More Lawlessness.

Lawlessness is again heard here and
there in the parishes, but lately it is not
the helpless mere who is regulated, bu,
wnitp people, and those who, apparently
have no acking to resist by force the
fiends. The daily papers bring the news
of the Jews stores and business houses
being fired into in East Carroll parish,
and the following warning served Oh
them mo Jews after the lst. Of January.
Delhi warning. Fire and lead will make
you leave"
These lawless acts are always per-
petrated upon inOffensive and helpless
people, they ar too coward TO tackle
those who can show them the muzzle OF
a Winchester rifle and treat them to q
dose Of lead.
The time has come for all good citi-
zens reflect upon W at has taken plac.'
in the pa and what may happen In the
future. Strangers who have no backing
are not safe, they are subject to the same
treatment received by the Jews at Delhi
and in East Carroll.
We call for stop OF those lawless at
tacks upon inoffensive person. and 1t Is
the duty Of the good element of the state
to stop il even if it has to be stopped at
the end of the Winchester rifle. IL the
state author tiles cannot put an end to
that stata of things, then it rests with
the law abiding people to protect them
selves against such awless attacks as
have been chronicled in the different par
ishes.

her foot against carelessly laid gas pipe
and almost pitched into his arms. He
put out his hand and she caught hold of
it quickly The thing did not take half
a minute "Grazie," said she, lightly,
thinking of course that he was one of the
regular Italian chorus. Then she passed
on to her dressing room followed by her
maid bearing her train, and her aunt,
who had just throw n a wrap across her
shoulders. Rush blushed scarlet under
his warriors beard. He was afraid the
men standing around would hear the
humping Of his heart against his tin
axmor. When no one was looking be
raised the back Of the hand she had
touched to his lips and kissed it, and
then he wondered how he could have
been such fool.
When theopera was over, Rush thought
it no more than polite for him to accom-
pany Mime. Celia and her daughter home;
but when he went to look for them he
found that they had gone as soon as the
dancing was finished. He was not sorry,
for now he could inger around the place
and perhaps see Helen again. As he
stood by the door leading into the audi
torium, he saw half the wealth and fash
ion of the city pass through on its way
to the prima donna's dressing room to
congratulate her upon her great success.
He could catch an occasional glimpse Of
her, standing there in her classic robes,
veritable Helen, giving her beautiful
hand to this one and a gracious word to
the other. Rush felt like throwing him
self at her feet, or (ike another Paris)
bearing her off in his arms. He watched
the men as they talked and laughed with
her. until he was beside himself with
jealousy. He recognized West Hastings
at once, having seen him at the stage
door the week before, and felt certain
that the confidence Of bis manner in ad-
dressing the prima donna was the as
surance Of proprietorship. Uncle Light

hair matted on his brow, and the per-
spiration running down his horid cheeks.
