The Apollo Ouartette.

Last night was the first appear ance in this city of the Apollo Quar- tette Concert Co.,, of Columbus, Ohio, and it was greeted by many of our lovers of classic music To say that 1t came up to the musical standard adopted at the Merrill Institute would indeed be a compliment 10 this company, considering that such excellent quartettes as the Schubert, Swedish, Mendelsshon and others as good have appeared at chat place. But as whole, the concert last night was not as good as has been here, though the performance on the flute by Mir. Chas. T. Howe were unusual ly well rendered and easily take rank among the best. Several pieces by the quartette, among them aThe Lovers Lament" and "The Old Ca noe" added greatly to the merits of the entertainment.

Yesterday the Mayor did a good act by advancing tie license of the patent medicine vendors who have been monopolizing the streets of Pine Bluff for the past week, to the sum of $l0 per day. The Chief of Police yesterday collected $60 from them which will go toward paying off the firemen of the city, It seems that there exists an ordinance which says that these men shall be granted a license and limits the charge for it at $l0 per day. Heretofore they have only been paying $5 per day.

Stole His Oyercnaf.

The Hon. $. NJ. Taylor was down town last night. Now. there is noth- ing unusual in this announcement. for Col. Taylor is frequent witness oi the scenes around town by gas light. But last night was q clear. crisp, cold night, and the distin- 2uished lawyer was without an over coat. A GRAPHIC reporter met him on Second avenue as the latter was en route home last night, and his frame was shivering and his teeth clattering as he was rushing to a warm and cheerful tireside.
 How are you, Col. Taylor?" asked the reporter.
 The attorney stopped, turned around and thus unfolded his tale of woe:
 ''l am the victim of a calamity. A few days ago I went into Dreyfus' store and bought me fine overcoat at cost of 1925. Now 1925 is d whole lot of money these hard times" and he gave a significant look at the re- porter. The reporter nodded his as sent and Col. Taylor continued:
 "I wore the coat home to supper and took it off and hung it up in the hall. After supper went into my room, looked over some legal docu. ments, and after I had finished, l started down town to my office When l got out into the hall I dis. covered some one had preceded me- the front door had been left unlocked my overcoat was gone, and you know the rest. l have been down to the police office and reported the affair, and l don't like the prospect of being without an oyercoat the re. mainder of the winter'
 The reporter admitted that it was not a very inviting prospect or com fortable contemplation in view of the hard times and cold weather ahead and after expressions of sympathy and moralizing upon the importance and value of keeping the front door locked at night, each proceeded on his respective way.

"Hell-Fire DiCk.n

Gen. Sir William Olpherts, v. c., is
the possessor of a unique sobriquet.
The manner in which he obtained it
shows the kind of metal Of which the
fine old hero is made At the time he
was serving before Lucknow he was a
dashing, daring captain. He was told
that one of his guns would burst if it
were served with another shell like
the last But another shell was neces-
sary, and Olpherts was determined 1t
should be fired. His gunners hesitat-
ed and without another word the cap
tain seated himself astride the gun.
"Arrah, ye devils" said he, will ye
fire now?" They did; the gun did not
burst; and the captain dismounted
amid the cheers of his men. This is
how the general is known unto this
day as "Hell-fire Dick" But why
Dick" instead of "Bill?" That, how
ever, must be asked the soldiers

An interesting and original person,
named Vaszary Kovacs, died in Hun
gary recently. He had been a Honved
in 1S4S, and then became a popular
comic actor. When too old to go on
the boards he discovered a strange oc-
cupation, which harmonized with, the
hobbies he entertained all his life. For
a small fee he carried the wooden
cross customary In Hungary In all the
funeral professions of the capital. The
last time he was noticed In this part,
which tour correspondents says) he
played like true actor, was at Kos
suths funeral. With his snow-white
beard and flowing white hair, the
wooden cross in his right hand, and
the left on his sword, he was con-
spicuous and dramatic figure. For the
last twenty years of his life he slept
in his coffin, which, with his own
hand, he had painted in the national
colors Of Hungary. He died in the
coffin, and his last wish was that the
lid should be merely nailed over him,
and that no one should touch his dead
body.-London Daily News.

The law of finding is not generally
understood, but it was declared many
years ago, and it is we'll to note the
case and the decision. A visitor to a
store found a wallet containing a sum
of money. He handed the wallet with
it's contents to the merchant, to be re-
turned to the owner. After three years
the owner having failed to appear, the
finder demanded the wallet and the
money from the merchant. The latter
refused to deliver them on the ground
that they were found on his premises.
The finder then sued the shopkeeper.
1t was decided that, against all the
world but the owner, the title of the
finder is perfect. The receiver of an
article found is only trustee, first of
the owner, then Of the finder, if the
owner does not appear. The receiver
has no right to keep an article against
the finder any more than the finder has
to keep it against the owner.-Buffalo

maple and hemlcck, darted among tho
trees, and listened, with his heart in
his ears, to the jungle and clatter of
arms as his comrades marched on. 1t

and he retraced his steps to the shed
with an armful Of dry leaves and
twigs, with which, by the sacrifice Of
one Of his few remaining cartridges,
he speedily made blazing fire. Vick-

half-shut lids.

Roland taking up his gun, and speak
ing in quite casual tone. "If there's
any game about, this weather will
drive 1t under cover. I'll be back
presently anyhow"
He flung some of the broken timber
of the shed upon the fire and went
cut.
He had not taken six PAGES through

and suddenness. "Good-by, Rolandw
