SHANNON. Miss Anderson, of Tupelo, is the

guest of Mrs. Janies DeFord. Mrs. M. L. Jacob, of Columbus, is

visitidg her son, M. L. Jacob and

family. Messrs. J. E. Bright and M. L. Ja-

cob have returned from a pleasant trip to Memphis.

Dr. S C. Spencer was called to Ve-

rona Sunday to see a negro that was

struck by a freight train early Sunday morning.

Dr. Felix Underwood, of Nettleton, was o.i our streets Saturday.

A. J. Stovall is having a handsome brick drug store erected on Main

stieet, which will add much to the ap-

pearance of our town. The cotton crop irt this vicinity is very

fine, the farmers have a bumper crop

of the fleecy scaple and aie receiving good prices for same.

One of the biggest musical produc- tions before the public this season, and which will play an engagement at the Comus Theatre on Saturday, October 11th, matinee and night, is “The Soul Kiss.” Few musical attractions in re-

cent years have made a better im-

pression upon theatre-goers. If an

attraction can remain in any one city any particular length of time, it must be conceded that it is a sort of attrac- tion theatre-goers and the public ap-

prove of. This can be said in favor of i

“The Soul Kiss,” which has a record of three hundred performances in New York, at the New York Theatre.
