Death of Charles sohulhaus.

Oeatn Oh CnArhet oCuuin0uBs
Our people were startled last Wsdnes-
day evening by the report that Charles
Schulhaus, of this city, bad committed
suicide. Mr.. SchuIhaus had been in poor
health for some months aud had had at
times severe attacks of pain 10 the head,
dependency, etc. On the evening in
question, he seemed somewhat quiet, but
greeted bis friends pleasantly, and went
to the post Office as usual for his mail,
which, not being changed, be decided not
to wait for, and went to his office. In a
half hour thereafter he was found lying
dead upon the floor with bullet wound
in bis left breast. DR.. E. w. Closson,
Coroner, held an inquest, and upon the
testimony of DR.. VIM. Wetherill, Mr..
Schulhaus' physician, and others, the
jury rendered verdict that he came to
his death by his own hand while tempo
rarily insane.
Mr.. Schulhaus was native of Germany,
and came to this country when a young
man. He soon settled in this town, and
has since lived here continuously. He
was one of the warmest Of friends and
was ever ready to show his friendship by
deeds as well as words. He had received
an excellent education and was o man OF
more than ordinary ability. He was an
earnest Mason and was one of the leading
members of Amwell Lodge, No. 10, OF
this city, which be served as Master two
or three terms. He had also been Trea.
surer and Tax Receiver of the city, and
held other public offices.
His funeral, last Saturday, was attend
ed by Amwell Lodge, and the Masonic
burial service was performed at the grave
A large number Of Mssons from neighbov-
ing lodges were present, many Of whom
had long been bis warm personal friends
A delegation from the Union Fire Co., Of
this city, of which the deceased was Q
prominent member, also was present al
the funeral.

Two were shot. but the third got away.
One of the robbers, named John Wilson,

He is so badly wounded that he cannot

GRANT PARISH,
A Paradise for Farm
ers, and Home for
Immigrants.
Lands Above All Overflow,
and Unsurpassed for
Fertility.
A Country Where Billiards are Un-
known, and Balmy Weather
Prevails Ten Months in
the Year.
Navigation and Waterways I'M
equaled, Railroad Facilities
Unsurpassed, ExtraOr-
dinarily Healthy.

Grant parish is situated almost
exactly in the center of Louisiana,
having a front on Red river of
nearly forty miles. The N. o. Pa
cific railroad runs along the west
bank of Red river, within from one
to five miles of the western edge
of the parish, for a distance of
twenty miles. In addition to this
road, in few years we will have
the Louisiana North and South
road running directly through the
center of the parish; the Little
Rock and Alexandria road, run
ming almost through the center of
the parish; and the Alexandria and
Pine Bluff road, running through
the southeastern corner of the par
ish. With these railroads, which
will undoubtedly be built in very
few years, Grant will have railroad
facilities unsurpassed by any par
ish in the State.
With nearly forty miles front ON
Red river on the west, and about
the same front on Little river on
the east, we enjoy exceptional advan-
tages in the way of navigation.
Red river is navigable for steam
boats generally all the year round,
although it sometimes gets SO low
that the boats have to suspend a
few weeks in midsummer. Little
river is usually navigable six or
eight months in the year, to the
junction of Bayou Castor, which
intersects Little river a few miles
above the northeastern corner of
Grant parish. In fact we doubt if
there is another parish in the State
as well supplied with clear running
streams of water as Grant Our
fishing grounds are extensively
patronized by the Rod and Gun
club of Alexandria, and many per-
sons come a long distance from
other parts of the State to fish in
our celebrated trouting streams.
We have Iatt lake, into which runs
Iatt creek, then Nantachie lake, out
of which runs Nantachie bayou.
Then comes Hudson creek, Clear
creek, Gray's creek, Fish creek
Mill creek, Bear creek, Big creek
and Black creek. Next we have
Bayous D'Lartago, Rigolette, Darro
and Doggy bayou. In addition to
the streams mentioned, there are
numerous spring branches of
smaller nature, in nearly all of
which fish abound in great num-
bers. All of these streams are
clear running water, supplied by
innumerable bubbling springs, and
their flow furnishes an inexhausti-
BILE supply of cool drinking water.
healthful and invigorating to man
and beast. Beside fish, game of all
kinds are plentiful, such as deer,
turkeys, rabbits, squirrels, coons,
opossoms, cartridges, etc. In the
winter wild ducks are plentiful,
and frequently wild geese.
In order to be free from bias
in commenting upon the mer-
its of Grant, we shall confne our
selves to facts set forth in Prot
Hilgard's Report on the Cotton
Production of the State of Louis
lana, with a Discussion OF the
