MIND OF MAN.

what hath God wrought" It was
the first public message ever flashed
by telegraph. That was In 1874. The
lightning which Franklin had harness.
ed and brought from the skies was be.
come the mcssage.bearer Of man. And
the world marveled. Now a swifter
agent, the lumlniferous ether, which
permeates the furthest space OF the
universe and Is so fleet that Ii encir.

message from the American continent

rope. And again the marveling world
exclaims, what hath God wrought"
Tie greater wonder Is not telegraphy,
nor wireless communication. but the
mind Of man which conceived them
both. The laws ana manifestations OF
nature are changeless. Only the mind
and spirit Of man have progressed
His intellect has become SO acute and

Miracles abound on every side. Many
Of the lower animals are endowed
with senses so acute as to seem to
man nncanny. Fish can see In the
darkest depths OF the ocean. The
moose can hear sound for many
miles. In comparison, mans sight
and hearing are significant. But his
splendid intellect has so aided his
senses that with his telescope he can
gaze into the furthest mysteries OF the
heavens; with his microscope he can
penetrate the mlnutest secrets OF In.
fnitesimal life: with the N.ray he eau
see through his very flesh and seek
hidden disease and injury; through
his telephone he can hear the voices
OF friends hundreds Of miles away |;
and now he has spanned the vastness
Of ocean by his understanding Of the
workings OF nature. Electricity Il not
the wonder OF the age. Wireless teleg.
raphy Is not the modern miracle. The
marvellous thing which God hath
wrought Is the development OF the
mind Of man.

LITTLE ROCK WANTS CONNECTION
Business Men of the Capital City Want Direct Connection With
 White River Country

The Democrat says the business men of Little Beck are desirous of securing better passenger service between that city and the White River country. To this end they have, through the Board of Trade, taken the matter up with the va rious officials of the Iron Mountain system. In reply to a request from the secretary of the Board of Trade, Horace Baker, general superintendent of the Iron Noun tain. gives no definite promise of relief, but leaves the impression that another train may be put on the White River division to make direct connection at Newport with one of the fast trains into Little Rock.
 Complaint has also been made to Vice President C. 5. Clarke, and in 8 letter to the Board of Trade Mir Clarke says:
 This subject will be carefully looked into and it's bearings on the many interests which we serve will have merited consideration.
 After getting the necessary facts to enable us to intelligently pass upon the matter, l shall take pleasure in advising you of what can be done in the premises.
 The Democrat says that what the business men of Little Rock want, and are entitled to, is through train from White River points, direct to Little Rock with out a change of cars at Newport.
 When Superintendent H ug h Wilson was before the railroad commission some three weeks ago he stated that new train would be put on the Sth of May, but 1t was not done.

HOW TO BECOrE WEALTHY

If you are desirous of becom- ing wealthy, make some man who wants to hire good hand the fol- lowing tempting proposition:
 Offer to work for him year provided he pay you one cent for the first week, two cents for the second week, four cents for the third week, and so on to the end of the year, doubling the amount of the proceeding week each time. Surely your services would in- crease in value in a corresponding ratio, and many business men would gladly accept your terms. But we would strongly urge up- on our readers that if they ever make such a bargain, they get full security for the last payment for they will find that when it c mes due there will not be mon- ey enough in the whole world to satisfy the claim.
 The entire amount of all the money in circulation among all the nations of the world (not wealth. is estimated at something less than S15, 1000, 0,000,0 ,000, and the last payment would amount to fifteen hundred times that Am- mense sum.

GOV. TAYLOR'S SUCCESS

The defeat of Senator Carmack for election to a second term as United States Senator for the state of Tennessee is a topic of in terest in political circles. Cover nor Taylor has at last attained his ambition. Carmack will retire from the senate next March and will likely resume his profession. Before his election to the senate he had acquired considerable rep utation as an editorial writer. As editor of the Memphis Commer- cial Appeal he was known all over the Southwest.

ROAD TAX AMENDMENT ATTACKED
Cotton Belt Railroad Files Suit For Return of Tax Paid Un-
 der Amendment No. 5

Little Rock, May 16.-A com plaint and petition for restraining order was filed this afternoon in Chancery court by the St. Louis Southwestern Railway Co.,, against Sheriff C. C. Kavanaugh asking that he be restrained from paying into the county treasury the sum of S372. 51, the taxes collected by him for 1905, from the railroad company under authority given him by Amendment No. of the state constitution, known as the ''Three Mill Tax Amendment. , The company alleges that the amendment was not legally adopt ed and therefore the taxes collect ed should be returned to the com pany. The suit is based on the decision of the Arkansas supreme court of a few weeks ago, which tribunal declared that amendment No. 3 was not legally adopted and therefore void. As the other amendment, No. ,, was voted on at the same time the same rule 1t IS alleged, will apply to this case.
 4 tabulated statement showing the vote of tbe last general cleo tion on the amendment is attached to the complaint and shows that out of a total vote of 116, ,37S votes, 57,209 were for Amend ment No. , and A, 074 against the amendment, thus showing a short age of 980 votes to secure the nec- essary majority. This amendment was voted on in 1898 and should the final result of the suit be sus- tained by the supreme court, over S120, 900 will be involved from the several counties of the state which collected the tax this year.

MONUMENTS UNVEILED

Sunday afternoon the local camp ot the Woodmen of the World unveiled the beautiful monuments recently erected in the Blue Springs cemetery to the memory of the late Sovs. I. T. Miller and J. T. Barksdale. Nearly all the members were present to participate in the cere- monies, and several visiting soy ereigns were in attendance.
 A large crowd was present at the cemetery to witness the cere- monies; in fact 1t Is said by many to have been the largest gather ing of people ever seen at the cemetery on any occasion.
 The ceremonies at the cemetery were very beautiful and impress- iva
