,Jd uary meeting, held in this city. the citizens of Pine Bluff, through the Board of Trade, agreed to give the right of way through the county and city, with depot and terminals. and $1OO,OOO bonus if the road was built to Pine Bluff. This bonus he said. is payable one-third when the first train reaches Pine Bluff; one-third che year after it's completion and the final one-third two years after it's completion. This proposition was accepted by the Board of Trade on behalf of the citizens. A committee was appointed to fulfill the contract The M. D. & G. people on this guar antee felt justified in going on with the plans and the construction work. said MT. Bishop, without waiting to have the signatures of subscribers.
 In discussing the proposition Dr. Caldwell declared that Little Rock was making determined effort to get the line through the capital city and were offering inducements to the pro- motors to come that way and this would IT an that Pine Bluff would not be on the route of the railroad.
 Dr. Caldwell said that the people Of Pine Bluff had never gone back on promise and that they would not do so in this instance. He said they were ready at any time to carry out it's agreement with the M. D. & G. people. Dr. Caldwell said that the promoters of the road had displayed their good intentions in building the road when they recently paid out $1,- 800 for charter authorizing the con- pany to build from Pine Bluff to Helena He said that the company has already spent three million dol lars on it's property. Dr. Caldwell said the company had shown it's good intentions and the people of Pine Bluff should now do their part to- VoA U oCSuA1A CiS lluG.
 After discussing the railroad prop csltlon at some length it was finally suggeeted that the old finance con- mittee, composed of P. P. Byrd and Dr. Caldwell, be appointed with pow CT to appoint such subcommittee as they might deem necessary for the purpose of soliciting the bonus of $1o0,000 They will probably name their committees today and as soon as they are named the sub-commit- tees will begin the work of raj ing the required amount. As soon as the s100,000 is raised the officials of the company will be notified to come to this city and make the final contract with the citizens of Pine Bluff
 J. B. Boyce asserted that he believ- ed it would be the easiest $100,00O to raise ever recorded in this city. He said the people and especially the bue mess men and property owners favored securing the line and would doubtless donate literally. Dr. Cald- wei said that s. c. Alexander, presi- dent of the Merchants and Planters Bank, had to leave the city yesterday afternoon, but before his departure he told him that he would give as much as any other man would give to secure the new railroad. William Nichol did not favor delaying the canvass, but favored soliciting sub- scriptions at the meeting. Major H. A. Mccoy said that every business man ought to give all that he was able to give and he believed they would. He was confident, he said, there would be no trouble in rais- ing the required bonus.

ABANDONED IT
For the OId-FashIOned Coffee was
Killing.

i Always drank coffee with the rest
of the family, for it seemed as If there
was nothing for breakfast If we did not
have it on the table.
Il had been troubled some time with
my heart, which did not feel right This
trouble grew worse steadily.
Sometimes it would beat fast and
at other times very slowly, so that
l would hardly be able TO do work for
an hour or two after breakfast, and if
I walked up hill it gave me severe
pain.
Il had no idea of what the trouble
was until a friend suggested that per-
haps 1t might be caused by coffee
drinking 1 tried leaving off the cOf-
fee and began drinking Postum. The
change came quickly. I am now glad
to say that I am entirely well of the
heart trouble and attribute the relief
to leaving off coffee and the use of
Postum.
"A number OF my friends have aban-
doned the Old-fashiOned coffee and have
taken I'D with Postum, which they are
using steadily. There are some people
that make Postum very weak and
tasteless. but if il is boiled long enough
according to directions, 1t is very
delicious beverage. We have never
used any of the old fashioned coffee
since Postum was first started in our
house."

SALT LAKE HAVEN
FOR BANK ROBBERS
Bandits Who Held Up GlenWOOd
Springs Institution Came
Directly Here.

James Edwards, known in Salt Lake
as one of the cleverest piekpockets that
ever operated west of the Rocky noun
tains, is on trial at Glenwood Springs,
Colo, for the sensational robbery of
the Citizens National bank of that city
on September 20. In his defense Ed
wards is trying TO prove that he was in
salt Lake at the time of the robbery.
Chief of Detectives George A. Sheets
said last night that Edwards had been
a frequent visitor of Salt Lake last fall,
but Chief Sheets doubts that he was
here In September. He believes that
Edwards came to Salt Lake shortly
after the robbery of the Citizens Ma
tional bank The theory of PinkertOn
detectives at GlenwoOd Springs after
the robbery was that the holdups went
directly to Salt Lake after the robbery.
Edwards, in company with Doc
Cameron and two other pickpockets,
were arrested during the Commercial
club aviation meet by Detectives Ed
Janney, F. NJ. Schuize and Harry Cur

under the suspicion OF the Glenwood

HAVENS WILL NOT
CHANCE IT AGAIN
Man Who Defeated Aldridge in
New York Satisfied With
His Victory.
POLITICIANS IN DISPUTE
COMMENT OF REPUBLICAN PA
PER THAT OPPOSED ALDRIDGE.
POLITICIANS IN DISPUTE

Rochester, \. Y, April O.-Politieal
diagnosticians here continue to disagree
over the cause OF the political revolution
athat occurred yesterday in the Thirty
second congressional district.
The Democrats insist that the election
of James S. Ravens was due to dissatis-
faction with the new tariff law and with
the Republican national administration.
The Republicans maintain the Overturn
was caused by personal opposition to
George W. Aldridge and with his regime
as a political arbiter of Monroe county.
One fact remains which makes the re-
suit of wide Importance. and that is the
typical character of the district where
the revolution occurred.
Rochester and the surrounding towns
form distinctly an average American
community The nature of their pursuits
and industries gives rise to a great va
riety of interests. No one industry and
no one class of citizenship can be said
10 predominant. For this reason the cleo
lion is significant as an index of what
might occur in other parts of the coun-
try this fall.
James S. Ravens announced today that
ne was content with delivering the Thlr-
ty-secODd congressional district from the
hands Of a Republican boss" and that
he would not accept denomination Tor the
office of congressman, to which ne was
elected yesterday by nearly 6,NO plural
ity.
Part of Term Enough.
y feel. said MI. HAYES, that 1 have
done enough for the party in overturning
the political machine that has ruled Mon
roe county for the last twenty years. 1t
IS now somebody's else turn"
For personal and professional reasons
he said, 1t would be impossible for him
to serve in Congress after the expiration
OF his present term.
Regarding a boom for governor launched
today by one OF the newspapers that sup
ported him. Mr Ravens was silent His
friends, however, say that he is not daz-
zled by his Widely-heTalded victory and
has no desire for public office.
Such an attitude however, has only
whetted the determination of the victorl-
Gus Democrats to keep him IN public
life"
IN commenting on the results of the cleo
ton, one Republican paper which sup
ported Ravens insists it was the per
FonaT and moral issue alone that de-
feated 11Idridge and that if the Republican
leader had permitted the nomination or
more worthy candidate he would have
been elected.
The Democratic papers, however, de-
clare Aldridge lost because he represented
the old order of things; because ne was
an opponent of Governor Hughes poll
cies, and because the people felt that II
elected he would stand with the Repub-
lican administration leaders in the House.
