Mr. Brune, employed in the tailor
ing establishment of C. J. Saenger
was recognized on the street Sunday
by Miss Thereee Barker, who plays
one of the leading parts with tie
Olympia Opera Company, as her
uncle. As it had been six years since
the uncle and niece had seen each
other, it was a great pleasure to them
both to thus run across each other.
ROUTE OF WHITE RIVER ROAD
The best we can gather concerning
the railroad situation is as follows,
says the Yellville Echo. The line has
been practically agreed on from Geo.
Creek on west up Big Sugar Orchard.
The line from Buffalo City to the
mouth of George’s Creek is not fully
decided on. The survey made by
Mr. Abbott from Buffalo City to the
mouth of George’s Creek via Onset
will be completed this week. Also
two tunnels will be surveyed this
week. One from Lake’s Ferry across
to Crooked Creek and the other from
Lake’s Ferry over to Fallen Ash.
Also a new crossing on White river
will be examined between Buffalo and
the mouth of Crooked Creek.
Mr. Rohwer, the chief engineer,
will be in Yellville the last of this
week when the route from Buffalo
City to the mouth of George’s Creek
will be finally decided on. In either
event it is pretty safe to buy you a
town lot in Yellville. However, the
Dodd City people claim to have posi
tive information that Mr. Merri
weather has been again employed to
locate the line via the Lee’s Mountain
route. One thing is certain the road
is going to split Marion county wide
open.
HOXIE YARD IMPROVEMENTS.
H. L. Page, foreman of construction
in the Iron Mountain yards at Iloxie
has had his hands full the past week
placing the turntable in position.
This mammoth piece of steel is 70 feet
in length and weighs 70 tons. It is
the very latest improved of the up
to-date turntables and sits on a ped
estal having ball-bearings. Within
ten days the roof will be put on the
round house. The round house will
contain fifteen engine stalls, and
making concrete pits for the engines
to stand over is what has taken so
much time. The walls of the pits are
about five feet high, are wider and
larger than an engine, and being of
solid concrete it will be seen that the
job was a big one. The lower yards
are a model of modern improved
yard facilities, there being from 12 to
15 tracks, 3,000 feet long all connect
ing with the outside track, which
semi-circles around the entire track
age. The coal chutes are progressing
rapidly. > The Iron Mountain road has
left nothing undone in making the
Hoxie yards the best and most com
plete of any yards in the south.—
Lawrence County Blade.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.
An opinion was handed down Sat
urday afternoon by Justice Wood of
the state supreme court in the case of
Sallie Spott Rankin versus Octavia
Schoflel a appealed from the Wood
ruff chancery court, reversing that
judgment and remanding the cause
for trial, with directions to transfer to
law docket. Gustave Jones of this
city was the attorney for appellant.

THE GREAT WALLACE CIRCUS.
The Great Wallace Show, which is
to exhibit in this city for the first
time in its history, recently visited
Columbus, Ohio, where the excellence
of the show pleased big crowds. The
Columbus Journal said:
“Columbus had ideal circus weather
Friday, and the Great Wallace Shows
gave the citizens an ideal circus en
tertainment. The general verdict of
the thousands of people who had the
pleasure of witnessing the exhibitions
in the afternoon and evening is that
the Wallace shows are in the front
rank of first-class tented entertain
ments, and as caterers to the amuse
ment-loving public the management
is in a class by itself.
“At the afternoon performance the
big tent was filled to its capacity.
But all records were broken at the
night exhibition. The rush was so
great that it became necessary to close
the doors twenty minutes before the
performance began and fully 4,000
people were refused admission. That
the large crowd was greatly pleased
with the performance was shown by
the hearty applause which greeted
every nutnber on the long program.
The Great Wallace Show will ex
hibit in Newport on Tuesdaj7, No
vember 4.
