The story told in entirely col

Post Dispatch of how two child

water melon, has started a laugh
reverberating around this steid
old globe, that’probably won’t
get headed off until St. Peter calls
order at the Pearly Gate.

Letter From Tennessee.
I thought you might appreciate
a letter from this pait of th<
country and as I think I can re
late a few facts of intcrestto youi
readers, will now begin.
I have now been in Wilson co.
Middle Tenn., for two months
and four days and find the peopk
here very friendly indeed and ir
good spirits, considering the ex
tremely dry weather. Prom fre
fjuent letters I have received
from dear, old Aakansas, I mi
derstand the drought there was
very mild. Arkansas may wel
appreciate her prosperity, for sh<
is indeed a favored state. Tim
state has had a greater drough,
than last year. Arriving here oi
the morning of the 12th day o
July, I found it exceeding!;
warm and dusty and everyoiv
wishing for rain. But since tha
time to the present, no rain ha
fallen only showers and those ii
spots. Corn is dry and browr
hay and wheat nearly a complet
failure. As cotton is not raise
in this part of the state, the ir

habitants will feel this drought
more than last gear’s. Water
's very scarce here on account of
tho rocks. Weils have to be bor
ed with a drill driven by a steam
engine; taking a week or more to
find water, which is not often
found short of 100 feet deep and
is then frequently so strong with
white sulphur that it is impossi
ble to use it for several months.;
sometimes years. The roads are
very rough at all times. Our sum
mer roads delight even the most
fastidious.
The Western Union depot in
Nashville is just grand. It is what
Longfellow would have called a
“dream of beauty.” Well for
fear of taking up too much space
and time. I shall not relate any
more of my trip, although this is
not a good beginning.
Hoping my letter to the News
will be welcomed and appreciated
I remain,
Your Friend and “Arkansas”
