Editor Lake Charles Echo;
" Musa, miht cauSas mensora." O,
Muse, suggest to me the cause Of
things In noticing the various
changes going on around us, and OBJ
serving closely the actions Of men,
and the motives by which they are
governed, the above quotation from
Virgil is brought wildly to my mind.
Campmeeting has come and gone,
and with it the good and the evil
which naturally follows in it's wake.
On the whole it may be set down as
a success. and the good accomplish
ed far outweighs, / think, all the
evil influences with which such coca
sions are surrounded. There was
some disturbance and noise outside
of the grounds, caused, as usual, by
too free use of whisky. But on the
grounds everything was quiet and
good order prevailed. The congre
cations were large and the good at
tention throughout the entire relig-
ious exercises was all that could be
desired, and the best ever witnessed
at this camp ground, rejecting great
credit upon this entire community. |
Mr.-, who kept the boarding
tent, is entitled to the thanks of all !
good citizens for the orderly manner
in which he conducted the same.
Several parties Of ladies and gentle
men from Lake Charles honored the
occasion with their presence. They |
carry with them the best wishes of
all, and it is hoped that at the next
meeting they, together with many
others such as they, may be with us.
The thanks of the church are due to
Mr.. Dempsey Hes, Mr.. Deer, Mr..
Richardson, Mr.. Hargrove and many
others Of the Baptist church, for the
aid they rendered, both pecuniarily /
and by their moral influence. Also
to DR.. Singleton, Mr., Jos. Moore,
Mr.. Perkins, and many other out
siders, for pecuniary aid and good
influence. And especially to Prof,
Baldwin, for his very liberal dona-
ton of $40 to the presiding elder.
When we take into consideration the
various elements combined and the
different motives which influenced
different parties to attend the meet
ing, the manner in which it was con
Quoted, the good order and attention
which prevailed and the way every
thing passed off, believe much good
has been accomplished 1t has de
monstrated the fact that camp
meeting can be held successfully
whether certain parties who have
heretofore assumed to dictate, say so
or not. There are in the church some
elements that are dead weight and
d drawback to her prosperity. The
worst element is generally the most
conspicuous. and when the world sees
deceit and dishonesty praoticed by
that element or party, they are too
ami 10 blame The whole church.

TheLast Sermon.

Rev. George r. Kramer, pastor of the
Household of Faith Church will preach
his farewell sermon tomorrow night
taking "Paul of Philetus," for the
subject. Mr.. Kramer has been in the
city some eight years, first as pastor Of
Asbury M. E. Church and afterwards
as the pioneer in organizing the House
hold of Faith Church, being the pastor
until the present time. ..
Though Mr.. Kramer was led to sever
himself from the M. L. Church, a
movement which alienated many of his
friends, nevertheless he has many left
as all pastors must who have been in
the city 30 long. He has besides orga.
nizing new congregation, built new
church and placed the denomination he
built up on an independent footing.
For several years past Mr.. Kramer
has been wanted at charge in Brook.
lyn, New York, but he has put them
off from year TO year for the purpose Of
remaining to strengthen the charge in
this city. Feeling that he can safely
leave 1t in other hands, he has at last
accepted the call and tomorrow even
ing he will take leave of people that
have become very near and dear to him
by constant association and constant
labor.

Tho Star Route Trials.

In the Criminal Court at Washing.
ton yesterday the xpected witness from
st. Louis in the Star route cases, Mr..
Elsenbery, put in an appearance, but
after conversation with him, Mr..
Bliss said that he found the testimony
would not be admissible because it had
not been referred to by Walsh upon his
examination. The testimony of ex-
Senator Spencer Is therefore the only
additional evidence that the prosecu.
tion intends to submit.
The Court then called upon the de.
fence to open their case. After some dis
cussion and consultation counsel for the
defence asked for an adjournment until
Monday, Mr.. Ingersoll stating that
they ought to have half day to con-
sule among themselves as to whether
evidence had been presented against
any of the defendants, and II so, against
whom. The Court suggested that they
wanted to decide who should and who
should not plead guilty, to which Mr.
IngersolI assanted. The Court then ad.
journed until Monday.

FOURTHEDITION
INDIGNANT FRONT STREETKRs.
The Residents or East Front street
WaG1n9 War on Double street
Car Tracks.

The Residents OF East Front street
WaElng War ON Double street
Car Tracks.
When the Wilmington Passenger
Railroad company, first laid a double
track on East Front street, about eigh-
teen years ago, the street was nothing
more than country road. At the
present time it is thickly settled and
numerous dwelling houses line
the street. Those engaged in business
have been seriously annoyed by having
two street car tracks on the street, as
the street is 30 narrow that a wagon
cannot drive up to the curb without
being compelled to move inside of five
minutes, in order that car may pass.
Several conferences have been held by
the residents in regard to the matter
and they are now waging war against
the street car company for the sup
preston Of the nuisance.
About week ago the company be-
gan to tear out the old timbers and re-
place them with new ones. A mum.
Der of the residents waited upon some
of the Company, and requested them to
lay one track along the street in place
of two. This request met with q re.
flsal unless the property holders
would subscribe a sufficient amount of
funds TO lay track down French
street from Fourth. This of curse the
property holders would not do.
The principal point Of their objection
is that persons who would deal at their
stores, and especially country people,
are deferred from so doing, because they
cannot stop their wagons on the street
any length of time before they have to
move, iu order to let car pass. AS
the street is narrow and the distance
short from Market street to the termi.
nus of the railroad, one track would
answer every purpose.
The valuation of property is seriously
by the double tracks and
owners thereof are unable to realize
a proper rental for the same, while the
business men are seriously "unoyed.
A reporter of the REPUBLICAN waited
upon several of the property holders
In regard to the affair and they all
with one accord are bitter against the
laying of double tracks, saying that ii
only one track existed they would do
twice the business.
1t was also stated that An indigna.
lion meeting will be held in the near
future and petition sent to the next
session Of the Legislature, asking that
,he nuisance be abated and that the |
owners be protected.
II is understood that the present |
charter of the company expires in /
Lbout year, and it is hoped that the
prayers of the petitioners will be favor
IDLY heard.
Among those most deeply interested
s P. Plunket, VIM H. Quinn, John
Furry, Cbas. Sparks, Frank R. s. Davis
Jhas. Ewing aud q number of others.
From the oppinion of an outsider 1t
ooks as though the road could be sue.
essfully operated fully as we'll with
ingle track as with two and the Com.
ANY should endeavor to please citizens
long the street.

A Bold Thief,

Yesterday morning q man living out
Eighth street lost COW in a very pc.
ouliar manner. The COW had gone
dry, and was kept in lot, a short dis
tance from his residence. Sometime
during the forenoon man came to the
lot, let the bars down and drove the
COW out. Some of the neighbors saw
the act, but supposed that the man had
orders to take the COW and so said moth
ing. When the owner of the COW came
home at noon he discovered that the
COW was gone and Immediately began
searching for it. After considerable
trouble he learned that the COW had
been sold to q prominent butcher in the
Eighth street market, who had it in a
slaughter house and was about to have
it killed when the owner discovered it.
Information was lodged at the police
station but up to this writing the thief
had not been captured and il is thought
he has left for parts unknown.
