WHEN YOU FORGET YOUR KEYS.
Then, If Business Man. You Rave Day
of Deep Trouble.

Have you ever CHANGED to meet the
man who left his bunch Of keys at
| home IN his other trousers? asks q
writer in the Pittsburgh Dispatch. He
is an interesting character and worthy
of study. He is particularly interest
ing when he lives in the country and
has his Office in town, or when he lives
/ in the suburbs and il is a rainy. blus-
teTing dav. He first claims your atten-
ton on his arrival at the Office in the
morning. when ne sits down 70 unlock
his desk and-dOesnt. To be sure. all
his little everyday necessities are in
side that desk. bat he finally decides
that he can get along some way" and
VIII not have to go or send home for
the keys. As the day progresses he
becomes more and more interesting.
He goes for his maiI-he has the only
KEY at home. The man a. the box

him and politely asks If he can bring
somebody TO identify him. which he
finds IS not a pleasant experience and
full Of much curious cross purposes

remember 70 have ever seen before.
And then, presently. business suddenly
demands that he shall get some papers
out OF his box in the safe deposit vault.
There Is but ore way 70 open that box.
and that Is with the KEY which Is on

Minis They grew so wild that thu
orchestra player had to go and stano
upon the stage beside Monte and bow
his acknowledgements. And this was
something that an orchestra player at
the blhanbra had never done before.
As the curtain fell slowly and shut
them out from the people, Minis heard
Monte give a long sigh. He turned
toward her and saw a look in her face
that made him say, impulsively:
What is it, dear?"
Perhaps there was more potency than
he knew in the little word. Perhaps
his voice expressed more than the word
itself. However it was, I am certain
that no immodest or unmaidenly
thought prompted Monte as she threw
her arms around Minis neck and let her
head fall upon his shoulder, like a tired
child. And neither knew that the cur
tain had gone down just far enough to
shield their heads from the audience,
until relieved shouts and laughter and
bravos told how well the closing act of
their little drama had been received.
In the years that followed old Time
PLAYED some queer tricks. For Monte
undid much of the evil that had been
done to Minis. and the joy that she
brought into his life welled up and
shone out through his face, making It
younger. While Monte, as even the
prettiest girls viii, grew gradually
older, until It came TO pass that there
was not so much disparity between
their faces as would make one look
twice.
Whenever see Minis now I cannot
help question which IS the stronger Pc
tentiality in shaping Z mans life the
influence OF heredity or Of environ

The Cotton 6ett.

All trains on the Cotton Belt are running on time and make all points promptly according to schedule time. The road bed is in better con dition than eyer before, and the com pany has spent ali earnings over and above current expenses in inn proving the road and adding new transportation facilities We sim cerely believe the Cotton Belt is d friend to Pine Bluff
 The company is as much ashamed of their present headquarters for passengers fn this city as our citizens are. yet under. tine circumstances and the enormous expense the road has had to incur during the last year, we don't think complaint is applicable The Cotton Belt now pays 500 per month, $1oS0 per year for the use of the rooms they occupy on Third avenue, and all tehir other expenses in this city are i'll proportion. We believe we will have good depot in this city very soon, and we think 1t Is only right and proper that our cit izens should take into consideration the tact that the Cotton Belt is do- ing the very best that can be done, and even though they are an i'm mense moneyed concern, nevertheless they don't propose to further ieop- ardize the interest of the road by a lavish expenditure of money. Again We repeat we believe the Cotton Belt road is friend of Pine Bluff.

To the person who will get up the second largest list of sub scribers, we will pay 5000 in gold; for the third largest list, $250 in gold, and for the fourth largest list, $1. .00 in gold
 The DAILY GRAPHIC already has the largest number of subscribers both inside and outside of Pine Bluff of any other daily newspaper ever pub lished In Pine Bluff, but we desire to make the list still larger, and there- fore offer paying Inducements to secure additional subscribers,

PLATT NOT YET IN CONTROL.
Temporary Receiver for New Eng
land Appointed i'm Boston.

Receiver Thomas c. Plat had not
taken possession of the effects Of the
bankrupt New York and New England
Railroad this morning, although he is en-
titled to do SO under Judge Wallace's
order of yesterday.
President Mcleod still held the fort in
tie Company's offices in the Equitable
Building, and though he refused to talk
further of the situation. he said that the
polls would be open again after -
o'clock this afternoon for stockholders
to vote upon the lease OF the New York,
New England and Northern.
w. II. Hart was appointed temporary
receiver to-day by Judge Townsend, Of
Boston. His appointment was on the
same grounds as those advanced in the
case of T. &. Plat at Albany yesterday.
1t Is said that President Mcleod will
oppose any effort to secure a perma-
nent receiver.
1t Is still a question with many as to
whether Plat represents Mcleod or the
Prince-Erwin contingent. 1t was Nc
Leod who ousted the American Express
from the New England road in order to
give the business OF the latter to the
United States Express. OF which Mr..
Plat is President, but since then 1t Is
rumored these gentlemen have agreed to
disa and from this the Inference Is
with the Prince interest.
