Deputy Sheriff R. A. Frost. on Thurs
day evening, at the railroad depot,
arrested a MAJ by the name of Walker
alias Taylor, alias Tyler, and placed
him in the parish Jail. The sheriff
received a telephone from Labadieville
to arrest this man, who had stolen q
peddlers' jewelry case and contents, as
a steamboat was passing at that place,
and rushed on board before the theft
was discovered. On arriving here he
had gone to the depot, placed his box
inside the depot, keeping it hid until
the train was ready to depart.
Tie telephone, however, was quicker
than a steamboat, and the man OF
many m was locked mp. That
same night, he tried to break out of
Jail, but he didn't

On Tomorrow, February %, will be
the anniversary of General Washing
toms birth day. He was born in 1882,
one hundred and fifty-nine years ago.
He died in 1899, not quite 6S years of
age.
George Washington was undoubtedly
n of the great men of the world
great as a citizen, great as a statesman,
and great as a soldier. His fame rests
on no imaginary foundation, but is
built upon actual merit that neither
time nor oblivion can erase or obscure.
To his great genius as a soldier the
people of this country " more
than any other for the success of
the war of the revolution, and to him
as much as to any man are they in
debted for the constitution and laws
under which this union was formed
into practical operation.

That there is always danger of
overfows in lower Louisiana is a
certain fact. The latest reports how
ever do not look so badly. Although
the upper Ohio river is too full for
comfort, yet the Cumberland and
Tennessee rivers are falling, and,
unless new rains come to fill those
streams, the rise from the upper Ohio
will not be serious when it reaches
Cairo. The water at Cairo is a little
above danger line, but there is a fall
at Vicksburg. The Red and the Ar
kansas are both on the decline.
Unless fresh floods fall from the
heavens the outlook does not appear
to be very threatening. Upon the
wholeit is much better than it was at
this period last year. There is room
for apprehension yet, still indications
might be worse than they are. The
levees are generally reported to be in
good condition, and, unless a very
high river comes there will probably
be no breaks anywhere.
