The Democrat gives ex-
preston to vehement and yirtuous
indignation against Capt. III. p.
Wells for an nnconth and vulgar
allusion made in an anti lottery
speech. This reminds us very
much of the old adage about the
pot calling the kettle black. While
we are with Mr.. Wells in his stand
against the lottery, we must con-
demn the use of such harsh and
unnecessary illusions In the pres
ence of ladies; but it is really re-
freshing to behold the editors of
the I'D. stand on the balcony of
their glass castle and shy stones at
Mr.. Wells for his excessive i'm
modesty! Within the last few
months we have known fathers of
families to carefully refrain from
taking the Times-Democrat and
other New Orleans newspapers into
their families, because their col
umns were teeming every day with
minute details of the most disgust
ing crime.
The lottery is a bastard, sought
to be foisted upon Louisiana; and,
while we may deprecate the un-
fortunate time, place and terms in
which Mr.. Wells expressed this |
fact, the character and position of
the lottery is most aptly and truth
fully portrayed by the use of this
ancouth and debasing expletive.

A Priest in Protestant Pew.
On last Sunday morning at Le-
Sage's hall Father Menard, of Al
exandria, celebrated high mass in
Colfax for the first time. After
this service was over he announced
that a Catholic Sunday school
would he organized at the hall du-
ring the afternoon. Upon being in
formed that the Methodist Sunday
school would also meet during the
afternoon, and that his presence in
this heretical circle would be ap-
preciated, he promptly signifed
his acceptance of the invitation
and promised to be on hand.
At the appointed hour of $3.50 he
was present, together with twenty or
more of his Catholic flock, and re-
mained in respectful attention
throughout the reading Of the
Scriptural lesson, the singing of 8
hymn and prayer. Being asked if
he would address the school short

First Communions at Paramount,

First COmmuniOns at FafrmOunt.
The week just past was one long
to be remembered by a number o1
our Catholic young people, it being
the occasion of their first HOLY
Communion. A Retreat of three
days, ending on the evening Of
Wednesday, May 14th, conducted
by Rev. Father Menard, of Alex
andria, was the immediate prepar-
alton for the great event. On the
morning of Thursday, the Feast of
the Ascension of our Lord, there
approached the Table, and received
for the FIRST time their Lord and
Saviour under the sacramental
wells, the following young people:
Misses Pamela and Feline Layssard,
Mary and Louise Teal, Lodoisca
Lacour, Belle Lemee, and Clothilde
Hickman, Mrs. j. B. Lacour, Mas
ters Hamilton, Kenneth and Robert
Lee Hickman, and Winnie and
Celestine johnson (the two last
colored).
Our little chapel was we'll filed,
and beautiful and appropriate
music was rendered by the choir
under the direction of that ac-
complished artist, Miss Bessie
Shearer. The remarks of Father
Menard were very affecting and
brought tears to many eyes. In
the afternoon the services consisted
of renewal of the baptismal vows,
read by Master Hamilton Hickman,
and the act of conservation to the
Blessed Virgin, read by Miss Mary |
Teal, followed by the Benediction
of the Blessed Sacrament.
