"PLAYINC THE MASCULINE"
A Pleasent Leap-Year Hall at the Opera
 house Friday Night.

A Pleasent Leap-Year Rall at the Opera
 house Friday Night.
 Perhaps the most successful dance experienced in Forrest City in years was the leap-year ball given by the young ladies last Friday night. Win throp & Co.'s drugstore was selected as the place of meeting, and here the fair damseis met their blushing part ners and marched them off to Becker & Lewis's operahouse, where the Pal estine colored band was i'll waiting to furnish inspiration for the hearts and toes of tho participants. TIE TIMEs mans best girl went square back on him and he had to slink in alone. He now knows what it is to ''get left. '" and the next time giddy girl solicits his company to ball he will exact a good and sufficient bond for the faith ful performance of her part of the con- tract. This thing of being bounced" isn't to be laughed at. Our vanity re- ceived "ducking" that will prevent us from trying to be 3 dude again for six months.
 We took our position as a spectator and watched the proceedings. A girl trying to "play boy" is queer spectacle. Some of the young ladies acted the part of ''beau" with commendable ease and grace, while others were somewhat awkward and q few, in their anxiety lest they. should fall to properly repre- sent man, rather overbid the thing, and were lacking in the finer points of courtesy and deference that a gentle man is supposed to exhibit toward ladies on all occasions. If young man desired to leave the presence of q girl and commenced excusing himself as he moved and finished on the other side of the room, 1t is probable his companion would feel that she had been mistreated; yet several of the guilty of precisely this breach of good manners. Of course the young ladies were entirely innocent of any inten- tiOnal rudeness, and the boys good-na- turedly overlooked their shortcomings, all appearing to enjoy the dance to the utmost. The festivities ended ut 1 o'clock Saturday morning and the Overs heated merrymakers sought their homes, well content with the night 6 amusement.
 Following is a list of the couples present:
 Miss Mary Winthrop and Will Myers. Miss Pearl Alley and W. A. Pearson, Miss Alice Rollwage and Bert R. Shade, Miss Minnie Rollwage and R. E. Palmer of Brinkley, Miss Lucy Will.

since the immense deal of the Monarch
Coal and Coke Company was announced,

Mr.. Harris in to-day's Posr offers for

Defeat in Rhode Island.

The Democratic defeat in Rhode Island
is no more than what all we'll informed
Democrats anticipated, but it has served
one good purpose, that Of stopping the
career of the recently revived Cleveland
boom. Cleveland's followers were SO
certain that the visit of their idol to little
Rhody would result in that State going
Democratic that they had their mouths
wide open, ready to exclaim: "He did it;
look at the great work of the only stuffed
prophet" The Republican victory has
therefore acted as decided damper upon
their enthusiasm, and they are now clam
oring for "Western man."
New York, the home Of your stuffed
prophet, is far enough West, gentlemen,
and there is citizen Of that State, David
B. Hill by name, who will make an excel
lent Democratic President, now that the
Claimant has been relegated to the shades
of enforced private life for several years
to come.

BACK TO HER OLD HOME.
Sad End OF Romance of Two Countries
a CIemenceau Case.

A cablegram from Paris to the New
York Morning Journal says: N. Clemen-
ceau. the famous radical, who has more
than once narrowly escaped a Ministerial
portfolio, has been divorced by his wife.
She obtained the decree, it is said, on the
strength of direct charges against her
husbands morality. She sailed yester-
day for America, where she will seek her
old home in quiet Connecticut, from which
the young Frenchman took her many years
ago. The marriage of George Clemencean
was a curious one Forced to fly from
France during the rain Of Louis Napoleon,
he went to America in 1865. He lived
cheaply and devoted himself to studying
American politics and society, under the
tutelage Of the Bohemian set of which
Fitz James O'Brien was the head.
A gentleman named Bush procured en-
ployment for young Clemenceau-he was
then but twenty five years old-as school
teacher in Greenwich village, Conn. While
there his father wrote for him to return
to France. He refused. Clemenceau the
elder threatened to disinherit him. BY
the next mail to Paris went the answer:
81 can make my own living" 1t was not
love for America that led the young
Frenchman to this dsobedience; it was
love for an American. In Greenwich he
met Mary E. Plummer, an orphan, and
had loved her at first sight. He proposed
and was accepted. There was no display
over the wedding. The couple went to
New York and were quietly married by A.
Oakley Hall, then mayor of the city. In
1870 husband and wife came to Paris.
They have lived in France ever since.
After the fall Of Louis Napoleon, NJ.
Clemenceau's rise as a national figure was
rapid. 81. Gambetta sent him to the may
orally at Montmarte. During the siege
his popularity rose fast, and he was re-
turned at the next general election to the
Assembly
He was afterward returned from the
third reimbursement of Paris. Naturally
he has nearly always been with the oppo-
siton.
Originally credited with leading m aus
tere life, for several years pastrumor has
been busy with his name, and stories have
been aaoat of wild orgies and the dissipa-
ton Of large fortune.
Nine. Clemenceau is still beautiful
woman. She has three children, the eld-
est of whom, Madeleine, is said to possess
great intellect.

majority Of the delegates will be favora-
Bile to the nomination of Hill.
Horace Greeley once said that Virgini-
ans were the shrewdest politicians in the
world. They are shrewd enough now to
see that the nomination of Cleveland in
the Chicago convention would invite GER
tain defeat, and they naturally turn to
David B. Hill as the man most likely to
defeat the Republicans in the approach
ing campaign. 1t is not, however, any
evidence of peculiar shrewdness to see
that disaster is inevitably linked with the
nomination of Cleveland, or that victory
with Hill is almost a certainty. These
are such plain propositions that the merest
novice in politics cannot help but see their
force.
The choice for Virginians to make is
simply whether it, shall be Cleveland and
defeat or Hill and victory, and we do not
think it will take long to make choice
between these two. Democratic success
is far more important for Virginia at this
time than tariff reform, free silver or any
other issue before the people. Let us
make our success sure and then go in tor
these other things.

Feared by the Republicans I.

Washington correspondence Richmond Dispatch
1t is pretty generally conceded in Wash
ington that the Republicans politicians
fear Senator Hill more than any man talk
ed of by the Democrats for President. A
Republican member from New York was
asked by the Dispatch correspondent why
his party seemed to fear Senator Hill 50
much more than they feared Cleveland
and he said Chill has never failed tc
carry New York. He would carry the
State in spite of the Mugwulnps and bolt
ers, and he would 60 into the White
House if he had to break in with an axe
He'd certainly get there. We feel posi-
tive of beating Cleveland, and that is why
all our papers and politicians are trying
to create the impression that Cleveland
will be the Democratic nominee. AS the
saying goes, we want a 'puddin, and we
hope Cleveland will be put up
