OPENING OF THE LycE1rM

The Portsmouth Lyceum Theatre
was opened last night with Palmer's
New York Stock Co. The piece select
ed was THE Blackmail," a melo drama
in four acts. The company is COM
posed of twenty persons. All of them
are fairly good In their parts, but the
play is devoid of interest and Is not
such as will take with the people of
Portsmouth, who are theatre going
people and know how to appreciate a
good play. The audience was small
and did not show much appreciation
of the piece. No one regretted when
the curtain fell on the last act.
Tonight they present side splitting
comedy entitled THE Strange Adven-
lures of Miss Brown"

A SAUCY NEGRO.

Saturday night William Button, col
ored, who drives a wagon for Mr. Jen-
uings In Norfolk, came across the ferry
lbout midnight and went over on the
white peoples side of the boat. The
Hecl1 hand spoke to him. This caused
him to use such n TRADE of abusive
language about the white race that
several men wanted to handle him
roughly. The deck hand kent them
back until he reached the dock and
handed him over to the police.
Yesterday Justice Nash fined him
$3.50 and warned him not to repeat his
language. If he did he would get $40,
and possibly other punishment His
demeanor In court was impudent and
the court had to speak to him.

FIRE SuNDAY NIGHT.

Sunday night little before IL o'clock
an alarm Of fire was sent in from box
II. caused by the store of Ellenor x
Armentrout being on fire. Both engines
responded. but owing to the fire being
in the third story on the front. and
there being SO many wires in front OF
the building. it consumed some little
time before ladders could be hoisted
from the rear. The fire during this
time continued to burn. but was soon
put out after stream of water was
gotten on 1t.
The damage bt3--hfe -ltiss Hight Hight, bttt- by
water 1t was heavy. Messrs. Ellenor &
Armentrout are at a loss to know how
The fire originated, as there had been
no one in the building on Sunday and
there had been no fire in the store at
all. The only thing that was kept in
that floor was empty boxes and bar
rels. Their loss will be quite heavy, as
they carry large stock of -four and
sugars, as we'll as other goods. All of
1t was drenched.
They are insured with Emmerson G..

their loss. Besides this. the suspension

A cheerful place is Soraponjee, in In
dia. The rainfall there often Is as
great in one afternoon in the rainy
season as it Is in New York state In q
whole year, and tigers and leopards
are as plentiful as dogs are on New
York's east side. On account of the
tremendous dampness the cattle have
to be driven to the top of the hills, so
that they shall not get their feet too
wet, and the tigers and leopards climb
to these high attitudes also, because
they are imbued with the kindly desire
to save those cattle from pneumonia
and other ills by eating them carefully
and with due enjoyment.
As there are no forests on the hills
the tigers prowl about all night In the
open, lying concealed during the day
in the limestone caves, the coal pits
and between the crevices Of the rocks.
The residents come upon them in all
manner of odd hooks and corners SO
unexpectedly that the beasts are as
much alarmed as themselves and usu-
ally scamper off In one direction, their
disturbers flying In the opposite one
No one stirs out at nighttime without q
powerful lantern or torch, for, as a
rule, wild beasts will not come near a
light, though this rule does not hold
good In all cases.-New York Herald.
