John Blake, a good farmer liv

day sold a hog here weighing 540
pounds to a Newport party. The
animal was 21 months old and
brought $35, which is pretty big
money for a porker.

“HER NAME WAS MAUD.’’ !
-- |i
An appointment of unusual in-15
terest this season is the office of
scenic artist and assistant with 1
Messrs. Harris & Hickey’s pro- j ]
duction “Her Name Was Maud.” |l
This is the first time that an ar- j
tist of reputation has ever been j
engaged to travel and keep fresh
the scenery of a theatrical at-;
traction. Mr. Harris has so de- i
vised his transcontinental cam- '
paign for this season that the
presentation of this successful
musical comedy will be mounted
with a completeness of detail
that the most carping critic could
hope to believe.
“Her Name Was Maud” is}
given at the opera house Friday
night, December 9.
TRAIN TO NEWPORT
FROM LITTLE ROCK.
| . v _ i
ThL Independent is reliably in*
fonied that the Rock Island
^ ^whej the schedule is changed on
the 27th of this month will in
augurate a new train from Little
Rock to Newport and return each
day.
This passenger, leaving Little
Rock at 8 a. m., will run over
the main line to Brinkley and
then over the branch to Jackson
port and return to Little Rock in
the afternoon.
Such a train would be a conve
nience to traveling men out of
Little Rock on the main line, for
as it is they have no train from
3 a. m. to 4 p. m. and increase
travel from Lonoke, Des Arc
and De Vails Bluff by way of the
Rock Island to Newport. The
time of the train would continue
to be favorable to the trade in
terests of this city.
NECROLOGICAL.
MRS. C. M. PATRICK.
Mrs. C. M. Patrick of Tupelo,
a sister of the Collier brothers,
died Wednesday morning and the
remains were taken to Augusta

thy of many friends in their be
reavement.
JULANE BEEDE.
Julane Beede, a prominent and
influential farmer of Eight Mile,
died Wednesday afternoon from
pneumonia, leaving a family and
three brothers to mourn his de
mise.
He was a member of the local
lodge of Odd Fellows, a number
of whom attended his funeral at
Eight Mile Thursday. He was a
most estimable citizen, whose
death brings sorrow to many.
GEORGE LEDBETTER.

nesday in Newport and was
