Will Soon StTing Wire.
The wire which is to be used in
the villa ce for the electric lights has
arrived and the workmen will begin
s'rir.ging it Monday and continue un
til the work is completed. It is hoped
that by that time the wire for the
line f;om the intersection of the Lou-isviiie-Weeping
Water line will ar
rive so that the line can be put
through. Tt is thought that in the
conrse of a ; hort time the matter of
lights in Murdock will be a reality.
In oriier to gc-t the electric lights into
Murdock cv the road running east
Scl hrom the north pe.rtioii-of town, it
va- fourd neresary to have the
rc--s chopped down west cf Mr. Pa'
