Jean Jacques Roman.

The residents Of Thibodaux and
Lafourche 25 to 35 years ago, Will re-
member him whose name appears above
and who, on March %. 1888, passed
away peacefully and calmly as an au-
tumn leaf, in his home in Carrollton.
La, surrounded by his family and
friends.
The years of the patriarchs of old
had whitened his hairs with the frOsts
of 81 winters, and like the patriarchs
of old, after receiving the sacramento
of his church, of whose teachings his
life had been an exempliticatiOn, he
went hence III peace with his Maker,
and with ali mankind.
The deceased Was born in Opclousas
in 1907, of which town his father was
also II native.
He graduated in the city ofBalimole,
studied law under that great lawyer
Etienne Mazereau, and commenced
the practice Of his profession in the
parish of st. James and soon
occupied ~ prominent position at the
bar. subsequently he was appointed
Parish Judge of the parish ofSt. James
by Coy. \. Il. Roman. He also serv-
ed many years as a school director and
Superintendent of Public Education.
The decreased removed to Thibodaux
some 80 odd years ago, and was Dis
trict Attorney. and then District Judge
! of the Judicial District i'll which La
tourche WAS comprised.
The deceased was a man of stern
integrity. sc%rupulnnsly honest and sin
cere in his convictions, and when his
mind was once made upon any sub
ject, neither argument o sophistry
could influence him.
As Il speaker he was bold and I'M
petuous. and when interested i'll a sub
iect, words flowed from him like a
mountain torrent, apparently carrying
Everything before it.
AS il citizen and neighbor he was
aenial kind and patriotic, as parent
devoted and indulgent.
This venerable man retained his
to the last, and catered int
the valley Of the shadoWuf1e3th, witt
mind clear and preparedsl0 f tlfe quie1
Irest that awaited him under the shadow
of the trees in Eternity. NG..n

Democratic Meeting.

Firemen's Hall was filed. on Satur-
day night, with the enthusiastic Demo-
cracy of LafOurche to hear Gov. Nc
Emery, Gen. Nichols, Senator Gibson
and other speakers, who had come out
here for the purpose of addressing the
people OF the great issues now agita-
ting the minds of the masses.
p. LoriO, Esq. called the meeting
to order. and asked Judge Blake to
preside, and Major S. I. Grisamore to
act rs secretary. A large number Of
leading and influential citizens were
seated upon the stand, as vice presi-
dents.
Quite a number of ladies occupied
chairs in the audience and by their
graces and smiles infused enthusiasm
into the hearts Of both listeners and
speakers.
The Protector Band furnished mu-
sic OF the occasion.
The opening speech was made by
the grand old war horse, Sam McEnery,
who was received with laundering APP
plause.
The Governor did not mince matters,
but entered into his speech with force,
energy and eloquence. The manner
in which his remarks were received,
convinced every II that his ideas
! were in perfect unison with those Of
his hearers.
McEnery had many warm friends
before he came here. He had still
more when he left.
He was followed by Senator Gibson,
who after some pleasant preliminary
"reminiscences of his former home in
Lafourrhe. discussed the tariff question
III a practical and sensible name and
showed up plainly the EumbuGgery of
protection as applied to the South by
the Republican party. Gen. Nichols
then took the stand and met with the
usual reception he always receives III
this town. but owing to his enfeebled
condition was able Only to counsel all
Democrats to do their duty, and not
allow the Slate government to again
become a prey to its former %dcstroyers.
Mr.. w. {. Pipes, candidate for State
treasurer, made a few remarks on the
duties appertaining to the incumbent
of that office.
MessrS. l.. d. Moore, Z. A. O'Sullivan
and Lewis Guion each made short but
earnest and effective speeches.
On sunday Il meeting was lHld al
ST. Mary's Pamela Church that was
numerously attended, and addressed
by Gen. Nichols and other speakers.
The camp fires are kindled in La
tonrche and rs April II closes, the De
mocracy of this parish will roll up a
handsome majority for good govern
ment and the Democratic nominees.

Poison Of Expired Air.

Recently two distinguished French
physicians, Brown-Sequard and D'Arson-
val. have been experimenting, and have
obtained results which are thought to
prove that expired air contains another
poison. additional to those of carbonic acid
and ammonia, to which mainly the danger
Gus nature of expired air must be re-
ferred. The exact nature of this poison
has not yet been ascertained. but the ex-
periments cannot be due either to carbonic
acid or to ammonia
By passing expired air, whether of
human beings or of animals, through
water, a solution was obtained which, in
jected into the veins of animals. invari-
ably gave rise to the same symptoms

U5-a:s, when only the street cleaners are
at work. in Chicago as web as in other
large cities, you can sometimes notice
people of all ages and stations of life walk
down to the lake or to the river. They
look pale ans weary, their hair Is con-
fused. their clothes in disorder, they look
as IL they had Just come out of their bed.
They are gamblers who have lost all their
possessions in one night. or embezzlers
who have spent the money of their en-
ployers in one great debauch, or thieves
who are escaping from the police. There
they stand at the edge of the water and
sigh. Yesterday they were happy and
free from all care, today dreadful end
awaits them.
The darkness vanishes more and more,
the city awakens, its noise becomes louder
and louder. They sit down and let their
legs hang over the surface of the water.
Tears fill their eyes. they sob quietly.
1t is SO difficult to die. especially when
one is young. The sun has risen high
upon the horizon. People hurry down
town from all directions. 1t strikes 8. 8
oclock-now, perhaps, the embezzlement
has been discovered, the police are being
notified - another hour passes quickly
away There is no hope left. They look
around again and again, then suddenly
they shut their eyes and glide down into
the water. They think it is all over, but
somebody comes to their rescue. When
they are brought ashore and they regain
consciousness, they send forth shouts Of
joy. Whatever may come, disgrace or
imprisonment-'Than God they repeat,

striped suits peesented blythe city gov
eminent lasted, while others urge tin as
the best material This discussion en-
ables newspaper men to air. their wit. but
it really seems unnecessary. The city
government presented given number OF
newsboys with uniforms, with the under
standing that the boys would replace
them at their own expense when worn
out. Those suits have long since served
their time and been discarded. and not a
single one has been replaced by its owner.
Unless the city government intends to
clothe outright the urchins who sell
papers in the streets, our contemporaries
are wasting their time in discussing the
kind of material that should be used for
their uniforms, for there is no legal way
of compelling the boys to buy the clothes
that may be designated as proper for them
by the authorities. To deprive a boy of
the right to earn an honest living because
no cannot or will not dress in prescribed
manneris not practicable in free coun-

thing about Brazilian woman Is her
voice. She never goes shopping. the

she makes her selections at home. Sheis

With ev'ry seasons round a new face wears
The mighty world that is our small lfe's glass
And stir, as flows the tide Of JOY OF sorrow,
''To-morrowI" do we sigh, and yet Tomorrow
Comes April with her sudden CLEANS and giooms.
Her blue bright nooos Of laughter and OF show

The sun fecked shade beneath white orchard
blooms,
Her wealth Of primrose and Of cowslip flowers;
And yet, for this larsesse, from May to borrow
Full fam are we, and murmur still, Tomorrow"
Now summers here. Warm skies are DER us
bent;
White sheaves OF lilies rise against the blue;
The very airs are hot and indolent,
Breathing the rose walks they have wandered
through. -

Yet must we sigh, unsatisfed, Tomorrow"

The Cat and the Dog,

The mastery of herself which a cat
shows when. having been caught in Pc
sition from which there is no escape, She
calmly sits down to face out the threats
of dog, is marvellous thing. Every
body has seen kitten on a street door
step attacked by dog ten times her size,
as apparently self possessed as if she were
in her mistress lap. If she turns tail and
runs down the street she is lost; the dog
will have sure advantage Of her. Even
as it is if he could get up courageenough
to seize her on the spot he would be able
to make short work of her. 1t is a case
of life and death; but the whole air and
attitude of the cat is one of pure and con-
fident bravado you dare not touch me,
and you know it," is what her position
tells the dog.
But she Is intensely on her guard, In
spite Of her air of perfect content. Her
legs, concealed under her fur, are ready
for spring; her claws are unsheRthed;
