The drama of 'LynwOOd," to he present
ed by this well-knOwn artist, Mt the Opera
House, tomorrow evening, is play that
reflects great credit upon its author, Mr..
J. X. Tillotson. 1t displays no incOnsid-
cradle knowledge of stage craft. The plot
is original and is worked out in series of
scenes, each one powerful in itself, but
leading up TO still more striking climaXes.
There is no attempt at sensatiOnaliSm.
The author had clear-cut clean story
and he needed not of the fictitious acceS-
series that are only too often dragged i'll to
give additional effect, by less conscientious
playwtights. The entire story is power
full in itself and ii loses nothing i'll the
telling. Mr.. Tillotson has written an ex-
cellent play, and it will he a success.

him from getting into trouble, and finally
got McNeely's promise to have nothing
to do with Brown. McNeeiy was drink
ing good deal, and it would have been
Just as easy to have influenced him to
take part in lynching Brown as to rescue
him. Smith did not keep his hat on nor
act rudely, nor did he see any one who
did, he simply having been present out OF
curiosity to hear the verdict, as he thought
all the others were. He says any intima-
ton that he had any part or parcel IN
or abetted such lawless proceeding is
absolutely and unqualifedly false.
We feel satisfied Mr.. G. has done him
self and the community an injustice in
making his statement and claiming that
lawlessness is predominant here. In fact
his words carry their refutation with them,
and the very statement he makes that
''every thing passed off quietly at last" is
convincing proof that the law abiding
element predominates III the town, and
Browns conviction and safe delivery in
the penitentiary is indubitable witness to
the nerve and love of justice among our
people. Beside, such happening, if
real and genuine, can no more be laid to
this community than similar demonstra-
tons that have occurred in Alexandria
and other towns repeatedly. In lonely
locality in the center of the parish such
schemes could be carried on much more
successfully than in town where help can
be readily summoned.
Mr.. s. M. Lacroix says he saw no such
demonstration in the court room, and
does not believe it occurred as stated. or
he would have seen it. Browns little
child sat in her fathers lap. After con-
viction Lacroix and Lacour locked the
prisoner in jail.

Hon. b. W. Marston, who has been on
to Washington, and lately heard Mr..
Blsnchard'sisp speech on the pension bill,
gives the following account of the affair /:
A member from Illinois everlastingly drew
the dead line between the North and South and
soundly abused the President, claiming it was
the great r,ch North" which paid these PEN
sions. The debate soon became exciting, and it
looked to me as il the Republicans had the best
of il. Finally Blanchard got the floor. and with
the facts and figures on the tips of his fingers
he proved that the poor South" paid more than
one fllrd of the pensions, and the great rich
North" became the beneficiary. A dozen Repub-
icans were on their feet at q time to interrupt
him, but it was Of no avail. He made his point.
If Mr.. Blanchard's opponents in the 4th district
could have heard this debate, doubt IL there Is
one of them but who would have been proud Of
him. With no disparagement to other candi-
dates 1 doubt if there is another gentleman in
the lth district who could have represented us
SO ably on this occasion. Blanchard's reputa-
ton at home has been that Of a pains-taking
Woodworking Congressman. Here in Washing
ton he stands among the ablest members Of the
House. The ith district is right to sustain him,
and he should receive the nomination by accla-
mafi0u.

The Rogers boys, who were frozen to
death, and who occasioned considerable
anxiety, have been found. The SYRIA
cuse correspondent of the Garden City
Sentinel, January 29th, says: John
Drake and Charles Workman, of Gree

Rogers boys for eight days, and found
them last Monday, being lost twenty

EDITOR TIMEs:-I desire, in the name
of the settlers for hundred miles south
and for miles east, west and north, as
we'll as my customers in this city, to re-
turn thanks to the A., T. & s. F. rail-
road company for the manner in which
they stepped between US and the bitter
cold weather with coal. When the
storm came on l had on hand over four
hundred tons Of coal, which was soon
exhausted, and for the past two weeks
the railroad company have daily sent
down to my yard cars of coai enough to
supply the demand. No one who has
experienced the long to be remembered
month of January, 1886, but what will
recognize a most friendly and humane
feeling between the railroad company
and the people on the line of their
road, who would have endured great
suffering, and in some cases, much
worse, had it not been for their coming
to the rescue. Respectfully,
