THE STATUTUES HIS GUIDE.
Our sherin Eniorces the Laws as the Law
 Directs.

For several days Dp. l. B. De Roehers, an unusually intelligent man and a smooth and convincing talker, has been selling q medicine on the streets of this city. This morn ing Sheriff Chas. H. Triplett ordered his arrest on the charge of hawking ar peddling wares without license. This was done under section 55SS and section 5596 of MansfeId's Digest of the statutes of Arkansas, which reads as follows
 SECTION 55SS. There shall be levied and collected as state tax the sum of twenty-five dollars on each and every Aawker or peddlef, whether by land or Watep, for the privilege of hawking and peddling goods, wares and merchandise throughout this State for the term of six months and less.
 SECTION 5596. There shall be col lected as q county tax: First. The sum of twenty-five dollars on each aad every hawker or peddler. by land or water, for the privilege of hawking and peddling goods, wares and merchandise in any county in this StatR fer the term of six months and less.
 The doctor was forced to pay into the Treasurer's hand the sum of $54 for the privilege of selling his medi~ cine in this city, to say nothing of the city license.
 He entered a vigorous protest against what he claimed was an out rage, and said that he would spend thousands If dollars, il necessary, to get even" with the Sheriff.
 The Sheriff, in his usual calm and dispassionate manner, stated tLat he had simply done his duty as an officer under the statutes of the statn, and that if the doctor believed that he had been done an injury the courts were open to him for redress, and. as the Sheriff was a responsible party, with a good bond, 1 if the courts awarded the doctor damages he could collect it from the bondsmen of the Sheriff
 Sheriff Triplett, in collecting this l haagy liee1se. Is simply doing his duty, and # it is 2 fact, as the doctor asserts, that he is lheonly officer in the State who is mailing him pay such Il license, this faetis a credit to OUT Sheriff.

THE PRIZE WINNERS.
Infants Who Captured Honora at tue
 Raby Show.

Tine baby show, which took place at Merrill Institute on the afternoon of Thanksgiving Day, under the auspices of the Young Ladies Guild of Trinity church, was grand sne= cess, financially and socially, The hall was filled with prond mothers with their sweet little cherubs, and, of course, each one felt that her child would certainly capture the first prize, and that if it did not, it would be due to the poor tasteof the judges.
 To avoid all questions of partiali- tY that might arise as to the decis- ions, the ladies in charge of the show secured the services three traveling men, who were strangers ta the children, to act in the all important position of judges to decide upon the merits of the dozen or more babies entered for the prizes, and their yer dict was as follows:
 Class No. l, three to six months; Charlie Moore.
 Class No. ?, six months to one year; John Franklin Westhroak,
 Glass No. 2, one to two years Hicks Riley,
 Class No. 4, two to three years, Elizabeth Mccarthy.
 The above four children are cer- tainly little beauties, and it was the general opinion that the prizes were properly awarded.
