AS an elegant hair dressing stands
Parker's Hair Balsam, deservedly
popular for the beautiful hair it pro-
duces, and it's healthful, cleansing
and healing properties. Commencing
at the roots, it promotes luxuriant
growth of young hair, and unfailingly
restores gray or faded hair to its
original youthful color, giving a soft,
rich and lustrous appearance of great
beauty. 1t is pleasantly cooling to
the scalp, cleanses it from Dandruff,
cures itching and humors, and stops
falling of the hair. 1t is perfectly
harmless, exquisitely perfumed, never
soils the skin or gums the hair, and
pleases everybody by its many ex-
cellent aud attractive qualities. Buy
a bottle from your druggist, B. Ry-
biski, and test it's merits.

TOrtures that Need NOT be EN-
6mR.asf

People suffer a great deal of pain unneces-
sarily. Among fortunes that need not be en-
dured are those inflicted by the rheuma-
tism and govt, since the acrid element
in the blood which produces them
by contact with the sensitive covering of the
muscles and joints may be eliminated by
the use of that matchless depurent, Hostet-
ter's Stomach Bitters, before the inflamma-
tory symptoms are developed to any great
extent When it is considered what excru-
eiating fortunes rheumatism inflicts, and
what tendency it has, when fully devel-
oped, to attack the heart, the ACCESSIBILITY of
an early use of such reliable antidote be-
comes at once apparent. The rheumatic
virus is expelled from the blood by increased
action of the kdneys-which act as strain
ers-produced by the Bitters, and the suf.
ferer will find, if he uses this supreme de-
fensive ageEt, that he will be protected
against return of the agouizing complaint
Dyspepsia, fever and ague, liver and bowel
complaints and other maladies, are also
cured by this admirable remedy.

The resignation Of Parish Attorney
Dufel has been accepted by the Gov
ernor. Ex-Judge John A. Cheevers
is the only eligible member of the To-
cal bar who is free to accept the po-
sition, and it is naturally the general
expectation that he will be designated
as Mr.. Duffel's successor. Judge
Cheevers' four years. service as Dis
trict Attorney renders him more than
ordinarily qualified for the Parish At
torneyship.

An ARRAY occurred on Burnside's
Ascension place, first ward, on the
5th inst, between George Sandlin
and Charles Hill, which ended in the
latter receiving severe wound on
the head. The quarrel originated
while the men were at work in the
field. Hill complained that some one
was in the habit of stealing oil from
his lamp, and charged Sandlin with
the theft the latter gave his accuser
the lie, when Hill rushed up to Sand
lin, threw him down, and was
choking him and beating his face
when Raphael Foster separated the
combatants. Sandlin sprang to his
feet and selling the stubble-pick
with which he had been working,
struck Hill heavy blow on the head,
causing severe scalp wound. Dr..
Edward Duffel was called upon to
dress the wound, and gave certificate
to the effect that, while the hurt may
become dangerous by complications,
there is no immediate reason to APP
prehend that death will result from
it. Justice Butler examined the case
and committed accused to Jail.

Conference.-The petition of the under
signed retail liquor dealers, merchants and
residents of the town of DonaltlsonvilIe re-
spectfully beg leave to ask of your hon.
body the repeal of the Sunday liquor law
passed at the last regular meeting, held on
Monday, the LIST of April, for the following
reasons, to-wit:
l. Because the same benefits no one in this
community, either morally or socially.
:. Because it is an infringement upon the
rights of parties paying licenses to the Uni
ted States and the State of Louisiana, and
who should be entitled to all the privileges
guaranteed thereby; showing therefore its
unconstitutionality
3. Because the same is in conflict with the
charter of the town, which gives the Com
mon Council the right of regulating the sale
of alcoholic liquors within its limits.
4. Because the act Of the Legislature Civ
ing the right to the Police Juries of the
various parishes throughout the State
to regulate the sale of alcoholic liquors
on Sunday is partial and oppressive in .ex-
Guiding the city of New Orleans, and there
by depriving all Incorporated towns of the

BASE BALL.-The proposed match
between the Grasshopper and Burn
side mines fell through again last Sun
day, by reason of the absence of the
captain of the first named club, and
two or three others of the leading
members of the nine. A scrub game
was played, however, between mines
chosen for the occasion, and after an
interesting contest of nine innings,
the score sheet showed Is runs for
one side to Is for the other.
Tomorrow, weather permitting,
the Burnsides and Grasshoppers will
play the first game of their projected
Championship series. The Burnside
club now presents the strongest team
ever organized here, and they viii be
delighted to have opportunities of
crossing bats with clubs from New
Orleans or elsewhere that can visit
