TExABKANA, Ark, July 16-The rails for
the extension of the Gate City railway to
Sulphur are beginning to arrive, and in a
few days thirty carloads, en- route to make
connection with steamboat at Sulphur
will be here. The road is regarded as one
of the most important for the future of
Texarkans, for with boat in the river it
can compete with the high frelghts charged
by the railroads.

The Board of Education.


The board of education met Yesterday
afternoon in the Office of superintendent
OF public instruction, for the purpose of
making the apportionment of school
money for the counties. The spportion-
nent agreed upon was 81 per apita, the
same rate as last year. This basis of ap-
portionment is within the estimate of the
comptroller, and the oomptrollers esti-
mate is based upon actual receipts during
the past year. The board had informa-
ton upon which they might have fixed the
rate per capita higher, but they preferred
the more conservative oour.e In 1885,
the board of educ atom fixed higher rate
than this, and left as legacy to the pres
ent administration a deficiency of $780,
600. At the end of the present scholastic
year, August 81, there will be cash
balance of 100000, and 1t is
estimated that the cash balance at the end
of the next scholastic year will be equally
as much. Thus, the board have now &C.
com plished that for which they have long
labored-a suffi sient cash balance on hand
to guarantee the prompt payment OF
teachers.
The counties of E ,tor, FL Paso, Frank
lin, Kimball, Oldham, Runnels and Starr
sent in no scholastic census report, aud
for them the spportionment was made ac-
cording to the census reports of last year.

Story of the Wild West
 and Preside Chats. By Hon. W. F. Copy, Buffalo Bill )

Buffalo Bill is the Napoleon of
 American Scouts and Indian Fight
 CTS. He is one of the greatest and
 most versatile characters that this or any other country has ever pro- duced. He has won brilliant success and renown in all his undertakings.
 He is not only the greatest American frontiersman, but he Is also an edu
 cated man. He is familiar with the
 entire history of our country, and has made a special study of the lives and grand achievements of the great pioneers, whose deeds of daring have
 won the admiration and applause of
 the whole world. He is better qualified than any other man to
 write the great standard history of American Pioneer Life, for he hep ed to make that history, and his own agbentures constitute the most brilliant and thrilling portions of 1t. His peculiar fitness for the work that he has so successfully accom- plished was justly recognized by the Prince of Wales, Hon. Wm. E. Gladstone, Hon. John Bright, and other distinguished Englishmen, when they earnestly requested him to write the "Story of the Wild West" In this request they were joined by nearly every celebrated General in the American Army, who knowing Buffalo Bill intimately, knew that he was the man to wr.t
 this Grand History. It is book that every American can feel proud of. He not only tells of his own own marvellous achievements, but also those of his comrades and other great frontiersmen, including the thrilling story of the CusterMassacre, General Crooks campaign and a thousand otqer exciting incidents, and lastly a description of his won- derful career and success in exhibit ing his "Wild West Show" among the Grown Heads of all Europe. | Buffalo Bills pen is as vigorous as his rifle vas unerring, and his book will remain for ever the great stand ard history of pioneer life in America and should receive a glad welcome in the homr of every true and patriotic American This great histoeical book contains over seven hundred pages and nearlg three hundred spirited engravings.
