MUST BE DONE QUICKLY
Organization of New Military Com
pany Must be Accomplished In
a Short Time.
Mr. W. P. Greauey is pushing the
work of securing names of recruits
for the new military company soon
to be organized in Cairo. and is
meeting with excellent success, hav'
ing added several names to the list,
An armory hall has not yet been se
leeted but the K. M. K. V hall nt
Mammoth hall at 1300 Poplar stree
have been spoken of as suitable
places. ,
Cant. N. B. Thlstlewood desert e
credit for making the initiitl steps
toward securing the organization for
Cairo as the following letkr will
show:
Captain N. B. Thlstlewood, Cairo, 111
Dear sir:
Some time ago yon Informd me
that yon were anxious that a miliJiry
company be organized i.i Cairo,
have Just mustered out a company
Mound City and have a vacancy
my regiment. If a company can be or
ganlzed in Cairo within th ? next week
or ten days so that it may prepare
for duty In camp August 1 "th to 20th
I will Im? pleased to mui1";' such
company Into my regime:.!, provided
suitable men can be secured for oPl
cers. It Is ai m neressar? that sulta
ble quarters can be obtained as sd
armory. Please write me at ence
whether or not a comprnv can be
formed there on such short notice
If It can, go ahead with iu
Respectfully. "
J. MACK TANNER,
Colonel 4th Infantry, I. N. G.
It will require some hustling to get
the company organized and uniformed
before the dale mentioned but it I.
believed this can be done as few cl
ties the size of Cairo can loast of
more well drilled young men. Dur
ing the existence of the Cairo higtf
school cadets that organization en
joyed a widespread reputation ant;
frequently won laurel;; at neighboring
cities by their excellent work.
The companies now attending the
yearly encampment at Springfield arc
also being treated to a visit to the
World's fair and it is'hoped the Cai
ro company may be organized in time
to take advantage of the encampment
ahd the St. Louis trip..
Capt. N. B. Thlstlewood Is a per
sonal friend of State Adjutant Gener
al Thomas W. Seott an-J it is expected
the company may be . equipped or
short notice.
The armory hall and equipment
will lie furnished by the state.

Temporarily in charge.
General Rver News.
The stage of the river at 4 p. iu.
esterday was 26.1 showing a ri; of
1.5 in twenty-four hours.
Bob Holden Is here to take the Fin-
ley to Pittsburg. The coal towing to
St. Louis is finished and she goes up
the Ohio with empties. On one trip
to St. Louis she towed twelve barges;
George Clark was one of her pilots.
The Chlsca passed clown yesterday
morning with eight barges of rock.
She brought out three euiptico which
she left here.
Dull business in the lumber trade
is being felt by the local towboats.
The Wool folk, Michaels, Paepcke and
Boeckler are laid up here.
It must be quite a disappointment
to the parties composing the differ
ent World's fair expeditions that have
died here. On June 27th two young
men arrived from Chautauqua, N. Y.,
in a canoe having traveled 1.325 tulles
and having only 20 more to travel to
reach their destination. They got as
far up the Mississippi as the Green
field ferry landing, where they gave
up the effort and had the canoe haul
ed over to town and shipped hack to
Jamestown, N. Y. It was their pur
pose to pose before the admiring
crowds at the fair a the heroes of
the longest canoe trip ou record, hut
wheu they struck the Father of Wa
ters he said: No boys, you cau't
do It, you know. Get out and go to
work." Two other canoe parties havp
met the same fate at the hands of Old
Mississippi. Now the Pnnxsutawney
Is here awaiting ber tussel with the
current of the Mississippi, which is
wild and strong In consequence of a
rapid rise which Is running out. She
Is said to have an eight horse power
engine, but it is doubtful If that will
suffice.
The -dally thunderstorm sent a skir
mishing party in here about 6 o'clock,
but the heavy artillery was set otf at
8:45 and exceeded anything we have
yet had. Threshing machines and
traction engines are lying Idle and
the wheat Is sprouting In the stack.
The frost will he on the pumpkin be
fore long, and It stiil rains. Barron I
seems to be helpless and Smyth Is off
establishing new river gauges.
On her way tip the river last Wed
nesday nigtil the steamr r Chester met
with an accident that made her look
like she had been in a railroad wreck.
The boat was going up the river at
full speed wh.-n the, swinging stage
dipped In the river. The speeJ of the
boat against a swift current caused
the stage to pull down the jackstaff
and the heavy timber and they fell
oft tbe fnnt of the nppcr deck tearing
sway about twenty feet of the guards j
and roof. Carprnfer.i are now at work ;
repairing the damans and the fa.t
little steamer will not lose a trip.
Two sfeamloat engineers were cn
saeeJ in conversation yeiterday af
ternoon while standing in front of the
Glad Hand, and one of them was
heard to say: I am anooi mem i
boats like I am about the Lee line. I '
hope they will all rot or burn up or
sink." In th.' natural course of events '
they probably will, bin tbis engineer s
attention Is called to the old story ;
alKMit the "gciose thst !al 1 the golden -
ere ." There re other engineers. 1
A coal paser on the J. B Fin ley
waa sent to the mstine hospital yea-
terday with the great toe of his left
foot mashed. It was found necessary
to amputate one Joint of the toe. He
is a negro and kuown as Will Davis.
Col. Nellls has been engaged to

Dear Sir: Having noticed an ar

the clays of Alexander county suit
able for the making of vitrified or pav
ing brick, I wish to t;ay that we have
an Inexhaustible deposit of shale or
fire brick clay at this place.
This clay Is said by experts to vit
rify nicely and to also make an excel
lent fire brick, burning a rich buff
color. This deposit Is located within
two or three hundred yards of the

In view of the ast quantities of both
