The news of the serious Illness and sudden
death Of Mrs. JnmonviIle was received here

her numerous relatives and friends in Assem-

possessed graces Of person and mind that
won her the admiration and regard of all with
whom she was thrown in contract. She was
enjoyed but nine brief months OF welded bliss
whom the icy hand OF death was laid upon her
and she was torn from the midst of loving kins
dred and friends white her young life was
about to have the browning JOY Of maternity
adled to its other blessings. To the bereaved
young husband the stricken parents and all

the CHIEF extends heartfelt sympathy.

With the afflicted parents. whose fond hearts
have been SO sorely tried by the loss OF this lit

thize. May the cruel blow be softened by the
consciousness that their darling's spirit has
winged its flight to region of bliss eternal
where the cares and trials which abound on
earth are unknown. II. Il. IL.

An impromptu hop took place at Phoenix
Hall last evening, under the auspices of the
young men of the Ascension Rifles, and the
affair afforded no little enjoyment to the
participants. As there was drizzling rain
falling during the early portion of the eve
ming, Schonberg's hack was brought into
requisition for the purpose of conveying
ladies to the hall. The party gathered to-
gether in this way was very pleasant one,
and the projectors of the informal enter
tainment no doubt felt amply rewarded for
the trouble they had taken and the efforts
they put forth in connection Herewith. 1t
was not far from midnight when this scribe
wendell his way homeWard from the dom1-
Gle of the CHIEF, and at that hour the tones
of Mrs. Gaudet's fine piano were still is
suing forth from Phoenix Hall, indicating
that the inmates were yet INDUCING in the
pleasures of the dance. Many of our local
readers will recall the enjoyable reunions
of this character that attended the drills of
the Cofeld Guards during the first year or
two after the organization of that COM
mand, and will remember the interest and
zest they added to the company's meetings.
If the Rifles will occasionally repeat their
entertainment of last evening we think the
effect will prove decidedly beneficial in the
way of securing the attendance of their
members, besides affording enjoyment to
their lady friends.

MARRIED.-At the st. Elizabeth Catholic
Church in Paincourtvilie on Tuesday last
Mr.. Paul Savoy of Assumption, formerly a
resident of our town, was united in the
bonds of matrimony with Miss Philomene
Jumonville, an Assumption belle, in the
presence of large and brilliant assemblage
of friends and relatives, numbering some
800 persons. After the ceremony the party
proceeded to the residence of the groom's
father, Mr.. Jos. Savoy, where the evening
was spent in dancing, toasting, singing,
ETC., and the occasion was one that will be
long remembered with pleasurable emotions
by all who participated. AS matter of
interest to our lady readers particularly,
the costumes of the bride and bridesmaids:
Miss Jumonyille was clad in white silk,
trimmed with brocaded silk and Gui pure
lace; Miss Celeste Savoy, sister of the
groom and first bridesmaid, wore cream
! coIored silk, trimmed with rich Spanish lace;
Miss Emanuella Jumonyille, sister of the
bride and second bridesmaid, wore sea
l * 81
| foam blue; Miss Emma King, daughter of
! Gabriel King and third bridesmaid, was
clad in white silk; the fourth bridesmaid,
Miss Alphonsine Guedry, wore cream col
ored silk, trimmed with Spanish lace. The
groomsmen were Messrs.R aoul Jumonville,
John E. Terrio, Allain Guedry and Sabin
Jeaneligini. Music for the wedding ball
was furnished by the Donaldsonyille String
Band, of which the groom is a member,
and it is unnecessary to say that their
melody was one of the prominent features
of the occasion. The CHIE unites with
the friends of the happy couple in felicita-
ting them upon the pleasant auspices under
which their union was consummated, and
wishes them a long Life of welded bliss.

CUTTING AFFRAY.-William james, aged
about 81 years, and John johnson, who is
% OF 80 years old, both colored residents
of Smoke Bend settlement, got into
quarrel last Wednesday evening, near the
First Baptist Church, and soon came from
words to blows. James is said to have
used stick so vigorously on his younger
antagonist that the latter beat a retreat,
followed closely by the old man. johnson
ran until he reached the head Of the lane
leading to the church, when he suddenly
turned about and closed with James, stab
bing him four times with pocket knife.
Three of the cuts are In the back and one
under the left shoulder, the latter being the
most severe. Jae..ssss II quite seriously hurt,
anu we have even heard the opinion ex-
pressed that he may not recover. Justice
Bush Investigated the matter and COM
mitted johnson for trial before the Dis
trict Court, requiring him to furnish bond
in the regal sum of $50.

School BOARD. - The Board of School
Directors of this parish met Saturday, pur-
suant to adjournment, with Messrs. Nolan,
Gondran, Vega, Duncan, Ayraud and Cook
in attendance. The minutes of the previous
meeting were read and approved and a re-
port received from the Treasurer showing
that during the current year he has received
$4242 81 of school money, and disbursed
1892 55, leaving balance of s270 Is on
hand. A resolution was adopted extend
ing the time in which applications will be
received from persons desiring to teach in
the public schools of the parish, to Wednes-
day, October s, and directing the Secretary
to given public notice accordingly. The
proposition to open the schools in Octo-
Der WIS discussed informally and the con-
clusion reached that the funds available at
that time would not warrant such an early
opening. It is more than probable that it
will be decided to defer the commencement
of the term until January. The Board will
meet again on the 8th of October.

A slow, drizzing rain of about two hours
duration prevailed here last evening, but
the quantity Of water which fell was quite

Three miles up the river, at and about the

heavy, but still further up there was none
at all.
