Alleghany county will vote on
an additional $60,000 bond is
sue on the 10th, which will make
a total of f 100.00Q to the stock
of the Elkin and Alleghany Hail
road. As we understand the prop!
osition, if the bonds carry, it is a
guarantee that the road will be
built through the county within
four years. We can only hop6
that the good people of Allegha
ny county will vote this issue by
a good strong majority as it will
give us a southern outlet by way
of the Virginia-Carolina, in the
event that a connect ion is made
with this road, and we know that
our Ashe county friends will offer
sufficient inducements to get the
connection when the road reach
es the county line. Watauga
county has never failed to carry
a railroad isue by a large ma
jority when asked to do so, and
we hope that the good people of
Alleghany will do likewise.

Too Miibty Haaj Shows.
Wherever the Mighty Haag Shows
have exhibited press and public have
been a unit in praising the exceeding
ly large number of young and hand
some women performers. Bevies of
the fair sex are represented among
the riders, aerialists, contortionists,
jugglers, high wire artists, gymnasts
bicyclists, clowns, animal trainers,
chariot drivers and in fast among the
ring masters. As may naturally be
expected keen rivalry exists between
the lady and gentleman artist, a fact
which greatly enhances their perfor
mances, The lengthy program pre
sented this year by these shows con
tains only the best and most modern
features that money aud labor can
procure, aud in suoh quantity aud
variety as to satiate every arenlo
taste and fancy; lack of space pre
vents enumeiationof all the different
acts, many of which must be seen to
be appreciated.
There is an extended list, the last
of which does not by any means end
the pleasures which the Mighty Haag
Shows provide patrons on JUNE 9
afternoon and evening in BOONE.
There are sports of anolent Rome,
aud modern fete day races and con
teets. then the big menagerie forms a
zoological displiy without a peer in
all the world. Thus it will be seen
that there is a royal holiday feast in
store for all who attend.
