CHEAP CIGARS.
Beb Touchstone Aesteta la SaWnc *
Stock of ©Mare Below Coat.
For some little time past Dr. An¬
thony has been missing cigars from
bis store in this dty. On Toreday
he missed a great many more, esti¬
mated to be about eleven hundred,
and the matter was at once placed
in the hands of Policeman Gossett;
Dr. Anthony stating that a negro
boy named Bob Touchstone who
was working about the store, was
suspected of getting the goods. Goe-
sett at once began hi* investigation*
whfch resulted in his searching U
store on Broadway kept by Tom
Bunt, and finding 4 boxes of cigars
in the store, and in Tom’s room
back of the store three more
boxes were found, all being special
brands sold by Hr. Anthony.
The officer also found a lamp and
two boxes o f toilet soap which were
indent!fled os having been taken
from the stock in the drag store. At
a negro resturant next to Hunt’s
run by Henry Alexandre more of the
same cigars were bought. Tom
claims that he bsuglit the cigars ex¬
cept one bsx, from Bob Touchstone
at fifty cents a box and had been
retai'ing them himself, also supply¬
ing Alexandre. Officer Gossett spent
the entire night, assisted during the
latter part by Chief Mann, in trying
to find the negro but without success.
Just about daylight he discovered a
party near Springer’s store who was
making tracks toward the Experi¬
mental Farm and after folio wing him
for some time ord ered him to stop,
which only quickened his speed and
by turning in towards the old fair
ground he escaped. Gossett felt
sure that he was the right party
though it was too dark to see plain¬
ly, so he came back to town an4»no-
tifled the conductor of the accom¬
modation to be on the look out for
the boy , who would probably board
the train up the road, also asking
that he be handed over to the au¬
thorities at some station on the
road.
At Sunny Side a boy answering to
tbe description of Bob got on and
proving to be the right one was
banded off at Jonesboro and the
police at this place were notified of
tbe arrest. Dr. Anthony got a State
warrant and officer Floyd was sent
after him on the morning train re¬
turning at 4 p. m. with the prisoner
who to now in jail awaiting commit¬
ment trial which will take place to¬
day before Justice Stflwell. The
value of the goods fonnd were about
fifty dollars, but it to supposed that
he has been stealing for a long time.
The cigars were being retailed at
about three or four for five cents.

ABILITY VS. DIGNITY.
Court* Which Need More of the <
and ton of the Other.
In a county some distance from
this, occurred a court scene not only
amusing but which illustrates
point well taken.” There to a cer¬
tain lawyer in this State noted for
his oddity and originality, and who,
when under the mellowing influence
of the “rosy too freely passed” grows
not only brilliant but eloquent. This
lawyer on a certain occasion, being
loaded with what to politely termed
“boose,” had a case in a County
Court. The attorney on the opposite
side produced a decision of the Su¬
preme Court, tbe indirect tendency
of which was to turn our “original”
friend out of court. But ever full of
resources and reedy with the keen
blade of bis wit and originality, our
bright lawyer addressed the Court
about aa follows: “May it please
your*Honor. I have heard that de¬
cision of the Supreme Court read be»
fore. It ain’t the law. The Snprem -
Court can not make law, The Legis¬
lature makes the law. Now sir, it to
ray opinion, that the Supreme Court
of this State basen’t had an original
idea hi twenty-five years. But if

than to follow the Supreme Court
why, you can do it and torn me out
of court. But I don’t see any reason,
because the Supreme Court has made
fools of themselves, why the Judge
of the County Court of-county
shoald make a fool of himself.” Here
the court exhibited signs of nervous¬
ness. The lawyer continued, “I know
a dozen Justices of the Peace in tbto
county who have too much sense to
follow any such a decision, but yonr
Honor can taks a different line
snd turn me out of court. This I
grant to oneot the high prerogatives
of this court.”
At this the Judge grew very in¬
dignant and remarked to the law¬
yer. “Sir, you shall not Yufleefc up¬
on this court and the majesty of the
law in this style. Hie dignity of
this court shall be respected and
maintained and the court will punish
you severely if you continue ysur
insulting remarks.” .
Whereupon onr bright witted
attorney, leaning upon a table to
steady the already shaking pillars to
his human anatomy. “I have been
thinking for some time that if this
court had less dignity and more
ability she might get. along .a good
deal better.”
Of course at this point the Judge
grew furious and but for the timely
interference of earnest pleading
friends the lawyer Would have landed
in jail, but the triumph of his wit
ameleorated the wrath erf the court’s
insulted dignity and the lawyer
free much to the delight of hto ad¬
miring hearers.
