YESTERDAY was "Yom Kip

YESTERDAY was "Yom Kip
pur" with our Hebrew citizens, and,
of course, their places of business
were closed, and they were more or
less the day engaged in prayer
The prayers recited by them on
this feast day are of very fervent
nature, evoking the mercy OF God,
forgiveness of sins, prayers for a
good season and long life; to heal
the sick, comfort the sufferers and
to protect those governing the land;
also confessions of sin, prayers for
the dead and sermons; foes are
forgiven; the heart of man is to be
purified and cleansed of all evil,
and a renovation is to set in, so that
when evening comes and the horn
is blown, man has reconciled him
self to his God and to nature, aud
as a better being he re-enters upon
the journey of life. He has made
atonement and feels blessed.

E Beautiful Monument.

Yesterday we accepted an invita-
ton from Mr.. w. O. Dammon,
agent here of the Monumental
White Bronze Company of Bridge
port, Conn, to visit his shop on
Front Street, and there see a mon
ument made of the above named
material, received by him on FRI
day night by T. and P. train, and
to be shortly erected over the grave
Of DR.. John Casson's mother, whose
remains lie buried in Pineville.
The monument is one f the
most beautiful, chaste and appro-
pirate structures of the kind it has
been our good fortune to see. 1t
stands on we'll built foundation,
the base of which measures 22x22
inches. The main shaft is 4 feet
81 inches in height, on the top Of
which is added a beautiful urn 10
inches in height, making the whole
structure stand S feet II inches
above the ground. The monument
is beautifully carved with wreaths
and flowers, and the design and
finish is faultless, and commands
admiration. The only lettering is
on the front and back sides, or
more properly speaking on the
North and South sides.
On the former in plain raised
letters are the two words "Emily-
Clementina," and below on what
is called the plinth in larger let
tiers appears the word "Casson,"
and on the back or South side are
the figures "1ss4." On the shaft
in front is representation Of Hope
with the appropriate emblem.
Our space will not allow a more
extended notice Of this piece of
work. Taken as a whole the struc-
ture is a splendid piece Of work
manship, and as the material Of
which the same is made, combines
the three qualities of beauty, dura-
bility and cheapness, we think the
White Bronze monuments superior
to all others.
In conjunction with the above
we would also state that Mr.. Dam
mon recently erected a monument,
of the White Bronze make, over
the graves of Mr.. B. H. DeSola's
two children. He will also shortly
all orders taken in St. Landry and
Avoyelles Parishes. J,

Who ever heard of fire ia Il summer
