And Bob Will Not Go Gut of Nights With
 the Boys Any More.
 He had married the girl of his heart, and she was all his fancy painted her, and more, too. and he should have been as happy as Il clam at high water, but he wasn't Somehow he had got ill with tho old fast set and took to spen ling his evenings away from home, running around town with the boys.
 His wife demonstrated, made herself charming and agreeable, but failed to keep him at home in the society of her self and their friends Things were go- ing from bad to worse whom she sud denly hit on scheme to recall him to herself
 One night he was particularly request ed to como homo early He, as usual, failed to comply, and it was midnight when he hurried up to his steps, opened the door with his latchkey alsl found his home blaze of light and filled with a largo company He was met by his best man of year before, who, in full evening dress, hurried him up stairs.
 Jump into your d1ess suit, Bob The minister is here to marry you over again.
 Mary me over again?' gasped Bob, blinking about in the light What do you mean?'
 "0h, it's 9 custom of his to visit each couple he marrios on the annivcg- sary of their wedding day, aud, after asking 8 lot of questions, to read the vows over and have tlem respond. Ho thinks it's g good idea, and so do we all. ''

 When Bob entered the parlor, he look ed like anything but happy bride groom. He was shamefaced and wor ried but when he saw Nellie, as fair and lovely as she had looked at their nuptials, he braced mp. and in few minutes was listening to tho "I charge ye" of the minister and feeling very much as if it were solemn as funeral.
 Then came congratulations and pres ents and social merrymaking, and when the company left Bob told them that he would begin new honeymoon that should last as long as he lived.
 And he kept his word. He says that if young married people could keep their anniversaries ill that manner they would not forget the obligations bind ing upon them, and he gives his Nellie credit for having long head as we'll as 3 loyal heart -Detrcit Free Press.

A WONEERTUL PLAY.
Pearson.s Great Spectacular Play 'she, to be Produced at the opera-House
 Tonight.

A fine treat is ill store for the amusement loving people of Pine Bluff, A. Y. Pearson's big scenic pro duction s'She" being the attraction attraction at the Opera-house to- night The dramatization of ..She" as presented by Mf. Pearson's com pany is from the pen of Mir. Edwin Barbour, author of the Legal Docu- ment, ; 'sThc Land of the Midnight Sun and "The District Fair" and is said to be the finest ever produced. The scenes and situations are grand, the story as told by Haggard is de veloped in every particular and the strange characters only heard of i'll fiction are depicted in real life.
 Haggard's story opens in the nineteenth century. while Mr. Bar bour's goes beyond and opens his play 40 years before Christ, giving to the public the characters in life that Haggard only mentioned as mythical The mechanical effects are startling, showing q real live person slipping into a roaring volcanic flame and in an instant, before the very eyes, is shriyelled into q mummy. The scenery used in the play is the handsomest ever painted for pro duetion of this kind, and covers some 15,000 feet of canvass. The company, numbering twenty-five people. are picked from the best ranks of the profession and are sclec= ted for their individual ability to portray the characters for which they are cast. The play has an abundance of comedy. that keeps the audience in good humor throughout, and with several small speeialties introduced the performance can not but be pleasing to all.

A HOUSE WITH A ROMANCE.

First the Home cf Quaint Quaker and
 Then of g Lottery King.
 On tongue of wooded land formed by the Glebe and Goldsborough creeks in Talbot county there is Q house with Q romantic story When, ill 1861, Wen lock Ghristiaon, tho Quaker, was seized by Puritan mob headed by the Rev. Seaborn Cotton, tried and condemned by Governor Endicott to die, pardoned by the king and let off with 2 flogging at the carts tail on the highway, he found sanctuary in Maryland, where Lord Baltimore granted him asylum on tho tongue of land that eeols itself i'll the pleasant waters of St. Miehael3s river-Miles they call it now Here the indomitable Quaker abode and prosper ed, wearing his hat ill the presence of governors and magistrates and testify ing for 'sthe truth and the light with out fear of clubs or cart tails. Those easy going eastern shoremen actually made him a burgess, and he and his de- scendants long dwelt ill peaee ill the old brick manor house, of which a frag ment still survives.
 Tn time by lapse of heirs tho place fell to the possession of Richard France, the famous lottery king of Maryland who built the turreted villa there and adorned the ground with fountains and winding walks, eonserYatories and gar den gods, to tho effuaive wonder and admiration of the natives But Mary land, taking up scruples set her face against lotteries, and France for time coquotted with Delaware until Della ware in like manner turned prudish, and the last we hear of tho ''lottery king" is that he had died in debtors prison.
 Then the garden gods fell on their faces, and thorns sprang up and choked them, and all was desolation and respect ability. Again the villa waited not in vain, for one day the windows were opened, exposing all the ghastly gaps iii their panes, and Q strange man, un- tidy and shock headed, pottered about in the weedy, seedy garden, a grim and churlish recluse. But negro curiosity. once sharply piqued, is persistent and penetrating and forthwith Ethiopia be-

And pres ently the disheveled interloper was joined by a bearded and venerable com panion, with head like pear, who lurked and waited behind the close gates and the screen of shrnbbory. Then a furtive yacht at night ill St. Miohael's river took the bearded mystery aboard and was off to the bay and the sea, and the police, who went pol1ing about the place day or two later, looked foolish and asked one another inane conun- drums about tho cunning fitting Of Boss Tweed -"Old Maryland Homes and Ways" in Century.
