Cabaniss in solemn manner per formed the ceremony that was to tie forever the parties together, after which the bridal train moved from the altar in the following or der: Bride and groom; Messrs. Brun- son Hammett, best man; and Drew White, brother to the bride who gave her away; ushers F. W. Hoy Teri and R. P. Davis, Turner Brad ford and Mack Hammett.

THE ELECTION IN ENGLAND.
What the Newspapers OF the is' itish Isles
 Think of the Republican Victory.

LONDON, Nov. 30.-The radical weekly Times and Ech', in speaking of the recent elections in the United States, says: "It is impossible for any one to estimate rightly the real causes of this swinging back to Re publicanism. Whether the voters, sick of the present state of things, simply wanted change, or that the majority are still protestionists at heart and resent the passing of the Wilson tariff, or that Mr Cleve- lands personal popularity is waning and that of the Democrats with him, is as yet perhaps uncertain.

THE BABY SHOW.
The Event Was Largely Attended and a
 Financial Success.

The baby show at the Merrill h. stitute yesterday afternoon from to
 3 o'clock was Q unique and interest ing event and one that will long be remembered by all who witnessed 1t. It was the first baby show, so far as we have been able to learn, ever held in the history of Pine Bluff, and the handsome and spae- ious parlor and library of the 1nsti- tute were filled to overfowing. It was interesting to the observer to watch the intense and eager inter- est of the good mothers and proud fathers on that occasion, all hopeful and confident of securing the prize for their "dear one" It is one of the fortunate traits of human na- ture that all parents think their own children the cherriest, bright est and prettiest. babies in all the broad, broad world, and each fond parent yesterday did not see how any other baby but his or her own could take the prize.
 The judges had a most difficult and unenyiable task before them. and, indeed, there were so many pretty babies present that it re- quired some time for them to reach fiual conclusion. It should be a source of satisfaction to all Pine Bluffians to know that the beauty, chivalry and witt which has so long been some of the characteris- ties of this community, will not pass away for at least several genera tions. Indeed, from the pretty, handsome faces, the. delicate and classic features, and the bright. brilliant and sparkling eyes of tho little ones on exhibition yesterday it was apparent that many of the babies give great signs of improve ment over their parents, all of which goes to establish the theorythat the race is advancing and not declining, as contended by the pessimist, but that each generation is an improve ment on the one that preceded it, and that mankind is being rapidly carried on to higher state of de- velopment and a higher plane of civilization, culture, beauty and per- lection.
 In the attendance yesterday, as might be expected, the presence of ladies predominated, and the eager ness they displayed at the different stages of the exhibition was truly amusing. The dear little babies, or at least the most of them, played their most amusing antics, axd dressed in their neat and elegant costumes, each came in for a full share of attention and examination. At several stages of the proceedings the clamor of conversation Gall the women trying to talk at once) and the crying of babies made noise the like of which has not been known since the confusion of tongues at the Tower of Babel.
 About 4 o'clock the judges, Capt. $. Geisreiter, L. E. Goldsmith, and MT. J. w. Wallace, tn, ough Capt. Geisreiter as spokesman, announced that there would be three prizes, as follows: One for the best looking baby from l to 6 months old; one from 6 months to l year, and one from l to ? years:

Toney Farrell,s Naw rIar.

Toney Farrell, the talented sing ing Irish comedian, vocalist and dancer, will present a scenic produe- tion of his new Irish comedy drama at the Opera-house Saturday even ing December 1. It is hardly neces- sary for us to remind our readers that we have in MT. Farrell one oi the sweetest singers and neatest impersonators of the true Irish char. acter upon the American stage. Since the days of Dion Boueieault no one is so near an approach to that great artists methods in de picting all that is good and noble in the native Irish character as if Toney Farrell. To his credit it car be truthfully said that Mr. Farrel employs none but legitimate meth ods. While his new play, Garry Owen, is replete with strong situa tions, and demands beautiful scenery, which Mr Farrell provides with good taste, wit, humor, pathos abounds, and song and music lend . charm to the whole. There arc many good character parts which are in good hands, and the story of the play is not only intensely inter esting but carries with it strong moral lesson.

From l to 2 years

The prize, a silver puff box, was awarded to Jessie Taylor Core.
 After the awarding of prizes there was an ominous silence throughout the crowd, and disappointment was depicted on the faces of many, while the hearts of the parents of the win ners were filled with joy. The judges beat a nasty retreat through the back door, and in few minutes the vast audience had dispersed.
 The receipts of the exhibition, which was given under the auspices of the Young Ladies Guild of Trin- ity Episcopal church, amounted to $60. 40, and thus has ended the mem orable baby show.

ESQ Dear Sir: have carefully read
the communication YOU lately placed

ton of political doctrine, Your asso.
citation has done much by way of edu.
eating our people touching the partic-

nizcd as belonging TO the Democratic
faith, but it seems to me that its best
service has beeu an enforcement and
demonstration of the truth that II
party is best organized and most pow.
erful when il strives tor principles in
stead of spoils. and it quickly responds
to the stimulus supplied by an enlist.
ment in the peoples cause.
This acknowledgment of tbe import

ment of true Democracy suggests that
the National Association of Democrat

agency, should labor increasingly and
earnestly to saye our party in this

from the degradation and disgrace of

All who are charged, on behalf OF

dcmption of these pledges should
now be impres.ively reminded that as
We won our way TO victory under the
banner OF tariff reform, so our insist.
ence upon that principle is the condi
ton OF our retention Of the peoples
