ACTUAL WORK oN THE ARKAN. sAs CENTRAL UNDER
 WAY.
Strong Indications That the Line Will Ultimately Be Ex. tendad to Little Rock
 and Probably 10
 Hot Springs.

Actual construction work is pro gressing on the Arkansas Centra
 railroad and if the promises ar,
 made good the line will be completed into Paris from Fort Smith by No
 vember. That this road will ulti
 mately be extended to Little Rock is well known to be the plau of the projectors. 4 line to Hot Springs is also on the tapis.
 Yesterdays Fort Smith Times Democrat says;
 "Work on the new railroad pro- gressed satisfactorily yesterday. By Monday they will have twenty teams at work at this place and fifty at a point near Barling Five thousand ties have already been gotten out near Charleston, and they are need, ed this side of there. When thir- teen miles have been graded, which takes the road just beyond Central, the construction train will oe put on and the rails laid to that point. Col. and Mrs. Goodman drove down to Barling yesterday and were caught in a hard ratn, and though it gave them good wetting, it in- sures the cotton crop, which the road expects to haul this fall"
 Tbe Fort Smith Elevator has this to say of the new road: "The deal between the people of Fort Smith and the promoters of the Arkansas Central Railroad was closed Mon- day night at a meeting held in the rooms of the Commercial League. Col. Goodman and Judge Larimer accepted the donations, amounting to about $40, 900, on condition that right of way over certain tracts of land be secured. The latter was 9 very important question, for near the city and several miles beyond are numbers of tracts, over which it has been almost impossible to secure the right Of Wa Two somuls s5ces were appointeu seage these i'm portant concessions. One consist ed Of Wharton Cavuaii '. J.iWright, T. J. Smith and Georea SeDgei, and the other of George kI sparks, Wiz liam Blair, A. J Grier and Pa O'Shea.

A FREE SCHOLARSHIP FOR
 THEM ALSO.
It Is h the Pine Bluff Industrial Institute, of Which Father Lucey Is at the
 Head.

Through an arrangement made with Father Lucey. the Gazette offers free scholarship in the Color ed Industrial Institute, Of Pine Bluff, conducted by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, to the colored person. l male or female, who receives the highest number of votes on ballots clipped from this paper. The first ballot will be printed tomorrow.
 The scholarship is good for two sessions of five months each, board and lodging, and tuition in any branch, including literary course, with bookkeeping and drawing, in- strumental music, cooking and housekeeping, and sewing. Other privileges go with the scolarship which cannot be fully explained in this announcement. The cash price of the scholarship is $155.
 The Colored Industrial Inststute is now the largest and finest college of the kind in the State The enroll ment is over 200 each year. Two medals and two diplomas were awarded the school by the national commission of the educational de- partment of the Worlds Columbian Exposition, Chicago. One was given for superior literary work. This was the highest award given to any home or foreign school at the great exposition. Every teacher of the in- stituts received a diploma.
 The Colored Industrial Institute offers the highest and most practical education by the very test teachers.
 The following are the board of directors of the institution:
 D. C. Bell, w. D. Jones, F. M Lucey Ferd Hayis, Wiley Jone, ". P. Grace and J. NJ. Oracle.
 more liberal or better offer was never made to the colored people of Arkansas, and the Gazette expects large numbe of the colored people to subscribe for the paper ill order to obtain the coupons-Ark. Gazette.

succeed in effeeting their object.
 Work has al eady begun on the line. There will be no sub contract ing. Operations will be conducted under the supervision of Col. Good man and Judge Larimer, and will be pushed rapidly from different points on the line. It is confidently ex- pected that Charleston will be reached by October 1, and Paris by October 15.
 We think all who have been ac- tive in furthering this enterprise are entitled to congratulations. Col. Goodman and Judge Lalimer have been more liberal than our people had a right to expect them to be, and they have shown more than an ordinary degree of patience during the delays to which they have been subjected. The committees both in the city and in the country along the entire line Of th0 road have labored ardously and unceasingly, and now that the desired object is in sight, they have a right to con graduate each other and them selves.
 But the counties of Franklin and Logan have done better than Sebas- tian. Had Sebastian shown as much zeal as her sisters dirt would have been flying long ago. In Franklin county Col. J. P. Falconer, Hon. T. A. Pettigrew, Col. V. V. Beavers and Major A. s. Cabell were especially active, and their part of the work was completed long ago. In Logan county Mir. W. M. Greenwood, MT. Riggerstaff and others have been equally active When the road is completed we pro- pose to have these gentlemen come up dHO doSISI uo III euC Neob uCllOn of keg of nails. We'll go down later and eat barbecued OK with them.
 "This is simply the beginning of a railroad which has great possibili- ties. We have good reason to be- lieye that at no distant day it will be pushed on to Dardanelle, aud from there several fields are open.
 An extention in the direction sf Hot Springs is not an impossibility, and there are several other points more accessible and presenting equally as good q range for opera tions.

.THE TRADES PARADEI
A BIG DAY FOR PINE BLUFF
 WILL SOON BE HERE.

The County Exposition.

The GRAPHIC desires to call the attention of it's readers to the County Exposition. It may not be generally known, but this ex- position is the finest thing of the kind in the South, and the display therein can be excelled by no county or State in the Union. The finest vegetables, the finest fruits, are there; cereals which are surpass- ingly fiue; luxuriant grasses, grain, nuts, atc., all of which were grown in Jefferson county, are there, and as whole, or in part, theiexhibit is the peer of anything of the kind ia the South. 1t has done great good. and many strangers daily visit tho building and wonder greatly at the mammoth vegetables, U fruits, etc., which they see; but our home peo- pie do not properly appreciate the exhibit, or at least, like they are about nearly every other home affair, they do not show their appreciation by their acts.
 Judge Bocage has labored faith fully to get the exhibits up to the present high state, and has suc- ceeded wonderfully well, and it gives him great pleasure to have people call and view his selections of the products of the fertile county of Jefferson. Give the Exposition Building call. It will repay you for lost time.
