A GOOD CAPTURE.
Joke ON an Ex.Detectiye.

Special Officers George l.. Cain and Dave Hen
Messy have had in their possession since the Is
inst warrant forthe arrest of one Leon:Riviere
who was charged by Mr.. Rene Bobin, of the par.
ish OF Lafayette, with the embezzlement Of
1927 so.
The officers had searched in vain for theil
game, but he had eluded their vigilance up to
Friday, when the merest accident led to his
arrest and detection. Ex-Special Jules Dumas
was paying q visit to the Central Station. and
being in one of his communicative moods mot
uncommon for him), he took note from his
pocket, and showing it to Officer Cain, said:
Read that; 1 have an appointment at II
O'Clock with Spanish gentleman who has lust
arrived from Cuba
Officer Cain took the note, and the moment his
eyes fell upon it he discovered the signature to
be that of the very man-Reviere-for whom he
had been looking.
He read the note over, which was an appoint
ment OF Riviere's to meet Dumas at 70 O'Clock, on
the corner of Orleans and Bourbon streets. Off
Ger Cain said not word, but determined to take
advantage of the note.
Accordingly he hurried near by the appointed
place of meeting, and placed lookout near by,
telling him if Dumas spoke to any one. to
give signal. few moments after Riviere
hove in sight, grasped Dumass hand.
The signal was given. Cain and Hennessey
came out and secured their prisoner, much to
the surprise OF Dumas, upon whom the unfortu. |
nate Rlyiere heaped maledictions, thinking that |
Dumas, in the guise Of friendship, had given |
him up in the hands of justice.
Dumas walked away and this time didn't say |
much.
Rviere was taken to the Central Station, where
> pair OF diamond earrings were found upon his |
person. He was taken before Judge Evans veg
Eerday, pleaded not guilty aud was remanded
under $500 for appearance.
This is the same young man who, in January
asst, absconded with money belonging to his en-
oloyers, Messrs Queyrouze & Bois

. not used for proper and necessary pur-
poses, we nevertheless disapprove Of all meas

Such would have been the operation of
TIE "act to relieve taxpayers" etc., which is
vetoed. Any act or ordinance which has that
aendency is bad in its effects, which are par

healthy tone until q system shall be adopted
by which the prompt payment of taxes shall
be duly rewarded, and proper and adequate
penalties are assessed upon the dilatory.
The first requisite is, of course, that taxes
should be no more than what are strictly
necessary; the second, that they should be
ased Tor the public good; but the next is, that
shey should be all paid and without delay.
neither Legislators nor city administrators can
KNOW what taxes to levy unless they can know
that they will be paid.

1t is sentiment whose well-springs are so
hard by the fountains of the crystal river of

its fullest expansion may hope to be vouch-
safed an appearance of the vision which
blessed Abou Ben Adhem.
" Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase)
Awoke one night from dream Of peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his room,
Making it rich and like lily in bloom,
An angel writing in q book Of gold:
Exceeding peace had made Fen Adhem bold,
And to the presence in the room he said,
what writest thou? the vision raised its head,
And, with u look made of all sweet accord,
Answered-sThe names of those who love the
Lord.
Replied The angel. Abou spoke more low,
But CHEEKY still and said: Il pray thee, then,
Write me as one that loves his fellow men,
The angel wrote, and vanished. The next
night
It came again, with great Weakening light,
and showed the names whom love of God had |
blessed
And 10! Ben Adhem's name led all the rest"

cheek of those who have known sorrow
There are probably more Of these an
substantial pretenders, who possess
gratitude, than any o'her virtue.
We are extremely grateful to tie man
who has served Us, but the feeling never
manitests itself in acts Such gratitude
is not worth the expenditure of the bad
breath exha!ed in expressing it. The
virtues are kiudred-lpve aud reverence
are indweliing occupants of the grateluI
heart, and are known Of men by their
works. True men manifest these virtues
even when the subjects Of them are re-
moved beyond our earthly sphere, TO that
bourne whence no traveller returns."
These thoughts were suggested in looks

surprisingly beautiful monument grazing
the public square in Bolivar, ana erected
to 1.-THE Confederate dead Of Hardenan

upon then selves in honoring the deal

4 great many drummers are passing
through the cities and towns upon our
Railroads soliciting business in every
line, for the houses By whom they are
employed, And although the outlook for
business is hetter in the South than fer
years, many fail to get orders because of
a want Of knowledge of the firms who
send them out The error that has been
committed is in not advertising before
their agents are sent out Familiarize
our merchants with the name and busI>
ness and claims Of those who are seek
ing to extend their business by keeping
an advertisement before their eyes, and
many a bill would be made that is
now lost for want of knowledge of the
business houses Of those represented By
the drummers. It is said thas A. T.
Stewart Of New York, adver issl 70 ths
amount of $4,000 in the last twelve
months, and lie bread cast upon the
waters, returned after many days

newspapers is the plan TO extend very
large business, a the newspaper reaches
all If agents are to be sent out, what
the newspapers have not accomplished
woulI be rendered more certain when
the agent comes round.
