The state senate has been making a

firm appointments made by Gov. Hol

there is no good excuse for such arrant

of superintendents or certain state in

to relieve tim from this responsibility,
which it now seems determined to do.

near Klk I'oint, this state, pre-empted
a piece of sandbar in the Missouri and
started to search for the hulk of an
old steamer that was sunk before the
war with a valuable cargo on board,
including one hundred barrels of whis
key and a large amount of farm ma
chinery. After some effort they have
located the vesnel and sunk a shaft to
it. They are clearing the hold and
will take the whisky out as soon as it
can bo reached. It Is the only part of
the cargo that Is expected to be of any
value. The steamer was one of the
best on the river in Its day and was
scuttled when on Ore. The river chan
nel changed before it could be raised,
and tho boat was left buried deep in
the bar.

picked apples and pulled osage orange
plants together for old Drury Overton,

about 1" years old ond I a little older.

when he mounted his horse from the

To our Friends and Patrons:
After due consideration we have
decided to adopt the
Cash
and on and after JAN. 1, 1895,
we will do no more crediting, ex
cept to those whose names are
now on our books and are very
prompt in meeting accounts.
We haY&Sne crej business
for nearly f if teerfy ears and have
profitted but little thereby, the
most of our earnings being on
our books or lost by uncollected
accounts.
By selling for CASH we CAN and
WILL give our patrons the ben
efit of our gains and the advant
ages derived from getting spot
cash by selling them goods
At Redueed Prices.
Of course we shall continue to
exchange goods for country pro
duce. Come in, get our prices
and see how far a dollar will go
these hard times.
