Railroad Meeting.

heh'S made IN tie parish papers
there was Il meeting Of the Stock
holders OF the L. n. & $. r, R
he'd IN Homer on Wed nesday
the 10Th inst. A majority of the
pa'd up stockholders were present
and took part in the meeting
Among the stockholders were
1en' Stuart l.. Woodfor,l, general
attorney Of The road, and Joseph
L. Howell treasurer both Of New
York. After q discussion of all
matters pertaining to the business
OF the meeting, by resolution
unanimously passed it was decid-
ell to sell ali the property rights
and franchises belonging to the
l.. n. Dc 5. company to the Loui-
slana & North Western Company.
This latter company agrees to
assume all obligations and liabili-
ties that previously Gevolved on
the old company. 1t was under
stood that the new company will
issue certificates of stock to all par
ties who pay up their notes winch
will fall due the first OF March.
The only thing unfair we see in
the matter Is, that the number OF
shares IN the corporation have
been Increased to such a large
number until the shares, of the
citizens of Claiborne and Bien-
vile who made contributions to
the amount of $4,000, have been
practically absorbed. According
to our understanding it cost about
$l20,O00 to build and equip the
road from here to Gibbs. The
citizens then who contributed the
$4,000 would be the equitable
owners OF one third of Tic paid up
stock in this road, for reallylAele
are but 1900 shares.
There must necessarily be some
fictitious or waterod stock in ll!is
company. We are told that the
$500 shares arise from The fact,
that stock was issued on basis Of
, $4,000 q mile, and there being
Is miles of road 1t would have
taken $4,000 to built it, bat the
facts are that not one half Of that
amount was used for this purpose.
Hence our conclusion that there
must be some waLcred or fictitious
stock which help constitute these
5000 shares. Then with the lights
before us it looks something like
the citizens will lose the $4,000,
except as to the benefits which we
all derive from the railroad. Upon
the whole it is great deal better
70" IFS to lose the $4,000 and get
The benefits Of the road, than to
have been deprived of The road
ami kept our $4,000. We have
been led to make the above
observations for the reason that
il occurred to us that the com
pany was not dealing altogether
fair.
The new company Lave cur best
wishes and we hope they will |
reach Alexandria on tic South
an Kansas City on the North BY |
this time next year. AS they have
plenty Of means at their command
we see no reason why !hey should
not complete the road IN this time
il they 80 desire.

A Trick OF The Trade.

There is cruel story in circulation
concerning q certain teacher in one of
the public schools who has been highly
eompimented because of the success
attending the examination of her pin
pills. 1t was noticed that her class of
boys seemed to be able to solve all the
problems. When question was ask
ed. every boys hand in the class was
raised. The principal of the school
was putting the questions and the
teacher would call on pupil to rake
the answer Although more than
score of questions were asked, in no
instant was an improper answer Civ
Ell.
The principal was so pleased at the
result that he made special mention of
Miss Dash's proficiency as teacher in
each of the class-roOms that he visited.
Probably envy was caused by the
fact that in no other classroom did
the pupils seem to be as well up in
their studies. One Of the teachers
whose pupils did not acqnt them
selves very creditably, made an inves-
tigation, and by Il judicious use ofcan-
dy succeeded in gaining the confidence
of one of the boys under Miss Dash's
care.
Now Johnny" said she, show is it
that all you boys know the ans xers?"
awe don't all know" said Johnnie
mnnching caramel.
"But YOU all put up your hands as
if you did"
Miss Dash tells us to put up our
hand when the question is asked. We
boys who don't know the answer put
up our left hands, and the boys who
know the answerput their right hands,
and then Miss Dash only asks the
boys who have a right hand up.
