s VOL XX111. ffiiiil For Some Handsome Stores on Main Street. BURROUGHS & COLLINS CO. ^ The Store and Office* of this Firm are to Occup> the [Norman Lot To l?e the Largcat and llandsom - ( est Building- In Conway. The contract was made last week by Burrough & Collins Company for , the erectiou of two buildings on Main Street to be erected on tbe Norman property adjoining the new * brick building now occupied by the ; Kuss Adams Co. One of the build- | ings, known as the store building, ( will be two stories high, will have a , frontage of 50 feet on Main Street , and will extend back from tneStreei , for the distance of 100 fest. The | other of the two buildings will contain the offices and real estate busi- j ness of Burroughs & Collins Com- . pany, it will adjoin the store building on the southern side, will meas- | ure 27 feet front on Main Street, and j will extend back for 57 feet.. Tbe } contract provides for the erection of , a large fireproof vault in the ollice j building and this is intended to take care of the valuable land papers and other records of the Company. The store building will have four rows j of shelves, one on one side of the 5b foot space and the other two rows . in the middle. The building will occupy the greater part of the space wnicn is now vacant between the , store of Russ-Adams and the pror- s erty of W. R. Lewis. ; The business men of the town are ( glad to learn of this move on the , part of this large concern, which has during nearly two decades con- | ducted the largest mercantile busi- . ness in ilorry County. Heretofore j their main business has beei: carried . on at what is called the "Gully | Store", which is situited more than j ^ a quarter of a mile from the court- , house and entirely separated from , the other business houses of the town. Their move to Main Street , will enhance the value of otbsr | property in that part of tho town j aud will result no doubt, in bringing still other comoanies to Conway. Tho friends of the Company | for many years pa^t, have been urging Mr. P. A, Burroughs to move the business down town and | these friends were working not only ( r ic the interest of Mr Burroughs, but in behalf of the other business j interests of Conwny. , Between the 0IV130 building and , thejstore of Mr W It Lewis an avenue 30 feet in width will be opened running all the way from Main Street to the lake wilh concrete pavements and proper grading. The front of the new buildings will consist of plate glass and selected brick. The cement side walK which has already been laid down to the southern wall of the Russ-Adams building will be Completed down tO Mr. Lamms nvnn - r . W erty as soon as the now building has been comploted. V Took l-ejr Ball. The appeal of W, J. Bruton from the decision of the Mayor's Court, finding him guilty of violation of the town ordinance relating to con ? traband liquor came up for hearing in the higher Court on Wednesday of last week. Ha had boon tried in ( the town Court on two counts, one for selling liquor and one for trans- ! porting contraband liquor on the streets in the night time. The : writtou verdict of the Mayor failed to state whether ho had been con- 1 victed upon both of these counts, or ; only one of them The Court decided that they would sustain the con- '< viction upon thecourtfor transport- 1 but not upon the count for selling ' and the case was remanded to Mayor 1 Little for the purpose of re sentenc- j ing Bruton. After this decision of the Court Bruton remained about 1 town, but on the following morning he had disappeared and could not ' be found. He is still absent. 1 News from Zoan. \ Mr Editor: Please allow me space in your valuable paper for these words The health of the community is, not so good.

The rumor and certain auonvmous writers who circulated a part of the printed bill had it that uo one could sell drugs of any kind after 1st of July, If 10, except a p yMcian, pnarinaoUt or one skilled in medicine; and said bill was introduced by Mr Ridgell The rum o* ulso made it appear ihat said b 11 had passed or would piss and would ho made a law. So there was consideraole comment and the people wore importuning their represonlat ves to oppose tho measure Now, as this rumor had riveted itself so strongly upon the mimK of the people th'>v were hard lo make believe, but what it was a law. B_jause of this fact, 1 have, in order to satisfy the minds of all, put myself to a little trouble to get the facts in the matter for the bencht if all conceruid, and take this medium of explaining to all. The facts ire a follows: On February 4th Dr Midgell, of Hexi ngton conn ty i n t rod uced44 House Bill No. 12tit)." That no one could sell medicine as before referred except he was a pharmacist or physician, etc. This bill was referred to committee on "Meuical AlTairs" but was never reported back to the House by that committee and therefore was never acted upon by the House of Representatives So you ill can see clearly that no such law was passed Now, whv tho bill was never reported back to tho House 1 can't <ay, except the committee thought it a travesty and an outrage even Lo kill time with such an unjust and inreasonuhie measu re Why, certainly, 1 have no fault to lind with people who want to know About such a matter?a matter that is so unjust and concerns the masses is it does. As for tne, if I could nave orevented Slioh n. mo-aanm ffnm .? passing, I would have boon there jntil vet opposing it, if it lead been required rather than let an act pass which would have been so detrimental to th masses just for the tew to monopolize the sale of drugs For selfish interest. I trust that ail will be satisfied md content now, and this explanation will suffice. Now, again, allow me to say, that 1 am only too g'ad to give any informatiunl can, not only on thN juestion, but any other that the public may wish.
