The Reception of The Class of ,S6 Al The High School Hall Last Evening One of The Most Brilliant Recep. lions Ever

The Reception of The Class of ,S6 At
 The High School Hall Last Evening
 One of The Most Brilliant Recep.
 t1Ons Ever Given.
 Last evening the graduating exercises of the graduating class of the Hillhouse High school came to close with the class recep- tion held at the school hall, which proved to be one of the most brilliant receptions ever held by any of the graduating classes. The number of invitations was limited and only
 about three hundred dancers were on the
 floor, which was not crowded and gave those
 present 8 chance to dance to their hearts,
 content The people entered by the Orange
 street doors which face upon the broad stair
 case, at the foot of which were placed various
 kinds of potted plants. On the first and second
 landings were tropical plants which had
 been tastily selected and arranged by Dick
 erman the florist. The stairs were also
 heavily carpeted, and on each of the chan deliers had been placed different colored globes, the light and reflection from which
 brilliantly displayed the pretty scene below. The hall itself was also handsomely decorated with potted plants, class notices and pictures. The class motto of 'S6, 'Semper Crescens," con- sisting of roses and smilax, was suspended over the platform, on which were arranged seats for the members of the Board of Edu- cation and other visitors. Two rows of benches had been placed around the sides of the hall for the accommodation of the dancers, and the floor had been marked into sections so that those who wished to waltz while the others were dancing the square dances would not interfere with each other. The ladies and gents dressing rooms were on the third floor and everything was provided for their convenience. Robinson's full or chsstra furnished the music for the eighteen dances and three extras, the programme of which was as follows

THE HEINEMAN MYSTERY.


Detective Brewer Returns From New

 The Proba bility of an Arrest-The
 COroner's Report To-Day
 Detective Brewer has returned from his trip to New York city where he went in search of witness who is regarded the missing link in the chain of evidence which will fasten the responsibility for poor Sadie Heineman's unnatural death at the door of a New Haven physician. Frank Bradley was the man wanted. The detective is reticent in regard to his work in New York. He re- fuses to say anything about the results of his trip. It is thought probable that the coro- ner has got Bradley's statement or else that the young man has consented to appear per- sonally as witness in the case. The coro- ner's report to State Attorney Doolittle will be made to-day.

Excited Over The Convict System.

ST. LOUIS, May 21.-A special from
Little Rock, Ark, says The people OF
Coal Hill, in this State, are greatly
excited over the discovery that the
convict system is now in force in one
of the Coal Hill mines near that viii
lage. The Ouita Coal company, of this
city, owns a mine about three miles
from Coal Hill which is operated exclu
sively by convicts to tothe exclusion OF
miners who have been thrown out OF
employment by them. Complaints
have been made to the governor OF
this violation of the law, and appeals
have been sent begging him to take
means to have the convicts removed
and the work given to licensed miners,
and it is feared unless some decisive
action shall be taken by him very soon

THE MAXWELL..PRELLER CASE.

THE MAXWELh.-PRELLER CASE.
ST. LOUIS, May, 2l.-Arthur Max.
Wells case proceeds. The interest In
the prisoner and his probable fate in.,
creases. Several prominent clergy.
men were present at the court room
yesterday morning, as were also q
large number of ladies and these, to-
gether with the many other specta-
tors, packed the room in the doors.
The first witness was barber, John
3. Armor, doing business at Is North
Broadway, near the Southern hotel.
Maxwell called at his shop between
and 7 o'clock on the evening of April
6, 1885. His hair and beard were
both very long and he asked TO have
the former trimmed and the latter
shaved of. The barber did this and
Maxwell then asked him if he could
recognize him if he had knowR him
when bis hair and beard were long.
Witness told him that such a thing
would be impossible, and Maxwell
seemed pleased at his answer. The
prisoner had talked like parrot all
the time he was in the shop; told all
his stories about himself; said he was
going into the country for a day or
two, but would soon return. The
counsel for the prisoner in cross exam.
lining the witness tried to show that
Maxwell evinced no uneasiness and
seemed unc0ncerned as to whether or
not his having been shaved had
changed his appearance, but the an.
swers to his questions resulted in show
ing that the contrary had been the
case; that the prisoner looked nervous
ly around whenever any one entered
the room; that he was continually
slipping down in his chair as if not to
attract attention. II
Samuel Hughes, ticket agent for the
San Francisco railway, was the next
witness. He identified the prisoner
as the man to whom he had sold q
ticket to San Francisco April 5, 1885;
identified the ticket which bore bis
own signature and that of II, M.
Brooks; prisoner had made no inquiry
as to the price of the ticket and when
be paid for it he drew forth a large
roll of bills of large denominations.
The:defense waived cross-examination
George s. Hess of Hess & Culberson
pawnbrokers, had met the prisoner on
the 3rd or 4th of April 1885. The
prisoner wanted to borrow S25 on a
watch chain. Witness refused to loan
so much; prisoner tried to sell him
other trivial articles, saying that be
must have money. On the Monday
after Faster Sunday the prisoner called

Rouge special to the N. o. Picayune
To-day in the House Mr.. Allan
called attention to the articles pub
lished in the Picayune and Baton
Rouge Truth giving an account of the
case of Theophile Cavalier, the convict
whose feet were cut off on account of
frost bite. He suggested that the mat4
ter demanded Investigation by the
Committee on Penitentiary.
Gen. Munday, chairman of this
committee, made a statement in regard
to the Penitentiary affairs. He revie.
wed the transactions of the last session
In regard to this institution. The
information had been given him that
the bill of 1884, relative to working
convicts on the levees had saved the
State at least $4,000. The speaker
asserted that he was ignorant, of the
existence OF any ring or combination to
aid the Penitentiary iessees in the
Legislature. If there was anything
wrong in the management of the in
stitation he desired to know it aud
would inquire into il.
Mr.. Laroque, of Orleans, said he
would corrobOrate the statements in the
paper, as far as his knowledge went.
He was acquainted with Cavalier
| before he went to the Penitentiary, and
had seen him in that place after his
feet were amputated. He considered
Gen. Munday's remarks too general
and outside of the issue.
Gen. Munday said the matter would
be laid before the committee.
Mr.. Cage remarked that he hoped
the committee would give the true
condition of affairs in the Penitentiary
and Mr.. Allan said he had no idea
that the spark he had thrown out
would create such a fire. The COM
mittee was instructed to investigate.
The House Constitution Committee
will report untavorably on the bill to
enlarge the civil jurisdiction OF justices
of the peace.
The Lands and Levee Committee of
the House will report unfavorably on
the bill to close Bayou Rouge, in st.
Landry, for several reasons. The
measure has not been advertised in
accordance with law. Also unlavorably
on Prichard's resolution, that the
General Assembly and all persons
interested in levee Improvements det-
ermine upon some policy in regard to
closing the Atchafalaya, for the reason
that is too indefinite to permit the
committee to act intelligibly.
! The House Railroad Committee
appointed subcommittee, consisting
of Messrs. Graham, Richardson and
Dudenhefer, to confer with sub.com"
mittee of the Senate Committe on
Railroads, with a view of agreeing on
a satisfactory bill.
The Committee on Labor and Capt..
tai met, Mr.. Laroque, chairman, and
O'Dennell, secretary. The first meass
ure taken up was Mr.. Baths bill to
create bureau of labor statistics. The
object of the bill was stated to he the
ascertainment Of the true condition of
taborers in the State, and the relations
between employer and employed. 1T
