MAN HUNT IN ARKANSAS.
Hundreds OF Men, with Bloodhounds.
Chasing Four Train Robbers.

BATEsvIILE. Ark, Nov. 5.-This town
has been in the midst of the most intense
excitement all day. The two 0iiphant
train robbers captured yesterday are in Jail
here, and q posse in pursuit of the four
men still st large came upon them ct an
early hour tins morning two miles from
jamestown, and lively running fight en-
sued. The bandits were forced to abandon
six of their horses and take TO their heels.
They also abandoned several oyercoats,
pistols and a lot of jeweiry.
Toward noon telephone message was
received from jamestown stating that
bloodhounds were within rifle shot of the
robbers and they we're firing at the
hounds. At p. IN. another skirmish took
place between the opposing parties, but no
one was hurt. The bandits are making
for the White river bottoms on foot, and
hiding in caves along the banks Of that
stream. Hundreds of men are out, and il
is thought 10 be impossible for the bandits
to escape.
Jack w. Wackerty, who Is suspected of
knowing more about the robbery than he
would admit, was put under arrest today.
Fresh bloodhounds are on the way here
from Memphis and viii be put on the
track in the morning.

Of hyaraphohfa.
Mr.. Mcdonald arrived I'm this city on
Ocsoscr % and applied % DR.. W. 5. Taylor
for treatment, saying be rs suffering from
extreme nervousness. Il noticed the
entered my cfEice." said Dr.. Taylor last
night The following morning found
him still more excited He said be had
passed bad night. and be had not been
able 70 sleep. He complained Of his
throat, and said there Was . terri
bic feeling there that he could not
get rid OF. I asked Mr.. Melon
aid If he had ever been bit
ten by dog. lie said yes. but the dog
was not mad he explained that when he
was in Chicago as the Worlds fair, two
months ago, he visited q friend and
stopped down TO pc; q dog that Was
chained and mnzxled. The dog. which had
been hurt By blow on the back, jumped
at him, and one tooth struck above his
eyebrow. making a slight abrasion that
was afterward cauterized by q physi.
clan. The deg died few days later
aud post-moTtem examination was made.
when il was discovered death was caused
by an injury 10 the kidneys. I passed it
of by saying, Oh, well, in that case you
are all right Some of his friends think
he was scared to death by the thought that
he had hydrophobia. He must have had
that idea himself. by the way he looked
and spoke. He appeared to comprehend
his situation very clearly.
$40 relieve his extreme nervousness
gave him some hyperdemic injections 10
quiet him. but 1t was Of no avail. He grew
worse. and at the request of his wife
transferred the case TO another physician.
On Thursday the patient died. My
diagnosis of the case was hydrophobia.
In this Drs. Robinson and Thorne
agreed"
The attendants who were present In Mr..
McDonald's last hours report that he be-
came violent and that 1t was necessary 10
strap him TO the bed.
He constantly complained of terrible
choking sensation IN his throat. and
begged the physician to perform an opera
ton on his windpipe to relieve him.
Saliva oozed from the corners OF his
mouth, and he exhausted his energy in
frantic efforts to free his mouth by con-
slant splitting.
He appeared to realize his frightful fate
So sensitive was he that TO even approach
him with anything to eat or drink or to
hold dam pened towel before him threw
him into paroxysm of hysteria
The death certificate was signed by DR..
Julius Rosenstein, who assigned acute
mania as the cause of death. When asked
concerning the case last night DR.. Rosen-
stein declined TO talk. He said his certiti-
cate was on file and was public property.
Further than that he had nothing to say,
Cases of hydrophobia are so rare on the
Pacific coast that an occurrence of this
kind attracts unusual attention.

WHATcom. Nov. 5.-fspceiai. There Is
lively competition among steam boat men
this fail for the contract for carrying the
mail on the Pert Townsend-Sew What
com route, via the San Juan islands. A
strong effort 10 being made By the COM
mersiai organizations Of The bay cities and
by the people Of the islands 10 bsye the
service increased TO SIX times per seek
and The government. has asked for bids for
such service as we'll as for the present tri-
weekly service, for which the contract
price Is now about $1,000 per year.
The contract is likely to be let
at much lower figure this
year. however, as bidders are more
numerous and competition brisk. The
trade OF the islands has increased materi-
ally since the contract was last let. and .
good revenue is derived from that source.
The mail boat now runs 20 Seattle once a
week, and the Queen City secures large
part of the island trade. as freight is as
cheap from there as it Is from the bay
cities. The PosT-IsTELzIsEscEa CORE
spondent IL informed that three bids for
the contract nave been or will be sent from
Seattle. two st least from Port Townsend.
one from Whatcom and one from Fair

THE MEMORY OF A VOICE.

What's in voicef great deal, some
times.
To the professional singer il is capital
sometimes fortune and sometimes fame.
People are recognized by their voices
when their features and forms are for
gotten.
The voice often betrays criminals when
their persons are unknown. When all
other means Of detection have failed the
blind have detected criminals on hearing
their voices.
The presence of friend or an enemy is
made known by the sound of his voice.
The tone OF voice sometimes indicates
its owners character; it is often er indica-
tive OF his feelings, wheth er in good
hamor or bad.
There are many kinds of voices. One
need not mingle with q noisy crowd TO
learn that fact. tn ere are nasaI-sound
Ing and guitnr al voices; Irritating and
soothing voices; harsh and musical voices;
sonorous and feeble voices; boisterous and
gentle voices; bold and tlmid voices.
husky and wheezy voices; squeaking and
cracked voices; but TO my ears, the most
disaEreeable OF all is the feminine
voice beIon ging sometimes 10 broad
dered and iarge-chesied man, who. of
al others. enc would suppose possessed a
stron masculine voice. While feminine
vosc issuing from the throat of giant in
stature and breadth is dis2greeabie. il il
not so annoying as the low and inaudible
voice. which often oompels the person adj
dressed 20 say, Beg pardon; what did
Won remark and in the end leaves him
In doubt as to what was really said. So
much for human voices, Of which no two
are precisely alike.
Then there are the thousands of voices
OF nature. Of the elements. OF the deep and
rs Inhabitants. OF the floods, the flames.
The Winds, OF the fowls of the air, OF four
footed beasts, OF insects and all Creeping
things- even Of the ans, whose voice il is
said solomon both heard and understood.
Did tue reader ever bes,ow thought on
these lunulaerable voices. sll differing in
character. N sound and yolumeT They
coald not he even remotely described or
enumerated. Is st not truly wonderful
And IS Il all the result Of chance, as some
wou'G haye us believer
We occasionally read or hear Of two
persons bearing so close resemblance in
fern sad facial features that even their
Kindred with difficulty distinguish one
from ire other. When such connie i
ioEnd the fact IS Published far and near as
something remarkable and very rare. Yet
u Il not more rare than hearing two voices

nlAEaae nay initiate the voice and gesture
