BATON ROUGE AS A TRADING PoIyYI
WAT TYLER CLUVERIUS,
Druggist and Pharmacists Successor to H. r B06ez

This accomplished Pharmacist was
born in the "OM Dominion and came
to New Orleans in 1859, wheiihe entered
the Drug-House of E. j. Hart & Co.,
remaining with that well-known firm
until 1861. The blood that coursed in
his veins was much stronger than water,
as he soon proved by taking up one of
the muskets that Company A, Louisiana
Guards, Of Dreux's crack battalion car
ried to the fields Of his native State. He
became the first sergeant Of the comoa-
ny, and we remember well his solJierly
appearance while serving on the York
town Peninsula. When his battalion
was disbanded, at the end of it's term Of
service, Mr.. G.. loved the Sunny South too
well to consider that his duty had ter
minated. With Captain Fenher he Or
gained, mainly from an,ongn,tle men,
bers Of tho Dreux Battalion,,that famous
Battery Of which he was made the Rrst
lieutenant. Throughout the Tennessee.
and Georgia campaigns tho, guns that
he commanded poured their deadly mis-
siles into the serried ranks o. the inya-
de~. In -l fact, the hoarse notes, Of Fen
ner's Napo}eons fnrnisllait the q music
around Port Hudson and through. sew
eral of the Southwestern Statusi by
whose accents the "Blue Goats" did
anything else than keep time. Where
ever the Battery went, there could DO
found its gallant first lieutenant, as
popular with all those who knew him
as he was handsome and dashing as a
soldier. The members of the Fourth
Louisiana Infantry, and Of Scott's Cav
airy remember him well. Always the
same gay and devil-may-care trooper,
laughing at the hardships, and ut the
enemy's bullets too, till the time came
to fold the flag that SO many brave
southemers had given up their lives to
uphold. At this time Lieutenant Gu
vcrins was the commanding officer Of
that splendid Battery; Captain Fenner
having succeeded to the command of
Battalion of Artillery. No wonder,
then, that wherever Captain Cluverius
goes anywhere in Louisiana, he finds
hosts of friends and comrades to wei
come and wish him all the success his
meritorious services entitle him to re-
ceive.
In April, 1878, he purchased the es-

NICHOLAS WAX,
Dealer In Groceries, Western Produce and Pza,,to,-
ton Supplies.

This well known merchant has been
doing business "down town, near the
Court House since the year 1854. He is
therefore no stranger in Baton Rouge ;
and to buy groceries at Nick Wax's comes
as easy as to roll off a log. One of the
reasons for this is that one is snre to find
at his we'll kept and extensive new Two
Story Brick Store and Warehouse, as
complete stock of Western Produce,
Family and Staple Groceries, CANNED
Goods, Preserves of all kinds, Tobacco,
Cigars, Crockery, Glassware and Planta-
ton Supplies generally, as can be found
anywhere this side of New Orleans. Mr..
Wax is q licensed Wholesale and retail
Liquor Dealer, and keeps on hand a full
line of WHISTLES, Brandies and Wines of
all brands and prices. -
AS far as Lager Beer is concerned, he
is the "King Bee" in that part of our
city with regard to this article, an indis-
pensable one in families who don't use
much milk. As the agent of Blatz' cele-
bratcd Milwaukee Beer, he keeps Il large
stock of this popular beverage in casks,
barrels, kegs and bottles, which he sells
atthe very lowest market rates, in guam
titles to suit the wishes of his many Gus
toners.
No wonder then, that supplied as he
is always, the spcople from the country
come to Mr. Wax's store to do their trad
ing, initiating in this the inhabitants of
Baton Rouge, who have long since found
ont that they can't do any better at any
other place. No matter when you go to
this store you are sure to find people do
ing business there. You can't go to any
other place wherea customer is received
in more accommodating and pleasant
way than at Wax's. Besides the cold

motto at Pipers. The extensive two

and those wishing bargains would dc
well to call.
THE UNDERTAKINGS DEPARTMENT.
Is also an important branch of the bust
ness conducted at pipers, and every
thing in that line can be obtained at the
most moderate prices. Special atten-
ton is given to this branch under the
close supervision of Mr.. Piper, who sees
that thorough satisfaction is given to
those who give this reliable House the
preference.
If there is in our city House that de-
serves to be patronized it is Pipers.
Everything is done as it ought to be,
and every effort is made to do Justice
in every manner to those who deal
there.
We cannot, too highly recommend to
the public this well conducted Furni-
turc and Undertaker's Depot, whose re-
putation for low charges for first class
goods has been established for over
Twenty-Five years.
This House is making extensive pre-
parations for large increase in it's bust
ness, in view of the return of the Capt.
tai to our city, and we would advise
purchasers to give Piper's call before
going elsewhere.

Establishment and became successor of the
Bogels, in our city. No less competent
az Pharmacist and active business man
than he was efficient in the tented field,
he has opened trade that is developing
with amazing rapidity. At no previous
time has this well known house been
conducted with more system than it has
since he is it's proprietor. 1t is not
because of his just claims for public
patronage that he invites our citizens to
deal with him, but simply for the reason
that he keeps first-class Drugstore
completely supplied with Drugs, Chemi-
Gals, Patent Medicines, Perfumery, Toilet
and Fancy articles, Liquors, Cigars,
Oils, Paints, cutlery, miscellaneous arti-
cles, and in fact everything that apper-
tains to such a line of business.
. These goods are always fresh and Of
first quality, as lie makes it point to
receive them from first hands. His OK
tensiye acquaintance. and..good relations
with manufacturers and dealers enable
him TO purchase at tile lowest market
prices, and rs q result to sell on the same
terms to his many customers. Polite
and clever to every one, he makes it
pleasure to deal with him. At the head
Of his Prescription Department. is that
experienced and courteous gentleman,
Mr.. Charles H. Jolly--so advantageous
ly known by all our citizens than
whom, none more competent and reli.
able as compounder of medicines can
be found. At all hours of the day ornight
a formula can be filled in the most care.
full manner possible. In the sales De-
partment Mr.. Henry Grice, most
affable and accommodating young gen.
tleman is also to be found, ready at all
times to 90 his level best to attend to
customers, according to the style
maugurated by Capt. Cluverius, who is
"tllere" in person to take hand to
make sure that everything is we'll done.
We might go on and add other re-
marks Of richly deserved praises, were it
not that it would be losing time, AS every
one who has anything to do with this
trustworthy, establishment is ready to
endorse everything that we have said or
might say of it.
We therefore conclude by inviting
everybody to give Capt. Cluycrius

gentleman himself, who is on hand at
all times to receive you, his son Mr.. An
thony Wax, "rony" az his friends call
him, and Mr.. Frank Phillips, two as
clever young traders as can be seen be-
hind any counter are on hand to supply
the wants of every one who calls at this
popular store. =
Mr.. Wax is one of our most success
full merchants for the good reason that
he gives entire satisfaction to his Gus
toners. He knows how and where to
buy at closest figures, and keeps nothing
but the very best of articles, which he
receives in large quantities from up and
down the river. In selling, he is de-
tcrmined not to be out done, as far as
low prices are concerned. He hasample
means to conduct his extensive whole
sale and retail business, and does not
allow his competitors to beat him in the
race.
His liberalfy is proverbial, and when
one has once dealt with him it's hard
job to induce that person to 60 else
where. Among those citizens who have
at heart the general prosperity of the
community, Mr.. Wax is ranked. He is
never behind hand in any movement
that looks that way. A good citizen,
he deserves all the patronage that he re-
ceives from our public. Such men are
useful to our city, and we are always
glad to see them succeed, because they
in time are enabled to do good to their
fellow men.
Mr.. Wax is preparing for the fall
trade and expects to keep larger stock
this season than ever before. We can
therefore without hesitation recommend
his establishment to all those who seek
a first class place to do their trading.

A Stiff Back Democrat,

On last Tuesday morning friend OF
ours called to see us. After the incidents
connected with Mondays hurricane had
been thoroughly discussed, the CONVEX
sation turned upon matters political.
Onr friend here gave us an expose of his
views. Speaking of men who complain
about "rings," packed conventions,
wiro-working, etc, he said in substance :
'T'm regular ,dyed-in-the- wool Demo-
crat; whenever the paste-board is put
up that bears the names of those candi-
dates who compose the Democratic
ticket, don't ask any further q uestions
| so to the polls on election day and
vote it. don't care, how the ticket
has been made up, whether is been
done in a backiroom caucus, or in any
Other way it's all right so the ticket is
callep Democratic ticket" am ready
to tai te up for any man on it and assert
that he is an A. l. splendid fellow, else
he wouldn't be there.
"Gyve me-" he added, "that class of
Democrats, who when you rub them on
the bock have their hair sticking out,
untilNo rub them down again. Those
men J know where to find all the time.
1t dofst make the wind switch around
because particular church stands in it's
way, ithe storm sweeps whatever is
across its path. For that reason ! don't
hunt hround and move my church
about TO look for the best place to locate
it BALD it in an eligible spot and
stick Il it, just as long as the angry ele-
ments have not sweptit ont of existence.
Pm that way about the Democratic
party; its principles suit me and I al
ways stand beside them"
These, views of our friend were so
and loyal that we could
not but Se deeply impressed with their
force, aFd concluded that we were 'that

TIE KANSAS THIEF.
MILES WALKERS ARREST AND ESCAPE.


Sheriff Bates left here on the 25th ult.,
with warrant for the arrest of the above
named individual. After he had obtain
ed requisition from Acting Governor
Witt he proceeded to Hickman, KY,
where he found the party had been ar
rested on his telegram by detective Jas.
A. Warner. The latter officer boarded
the steamer Halliday at Hickman, and
hauled thercfrmn the too enterprising
Miles, who had taken charge, without
permission, of q wagon and mules, be-
longing to Scott McVea and others, with
which ''truck" he was proceeding to the
happy land of Canaan--Kansas. Upon
the arrival of Sheriff Bates at Hickman.
he found that a. writ of habeas corpus
had been issued for the release of the
prisoner, and one of the mules turned
over to Lawyer Randall of that place.
After an interview with Mr.. r., during
which Sheriff Bates exhibited evidences
Of his authority, the attorney abandoned
further pursuit, and our enterprising
Sheriff took charge Of the prisoner and
the stolen property.
Arrangements were made by him for
the shipment of the property to it's own
ers at Port Hickey.
On last Sunday morning Mr.. Bates
took the cars, having the prisoner in
charge. When he had reached a point
between Osyka and Chatawa stations,
while he had moved from his seat to the
front Of the car, leaving the prisoner on
the sixth seat from the rear door, as he
turned back, found that he had dis
appeared.
He made the facts known to Conductor
Fitzpatrick, who had the train, which
was running at the rate of twenty-thnee
miles all hour, stopped as soon as posi-
bic. Miles had jumped off from the
platform, and Sheriff Bates ran back
down the road, and found the spot where
the prisoner had landed down slide of
fifteen feet in height.
MIR. Bates traced the prisoner to a
small skirt of woods, and from thence to
the Tangipahoa swamp. Finding that
q heavy rain storm was approaching,
and as the swamp was all extensive ore,
he gave up further pursuit and made his
way to Osyka, where he procured the
assistance Of four young men well &C.
quainted with the country. The search
was kept up until late in the night. AZ
ter every effort had been made to find
the prisoner, Mr.. Bates concluded to
return home, after giving all necessary
instructions and offering suitable TO
ward for the capture of Miles.
Sheriff Bates is Of the opinion that
Miles was severely injured, as he was
when he jumped from the
train, which was at full speed-not suf-
ficiently, however, to prevent him from
hiding in the dense swamp adjoining.
