nouncing Judge Edward Simon, as a can
didate for District Judge, in the Farmer

mon, his son. about his fathers candidacy
and he said that his father was not yet q
candidate. and the card was surprise TO
his father, James told us that some per-
sons in New Iberia had asked the Judge
if he wonld accept the candidacy for that
Office, whereupon he replied: do as you
please"

Too Premature.

Aresolution passed by the DemOcra-
tie Parish Executive Committee, c0mpcls
the Assessor and Police Jurors to sub
nit their names to the primaries which
VIII be held on the first of March, for
recommendation for appointment 10 the
Governor.
We favor the idea of compelling the
above named officers to SubInit their
names 10 the people, but when the time
comes for their appointment. and not
one year before the terms of the present
officers expire, which will be in Deccm-
bcr.
We cannot blame the gentlemen for
the adoption OF this resolution AZ this
early date. because we know they did il
for the benefit of the Democratic party
and their premature action is merely the
ignorance of the facts, regarding the time
Of the appointment of these officers.

DIR. PICK MAKES HIS AUDIENCE REMEMBER IN
SPITE OF THEMSELVES.


Dr. Edward Pick who has IN Europe for many
years been well known instructor in the art Of
improving the memory, gave a lecture that sub
iect yesterday afternoon in Chckerng Hail The
lecture was managed by Major J. 3. Pond and the
audience was gratifyingiy large and composed in the
main of men and women of scholastic bcnts and pur-
suits. Marshall wilders figure, though diminutive
was conspicuous in the throng and everybody won
dered why in the world he should want to cultivate
further his already unusually retcntvc memory.
Thomas W. Knox presided, and introduced the
lecturer with much humorous ringing OF changes ON
his name. which Is inviting to the least guilty OF
punsters. He recalled the story of the English youth
who was fogged by his father In order that the day
OF the fall of Sebsstopol might be impressed on the
lads memory. The audience laughed heartily at this,
but when DIR. Pick explained his method they were
sstonshed to discover that It not SO lar removed

DR.. Pick began his discourse with the parado1icai
statement that memory had little TO 90 with me

events of their youth clearly than others OF
