MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE

Frank "Stolliker, a young man, for merly of Detroit, Michigan, but for the past five months in the employ of C. j. Saenger, mysteriously dis appeared Friday night and his where abouts are yet unknown. He left behind a letter to his friend David Hare, bequeathing him his earthly possessions, consisting of clothes and a policy for $1,000 in the New York Life Insurance Company
 In this communication, the de parted man said that he was tired of life and trying to do right, intimating that he had decided to take his own life. He did not commit himself in this letter however to suicide and the general opinion of those who knew him is that he has betaken himself to parts unknown. His liabilities are in the neighborhood of $50, his creditors numerous, while his clothes and other assets will not cover the indebtedness. MT. Saenger has his insurance policy for $1,0O0 however, but without fur ther proof that Stolliker has com mitted suicide or by other means lost hls life, the company would undoubt- edly refuse payment
 StoIliker was about 24 years of age, crippled and compelled to use cane. In stature, he measured 5 feet 9 innbao Of medium build with regular features, blue eyes and dark hair. He came to Newport on the 2Oth of last April and the last seen of him was when he left the tailor shop about o'clock Friday night.

STORY OF ROADS SALE.

An official confirmation has been received of the transfer of the Searcy & Des Arc railroad to the Rock Is- land. The actual sale was made at the time the Choctaw passed into the hands of the Rock Island. The day before the sale of the Choctaw that road had purchased the Searcy & Des Arc, and consequently the Rock Island bought a line of railway which had not entered into the negotiations. A circular has been issued naming J. F. Holden as traffic manager and w, w. Wentz, Jr., general manager, both being the local Rock Island of ficials in charge of the Choctaw lines. The road runs from Searcy to Des Arc, distance of twenty-eigh miles.

 This important discovery was made today by Deputy Secretary of State Q. C. Ludwid and John R. lobe, state printing clerk, who with other mem- bers of the auditors and secretary of state's clerical forces, have been can wasting the returns of the election of September l.
 It has been believed that the amend ment was defeated.
 The vote was as follows:
 For amendment 45,598.
 Against amendment 43, 1882.
 Majority for. 1,616.
 It is not necessary that the amend ment should receive a,two- thirds ma 1orIty. It was decided by the speak CT of the house of representatives several years ago, when the question arose on another amendment. that a majority of those voting on the sub lect was sufficient to adopt, and that rule has since prevailed.
 This will authorize the legislature to place their members upon a salary instead of per diem.
