Pine Bluff Normal Will Open.

The Pine Bluff Normal school. the state institution for colored students, has received the sum of s6.000 from the national government, being It's pro rata of S25000 annually turned over to this state from what is known as the Morrill, fund It is said this sum will enable the school to run the ensuing scholastic year. 1t was thought for a while that the failure of the appropriation act of 1903 to become a law would invalidate the quota received from the Morrill, fund, but now that the money has been paid over it comes at time when the Pine Bluff institution needs it. owing to the inyalidity of the state appropriation.

BOLD ATTEMPT AT
 EXPRESS ROBBERY
Two Men Conceived a Good Plan to Rob Michigan Central
 Express Car.
4 CHANGE OF SCHEDULE TIME
 UPSET THEIR CALCULATIONS.
They Carried Gut Their Programme to the Extent of Knocking One Man Unconscious and GagGinE
 Him. and Then Fled When They Found They Had Made Mistake.

Chicago, Sept 22- A bold attempt by two men to lock themselves in a Michigan Central railroad express car with the express messenger, overpower him after the train had left the yards at Thirteenth street, and then rife the two safes in the car, was frustrated, Sunday evening, when the plans of the would-be robbers miscarried.
 Expressman Knocked Unconscious
 William Ganghin. an expressman. was knocked unconscious and gagged in the express car shortly after eight o'clock in the evening, and then the men discovered he was not the express messenger, and, fearing detection. fled This is the theory of the railroad of ficials. The express messenger who has charge of the car left Chicago at 3: 30 o'clock Monday morning with one guard and about s25 900 in two safes in the car. This money it is believed was the object of attack of the two men. Ganghin was taken to St. Luke's hospital, and 1t was found his shoulder had been dislocated and he had sus- tained severe bruises. If he had not been discovered in the car in time, the physicians say, he would have smoth- cred to death because of the gag in his month.
 Police Investigating.
 The police are Investigating the case. Nothing was taken from the ex- pressmen and the property in the car was untouched
 It was at first though that Ganghin was attacked instead of Harry Orr an other employe in the yards, who had trouble with discharged employe re- recently.
 The police were summoned. and Ganghin was taken to the hospital. but 1t was not until the expressman re- vived and told Of the mysterious at tack that the attempted robbery theory presented itself. When the officials of the railroad and express companies learned of the affair they began an in vestigation. Ganghin says nothing was taken from him by the robbers, which leads him to believe he received the beating intended for Express Messen- ger Hall.
 Cars nre Well Armed.
 According to the railroad officials, eight or ten weapons are usually kept in the car. Every evening. except Sun day, the car leaves for the east at 9:30 o'clock. At S:3o, the time of the at tack last night, Hall, with an assist ant loads the money into the car, and, entering. locks himself in. On Sunday eveing the train does not leave until 3:30 a. m., and it is believed the change in schedule on Sunday, of which they did not know, frustrated their plans

sidered the Oldest creations of
man, the discoveries made in
Central America during the last
quarter of a century by lie Plon-

directly to a much older civiliza-

Statistics published by the National Bureau of Education show that the high schools in every state of the union are graduating more girls than boys-SOme of them twice or three times as many. The whole number of boys in attendance at public high schools in the United States in 1898 was 189, 9,1S7; of girls, 2O6, ,413. Be- cause of the growing tendency to take boys out of school early in order to put them into business, girls are get ting more schooling than boys-Santa Ana Herald.
 It is only few years since. it was not considered necessary to give the girls an extended education. Now the graduates of the high schools are mostly girls, and the fu- ture mothers of our country are to be more highly educated than hereto fore. Hence We may look for more rapid intellectual strides on the part of the people of our country than ever before.
