In the Burning Heat and Freezing
Cod He STICKS to HIS Post.
To know the American soldier well
you must toll with him over the des-
ert trail where the Gun beats holly
down on the dry and verdureless earth,
and the dust rises in white clouds that
hide the column from view, and fills
the eyes, the mustaches, the ears, the
mouth, with profanity and vexation.
Here is where his songs and Jokes pro-
claim the stuff he is made Of.
Then, when you are sent out with
him in the dead OF winter in over
twenty inches OF snow, your equip
ments and supplies on bobsleds, he it
is that dismounts time and again
without murmur, pushing to help
the mules uphill, and repacking the
overturned sled dozen times day;
then, after all, digging his hole in the
snow, and putting up his tent at
night, all the time joking with the
"bunkie," and ready as ever to steal
wisp OF hay or handful OF oats for
his shivering horse.
He it Is that jumped into boiling
hot spring to save the life of the
daughter OF a private citizen, who was
rich man, proffered the astounding
sum OF IS and the government gold
medal OF honor; he that took q fiat
bottomed boat out in heavy seq in
New York harbor to rescue q drown
ing boy; that lost his life for his fidel-
ity in attempting to swim an icy
stream with dispatches; who single
handed, served q field-gun through an
action with bullet in his leg to hold
position; he that you believe incap-
able of anything but "bueliDg faro"
and drinking strong liquors.

Additional Local.
A Flrsr-class Sensation.

On last Saturday evening great ex-
element was created in Lawton by a
shooting ARRAY in which the partici-
pants were two well-known residents
of that village, Geo Ii. Xix, proprietor
of the Robinson House, and Herman
Miller, Il respectable mechanic.
The episode seems to have been a
sort of duel, fought without seconds or
any preconcerted arrangement, and
occurred i'm the vicinity of Mr.. Miller's
home. Each claims To have shot the
other i'm self defense and Mr.. Xix de-
poses that he was rambling about in
that section of the town in
search of strayed horse, while neither
of the actors seems willing to talk of
the cause that brought on the engage
ment, although the affair is not without
its accompanying scandal.
The shooting was done with revolvers
and Mr.. Xix received a bullet in his
shoulder which plonghed its way into
the neck, the physicians not having
been able to locate its present where
abouts Several shots were fired at
Mr.. Miller, hut only one struck him,
and that had its force so deadened by
intervening thicknesses of clothing that
it made but slight impression, although
it was fired in such close proximity as
to SINCE his face with the powder flash.
Mr.. Miller was arrested yester
day on complaint of Geo. IL. Rix, charged
with assault with intent to murder.
Respondent has been admitted to bail
i'm the sum of $500, pending his exam
nation, set for May 10th. John Ma
hard and Harvey Harper signed Miller's
bond The general sentiment seems to
be that the most sensational develop
ments will follow.

in Baton Rouge on the 18th for the pur-
pose of calling a convention to nomi-

Hon. A. d. Lafargue was called to

On motion Of Mr.. Hyams it was re-
solved that the nominating convention

Bayou Boeuf-Its Possibilities.


In letter form Leconlpte to the N
O. Times Democrat, Mr.. NJ. B. Hilliard
says, referring to Bayou Boeuf:
And, speaking of this bayou, reminds
me of the reconsideration paid to the
streams Of this State. Here is one that
many States would prize and utilize.
With little lockage it could be made
Manageable the year round to Washing
ton, where it and the COcOdrie make the
Courtableau. At this point the Boeuf
is 100 feet or more wide, and is nOW tif-
teen feet deep. But it has been neg
lected and allowed to grow up in will
low, cypress and other trees, and is now
impassable for even barges. Years ago
Mr.. Raph Smith used to run a steam
boat below here to Cheneyville, and
bring up sugar and other products in
barges and then transport these to Alex
andria by a railroad from here, on
wooden rails. The Texas and Pacific
Railroad bought out the franchise, and
the roadbed is now used by that road to
Alexandria from here. Perhaps there
may come day yet when this bayou
NAV not be so disregarded. 1t is not
difficult to imagine how it might be
managed to be an important factor in
cIleapening rates for the products that
could be raised on its banks, in some
future and brighter day of a dense pop
ulation, and hourishing towns situated
on it's stream.

In view of the fact that a very con-
siderable number of new buildings have
been erected here during the past year,
and that the general progress of the
community has been quite marked, the
above showing is certainly remarka-
bic one and anything but satisfactory.
Instead of showing an increase in the
total assessment, and considerable
one, which we had reason to expect,
there has been an actual falling Oft OF
nearly $4,000; and that assessment,
which last year reached the modest fig
ure of s3S7, $40 has dropped this year to
$685., $50, when it should have gone to at
least 100000. There must surely be-
some means to rectify the errors made
in this matter, some remedy for this fla
grant blunder, and we hope that the
Council will promptly find and apply
