Poor PICrURE.-One Of the illustrated
papers has picture representing New
Orleans street car about 10 run over small
child. A long-tailed monkey is rescuing
the child, dragging it out just in time to
prevent its being crushed. The picture is
about as incorrect as can well be, If really
intended for q New Orleans scenG9 Tie
car has the word Carrolton on it, and the
driver is a gigantic colored man, whose
mouth is greatly swelled by broad grin.
An angry mob is giving chase, and the mob
is about the ugliest-looking one ever define
ated. The car Is open n front. and the en-
tire cut is miserable mistake. If the
other pictures are as incorrect as this one.
and they probably are, then no reliance can
be placed on them. Fancy takes wonder
fui flights occasionally.
The inventor of the picture must have
had an intimation of General Beauregard's
untication movement. and simply gave the
car colored driver to anticipate what the
roads president intends to do when his

INQUEST IN THE CASE OF HENRY SER
GEANT.-On the last day e July Henry
Sergeant was temporarily engaged IN as
sisting to unload vessel at the head of
Adele street. The contract seems to have
been in the hands of John McGinnis. For
some reason Sergeant was told to drop his
truck and knock off working. Further than
this there does not seem to have been much
talk, but angry feelings existed. McGinnis
and Sergeant met at once, when McGinnis
struck him with large stick, .fracturing
his skull. Sergeant remained very low I'M
III Monday evening, when he died from the
effects of his wound. The testimony taken
by the coroner yesterday was such that the
jury returned a verdict that Sergeant's
death was caused by a blow delivered by
John McGinnis, and affidavit charging him
with murder has been made. Accused is in
PRISON. At the time of the occurrence the
demonstrations made by the laborers were
so great that it took a squad of policemen
20 hold them in check until McGinnis was
secured.
