TNHERE'S a ripple of
Il excitement in the
Lace department
now over the cut that has
been made in prices of
dress nets and drapery
laces. You will do we'll to
transfer a fragment of at
tention from the absorbing
subject of Christmas buy
ing to this Lace offering of
ours. We are sacrificing
some of the choicest and
richest goods in our entire
stock, simply because for
some reason or other, say
the unreasonable wealth
er-the business in this de-
partment has not been up
to what it ought, and we
are unwilling to carry SO
many laces to the January
stock-taking.
Three pieces Of satin
stripe figured French nets
which have been 5000 per
yard are now $500. Two
pieces of all over lace at
$3.50, have been $500;
and five other lots at pro-
portionate reductions.
Considering the fact that
these goods were never
more desirable than now,
that laces for over dresses
and evening costumes are
the most in favor of all
thin fabrics, this is a bar
gain that deserves consid-
Grafton.

Regulators Arrested.

During the night of Thursday the 18th
inst, an armed mob appeared at the
door OF Mr.. Duplechein, in the parish OF
st. Landry and demanded to see cOlored
woman named Sylyanie Leblanc; OH
being called she appeared in the room
When she saw the regulators she begged
Mr.. Duplechein to protect her, and at the
same time catching hold of him.
At this point. says special to the Pic
ayune, the regulators rushed in the room
and grabbed the woman. who was still
holding on to Mr.. Duplechein when a
struggle followed. The struggle CONT
nued until the regulators dragged the
woman on the gallery. In scuffling to-
ward the front door, the regulators hav-
ing dragged both out, Duplechein grab
bed his shot gun. and when the regula-
tors reached the ground, dragging the
woman, Duplechein's gun snapped the
first time, but his gun fred the second
barrel and one of the regulators fell.
This was the shot that broke regu-
latOr Gerasin Meche's leg.
The regulators then opened fire on Du-
plechein with shotguns riddling him
from his waist up. About this time the
regulators fred SLOTS from either a rifle
or large revolver, as the balls that pier
ced the walls and were found in the
house were "A calibre.
Mr.. Duplechein's wounds, though Sc
riOus will not prove fatal.
This occurrence is denounced by all
our people. Duplechein is one of the
best citizens OF that neighbOrhOOd and
man Of means.
II is fortunate that the rifle balls which
pierced the walls did not strike the child
in the bed.
Too much credit cannot be accorded to
our efficient Sheriff Fontenot for the in
telligent and effective manner in which
he worked out this dastardly act and for
bringing the would he assasins to JUS
tice. II is by such diligence as exhibit
ted by our worthy Sheriff that these acts
OF lawlessness will be stopped. Our peo-
pie feel that the sheriff has done his
whole duty. Mr.. FOntenOt was accom-
panied by Messrs. c. +. Garland, John
Monchinveg and Lee Stage, his efficient
deputies, Ii is understood that the She
riff has sufficient evidence to warrant
more arrests. which will shortly follow.
