The Art of DISPLAY.

1t may be conceded that this art is
not possessed by everyone, the very
lack giving to Dame Fashion her
strongest hold upon her votaries. The
existence Of such an art is best evil
denced by the taste and elegance of
the toilet of u well-dressed lady. 1t Is
not obtrusive, but charming. 1t is
not easily defined, but can he illus
irated, as, for instance, it is shown
in one of our leading stores. AS one Ia
led to contemplate the beauties of a
landscape or painting, the grouping
of objects and blending of colors, SO in
this particular store there is that
which appeals TO the appreciative
faculties, and Dit must be eonfessed)
also appeals TO the pocketbook. AGA
zErrE man endeavored to do Justice to
the display made in the store of Ma.
lone, Waller q Co., but he was soon
lost in the maze of elegant sealskin
cloalss and Langtry cloaks and every
kind of cloak, and Jersey jackets and
Jockey hats and feathers, and very
many other objects dear to the femip.
inc heart. Their display is beyond de-
scription, and certainly amounts to an

Haverly's "Our strategists."

Next Tuesday night "Our Strate-
gists" will be presented at the opera
house by genuine Haverly company
This is not u minstrel performance by
any means. The play is pronounced
to be Haverly's best, and is full of sit
uations that afford opportunities for
thorough enjoyment. The lover of the
play is n genuine strategist, exhibit
ing throughout II laughable readiness
for emergencies and an admirable IA
cility for keeping in hot water. The
Houston Post thus mentions the first
performance in that city last week:
Funny? Well, really the most
laughable entertainment that has been
here this season is the comedy Our
Strategists," rs performed by Haver-
ly's Comedy company last night mt
PILOTS opera house. If continual and
uproarious laughter is an evidence of an
amused audience and a clever comedy,
there was certainly plenty of evidence
TO that effect last night. The audi
ence was very good one. The com
pany is excellent, and the applause
was unstinted which greeted the
many eXtravagant and complicated
situations of the play. The variety
ieatures-the songs, were repeatedly
encored. The breach, however wide
il may be between the sublime In
Keene's performance and the ridicu-
lons in this, was certainly crossed.
Those who want TO laugh will do so
by witnessing Our Strategists.n

a Rabid Dog.

A dog supposed to be afflicted with
rabies ran into the Clark house about
noon yesterday and severely bit pet
dog belonging to Mrs. Nellie Clark,
the proprietress of the hotel. Mr..
John Stuart, who has charge of the
register during the day secured IA shot
gun and pursued the animal towards
the southern end of the city. He fired
two shots at the dog, but did not Sc
riously injure it, Officer Cocker joined
IN the chase ON horseback and finally
ran tire animal under house, over n
mile from the depot, where he sue
cceded in killing it with shots from
his pistol.
The dog is supposed to have bitten q
number of other dogs before ii was
killed, as it was seen fighting them in
different places. There was considera-
bic excitement among those who knew
the dog was running at large, and
they were glad to learn that the officer
had succeeded in dispatching 1t.

which he may well he proud.

scented such n fine appearance,
The opening entertainment,

even TO the supers, Is dressed in n new
and tasteful costume carefully modelled
after the fashions of the times ana |

physique the company is excellent, |
being composed of finely formed, good |
looking and well trained people. Mr., |

at his desk, was awakened by sus-
picious noise, and supposing it was
someone trying to steal chickens,
rushed out in the back yard, and To-
eating the noise at the coop, shot off
his pistol in that direction. The sound
the explosion made was quickly sue
ceeded by IA double caterwauling and a
noise as of felines scampering off.

The Real Home.

The real home is in the country :;
and it is something more than a dwell
ing; the field and trees around it are
part of it, and the views from it of
the landscape, and of distant noun
tains, perhaps, make it unlike any
other place in the world. The country
home with its fXity Of surroundings,
has usually some measure of perman-
ence, and the social life formed there
is under the favorable conditions of
old family associations. Some have
the happy condition of living in the
home of their fathers. and are sur
rounded with objects of precious mem
ory, daily mementoes of parental af
fection and instruction.
The home which it makes is the
best thing of farm life. There is a
necessity of permanence, and as there
is no sudden or great accumulation of
wealth, or large increase, the family
is free from that discomfort which u.s.
ually comes with sudden or great ac-
quisitiOn. 1t is one of the compensa-
tions of their condition that the farm
er's, family is in thaS.' fixity of sur
roundings" which favQrs their highest
culture. Country Gentleman.
