RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
HOXIE'S LIBERAL BID.

Mrs. M A. Boas, proprietor of the Boas Hotel and owner of the townsite of Hoxie," writes a correspondent from that place, "has offered the Iron Mountain Railroad Company all nec- essary land upon which to locate roundhouse and tracks, and to erect for them $10,OOO brick depot and office building should they be unable to secure necessary land between here and Walnut Ridge; should they locate between the two places, their tracks will extend from the Frisco crossing north to Walnut Ridge, making about one-half mile trackage ln this town, right ofway for which has already been offered by Mrs. Boas and Mrs. John s. Gibson, respectively, owners of the land in this incorpora- tlon. Should Mrs. Boas' proposition be accepted the roundhouse would be located south of the Frisco crossing, and right of-way for which would all be donated by Mrs. Boas.'

MT. and Mrs. F. H. Heinrich are now keeping house at Mrs. E. R. Tyler's on Laurel Street. Mrs. Tyler and Miss Lib Chavey leave Thursday to spend the heated season in the North, the former going to Indianapolis for a four months visit, the latter to Oma- ha, where she will spend her two months vacation.
 J. M. Stayton is enjoying trip east. All the arrangements for the building of the Morning Star are now said to be complete and MT. Stayton acting under orders from President Jackson, of New York, has gone to Washing ton, to secure from the Secretary of War, permission to build a bridge over White River at this point. O'Neal Gardner, a printer by trade, who claims to have been once em- ployed by Frank Lynn and Mike Connolly on the Arkansas Statesman, which was published at Jacksonport, was in Newport Thursday looking for work. He is apparently we'll ac- quainted with all the old residents of that once live and business little town.
 The Morning Star option expires next month, and it is confidently ex- pected that it's purchase will be con- summated by the company, which has already commenced active oper- ations on the railroad from Newport to the mines Harrison Times. This verifes the old adage that oftentimes to find the news, you must go away from home.

TREASURE
House Will Be
Opened.
Railroad to Tap Rich
Territory.
Will Span the American Con-
tinent.

Quebec, Nov. 1.-The great treasure
tapped by new railroad that will
span the North American continent
and discharge its traffic at either the
Atlantic or Pacific seaboard. The
new line is called the Trans-Canada
railway and will be extended from
Quebec on the east to Port Simpson
on the west. :,
The line from Quebec to Port Simp-
son will be 24S miles shorter than
from Quebec to Vancouver by the Can
adian Pacific. From Quebec to Yok-
ohama, via Port Simpson, the distance
will be about ,722 miles shorter than
from Quebec to Yokohama via Van
couver.
AS an imperial proposition it is as
serted that the Canadian rail
way will be England's answer. to Rus
sias trans-Siberian railroad. 1t is
said that England, using the new
line, could put troops into Manchuria
for instance, four days sooner than
Russia, by using the Siberian
road, could have troops from Moscow
in Vladivostock.
1t is further asserted that England
could send troops to China or India
by the new line about three weeks
sooner than by the Suez canal.
Work on the new road was begun
on June %, 1901. Its projectors ex-
pect to have the road ready for bust
ness from one end to the other in
1907.
The road from Quebec to Port Simp-
son, town in the west central part
of British Columbia. on the Pacific
ocean will be 2,S3U miles long and the
estimated cost of construction will be
$95, $780, 900.
The officers and directors of the
road are all Englishmen and Cana
dians, with the exception of George
Earl Church, an American engineer.
The line, as projected, will parallel
the Canadian Pacific and will cross
the continent almost on straight line,
about 280 miles to the north of the
latter road. The new line will touch
the Pacific at Port Simpson. which
is said to have the finest harbor north
of San Francisco.
The statement is made that will be
news to many persons to the effect that
in the provinces oflAlberta, Athabasca
and Saskatchewan, tributary to the
road, there are the largest petromeum
fields in the world. Anu in the same
region are great field of anthracite
and bituminous coal that have never
been developed.

Il will b6 pleasant news TO their many
friends that letters have been received from
Mr.. and Mrs. w. Renwick Bradley, who
sailed from New York by the transport Nc
Ciellan ON February q for the Philippine
Islands. These letters were written on the
Atlantic and posted at Gibraltsr, and have
something OF the character OF ocean diaries.
Il will be remembered that these friends
were guests at the Park Avenue Hotel before
sailing, and that they narrowly escaped death
10 the great IRE. Each Of them had an ankle
sprained In jumping from the burning build
ing. The letters just received represent them
a. still suffering from the sprain. Mira Bradley
unable TO walk and Mr.. Bradley able TO do so
only with difficulty.
Their thrilling experience and heroism on
the night OF the fire had made them famous,
and secured for them unusual privileges and
attentions on tho steamer. The finest state
room had been allotted 10 them, and the Ink.
uries Of rich fruits and raro wines, ETC.. laviah
cd upon them. SO IL is "an Ill wind that
blows nobody good"
Mr.. and Mrs Bradley had paid the custom
ary tribute to Neptune, though the February
Atlantic bad behaved like summer sea with
the exception OF two bolsterous days. BY this
time the pilgrims are doubtless through the
N Mediterranean and Red seas, and are to-day
plungiug through the waves OF the Indian
ocean. their faces still toward the sunrise.
