TEXARKANA!
ARKANSAS AND TEXAS.
17 Years Old and Popula-
tion 15000.
Gateway tn aqd from Texas aqd
the Great Southwest.
Texarkana is a live progressive city—Twin City—located partly in
Texas and partly in Arkansas her 15000 population being about equally di
vided between the two States. Though comparatively young she has grown
slid developed as few other cities have done.
A RAILROAD CENTER.
Texarkana has eight railroads with over a thousand resident railroad
employes; this gives her especial advantages in the commercial world and
this together with the high and healthy location of the city will in a few
years make her a city of 25000 population. One of these railroadsis owned
by home people and runs to navagable water thus giving us competing rates
by water.
ELECTRIC LIGHTS WATER WORKS AND STREET RAILWAY.
Texarkana's system of electric lights and water works are unsurpassed
by any city of ten times her population. Also has a splendid gas plant
splendid system of street railroads permeate the city in every direction.
BANKS FACTORIES ETC.
Ve have four National banks with an operating capital of $600000.
There are a number of extensive manufacturing enterprises among them fur-
liture factories a fence factory cotton seed oil mill a number of iarge lum-
ocr factories ice factory cotton compress a $125000 Government building
ind Federal courts. A $75000 union depot—the finest west of the Missis-
sippi river; two live daily newspapers three large first-class hotels with ca-
pacity for 400 guests daily several large wholesale houses that do an immense
jobbing trade.
LOCATION SOCIETY ETC
The town site is located near the Eastern appex. and at about the high-
est point on a plateau formed by Red and Sulphur rivers which run nearly
parallel and nearly due east for abyut 10b miles and at a distance of about
thirty miles apart. Being located on uu elevation the drainage is good.
Lima pottei’a clay and gvpsum at band and coal iron lead and antimony
ores near by. and will be virtually at our doors as soon as men and money
can complete the railroads now building to the mines. Thousands of acres
of hardwood timber right at hand. Public graded schools with fine brick
school buildings and two excellent colleges. Churches of nearly all Christian
denominations with church property valued at SBOOOO. No city in the South
possesses more Mim’d or polite society or more generous and hospitable peo-
ple. Strangers are treated courteously ami pains taken to show them our
many advantages.

Deserving Praise.
We desire to say to our citizens that
for years we have been selling Hr.
King’s New Discovery for consump-
tion Dr. King’s New Life Pills. Buck-
len’s Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters
and have never handled remedies that
sell as well or that have given such
universal satisfaction. We do not
hesitate to guarantee them every time
and we stand ready to refund the pur-
chase price if satisfactory results do
not follow their use. These remedies
have won their great popularity pure-
ly on their merits.

The clergyman called on Mrs. Velox.
