1 TO BE OPERATED
I BY AUGUST FIRST.
i Through Traffic Over White Riv
er Route to be Opened
By That Date.
Reports from Cotter and Yell- j
vilfe. on the line of the new rail
road through the northern part
of the state tell of great activity
in the construction of that'road.
Additional gangs have been put
to work on the Oregon flat to the
west of Cotter, and everything
possible is being done to com
plete the road in order that traf
fic may move over it August 1.
While construction work on
many other roads in the state has
been practically abandoned dur
ing the cold weather, a great
deal has been done on the White
River line. It is true that a great
deal has not been done in the line
of grading and laying steel, but
there is an immense amount of
preparatory work which has been
done during the time when
the weather has been so as to
prevent outside work. The steam
shovels have been thoroughly
overhauled. The tools have been
gotten in good shape and as soon
as the weather became so that
men and teams could be worked
in the open all was in Readiness.
The gap between the north
west end of the line and that
from Batesville is rapidly nar
rowing, and ere long it will be
closed and the traffic will begin
to move.
It is said that the construction
of the line from Batesville to Au
rora is the most expensive under
taken by the Goulds since the
death of Jay Gould, the father of
the present head of the Missouri
Pacific-Iron Mountain. While no
official figures are obtainable, it
is a matter of general informa
tion that the entire line will cost
near $75,000 per mile, and when
the formationj>f the country is
taken into consideration, this
statement is considered to be
conservative.
SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto
ries in the Kansas City Star.
Conan Doyle’s detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
fact, the publisher of Collier’s
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
about 60 cents a word. The en
tire correspondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid for such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday,
February 15.
None of the present popular
features of the Star will be cut
down or omitted to make room
for this remarkable set of stories.
Practically the contents of a $1.50
book will be added to the con
tents of the Star in three months
without any increase of the sub
scription price, 10 cents a week
for the daily Star, (morning,
evening and Sunday, 13 complete
papers a week) and 25 cents a:
year for the weekly Star.;
