To-day Me Execution Day-Partin0
Interviews = Hls Preparations to
Meet hls Doom.

To-day is the timo designated by the
law for the execution Of Tiburcio Vas
quez, the famous bandit. al San jose.
California. and also Of William Dona.
at Modesto. in that State. for murder.
In all probability both executions will
have taken place before these lines
meet the public eye, and two more
struggling victims have been sacrificed
upon tho altar Of Justice. The eIecu
ton Of yasquez being the most notable.
We extract tho following from a telegram
from San Jose, under date Of March
l7th-day before yesterday:
Sheriff Adams and his deputies state
that since the termination Of the trial,
and especially since the adverse decision
OF the Supreme Court, Vasquez has been
moro self-possessed and even cheerful
than at any time prior to tho trial. He
has acted M one from whom q weight OF
anxiety has boon removed, and who was
fully assured Of his doom and prepared
10 meet Il. lilo does not exhibit tho
slightest symptom Of weakness. A most
affecting interview took place in the
prison to-day between the condemned
and his favorite sister, Maria Antonio
Lara. in the presence Of Deputy Sheriff
Sellman. Her husband. Manuel Lara,
and two OF vasquez' nieces wore pres
ent. Mr.. Ssllman describes tho scene
an heartrending; all parties broke down
| with emotion and their conversation wns
intermingled with sobs aud cxclama-
tons OF grief and intense anguish.
Catholic priests have often called al the
Shcrifrs office lately to learn II vasquez
desired their ministrations, but he has
usually declined to see them. Yester-
day. however. no sent n telegram to
Father Sanchez. Mt Watsonvillo, to
which q reply was received to-day that
tho reverend Father was in Los An
gsles. Tho prisoner Is closely guard
ed by Sheriff Adams, the arrange
ments being such that an attempted es-
cape or rescue would DO utterly futile.
vasquez says that, as far as death Is
concerned. ho has no fear whatever, his
only regret at his approaching fate being
the shame and sorrow II would cause
his relatives. especially tho dear sister
referred 10, vho, no says, Inns always
been like q mother 10 him. He says
that sincc ben Darwin abandoned his
case everything has gone wrsng aud
luck has seemed to turn against him.

snouLD ExrREssA An OPINION.

A dsy or two since. Senator FREEING
huyssn, Of New Jersey. submitted u
resolution to the Senate. now In extra
session. approving the action o. the
President in Louisiana Affairs, and Cd
visiue continued recognition Of tns

they could not support 1t in It's

prOprioty or o1psdisney Of future as'ta-

Murder In De Soto Parish.

From the Mansfield Reporter we learn
that on Saturday night, week since, a
German by the name of John Smith waf
found dead on the sidewalk of Mansfield
street, with trace of pistol ball shot
through his head. After an inquest by q
coroner's jury, Mr.. l.. r. Simmons, Of
Shreveport, was arrested for the murder,
upon circumstantial evidence. Mr.. Sim
mons was placed in prison, but afterwara
twas taken ont and placed under guard,
composed of several citizens who volun-
teered their services" 1t appeared at the
investigation had before Parish Judge Suth-
erlin that Smith had become intoxicated
during the evening he was killed, and that
he had had a difficulty with Simmons. As
no one testified directly against the pris-
Oner, he was released on bond of $4,000,
and allowed to depart for his home. 1t is
probable that action closed the case. 1t
appears human life is held too cheaply in
De Soto. The Reporter says of the occur
renee:
1t matters little whether smi h was killed
maliciously or accidentally, this occurrence
is q disgrace to our community. The sheriff
has done his duty in this matter, but our
town authorities have, as yet, taken no
notice Of the affair, and our town charter
should be thrown up, or good marshal

Mr. John E. Owens having concluded q
tolerably successful week of old comedy
business at the Varieties Theatre, gives
way on Monday night for the first appear
ance at that theatre of the popular young
dialect comedian, Mr.. Joseph X. Emmett
1t has been three years since Mr.. Emmet
played in New Orleans, but there are
pleasant remembrances Of him yet as E-its,
our Cousin German. which character he
will assume. with others, in his protean
drama tomorrow night. The distinguish
ing characteristic Of Mr.. Emmett as an
actor is the extreme neatness with which
he acts, sings and dances through the play.
He has cultivated q refinement of manner
which wins friends for him. He is the
most successful actor that ever gradu-
ated from the minstrel stage. He has
had many imitators. Mr.. Murphy, now at
the St. Charles, is of the Same school and is
. good actor; but Murphy adapted the IRISH
line of business and the two are not rivals.
Emmett chose the broken English German
dialect. the speech OF Rip Tan Hinkle. and
with his Fritz made fortune. As drama
Fritz had its faults; after the speciality busi-
ness in it, the play seemed fiat; it did not
end strong enough. Mr.. Chaxles Gaylor,
his first manager, afterward wrote Kari for
him. That play also had it's good and bad
points. When Emmett took his pieces over
the water he was advised to have them re-
constructed. Mr.. Holiday, London gu
shor and actor, undertook the work. He
boiled the two plays down, and from the
essence of both made one good plece--re.
jeoting the bad and retaining the good-so
that the comedian now has play worthy
of the actor, and acceptable to an Intelligent
audience. He will play q good engagement
at the Varieties.
At the ST. Charles Thea ire Mr.. Joseph
Murphy will to night again play in "Maum
Cre," which has run through the past week.
Tomorrow evening he will change the bill
and appear in "Hslp," his frst great sue.
cess.
The Lingsrds continue at the Academy of
Music. They play tonight in the "New
MaRdalen," the authors version, and to-
morrow evening "Alixe" will be produced.
