Tunisian Treaty Gives the Latter Further
Rights.

LONDON, Oct. 5.-After a long discus
sion the new Tunisian treaty between
France and Italy has been signed, thus
solving one of the most ticklish ques-
tions between the two counties, the adj

impossible a little while ago. Italy
under the new treaty surrenders her
rights to try her own subjects in her
own conrts in Tunis and receives i'll ex-
change commercial accessions, among
which is the right to have Italian ves-
sells admitted to French ports under
the same conditions as French vessels,

France.

In the Flames.

ANTLERs, l. T., Oct. 5.-At II p. m.
Spencer academy, located 10 miles west
of Antlers, burned to ashes. -Four
Choctaw boys were burned to death in

be incendiary, as no one was occupy ing
the room in which the fire broke out
and there has been no fire in it this sea-
son. The academy was built by the
Choctaw Nation and 102 boys were
there when it burned. Everything is a
total loss, as the Nation did not carry

Mothers In Trance.

If French law is illiberal ia most matters that concern the married woman from the wifoly point of view, it allows a mother rights which arc not enjoyed by those of other natio1s whose legal position IS for tha rest so superior. She has voice in that thoroughly French institution, the conseil dc fatnille, and a spendthrjft's nterty of action may be restrained by maternal intervention alone when backed by a decree of the courts. It is no very uncommon occur renee for q man who has long passed his majority 70 be deprived Of the free use of his fortune ill this way. In some instances be is himself q party to the transaction, being thoroughly convinced of his own inability to withstand temp tation. More frequently, of course, he makes q struggle to preserve his free dom, but judges are rather prone to side with the parents. \ case of the kind has lately come before the courts. The Comte A. de Montesquiou, who is said to have gambled away 8 large snm in few months, has, at the instigation of his mother, the countess been placed under trustee. so that henceforth ii will not be in his power to impoYerish himself i'll this or in any other way.

Of the Eugene Rowland Concert Company, which appears at the Opera house in this city next Wednesday night, The Torch. a Memphis magazine says:
 Ith&s been written of music that it is '.that elevated at which ani- mate9 the passion by sound There are few who have not felt it's charms and acknowledged its expressions t5 be intelligible to the heart. It breathes to the ear the dearest in- timations: it touches and greatly aeitates the agreeable and noble passions; it wraps US in melancholy and elevates us in joy; it dissolyes aaa influences; it melts us to ten deraess and excites us to war.
 Of all the instruments ever m vented 10 charm the ear, none there is more perfect, more apt to awaken the tenderest and sweetest emo tions than the violin This is the instrument which Eugene Now land has chosen as the medium by which he hopes to hold his audi eaees spel1-bouad and to ascend the toilseme adder tEat leads to fame.
 His pros ptets aee of the bright ct; h;s talent and genius admit of no discussion, and those who have had tie good fortune to be present at the two performances with which h lnaugurated his present tour are os one mind as regards his power of ex 3ressiou and splendid technique. T Iey ali wish him well and pro paesy glorious future for this young Southron
 Mr. Rowland has been exceeding l Y fortunate in the selection of the members of his company. Mrs. Carnes is well and favorably known wherever she has appeared before the footlights. Her voice is sweet 1 ly melodious, and of bell-ike pur- ity, while her personal charms and diction are most pleasing, MT Gerbig, a Hoaander by birth, is master of his instrument with a deiieacy of touch and strength Of expression in his execution, which give him rank among the first pianists of the world

Miss susie Gentry of Franklin will have q gourd exhibit in the Woman $ building at the Tennessee centennial. Ske has discovered many uses to which the goGrd was put in primitive days. Gourds can be used as Heeeptacles for lard, sugar, dried fruit, preserves, salt, soap, powder, shot, etc. As many as 50 dozen eggs have been packed in an egg gourd ? There are four varieties of nest egg gourds-goose, duck. turkey and hen eggs-all true to nature in shape and size. Gourds have been used as dip pers straineTs, tunnels, martin boxes, squirrel cages, life preservers. banjos, dishrags, spinners and baby rattles Among ornamental uses are vases, table decorations, toilet receptacles, purses and euriosities in the shape of d snake gourd and wine bottle

Told Different Taies.

Conflicting statements, and incl dentaIIy, the stealing of cattle, is the cause of two negroes, Wm. Green and Ben Rayford, being con- fined for safe-keeping in the county Jail
 Saturday morning as Deputy Con stable Creed Taylor was coming to town from the Taylor place, he saw two negroes driving cattle through the woods in a suspicious manner. 9e approached one of the men and questioned him as to how he came by the cattle and where he was talk ing them. The man failed 10 give satisfactory explanation, and he was l.aced under arrest. His com panion was then called up and ques- tioned, Their stories failed to cor roborate and the officer brought both men to town that in a court justice they might prove ownership to the cattle in their possession-if they could.

PatrOnize Home.

There is disposition among some people to think that anything that comes from Eabroad is superior 10 that which they have at home. The unpardOnable pride displayed by this class in boasting of their foreign-bought goods has Cften been observed and commented on. More or less of this class can be found in every community, but, perhaps, to q less extent, 1 thanks to the common sense of our people,, in this commu, nifty than any other of which we have any kno wledge.
 But the assumption of foreign superiority is entirely erroneous at least so far as Pine Bluff is seoncerned. Pine Bluff is no town of third rate importance. It is strictly up to date in all that contribute to the happiness, well-bcinG and comforts of modern society. It is not only one of the important trade centers of the State, but prosperous, and pro grcssive city, perhaps as prosper ous, under ordinary circumstances as any city similarly situated and with lik 2 numerical population, as any city in the United States.
 It's wholesale and retail houses are as well prepared for business and t0 meet competction from every quar- ter as any city in the State, including Little Rock.
 Its retail merchants carry as large stocks of goods and purchase them at as low prices as any house OF hous es in the State. In fact, ill con sequence of freight competetion by river, Pine Bluff merchants, whole sale or retaiB,can sell goods cheaper than Little Rock, Fort Smith, Tex arkana aud other Arkansas cities and towns less fortunately situated.
 Therefore patronize home. You can buy as cheap dress and dry goods, shoes clothing, hats. printing or anything else as cheap, if not cheaper nPine Bluff than any other town or city in Arkansas

GANPATGN FENDS.

The National Democratic Com mittee, We are reliably informed, is sending out private letters solic- iting contributions to the cam paign fund. There is no disguis- ing the fact that the Committee is in need of funds. Small contribu. tion are being made by private indi- viduals from all over the country, but these contributions, in the az gregate, are small, and in compali- son with Inc millions contributed by the miiiiosaires aad mouopoHsts to the Republican campaign fund are inhnitesmas
 The patriotic people Of this land who want to witness the triumph of their cause over the combined ef. forts Of allied and seIash,plutocracy, should, therefore, subscribe their dimes and dollars to cause which 50 vitally affects their interests.
 The GRAPHIo. in it's humble way, is endeavoring to impress this fact upon this community, and we are gratiaed to state that its efforts have not been entirely IF vain. Its efforts have borne substantial fruit in . voluntary contribution h this community aggragating about $l00 Part of this sum has been forwarded to the New York .Jomaal, by which the amount has been duplicated and turned over to the National Committee. The re mainder will be remitted tomorrow. But Pine Bluff should subscribe more. Those who have subscribed have done so very loerally, but there are others enthusiastic in the cause, from whom a small con tribution would, 10 doubt. be very acceptable to the National Commit tee.
 As the election is only fev weeks of, those who intend to sub scribe to the fund should 10 so a once.
 The GRArnlc will probably no prolong it's efforts to raise cam paign funds after this week.
