The Arkansaw traveler., 1888-02-25
Written for The ArkGnSdW TrdveLeT.
 THE SNOW.
BY CLARA AUGUSTA.

It's matter of wonder and doubt Why it is that some folks rave about
 The snow, "the beautiful snow"- "So lovely, so pure, and so holy Falling down on the rich and the lowly"- Particularly on the latter When the mercury drops below zero, And the typical heart of hero Was never harder than charity, Nor half so much of a rarity
 In thls world of hustle and chatter. The poet he seizes his pen, And repairs to his up-attlc den
 To write a song of the sleigh His rhymes run to "dingle" and "mingle," "Silver bells," and "jingle" and "tingle," And he raves of the girls, and their curls, And the way the giddy slelgh whirls, And the horse is q fOur-legged wonder, That can beat chain lightning, and thunder! And we have it from sources official That he'll go far ahead, With his twO-mniute tread,
 Of Vanderbilt's Maud with the mystic mi
 tal.
 Now, what would be good for that poet If he'd only be willing to know 1t,
 Would be tenement dwelling, Where the cellar would, just for the wishing, Afford good boating, and fishing, When the thaw was out on racket, And the snow, there was nowhere to pack It, And the ram was just crazy to whack 1t,
 And the musical brooklcts were swelling, And the changes were many and various, And the ice made the footing precarious. One more loving poet should travel The streets that are washed clear of gravel With old rubbers and dead kittens waging, man that would stir his calm blood Let hlm look at the sight of the mystical
 light Of the moon in the night,
 AS it gleams on the mud, While hls footsteps press through Snow, slop, slush, pudding, porridge, and Irish
 stew

AFTERNOON SESSION.
The convention was called TO order
promptly at O'Clock. The parquet was
well filled with delegates and their friends.
To say it was filled is possibly not strong
enough as not only al the seats were occu.
pied, but there was not standing room
enough. Had il not been for the railing
the band would not have had room TO give
variety to the entertainment There was
in fact a lack OF room While the par
quet will seat over SIX hundred. aud the
delegates in number were only five hun
dred and eighteen the friends seemed to
be quite numerous and quite anxious TO be
in the arena with the champions, for i'm

10 strike below the belt. OF course 10 one
intended to use unfair means or disobey

The Legislature.

The Legislature met last Monday.
The House organized by the election of
Hon. S. P. Henry, of Cameron, as Speak
er; P. j. Trezeyant, of Caddo, as Clerk;
ard Thos. Mcintyre, of Orleans, as Ser
geant-at- Arms. The officers of the Sen
ate are: Hon. NJ. j. Foster, of st. Mary,
President pro. tenn. (the Lieutenant
Governor is ex-oficio President of the
Senate); G. D. Caffery, of Lafayette,
Secretary and j. G. P. Hooe, Of Rap
ides, Sergeant-at Arms.
Objection was made to the swearing
in of Senator Duson, on the ground
that his seat was contested by Hon.
Louis Stagg, but it was decided after
some discussion that having been re-
turned elected by the Secretary of State
he was eligible to seat, pending the
contest, and he was accordingly sworn
in. Mr.. Duson offered to exhibit his
quietus from the Auditor of Public Ac-
counts and from the Police Jury
of st. Landry, but the chairman decid-
ed that this was unnecessary, being a
matter for the consideration of the Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections.

Pleasing Incidents of the Press
Convention.

If we failed to say all that We desired
about the splendid and hospitable
management of the late Press Conven.
ton in Opelousas, our confreres of the
many journals who were present have
paid tributes to our people and parish
in far ADLER manner, and said generous
things abont their treatment here,
which would have sounded like egotis-
tical praise in us as representative of
home efforts but coming from visiting
editors add a hundred fold to the pub
lications of its proceedings and details
made to the world. If our people ex-
erted themselves to make their guests
enjoy themselves, their hospitality has
been extolled in ii way to make them
feel proud tAat they had an oppor-
tunity of bringing together so dis
tinguished and appreciative an assem-
blage in their midst. They were cap
tivated alike by our citizens and by
our country, They went away - no
longer strangers-but staunch friends
and true admirers of our surround
lngs. Their statements will do more
to bring immigration than any inter
ested boom or other publications would
have accomplished in years. II was a
most auspicious event and will be en-
during in the memories it has pleasant
~ left behind it.
