That
“Tired
Feeling”
It is often joked about, but the condi
tion itself is no joke. It indicates
serious derangement of the blood and
nervous system.
People can’t help feeling lazy and worn
out if impure blood flowing through all
the organs is poisoning them and para
lyzing their activity.
Spring is the season of blood impurity.
Nine people out of ten would feel better
through use of
SELLS’ SARSAPARILLA.
This is a blood purifier that really puri
fies. Pure rich blood means buoyant
health. Be your best this year by giv
ing nature a little help.

A. D. Bailey, G. W. Hurley and O. D.
Watson Elected As Board of Im
provement for Paving Front
Street at Special Meeting
of City Council.
At a special meeting of the city
council held Tuesday afternoon at
four o’clock, at which the mayor and
Aldermen Wishon, Bailey and Thomp
son were present, another step was
taken in the proceedure necessary for
the paving of Front street, between
Beech and Main streets.
By resolution offered by W. R.
Thompson, which recited the steps
taken in the publication of an ordi
nance providing for the making of an
improvement district, it being further
found that the petitioners represent a
majority in value of the real proper
ty affected, as shown by the tax as
sessments, a board of improvement
for said district, consisting of A. D.
Bailey, G. W. Hurley and O. D. Wat
son was chosen.
The property owners on Front street
are practically unanimous in favor of
the improvement; the assessed value
of the real property in the district is
§108,000 and of this, all but §25,000 is
represented in the signers of the peti
tion. Nor were all the property own
ers seen by the petitioners. The coun
cil and mayor are to be congratulated
and commended on their successful
fight, which practically assures the
paving of Front street.
MUSIC PUPILS’ RECITAL.
The first recital of the commence
ment season was given by the pupils
of Mrs. C. E. Crook Tuesday evening
at her home on Main street, which had
been made very beautiful for this oc
casion with rich floral decorations.
Quite a party of music lovers,
friends, parents and relatives of the
performers were out to enjoy an in
teresting program and none were dis
appointed in the excellence of the
several numbers. Proficiency upon
the part of the teacher is not the only
requirement for successful teaching
but the knack and tact of being able
to impart one’s own knowledge and
skill is essential and this Mrs. Crook
has to an abundant degree.
The parents of the pupils present,
expressed themselves as highly
pleased with the rendition of so ex
cellent a program, creditable alike to
instructress and pupils. -**•*»- ...

FREIGHTS COLLIDE
BELOW BEEBE.
Passenger service from the South
on the Iron Mountain Wednesday
morning was badly deranged owing
to a rear end collision of the second
and third sections of south bound
freight, No. 97 two miles south of
Beebe about eleven o’clock Tuesday
night.
This freight is scheduled to run
about 35 miles an hour and is the
fastest on the road. Section 2 ran out
of water below Beebe and the engine
was cut off from the train to ran to
the nearest supply tank. A flagman
was sent back to stop the next sec
tion, but that train was so close be
hind that long enough notice could
not be given for the engineer to slow
up.
Conductor Quinn on Section 2 was
slightly injured according to reports,
and a large number of freight cars
completely ruined. Fire started and
much of the wreckage was burned.
The telegraph poles were knocked
down and the wires cut, service not
being resumed until Wednesday noon.
Passengers 2 and 4 were delayed,
reaching Newport about 12:30 p. m.
Wednesday.
SANITARY REQUIREMENTS
TO BE MORE STRINGENT.
Newport is to be kept in better san
itary condition this summer. The
mayor and board of health are so de
termined and every public spirited
citizen should join in such a crusade
against filth.
An inspection is to be made by the
board in a few ^'ya and all premises
should be cleaned up else some par
ties are going to be subjected to lines
by the mayor. Cleanliness is a vir
ture that is second in rank to but one
and is just as necessary for a city as
the individual. Let every ciiizen in
terest himself in the public good by
looking after his own property.
SMALL PARTY ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. S. W. McFarland entertained
a small party of young friends Tues
day evening at her home in East
Newport. The game of flinch proved
the diverson and furnished the crowd
an abundance of pleasure.
Refreshments were served, consist
ing of ambrosia and cake.
Those present were Misses Julia
Grisholm, Lizzie Pugh, Lettie Mc
Lain, Ida McFarland, Myrtle Gravett,
Messrs. Ray Pace, Arthur Bowie, Will
Mendenhall, Watson Hawk, Cleve
land Robinson, Carry Stephens and
