OUR NEIGHBOR CITY.

SOME NOTES ABOUT AND COMPLAINTS
AGAINST THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.
CITY OF New CASTLE, Oct. "a, 1S75.-
When the Trustees gave notice to the citi-
zcns that they could no longer support the
schools, you may be sure there was no little
excitement, and some hard things were said
OF that body, for then, for the first time in
twenty-five years, the question of school
tax stared the people in the face. Some
were for going back under the District sys-
TEN. Some for having School Bill passed
similar to other towns, and some again for
doing nothing at all in the premises, but let
the people get their children educated as
best they could at private schools. In all
this confusion it was decided to call a pub
lie meeting to decide what should be done.
A meeting was accordingly called, when
two committees were appointed, one to
draft City Charter, and the other School
Bill, suited to the needs of the town. These
committees, at a subseqent meeting called
BY them, submitted, the one Charter, and
the other School Bill, which were referred
to the people for their acceptance or rejec-
tion, to be determined by an election, to be
held on two different days, one for the Char {,
ter, the other for the School Bill. These
elections were held, and resulted in the ac-
ceptance of both-tle Charter by a fair ma
jority, the School Bill by an overwhelming
majority. To accept these bills required no
little courage on the part of the people, for
they increased the taxes at one stroke from
81 900 to 1000 per annum, but It was neck
or nothing, and they were adopted.
At the meeting called to receive
the reports of the two committees,
the question was raised as to whether the
School Bill should name the first Board of
Education or provide for an election for
that purpose. 1t was decided the Bill should
name them, and that the Board should con-
sist of six members, five of whom should be
the original committee, and that they
should name the sixth. This action by the
people was, however, utterly disregarded
by the committee and instead ofselecting one
other gentleman they selected four, thus
making tho Board nine instead of six, as
the people had instructed. This caused
much dissatisfaction, but as it did not be-
come known until after the bill had passed
it was too late to remedy it, but the general
feeling is to have it amended by the next
Legislature reducing the number. The
Board, after the passage of the bill, organ
lied and set about starting the schools
again, which they succeeded in doing the
first of June. The bill gave them the power
to ask of Council four thousand dollars for
school purposes. This they did not do, but
asked for three thousand only, an amount
totally inadequate to the needs, and the
probability now is that the schools will
be closed on or about the first of March
next for want Of funds, as twill cost, am
told, over four thousand dollars to run
them the whole year. More of the schools
in future letter. MORE ANON.

Green Hndspeth, who died at his resi-
dence on Bayou Boeuf, on the fifteenth in
slant, at the ripe old age of eighty-tive years
and eleven months, was the last of a class
of men who, for nearly half century,

affairs Of our parish. MIR. Hudspeth was
born in Georgia. in March, 1879. In 1893
his father and family elnigrated to Ken

when he removed to Southern Tennessee
In the latter part of 1911 he lett Tennes-

acquired handsome competency. There
for more than generation preceding the
war he dispensed generous and unOsten-
tations hospitality. 1t mattered not whether
it was a friend, acquaintance or a passing
traveller who sous bit his hospitable mansion,
he was sure to be met with hearty vel
come. For many years Mr.. Hudspeth was
an active participant in the politics Of our
rarish. He was Wing of the straightest
and most unconpromising stamp After
the dissolution of his party he refused to
join any OF the other political organizations
which succeeded it, and in 1872, when he
east his last vote, he caused the words
Democratic Conservative" to be erased
and the word ''Whig" to be written in their
stead. He represented st. Landry in the
constitutional convention of 1915. and
subsequently in the Legislature, besides
holding other offices of minor Importance.
He survived all the contemporaries of his |
early manhood, and was the last connect |

We are still suffering from wretched

streets are in a horrible condition They

Benedict NV (Lambertini), and make us
VISA Rome had as capable q ruler as he was.
HIS celebrated Pope was very angry once
at the negligence OF the prelate Who had
the superin tendence of streets and roads.
Benedict NV thought of II clever way to
punish him. One day the Pope heard that
this cardinal had to pass through one
OF the dirtiest and narrOwest streets
OF Rome on his way to some t0n-ioue
or service There the Pope also went.
and arrived just at the same time with his
eminence. The custom at that time was
for prelates, as well as fer the laity not in
the pontitical suite, to leave their carriages
and kneel to receive the Pope's blessing as
he drove by. His holiness ordered his
coachman to draw up and stop. The cardi-
nal was obliged to get out of his grand
carriage and kneel down in the mud a foot
deep. The Pope pretended not to see him:
TO he occupied about other things.
and thus kept his eminence nearly halt an |
hour kneeling in the dirt; then the Pope |
gave INN benediction and allowed him 10 |
go his way. The poor cardinal got into his |
elegant carriage dripping with the nasty,
filthy mud which his own negligence had |
allowed to collect on the thorOughfare and |
to his palace deeply Inundated
