line so as to give him an oppor-
tunity to bpild up a good busi-
ness

A SMALL BABY.
Dallas News: A freak died at
this place yesterday. It was
baby. Its age was five weeks.
The baby was scarcely ten inches
in length, and weighed hardly a
pound and a half. Its color was
a peculiar hlue. It was borp at
tho city hospital. Dr. Armstrong,
the city physician, said that the
baby died from lack of strength to
digest, He said that it was per-
fectly formed in every particular,
CHANGED.
Some people always look fresh and
young, while others look prematurely
old, with skin dried up and wrinkled.
The only difference between the two is
the loss of vitality in the blood. Peo-
ple using Beggs' Blood Purifier anil
Blood Maker always look fresh and
healthy. Sold and warranted by your
popular druggist, W. F. Parkor.
Owing to some misunderstand-
ing it was decided to change the

mouth of Turner Creek to Davis
Park.

Card No. 0,7$2. Exhibi'tor-W. W.
Kimball Co. Extjibit—Keed Organs
Remarks:—I report that this exhibit is
edtitled to an award. The organs ex-
hibited were not made expressly foi
exhibition purposes, but aro part of
the wareroom stock. They are die-
tinguishod for superior construction
high grade quality of material employ
ed, oaiginality and first-class finish
Their tonp, touch and action leave
nothing to be desired. The points of
particular excellency arp as follows:
1. A tacker guido rail, enclosing each
tracker pin separately, and by being
reamed from tho opposite side of the
socket-board, excluding all dust and
dirt from the valves and preventing
sticking. 2. A rqller bar so construct-
ed as to prevent the patting of of the
treadle straps. 3. An eaBily detach-
able organ lid. 4. Aq original device
by which six sets of reeds are placed
over one valve without diminishing the
simplicity or desirability of the organ
as compared with thp ordinary two set
oigans. 5. A graduating sounding
board with rftisei valve seat, givipg a
power and quality rarely obtained in
reed organs. 6. An automatic swell
operated by the opening °r closing of
the lid. 7. A sub-bass, by the use of
which larger scale reeds are employed
in a regular key-bpard scale, thus giv-
ing the power of a heavy sub bass with-
out using tlie sub bass action. 8. Ample
bellows capacity a™1 unusual ease of
of "blowing." All improvements pro-
tected by United States Letters Patent.

DIG UP.
There is a job of digging up to
done and money is tho first thing
to be dug up. Mr. Elbert Jones
and Dr. H. 1'. Lovell have secured
possession of the celebrated Tur-
ner Falls, six miles west of town
and are putting forth their most
earnest efforts to put the place in
as attractive Bhape as possible in
order to make it a summer resort.
To do this the most important
thing is to get the road in con-
dition go that it is safe to drive
over day or night. Everyone
that has the l§ st inclination to
take recreation this summer will
want to thcBe Falls, for it is be-
yond question the most beautifu^
piece of mountain scenery be
tween the Rockies and the Alljf-
ghanies.
We saw letters from parties
who are financially able and say
they will within a few week es
tablish a place of business thej^
and keep whatever there is a de-
mand for, such as lunches, co(d
drinks, refreshments, gir^c^fie?
and sundry articles.
When the road is put fjj p<fD:
dition und these improvements
are madp it wilj be a delightful
resort for our people and a drawT
ing card to strangers. Messrs.
Jones and Lovell ape going to be
gin work Monday and want thp
town to help build the road which
is perfectly reasonable and right.
They mrko no charge for ad?
mission fo the grounds or for pas-
sage over the road, so those whq
expect to reap the benefit shoult)
help in a substantial way. They
are asking each residrnt to donate
whatever he can, let it be a dollar,
five dollars, a side of meat or a
sack of flour. Those v, ho do the
work will camp on thp groun4
and groceries will be an essential.
Messrs. Jones and Lovell have
requested H. H. Allen. A. M
Mitchener snd M. B. Rutherford
to aot as a committee on soliciting
and collecting, and whatever yov(
give to these men will go where
it belongs, Now every person
who expects to use this road is
expected to donate at least a dol-
lar and those who do not use it,
if any such there be, are expected
to contribute because it is a pub
lie improvement and a benefit to
the town. When we come after
you don't have the courage to say
no and let your neighbor foot tlis
bills and you reap the benefit, but
put up and keep o clear couscience,
It is a worthy undertaking and
will succeed and each one wants
the credit for his portion of the
burden.
To any neighborhood that wants
a chapel organ 1 will make them
the lowest possible rate and let
them pay for it at the rate ot live
dollars a month, without note or
interest, and in addition I will
pledge my word to donate every
cent of my commission.
