A count OF the tickets by the Gate Com
mittee after the good days work was done
showed that 652 tickets had been taken in,
including $S2.75 in cash at the box Office.
But the gentlemen managing the affair
had previously placed large number Of
tickets in various business houses, many
OF which may have lbeen sold to parties
who did not surrender them at the gate,
ladies and gentlemen who bought merely
to help the cause along, and had no idea
OF attending upon the choice program
OF sport provided. At least $500
will be realized for the cty's wards,
the chances are II will be more.
Manager T.. G. LalIache hould feel proud
over the outpouring. and he certainly

About o'clock pm. the Christian
Brothers College Brass Band, with its
director, Prof. Paul Schneider, reported at
the Cotton Exchange for volunteer duty,
and enlivened the crowds collected in the
vicinity with stirring music. In this way
many who were until that time undecided
over whether TO 20 out or not, were
tnrned in the direction OF the park, aud
swelled the attendance TO ilattering pro-
portions. II was o'clock pm. before
the lengthy program was begun, and three
hours were consumed in its execution.
The Merchants Zouaves, with sixteen
men in line, besides the two sergeants, I'M
der command OF Capt. L. Kit Deflrey and
Lieut. Sawtelle, were the first TO COM
mence. For fifteen minutes and exhibit
ton drill, including the most difficult
points in the school OF the company, firing
OF blank cartridges and bayonet exercises,
was gone through with. The young but
well trained and confident soldiers, went
through the various movements like old
veterans on the competitive drill, and were
moro than once vociierousy applauded,
the ladies especially maniiesting their de-
light.
Next came a lawn tennis game between
the Memphis and Chickasaw clubs The
former side was Messrs. John NJ. Richard.
son and Abraham Frank, the latter Mcssrs
Frank w. Scruges and Dwight NJ. Arm
strong. Mr.. Irving Med. Massey oilici-
ated as umpire. The players lost no time
In unnecessary display, but went ut the
business in hand with solid purpose.
After they had afforded the uninitialed
spectators an entertaining lesson for half
an hour or more II was necessary TO dis
continue the game, in order that the
features TO come might be given a show
ing. II was decided draw.
Following this game was n slow bicycle
race, 100 yards. in which five Of the city's
experts took part.
Another selection by tho band was then
given in good style, while the rival base
ball teams got themselves in readiness.

BURKE'S BABY-BOND THEFTS.
After Investigation the Grand Jury Fixes the
AmOSntat $I2O, 000-A Reward to Be offered.

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 24-The grand jury
have submitted their report on the baby
bonds" steal, in which they say. There is
no doubt that in February, 1885. the then
Treasurer of State. +. A. Burke. ordered
from the State Treasury at Baton Rouge
almost all the baby bonds there held for
the purpose of exchange; that he received
them in this city, and after receiving them
here placed them on the market; some he
placed ms collateral to secure loans and
others he sold outright. A large number
are now in the hands of citizens of this city.
The number paid in for taxes will probably
not eAceed s. 600. We feel justified in esti-
mating the illegal issue of these bonds at
S420.OOO."
Two indictments were found in blank,
one for embezzlement. the other for forgery.
They are presumably against ex-Treasurer
Burke.
Attorney-general Rogers. in conversation
with q reporter yesterday. said: This ends
the work of the grand jury in the bond
fraud cases. Suits will now be begun in
the civil court for the recovery of money
lost to the State, and the prosecution
against those indicted will be pushed for
ward. i am of the opinion. at the next ses-
sion of the Legislature. n liberal sum will
be offered as n reward for the apprehension
of ex-Treasurer Burke, should he not be
found in the jurisdiction of the court be-
fOfe that time.r

LOUISIANA REGULATORS.
Conviction of Two Members of a Notorious
Gang of Mounted Night-Riders.

OPELoUsAs. La. Nov. 24.-The jury, at
IL o'clock last night. in the case of the State
va. Arvillien Beard and Charles Arab, W
of the Coulee-croche regulators. re-
turned a verdict of guilty, without
capital punishment. The case had
been Oh trial four days, and the
verdict is generally approved. This is the
first conviction of Regulators in this State.
The offense committed by these Regulators
was substantially as follows: About four
months ago a cOlored woman living on Mr..
Dupleichin's place, on the COulee-croche.
sued a white man in the neighbOrhood. and
obtained Judgment. Not wishing to appeal
the case. the person sued concluded
to nave the woman regulated. A gang of
mounted men went to Dupleichin's place
after midnight, and called the woman up
and were taking her away forcibly, when
she appealed to her employer for pro-
lection. Dupleichin fired on the regulators,
seriously wOunding one of them. and was
in turn shot by the regulators and severely
wounded. The regulators hastily released
the woman. but this led to the identity of
the participants, two of whom have just
been convicted. as stated above.

n MATTERS.

A Precedent for Arkell's Proposition to Put
Advertisements on Postage Stamps.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. A.-W. j. Arkeli's
proposition to pay 100000 q year for the
privilege of having an advertisement On
the back of postage stamps is not without
precedent. Many years g the stamps in
England contained advertisements, and
sometimes the British government went SO
far as to permit an advertisement to show
through the face of the postage stamp.
Third Assistant Postmaster-general Hazen
says that only last May a syndicate of Aus
tralian capitalists offered f50,00 0 a year,
for a period of five years, for the
privilege of having an advertisement on
the back of our postage stamps. and the
offer of Arkell and the one of the syndicate
are the only propositions ever made this
government for advertising of this charac-
ter. There is no fear that the United States
government will ever accept any offer of
this kind. The revised statutes forbid it.
Then, there is no necessity of or excuse for
1t. The government has more money al
ready than il can find a practical use for,
and the people would condemn any arrange
ment OF this kind. 1t would certainly be a
great advertisement for any business to
have simply a dainty little monogram or a
combination of letters Indicative of some
article for sale. Every person in the world
would soon learn what was meant by the
characters.
