BETTER SANITARY CONDITIONS.
Railroad Commission Gets New Depot
 for Van Buren and Rogers.

Formal orders will be issued by the Arkansas railroad commission to all railroad companies operating passen- ger trains in Arkansas to the effect that when sweeping is done in pas senger coaches some dust compound or settler" such as wet sawdust, must be used on the floor of the coach to prevent the disagreeable and un- sanitary flying of dust and grime in the atmosphere.
 Railroads will also be required to provide cuspidors for each double seat in the coach. Penalties will be vis- ited upon all lines for violations of the commissions order, the penalty being S25 for each violation.
 As to the proposition for a new depot at Van Buren, representatives of the Iron Mountain notified the commission that plans are being drawn for a new passenger station at that point. Commissioner Alien sug- gested that 60 days time be given the officials of the road to prepare and present their plans, and this was
 
 The complaint of unsanitary condi- tions at the Pine Bluff passenger sta- tion was also adjusted by giving the Iron Mountain more time in which to make contemplated improvements in conditions there.
 General Manager w. T. Tyler, of the Frisco, appeared before the com mission with regard to the complaint of the citizens of Rogers for better station facilities. He stated that ar engagements are being made between his road and the Kansas City & Memphis railroad for the erection of modern union passenger station at Rogers.
 An order will be issued by the com mission directing the Gould South western railroad, which runs from Gould in Jefferson county, to Star City. In Lincoln county, to put on a regular passenger coach, instead oe the present caboose affair.

Little Rock-Charles l.. Boyd of Chicago passed through Little Rock enroute from Camden to his home city, where the purchase of his 1 ,000- acre tract near Camden by the Ma tional Druggists Syndicate will prob ably be shortly consummated
 MT Boyd stated that he had been conducting experiments upon his land for several years and Lad discovered several medicinal qualities in the clays which he had developed into a germicide known as "Pentrol," the chief value of which was in cutaneous diseases.
 The syndicate originally desired the and for the curative properties in it's pigments, but it was lat.r discovered it also contained veins of kaolin, fire and vitrified brick clay in marketable quantities and that subsidiary com pany for the manufacture of the commercial products would be profit able. Thomas c. Beattie of Chicago, president of the late syndicate, and Judge C. S. Edwards of New York, stock holder, have investigated the land, and MT. Boyd stated that there seemed no doubt of the organization at very early date both of the branch to develop the medicinal prod ucts and the commercial.
 The company will be capitalized at $250,000," said MT. Boyd. Its lab. oratory will be in Chicago at first, but later it is expected that labora- tory will be established on the land. The subsidiary company for the devel. opment of the clay and kaolin 'depos- its will be on the land"

EARL GILcHRlST DID NOT HANG.
Eastern Newspapers Caused Govern.
 or Donaghey Much Woe.

Earl Gilchrist didn't hang last Fri day as some of the Northern and Eastern newspapers seemed to think he would. It wasn't through their efforts, either. The Gilchrist case is now in the supreme court, and was not worrying many people in Arkan- sas. Northern and Eastern newspa- pers learned, however, that Gilchrist was going to hang on September Sth. and editorials were vigorous and sen- sational in denunciation of Arkansas for permitting such a terrible crime as the hanging of a fifteen year old boy. Through the efforts of these newspapers there was a broadside of letters and telegrams and petitions requesting Gov. Donaghey 10 commute the young negro's sentence. They came from the East, the North, the West, the South, and from all ages and all classes. The governor was literally swamped. But Gilchrist did not hang and the governor was not even asked by his relatives and friends to pass on the case. The SUI preme court still has the case and it was not intended to hang the boy on the Sth. The Northern and East ern newspapers simply got their wires crossed

MILL WORKERS TO ORGANIZE.
Hope to Prevent Shut Down of Huttia
 Mills by Their Action.

Huttig.-The Citizens League was organized here. The object fl which is to band the members into an agree ment not to join the timber workers union or any other organization that will give the mill at which any mem. bers are employed an excuse for shut. ting down.
 The two large pine mills located here have been running only four days out of the week for some time. and they have more stock on hand than at any time since they began business here seven years ago. and are shipping less lumber. The em. ployes of these mills are anxious to avoid shutdown similar to those in Texas, where 10000 men have been thrown out of employment. The men believe that their action in forming the league will cause the mill owners to run even if they have to build ad- 1itional wards in which to store the lumber.
