The bond of $500 executed by Charles
l. Armstrong. arrested Monday for rob-
bing the United States mails of $4,000,
has been adjntlged insecure by District
Attorney Henry D. Clayton, and Arm
strong is called on to execute another.
1t seems that there are two charges-one
of cutting open the mail pouch, and the
other Of taking the package of money
therefrom, and it requires a bond of $500
in each case.
Armstrong has not yet made the addi-
tional bond, but will no doubt find little
trouble in making it.

1t is rumored on the street that
the Iron Mountain and the t. up.
railroads are unjustly discriminat.
ing against Texarkana, in the mat
ter of rates for the proposed Mon
roe Stave Co., about to locate here.
AS we get it these roads want said
stave company to locate at either
Fulton or Longview, andif so locat-
ed offer them same rates as offer
ed lumbermen; say they can not
give this rate for Texarkana, The
Iron Mountain also asks excessive
switching rates, from the stave
company, we learn. If all this is
true, our people want to know it,
and if these two roads, (Which re-
ceive thousands of dollars in freight
every month from Texarkana)
keep up such unjust and alto
gether unfair discrimination, our
merchants and business men will see
to it that other lines get their busi-
ness. We certainly expect these
and other roads to deal right by
Texarkana, in helping to secbre this
big enterprise, and not force it to
go to Shreveport or elsewhere, on
account of their not doing this. We
ask Messrs. Townsend and Meslier,
freight agents for the two roads, to
straiphten out this matter at once.

An amusing incident happened on
the stage last night in the Bird act.
II was a parlor scene, Richard
Parker was shown in bis dressing
gown, and after saying his piece
and dlvesting himself of his gown,
he called for Brown, his man serv-
ant, to take the same and at the
same time take up the cue, but
Brown was no where to be found in
the wings and a repeated calling
did not bring him, The actor
clnched his fist and said something
that sounded like a smothered
"damit' and gave the signal for the
curtain to come down, A genuine
litter was heard all over the house
Brown was soon found and the
curtain went up again and the play
went on smoothly. Such things
happen once 10 o while on the best
regulated stages and with the best
