We call attention to the advertise
n,ent of horse, saddle and bride, left
bv its owner for thirty six hours tied to
a rack in our town, without feed or
water, and whom our kind-hearted
constable has taken charge OF. We
suspect the horse was stolen by some
one to ride to town to see the circus.
The w A. r. Brass Band. recently
organized by Prof. Eckart, seems to
be making rapid progress. Not long
since there was no brass band at Ope-
lousas now there is two, one colored
and one white, both Of which perform
well for the short time they have been
instructed.

like VT. Bayard, for example. are, and [
have agreed and still agree with them.
But as for the political factor, the party,
it seems to NE to have been for many
years afraid to be found in possession of
any principles lest they might prevent it
from successfully counting the varying
breezes popular feeling and thus preiu-
dice il with the people as suitor for office.
A political party has no right to ask to be
entrusted with power without frankly
telling the people what it proposes to do
with that power, and honestly proceeding
to do it, if the people approve and entrust
II with government. Courage and honesty
are after all the most potent and success
tui forces in politics.
Tine Republican party (perhaps as
much by accident as design, but that does
not matter) has, in my judgement posses

4 POOR FAMILY'S LUCK.
Suddenly Falling Heirs to a Million
and Half,
Philadelphia Record.

On truck patch at Sixteenth and
Dickinson streets lives a family
named Glen. They are in rather
poor circumstances. The husband
works the truck farm and sustains a
family consisting of wife and four
children. Recently the wife was
notified that her father had died in
Melbourne, Australia, leaving ST.
100000 to her. The story told by
the Glen family is this:
Somewhere about thirty years ago
James Boyle, his wife, and two child,
rem were living upon farm in
Laghtnagallagh, county Donegal.
Ireland. Years of hard toll and
struggling with the impoverished soil
had failed to place the farmer in q
comfortable position, and finally,
when his lease expired. he determined
to seek his fortune elsewhere.
A home was found for the child
ren-the girl Mary, who was then but
babe, being placed with her grand~
parents-and Boyle and his wife took
passage for Victoria, Australia On
arriving at the colony be obtained
employment, and by care and indus
try saved enough in few years to
buy farm. Prosperity continued
to attend him, and eventually he be-
came one of the most extensive
farmers in the district.
Meal while the baby daughter
whom he had left behind was growing
to years of womanhood. From time
to time the mail brought words Of
cheer from her parents, but the well
come missives ceased after 1870, the
last one stating that Der mother, and
a sister who was born In the colony,
had died, and that her father had
given up farming, and was investing
heavily in sold mines near Ballarst.
In 1871 Miss May married Glen,
and immediately afterward the cou-
EIple embarked for this country. They
are now living with their children on
truck farm, in three-story brick
house at Sixteenth and Dickinson
streets.
For nine long years Mrs. Glen had
mourned her father as dead. Often,
almost hoping against hope, she
wrote to his far-distant home, but
none of the letters elected response.
A few months ago, however, q letter
with the Irish postmark reached the
house, This proved to be from an
uncle, and contained the information
that her father was dead, leaving an
estate of about 9285, 900, nearly 81
100000; that her only brother had
also died in 1874, and that therefore
she (Mrs. Glen) was the sole surviv-
ing legatee to her fathers wealth.
The information seemed almost in
credible to the Glens, who could not
realize the possibility of being raised
from their present humble position
to one of luxury and affiuence. Let
ters were SEN to the Australian law,
yers, the good news was confirmed,
and, within the last week, Mrs. Glen
has received a letter from solicitors
in Melbourne, asking for certificate
of birth. This must be obtained from
Ireland, and the whole charge of the
matter has been placed in the hands
+ layer John Austin Purcell, who
viii take necessary steps by which
the family can come into possession
of the enormous fortune.

Poultry N otes.

Don't breed too many fowls upon one
place, and never attempt to keep q
dozan varieties within the space that
should be properly devoted to only
one kind.
Corn will answer very well for
marketing purposes, provided we
begin thus to feed the birds at the
right time But corn feeding to lay
ing hens, as an exclusive diet is Of no
account whstever. Change their feed
often.
Two hundred and more fowls fo-
gether under one roof at might, no
matter how separated as to tue fiocks,
could not prosper long at best. Tie
exhibitions from the bodies of SO
many birds together would be highly
pernicious to their bealeh
Hens have often habitof biting and
pulling ct their feathers, and greedily
eating them until their bodies are
bare. Tnis practice IS probably oc-
casioned by s. want Of salt, as when

no attempt to continue it.
