We received through friend who
would give no names, the following
effusion in rhyme, which we suppose is
from the pen Of Opelousas' laureate
poet:
..Poor Hardeman. what would become OF you,
ri you'd be left without chew;
For chew you must, fits good or ill,
AHd you never seem to get your I'LL.
A subscription we shall get up soon,
Far getting you huge spittoon;
For we readers of the DEMOCRAT,
Think then you couldn't miss spat.'
We caald grind "cud" with much more ease,
Than take Of krout or Limberg' cheese;
For OF the latter to partake,
WoHld milder stomachs' organs shake,
And cross our nature-sO devOut.-
BY tanning inward nurture out;
Yet after all, tits but your taste,
To store away what we would waste.

If the water continues to fall, our
Atchafalaya planters can soon return to
their homes and plant crops. AS their
fences have mostly been swept away,
they propose to take only work stock
back, and not enclose their fields this
season. This can be easily done there,
because the Atchafalaya is so far from
the high lands that stock will not be
apt to cross the swamp to go there ;
but at Big Cane, Petite Prairie, Waxia,
Barry's Landing and other places near
the high lands the fences have also
been washed away, and the farmers
there will have no protection against
their neighbors' stock, except by build
ing fences which they will hardly have
the means and time to do.

The Rink Well PatrOnized--A Masqner.
AIDE to Take Place Soon Bellevue
Wants Some Of Our Fun.
The roller-skating rink in Haley
Theater was literally patronized yes
terdav, and especially during the
evening session, when the surface was
comfortably crowded. The usual joy-
GUS crowd was in attendance, also
many strangers. The skaters who
have been more than once GA rollers
display some proficiency, and are de-
lighted with the pastime, while the
novices afford great amusement to the
spectators by their evolutions and
awkward tumbling. The enterprise
is already an assured suctess, and
takes well. During every afternoon
the ladies' and children's session is
well patronized, and in few days
most all of the ladies in HALEY will be
more or less proficient in the art Of
roller-skating. The plan Of admit
ting ladies only at the afternoon ses-
sions will afford ladies' a better oppor-
tunity to learn and be, ONE proficient
enough to participate at the evening
session.. There will be music on
stated occasions for skaters to acquire
the art Of moving as in dancing,
| with one accord, and in short time
a grand masquerade skating carnival
will be given, when full string band
| will perform, all skaters will be re-
quired to appear masked or in cos
tune, and spectators will be accom-.
modatcd on the stage. There will be
especial arrangements for children
every Saturday during the day. As
Saturdays are school holidays, the
rink will be exclusively devoted to
their use, until the evening session.
when no children will be allowed on
the floor.
The management desires it dis.
tinctly understood that no smoking
will be permitted in the rink, neither
will tile use Of tobacco, which ruin,
the surface.

Ward & Quantrell have been re
questel to establish a roller-skatina
rink in Bellevue, and have arranged
to lease the Coliseum and Law a new
floor, when they will open a new rink
there also.

THE WOOD RIVER CONyICTs.
They Are Safely Lodged In the Terrific.
rial Penitentiary.

Sheriff ID. H. Gray returned yester-
day from his trip to Boise City, and
was somewhat fatigued on account of
losing his rest. He had charge of
Chiatovich, Smith, Woodward and
johnson, the prisoners ordered. under
sentence of the District Court, to va
rious periods in the Territorial prison
at Boise City. Sheriff Gray was ac-
companied, also, by Budd Phillips.
When at Jones's station, Phillips was
taken suddenly ill, and was falling,
but was caught by Howard Gray, who
feared death had robbed him of his
assistant. For IL minutes Phillips
did not breathe, neither had he any
pulse, and his body turned icy cold
but with the aid Of the ladies at the
station he was revived by the use Of
camphor and vigorous rubbing. His
attack was the result of over-excite-
ment, and when he recovered his
speech the first utterance was
"Where are the boys?' Sheriff Ora,
relieved his mind, and got him
through to Boise, where he now holds
the position Of Warden i'll the prison
The prisoners behaved themselves
well, after the first station was passed
At that place they appeared to be
willing to escape, if possible, com.
planned that their handouts were tos
tight, and wanted them loosened; but
Mr.. Gray ordered them to leave of
working at them, and said that he
would put into the first man that triec
to escape the contents of double
barreled shotgun. The friendly warn
ing appeared to be satisfactory, as the
prisoners aftcrward dropped all move
mcnts calculated to annoy the officers
Sheriff Gray met Samuel Ridgway
going in with District Attorney Haw
ley. He is therefore probably in the
penitentiary by this time.
The large number Of convicts re
ceived at the Territorial prison b,
the expectations from Alturas county
has taxed the boarding accommoda
tons of that establishment consitera

THE NEW ORGAN.
4 Handsome Instrument, which is Salts.
factory in Every Respect.


The new chapel organ just received,
and now at the schoolhouse, is one Of
the E.tev improved, made at Erattle-
boro, Vermont. 1t cost $40 and the
freight to Haley was about $40. 1t
stands four feet high, is four feet long
and three feet wide. There are eight
stops, two swells, and . sets of reeds,
1t has remarkably full, yet sweet
tone, with wide-range compass,
which will improve with age, and in a
year or two, if frequently used, it will
be perfect. The stops are the flute,
melodia, diapason, principal har-
monique, lao, $40, and sub bass. It
has double treadle, very easy in its
action. The case is black walnut Of
ornamental design, and highly fin
ished. The top is very handsomely
ornamented and has lamp-stands and
music-racks. It is the most durable
style Of organ made, and is warranted
for number Of years. If it fails in
any respect to fully equal the guaran-
tee, the Estey Organ Company will
replace it by a new one.
There is later improvement which
could have been secured. It is added
to every organ, if desired, and con-
sists in changeable keyboard which
can be adjusted SO as to allow the play
er to use the same keys to any
scale, as the shifting Of the keyboard
according to the key desired renders
all the semi-tones, flats and sharps, as
desired, without the performer being
required to use the fiat and sharp
keys. This Improvement IS Of great
convenience to organists who are not
very proficient, and also on occasions
when very rapid execution is re-
CURED, as in some of the grand pro
duet;ons Of Mozart and Mendelssohn.

MUSIC MADE EASY.
4 New Method by which Anyone can
Learn to Play Oh the Piano or Organ
In Il Few DAYS.
BLY,.

Mr.. F'uld, of the postoflice store in
this city, has just received supply Of
Merrlll's Primary Music Teacher, an
ingenious method for interesting chill
eren and beginners i'll the study Of
music. 1t consists Of four charts to
stand on the keys of the organ or pi-
ano. They We're originally designed
for the "million," but have been found
exceedingly useful in teaching chill
dren the elements Of music, especial
" the location Of letters Oh the staff
and their relation to the keys Of the
instrument.
The familiar tunes on the charts are
designed as an amusement for any one
who cannot read music, There are
perpendicular lines extending from
the notes and letters on the staff to
the right keys on the instrument.
On the right -hand side of these lines
are figures beginning with and num-
bering consecutiycly up to as many
as there are notes in the first part
Of the tune. The player should strike
the key under No. |, then follow with
striking the key under No. 2, then 3,
i, ), 6, !, s, 8, 10 and so on to the
end. The second part Of the tune be-
gins with one again, and is explained
by the chart. The Roman numerals
on the left hand side of the perpen-
dicular lines designate the chords to
be played with the left hand when
the right hand plays the number OPP
posite The charts explain fully these
fundamental harmonies, and any child
can learn to produce them with little
effort in the different keys, and thus
acquire a knowledge Of chords which
many never learn.
BY studying these charts the dull
est intellects can learn to play Oh the
piano or organ in a few days The
method is 50 simple that i'll few les
sons, even the untutored savage, for
whom music hath its charms, can be-
come proficient Oh any keyed instru-
ment. The charts sell for So asset.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOL.
End Of the Fall Term-A Change Of
Teachers.

The fall term Of the HALEY public
school will end with this month, and
on the first Of December there will be a
public examination of the pupils,
which parents and all others who feel
an interest in the success Of the pub
lie school, are invited to attend.
After the examination a vacation
lasting a couple Of weeks will begin,
and when school re-opens for the win
ter term it will be under new teach
ers, as Miss Carpenter and Miss Dol
larhide, the present teachers, have
rendered their designations, to take ef-
feet at the end of the present term.
| The new teachers will be Miss
| Nichols and Mis-. Taylor. Miss Nich-
OILS will have charge of the senior de-
partment, which Miss Carpenter is
now teaching, and Mrs. Taylor will
succeed Miss Dollarlide IN the pr-
mary department. Miss Nichols
taught for years in Nevada and Cali
fornia, and Mrs. Taylor taught IA
terms in the State of New York
They are therefore experienced teach
ers, and they will doubtless maintain
the school up to the high degree o.
excellence to which Miss Dollarhide
and Miss Carpenter have raised it.

Hon. HENRY l.. GARLAND, President st. Lall-
dry Bar Association
DEAR SIR--One of our objects in forming the
st. Landry Bar Association wis to establish Il
uniform rate of charges for the merely formal
portion of legal services Which involved no
litigation, such us obtaining Judgment on mon
cy claims, percentage on collections. amt NOR
tuary proceedings in SUGGESTIONS, etc. etc.
And for this purpose. Il reasonable and just
tariff WAS adopted
But there was also another important pllr-
pose intended to be accomplished, and that
was to prevent if possible. the practice of law
by non-prefeSSiOnal men.
1t was conceded that these purposes could
not be accomplished unless our Association
embraced the entire bar of this parish, and so
every prartiriliE attorney OF our bar became
members of the Association. Since that time,
however. several attorneys have commenced
the practice here who have not seen proper to
become members. and tile practice of the pro
fcsSion by non professional men continues to
the SAME extent as ever
Our main purpose has therefore failed. and
we respectfully withdraw from the Associ;l-
ton. and i'll doing so, beg leave to suggest that
the Association be dissolved.
Respectfully,
