Miss Annabel Riggs enter
tained the once a week club last
Saturday. Dainty refreshments
were served.
Why should there beany objects
to Col. Murphey’s address of last
Thursday, relative to Jeff Davis
and his conduct as governor of
the state? Do the people of Ark
kansas want to sit without saying
anything, and doing so say we
approve of what he has done or
should the reports be investigated
and he proven whether true or
untrue.- yesterday was the day
for the investigation and every
one anxiously waiting the results.
Why did Cov. Jeff go hear Col.
Murphy?— Vidette.
In answer to the first question,
we will simply say, the people’s
choice and the executive of the
great state of Arkansas should
not we arraigned in any such
manner without some object. In
reply to the second qnestion the
people, of Arksnsas have fully
and completely spoken three
times on these lines and as far
as the newspapers are concern
ed, they haven’t had time to sit
still since he took Charge; the
ringsters continully ring and
money and capital have tried to
throw all the obstackles in Jeff’s
way. They only make chaos and
Jeff with his fine executive abili
ty makes votes out of their hy
pocricy. The last question in the
above clipping is why did Gov.
Davis go to hear Col. Murphy?
Vvhy bless you he didn’t. The
Gov.! heard this Tom-foolery all
over the state in two or three
campaigns and besides what is
the use of expecting a dead man,
a dead issue to be present at a
defamation meeting?Dead spirits
are not interested in these little
sideshows. The legislature may
order novel procedures, Joneses
may Jonah, Rector may Reck
and Murphey may chew Johnson
Grass; but as certain as water is
wet, star:; twinkle in the lonely
hours of midnight and Mary had
a little Lamb, just so certain
will Davis garner in a bountiful
karvcst of votesfromhis enemies
chaotic guess work. Then we
will have a Davis in the Senate,
who will stand for the South and
hold the hellhounds of classlegis
lation at bay.

The Taylor Angus Mar
riage.
Last Tuesday evening at 8:30
o’clek a wedding of much interest
to town and community took
place at the Methodist church.
The contracting parties were
Miss Edna daughter of Rev. and
Mrs. F. E. Taylor, and Walter B.
Angus. Long before the appointed
hour the church was filled with
a brilliant assemblage represent
ing the relatives and friends of
both parties.
The attendant* were Miss
Lizzie Grossett and J. A. Atkin
son, Miss Barbara Brazile and
Boyd Angus cousin of the bride
groom. Miss Ruth Shearer pre
sided at the organ, and announc
ed the bridal party with the
Mendelssohn Wedding March.
First came the ushers Bruce
Keeting and Hugh Shearer, fol
lowed by the attendants, and just
in their wake came the bride and
bridegroom. They were met at
the chancel by Rev. F. E. Taylor
father of the bride, who said the
beautiful ceremony in an impress
ive manner, during which Miss
Ruth played softly The Sweetest
Story ever told. The bride wore
a dainty girlish gown of white
organdy trimmed with satin rib
bons and applique. The bride
maids also wore white organdy
with white ribbons. Following
the wedding there was an inform
al reception at the home of the
bride with only the attendants
and relatives present.
There was much fun and mer
riment over the cutting of the
bridal cake, Miss Olive being the
lucky one to get the ring.
The happy couple received many
beautiful and useful presents,
amony them a lovely berry and
tea set of crystal glass with gold
trimmings, presented by J. A.
Atkinson and Bruce Keating. A
handsome silver fruit stand with
shade china bowl, present by
Boyd Angus, and a beautiful
silver tea pot the gift of Miss
Lola Wade of Memphis, and
many other useful and ornamental
presents.
This couple has many warm
friends who wish them much
happiness and sunshine along
| their matrimonial journey.
| Mr. and Mrs. Angus left on
! the night train for Texarkanna
| Ark. where they go to visit Mrs.
j Rex Cox, sister of the bride.
They will be at home to their
friends after March 5th at . the
parsonage.
