Words of Praise.

In speaking of a recent visit to
Arkansas and its institutions gener.
ally as viewed bv him while in this
State Charles Dudley Warner, the
celebrated writer and world renown-
ed traveller, has this to say of our
State Insane Asylum at Little Rock:
81 confess that the State Lunatic
Asylum gave me u genuine surprise,
and if the civilization of Arkansas
were to be judged by it, it would
take high rank among the Sta es.
fhe builders seem to have taken adj
vantage of all the Eastern experience
and stunned the Eastern mistakes,
and the result is an establishment
with all the modern improvements
0nd conveniences constructed in the
most enlightened spirit do not
know a better large State Asylum in
the United States"
This 10 only one of the many evi
deuces of Arkansas modern progress
and improvement, as displayed in her
public and private institutions.
The fact is that Arkansas keeps
steadily forging ahead in her onward
march toward higher plain than
that which she has been too long con.
tent to occupy, and while her advance
ment may not be acknowledged or
even generally noticed, yet the fact
remains that she has in the past few
years, taken much higher rank in
the sistcrhood Of States than many OF
her rivals in the contest for suprc.

A Popular Favorite.

In speaking of Lillian Lewis, the
fair and facinating favorite of the
American footl;ghts, the San Antonio
Express, says: There is probably no
better known actress in San Antonio
than Miss Lillian Lewis, who is at
present playing an engagement at the
Grand Opera House. Miss Lewis has
been visiting this city regularly for
many seasons past, and her popularity
is evidenced by the large audiences
that invariably greet her Although
Miss Lewis has only been seen in
emotional parts, she is an actress of
rare versatility and she has large
repertoire Of various plays.

The new offices, depot and waiting

kama e. Fort Smith railway, for the
uses and benefit Of their patrons In
this city, are both spacious and hand

spared neither trouble nor expense IN
fitting up their new quarters, and the
result is, that they have one Of the
most attractive and comfortable places
in the city.

was of sufficient nature to assure her
hearty welcome. The company was
strong, especially Whitecar and Gus

scenery called for plenty of admira-
tion, and the Standard Theatre was
crowded with an audience which
thoroughly enjoyed the play, and
which gave vent to its feelings by con-
tinuous applause. "Lady Lii" is the

A FEARFUL SIGHT.
Train Men View the Mangled Re
mains of a Beautiful Girl.

The crew of the morning passenger
train on the Texas & Pacific railway,
were met by a horrible sight on their
arrival at Forney, a station on the
Texas & Pacific railway, about $50
o'clock last evening.
Just before the whistle was sound
ed for the station, and as the engine
came bounding around the curve,
which leads down the level stretch to
the town, Engineer Murphy discover
ed, to his horror, that party of the
townspeople, composed of young
ladies and their escorts, en-route
home from church, were strolling
leisurely down the track, unaware of
the approaching danger. Quick as
thought his trained hand flew to the
throttle, and in another instant the
engine had been reversed the warning
whistle sounded and the deep clang-
ing of the bell told of danger, immi-
nent ahd threatning. But all too late:
One more life had been offered up as
q sacrifice to the iron monster, in
whose Unsuitable greed thousands of
human lives have been swallowed up,
only to whet the appetite for blood to
keener edge.
The victim on this deplorable oc-
casion was Miss Ella Bowles, beauti-
ful and accomplished young lady, and
member of the most respected fami-
lies of Forney, Tex. The young lady
was returning from church in com
pany with her brother and several
friends, and was within hundred
yards of home when the first notice of
the approaching messenger of death
reached her. She attempted to es-
cape with her companions, but catch
ing her foot under the rail, was
thrown directly across the track in
front of the engine, and in another
moment her torn and mangled re-
mains were strewn along the track,
marking with blood the path Of the
Joo{L Jaol,poe p,a china
Those of the passengers and crew
who witnessed the soul sicknening
sight declare it to have been horrible
beyond description, and all concur in
hoping that they may never be called
upon to witness such another.
The body Of the once beautiful girl
was recovered in fragments and re-
moved to the home of her parents,
where it was surrounded by grief
stricken relatives and sorrowing
friends, who united in bewailing the
tragic accident which brought to an
untimely death one so deservedly pop
ular and universally beloved
No blame attaches either to the
railway company or its employees, so
far as can be ascertained, the deplor-
able affair being one Of those unfore-
seen accidents which continually occur
in the lives Of the most careful and
prudent persons.

SENATORIAL cHAIRMANsHIPs
Southern Senators Will Get Thirty
two out of the Forty Committees.

Late Washington dispatches give
the following: The committee of the
Democratic caucus, which has for the
past week been dealing with the
troublesome question of revising the
committees of the Senate and assign
ing chairmanships to the proper men,
bers, has practically finished its work.
Mr.. German thinks that the party
caucus cannot be held earlier than
Tuesday, and it is notimprobable that
on that morning the committee VIII
make its final report. The committee
declines to give out any information
relative to the results of its numerous
conferences, but it is known there has
been NO violent fracture of the tradl-
ton of the Senate by which the rank
ing minority Senator becomes chair
man. Many changes have, however,
been made necessary, as one of the
members said, by reason of the en-
trance into the Senate of the new
Democratic members from the North
ern States. A glance at the committee
list of the last Senate shows how diff
cult it has been to bring about re-
suit satisfactory to all. There are
forty standing committees Of the Sen
ate aud out of this number the rank
ing Democratic member who is ell
titled to the chairmanship in thirty OF
these committees
COMES FROM SOUTHERN STATES,
and but nine from the North. In the
select committees the same prepon-
derance from the South is seen, there
being eight from that section and but
one from the North. The election OF

and California has compelled the com
mittee to make shifting of member.

ern ranking members, the name OF
some Senators appear in many COM
mittees, the member from that part Of
the country having served in the Sen.
ate many years. Despite all this
however, it is understood that there
has been very little variation from the
usages Of the Senate in making the
appointment of chairmen to the i'm.
portant committees Of the Senate, al.
though the general makeup of the
committees appear to have very
materially changed.
The committee will hold another
meeting today, and go over the re-
vised list and make such corrections
as may be necessary. If any nomina.
tions are sent to the Senate Monday
they will be received and laid over
until the committees have been fully
reorganized, and this will not, the
caucus committee thinks, be earlier
than the middle Of the week.

THE meeting of the Montana Press
association was a success--a tremen-
dous SUCCESS. It could not have been
better, save in attendance, and in that
respect could not have been moro rep-
resentative of the brains and good fol-
lowship of Montana journalism. It
was q reunion of workers such as we
like to fancy, but seldom find; it adj
journed with the most satisfactory re-
suits. In a programme replete with
good things, nothing was lacking. The
business part of the meeting was fin
ished in short order after the election
OF Editor A. X. Yerkes, of Bozeman, as
president for tho coming year. This
was a gratifying recognition of good
services for the association; it was a
unanimous choice and was received
with deserved enthusiasm. That fea-
ture which attracted special interest
the proposed excursion to the Worlds
fair-was left in the hands of a capable
committee, and will doubtless be ar
ranged to the satisfaction Of all. The
real feature, of course, was the enter
tainment, and concerning this, as the
