John and Wade Fielder, Half-Brothers,
Executed for Numbering a Neighbor.
RUsK, Tex, Oct. 10. There was a
double hanging here at o'clock Friday
afternoon. John and Wade Fielder
were placed on the scaffold in the Jail
yard, and after short prayer by the
minister in attendance, the drop fell
and the condemned men were pro-
nounced dead in ten minutes.
The Felder's were half-brothers and
the crime for which they suffered the
penalty was the murder of neighbor
named Yonce Thompson nearly year
ago
Thompson was witness against the
Felders IN trial some weeks previous to
the shooting, and it is believed he was
murdered for revenge, John Fielder ac-
knowledged firing bullet into Thomp-
sons house, but claimed his alf-brother,
Wade, was innocent.

IL am weary, dear mother, of these
troubles-weary unto death, but 1t is all
in good cause, and, with help and the
assistance of my friends, l am confident
of result.
"The statements of my enemies, so
often made regarding my relations with

calumnies they shoot out at me from
every bush. Let them pass. They will
die from their own venom. Indeed, il
would be dignifying them to notice their
existence"

At the primary election in New
Orleans last week, Mr.. A. Bald
win, Jr., whose very name is the
synonym for Republicanism from
one end of the State to the other,
and whose antecedents are known
as such, was challenged. and he SIM
ply took oath that he was a Demo
crat, and was allowed to vote. He
then supplemented his action with
the statement that the person who
denied his democracy was liar
This little episode is chuckled over
with great gIee by the lottery stri-
kers, but all the same they propose
to require life long Democrats to
swear they will abide any and al
nominations they may foist upon
the party by the aid of such mis-
.erably poor material as this.
We trust that all true Democrts
in Grant parish who are opposed
to the lottery will come out to the
polls on Friday, Nov. 9th, and de-
mand and exercise their right to
vote and take part in the Demo-
cratic primaries, in spite Of all the
and hindering objections
that the lottery men will be likely
to trump up for the occasion.
There is no denying the fact that
the very existence of the Demo-
cratic party is being imperilIed at |
the instance sand in the interest of |
The lottery, and if those who have |
he true interests of the party and |
State at heart do not assert their
manhood and wrest the party ma
:hinery from the vile hands that
would prostitute it to the use of
he lottery infamy, they must act
low or expect to have their rights
'verridden, their liberties invaded,
heir protests ignored and Louisi-
ma disgraced in the eyes of the
ivilized world.

During the past year several ply
sicians in New York have tried, with
a gratifying success, novel treat
ment Tor dyspepsia and cancer of
the stomach by washing out that or
gan. The process is very simple
and not dangerous. A long flexible
pipe is passed down the throat nm
til one end Is in the stomach. The
upper end has q funnel attached, ,in-
to which hot water is poured until
the stomach is filed. The weight
OF the water in the pipe and funnel
giAes a hydraulic pressure sufi-
cient to distend the stomach. The
pipe has an aperture big enough
TO hold q lead pencil. After the
stomach has been filed, the funnel
end of the pipe is turned down un-
til it is lower than the bottom of
the stomach, and the stomach is
emptied as barrel of any fluid is
emptied through siphon. The
process may be repeated several
times. The result is that tho un-
food and mucus are wash
ed out, and the hot water closes
the blood vessels and reduces infla-
nation. The relief is immediate.
The dyspeptic may have his stom-
ach washed out before q meal so
he may take q fresh start After
the lapse Of a sufficient time for or
dinary digestion tne stomach may
be washed out again. This process
has been in use at the New York
Hospital, we are informed, some
time.

One of the leading families in Sintt
CART gave a supper party, to which the
prince royal had been invited. His roy
al highness arrived little before all the
preparations for the feast were completed
Observing that he had arrived q little
too soon he had decided to take short
in front of the house while daylight wa:
fading into dark. Suddenly trim ser
want maid bounced out of the house and
ran up to the prince, to whom she hand
ed a parcel containing, as it aiterward
turned out, large piece Of sausage and
some money, and exclaimed under heI
breath:
"You won't have TO come to-day we'r
having large party the prince himself
is coming, so, goodbye till to-tomor
row." and with that she gave his royal
highness a couple of hearty kisses and
disappeared before he had time to get a
word cut.
A moment later he perceived a soldier
in his cloak, who was casting wishfui
glance at the house, and asked him if hi,
sweetheart lived there, and on the man,
replying in the affirmative the prime
continued
"Then this parcel must be intended
for you. The person who brought il
sends you word that you are to come to-
morrow, for she has no time to-day, on
account of the party"
Much obliged its all right; I'll
c)me tomorrow" said the soldier.
"She gave me something besides" the
prince went on to say, "but can't deliv
er you that"
"Oh, you may keep i;-and welcome"
rejoined the soldier I've plenty here
for to-day
Everybody at the party noticed that
his highness was more lively and good
humored than usual. He narrated his
adventure over the cigars and wine, but
exacted a promise that neither the ser
want girl nor The soldier should suffer
