Come and Learn the All-finger Method.
From the walks of humble life have risen those who arc the lights and
landmarks of mankind.
Bulwer says “what men want is not talent it is purpose”; or in other
words not the power to achieve but the will to labor.
Ministers : Come and visit our school. We enjoy yonr presence.
We wish oun students to regard thoroughness of the first impor-
tance.
Parents: Give your sons and daughters the right start in life. Suc-
cess in every art whatever may be the natural talent is always the reward of
industry and pains.
Educated heads and skilled hands are always in demand. “There is no
royal road to wealth” but merit and energy are sure to be rewarded.
No young man or woman can invest the same amount of time in any
way that will open to them such reasonable possibilities of financial success
as in a thorough business education. It you want a sound business education
attend Bryant's Inter-State College. The real object of education is to give
A'ldren resources that will endure as long as life endures. Practicaleduca-
on implies the art of making active and useful what we learn. Ignorance
never known to bo ignorance till it is matched with knowledge. M nny
young men and women are waiting for positions where no particular qualifi-
cations are required; but such positions are few.
"If 1 were only sure of a tlrst-class position” says a young man “I would
not hesitate about qualifying myself with a thorough traiug” all the while al-
lowing golden opportunities to drift by. It young people and parents could
realize the necessity for and benefits likely to result from a thorough Practi-
cal Business education there would be hundreds availing themselves of the
superior advantages afforded at our live progressive College that are liv-
ing In aimless life in Texarkana and surrounding country.
Make a start young man To succeed in life require* a start end ”
make n start requires courage. Young mnn have you the courage. 1 ' lheu

Legislative Confusion
The deeply complicated situation of
State Legislature of “bleeding" Kan-
sas remains comparatively unchanged
since tho Governor’s Intimation that
ho would recognizze the Populists’ or-
ganization in the lower House. Sat-
urday's session in the Senate was de-
voted to debate over the recognition
of tiie Populist House the same coin-
ing up on presentation of tlic House
concurrent resolution O’Bryan (fu-
sion Dem.) of Wichita moved that a
consideration of this resolution lie de-
ferred until Monday and a rod-hot de-
bate followed. Dillard (Pop.) of
Bourbon county joined O’Bryan ami
Taylor (Pop.) and in a speech stated
that while his sympathies were all
with the Populists and Im had every
political reason for acting with them
ju this uialtor there was simply a pro-
position of right aud wrong and bo
must protest against any recognition
of the House. Tho Populists caucus
had determined to rush the concur-
rent resolution through aud niter two
i speeches from O’Bryan of Sedgwicit
: who led the tight for the opposition
' demanded the previous question.
The motion to defer the considera-
i tiou of House concurrent resolution
I until Monday afternoon was lost by a
vote of 22 to 17. This was really a
; test vote showing that the Populist
strength is sufficient and the determi-
: nation to recognize the Populist
House fixed.
Gov. Eagle No Better.
| Since bis last relapse a day or two
i ago flic Governor's condition haa re-
-1 mained about the same and while the
! patient is reported “no better” from
j day to day it is also reported that he
| is no worse though a very sick man.
The latest reports all go to confirm
tho above report; and while all that
kind loving hands and the best of
medical skill can do is being done for
the distinguished sufferer yet the fact
remains true that lie is critically til
and unless a favorable turn conies
soon ids condition is well nigh hope-
less.
A Fatal Shot.
A too liberal indulgence in “moon-
shine whiskey” lias been the means of
placing the stain'of human blood upon
the mime of Arkansas. The trouble
occurred this time in Hot Springs
county where Will Luallen shot and
killed Bob Short. The killing was
done at a dance given about 11 miles
from the city of Hot Springs on Sat-
urday night and was caused by jeal-
ousy over a girl. The murderer
mounted ids horse Immediately after
firing flic fatal shot and succeeded in
making hie escape.
A Destructive Fire.
What proved to lie a very destruc-
tive fire broke out about 1 o’clock
Sunday morning In our neighbor city
Paris Tex. The tire occurred in the
Walker block of four two-story brick
stores. They were entirely destroyed
as were the residences of A. W. Ne-
ville and Mrs. Sue Walker adjoining
ami the livery barn of Wake Bros.
The loss was about $20000 with only
$6750 insurance. Foreman Barry of
the lire department was severely burn-
ed on the band and narrowly escaped
being crushed by falling walls.
Hymeneal.

Winfrey a most charming and popu-
lar young lady of this city. The nup-
tial ceremony wifi lie celebrated on

est and choicest blessings.

PUSHING ITS LINE.
Extension Plans of the Kansas City
Nevada and Ft. Smith Railway.
The Kansas City Nevada and Fort
Smith railroad company has a corps
of surveyors in tiie field surveyingthc
proposed line ftom the northern ter-
minus of the Texarkana and Fort
Smith to Fort Smith Ark. As soon
as the surveys are completed and the
right of way established the work of
construction will be begun and pushed
as rapidly as possible.
Recently the Kansas City Nevada
aud Fort Smith Company purchased
the Texarkana and Fort Smith which
was projected to run from Texarkana
to Fort Smith and which was built a
distance of thirty miles. The inten-
tion is to build to Fort Smith where
connection will be made with the ex-
tension of the Nevada road which
will soon be completed as tar as Pitts-
burg and then extended South to
Fort Smith. Work will be done on
both ends at the same time and with-
in a year and a half the company ex-
pects to have a through line from
Kansas City to the Gulf of Mexico.
The point fixed upon for a gulf outlet
is Sabine Pass and when tiie two ex-
tensions arc completed the lino from
Texarkana to the pass will bo speedily
built. There aro some 300 odd miles
of track to be built in order to secure
a through line to the Gulf.—Kansas
City Star.
Patti Rosa.
The largest and most select audience
of the season greeted this popular
public favorite on the occasion of her
appearance at Gillo’s Opera House in
this city on Saturday evening in the
Inimitably sparkling and irresistibly
funny comedy entitled “Miss Dixie.”
The evening was one of pure unalloy-
ed pleasure from beginning to end.
The play itself a farcial satire upon
the fad of hypnotism is brimming
full of wit satire and pleasing senti-
ment while the acting of tho Star as
well as every other member of her
splendidly equipped aud well balanced
company was the very acme of rare
and skillful impersonation. The spec-
ial features of music dancing etc. to-
gether with the latest and catchiest
topical songs were simply exquisite.
' After witnessing such an entertain-
ment oun can no longer wonder that
Patti Rosa has won so warm a place
in tiie hearts of her people nor longer
doubt that she Is indeed tiie popular
“foot-light" favorite of America.
