WHY ODD WORE ovERCoAT
Day Was Warm, but Fashion Mentors
Trousers Hadn't Been Pressed
for Two Days.


Delos Odd is a clerk in the Office
OF broker Now, Delos has been
pronounced by a certain authority as
the mans fashion mentor of the town.
Some time ago the broker had rush
order to fill in the sale of some
bonds. The wasting of q few min
utes might mean that the sale would
fall through and that the broker
lose a fat commission.
"Delos, run to the bank and get
those bonds Be quick" the boss or
dered.
The bank was less than a half
block away The weather was quite
warm. With deliberation Delos slipped
on his coat and then his overcoat and
went out In a few minutes he re-
turned with the bonds. The sale was
made and the customer left.
Now, will you kindly tell me, Mr.,
Odd" the broker asked, after a pre-
liminary sputter or two, "just why
you stopped to put on your overcoat
to go such short distance, and espe-
cially when the weather is 30 warm"
Odds face showed surprise that such
a question should even be asked
why, SIR he said, with a patron
izing smile, didn't you notice that
my trousers hadn't been pressed for
two days?"

member of the firm, in order to COM
lpromise and keep the matter a secret.
She pointed out to Blake that it would
be possible for her to return the money
soon, as she was working on a statue,
which was to be sent to Washington,
| in competition for an award for a mon
ument which was to be placed in the
National Art Muesum. Blake informed
Miss Adams that money could not buy
immunity for her brother, and made
her a proposition, that is she would
live with him as his common law wife,
not only would be cease prosecution of
the brother, but he would set him up
in business for himself, and also see
that her mother was well taken care
of.
Miss Adams was finally forced to ac-
cept Blakes demand, but did so with
a proyiso, that he would give her a
chance to win the prize for the award
for the monument, and accept this
money in payment for what her broth
er had stolen. Blake finally agreed to
accept her proposition, stating that he
would hold her to his proposition,
should she fail to get the award When
the statue was finished, and the day
for shipment came, through clumsyli-
ness of the draymen who were ordered
to move the statue to the depot. it
was dropped and broken into pieces.

When Blake had been informed of
the state of affairs, he at once com

proposition and live with him as his

The actors who were playing the scene, began to snicker and forget lines, while a general litter went through the audience. One of the ac- tors approached the cage and tried to hush the bird but that worthy wisely cooked his head on one side saying, ''Aw, go chase yourself" and the actor retreated in confusion
 Polly redoubled his attentions but seemed to lose his temper at receiv- ing on response from his new folund acquaintance for he suddenly drew himself up in naughty way and re- luarkedl ''You--lobster, why in

 He was hastily removed but his strident tones had penetrated every corner of the theater and it was some time before the play could proceed. The Della Fox company use a. stuffed parrot exclusively now.

MME. BERNHARDT'S NEW PLAY.

Le Proces de Jeanne d'Arc by Emilio Moreau, is a play based upon the trials and tribulations of the his toric Maid of Orleans. It will be given by Mma Bernhardt on Monday evening. March 10th, at the Capital theater, in Little Rock.
 Nothing more wonderful. perhaps, exists in history than the torture, both mental and physical to which the Maid of Orleans was subjected by her captors. M. Moreau by ad- herring closely to historical facts has beem able to compile tragedy from this trial, of not only great power but of great beauty. It is Madame Bernhardt's latest triumph and was produced by Mime Bernhardt in Paris. Dec. 1909. AS she stands before her judges. determined on her destruction, we are waited back through ages and fool that we, ourselves, are in the presence of the historic maid, So noble and courageous is her bear- ing so almost superhuman the saga city of her answers to her willy judg- es, so profound is her expression as she listens for the divine voices, end ing in the majesty of her justifia- ble anger, that we sit enthralled, suffering all the tortures, both men, tai and physical, to which she is sub- jected.
