PAGE COLES TROUBLE.
Page Cole a familiar figure on Olney-
Vile square, was in a sore frame OF mind
today as the result of an experience by
which a reflection was cast on his hon
esty, and Justly earned coin was diverted
from his little pile.
Page carries on a white washing bust
ness and he makes his headquarters at
the corner of Stokes street. While on tne
street yesterday he found "a pair of gold
bowed glasses which had been dropped
by lady. Someone whoI saw him pick
up the glasses notified the lady and she
at once made a demand for them. Page
gave them TO her and she quietly placed
them in her pocket and walked off with
out as much as thanking the finder.
That is what cut Page and now he be-
lieyes the one who gave the information
TO the lady also made her believe that he
was waiting for her to offer reward.
81 was always fool, anyhow" he re-
gretfully declared today.

Suburban Little Rock.

It was ur.pleasure to spend few days in and around our neighboring city, Little Rock, the first of the present week. The city proper needs no criticism from us, for its geographical situation and nat ural advantages is bound to push it to the front rank of cities. IL is of her suburbs that we wish to speak.
 Stretching out in every direction mag nificent graveled bikes lead to resorts and scenery unequaed anywhere. By the courtesy of friend We enjoyed spin of eight miles over the Arch street boulevard to the Granite Mountain Mineral Springs These waters are beneficial to dyspeptics and gush from the earth in charming cove among the hills. Naturally it is a beautiful place, but being under no care the people abuse the privilege. Many peo- pie visit this resort daily. while others board and camp in the neighborIiood.
 Various other beautiful resorts were visited during our stay, but the best was left for the last-a visit to Pulaski Heights, about two miles west of the city, on pla- teau of the mountain, 200 feet above the river level. This tract of land was bought by parties, principally from the North. in search of health and comfort. About a dozen modern cottages nestle on this plat eau, surrounded by all which makes life worth living. The views from the Heights [ would charm an Achenbach. Three or four roads lead to this enchanting spot but for the romantic inclined the river road Is d dream. At the commencement of the de- scent magnificent views present them selves, and unless your driver Is of stoic temperament. there is danger of driving over the preciplce during the reyery one is apt to fall into while viewing these beau ties of nature. The temperature on this plateau is delightful in summer and win ter, and its heathfulness cannot be sur passed. Many people, both from the North and the South. are buying lots and build ing in this eIysium.. .Ye cribe appreciates tie Lospitality of Mir. x Mrs. A. Retan ard

can show such abundance of true gen jus and artistic performance.
 Perhaps the most excellent number was the recitation by Mrs. John NJ. Nichos-"Scenes From the Last Days of Pompeii." To commit and recite without prompting such volum- inous and thrilling romance requires cultivation of d very high order, not to speak of her Delsarte and elocutionary accomplishments. all of which are sel- dom tqualled in the social circles of our towns and cities. If We are q judge of high art in thls particular line, and we may say that we have listened 70 quite number of celebrities, then we feel no hesitancy in saying that Mrs. Nichols ranks favorably with most of them, and indeed eXcelis a greater part.
 There were other numbers deserving special mention. In fact all were rem dered in a most credtable manner, but we have so often written our apprecia- tion of the abilities of these friends, that we can find no new or more ex- pressive language to describe thelr merits.
 The work of Miss Mamie Mann, who is visiting in the city, was highly ap- preciated by all who heard her per formance upon the piano. She demon- strated her high cultivation, and IS an artist of no mean ability. She pre- sides it the instrument with becoming grace, has d light and beautiful touch and charming execution. She was re. called by hearty encore.
 Qmte large attendance netted the Home Builders about S20.
 The door was presided over by Misses Anna Lee Cobb and Maggie Eldridge, and they spared no pains to see that each patron was made comportable. We thank them for their grace and courtesy.
