Little Rock. Ark. Jan. 31.-A special
to the Gazette from Texarkana, Ark,
says:
There passed through Texarkana to-
day eight train loads of negro soldiers,
1900 in number. composing the Tenth
United States Cavalry en- route to San
Antonio. When they arrived here sew
eral of them were Intoxicated A num-
Der of colored soldiers kicked in a door

where they had broken up the furni-

and just as they reached them Rochelle
captured the leader OF the gang. AS
soon rs he did so Il hundred rifles were
levelled at him and every negro load
ed his gun. Every car window held
negro with Il cooked rifles, and the
negro escaped into the car.
The news spread and every officer in
TeXarkana and hundreds of citizens
Hooked around the soldiers, who seemed
anxious for trouble. County Attorney
Horace Vaughan placed himself in COM
municatiou with the Governor, and as
result the trains were held here for
seven hours. The negroes wanted were
kept in n car with an armed guard out
side. The trains were surrounded by
irate TcXarkanans, who were supplied
with dynamite ready to send the
negroes to destruction. The soldiers
learned of this and finally agreed to
hand over the guilty ones upon identi-
fcation but as this was impossible no
arrests were made.

PART OF KEELY's MoToR.
Thc Inventors Mysterious sphere ia
Re sold for Junk.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 1.-THE mystic
rious iron sphere that was found buried
beneath the laboratory OF the late John W.
Keely, and which was supposed to be the
source Of the strange force that operated
the famous Keely motor, now occupies a
resting place in front Of the dismantled
quarters of the inventor, at 1922 North
Twentieth Street, and will probably be sold
as junk
The place occupied By Keeiy is for rent,
Clarence Moore, son OF the late Mrs.
Bloomfield H. Moore, who financially aid
ed Keely in the development Of his alleged
motor having several days ago given up
his lease on the house, and the owner,
Daniel Dorey, mas begun repairs made
necessary by the damage done in investi-
eating the source of the inventors mystic
rious force.
Some Of those connected with the Keely
Motor Company alleged that they knew of
the presence Of the strange sphere, and
that il was used as a storage battery for
his new dynamic force. In his expert
ments Keely would attach a string or wire
to the immense mass of iron. lift it from
its trunnicns and cause it to settle gently
into an iron tripod six feet nigh. AS Kee-
lya Investigations progressed he found
that he could discard this cumbrous ma
chine for a simpler one, and. having no
use for the sphere. il was buried in the
ground where found.
