Billy" Brought Forth
 Many Hearty Laughs

Four false teeth on a plate of gold give opportunity for much good com . edy, pathos, agonies and many en- barassments in the story of Billy" which was the offering at the Elks Theater last night by Sidney Drew and we'll balanced company. The play is in three acts without a change of scenes. The action of the play is on an ocean going steamer and the scene is most realistic. The audience was not as large as. pre- 1icted, but was satisfactory from the box office standpoint. Every line in the story is laugh producing and in the hands of a clever company. Those who witnessed the performance went there to laugh and their wish was gratified. The farce was not con- structed to be artistic.
 Sidney Drew is lineal descendant of family of actors. His wife. Phy- lis Rankin, did not appear last night in the part of Alice Hargrave, Billy's sister, as in Memphis and Little Rock The role was most acceptably taken by Miss Leonora Oakford, however, and Miss Inez Hummer, as Beatrice Sloane portrayed the ingenue part nicely. Other members of the cast who merit special mention are S. I~s~ Nichols and Prince Miller.
 MT. Drew has fine appreciation of the humorous and his portrayal of Billy" is delightful one His work is bright, breezy and bubbling with humor.

ANOTHER ROAD
 FLORIDA TO ARK. Proposition Is to Establish Helena as the North
 ern Terminus. TO BEGIN WORK SOON Actual Construction of Proposed Line
 to Begin at Meridian,
 Mississippi.
TO BEGIN WORK SOON

Helena, Sept. 22.-President B. C.. Horner, of the Business Mems League of this city, is today in receipt of a communication from Chester H. Pond president and general manager of the proposed Memphis and Pensacola Railroad Company, the trend of which is to establish Helena as the northern terminal for another great railroad system extending from Pen- sacola, Fla. to Helena, Ark, and Memphis, Tenn, the Memphis divis- ion of the proposed line to be reach ed by branch running from Acker- man, Miss, to the Tennessee metro polls.
 This letter, which is under date of September 19, expresses the utmost conviction over the possibilities out lined in the establishment of a ser- vice between the cities named. A prospectus of the proposed road ac- companied the communication which relates the right of way and counties through which the new company would blaze their trail. Beginning at Pensacola and running due north by west, the proposed new railway would touch the prominent points in Mississippi and Alabama, branching off at Alderman on the Memphis div ision, while the main line would con- tinue on to Helena, which is referred to as one of the natural gateways for an enormous interstate traffic. The letter received by Mr. Horner from President Pond is in part as ] follows:
 We are on the eve of beginning actual construction at Meridian, Miss. and hope to be under full headway in building both north and south within short time.
 T leave in the morning to meet our eastern contractors, who will have the first contracts; unless un- expected contingencies arise, we shall have all matters arranged so con- struction may begin at an early date. By reference to the map in the pros- pectus which we are mailing you to- day you will notice that we have two northern terminals, Memphis and Helena. All has been carefully sur
 veyed at an aggregate expense of $S0,000, except the line from Grenada to your city. That line has been made in preliminary way, but not definitely located, although it is practically decided upon now. We are thinking of running to Helena for our main terminal, with a branch to Memphis from a point midway be- tween Helena and Grenada. That, however, will be definitely decided in the near future.
 T would be glad to hear from you and if you feel inclined you can ad- dress me at the Astor House in New York, where I shall be until Sunday"

Another rumor was current this morning that a negro named Ramus Cornelius was implicated in the trou- ble, but this has been proved to be untrue. He came in and gave him. self up to Constable Jones. This ne- gro has established the fact that he was in a fight with lot of negroes on Sixteenth and Gaines street on the night of the killing on the Sweet Home pike and one finger was shot off, but he was never where the other shooting occurred and knows nothing about it.
 Mystery More Complicated.
 With all that was mortal of Mrs. Diehl, the last member of the ill-fas- ed party on the Sweet Home pike Monday evening, laid under the sod ir Oakland cemetery the mystery sur- rounding the identity of the man who fired the fatal shot is as great and inexplicable as ever.
 The city is filled with the widest and the most sensational rumors, Many of which have been run to earth and proven groundless. The authorities are devoting much attsn- ton to an effort to unravel the pug gle, but as fast as one clue is run down others develop which c,ulpii- cate the affair. It is generally ur- derstood that one suspect is under surveillance and that any moment may see an arrest made. Who this person is the authorities refuse to di- vulge, although there are many ru- mocs abroad.
 Whether the killing was the outcome of some crazy negro running amuck, whether it was done for purposes of robbery or whether it was the out come of some other difficulty, the nature of which has not been divulg- ed, still form the most exasperating subject of conjecture on the part of press and public.
 There is a persistent rumor that will not down to the effect that an- other man, presumably prominent business man, was involved in the af- fair, but an investigation of clues along this line never fails to bring the investigator up against a blank wall of emphatic denial. One of these rumors is that this unnamed man is seriously wounded. but this naturally cannot be verified, and as applied to some is known to be with out foundation.
 MT. Diehl, who reiterated today to Democrat reporter the statement originally made by him that he was driving with his wife at the time they were fired upon by some un- known person from a clump of bushes at the right of the road just beyond the bridge, can throw no ad- ditional light upon the case to aid the officers in their search. He says that he could not tell whether the man who fired the shot was a white man or a negro. He says that he took his wife to the Confederate Home and from there telephoned for an ambulance.
 Captain Swain, superintendent of the Confederate Home, has made statement to Democrat representa- tives that man about feet g inches in height weighing about 16o pounds, with black hair and short, black mustache, came to the home Monday night with Mrs. Diehl, who was seriously wounded. This man telephoned from the home. as he un- derstood to MT. Diehl, calling him "Charlie," and telling him that his wife was at the home badly wound ed. He did not understand at the time the name given by the man at the phone. but it sounded something like "Sigler" or 'Zeigler."
