MAJ. ]. I. W. PILLAR
Will Probably Build Us an Opera
 House on Barraque Street.

Maj, J. T. ". Tiller, the capi talist, plan ter. merchant and excel- lent citizen of Arkansas generally, is in the city today.
 He came here to look into the matter of converting his two large store houses, situated at the corner of Barraque and Chestnut streets, into an opera house and thereby giving the city much need ed enterprise and an amusement place.
 Maj flller was presented the matter by Assista Cashier M. E Bloom, 0 D the Cit zeas Bank, who represents him here, as the latter believes it would be a paying in : vestment. The way Mir. Tillar and his friends here, who have signi6ed their willingness to join him with capital in the enterprise, are fgur Ing on bringing out their proposed plans, is as follows. With the aid of the boous being raised by Mr. Chas. Senyard, several thousand dollars will be used lu making the opera house oue of the prettlest in the South. This is very fine location for play house aod we hope Mr. Tillar will decide to build it there.
 It is now most likely that the pro- posei enterprise.is assured for Maj. TiIIar this afternoon ordered plans and specifications drawn up for the work.

MAY I5 IS THE DAY
The Cotton Belt Will Begin Through
 Trains to Chicago.

1t has been given out officially by one of the head officials of the Cot ton Belt that that road will soon in- augurate a through passenger and freight service from Fort Worth. Texas, to Chicago, Ill.,, via the Chi eago and Eastern Illinois tracks.
 This was given out through the columns of tue Graphic several weeks ago, but some were inclined to doubt the matter.
 The Cotton Belt route will enter the field for Chicago business from Texas and southeast aud eastern Arka on May l5. Oa that date it will! inaugei ate a through vesti- bnled traii service daly from It Worth to Chicago, running on the Chicago and Eastern Hin tracks at Thebes, H., which is on the Mississippi river above Cairo and opposite the terminus of the recent extension of the Cotton Belt. This train will prove heavy factor in Arkansas travel to and from Chicago. The Cotton Belt. with this facility to back it, will go after both passenger and freight business from the north to the south west with a vengeance.

COL. COPELAND.
The "Lecture King" Delighted Very
 Large Audience Thursday Evening.

Col. l.. F. Copeland, "The lecture king," appeared at the Merrill Insti- tute in this city Thursday night. 1t was his fifth visit here, but not standing that fact, one of the largest audiences that has gathered there this season listened to him, and all went away delighted, well pleased.
 Col. Copelard's subject on last evening was "The Perpetuity of our Nation and by his enthusias tic de- livery and patriotic interest mani fested be held the audiences apt att tention throughout. Ills lecture has no made.up or read up flavor about it.
 While evidently through out with care, the fuencey of the language, the broad and firm grasp upon prin- ciples, the logical progression Of the argumen tation, show well furnish ed and disciplined mind, ripe and ready scholarship, and make every thing fresh and strong and lively as tEe product Of the moment. The fri quent sallies of wit or humor and the rich fun, as well as apt illustra- tive force of the anecdotes, con- tribute happily to keep awake the interest and secure wearied att tention.
 Col. Copeland is polished and accomplished speaker and has many natural endowment that special ly fit him for his profession. The lecture delivered last evening, we think, will only confirm the opinion generally expressed that Col. Cope land is one of the most brilliant and successful lecturers on the plat form. His lecture was.a most happily effort aud kept the audience in a rare good humor.

VIRGINIA'S PURE FOOD LAW.

The Staunton News calls attention
to the fact that the pure food law pass
ed by the last General Assembly and
which went into effect on July LIST fs n
dead letter, because there was no an
preparation made providing for the en-
forcement of the law. This is distinct
ly unfortunate. and does not wear a
nice look on the face of it. 1t NAV
have been a mere oversight of course:
but there are always a large number
OF manufacturing firms to which pure
food laws are highly obnoxious, Since
these firms are engaged In marketing
foods that are anything but pure or
wholesome. Hardly so per cent. of tho
foods put on the market are free from
adulterants or personalities many of
which are actually dangerous to the
health of consumers, and which should
not be allowed to be sold. In order to
ascertain whether any food Is pure, 1t
is necessary to have an analysis made
of il by expert chemists. and when It
is recalled that thousands of brands
of food are on the market, it is
plain that the expense of collecting
any Analysing samples is consdera BILE
The pure food law without an appro-
nriation is therefore as futile as II
would have been without the enacting
clause. This. however. is n matter that
can and should be remedled by the
next General Assembly. There is no
consideration superior to the health of
the citizens, and it is hardly worth
while to eXpcnd millions for sanitary
measures. if our people are to be
poisoned three times a day. and with
choice assortment of toxins into the
hn rnrni N

States has been projected into n
broil. the most serious of n half cen
fury. That this was done by a Re-
publican does not matter. It has been
done. and 1t cannot be approved with
out making for the conversion OF the
Republic into a virtual elective auto
cracy. There has been since the Civil
War q gradual oncroachment OF the
Presidency on the powers OF Congress.
Give the President the war-makinE
power, largo army, thousands OF APP
pointive places in the Colonies" be-
sides those at home. and you make
him the practical master of the coun-
try. That is a result to be avoided at
all hazards. whether the President is
to be Democrat or Republican.
Tie Virginian- Pilot does not believe
It any OF Mr.. McKinley's business to
use United States troops to police
China or shoot its people, with whom
we are declared TO be at peace. It
sees nothing 10 be gained for civiliza-
ton by butchery for the mere sake OF
revenge. 1t distrusts men who pirate
of a new Crusade" for political effect.
Above all. II views with alarm the
doctrine that the President can make
war without converting Congress. and
can use the army, navy and treasury
OF the United States to prosecute that
war. alone or in conjunction with other
nations. And 1t is quite willing TO
trust to time and events to vindicate
its judgment
