A Labor of Love.

Despite the inclement weather, a
fair attendance was had at the meet
ing of the Woman's Auxiliary of the
NC A, at their hall, in this city, on
yesterday afternoon. The meeting
was held pursuant to a call OF the
president, Mrs. E. f. Friedell, to con-
slider the means Of charging the
work heretofore carried on by the
Auxiliary and devise ways for reach
ing and influencing the youth of this
city in an effort to bring them within
the scope of the social, moral and re-
ligious influences of this Association.
Theirs is truly great and good aim
and the efforts expended by them
therein constitute, in its highest and
best sense, "a labor of love-" To ac-
complish this admirable object these
earnest and devoted women are will
ing to sacrifice much, devoting both
their time and attention to the effort
In return for which they only ask
the cooperation and assistance of the
Christian people of Texarkana, realiz-
ing, as they do, thst without such
assistance and sympathy, their efforts
however earnest and untiring. must
prove futile. That such aid will glad
ly be given them, we feel assured
both because of personal merit Oh
their part and the inmate excellence
and worth of their Christian endeayoi
in behalf of weak and perchance
friendless humanity.

will be remembered that Bloodworth
was arrested ON the charge of having
set fire to and burned the Ferguson
House, the leading hotel of Tyler, ol
which the accused was joint proprietor
with B. G. Rawley, the arrest being
made upon Rawley's evidence, who, in
lieu of the promise of Judicial elem
ency, turned States evidence and
made voluntary confession of the
most startling and eliminating kind.
1t was that he and Bloodworth
went into the saloon and hotel busi-
ness to make money, honestly if they
could, dishonesty is they must. lie
said that failing to make it honestly,
they proceeded to discover some plans
by which they could make it other
wise, and decided to rent the Fergu-
son, which was then vacant, put in
some furniture, take out excessive in-
surance, and then make their Jack"
by burning the house. He detailed
how they arranged to start the fire
without being discovered or detected.
Putting some mattresses by the win
dow of the third story room to pre-
vent the fire from being discovered,
they took the mattress filling, scatter
ed it over the floor saturated the floor
with coal oil, had some rich pine
which was to catch fire, took can
die which they put on keg, lighted
the candle, closed the door and went
out to await results. The candle was
not expected to burn down before IL
or II o'clock at night, but did and
ignited the other combustables by 6
p. m,
The trial has proven one of the
most exciting and interesting ever
witnessed in that city, and the acquit-
tai of the defendant Bloodworth, in
the face of such damaging evidence as
that given by Pawly, is the subject OF
great rejoicing among his friends and
former business associates. Blood
worth's acquittal was secured by the
impeachment of Pawley which was
successfully accomplished on the
testimony of the leading citizens Of
Tyler.

more dangerous and his rawlings of
far more violent order than was at
first anticipated. His lease on life is
declared to be extremely limited. DR..
Atwood, of the Bloomingdlle Insane
Asylum, where the noted patient is
confined, declares that he cannot last
longer than two or three weeks in his
present condition. The number of
brilliant dramatic lights which have
in this way gone out is something ter
rible even to contemplate. William

Hewes, the Magician.

In describing an entertainment CIV
en- by this wonderful master Of the
magic art, al the opera house in Dal-
las, the Dallas News has this to say:
at would be long, tedious and use
less to particularize the advertisement
of sleigbt-ofhand feats which consti-
tuted the first part of the entertain
ment They were interesting and
puzzling, and exemplified the wonder
ful proficiency that may be attained
only by years of assiduous study and
practice In the magic. Worthy of
commentator among the several in-
comprehensive illusions, was the "de-
capitation scene" In this startling
deception lady is seated in full view
of the audience. Her head Is appar-
emily cut OIL placed upon II pedestal
and made to speak: At the touch Of
the magiclan's wand IL returns to the
body and the whole figure is then
transformed like flash into white
pigeons. The Illusion was truly
weird and mystifying. Chief, prob
ably, among the many astonish-
ishing situations was Nine. Claire In
her mysterious spiritualistic seance.
In addition to the above Prof Hewes
essayed many other battling, yet fasci-
mating tricks, that challenged admira-
tjon.v

PROTECTIVE ORGANIZATION

A proposition has been submitted
and we believe generally accepted by
the railway officials of the several ad-
joining states of Kentucky, Tennessee,
Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, Ala
bama and perhaps Arkansas, to form
an association of all the railroads in
those states which are known on the
Interstate Commerce Commission
map as group "V," into what shall be
known and designated as the Railroad
Companies Protective Association.
This organization to be controlled and
managed by a governing committee
consisting of six or seven presidents
of railroads-one from each state
who shall meet and fix the compensa-
tion to be paid to officers and employ
es in every branch of the railroad SER
vice; the governing committee to meet
quarterly at some central point. All
applications for increased compensa-
ton in any branch of railroad service,
where such compensation exceeds $35
per month, or $l,35 per day, to be re-
ferred to this committee, who will act
and determine upon all such applica-
TONS
The object of this association is to
fix fair and just compensation for SER
vice performed, and to devise, as far
as practicable,a uniform scale ofpay for
employees for all of the roads in the
six states referred to, according to the
service required Of employees in every
branch of railroad employment. 1t is
proposed to have the board of direc-
tors of each railroad company confer
the power on the members of the gov
erning committee to act for such road
in all matters pertaining to the fixing
of compensation for all employees in
the service of such company. If some
better plan can be devised, il will re-
ceive attention.
The plan is beyond all question an
excellent one, and if legitimately car
ried out will eliminate many of the
most vexed and troublesome questions
from the railway problem. Under
such an organization, if fairly and
equitably administered, strikes and
other kindred troubles between the
employer and the employe should be-
come Il thing Of the past, und all diff
ferences which have heretofore led
thereto speedily and satisfactorily ad-
justed by just and fair adjudiction.
Indeed, the possibilities of such an or
ganization for the general good ought
to recommend its adoption by every
state in the Union where concurrent
action with other states is at all FEAST
BILE or practicable.

Splendid Musical Entertainment.

The famous cantata, Joseph, which
for the past month has been under
going continuous rehearsal under the
able direction of Prof. Evans, will be
rendered at Ghio's opera house in
this city on next Thursday evening,
the 23rd instant The entertainment
is to be given under the auspices Of
the Y M G. A of Texarkana, and be-
yond all question will prove one of the
most extensive and elegant musical al
fractions Of the season. Over forty
persons, comprising the musical talent
of the city, are to participate in the
evenings exercises. The superior ex-
cellence of the entertainment and its
admirable and praisewortby object
should insure for its management u
crowded house. The prices are mod
crate and we trust that our people
will not fail to evince their high APP
preciatlon and hearty approval of the
association and its objects, by turning
out en-masse to witness this splendid
musical production.
