FATAL SHOOTING.

On Wednesday night last, during the
pei formance of Coles Circus in Bayou
Sara, n difficulty occurred out side the
canvass, between u colored man named
Wesley Glover, and two white lads, NAM
cd respectively, Frank Vresinsky, and
Leopold Reeche, in which Glover received
q pistol shot wound in the head which
caused almost instant death. 1t appears
from the combined statements of the
witnesses, as elected before the Coroner's
Jury, that the difficulty originated near
the circus tent, but that the killing took
place in the street, some hundred feet or
more from the locality where the quarrel
began.
Young Vrcsinsky and Rceche wele inn
meliately arrested and turned over to
! Sheriff Barrow, and were promptly con-
fined in the parish Jail.
Coroner Ball summoned jury Of in
! quest who investigated the matter on
Thursday morning. The jury was COM
posed as follows: J. S. Wooster, r. H..
Halle, Jr., Robert Phillips, Henry An
derson [c] Nelson Stephens [c], who af-
ter a thorough examination of the wit
ncsses found n verdict as follows: 'We
the jurors find that tho deceased came to
his death from a bulletthro"gh the head,
from Il pistol discharged by the hand of
Frank Vrcsinsl>y, now in custody
Upon this finding, young Reeche was
discharged from custody, and Vresinsky
| is held to answer the awful charge.
Tho oyl,;1>;to1 1,oTnrn thn
of Inquest as the one supposed to have
been used in tho bloody tragedy, is a di-
minutive cartridge derrnger, carrying
cartridge of the smallest size made, cali
bre y. and looks like toy, rather than
an instrument of death.
The young boy VresinsEy who is charg-
| ed with the commission of this awful
crime is quite a youth, not being, it is
said, over IA years of age.
| A knife, which may be properly de-
scribcd as n small sized kitchen knife,
was discovered lying near the body of
the deceased when removed, and is sup
posed to have belonged to him.
AS the charge against young Vresinsky
will be investigated before the proper
tribunal, when all the facts connected
Herewith will be elected, we refrain
from making any comment, save to point
to the awful commentary afforded by
this sad occurrence, upon the prevailing
custom Of permitting the carrying of
concealed weapons, III violation of the
law, and more particularly by children.
! And here we will take occasion to di-
rect particular attention to the timely
notice, to DC found in another column,
OF Mr.. Chas. Spencer, Constable of Bayou
Sara, in relation to this very matter of
carrying concealed weapons.

IMPROVE THE LIVE STocK OF THE FARM
Even on a well managed farm there is gem
orally room for improvement in the live
stock Horses are sometimes kept until they
are old and weak, and unable to perform the
necessary labor and unfit for sale. Cows are
sometimes kept until they are entirely unfit
for the dairy or for breeding, but they con-
sumo as much provender as those which are
in their prime and able to yield large sup
ply of milk and strong, healthy calves. A
great Improvement might be made in a flock
of sheep by culling out from it, at least once
a year, all the ewes that produce light tieeces
or an inferior staple of wool and supplying
their places with others of superior quality
in every way. A great improvement may
be made in swine by getting rid of unthrifty
animals and introducing the best breeds
which possess the desirable properties OF fat
tening readily, coming to maturity at an
early age and paying well for the food they
eat.

SANFORD'S
RADICAL C U RE
For CATARRH
IS UNIVERSALLY RECOMMENDED

We have Just received a communication
from nearly every druggist in New England
and the West, and the testimony is universally
in favor of SkNFoRD's RADICAL CURE FOR Ca
so popular wherever known, and certainly we
feel that never was one more deserving OF
praise. Founded upon correct scientific prin-
ciples, and calculated by the most accom-
plished physicians to meet the severest forms
OF Catarrh, the cures made Dy IL nave not only
been numerous, but so remarkable as TO excite
public attention, and cause the sale to exceed
tenfold that of any similar remedy ever before
While many are anxious to make public
their testimony in favor of the RADICAL
CURE, others-and among this number may
be found many Of our most respected citizens
dis ike TO become publicly identified with so
lOathsome a disease. Hence, In the following
TO refer 20 VINO ca upon us
personally TO him, and TO state the severity
and condition of the case before and after
using the RADICAL CURE, and. also, that the
gentleman occupies a responsible Office in one
of our State institutions. We quote:
Il would not for the world permit my name
be of benefit 10 many now suffering as have
suffered: but give you brief statement OF
my case: ~.
"Fsr two wears L have taken bromide
of pofassa and bromide of smmo nia ey-
cry day. never passed single night
without getting up once or twice 10 Tree
dropped into IL during sleep, and FIN Ally
4 cOughed during all this time. since
taking the RADICAL CURE have taken
no p0tassa or ammonia, nave slept
sounaiy every night W thout uneasiness
or distress; not a. particle Of matter has
dropped into my throat during sleep,
and every symptom OF cough has left
me.'
A wonderful result truly, all will say, who
know or can realize the extent and severity Oh
this case. The gentleman has had eighteen
bottles. This must satisfy the sceptical that
there is great merit in the RADICAL CUsE. Its
mode of preparation Is new and original. lg
noring the old practices and remedies Dr.
strated his method to be the only proper and
never falling treatment.
The following recommendations are from
