For the New Capitol.

Little Rock, Ark, April 23.- At no time during the session has the prospects of the new state capitol been brighter than now. The fact that after so much ap- parent opposition, only eight votes were cast against the bill on it's final passage in the House, is most encouraging. It is gen erally beleived thatit will be fore ed to all issue in the Senate to- morrow and passed at once, as is known that a majority of the members of the body are favor able to the measure. Gov.
 Davis will then have five days to pass upon it, and should he decide to veto it, there would be time left in the remaining twelve working days in the legislature to pass it over his ve- to, since the majority is so over- whelming. Should he approve 1t, and he has not indicated that he would not, since the features of the old law to which he so strenuoulsy objected have been eliminated, he would have no time to make the appointment of the commissioner provided for, and the house and senate to con- firm them. Haste is imperative, since so much remains to be done in order to perfect the act.

those who have not.
 Our people should not forget that the guarantee committee must go down in their own pock-. cts for this 1,306.40, notwith- standing the fact they were the heaviest subscribers in the first place, every dollar of which has been paid. It is not even yet too late for those who feel that they have been profited in common with other subscribers to come to the relief of the committee. All realize the fact that the building of railroad and the establish ment of a depot in our town is of inestimable value and that all will share it's benefits whether they gave one cent or not.

COUNCIL DOINGS.
New Council Organizes On Last
 Monday Night.

Monday Night.
 The town council held special meeting Monday night for the purpose of closing up the busi- ness of the old council for the past. year.
 The following bills were allow ed and ordered paid:
 l.. E. Harbert nails S2.O3; Rhodes & O'Neal nails S2.3O; w. T. Carter, building two bridges on Ninth street S30.00; Dr. Har- bert S25 for a lot on Phillips avenue, in exchange for the Payne lot on south side of the square; w. F. Orrell marshal salary S11.25; s. R. Hanby for lumber S12.60.
 Alderman Burney introduced Ordinance No. 35. The rules were suspended and the ordi- nance was read second and third times. On the question, "Shall the ordinance pass?" The fol- lowing voted aye, Burney, Plum mer and Wise, and the following g voted nave, Harbert; so the ordi- nance was passed.
 The report of the recorder for the past year was read and ac- cepted. The treasurer being sick, he was given further time tomake his report.
 The resignation of Alderman Jernigan was presented. by the recorder and the same was &C., cepted.e This was. quickly fol- lowed by the resignations of AL dermen Burney and Hummer in quick succession. This left only two aldermen on the council, l, whereupon A. J. Cox, A. J. Tabor and. T. O. Walker filed their certificates of election as alder men for the ensuing year and the oath of office was adminis- tered and they were duly induct- ed into their seats as members of the town council. c. c. O'Neal was sworn in as recorder. A. J.. Russell again qualified as mayor, Tuesday morning.
 By operation of law Aldermen Harbert and Wise willsAeantiaue to serve in that capacity until their successors are elected and qualified. It will be remembered that at the recent town election only three candidates, Cox, Ia bor and Walker, were elected , there being three ties, Ramsey, Porter and Blasingame, for the Eother two places. Thus the new council was practically organized without the complete retirement of the old.
 The present year is regarded by all as one of much importance to the town and that 1t will cover an era in which much can ;!ibe done to keep, Green Forest in the line of progressive townss conse- Tquently the. people of the town will expect a safe and conserva- tive administration from the new council.
The Green Forest tribune., 1901-04-27

At this point six masked men boarded the train, but were not seen by any of the train crew. When point half a mile west of Iron Mountain crossing had been reached the messenger, Meader, started to cross from the first car to the other, where the express safes were, as. he had finished arranging the baggage. As he opened the door he found himself staring into the barrels of two revolvers and two shotguns. Four men were standing upon the platform. He was immed- lately grabbed by one of the rob- bers. His pistol, which he car- ried in a belt around his waist, was taken from him.
 About this time the train began to slow up and came to a full stop. Then shooting began. The two men who had boarded the rear of the second car captured Sidney Drew, the train porter, and made him uncouple the cars at that point. The engineer and fire men had been taken care of by this time. Under orders from two of the men, who had mount ed the cab, the engineer, John son, started the locomotive and ran it with two baggage and ex- press cars about half a mile. The place where the cars stopped is in the midst of dense cane brake and ten or fifteen miles from any habitation. The. track is raised fifteen feet above the surrounding country. When the engine stopped George Ward, a boy who had been riding upon. the blind baggage, sprang off and started into the woods. A shot from one of the robbers brought him back to the train. Then "Open the local safe or we will kill you," was the order given to the messenger by one of the rob- bers, who seemed to be leader. He was very calm. The other three were very much excited and worked as if they were anna teurs. The messenger obeyed, and one of the men who carried a sack, placed all the contents of the local safe ill it.
 One robber stayed to guard the. two prisoners, the other joining the two in the express car, where they were at work upon the through safe, which was locked and could not be opened until Little Rock was reached. The robbers had about pint of nitro- glycerine and poured it in the crack of the safe. When every thing was ready all left the car and the explosion followed. The door of the safe was blown off and hurled twenty feet away, strik- ing tree trunk. The robbers re- entered the car and it was the work of only a few moments to transfer the contents to the sack. Everything was taken. The rob- bers then jumped off and with a few parting shots disappeared in to the eanebrakes.
 The engineer ran back to the rest of the train as soon as the coupling was made, started at full speed for Edmonson, twelve miles away, the nearest telegraph station, where the robbery was reported to the superintendent, John H. Harris. The superin- tendent immediately wired. to the convict camp at Hubert, five miles this side of the scene of the holdup, asking that the blood hounds there be placed upon the trail of the bandits. Rewards will be offered.

 the railroad company.
 EA partial review of the work hat this committee has had on
 nds for the past year and a IAlf might be interesting.
 When the railroad question was Fought before our people it will N remembered that the company list asked of Green Forest a Pnus of S2,5O0 and the right of &y through Hickory and Car-
 lton townships. Our people se- eted a committee consisting of
 J. Russell, F. O. Butt, c. B. Fim, G. R. Blasingame, w. T. 2fay and l.. E. Harbert to take He matter up with the railroad &ople and close the deal. Great
 essure was brought to bear
 lon our people that unless Green Brest gave the proper assistance
 lat the railroad company would 8t feel under any obligation to E give us a depot, or not to en-
 ge in the building of a rival
 ~n. This stirred our people to &tion and the sum of 3,035 was 4bscribed by our people with hich to meet the bonus and pay br right of way.
 @The committee me with the Ticials of the railroad in Decem- &r, 1899, and perfected deal ith them whereby Green Forest @s relieved of giving any bonus, Es were only asked to deliver to 
 5 g.alraiFlroad .alra company the right ssWay through .Carrollton and |gelkofy townships.
 29|f0 secure this promise of the
 nmittee, the railroad company @uired bond from the people N Green Forest that such right E way would be furnished with nt any expense to the railroad mpany, and a guarantee bond As signed by A. J. Russell, F. @ Butt, G. R. Blasingame, A. Aasingame, c. B. Grim, c. H. hauncJ, l.. k. Harbert, T. o. RRalker, < W. T. Gray, G. V. .Poy- or, M. $. Coxsey, G. w. Cox " and J. E. Harbert.
 This was followed by long and Resome work by the committee @uring right-of-way for a dis mce of about twelve miles. pme of the most valuable right E way on the line was readily pnated to the committee, nota- N among which were that of o. N P. Grim, A. Blasingame, w. N Emmett and Vim. Miller. Ne committee succeeded in mak- Eg settlements with the land Rners along the line to the mount of S1 ,839, which has all Zen paid.
 The railroad company brought kit to condemn the remainder hicn resulted in judgments and bsts to the amount of S2306. 40, | |&king a aotal expenditure for Eht- way of S4, ,145.40.
 Dn Tuesday the committee @de another payment of S1 ,OO0 Ewing yet due the company the 1 Am of S1306.4O..

fore students,

Marriage. celibacy and politics occu-
pied the attention OF DR.. Z. Ben jamin
Andrews. chancellor OF the University
Of Nebraska. in his lectures to the stu
dents OF the University of Chicago the
other day. Many bachelor school.
maam was made happy and many a
young man went away from the lecture
with lighter heart when the pro-
fessor declared that celibacy was not
a disgrace and that there was no rea-
son on earth why a man or woman
should not live single through life and
become as great and respected a mar
ried persons. He quoted statistics to
show thatas many great men and great
women who had never been married d
achieved worldwide fame as those who
had married, --~--
"Ceiibacy can no longer have the fin
ger Of scorn pointed at it," said Prof.
Andrews. Times have changed and
men and women who live the celibate
life now are a much honored and may
live in such manner as TO be is much
respected as those who lead the we'd
ded life. In the olden times a young
woman considered that she was dis
graced and had failed In life If she did
not marry, but now women have
learned that they can perform a mis-,
sion in the world whether they are
married or not II they do not look
after homes of their own they give
their attention 10 charitable and be-
nerolent work and thus add to the hap

TEST OF A NEW COFFIN.
Chicago Company Claims IL Has q
Box IN which Bodice Can De Pre-
served for Ages.

By an invention of Chicago casket
company, the company claims it was
shown dusing test OF an air-tight
metal casket that the human body can
be preserved for countless ages. The
demonstration and test of the new
casket were made at the company's
Offices before an interested crowd of
undertakers and others.
The new casket is made Of rolled
sheet steel. Weighing less than so
pounds. 1t was filled with over 500
pounds of water Sunday night, which
was allowed to remain in the coffin
until the time set for the test. During
the interval not drop of water eA-
capped from the casket.
Undertakers who witnessed the test
predicted that it would cause a revo-
luton in the present system of bury
ing persons who had died from con-
tagious diseases. Heretofore 1t has
been impossible to obtain air-tight
caskets, and consequently 1t was i'm
possible to make public funeral 81

that body that had BEEN buried for
over two years in metal coffin had
been eIhumed and found to be in the
same condition as it was at the time
