The Young Man in the Pond.
A WRONG STORY CORRECTED, AND NOW
WE HAVE THE "O'ER TRUE TALE"

We were interviewed Saturday by the
young man whom the CAPITOLIAN rep
resented last week as having "pulled
up" at 2:32 pace, in the middle of a pond.
He didn't want to fight, but said that
our informant misrepresented tho facts
of the case. He said, LIST, He did not
drive into the pond rapidly as stated,
but slowly and steadily, to let the horse
drink, until he found the water was
running through the bottom of his
buggy. Then he "pulled up" and COM
manded halt. I'd, He did not get into
the water with his sunday-go-to-meet-
ings on, but calmly and coolly pulled
off his coat! then his vest then his pants
then Ills shoes and socks then his ---!
laying them all carefully down until he
stood as free and bare as q lone under
shirt could make him! After this, re-
Numbering that he was not exactly pre-
pared for the company Of ladies, he cast
his eye around. An old darkey only
was in sight. He hailed him, and to-
gether they got the horse separated from
the buggy. The horse SWAN out and
the buggy-they pulled it out of the
dangerous element. This is all "oer
true tale" and though the young man
says it is immaterial to him whether we
publish the straight side" or not, we
do so as matter Of justice to all parties
concerned!

We learn that at an early day there
will be an amateur entertainment given
in this city, at Pixies Hall, for the
benefit of the Confederate Memorial
Association. Several dramas will be
introduced, the principal characters of
which are to be rendered by young
ladies and gentlemen who, though ANA
teurs only, understand to perfection
their respective roles. During one of
the entertainments an original poem,
written by former lady resident of
this place, and dedicated to the COufed-
crate Memorial Association, will be rem
dered by young lady of Baton Rouge.
Every one applauds the objects and pur-

DEATH OF A MURDERER.
A MAN WHO COMMITTED A MURDER TEN
YEARS AGO FINALLY DIES
IN A RAIN STORM.
TLQke Charles Echo. I

Last Sunday evening a man called at
Mr.. Fairchild's house, in Calcasieu par
ish, and requested something to eat. On
his request being granted he walked
away about six hundred yards, and laid
down about two hundred yards from the
road. Mr.. Suites, who with his family
was camped near by, went to the man
and, as heavy rain was falling, begged
him to rise and go to house for shelter.
This was fully two hours before sunset.
The man replied that he was sick, but
would not go to house because he had
murdered q man. The next evening
parties went to him to minister to his
wants, and the next day a gentleman
from st. Landry parish happening to
pass by, looked at the stranger and in
stantly recognized him as being one AL
eek johnson, who murdered a man in
Alabama about ten years ago, and after
living some time with the wife of his
victim, murdered the woman by pouring
water down her throat until she was
suffocated, and then fled to Texas. The
sick man acknowledged his name and
identity to Mr.. Suites, but refused to be
taken to house, preferring to die where
he was. He died there the same evening
and was buried by the citizens.
HORSE THIEVES. 4
A few days before this occurrence some
horse thieves crossed the Sabine to the
Louisiana side, but were soon compelled
to move on by party of Texans from
Orange, Jasper and Newton counties,
aided by some of our citizens, the entire
posse numbering over one hundred men,
among whom were the sheriff of Orange
county and the former sheriff of Jasper
county. After running the thieves out
of the Sabine swamp the posse gave GER
tain families some good advice about
entertaining suspicious looking stran-
gers, and then returned home.

According to the statement of Messrs.
Greves and Wilson, a committee ap.
pointed by the School Board to make a
report Of the condition of the public
schools of this parish, check for over
eight hundred dollars has been received
as supplement to the March apportion-
ment, which will justify the board in
opening the country schools at an earlier
date than anticipated, The time for,the
opening Of these schools will be fixed by
the board at its next regular meeting.
Considerable complaint has been made
about the matter, and we hope all inter
ested will get a copy Of the committee's
report and make themselves acquainted
with the situation!

Last Saturday evening two darkies,
Cartright and Doyle, brothers-in-law
who had been on bad terms for some
time, had quite a serious difficulty.
After some words had passed between
them, Doyle broke down the fence divid-
ing their homes, and rushed upon Cart
right with an open knife, who by way
of self-defense, snatched up an Ak and
dealt his assailant quite a serious blow
on the head. Cartright surrendered
himself to the authorities, and at last
accounts Doyle was getting well.
