of a theft early Wednesday evening,
when some miscreant came through
the back door and entered the
unlocked safe and pilfered some sls
from a money sack therein. Dr.
Fryer hasn't any clue as to the thief,
but feels sure it was some one who
is familiar with the arrangement of
the store and the location of the
safe.

When the new switch track is ex
tended to the stock sheds of the
W. A. Hall Lumber Co., the munici

good deal closer to the railroad. It
will also bring the Farmers Ware

No doubt the switch track will soon
be extended to these places. It will
greatly facilitate the loading of cot
ton and the unloading of coal and
other products.
