A RARE INSTANCE.

An unusual incident, even in the
experience of a newspaper man,
was witnessed by one of the visit
ing members of the Arkansas Press
Association, during the meeting OF
that body in Little Rock, recently,
The event in question is related as
follows:
While in Little Rock last week the
writer saw a broad-shouldered, man
ly looking individual, with auburn
mustache, board the rear end of an
electric car, and remain standing
on the platform, apparently en-
crossed in deep study, until the
conductor almost rudely aroused
him with fare, please" He fshed
out nickel, and, handing it over,
turned and watched the conductor
retrace his steps to the front end Of
the car. Resuming his former po-
sition there was something in his
makeup that caused me to ask who
he was, 0Why," said my seat mate,
"that is H. G. Allis, the man who
by his indomitable pluck and energy
built this very electric railroad, and
who, until the failure of the First
National bank, of which he was
president, was the leading spirit in
every enterprise and business for
the upbuilding of Little Rock and
Arkansas. The money he misap-
propriated never benefited Allis
individually, but the city of Little
Rock is today reaping benefits from
it, " Allis was the prime mover il
putting in the splendid electric
street railway system now in opera
tion in Little Rock and was presi-
dent of it's board Of directors, and
it is certainly a rare occurrance to
see an ex-president of a stock rail
way called upon to "stand and de
liver fare just as other passengers.
such was the case in this
instance.

HELLIsH CRIME!
A Black Brute Takes a White Girl
from Her Room near the Furni-
ture Factory, Last Night.

Another atrocious and hellish
crime has been committed here by
a black brute, and our citizens are
aroused over it, and are determined
to deal swift vengeance upon the
damnable fend, if found.
About l o'clock, near the furni-
ture factory, a black devil entered
the house and room of Mr.. c. N
Harwell(who partially deaHand tax
ing his 13 year old daughter, Geor-
gia, up in his arms, carried her out
near the railroad for the purpose of
gratifying his hellish lust; it was
stated that the fend accomplished
his purpose, but young Harwel, her
brother, who works in the factory,
says he did not. The girl was bit
ten on her side, and severely chok-
ed; (signs of same still visible) says
she could not cry out for the chok-
ing, but that she bit the brute en-
the finger. After the fend left
her, she promptly gave the alarm,
and charged Joe Williams, a negro
with the crime. Marshal Stanley
Edwards, about 3 o'clock, arrested
Williams, who denied the charge,
and there is room to doubt his guilt
as his shoes did not fit track made
by fend, and there was no sign of
a bite on his finger. Williams is
now confined in West side lookup,
awaiting further developments.
Officers are doing all in their
power to find the ravisher, Or
would-be ravisher, and if he is
found there is little reason to doubt
he will soon Stretch hemp" as an
outraged public are demanding
quick justice.
At 1:3O this p m our reporter hav-
ing procured buggy, drove out to
Mr., Harwen's residence, to get ad-
ditonal information. He says that
the black fend did not accomplish
his purpose upon his daughter, that
her fighting him frightened him
away. Says he wants no violence
done, unless the guilty wretch is
found. MIR Harwell and his three
sons have been working in the fur
niture factory for three years; came
here from Tyler, Texas. He ap-
pears to be quiet, good citizen; is
respected by all who know him.

Organize Democratic Clubs.

AS "our friends the enemy" the
Populists, are forming clubs in
Beech, Cleveland and Sulphur town
ships, it behooves Democrats to be
up and doing Even if this were
not true, as is reported, Democrats
should keep fully organized, and
there is no way to do this except
through the medium of clubs Then
let us form into active Democratic
clubs, all over the county.
We would suggest that the
Cleveland and Stevenson Democrat
ic Club, of this city, be called to-
gether, at an early date for re-or-
ganization.
Our people want no Republican
or negro domination in this county,
and if Democrats go to sleep, polit-
ically, such an accident might oc-
cur,

MILLS AT THE HELM.
A Lively Tilt in the Senate Over the
Free Iron Schedule.

Yesterdays telegraphic news from
Washington, announces that the
Senate met at 10 o'clock, according
to the recently adopted resolution,
prolonging the hours of the days
sessions, but all of the Senators did
not arrive until the regular call of
the Senate was ordered Enough
however, got in about 1870 for the
business to proceed.
The discussion on the schedules
was about the same as on other
days, but as the iron schedule was
under consideration, it being a most
important one, discussion was ex-
pected So it was hardly possible
to ascertain whether or not the
Republicans had truly dropped
their policy of delay, However, it
is true that Senator Lodge, who
has been one of the front men in
fihhustering, notified one of the Re-
publican Senators who opposed di-
latory tactics that he had conclud-
ed to present no more obstructive
suggestions. 1t is given out on all
sides by the Republicans that the
Democrats shall have a vote when
the bill is discussed, and that this
will be in three or four weeks.
Today Senator PETER offered an
amendment to put iron ore on the
free list, and there was much cur
iosity to see how vote on it would
result, There were only four votes
for it. These four were Senators
PETER, Allen, Kyle, Populists, and
Senatsr Hill The latter smiled
when he voted this way and smiled
broadly when Senator Mills voted
against it,
Senators Chandler and Aldrich
consumed a good deal of time this
morning in nagging Senator Mills
about his promises of free raw ma
terial He replied and stated that
he had nothing in retract in his ad-
vocacy of free raw material SO far
as he was concerned he would like
to see every custom-house turned
into a school house to teach free
trade. He said that while he was
in favor of free iron ore he would
curb his personal desires, as they
could not be satisfied, and would
vote for a reductiomof 30 cents on
the ton. He came at Aldrich and
Chandler in good shapeN and they
got none the best of him.
At the end of the session every
thing was as vague as before so far
as the date of the passage OF the

BRIGHT STAR, ARK, May 20, '94.
EDITOR TEXARKANIAN:
The past week has developedquite
a good deal Of the hitherto latent
interest in the impending cam
paign.
Populist orators and emissaries
have been working Sulphur the
past week; also abusing Democrats
for their failure to get together To-
cally anc nationally, and redeem
the pledges made two years ago.
One Mr.. O'Daniels, well known
about Texarkana, addressed an au-
dience of about 7Opersons at Bright
Star yesterday evening, DR., Kelly,
Of Genoa, addressed Il small crowd
at Olive Branch church, the people
having met in their annual school
election. What results will attend
their tour remains to be seen. But

the Sulphur Democracy can answer
in the most effective way the dis
semination Of Populist principles
AS stated above, our annual school
election came off yesterday. Con-
siderable interest was taken on both
sides, and the heaviest vote ever
polled in this school district, as il
now stands, was polled. Every vo-

ARKANSAS RAILROADS.
New Roads to Enter and Traverse the
State, Bound Outward.

New Roads to Enter and Traverse the
State, Bound Outward.
There appears to be some very
manifest uneasiness on the part of
the Springfield (Mo.) Democrat over
the present prospect of the Gulf
railway being extended into Arkan-
sas. Treating on this subject, it
says:
"The numerous and apparently
conflicting reports about Southwest
Missouri and North Arkansas rail !
road schemes are now apparently
taking tangible shape, and some
very mysterious movements which
which have been observed recently
may be now summed up so it will
not be difficult to see where we are
at
TT is a well known fact that
both the Frisco and Gulf roads have
been anxious to get into the North
ern Arkansas territory, but were
prevented from building by a COM
pact with the Gould interests.
"There is now unmistakable evil
dence that both the above roads
have determined upon a maneuver
to break the compact whereby both
the Frisco and Gulf are to have
lines from Harrison, Ark, to Kan
sas City.
'The plan mapped out by the
Frisco is, by the assistance Of a To-
cal company, to extend the Chad
wick branch from Sparta to Harri-
son. From there the company will
build a line to Aurora, where it will
absorb the Greenfield & Northern
running to Greenfield, This line
will be extended to Kansas City,
but by what route is not yet known.
So much for the Frisco's part in
the affair,
Gas stated in the Democrat three
weeks ago, the Gulf road has leased
to the Lake Superior, Southwestern
& Gulf one of the Nettleton lines,
known as the Clinton branch. This
branch is to be extended from Ash
Grove to Marionville, Mo-, thence
south to Harrison and Little Rock,
and work is now being pushed on
the southern end of the road.
"The very complicated situation
Of affairs serves to show a motive
for the mysterious movements of
the Lake Superior Company. BY
leasing its line to that company, the
Gulf avoids breaking its letter Of
compact with the Goulds, and if
the local company succeeds in it's
intention to extend the Chadwick
branch, the Frisco will receive the
benefit Of the traffic gained, and
will at the same time be freed from
probable iniunctions from the
Goulds.
'Thus both the Frisco and Gulf
will have direct lines from Kansas
City into the long coveted terri
tory"
The Gulf is not the only railway
line seeking an outlet through this
state, where the vast tracts of rich
and undeveloped lands offer an ire
sistable attraction to the eye of the
experienced railway builder, and
whose rich minerals, inexhaustible
timber belts and fertile soil only
await the magic wand of capital to
convert their hidden treasures into
coin of the realm. Nor is Little
Rock the only objective point Tex
arkana is, herself, directly interest
ed and in line, and expects to be
pierced by one or more of these
new roads.

WOMEN IN BATTLE ARRAY.

That the war against Congress-
man Breckenridge, he of the Silver
tongue, is far from over, or rather
just begun, by the women of the
Seventh District of Kentucky, may
readily be understood, from the fol-
lowing telegraphic special, sent out
from Lexington, Kentucky, on yes
terday:
Never before in the history of
politics in Kentucky has there
been so much hard feeling manifest
over a Congressional race as is at
present noticeable in the Breckin-
ridge -Owens-Settle contest for the
nomination on the Democratic tick
ct in the Seventh District.
Every mail brings letters from
friends of Kentuckians abroad
warning them against sending back
to Congress the self-confessed adul-
terer, William G. P. Breckin-
ridge.
The trial at Washington develop
ed little of this real scandal and
few people know that while Col.
Breckenridge was cohabiting with
Madeline Pollard here and sending
her to Sayre Institute, one of the
most noted female schools in the
country, that he was trustee in
the institution.
Miss Pollard stated upon the wit
ness stand, and every one here now
believes she told the whole truth,
that she spent her nights in the
room Of Col Breckenridge at Mrs.
Ketchums boarding house. Col.
Breckenridge at the same time had
his daughters attending this school
and allowed them to associate with
Miss Pollard.
The women here are much work
ed up over the matter and declare
that Col Breckenridge shall not go
back to Congress. He, through
his appointments, has established
ring which it will be hard to down,
but women of Kentucky, when
their purity is at stake, are not to
be despised and will ultimately de-
feat him even though he gets the
nomination. The talk of having
him withdraw and running his son
Desha is all nonsense, Breckin-
ridges friends are determined to Sc
cure for him the nomination, and
they are almost certain to do it.
"Now good digestion wait on ap-
petite, and health on both," says
the great Shakespeare, but he did
not have in mind a coated tongue
or torpid liver, with all the symp-
toms of Biliousness, so common in
this country. All this, and more

A COOL PROCEEDING.
A Young German Who Needs Looking
Afer-He is Clever Deceiver.

Last Tuesday afternoon well-appearing,
blonde young man called at 1852 Pearl street,
the private boarding house of Mrs. Eliza
beth Howe, and asked if he might take a
room there. He said that his name was
Ellen, that he was clerk at the U. s..
Engineers Office, and that Col. Haines was
away and therefore he could get no recon-
mendation from him but would the next
day. He seemed 10 be quite familiar with
Portland and some of the people, though he
had told Miss Howe, at the begin ming that
he had been here but week. afterwards
that statement occurred to her as incon-
sistent with his familiarity with Portland.
He stayed that night and came down to
breakfast vers late after the others had
gone. He had said the day before that he
would bring the recommendation and IS
that forenoon, but he didn't. He stayed to
dinner. and afterwards told Miss Howe that
he would bring the recommendation at
o'clock, and send his trunk that evening.
He went and hasn't been seen since. and
undoubtedly has bummed his nights lodging
and three meals.
Inquiry at Col. Haines' office showed that
no such person was known there.
