nor patriotism, but success, only sue
cess" II shall get some to listen to
the music of the harp" was Miss Sui
livan's reply.
Miss Sullivan has got many to listen
to the music of the harp. Lady Aber-
deem heard Miss. Sullivan play the
harp, and this Scotch lady, more SYM
pathetically Irish than are some Irish
leaders, said, "Come to the Worlds
Fair at Chicago and there they will
listen to your wild, weird Irish harp"
When the Worlds Fair was over, the
invitation was, "Come to Canada, and
in Canada they will listen to your
Irish harp" The next invitation was,
'Come to New York and to Washing
ton. and in New York and in Washing
ton they will worship the music of
your Irish harp" Then came the I'M
mistakable. voice from the Northwest,
Come to st. Paul ana to Minneapolis,
and in both cities they will be delight
ed to hear your harp"
You have heard it today and I have
10 doubt you have heard it with pleas
ure and delight. Now I beg to sug-
gest that we endeavor to share with
others less fortunate than we the
pleasure we have already experienced.
This / would venture to say would
best be done by holding a high-class
concert in which a prominent feature
would be Erin's harp tuned and touch
ed by a sympathetic daughter Of Erin.
Such concert can be got up if the
clorgynen and ladies' present desire it:

 The President appointed the fol lowing committee to act in concert with the Executive Board in carrying out the arrangements for the annual meeting of the A. F. w. c. at Pine Blu:

MASHED TO DEATH.
ALBERT SHAW, A WELL KNOWN
 NEGRO, KILLED ON A TRAIN.
Was Beating His Way to St. Louis Lumber Fell on Him Near
 Little Rock

Albert Shaw, well known negro upholstef of ohis city, met death in rather mysterious and unusual man. her near Little Rock Saturday nlght or Sunday morning while on board an Iron Mountain freight train. Shaw was en route to St. Louis, where his brother, who formerly resided in Pine Bluff, owns and operates two saloons. lie had been promiSesd a position by his brother and closing up his busi- ness here in the way of collecting all monies due him, he boarded a ffelght train in an effort to beat his way to St. Louis and thereby save his money. When the freight train reached Little Rock Sunday morning Shaw was found by one of the train | crew buried beneath a lot of lumber that bad been shifted from if ear adjoining the one upon which he wae riding. When his body was found. S5o i'll cash was in the pockets of his 1 trousers. His dead body was bathed 1 in blood and his face and chest wera badly mashed. The remains were brought here Sunday night and pre- pared for burial at McFadden's un- dertaking shop.
 Albert Shaw was a polite and nara working negro. He was well Fixed by our white residents and was continually employed by them 10 do upholstering Work. He was for sey erai years employed by local furni ture houses and proved valuable emnloye He was single but leaves mother and several brothers and sisters.

teristic of these organizations.

teristic of these organizations. MT. Knox is chief counsel for the Carne- gie Company, and was the leading at torney in organizing the great steel trust, whose methods are so out rageous that even the Republicans are talking of repeating the tariff duties on it's manufacturers in order to bring it to terms. It would undoubt- edly be the duty of the new Attorney General to proceed against this and similar organizations under the Sher- man antitrust law. The sort of fig ure MT. Knox would make picking flaws in the work that he himself de- signed and carried through may be imagined
 There may be some question as 10 whether MT. Knox can readily take the place. As chief counsel for tbe Carnegie interests he would have to make a sacrifice of income to great extent, but he is reputed to be several times millionaire, and in any event the trusts would not let inc money question stand in his way It was thought that as MT. Knox is the Car negle attorney, and as his partner is president of Carnegie's Bessemer railroad, the law firm might be so tied up in the big steel transaction that It would be impossible to consid- CT the Cabinet offer for some time yet. However Attorney General Gr1ggs kindly offered to remain in the Cabinet for a little while after March 4, possibly until the Porto Rlean cases are decided, thus enab- ling MT, Knox to take time to dispose of his complicated legal interests in the Carnegie works.
 MT Knox IS of course an able law yer, but this is all the more proof that by advocating the trusts, he can do more harm as Attorney General, Plttsburg people say that he has done Yer ylittle for years except to look after the legal affairs of the great Carnegie corporation, which of course Is convincing evidence of his ability. for the Garnegies would never em. ploy an incompetent man. He was talked about for Attorney General When President MciKpIoy r,oo ~ lzlng his first Cabinet, his name hay Ing been suggested by Senator Quay, put 1t was crossed off the list because at that time his clients were mixed up Tn bad mess at the Navy Depart ment over a lot of imperfect armor

THE LAST WEEK.
 CONGRESS-. There Will be Great Rush to Pass Appropriation Bills With
 Fierce Contests.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25-The last week of the congress in the house will be mainly occupied with confer ence reports on the appropriation bllls and other measures being fought over by the managers of the two houses. The last of the general ap- propriation bills went to the senate Thursday and the house has it's decks pretty well cleared for the fin al clash With the senate, some of which probably will be exceedingly fierce. The last six days of the ses- sion are suspension days and it is always possible to bring the house to vote on any proposition to suspend the rules, which provide for only twenty minutes debate on a side. The leaders know that it would be a waste of time to send any further legislation to the senate at this time and their efforts will be directed to. ward clearing up the matters in dis pute between the two houses. Ii probably will be necessary to hold night sessions during the latter part of the week and both houses will sit next Sunday to continue the legiSla- tive day of Saturday.
 Much Work for the Senate.
 The army appropriation bill will early receive the attention of the senate. It is probable that the army bill will be debated at length, espec- lally upon the Philippine amendment and the amnedment relating to Cuba, ifthe latter is introduced as proposed. These amendments either of them will be made the basis of a number of speeches, as it will serve to open up the entire question of the rela- tions of the United States to the I Islands
 It is hoped that the sundry civil bill can be taken up next If it is not in shape to be considered the river and harbor bill will probably receive 1 attention. The general deficiency is l likely to be the last of the general appropriation bills to be acted on
 Conference reports will be made form time to time during the week Some of these will create consider able discussion. The. eonferees on the war revenue reduction bill expec, to make their report this week.
 Of the appropriation bills only two the pension and urgent deficiency have been signed by the president Both houses have passed the legisla tive, Indian District of Columbia naval, agricultural, Notifications, post office and diplomatic bills, and they are in varying states of conference The army bill and rivers and harbors sundry civil and genreal deficienc, bills still remain unattached by the senate. The probabilities are al against getting up the Nicaragua can al bill.
 The senate will continue to meet a II o'clock each day and probably vii sit every night of the week.

A BIG COTTON FIRE
WAS NARROWLY INVERTED THIS
 MORNING.
seventeen Bales More or Less Dam aged-caused by Spark from
 Switch Engine.

seventeen bales of cotton stored on the south walk of the Gillespie & Bro. Grocery Company's warehouse corner Chestnut and Third ayenue caught fire Monday morning. anJ had II not been for the presence of se1- eral people, a large eonfagratiop would have resulted, as a largo num- Der Of bales of cotton were along tEa walk and the flames spread rapidly MT. E. R. Willlerford was standing on a bale of cotton nearby at tho time and he is confident that the fire was caused by a spark from a Cotton Belt switch engine, which was doing some switching along the avenue at that point. He said the engine had hardly passed before flames shot m from the cotton and went from one bale to another.
 The seventeen bales of cotton were not totally destroyed. but were more or less damaged. The fire depart metns were called to the scene and eXtlnguished the fire. The cotton was recently sold to the Speers Company by MT. A. W. Mum, but had not been delivered. The loss is covered by in surance, equally divided in the Bell Vernon, Wells and Tankersley Rob- erts agencies
