A ParIor Ornament.

Something which demonstrated that the human hair grows after death was discovered recently in Oolesville. N. Y. There lives in that town family named Howe, well to do farmers. They had a daughter, Jessie, 19 years old. She had beautiful golden hair. When she was stricken with fever, it was necessary to cut off her locks Finally she died and was buried. After two years the parents decided to remove the remains to another spot. The grave was opened. It was found that her hair had grown to reach nearly to her feet. It was as bright and glossy as though it's wearer was in the best of health. The tresses were cut off. They measured over five feet They were put into glass case in Mrs. Howe's home, where they are now shown to visitors. New York Press.

Georgia MinstreIs.

Twenty-four years is q long time for a company to he on the road un- der the same management. That Is the record of Richard & Pringle's Georgia Minstrels who will appear at the opera house one night, Wednesday, January 20.
 o. E. Richards, the manager, has grown gray in the business, butshas no desire to quit the road, as he claims he would not know what to do with himself. Billy Ker 'ands has been with him for eleven years, and has refused big offers from other managers, but knows where and when he is well off. The music with Richard & Pringle's Famous Geor- eia Minstrels is said to be very fine. The Crescent City Quartette which made such hit with the original Alabama" company in New York, IS also with the company.

PINE ARKANSAS TUESDAY EVENING 19 1887

deneg aruer monUns or agluaJ1on over the result of the election and with his title clouded by the questionable consti- nationality of the means adopted to set tie it, MT. Hayes invited to his council board a body of men who stamped his administration with strength and dig nity from the start When Garfield was running for president i'll 1880, the great est contribution to his success as the Re- publican candidate were the members of the cabinet of his predecessor and what they had done to quiet the tumult resulting from the disputed election of 1876.
 The peculiarity of Mr. Cleveland g cabinets has been the drafting in of men almost wholly from private life. Tn the present cabinet, as originally formed, Carlisle and Herbert were the only members who had been honored with any considerable elective office. Mr Gresham had received judicial ap- pointments and had held two cabinet positions, but had never been elected to any office of prominence. The remain ing five members were comparatively untried men i'll a public way, although all were men of very successful experi- ence in business or professional life. While MT. Cleveland has generally been fortunate in his selections, it may be set down as rule that legislative expe- rience is worth something, and that g president who selects large body of his eounselors from those who have had none of this experience runs risks of considerable magnitude. - New York Evening Post

Found In New Jersey-supposed to Have
 Been Deserted For Century.
 An Indian village has been discover ed by Constable George ". Sneft of Egg Harbor City, N. J. This was midway between Pomona and Mckee City.
 Sneft was fox hunting with a party of friends and passed through the dense forests, when suddenly one of their number spied an opening in the thickest of the brush They investigated it and found that it was an old Indian hut, still in good condition, as it was made of hickory wood.
 A further search revealed four other huts, and around them were found many arrowheads, darts, tonahawks and quantity of flint One of the tom ahawks had 8 covering of some animal skin and sharp arrowhead fastened to an end This spot covered but an area of about 200 feet and is so thickly surrounded by brush that it is safe to say it was not trod upon for nearly a century, although it is only 200 yards from well travelled road.

The HEinstrels Last Night.

The minstrel performance at the opera house last night, given by the Select Knights of A. o. U. w, was a creditable display of ah.ateurism. with few touches of professional work. No fling is intended when we use the word amateurism, since the vocation of the actor is high and exacting art and requires years of hardest application and heaven endowed fitness before he can pass muster before the footlights. Slight ly transposing the fine axiom of Virgil we can say of the actor, "Actor nascitur ct fit." Therefore, we say that, considering these things, the amateurs last night, judged as amateurs, did passing well.
 The posing given by Mir. and Mrs. Frank Graham aud little Sol Bloom to illustrate the melodies of the minstrels, received hearty applause
 Little Arthur Mehlinger won the blue ribbon and led HIS to believe that if he would aspire beyond burnt cork ahd those Imaginable "nigger shines" he would some day make all actor.
 The Serpentine Dance by Miss Chrystal Davis, of Little Rock, was we'll received, and likewise Mir. Dan Brennan's impersonation Of the old negro field preacher.
 The Sword Drill'' awakened no little admiration, and some of the jokes of the minstrel circle were not ehestnuts.
 Mir. Frank Graham as stage man. ager, officer of the drill, and as 'Rastus, the Coon, revealed plainly the fact that he was no novice on the stage.
 The audience was good, but not so large as the program deserved; but when it is reflected that the magnifi- cent Vending was in conflict with the minstrels' date, we need not further wonder at the house not be- ing full.
 Another entertainment, on more elaborate scale, will be given soon under the sane auspices and manage ment. The date will be announced hereafter.

world from the time of Christ to the present, outlining the chief his. torical events, and showing that the meek and lowly Nazarene had at last triumphed and accomplished the greatest advances of civilization and wrought the highest destiny of man.
 On the occasion of this lecture the Institute was crowded to its fullest capacity and witnessed the largest audience of the season.
 When Mir. Vending bowed him. self from the stage the audience broke loose in one spontaneous ap- plause, and when the lecturer enter ed the library room he was quickly surrounded and congratulated by many of his fortunate and happy hearers.

The scapegoat.

When the weather is not to his likirs And he's taken terrible cold Through imprudence audacious and striking, He feels that he's licensed to scold. In manners as fierce as Viking He forgets how the mischief was done, And his rage will resound
 In remarks most profound On the way that the governments run. If too freely the sun sheds caloric. Or if frostward the climate should stray; If the jests seem too flatly historic When he's seeking for mirth at the play; If he's purchased book sophomoric Or encountered narrowing pun, His wrath he'll display
 In the things that he'll say On the way that the governments run
