Arkansas Worlds Fair Building.


 The building 10 be erected at the worlds fair at St Louis for the state of Arkansas has been agreed upon by the state commission. Architect F. c. W. Hart, of Hot Springs, submit ted the design, which is in the style of the French renaissance. The building will be seventy-fve feet wide by one hundred feet long. The approaches to the building are per- haps the most convenient and beau tiful yet offered by state building. The building proper will be two sto- ries high. In the center of the build- ing will be the main reception hall connecting with the corridors, which extend the full length of the build ing. This reception hall will be in the form of Latin cross. On the first floor, grouped on each side of corridors, is the general man. ager's office and office of board of commissioners, governor, the lady manager and the ladies' reception room, which will be on a suite with the ladies' toilet and cloak room, the day nursery and ladies waiting room, which will be furnished and apportioned for all ladies from the state.
 state. On the opposite side of the corridor are the gentlemen's recep- ton rooms and suite with wash room, toilet and check room One entire corner of the building will be devoted to Hot Springs and Eureka Springs exhibits, which vii be admirable and calculated to arouse considerable interest. Space is also provided for any and all counties and cities which may ap- ply for 1t. The second story is de- voted to educational exhibits unclas- sifed, and the historical society and a thoroughly accoutred auditorium. While the building will cost $100,- 900, in it's actual value, piece for piece, it is proposed to have the state expend only between $20,ooo and $25,000-the balance being con- tributed for instance, one man gives so much of this kind of lumber, an- other of that, and so on, until the remainder is actually furnished by a congregation of people. The building will be built entirely of wood and stone.

 A work train of six cars was headed west, the caboose being in front.
 It was in charge of Conductor J. R. Gamble, Engineer Mayor and Fireman W. Fl. Evans. As they were passing along the track under the high bluffs bordering the river the crew saw heavy rock rolling with awful velocity down the steep declivity, having been detached from the hillside by the rains. The train was going slowly, but was almost upon the rock when it struck the track. Engineer Mayor reversed his engine at once, but 1t was so close upon the obstacle that the train struck 1t almost full force. The ca boose was at the head of the train and was shiyered into splinters Most of the men who were killed and injured were in the caboose. There was crew of fifty-four men, white and colored, and they were go- ing to point further up the road to clear slight wreck There were just back of the caboose three cars of sand, and many of the men were buried underneath the heap of sand thrown forward by the terrific im- pact.
 Five cars and the caboose were completely wrecked, and only one car and the engine left practically uninjured.
