Have you in your Christmas wander
ings visited the new menagerie: Cost
nothing, maybe you would prefer one Of
the animals for present. Would certain
ly be an original AID interesting one
They look as naturafas life but it costs
nothing to keep them and no great
amount to purchase one. The deer is
probably the most expensive, though the
white woodchuck is rare specimen, and
would be ii fine ornament The cutest
one Of all is that funny looking four
weeks old bear. The dear little thing
looks SO knowing and innocent. His
head, like some human babies, is rather
out Of proportion to his body and makes
him look all the more interesting and
intelligent. Call and see the family at

the writer has not mentioned He did
not approach very near him, past expert
ence has made him cautious how he
approaches all animals.

 Aside from Mir. Taylor as Ice turer, there is 10 small degree of interest attached to him as q man and a politician. The many humor- ous incidents attendant upon his race for Congress form an interesting chapter iu his career His remark able race for Governor of Tennessee against his brother, Ali, during which they made d joint canvass of the State-fa familiarly known as the War of Roses and the many humorous incidents connected with that remarkable campaign have been interesting themes in political cir eles since that unprecedented and unparalleled occurrence.
 This is Mr. Taylor's first visit to Pine Bluff, and his talents as a lee turer as well as his remarkable pc litical career, will doubtless serve to crowd the house on the oeea- sion of his appearance in this city. It will be a rare occasion, and the GRAPHIC will guarantee a delighted audience.

 The most brilliant and dramati, event in amusement and lecture circles that has ever been known il the history of Pine Bluff will be tht lappearance here next Saturday eve ming of EX Gov Bob Taylor in his new lecture and latest success, en
 titled "Visions and Dreams. Pine Bluff has been visited by many able, brilliant and eminent lecturers in the past. but the greatest intel leetual feast and flow Of wit ano eleeaenee has been reserved fef them until next Saturday night. We have heard the eloquent Wend- ling, the polished Graves and the humorous Copeland, but in ex- Gov. Bob Taylor all three of these enter taining and edifying qualities are happily blended The success of this lecturer has been unprece- dented. His appearance on the lee ture platform has been like the rising of a new star, which has shed it's brilliant rays of mellow light over a universe. He is unquestionably the most versatile lecturer on the American platform. He moves his audience to tears or laughter at will As asword painter he has no equal. He thrills, electri6es and edifies his audiences to the highest degree, and rivets the attention of his hearers from the beginning until the faintest echo Of his last word has foated away as if on wings of fancy in the l presence of his audience. With his eloquence he carries his audience to the realms of fancy and visions of ineomparable loveliness, and then with some sudden sally of humor his hearers drop from the lofty flights of fancy to eonvulsive laugh ter, which will shake the house from center to circumference. A couple of years ago the writer was voueh- safed the happy privilege of hearing ex-Gov. Taylor, and the memory Of it is a joy forever. His eloq uence as we write yet rings in our ears. Upon this occasion he delivered his second lecture, entitled "A Paradise Of Fools to q large and enthusi- astie audience. At the beginning he eloqucntly pictured the Garden of Eden in brilliant colors, throughout the description of which he held his bearers as if entraneed by some spell of magic, but suddenly con cluded his beautiful picture with a song of the courtship of the monkey and the baboon to the tune of My Sweetheart is the Man in the Moon. The audience was at once convulsed with laughter, and it was several minutes before the brilliant lecturer was allowed to proceed. And thus itI'was throughout the delivery If his entire lecture.
 His new lecture, Visions and Dreams, is said to be by the press and those who have heard it. more eloquent and brilliant than either "The Fiddle and the Bow, or "A Paradise of Tools. "
 After one has heard Tennessee's 5 ex-Governor,it is easy to account for his popularity and success on the lecture platform. He plays on the strings of his hearers s delicately as he plays on the strings of his violin. Mr Taylor is a whole show within himself He is humor ous, eloquent and pathetic, and one who hears him once will go out to hear him again. He is undoubtedly tae greatest lecturer on tho plat form today, with the possible ex. |centionof Inuersol. anf1 if iss ssIvn,,fh

To Test Its ConstitutiOnnIIty

Judge T. H. Wilcox. OF Norfolk, was
in Richmond yesterday. and called upon
Judge Keith, Of the Supreme Court of
Appeals, in reference to the constitu-
tiOnality of the act transferring all the
chancery causes from the Corporation
Court Of Norfolk to the new Court OF
Law and Chancery. of that city.
Judge Wilcox wants a mandamus TO
compel the Clerk Of the Corporation
Court of Norfolk to issue a summons in
a chancery suit. and TO compel Judge
Hanckel, Of that court, 10 try the case.
thus testing the constitutionality of the
law.
The Supreme Court Of Appeals was not

quested Judge Keith 10 lay the matter
before the court when it assemblies to-
morrow. This will probably be done, al
though Judge Keith said last night that
he could not say positively when he
would present II 10 his associates.
