home
grounds next Sunday afternoon.
In the game against Superior the
on Cans got away to a slow start and
1t was not until the sixth inning that
the score was tied 6 to- 6 when Parco
rang up three scores. At the begin
ming of the seventh Powell relieved
Boam in the box and successfully
held the Superior boys scoreless
from hat time on. In the ninth
Turner came to the front when he
clouted out a home run with two
men on bases. Earlier in the game
Sykes of Parco connected for a round
trip making the only two home runs
during the games played. The Oil
Cans connected with Lesser for fifteen
hits while the Superior boys gather
ed but twelve.
In the game against Green River
on Sunday Powell took the box for
Parco and pitched a great game al
lowing only four hits and kept the
home plate from being crossed but
once. One of the great features of
this game was the errorless support
given Powell by his teammates. There
was not one error committed-the
first time that the Oil Cans have sue
ceeded in delivering such an excel
lent brand of ball.
