HO EFFORT TO PUSH TEST OrTRAIN LAW Railroad Commission Is Showing Little Interest in Wabash Case.

HAVE TWO OTHER CASES. THESE WILL MISSION'S OCCUPY THE ATTENTION COMFOR FOR SOME TIME ATTORNEYS DEFENSE MAKE CHARGES. No effort will be made just at this time to push the case which was brought against the Wabash Railroad company in the circuit court at Lafayette, by the State Railroad commission, to test the full train crew law. The commission is exhibiting little interest in this case because two other cases, one to test the constitutionality of the full crew law, and the other to test a kpccial feature of the law are now in litigation. The suit to test the constitutionality of the full crew law was brought in the criminal court of Marion county against. the Panhandle. Attorneys for the railroad contended that the operation of the law would amount to an Interference with interstate commerce. The court, declined to take this view nd the case was taken to the supreme court by the railroad company. Case Against Monon. Another suit which was brought to test a special feature of the full-crew law was filed in the Circut court at Crawfordsville against'the Monon. and Is still pending. The full crew law iprovldea, among other things, that It Fhall be unlawful for any railroad company to run over its road outside of yard limits any passenger, mail or express train consisting of five or more 'coaches, with other than a full passenger crew, consisting of one engineer, one fireman, one conductor, one brakeman and one flagman. The contention of the railroad company in the Crawfordsville case is that the porter performed the duties of brakeman, and therefore that there was no violation of the law. The argument is that the fact that a man who performed the duties of a brakeniau was not called specifically by that name does not confctitute a violation of the law. A DOCTOR FOR A DIME!

AH It Street Are Staircases, and All Are Safe. Here Is a pretty pictue of Algiers by Frances E. N'esbitt: "Now it is possible to go safely Into even the darkest and remotest corners, and they are dark. Indeed. A first visit leaves one breathless, but delighted breathless, because all the streets are staircases on a more or less imposing scale the longest is said to have at least 500 tops; delightful, because at every turn there Is sure to be something unusual to a stranger's eye. The newer stairs are wide and straight and very uninteresting, but only turn into any jld street and follow its windings in nd out between white walls, under fcrches, through gloomy passages, here few stairs, there a gentle incline, always up and always the cool deep hade lending to the bright blue of the k.T above. "Being so narrow and so steep, there are. of course, no camels and no carts, donkeys do all the work and trot up nd down with the strangest loads, though porters carry furniture ami most of the biggest things. Up and down these streets comes an endless variety of figures town and country Arabs, spahis in their gay uniforms, French soldiers. Italiau workmen, chilflren in vivid colors, Jewesses with liends and chins swathed in dark wrappings. "Interesting beyond all these are the Arab women flitting like ghosts from one shadowy corner to another, the folds of their haicks concealing all the plorles of their indoor dress, so that in ihe street the only sign of riches lies in the daintiness of the French shoes and the fact that the haiok is pure silk and the little veil over the face of a finer material."

OBJECT TO PICTURE OF EVELYN THAW

Rubs Shoulders With Best! English Society Women In the Exhibit. London, March 23. The last function attended by the duchess of Marlborough before she sailed for America was the Exhibition of Fair Women. The duchess presided during the opening exercises and as flashlight photograph was taken while she was on the stae. The secretary of the exhibition, by the way, is having ati exceedingly rough time so far as correspondence is concerned. The cause of the trouble is a threequarter length portrait of Mrs. Evelyn Thaw. painted by Harrington Mann. The picture rubs shouldeis with "counterfeit presentments"' of some of the best names in English society and on the English stage, and the originals seem to have resented the contact. A meeting of the committee is shortly to be called to consider the advisability of removing the picture. Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR. NEW PHILLIPS. Week of March 23 Vaudeville. GENNETT.

His feats of mental telepathy, thought vibration, retaining power of ihe mind and psychological tests, together with the wonderful work of calling the names of hundreds of people in the audience and answering questions, might be thought by many to he supernatural power, but Mr. lily makes no such claims.

Miss Freda Siemens, as playwright, hecause it is a notable instance of extending recognition to merit. Miss Slemons is the author of a very wholesome and attractive play, "The Sweetest Girl in Dixie,' and, with a well selected company, the presentation of the play Thursday night in Little Rock proved an event of infinite pleasure to a representative audience. The chief charm about the satisfying production was naturalness. Nothing was overdrawn. The story of Southern life is set forth truthfully, yet without sectional bias or prejudice. Miss Slemons readily enlisted as her enthusiastic friend and well-wisher every one in the audience that greeted her in this city. "Where He n.

ON THL SFTRE. ThrllUitK Incident In the life mt James Freeman ( larke. When James Freeman Clarke was a young man he visited Salisbury. Kugland. Here the beautiful cathedral lifts its spire 404 feet into the air. The spire is topped by a ball, and ou the ball stands a cross. From the ground the ball looks like an orange, hut its diameter is really greater than a man's height. Workmen were repairing the spire. Mr. Clarke saw them crawling round the slim steeple in the golden afternoon like bugs on a bean stalk. The impulse came 1o him to climb the spire and stand on the horizontal beam of the cross. Accordingly at dusk, when the workmen had left, the young American slipped in and made his way up the stairs to the little window which opened to the workmen's staging. To run up the scaffolding to the ball w as easy. Then came the slichtly more bulginc curve of the ball. A short platform trave him foothold. He reached up, put his hands on the base of the cross and pulled himself up. To gain the cross arm was merely "shinning"' up a good sized treo, and soon he stood on the horizontal timber and, reaching up, touched the top of the cross. After enjoying his moment of exaltation he slid to the foot of the cross, and. with his arms round the post, slipped down over the great abdomen of the ball. His feet touched nothinc. The little plank from which he had reached up was not there: Here was a peril and one for a cool head and sure eye. Of course he could not look down. The hugging hold that be had to keep on the bottom of the cross shortened the reach of his body and made it less than when he had stood on the plank and reached up to the cross with his hands. He must drop so that his feet should meet the plank, for he would never be able to pull himself hack if he should let himself down at arms' length, and his feet hung over empty air. Now his good head began to work. He looked up nt the cross and tried to recall exactly the angle at which he had reiv hed for It, to make his memory tell him just how the edge of that square post had appeared. A few inches to the right or to the left would mean dropping into vacancy. Bending his head away back, he strained his eye up the cross and figured his angle of approach. He cautiously wormed himself to the right and made up his mind that here directly under his feet must be the plank. Then he dropped. The world knows that he lived to tell the tale. BLACK HAND AGAIN.
