HOLD-UP ON THE I. & G. N.
The Robbers Fooled and Got the
Marble Heart.

The 7. & P. got in late this morn
ing on account of waiting at Long
view for connection with the l. b
G. N. passenger tram. We learn
from trainmen in that the l. & G.
N. passenger train was held up by
two or three bandits or train rob-
bers, near Jacksonville, Texas.
They uncoupled the express car
from the train and made the en-.
gineer pull out tor a lonely place at
which they had previously selected
to rob the same. When this car ar
rived at the designated place, they
ordered a stop, The engineer and
fireman were ordered off the engine
and the fireman was told to open
the express car door, which he did,
and was told to get in first, While
this was going on, the engineer
sneaked to the opposite side of the
engine and got in the cab and pulled
the throttle, and off the car went,
followed by a fusilade of bullets,
This caused a considerable delay.
The robbers did not succeed in Sc
curing a cent for their work,

A Case in Point.

The Texarkanian keeps its eyes
open for all the news that it thinks
will interest the public or be of SER
vice to them. A case in point.
Last Sunday the K. G. S. road ran
down fine Jersey COW belonging to
Mr.. Haynes, who lives east of town
on the Arkansas side. He had lost
this COW and had looked for the an
imal in the range about his home
aud near Rondo and had made dill
gent inquiry; but he could not get
on track of the lost animal. The
reporter heard gentleman tell
another gentleman on the street
car about Jersey COW being killed
by the road-giving the description.
The reporter put four line local
in the paper describing the animal
killed, and by this means Mr..
Haynes was apprised of the wherea-
bouts of his COW. The road will of
course pay him the worth of the
animal. We don't like to blow
about such things but this is merely
published to show what a wide
awake paper can and does do for
the local public.

HOW TO LIKE WAGNER.
Scenic Accessories Are Necessary 10
Al Perfect Retaliation.

Perfect Realization.
The strict Wagnerlte refuses to hear
the music of his favorte composer in
the concert room. 1t was never intend
ed, he will tell you, to be performed by
itself, but tc be played as an accompa-
niment to the action, for the purpose
of heightenng the effect of the intense.
ly dramatic situations coupled with
gorgeous stage pictures that are in
separable from Wagner's famous art
work
The most important part Of a Wag-
ner opera, according to the composer
himself, is not the music, but the
drama, which, indeed, the beginner
should closely follow with the aid Of
the book Of words, since the music is
usually sung in German words.
The intending Wagnerlte should also
begin with the masters most popular
works, "Tannhauser" and "Lohengrin."
He will then at once recognize the IA
miliar music he has already heard so
often at concerts, and, struck by Its
beauties, he will attend many perform
ances of these two. Next year he will
want to hear these again supplement-
ed by Tristan und Isolde" that won.

intense emotion and passion. Having
heard 'Tristan" and liked it, he there
upon becomes a full fledged Wagnerite
in the true sense, and the season after
he attends performances Of the "Rlng
der Nibelungen," or he may make a
supreme effort to get to Baireuth.
From Baireuth he returns the ardent
disciple Of a musician whose name he
terrifes his friends by prOnOuncing in
the German fashion, not Wagner, but
