provement at Confab City
and Company Officials.

For two hours or more yesterday,
President f. G.. Bridges of the Pine
Bluff company discussed with Mayor
Bloom ami City Councilman fabian,
We'll, Means, Simpson and McGe!ee
the matter of providing better and
more satisfactory street car service
for the people of Pine Bluff.
No conclusions were reached as a
result of the conference. 1t was the
belief, however, that before the coun-
Gil meets Monday night, there will be
further exchange of opinion in the
matter, perhaps in a communication
from the company to the city.
The matter was discussed from
many angles. The company stands
lat in the position If has already
taken, that the one-man crew system
is satisfactory; that fewer cars with
two-men crews furnish unsatisfactory
service. The company offered figures
to prove it's contention that the
street cars are doing no more business
now than they did in 1912.
Members of the aldermanlc body
also stand pat that the company ought
to provide better service, and that 1t
can provide better service, for the
business it is doing. 1t was asserted
that the company is not now maintain
ing the schedule it claims to be main
tanning. this assertion, it was SAID,
being based on timing made within
the past few days on cars actually In
operation.
The conference was held at the Of
flee of Mr.. Bridges. and Superinte1-
dent B. c. Fowles of the company was
in attendance, although Mr.. Bridges
did all the talking for the company
Mayor Bloom led in the talking for
the city, although all the aldermen
present participated in the argument
and discussion. Aldermen Franey
McGibbony and Clement were 'nos
present,

SOUTHWEST TRAIL BOOSTS
KANSAS

Wide publicity is being given the
agricultural advantages of Kansas
in the current issue of the Southwest
Trail, monthly magazine published
by Rock Island Lines. An unusual
feature of the number is the en-
phasis laid on the states farm educa-
tional facilities. Two pages are de-
voted to Kansas State Agricultural
College and the various activities
through which that institution reach
es the farmer. This is considered by
the company one of the strong in
ducements for intending settlers, as
distinguished from the usual plan of
calling attention only to land buying
opportunities.
When hOmeseeker inquiries about
a location in Rock Island territory
in Kansas he is given crop statistics,
land information and climatic data,
but stress is laid, also, upon the fact
that Kansas eXcels in providing edu-
cational facilities not only for young
people, but for the farmer on the
farm and for the intending settler.
This is in line with the company's
established policy in directing home
seekers to localities providing proper
agricultural advice.
Many thousands OF copies of this
issue of the Southwest Trail will be
distributed BY the Rock Island in the
north and east, among those seeking
farms in the great wheat and corn
belt of Kansas

CONNELLY JEWELRG STORE
ROBBED

The jewelry store of W. D. Connel-
ly, which is located in the WINNER
drug store building, was broken in
to some time Thursday night of last
week, and a haul of about 5000
worth of iewelry was taken by the
marauders. A small hole was
punched in the window in the back
end of the store, through which the
window lock was released and the
lower window raised. The window
is protected by iron bars but the
party doing the job was evidently
small enough to squeeze between
them, as none of the bars were
Nrenched loose. Exit was made by
the back door which was protected
by a night lock and could be opened
from the inside. The burglar had
undoubtedly made a careful survey
of the premises beforehand as the
job was done in a thorough manner.
The sheriff and police force were i'm
mediately put on the trail and Sher-
iff Dobson has notified the officers
of the surrounding towns and cOun-
ties to be on the lookout for an at
tempted sale of the jewerly.

Every department shows a heavy

over $4,000 worth of tickets have
been sold by Ticket Agent Swan and

WILL OPEN BRANCH AT BEAVER

NJ. Feinberg, who started in busi-
ness in Liberal about a year ago, is
so well pleased with the prospects
of things around here that he is fig
uring on putting in store at Beaver.
With the advent of the railroad into
Beaver the old town took such
boom that scarcely day passes that
some new enterprise isn't launched.
Here is what the Beaver Herald says
about Mr.. Feinberg's contemplated
project:
m. Feinberg. of Liberal, Kansas,
was here the past week and closed
a lease for the Long & Lawson brick,
which will be constructed at once.
Mr.. Feinberg is connected with a
chain of stores having establish
ments at Wichita, Medicine Lodge
and Liberal, Kansas, and it is his in
tention to put in an up-to-date estab-
lishment here. His line will be
mems, womens and children's furn-
ishings. He left Sunday for the
New York markets to buy spring
stock for the establishments and
while there he will buy a stock OF
goods and fixtures for the Beaver
store. The Herald is glad to note the
coming of this big firm to Beaver and
we extend a hearty welcome to Mr..
Feinberg and his associates" -
