ED'r0n ST. TAMNAXY FARM4K:
suppose you will be glad to heal
something about this old place. II
is not much Of a place for news.
I know, but still we arc alive and
kicking. or trying to kick as much
as we can. At any rate, the United
Friends Benevolent Association are
kicking, AMI have their fine hall al
most finished. The work is being
done By Mr.. Emile Ouliber, and
despite the sneers and SCOTS Ut q
good many would-be wiseacres, he
has proved himself to be what his
friends knew him to be, q master
workman, and those who do not be-
lieve him 10 he ST., let them but
LOOK with unbiased eyes on the
work he has done, and forever hold
their peace.
We had quite lively time around
Mr., Dendinger's corner last Satur-
day. Mr.. Felix CouiOw's team rau
away and came tearing up the
street, in fact on the sidewalk
making the ever present small boy
git up aud git. When they came
to Mr. Dend,nger's store We al
thought they would be stopped by
his railing posts, but oh, no, they
knew not the word stop, but they
just struck the posts and carried all
Of them away, and if the tongue of
the wagon had not broke l suppose
they might be going still, but some
way that caused them to swerve
around the corner and one Of them
fell down, and SO they had to stop,
We are expecting to have an ex'
h,bi.ion by the young people, fol
which they are now nightly re-
hea-sing.
We had the first rain yesterday
that we have had in nearly month,
but it did not extend very far west
Of here.
Well, l believe l have no more to
tell right now, 50 l will close for
the present. Yours, etc.,

ATTEND YOUR LODGE MEET
INGS.

The Morgan City Review very
aptly says:
A great many people join frater-
nal organizations because they
think it may he 50 good thing"
and that they fix their positions
more solidly among their fellow
citizeps. Many think so and n,
doubt they are correct, for the
ties that bind them to their breth-
rem cause . kindlier and more fel-
low feeling to pervade the hearts
and minds of all.
Once members however, they
pay their dues promptly, consider
their duty thus ended aud are sell
dom ever after seen in the meeting
house. This is wrong. 1t Is alb
solutely necessary for the men,
bers to attend meetings and keep
up the interest in their lodge and
thus fulfil the intentions Of the
Order, which was surely not or
xanized with . view Of looking
after one mans interest only.
A lack of interest and attendance
is fatal to any institution, and is a
rank injustice to the staunch few,
whose familiar faces are seen at
every meeting.

The estate news" man of the

recently killed near Covington that
had been killing the sheep in Tan

possibly, at some time in his life,
nave wandered over to Tangipahos
parish, but the fact remains that he
met his death near Covington be-
cause he had been killing the sheep
in st. Tammany parish. Any ordi-

audience from assembling in the -Four.
spontaneous laughter frequently ~resounded,
and the audience was rewarded for Drawing
the bleak and cutting wind by a night OF
thorough enjoyment.
The chief factor in producing this salts
factory state of things was MIR. Roland
Reed and the medium was Mr.. d. D. Lloyd's
~four-aot comedy. 1.-The Woman Halter"
To a good many people Roland Reed Ia
known as II dry, earnest comedian OF quiet
methods and with certain quaint humor OF
| his own, which he seems to infuse into the
| play in which he is acting. Last evening
he seemed bubbling over with humor and
hearty. wholesome fun seemed absolutely
to exude out of HIM.
The role of Samuel Bundy, a cynical old
bachelor, who thought himself a misogynist,
though he was really very susceptible to the
charms OF the fair sex and who, through q
ludicrous combination of circumstances to
which extraordinary bashfulness con
tributed in n great degree. managed to be-
COM engaged to three women at the same
time, fitted Mr.. Reed like a glove. The
play. although the plot is simple. is
bristliHg with oomical situations particu-
larlv in the last act, whore the alleged mis-
orynist is taken by mistake TO q lunatic
asylum.

A Realistic Display.
The Memorial day decorations made by
Sands Bros. this year were unique and at
t~ractive and eclipse ANYTHING in the way OF
window decorations yet attempted in Hel'
ena. The decorations consisted of q mas
sive granite monument ~surimounted with
an equestrian statue of General Custer. On
the monument was the simple inscription,
'In Memoriam, 1854"
The monument rested on a green ground
md was tastefully draped with red, white
aud BLU streamers and wrenths of flowers.
The back and sides of the window were
draped with the national colors and stands
of arms were placed near the monument.
The display on the whole was very realistic
and many a veteran looked upon it rever-
emily as it carried him back in imagination
to the companionship of those brave boys
who fell fighting for the union. =.
