Holsters Cause a Panic.

The wife of Pittsburg real estate agent had expressed desire for lob ster. Not the common canned stuff, but live lobster, the real thing. The vender of town lots remembered this and before starting for home bought two of the finest, wide-spreading crustaceans that ever came out of the Atlantic. To insure their arrival in good condition he had them put up in a large market basket half-filled with ice and covered them with a piece of paper. As soon as he got on 9th avenue car the trouble began. Those Holsters grew tired of their seclusion and began to get in touch with their surroundings. The car was crowded and their owner had to stand.
 Suddenly sharp-faced spinster startled the car with screams of "Helpi Pickpockets! Policei" at the same time clutching the real-estate mans arm. Conductor, have this man arrested!" she exclaimed.
 Everybody looked at the supposed culprit and then those nearest the pair burst into laughter. One of the lob sters was still tugging at the lady's dress.

''OTHELLO."
The MacLean. .0dette Tyler Hanforo
 Combination a Popular One.

The engagement of the above com bination of tragedians and actors at the opera house Monday afternoon and night proved Il popular one. II was the first presentation of any Shakespearean plays in this city for several years. and the theater-going public, having been surfeited during the present and past seasons with light comedies, comic operas, etc., turned out in large numbers to wit ness the return of Shakesperean pro- ductions on the local boards.
 For d matinee the company pre- sented the Merchant of Vehice, ]" and last night "0thello," with Mr. Hanford as "Iago," and Mir. Mac- Lean in the title role. On account of illness Miss Tyler failed to appear at night as "Desdemonia, but her place was admirably supplied by q substi- ute.
 Mir. MacIean and Mir. Hanford supefbly played their parts and a more able rendition of "Othello' was never witnessed in this city. Mir. Richard Buhler as Cassie. also de serves special mention, as his inter- pretation of the character was the best ever seen here. The stars are well-sustained by an ably supporting company, and the large audience, both in the afternoon and night. were highly pleased and delighted.

A SOUVENIR CALENDAR.

The calendar for 1899, issued by the Adams-Wilson Printing Compa- ny, has several charms, making it worthy of a place in an cfice or home. In the first place, it IS very attractive and neatly gotten up Another feature is that the pictures of the two little girls to be seen on the calendar are true to life. The
 first i, picture of the daughter of Mir. James w. Adams, and the other is the likeness of the little daughter Of MT. T. J. Wilson.
 The Courier returns thanks for one of these souvenir ealerdars.- Pine Bluff Courier.

S2no. .OO0 for one word,

What would you think if you could make $250,000 by speaking single word? Hon. William M. Evarets, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat, once received the enormous fee of $25O,- 900 for legal opinion he expressed In just one word of three letters.
 A great corporation desired legal opinion on matter involving millions of dollars, for upon 1t practically de- pended that corporations very exist ence They decided to refer the ques- ton, which was wholly one of the cor rect interpretation of law, to William M. Evarts, and to be guided wholly by his opinion. Their lawyer stated their case to the Senator, and asked him the important question. Evarts reputa- tion and success are wholly due, not as a cross-examiner or conductor of cases, but simply to his remarkable knowledge of law and his power, which seems almost like intuition, of deter mining just how the Supreme Court will decide any question of law.
 When the attorney for the great cor poration put his question, so yitally important to that corporations exist ence, Evarts sat buried in thought for minute, and then answered in one word, "Yes." His bill for the one word was $250,000, and the corporation paid It without a murmur Evarts' answer x,,.<..ra1 t<x 1,<. of,rronf

A JOKE ON THE POLICEMAN
How n French Policeman Got Reinforce- ments to Capture a Supposed Thief.

How n French Policeman Got Reinforce-
 ments to Capture a Supposed Thief.
 Mile Jeanne Granier, the well known French actress, once met with an amusing adventure. It happened at Marseilles. In one of the little pieces she plays by herself she has for acces- sorry the lay figure of man, skilfully articulated and dressed in a travelling suit, with which she dances. The figure during her voyage was enveloped in a tight fitting covering.
 On reaching Marseilles 1t was left in the luggage room with other things. The curiosity of two railway employees being aroused at tbe sight of 1t, they took off the covering and resolved to play a joke on their comrades. They placed the figure iu an arm chair at the desk Of the cashier and shut the door. When the employees on night service came they opened the door and were surprised to see man sitting down before the cash box. They immediate ly closed and locked the door and ran for assistance.
 A policeman arrived, revolver in hand, believing, like the employees, that he had to deal with a dangerous thief He called on the figure to sur render and follow him to the sta- tion. AS 1t did not obey the summons, the policemen shut the door and went in search of endorsements to sur round the place, and thereby to prevent the culprit from escaping. The door was again opened, the armed force entered, and 1t was not until they had suddenly bounced on the poor lay rob- Der that they discovered the joke.

COUNTY CONVICTS BIDS RECEIVED ON THEM FOR THE NEXT
 TWO YEARS
JUST FOUR BIDDERS IN ALL
Messrs. John NJ. Oracle, 4. ". Eum, W. H. Lockhart and k. R,
 Adams Put in Bids.

County Judge W. D. Jones re cqived and opened bids at noon to- day for the feeding, keeping and working of county prisoners for the next two years.
 There were four bidders, as fol- lows:
 A. W. Mum. of Rives, Ark, made bid of $5 per month for each prisoner, the time lost in sickness to be deducted from each months labor.
 Mr. ". H. Lockhart, of Wrlghts vile; and Financial Agent of the State penitentiary, offered to pay the cost of conviction on all able bodied convicts provided the fine and sentence are double the cost, and provided the convict is not par doned within sixty days from sen tence. Also offered to care for the maimed, lame, etc., provided they are not bed-ridden or stricken with disease that is liable to cause death, but would not pay the cost of con viction in such cases.
 Capt R. R. Adams offered to pay the cost of conviction without reser- vation and also to pay 5 cents a day to the county for each days labor performed.
 All of the above bids include the cost of guards, feeding and clothing tLe prisoners, medical attention, etc. Judge Jones took the bids un- der advisement
 l. is the general opinion that Capt. Adams bid IS the best one, but there are some difficulties in the way of accepting it, one of which is that under bis contract Capt. Adams could keep all the prisoners in his possession after the expiration of the contract, until all fines, costs, etc, were worked out.

A Royal Inn-Keeper.

The King of Wurtemburg may cer- tainly be said to be the only Knight of the Garter who is a hotel-keeper as yell as monarch. This has long been tradition in his family, but not till lately was 1t discovered by the rulers of the beautiful little German kingdom how profitable inn-keeping can be- come. When Peter the Great was travelling ineognito through Europe he refused to stop anywhere but at an inn. To circumvent this whim the then King of Wurtemburg put tavern sign outside one of the royal palaces, and dressed as an inn-keeper, himself well comed the czar. This royal personages descendant now owns two large hotels, from which he Is said to derive rev enue of G12,000 year.
