 At the lower end of Beardsley park, opposite the corner of Noble avenue and the proposed new street, is a curious ex- ample of the freaks of Nature. It is a huge stone or, rather, a great aggrega- tion of millions of stones, cemented by il kind of coarse white gravel, apparently, l into solid mass, firm as if hewn gran ite. Each stone in this mass perfectly resembles a water-worn pebble. And yet it was found on MT Beardsley's farm in Michigan, where there is not as much as q suspicion of stone in the soil. It is a great natural curiosity and the only ex- planation is that it is conglomerate remnant of the glacial era, brought down from unknown lands on vast inland ice foes.
 Mir and Mrs Charles Turner of Sher- man have visited friends here.
 c. w. Tator is building barn on the property recently purchased on North Main street.
 Bradley Nichols and sons, who recent ly bought the property of the late Father Synott lying east of Toilsome hill and joining North Main street near Ansor Hawley, are cutting new street, which connects North Main street with Madi son street. It will be opened just above NIT Hawley's.

 From 40 to 50 pounds of butter are now made per day at the creamery and no in crease of consequence is anticipated at present. Next Spring, when farmers have many new milch cows, it is hoped that the amount may be largely increas- ed, even to the full capacity of the creamery, POO pounds. s'It is q question of time" said an officer, sand, in my opinion, only a short time will be requir- ed to prove that the creamery will be a success.

Gen Gibson's resolution offered in
the United States Senate on the 18th
inst, for the appointment o. a COM
mittee to report upon the trade rela-
lions between the United States and
Mexico, viii not prove frnilless by
reason Of the Senate deciding against
the propriety Of its present consider
alton upon the theory that the extra
session should be limited strictly to
the business Of passing upon asxecn-
tive appointments. The resolution
has become a matter of public dis
eussiou, out of which will grow bet
ter and more general knowledge Of the
subject and consequent good results,
Besides this 1t has secured a certain
status in the Senate, and will most
surely receive favorable attention
when the regular session comes on.
In explanation of it General Gibson
said:
81 offered the resolution because the
people of my State and the country
adjacent to Mexico are very much
Interested in the subject of increasing
our trade relations with the Mexican
people. There are already thirteen
steamers playing between the city Of
New Orleans and the ports south Of
Us, constantly occupied in the carry
ing trade between that city and Mex
can aud Central American seaporls.
The chief product is fruit, but we ais"
import a great deal of coffee from
Mexico. Our imports from Mexico
amount to over $3O,OOO,OOO year,
our exports to only about $4,000, 600;
and it seemed TO me, therefore, thai
there are some matters in our trade
that required attention at the hand
of the American Congress. That the
state Of this trade is not satisfactory
all must admit
"We have large population Of
people Of Spanish descent Irving in the
city Of New Orleans who are accI-
mated, who are acquainted with the
people Of Mexico and Central America,
and who have trade and personal re-
iaLlOns with them. Naturally enough,
therefore, | responded to this inleresr

We can See no reason to doubt the
Caddo returns Shreveport Las been
growing in the past eight years, and
al Increase of 24.1 per cent. is neither
impossible or improbable The others
are undoubtedly suspicious ST James
is impossible. 1t is planting paIIsh,
without any important works or manu-
iacturers, and it is lncOnceIvable that
it should have doubled in nine years.
If the rest OF its population has grown
! as fast as the children, it contains to-
day 80, lOJ people; and this is out of
question; 10 one will believe it. Nor,
| frankly, is it conceivable that the
| school children of Union have increased
81 per cent in this short period. Union
and CaiCasIeu had nearly the same pUpu-
| latlOn in 1880 aud about the same uum-
Der of school children. No parish has
received more Immigrants or doomed
forward more than the latter; and 1t is
not conceivable that Union should
have, as it claims, over 60 per cent
more children OF a school age to-day
than its sister parish of Southern Loui-
sluna. 1t gets more than its share of the
school fund, aud CalGasieu. in conse-
| quenCe less than it is entitled to- "
The length of the communication and
accompanying editorial precludes the
possibility OF reproducing them in their
entirety in the ECHO, though it is mat
ter OF considerable importance and
would demand immediate attention il
it rested only i'll the fact that some
parishes are drawing funds greatly in
excess of their proportion, while others,
notably Calcasieu, receive far less than
they are justly entitled to. This is not
an example furnished by Louisiana
alone, other States have had the same
trouble and have applied effective RENE
dies. The Times Democrat makes sug-
gestiOns in this connection, which we
quote:
'"Ihis must be stopped. 1t is useless
to say that a palpable fraud like this
cannot be remedied. The ASSESSORS
must make proper returns. The SUPER

STATE SCHOOL FUND AND
PRO RATA on PARISHES.


The Tfmes-Dsm0erat took occasion 20
treat in glowing terms Of oommsnda-
ton The successful management and
excellent c1ndition Of the public schools
Of Iberia parish which lad the effect
Of drawing a communication over the
initials @. L. A., made pnblieatiOn Of
in that paper of the oath inst, charging
that such exeellence and success were
achieved by dishonest means. The
correspondent, expressing surprise and
indignation that such practices should
obtain i'm the face of patent facts, pre-
ssnts comparative statistics ofaggregate
population and scholastic children,
from which he deduees that the maxi
mum percentage is "A Or Is, as against
liberals exhibit of s. per cent. The
population Of Iberia is given as less
than II, 900, and the parish has for
years been drawing money from the
school funds of the State upon fraud
lent return OF 9.263 children of educa-
bic ages, says G L. A, who chRrac-
terises it as shameful plumber Of the
States common school fund" But the
Echo cannot do better than quote the
closing sentences of the oommunica-
ton:
From this you nee that the cnmpli-
ments bestowed Tuesday were IN
merited and undsseTVed, and shUnld
now be followed by well merited cen
sure and condemnation. And whilst
you take Iberia in hand be kind enough
TO extend your Investigations and edi-
torial thunders to q dozen or more of
otheI sinners aud pIunderers, notably
TO Union parish, which for years has
been drawing school money from the
State Treasury upon fraudulent per
centage of children to population of 81,
and to st. James and Caddo, with per
centages Of 50 and 4G. can conceive
of nothing more despicable and in
famous than the theft of school
funds, and hence I earnestly solicit
your efforts, not only for n ter
mination of the robbery, but also for
a return to the State Treasury by the
guilty parishes of the thousands of dol
lars 80 shamefully stolen"
In responding the Times. Demacrat
says;
1.-The complaint here made OF inc
quality and injustice is one for the con
sideration of the entire State-because
if Iberia, Union, Caddo and st james
get more than their share OF the school
fund, it is at the expense of other
parishes. Louisiana provides little
enough for its public schools-not SUI
fcient to support them properly. II,
then, the amount that should go to
