DRAFT BILL FOR
 NEW COMMISSION
FOR NEXT LEGISLATURE
MATTERS DE- MAND ATTENTION AS THE
 SESSION APPROACHES.

Little Rock, Dec. 1.-Legislative matters are now demanding the at tention of those who are usually af- fected by the output of this rapidly
 grinding aw-making body. If the
 general assembly of 1915 considers
 one-half the bills which have been re-
 ported as being in process of forming, there will have to be an extraordinary session.
 There is a well-defined report that the legislature will be asked to pro- vide for utility commission, and
 give it the powers of the present state railroad commission and the Arkan- sas tax commission, extending juris- diction to take in telephone, water
 power, electric light and all public
 utilities. Whether this will abolish the present railroad commission, or extend it's jurisdiction, is matter not known outside of the framers of the bill. It is not known but what this bill will add to the duties of the tax
 commission. It is reported, however,
 that the bill being considered will pro- vide for the appointment of the mem- bers by the governor.
 Another bill which has been pre- pared, was in the senate two years ago. It provides that no freight train of over 50 cars can be operated by
 any railroad in Arkansas. This was
 defeated last session, it being shown that it would be unfair to the compa-
 nies which have spent thousands of
 dollars in reducing grades and build ing larger engines for the sole pur-
 pose of hauling more freight on their trains.

LIBRARY GETS RARE BOOK.

One of the most interesting of the recent gifts to the Hendrix College library is large folio edition of the Egyptian Book of the Dead,' the most ancient and most important of the sacred books of ancient Egypt. This book contains ninety-nine plates reproduced in fac-simile from the original papyri at Turin and in the Louvre Museum in Paris, giving both the hierotic, or writing of the priests, and the hieroglyphics. It has also translation of the symbol into English, with chapter on the re- ligion and mythology of ancient Egypt.

of I could take only one paper," said the late MT. Justice Brewer of the supreme court, "it would be the Youths Companion-a little of every thing in a nutshell, and unbiased The Companion is a family paper in the completest sense. It provides read ing that, without failing to interest the young, still interests the mature. It unites young and old through their common enjoyment of delightful fic- tion, agreeable miscellany, and the clear exposition of public questions.
 So carefully is it edited, so varied are it's contents, that it would easily supply family with entertaining fc- tion, up-to-date information and wholesome fun, if no other periodical entered the house.
 If you are not familiar with The Companion as it is today, let us send you sample copies and the forecast for 1915.
 New subscribers who send $2 for the 52 issues of 1915 will receive free all the remaining issues of 1914, be- sides a copy of The Companion Home Calendar for 1915.

DAYS DEVELOPMENTS ]
 IN EUROPEAN WAR }

Except that fighting continues briskly in Poland and that there has been. another resultless attack on Ar ras, in the west, there is a paucity of news from the fronts.
 Unofficial advices from Petrograd say the Russiens in Poland have cap tured 10 miles of German trenches be- tween Glovno and Sobota (Busobota) ,, northeast of Lodz, 600 prisoners, sevA en guns and many wounded The cap- ture of these trenches, it is asserted, strengthens the Russian right wing, which it is declared, already has out flanked the German left and brought the Russian advance nearer Strykow, where a battle is raging.
 Berlin says there is nothing inn portant to report from Poland. A wireless dispatch from Berlin quoted military critics as saying the time is ripe for resumption of active opera tions against the Russians, which were temporarily hindered by the ad- vance of Russian achievements. It adds that the Austrians are cooper ating with the Germans and that there has been an Austrian advance in Servia.
 King George has gone to France to visit the headquarters of the British experitionary forces.
 In another official statement issued at Paris the French government an- nounces that from a material and moral standpoint the French position from the sea to the Lys river is ex- cellent and declares that the German artillery attacks along the line are intermittent and lack spirit.
 In a report from British headquar- ters on the continent covering opera tions from November 23, to November |25, the British official observer says that since the enemy has desisted from his attacks in force the fighting has resolved itself into a competition of shipping and small affairs on the outposts all along the line.
