OUT AGE.

Mr.. G. az .,sol,, tlis wel1 known sher-
III Of s.. landry parish, y DO i generally
Icn,cedHl 90 l,e the must eflicispt Sheriff
in the State, was Subjected to nilpro-
yoked arrest md imprisonment By police
officers III New Orleans last Saturday
night. Mr.. Dason aud his brother were
standing on the sidewalk talking with y
party Of friends when they were roughly
acccsted by d policeman aud ordered to
move on. The order was obeyed and the
party were separating when three police
officers arbitrarily and IN III unneces-
sarily siuleRt manner arrested Mr..
DnsO,,'s brother and also took the SheE-
iff himself into custody when lio profess
ted against their action. The indignity
was submitted to BY Mr.. Duson in order
that q disturbance might be avoided,
aud it was creditable to him as MI OIL
Ger aud d Inv abiding citizen that he
deprecated resistance, for there il no
doubt that the policemen would have
been roughly handled by bis indignant
friends il the Sheriff had permitted them
to follow their inclination. Soon after
being locked up, the gentlemen were re-
leased OH parole, and when thescase was
brought before Recorder Sambola Mon
day morning be ordered its dismissal
after hearing only the statements of the
officers naking the arrest. Sheriff Duson
had revolver gu his person ut the time
Of the arrest, which he voluntarily pro-
duced and handed to the property clerk
ut the station, hence he was sent before
tue Criminal Court for carrying con-
cealed weapons. This accusation WIS
also promptly dismissed, it being shown
that the Sheriff was on the lookout for
an escaped murderer who was supposed
to be in the city and whom he was liable
to meet at any moment.
This indefensible outrage demonstrates
Whit kind OF men are able to obtain en-
ployment as custodians of the peace III
the qneen city Of the South. Either too
ignorant to comprehend the proper dn-
ties Of their position or too reckless and
dcprayed to care u fig for the rights Of
decent and inoffeasiye citizens, they
represent only one Of the many abuses
that curse the metropolis under the
domination Of the hoodlum ring that
rules the city with an iron hand.

An Interesting Case.

The house of Mrs. Hepsabeth @. Shaw hay
ing been damaged by fire, the New York Equit-
able Insurance Company, which insured it,
chose to rebuild and restore it to its previous
good condition rather than pay outright in
money the losses caused by the fire. After the
building had been repaired and handed over to
Mrs. Shaw she objected to it as not being as
good as it had been. The insurance company
refused to do more than it had done, SO she
sued it for damages. In her complaint she as
serted that green timbers had been put Into
the house, and that, generally, in construction
and ornamentation it was inferior to the build
ing as it stood before the fire occurred She al
so claimed damages because the work OF re-
building had been unressonably delayed The
trial of the case occupied three weeks before
Judge Van Worst and jury in the Supreme
Court Circuit. In the course of the trial Judge
Van Worst ruled that the insurance company
was bound, after it had chosen to rebuild, to
make the new house as good in every way as
the old one, although not to make it necessari.
ly fac simile of the old one. and that it could
not limit the cost of the repairs to the amount
of the insurance, but must expend whatever
sum was necessary to make the building per-
feet. The jury gave Mrs. Shaw a verdict for
81 621 damages.-N. Y Times.

the frankest of our ad versaries. Not from him

his pious mother have smoothed the last mo-
ments of her sons agitated life!'
II oute by CASTELAR,.

patriotic fortitude and sacrifice to the cause of
modern progress. Innumerable kilograms be-
side that of Senior CASTELAR, were sent by Liber-
al statesmen. The principle papers here pub
