ADVERSE REPORT ON SURVEY.
Surveyor Beard Favors Abandoning
Rock Island Route From J ickson
port North, but Advocates
Construction of Line From
Belle to West Plains.
The reports of Captain A. L. Clark’s
survey made for the Rock Island on
the West Plains route southward are
expected to reach Chicago today. A
West Plains correspondent says:
“In a letter to Judge W. N. Evans
of this city, Captain Clark says that
he has learned from Mr, Beard, chief
assistant engineer, that he will sug
gest or report that it will pay to build
the line from Belle to West Plains.
Later on the line will be constructed
to Yellville and Mr. Beard favors
abandoning the Newport end of the
survey.
It is not known what Vice-Presi
dent Parker will do in the matter.
The views and recommendations of
Mr. Beard will have a great deal to do
in his decision, and as Mr. Beard is
very favorable regarding the con
struction of the line to West Plains
from Belle it is quite sure that this
much of the proposed extension from
the Colorado line to the Choctaw will
be constructed if Mr. Beard’s advice
is taken.
The survey for the counter line from
Kansas City to Henrietta, Tex., is not
yet completed, but even should that
line be constructed it is thought that
the line from Belle south will not be
entirely abandoned. As the Rock Is
land has under consideration a great
many new lines in the west, it will
take some time to decide which of
them will be constructed first.”
LOCKARD BANDY INJURED.
Deputy Sheriff Lockard Bandy,
while riding along the road near
Tupelo about 3:30 o’clock Tuesday af
ternoon, suffered a very serious acci
dent, from which he is now laid up
with injuries in the back.
The bay horse, which he rides, was
frightened at some negroes in a fence
corner and jumped to the side, so sud
denly that the rider was thrown from
his seat. He held the lines however
snd the stirrup caught his foot. This
further frightened the horse, which
began kicking and ran for 150 yards
before being stopped.
The rider was badly bruised and
Mrs. R. W. Bandy, his mother, was
telephoned for from Tupelo, driving
down that afternoon. Lockard was
brought home Wednesday morning on
the train and is resting well. Just
how serious the injuries are is not yet
known, but his life is not in danger,
and we hope he may soon be well
again.
WANT SONS ENROLLED.
Newark, Nov. 18.—The V. Y. Cook
Camp of United Confederate Veterans
No. 1474, met here today. R. R.
Reeves, captain, presided. Twenty
members were present. Dr. H. G.
; Logan, the secretary, enrolled several
| comrades. Adjutant J. E. Shopman
was appointed to draft constitution
and by-laws. Comrade J. H. Rangoff
was elected chaplain. He delivered
an eloquent speech in which he
fervently favored a revision of the
laws so that the Sons of Veterans
could be taken into the camp with
their fathers. Comrade J. H. Wells
endorsed the remarks of the chaplain,
and urged that the camps in the South
use their influence to have a history
adopted for the schoels which would
speak the truth of the rebellion that
posterity might fairly and rightly
judge those who followed the respec
| tive flags.

BATESVILLE CELEBRATION.
Judge Fulkerson Issues Injunction
Against Street Fair Attractions
Showing on Streets—Senator
Berry Delivered Address.
Batesville, Nov. 18.—The celebra
tion of the completion of lock and

winning. Tonight a ball and banquet
were given to the guests of the city.
The First regiment band of Little
Rock furnished music.
A street carnival and fair followed
in the wake of the celebration, but
was by Circuit Judge Fulkerson en
joined from showing on the streets
and the tents were torn down. It is
possible a compromise will be effected
and the carnival will move onto the
back streets and open tomorrow.
