The announcement of Maj. w. e.
Estes, for city taxcollector of the
West side, appears in this issue of
the TExARKANIAN. There is not a
man, womon or child in the city
who does not know the Major. He
holds this office now, and his reports
to the city council have always been
checked up as straight and the
neatness of his books show him to
be a master Of neatness, His fig
ures are all plain, so. much so that
reading his manuscript is a pleas
ure rather than a task. We could
wish the Major no better luck than
that he succeed himself in this office.
We know he is well qualified, honest
and accommodating, and with these
requirements he is well equipped for
the Office he now asks at the hands
of the people.

CHEROKEE BILL,
How He Was Captured by COlOred
Man in The Indian Country.

How He Was Captured by COlored
Man in The Indian Country.
FIT. SMITH, Jan 3l.-Guarded by
four deputy marshals the notorious
Cherokee Bill was brought into Ft,
Smith tonight and lodged in the
United States jail. The manner of
his capture and his actions prior
theretofuly bore out his reputation
of being the most dangerous as well
as fearless outlaw that ever roamed
the wilds of the Indian country,
The honor of the capture is due
to Isaac Rogers, one of Col, Crump's
deputies. Rogers is clolored man
and lives five miles east of Novata
in the Cherokee nation, He had
known the outlaw for a long time,
but only within the last month has
he undertaken the dangerous task
Bill had been in the habit of call
ing at Rogers house to see his girl
who is a cousin OF Rogers, but late
ly he quit coming, owing to areport
which had reached him that Rogers
was trying to trap him, Tuesday
afternoon Bill was seen on the prai-
rie miie from Rogers house and
the latter sent his son out to tell
Bill to come, that he wanted to
talk to him about the matter Just
before dark Bill rode up and entered
the house, Rogers then gained his
confidence in so far that Bill con
sented to remain all night,
Throughout the rest of the even
ing until 8 o'clock this morning Rog
ers watched for a chance to get the
drop on the outlaw, but the latter
was not of his guard once, but sat
with his back to the wall with his
winchester across his lap, At sup
per it was the same, He was temp
ted with whiskey which had been
doctored with morphine, but he
would not drink. A neighbor Of
Rogers named Scales, who had been
staying at the house watching for
just such an opportunity, then en-
gagged Bill in a game Of cards, but
the gun was ever ready At 4
o'clock this morning Rogers and Bill
went to bed together, but when
Rogers would move the outlaw would
rouse up.
After breakfast the chance came
Bill rolled a cigarette and stopped
over to light it in the Are place
Beside him, leaning against a chair
was a poker With a movement as
quick as tightening Rogers then
grabbed the poker and dealt the
outlaw a fearful blow across the
back Of the head, He tell, but was
up in an instant and a terrible
struggle followed, Rogers and
Scales hurled themselves on him and
beat him down and finally got the
handouts on him.
He pleaded and entreated them to
release him, He promised them
money and horses and finding 1t to
no avail he began to curse them
lie was then placed in wagon and
taken to Nowata, but on the way
he broke the hand cuffs and jumped
at Scales, who had to Jump frOm
the wagon to avoid losing his gun
After that his captors kept their
guns continually levelled on him,
lie kept repeating that he could
whip any ten deputy marshals on
the open prairie If they would give
him a chance.
AT the Jail here he told a press
correspondent that he hated to be
captured by a man who Mad pro.
fessed to be his friend lie said he
was 10 years old and had beenscout-
ing for FIVE years and was not afraid
of any man alive.

CLEvELAND.s GOLD BONDS,
August Belmont and Their Floating
In London.

New York, January 3O-The con
tinued heavy Withdrawals of gold
have caused the general belief that
bond issue will have to come very
shortly unless Congress takes quick
action on the proposition of the
President for an issue of 2 per cent
gold bonds. 1t was expected that
the issue would be made this week,
but the President decided to make
one last appeal to Congress for 8
per cent gold bond before sacrifc-
ing the credit of the Government
by the sale of 4 or per cent bonds,
If Congress does not accomplish
anything this week in the direction
of the Presidents gold bond scheme
it is understood that $10O,0OO,OOO
4 per cent bonds will be issued next
Monday, or at all events before the
close of the week.
If the scheme be killed this week
the issue may come before next
Monday. Notwithstanding the
denials of August Belmont it is be-
lieved, that he will be at the head
of syndicate of foreign bankers,
which will take a huge block Of the
bonds, 1t is apparent that a large
portion of the issue must be placed
abroad if the treasury is to make
any permanent gain in gold, and in
no other way can an effectual halt
be put upon the gold export move
ment,
The withdrawal of 100000 900
from circulation will also cause an
active money market and in this
way add the check upon gold
shipments
SENATOR oooKRELL ON BONDS,
Senator Cockrell, of Missouri,
Chairman of the Appropriations
Committee OF the Senate and a
strong advocate Of silver, said to-
day it was simply waste Of breath
to assert that a financial bill along
the lines of the Presidents message
could pass the Senate, Such a
measure stood not a ghost of a
show. When told that the treas
ury gold reserve would soon be ex-
hausted unless Congress or the ex-
ecutive authorized the sale of bonds
to recoup it, Senator Cockrell said
the gold reserve could not be ex-
hausted too soon to suit him, He
had no fear that our legal tender
notes would not be received by our
people. He expressed the opinion
that the entire elimination of the
gold reserve would not so much as
create ripple in our financial sys'
tenn.

THE NEWS BY TELEPHONE.
Hungarian Service to Save the Trou
BILE or Newspaper Reading.

The telepone newspaper organized at
Pest, Hungary, has now. says the New
York Sun, been working successfully
for two years. 1t is the only news
paper of the kind in the world. 1t is
called the Telephone Hirnondo, or
Herald, costs two cents, like a printed
paper, and is valuable to persons who
are unable or too lazy to use their
ewes, or who cannot read. 1t has 5000
subscribers, who receive the news as
they would ordinary telephone mes
sages. A special wire 16S miles long
runs along the windows of the houses
of subscribers, which are connected
with the main line by separate wires
and special apparatus which prevents
the blocking Of the system by an acct
dent at any one of the stations. With
in the houses long, flexible wires make
it possible to carry the receiver to the
bed or any other part of the room.
The news is not delivered as it hap
pens to come in, but is carefully
edited and arranged according to a
printed schedule, so that subscriber
at any time knows what part of the
paper he is going to hear. 1t begins
with the night kilograms from all parts
of Europe. Then comes the calendar
of events for the day. with the city
news and the lists of strangers at the
hotels After that follow articles on
music, art and literature. The staff is
organized like that of any other news
paper, and is on duty from 7 80 in the
morning till $50 at night. After
the copy has passed through the ed
itor's hands-for the paper is subject
10 the same restrictions as ordinary
newspapers, and is liable for its com
munications-it is given to the
speakers. These are 10 men with
strong voices and clear enunciation,
who work in shifts of two at time
and talk the news through the tele
phone. There are % editions uttered
a day. Additions to the first edition
are announced as news items.
To fill up the time when no news is
coming in, the subscribers are enter
tanned with vocal and instrumental
concerts. These were at first given
for them especially in the Office of the
Hirnondo but now the wire is in
communication with the opera house
and the music halls, and on Sundays
and saints days with the churches.
The music is transmitted at times to
other places in Austro- Hungary, and
recently the "Hirnondo" microphone

from Trieste, through Vienna, Bremen
