EAILKvjA.^ RUMBLINGS.
NEWPORT TO WEST PLAINS.
E. J. Beard, of Little Rock, who is
assistant chief engineer of the Rock
Island system, is inspecting the route
between West Plains, Mo., and Salem,
Ark. From Salem he will go to the
camp of the engineers in charge of S.
M. Ramsdell and confer with them re
garding the point where it is intended
the survey made by Capt. Clark and
the one now being run by Engineer
Ramsdell shall meet.
On the occasion of his visit to West
Plains several days ago Mr. Beard
gave out the information that the road
would be built and that work on the
line will begin at no distant date. The
survey will be completed within a
month and an estimate cost of the line
between Belle, Mo., and Newport,
Ark., via West Plains, will be made.
So far the estimated cost of the line
made by the engineers as they have
surveyed it is below that to which they
have been limited, Arkansas Demo
crat.

The Rock Island surveyors are still
camped six miles north of Evening
Shade, and it is understood are mak
ing surveys up both Sloan and Lave
creeks. The corps coming south is a
considerable distance this side of
West Plains.- Sharp County Record,
*
<k *
The West Plains Gazette, in speak
ing of the survey now being made
from Newport says:
That the Rock Island survey is a
permanent one, and is being made
with the intention of constructing the
line, is certain. Only one thing can
stop the building of the line, so it is
said in railroad circles, and that is the
purchase of the Frisco by the Rock
Island. As President Yoakum, of the
Frisco, stoutly deuies such a proba- s
bility, it can be said with some de
gree of safety, that ere long West
Plains will have a direct line to St.
Louis.
A NEW CIRCUS FOR US.
For the first time in its history, the
Great Wallace Show will visit New
port this season. The date is Tuesday,
November 4. This is about the only
prominent city in the country that
the Wallace circus has not visited
during its seventeen annual tours of
the country. For some reason or
ether we have not been on Wallace’s
map.
The Wallace circus is a fine show, a
big one, and it is almost safe to Bay it
is the most popular and up-to-date
circus on the road today. It has a
large menagerie and museum, includ
ing some unusual features, and in its
circus proper there are from five to
eight acts at one time on the stage
and in the three rings.
After the Great Wallace Show’s ex
hibition here on Tuesday, Nov. 4,
when we will become well acquainted
with the Wallace aggregation and it
with our city, it is safe to say that
each will become popular with the
other and that the Wallace circus will
always be sure of large crowds when
ever it visits here.
Furnishing Goods!!

stocks of Men’s Shirts, Un
derwear, Handkerchiefs, Sus
penders and Neckwear ever
