MONROE, La. JUNE IS, lBRHAN
TO PREyHNT THE DESTRUCTION OF

Following is an Act Of the legislature
enacted In 1880, the provisions OF
which are butt little known, aud are
observed but by very few people. We
are not sure, in fact, that the district
judges ever comply with the require
ments of the 4th section. The Act in
full reads as follows: Tt
Section 1. Be it enacted by the
General Assembly of the State OF
Louisiana, that it shall be unlawful for
any person or persons to put any poi>
son or poisonous substance ofaoy kind,
any trap, gill.net, hedge or any other
obstruction In any river, bayou, creek,
lake, pond or any stream, water
course or other body OF water, within
the limits of the. State Of Louisiana
with intent by the aforesaid means to
kill, capture, retard or prevent the free
passage of fish, during any season OF
the year; provided this act shall not be
SO construed as to interfere with
trigger-traps or other traps placed near
the edge of the water, and which do
not retard or prevent the free passage
of fish, nor prevent the construction of
temporary works aud breaks during
the months of Februery and March,
for the purpose of catching buff'lo and
carp.
Section 2. That any violation of
this act shall be construed rs nisde-
meanor and may be tried before any
court of competent jurisdiction. -
sSection 8. That any peIson or per-
sons violating this act on conviction
shall be imprisoned ten dass in the
parish Jail or fined s25, or bosh, at the
discretion of the court.
Section 4. That it shall be The duty
of all district judges to give this law
specially in charge to grand jurors.
Section s. That all laws in conflict
Herewith be and the same are hereby
repealed.

Something About Profane Swearing.

Cincinnati Times-Star; As the brake
man slipped on the platform this norm
ing a manly oath noated back in the
whizzing, buzzing atmospheric most
eloquent contribution to the profane
history of the day.
"Oh, par exclaimed Johnny, lust
hear that fellow swear. It's wicked to
swear, hain't itP"
Certainly"
why is it wicked, ps?"
Simply because it expresses IN I'M
natural condition of the mind. The
man who swears tries TO reach an idea
by a short cut. He goes through a
dark noisesome alley instead of by a
broad, pleasant thoroughtare. The
mere expression, the iangle of ounds
itself, does not constitute a social
crime, hut il is wrong because it de-
scribes IA condition of high pressure of
mind which society says mustn't exist.
1t is the condition Of mind and not the
parrot talk that makes profanity
wrong"
'.Is it wrong to say Rats, pap"
"No, my son The expression Rats
is Only star spelled backwards, and is
only proof that a displacement of
material expressive of sublimity forms
something intensely ridiculous. That
is the reason "A crank is as much a nat
ural product as a philosopher. The
component parts are placed "a little diff
ferently, that is all. We are all made
of the same material, but it is placed in
a different relation to other parts IN
everybody"

%covetouS eyes. Il sec that this is the
stone that you had stolen from YOU
in camp, some days since. 4 had a
glimpse Of it the morning Mr.. Girard
here --nodding at Ned-''was showing
It to Jacobs, the broker, on Krail
street. ! should know it among q
| thousand"
MArthur who, with his recovered
reyolvers, which he had buckled ON.
had assumed his usual air of bragpado-
clio. was heard TO express considerable
dissatisfaction.
Zone diamond is like another!' he
growled.
And his idea was that under the T.
cumstances the whole party had a sort
OF a common interest in this one, to
which the brokers gave ready assent.
I'D like to see any one try to take
it, said Ned, with a dangerous CLEAN
in his eyes.
Little Mr.. Smith, nodding APPROX
ingly, removed from the dead mans
body the money belt of which Mr..
N|Arthur had been deprived. But in
stead of handing it to that gentleman
he buckled it about his w waist with
an agreeable smile.
What the deuce does this mean?"
yelled M'Arthur, whose face was
purple with rage; when, no less to his
WI than our establishment, his arms
were pinioned by the little colporteur
who seemed to have the strength of
two ordinary men, And in another
moment his wrists were adorned with a
pair of shining steel handouts.
Its no use kicking, William"
quietly remarked his captor, removing
a faded tlaxen wig from his own head,
and exposing to view a short crop of
stubby black hair. II didn't mean to
have pulled you until we got to Wei.
lington, but this little sffair has preclp-
itated matters u little.
After we were all again en- route,
having left word at the next station as
to the disposition of the outlaws
bodies, the pseudo Mr.. Smith informed
us that the scowling prisoner was one
William Hardy with IA dozen aliases,
whom he-Dennison Hunt, the then
best known detective in England-had
followed from Liverpool to the very
heart of South Africa, a reward of
Il 900 having been offered for his APP
prehension as principal in a great Lon
don bank robbery.
"But / never thought l should be
the means of helping you two gents to
your lost property" said Mr.. Smith.
as we alighted in front of the Diggers'
Retreat, at Wellington, four days later.
And, to his credit be it said, the de-
tective would not accept n penny of
recompense from either of US. The
excitement of the little 'scrimmage'
was enough he said as we shook
hands at parting.

LONDON, Dec. THE Daily News says Of
the North American fisheries dispute, sug-
gestcd by President Cleveland's message, that
the governments of Great Britain and the
United States ought not TO allow the matter
to rest until they have arranged a satisfactory
settlement Of the question. The difficulty
seems % be that America wants the right to
fish. but New England does not want free
trade, and the same Unsuitable greed Of pro-
lection underlies the diff Guilty OF disposing Of
the surplus revenue. Protection will die
hard, but America is beginning to be regard
ed with increasing popular mistrust, aud the
proposed revision of the tariff may be the be
ginning Of the end.
The Standard says OF President Cleveland's
message; "The message is a sensible and
statesmanlike production and eminently pa
cifc in its tone. In 1t the note Of menace Is
not heard, though in describing the state Of
the fisheries question, the president throws
undue blame upon the Canadian fishermen.
Still there is not a word spoken that could
excite hostility or rekindie strife"
The Daily Telegraph says uregarding the
fisheries dispute; "Never were words in
cluded in an American presidents message
which more deserved the earnest and prompt
attention Of the British ministry than those
of President Cleveland concerning the ques
| lions of the Canadian fisheries. To leave the
dispute open now would be criminal short
sightednrss.
The Times says it is fortunate that the ne
| gotiatiOns for the settlement of the fisheries
disputes are in the hands Of the two govern
ments instead Of the immediate disputants in
the fishery question. The opposing interests
seem at this time to be too strong for any
movement in America toward free trade.

thus: 'gThis paper contains an abb

subscribe for its encouragement. If
two hundred subscribe, it shall be de-
livered to any public or private house
