ASSASSINATION
AT ROCHELLE.
One Nan Mortally and Two 9th
ers Severely Wounded.

A terrible tragedy occurred at
Rochelle, mill town in Grant

ber of people were at the Rochelle

Der walking from the depot to the

Nugent and Fuller Thompson.
As they were making the trip
some unseen person or persons
commenced shooting at them,
with the result that Oscar Nu
gent was shot through the bowels
and will die. His brother, Bob
Nugent, was shot through both
legs and badly wounded, and
Fuller Thompson was struck in
the hand. 1t was so dark that
the assassin could not be seen.
A 3S-caliber pistol was used.
Both of the Nugents are we'll
behaved young men and have no
known enemies. 1t is believed
that the assassin was trying to
kill Fuller Thompson. Some

Mr.. Thompson is said to be
about 80 years of age.

Frisco people, through L. S.
Berg, president of the New Or
leans Terminal Company, have
made official announcement that
they have secured control of the
Louisiana and Arkansas railroad,
which extends from Hope, Ark,
to Jena, La. placing the system
about l75 miles nearer New Or
leans. This will form one of the
connecting links by which the
Frisco eventually intends enter
ing New Orleans over its own
tracks. The Frisco has closed
its options on terminal property
in New Orleans, paying s112, 1000.
Further purchases will be made.
The Frisco reaches Hope, Ark.
on its own lines. and IN .connec-
ton with the Louisiana and Ar
kansas, which runs from Hope to
Jena. La, the Frisco runs down
to point only 4 few miles west
of and parallel to vidalia, La.
It was stated by Mr.. Berg that
it was the intention of the Frisco
to build u line from Memphis
down the west bank Of the river
and between the river and the
Iron Mountain all the way to Ba-
ton Rouge, which will give them
a connection with the Yazoo aud
Mississippi Wiley there. from
which point it will run its trains
into New Orleans over the Val
ley's tracks.
1t is the intention of the Frisco,
Mr.. Berg stated, to connect It's
Louisiana and Arkansas line with
its low grade valley Inc from
Memphis at a point near Jena.
This will give-the Frisco short
line from St. Louis to New Or
leans, by way of Memphis and
Baton Rouge, low grade all the
way, upon which traffic from st.
Louis can move southwark in a
straight shoot from st. Louis,
where the Frisco has fine terini-
mails. The connection with the
Louisiana and Arkansas will also
give it q short line from the great
Northwestern grain section
through Hope and over the Lou
isiana aud Arkansas to New Or
leans. For handling the traffic
from the st. Louis territory and
from the great Northwest, whirl
is traverse.l BY the Frisco, the
Rock Island and its connections,
the line which the Frisco would
have into New Orleans could
hardly be exceIled IN point Of
directness.

Marc the Magician.

A most conspicuous example OF YER
satility is Marc the magician, musi-
clan. artist and shadowgraphist Ma
ro's magic is refined original and
strictly modern. He relies less than
any other wizard on complicated me-
chanical illusions, presenting pro-
gram in which dexterity is the fea-
ture that particularly appeals to his
audience. His sleight of hand expert
ments are presented with an elegant
ease that is captivating.
But Marc is more than a magician,
he is a musician. a veritable, virtuoso
on innumerable instruments so that
he is able to introduce in his enter
tainment musical program OF de-
lightful variety appealing to every one
who loves the magical influence OF
harmony And more than this he is
an artist of marked ability and the
pictures drawn by him on the stage
are executed with marvellous precision,
rapidity, dash and finish. And again,
last but not least Marc is probably
the greatest exponent Of the art OF
autobiography now before the public
In which he produces life like silhouet-
ties with his two wonderful naked
hands. After an evening with Marc
one is unable to determine whether
the versatile artist is most enjoyable as
a magician, musician, artist or shadow
graphist for he is simply great in each
of these four roles. He will appear In
