HUDSON has sold the Racket store to John CHAMBERS, and will leave the first of next week for New Mexico, with a hope of benefiting the young lady. An inventory is being taken today and Mr. CHAMBERS will likely be the proprietor tomorrow. A New Hotel It now looks like Fairland was going to get that new hotel we have been wanting and needing so badly. Mrs. Ben HAMILTON of Joplin, who formerly operated a hotel at this place, came in this week bent on making some arrangements for a hotel. She succeeded in securing a location of the GALLEMORE lot near the deep well, and expects to soon begin the erection of a building that will meet the demands of the town. Mrs. HAMILTON is a good hotel lady and our people will rejoice to hear of her return to business here. Marriage The News is informed of the marriage of Mrs. Emma ROACH of Miami to Eld. K.R. DAVIS of Pittsburg, Kas. The wedding occurred in Miami last Wednesday, Eld. F.M. CONNER officiating.
