The City of Peoria, of the Memphis*
Newport Packet Company, on her trip
last week was compelled to turn back
from Des Arc, owing to the low stage
of White river. It is probable New
port will be passed up until rains bring
a rise in the river.
L. N. Nouss, Louis Worthen, man
ager of the Southern Cooperage Com
pany’s plant at Minturn, and brother
of St. Louis, accompanied by several
others from the last named city, left
Tuesday morning for Bergen lake and
will go to Whitsteiu tomorrow for a
camp.
That Arkansas beats the world at
this time of the year in its out-of-door
roses is an acknowledged fact. If one
were not convinced of this statement’s
aecurgney, he should view some one
of the half dozen American Beauties
raised by C. R. Hite, that are eleven
iqhes in circumference, though still
i the bud.
A. fair house witnessed the presen
tation of “The Burglar and the Waif”
Monday evening. Those present ex
press themselves as pleased with the
talent of the company. Their engage
ment for to-night is at Poplar Bluff,
for which point, they left on the noon
train.
An insolent tramp on Monday morn
ing, upon being refused a cup of coffee
at M. K. Upshaw’s residence, flew in
to a rage, cursed the ladies present,
the town and its people. A negro
passing rebuked him and the hobo
drew a knife and would have assaulted
him had the negro not run. Newport
has too mauv tram us and far more
than the average town. A rockpile
is needed that these able bodied but
lazy rascals, who thus oifer insult to
our ladies, may learn what labor is, or
else give this city “a wide berth.”
