thoroughly affirmed, that however much

Lyndon men is this: For the past three

back room in his store building whore ne
has had criminal intimacy with the older
ones, and acted most shamcfuly and out.
rageously with the younger ones. A large
number of girls have been his victims,
aud their ages range from IL to % years.
and they are members of the respectable
families Of that village This matter
came to light Saturday before last, being
dlvulged by one Of the girls, and new cases
have been coming out daily since, until
many girls and number of families are
implicated. For the sake of their child.

A Dog Tale.

To day Judge Flippin of the Criminal
Court ordered the clerk to issue an ex-
cution for cost, and levy on certain
dog, belonging to Mrs. Bobbitt, who was
recently tried, convicted and sentenced
to twenty.four hours Imprisonment on
the charge of shop lifting. The dog
is professional and trained thief that
picks up things in stores and awaits
outside for its owner to take the property.
Mrs. Bobbitt served out her sentence in
the county Jail, and now wants
possession of the valuable dog, but
not having paid the costs of suit the
execution was duly levied on the dog by
deputy sheriff, who has the animal in
possession. The dog will probably be
sold at public auction by the Sheriff
Already we have heard of several per-
sons who will give fifty dollars for the
animal. During the trial of the Bobbitt
case in the Criminal Court the Attorney
General expressed wish to exhibit the
dog before the jury, and the intelligent
animal, that had been paying especial
attention to the triel, ran forward at once
and sat upon its hindlegs in front OF the
jury. 1t looked back and winked at the
Judge and clerk, as much as to say,

MEMPHIS THEATER.-Last night very
fashionable audience appeared at the
theater to witness the representation
aAd repetition of the Cantata of Esther,
which was SO attractively presented last
season under the careful supervision Of
Mr.. James Kirkland, who has drama
tized and arranged Esther for presenta-
ton in Memphis. The audience was
composed of our best citizens who repre-
sent the different churches of our city,
and whose faces are never seen inside Of
theater except on such occasions as
the present. The Cantata was most
creditably presented, the scenery, cos
tuning, ETC., being quite appropriate.
The numerous tableaux were attractive
and pleasing, but occasionally the group
ing Of figures was imperfect, owing to
the fact that the people on the stage
we're amateurs in the business. The
scenic eject is thing to be closely
watched, and in tableaux those partici-
pating should occupy the proper place
and never indulge in conversation or
swinging from side to side. The vocal
music was excellently we'll rendered, and
especially by the following dramatis per-
soma: King Ahasuerus," N. Petersen;
Esther" Miss Rosa Barnett; Zeresh, "
Miss Lizzie Walker; Priestess," Miss
Carrie Ennis" Mordecai," Walter Guer-
rant "Haman," Joe P. Carey; Illegal"
W. W. Currie, etc. During the presenta-
ton of the Cantata number Of operate
gems were introduced, to the great plea
sure Of the audience. Miss Jenny Jones
sang Angels ever Bright and Fair"
Miss Lizzie Walker sang Sweet Spirit,
Hear my Prayer" and Miss Rosa Bar
nett Casta Diva" from Bellini. These
we're musical gems, and were rendered
in style pleasing to the audience and
rejecting credit on the fair vocalists.
Tonight Esther will be repeated before
a crowded house, and will again be pre-
scented tomorrow night and at the matt
nee on Saturday. The presentation of
the attractive Cantata reflects the great
est credit upon Mr.. Kirkland, musical
director, and his assistants.
