Cynching at Clarendon.

Jack Harris, colored, was hanged
by mob to the rafter in d wagon yard
at Clarendon. The men who took part
in the lynching, about fifty in mum
ber, are supposed to be friends of John
Coburn, white man who was seri-
ously injured by Harris. The mob
went to the Jail and demanded the
keys of Deputy Black. Sheriff Mil
wee, who resides near the Jail, heard
the noise and went to make an inves-
tigation. Suspecting that an attempt
would be made to lynch Harris, the
sheriff had spirited him away and
concealed him in a barn under guard
of one of his deputies. Mr.. Milwee,
knowing that his prisoner was not in
the jail, agreed to let a committee
the meantime, however other mem
bers of the mob were making a search
and located the negro and deputy in
the barn. The guard was so over
whelmingly Outnumbered that resist
ance was useless. Word was swiftly

at the Jail, which joined the party
with the prisoner. After a Short par
ley the prisoner was hustled to the
shed of wagon yard and swung up
to one of the rafters. The first trial
at hanging was a failure, as the rope
seems to have given way when the
buggy in which the negro was stand
ing was driven from under him. The
next time he was drawn up by hand,
and died from stranglulation, his neck
not being broken.

Meeting of immigration Agents.

An important meeting of the immi-
grafton agents of the Gould system
was held in st. Louis last week, the
object of the meeting being to formu-
late plans to settle with industrious
farmers and horticulturists the lands
owned by this company along its lines
in Arkansas and other states. The
agents made tour of the lines in this
state and were given a grand recep-
tion by citizens of Little Rock and
at other points. The Iron Mountain
system has been persistentlv advertis-
ing Arkansas abroad for many years,
and a good portion of the success
made within the last ten years in the
lines of horticulture and raising pro.
duce for foreign markets has been due
to voluable assistance given by the
Iron Mountain system.

TURN THE PoTTER's. WHEEL.
New In duStry II which Women Have
EARNED for Themselves High
standing.

There appears ITO be no end to the
avenues in which the women of to-
day find scope for their energies and
activities. Pottery making is the
latest industry in which they have
made their mark. The famous Rock
wood works were started by woman,
and many women are now turning
their attention to the possibilities of
the wheel. combined with deft fingers
and delicate fancy, in the manipulation
and designing Of clay, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
All over the country women are be-
coming interested in pottery-making.
Classes are being formed and find en-
thusiastic students ready to join them.
Several classes are already in opera
tion in Brooklyn and are giving time
to the acquisition of this practical art.
A local artist who is member OF one
of these pottery classes says:
sThe work is and will be,for some
time to come crude and imperfect, but
there is so much enthusiasm manifested
and promise of good work tocome that
the outlook is very promising. 1t is
proposed to have courses in pottery
connected with china painting socie-
ties. This will be great step in the
right direction. for the china painters
will not be dependent on conventional
shapes in pottery and the necessity of
the same design being used over and
over again, but each woman can de-
sign and model her own pieces and
thus give opportunity for the introduc-
tion Of original types"

EAGLE BURLEsQUERs AT THE
STAR.

Improvement is shown constantly in
everything, but nowhere else is it
more plainly visible than in the show
business. From, the time of Shakes
peare, when, in place Of scenery, small
painted signs were stuck up in varf-
Gus parts of the stage, saying, This is
a tree or This is a house." up to the
present day of realistic production, is
long step, but one in which the bur
lesque stage has not in recent years
been taking much part.
Congressman Tim d. Sullivan, of
New York, and George J. Kraus, his
partner, seeing the opportunity for a
great advance in the presentation of
burlesque, organized The Eagle Burles-
quers on plans laid out to make it a
company full of everything that is at
tractive, with dashes of spice enough
to whet the appetite. To this end they
have employed a clean cut olio of high
class specialties, such as are seen at
frequent intervals over the Keith &
Proctor circuits, including Ida Emer-
son, of the team of Howard and Emer-
son; Post and Clinton, the comedy
couple; Annie Hart, character come
dienne; Messrs Conroy and Mcfarland.

rSHERLoCK HOLMES" AT THE
METROPOLITAN,

The annual engagement of Herbert
Kelley and Miss Effie Shannon will
commence Sept. 20, at the Metropoli-
tan opera house, in William Gillette'S
dramatization of Conan Dayle's famous
creation of fiction, Sherlock Holmes"
the play that made such an enormous
hit in London and New York that it
ran a full season in each city.
Sherlock Holmes" as play has more
than duplicated the success it attained
as a book. 1t abounds in great situa-
tons, intense action, and spirited dia-
1ogues. The performance is attended
with the most remarkable light effects
ever produced on the stage. A city has
yet to be visited where it failed to
please the most fastidious and blase.
The performance here will be given
with the beautiful scenic environments
and strong company of supporting
players that won the highest approval
of the critics of New York and Boston.
Mr.. Kelley and Miss Shannon are
not presenting a problem play. Nor
does the play depend on sensational
lines or gun plays in order to attract
favorable attention. II is a story of a
lion, honest in his motives, battling
singie-handed against an organized
gang of cutthroats in order to de-
feat blackmailing scheme and to pro-
tect an Innocent girl
The engagement is for four nights
and Wednesday matinee and a guar
antee is given that nothing in the way
of scenery or properties will be elm
mated, but that the performance here
will be the same as when it was pre-
scented in New York

%THE SLEEPY KING" AT THE
METROPOLITAN.

There will be a revival of musical
comedy at the Metropolitan Sept. 25
and 20, when the Walter Jones Comic
Opera company presents for the first
time in this city Hobart & Conterno's
The Sleepy King" Additional inter-
est attaches to the appearance of this
company here inasumch as local cap
ital is invested in the production. All
of the labor required to prepare the
piece for the eye of the public was ac-
complished in the Twin Cities.
Even the cast was not complete I'M
til the Twin Cities had contributed a
fair quota of the requisite number.
Several we'll known vocalists have been
engaged, and they recognize in it an
tated a journey to New York, where,
according to tradition, big successes
must have their beginning.
The new piece contains twenty-Seven
musical numbers. Two acts and three
scenes permit the introduction of many
novelties. The music is said to be sure
to please popular fancy, TIE costumes
stunning, and the scenic and electrical
effects striking.
Walter Jones, who appeared in this
city last season with THE Chaperons,"
will assume the role of King Ozo
the sleepy king. 1t is alleged that he
has surrounded himself with a compe-
tent company Ihe Interpretation or
the musical numbers has received spe-'
cial attention, and good strong voices
are said to predominant in the chorus.

"SKY FARM" AT THE GRAND.

The country season in town is to
take it's recognized initiative at the
Grand opera house beginning tonight
with the big production of Edward e.
Kidder's new play of American life en-
titled "Sky Farm" which ran four
months at the Boston museum last
season to continuously crowded houses
and was subsequently withdrawn to
admit of its transfer to New York city,
before the close of the season. The
piece scored a run in the metropolis of
$50 nights at the Garrick theater, COM
pleting the entire season in the two
cities.
In the presentation of "Sky Farm it
has been conceded that the manage
ment has spared neither time nor ex-
pense hesftating at nothing to attain
the essential realistic effects and at
mosphere demanded by the play. In
respect to scenic equipment there is the
ready admission that the production
exceeds all past similar undertakings
in novelty and design.
AS may be inferred by the title, SKY
Farm is of the "Old Homestead" and
way Down East order, but fashioned
nearer to the hour. The story is
claimed to be drawn from life Mr.
