COURTS MAY LIMIT
 SCOPE OF LAW. Legal Counsel Advises Insurance Companies to Remain, Hold ing That Law is Practi- cally Unconstitu-
 tional.

Little Rock, March 6.-L. B. Leigh of L. B. Leigh & Co.,, gen. eral agents, left last night for New York in response to a tele- gram to attend a meeting of the National Board of Underwriters, which is to be held on Wednes- day to consider the Arkansas Fire Insurance situation. Emi- nent counsel have advised the companies that the extra terri torial features of the antitrust law are undoubtedly unconstitu- tional and that the courts must so decide. In view of this, it is probable that the companies may decide to continue in business after March 23, thereby forcing the state to institute proceedings against them which will test the validity of the act. Hon. J. M. Beck, former assistant attorney general of the United States, is among those who have pro- nounced the act unconstitutional.

OPERA COMPANY
 PLEASED HOUSE

The Moor's Bride" a very laughable comic opera, was most creditably presented Monday evening to small house by the Boston Ideal Opera Company, and for the credit of Newport and the good of this deserving troupe it is to be hoped that bet ter houses will greet this talent,
 immeasureably superior to the

general run of small town at fractions, for the two remaining dates.
 Tonight "The Mascot" played a few years ago by local talent, will be on the boards and this opera should by reason of local familiarity with the play have a special interest.
 These people not only embrace some very clever and original ac- tors, but good voices. Miss Lil- lian Shattuck and MT. A. c. Bur- gess, the former in the dual roll of twin daughters and the latter as one of her suitors and hus- bands in Marasquine, have splen- did voices, sing we'll together, and in fact bring down the ap- plause of the house. MT. Bur gess gave very fine rendition of "The Holy City,"
 Don Bolero's trouble and Mourzook's hair-raizing fierce ness contribute to the interest and fun of this little drama, and the players of these parts were in every way equal to the most ridiculous occasions.

The officers went to flIe house. but were advised not to force the door of the attic. When they reached the door they heard voice from within warming them that they would be shot if they entered.
