TICKET TAKERS
 ON ROCK ISLAND.

E The recent order from Rock Island headquarters to the effect that ticket takers would be put on Nall passenger trains of the system was carried out Sunday on the Choctaw district of that road, says the Little Rock Demo- crat.
 It is Stated that it is the in- tention bf the company to make the work of the conductors easier and more efficient. and not to keep a check on them, as has been stated. It is said that the work of the conductors in taking up tickets and looking after the running of the train has worked a hardship both on the travelling public and the men.

FAST RUNNING
 ON IRON MOUNTAIN.

In this latter day when all roads are trying to lower all rec ords in point of fast trains, it may be of interest to the people, says the Democrat of Little Rock, to know that the Iron Mountain is making some of the fastest time on the main line ever seen in this section of the country. Engineer Adams of the Iron Mountain reports that with en- zine No. 1895 he made a run last week of 1O5 1-2 miles in 119 minutes. This included no less than three full stops, which will bring the actual running time down to near 106 minutes or a mile a minute.
 At the same time Engineer Mullen with engine No. 1901 made 119 miles in 150 minutes, including stops. It is said that the eastern roads will have to put on electricity as motive pow CT and run lighter trains if they desire to-keep in the lead.

HARRY DANIELS
 WAIVED HEARING.
Slayer of Doctor Magness Will Await Grand Jury to Tell His Story-Funeral of
 the Deceased.

Mena, Aug. 22. The prelimi- nary trial of Harry Daniels, the freight engineer who shot Dr. Magness to death last Friday, was called this morning. The court room was crowded. Pros ecuting Attorney J. l. Alley and Hal L. Norwood represented the state.
 The prisoner had no counsel. Upon being arraigned before Justice Sam Smith Daniels stated that he desired to await the ac- tion of the grand jury and was taken back to jail.
 In reply to question as to whether he had any statement to make. Daniels said that he had nothing to say now except that the reports and rumors as to why he did the shooting were all false. Many of these rumors are afoat but their truth or un- truth will not likely be estab- lished until the trial in Septem- Der in the circuit court.
 Dr. Magness' funeral was held this afternoon and was attended by a large crowd of friends and acquaintances. All the business houses were closed and services were held at the grave, in addi- tion to the regular services.
 Hon. Mark P. Olney and Sena- tor Hal L. Norwood delivered beautiful eulogies on the gentle ness and nobility of Dr.. Mag ness. Both speakers broke down many times. The casket and grave were heaped with flowers.

SINGER COMPANY

the conductors will have nothing in the world to do with the transportation department and will look after the management of the train only.
 The ticket taker, not having the management of the train on his shoulders, will have more time to devote to the passengers ahd incidentally will have more time to examine transportation, and in this way it is expected that the company will be gainer from the fradulent tickets and other forms of transportation which these men will discover and take up.
 In this connection it is said that close watch will be kept for the fraudulent use of passes, and whenever pass isued to one in- dividual is presented for passage by another man than that person the pass will be taken up, the passenger made to pay full fare and to give a strict account as to the manner in which he came in possession of the pass.

ROBERTS RESIGNS
 PLACE ON TICKET.
Nominee for Representative in White County Whose Name Has Figured in Lightle
 Case Steps Down.

Searcy, Aug. 22. John V. Roberts, Democratic nominee from this county for representa- tive, has resigned from the race and his name has been taken off of the ticket.
 Dr. H. c. Jones of Searcy has been placed on the ticket in Rob- : erts' place. Col. R. w. Chrisp will make the race independently.
 MT. Roberts resignation was due to the fact that his name has been prominently mentioned in connection with the Lightle case, and it was rumored that he knew more about the case than he cared to tell. There was con siderable feeling in Searcy over the matter.
 A meeting of the White county central committee was held to- day to discuss the advisability of taking Roberts name off the ticket. At first he thought of protesting against the proposed action of the committee, but on the advice of friends finally de- ,cided to step down.
 Since his withdrawal he has been uncommunicative and will not discuss his action nor that of the committee.
 Roberts maintains his inno- cence of the Lightle case and says that he knows absolutely nothing of it save in his capacity as attorney for Mrs. Laghtle.
 Beyond the fact that Sheriff Wood will return home early this morning there are no new de- velopments in the Lightle case. All,eyes are now centered in the preliminary trial, which will take place Saturday.
 1 All the men supposed to be inn plicated in the alleged plot are in Searcy and show no disposi- tion to leave.
 Dr. Lightle is stila in jail. He has made repeated efforts to se- cure bond, but failed. His rela- tives, at is stated, would be wil- ling to make bond for him pro- Wided he made a statement of the whnle affair and gave the names of those who were con- nected with him in the matter, and this he has declined to do.
