A Frisco passenger train, bound
for Memphis was held up between
Fickinger and Hardy, at 5 o’clock
Wednesday morning of last week,
by two masked men, who are sup
posed to have boarded the train at 1
Thayer, Mo.
None of the passengers were
molested, and it was evident that
the bandits had designs only on j
the safe in the express car. They
entered the car and quickly open
ed the safe, securing the contents.
The express messenger was kept
covered with revolvers during the
proceeding.
After taking what the safe con
tained, the bandits appeared satis
lied. Pulling the bell cord, they
left the train as it. slowed up at a
point about three miles west of
Hardy.

Mrs. L. II. Brand, keeper of a
boarding house at De Queen shot
her 8-,vear-old daughter Katie with
a target rifle and then sent a bul- j
let into her own brain with the
same weapon. Both will die.
Mrs. Brand sent her son Samuel, !
aged 14 years, into another room
and, locking the door, placed the
rifle against the little girl's head
and fired. She then shot herself
in the temple.
Mrs. Brand came to De Queen j
about four months ago from Indi
ana and purchased the property in
which she had since conducted a
boardinghouse. She had separat

ADMIRERS OF MAGAZINES.
People in Far-Off Countries Make
Much of American Picture
Publications.
Ad American traveler who ex
plored the northern part of Sibe
ria states that he found in the hut
of a Korak peasant a picture of
Mayor Dix cut out of a copy of
Harper’s Magazine. The mayor's
picture was enthroned on a wood
en shrine, and adored by the
Korak and his family as their
household deity, says Woman's
Home Companion.
This is probably the most ex
treme case on record of venera
tion for a magazine page. Hut 50
years ago in this country it was
not uncommon to find a single
copy of a magazine being read by
15 or 20 families every month, and
regarded by all as an infallible au
thority.
It is said that when the shah of
Persia visited England several
years ago it was one of his chief
delights to buy a dozen magazines
and “read the pictures. As there
are only about 3,000 people in Per
sia who can read and write, his
amazement at the number of mag
azines is not surprising.

STATE GUARD INSPECTION
General Order Issued by Adjutant

The following general order re

Arkansas State Guard has been is
sued:
lleadquorters Ark. State Gnard,

1905.
The annual inspection conducted
under special orders No. 15, head
quarters Southwestern Division,
(AklahomaCity, (). T., will be held
in this state beginning April 10,
ending April 2S, 1905, and one of
the objects of this inspection is to
ascertain what organizations are
sufficiently armed, uniformed and
equipped for active duty in the
field, and it is obviously very dif
ficult to arrive at a correct conclu
sion of this matter unless the en
I tire strength of the command is
present at the inspection.
Another object of this inspec
tion is to enable the secretary of
war to determine what assistance
| under the act approved January
I 21, 1908, the organized malitia of
| this state is entitled to from the
United States.
It is expected that every man
now enrolled as a member of the
Arkansas State Guard will be
present at the coming inspection,
and company commanders will be
held strictly responsible for the
carrying out of this provision.
No excuses will be granted for al>
sence, except on certificate of dis
ability from a reputable physician.
Commanding officers will report
all absentees to these headquarters,
immediately upon conclusion of
the inspection.
It is desired that the enlisted
men who have removed from the
jurisdiction or others who are un
reliable be either dropped from
the rolls or discharged before time
for the inspection.
Arms, equipments and uniforms
must be placed in the best possible
condition, and company quarters
will be made neat and tidy.
It must be remembered that un
less the companies inspected fill
the requirements of the Dick bill,
the aid furnished by the general
government will be withdrawn.
The commanding officers will at
once take steps to see that these
provisions are fully carried out.
