No Blanks I'm This Competition.

This is a competition of rather an unusual
nature. 1t is common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the competitors risking the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling his
for the amount of the prize. But the Press
Claims Company's offer is something different.
Each person is asked merely to help himself,
and the one who he ps himself to the best ad-
vantage is to be rewarded for doing it. The
prize is only a stimulus to do something that
would be well worth doing without it. The
architect whose competitive plan for a club
house on a certain corner is not accepted has
spent his labor on something of very little use
to him. But the person who patents a simple
and useful device in the Press Claims Com
pany's competition, need not worry if he fail
to secure the prize. He has a substantial re-
suit to show for his work-one that will com
mand its value in the market at-any time.
The plain man who uses any article in his
daily work ought to know better how to i'm
prove it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point of
view. Get rid of the idea that an improve
ment can be too simple to be worth patenting.
The simpler the better. The person who best
succeeds in combining simplicity and popular
ity, will get the Press Claims Company's
twenty-five hundred dollars.
The responsibility of this company may be
judged from the fact that it's stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading newspa-
pers of the United States.

Wedderburn, managing attorney, 6l8 + street,

saOIaIn M. Unlisted.

DIED.-At the residence of his son near
Opelousas, La, on Monday, Aug. 9TH, 1893,
JOHN M. Unlisted, aged rs years 6 months
and II days.
The deceased was n native of the ST ate OF
Alabama. He came to Louisiana and took
up his residence in st. Landry, from which
parish he never departed except for o visit
which he paid last October to a sister and
brothers in Florida with whom lie passed
about 9 months. He returned to st. Landry
about the middle of June apparently much
benefited by it.
On arriving here from Alabama in 1893, he
was employed by the late Hon. John III. Over
ton, to manage his plantation on the Bayou
B9uf. He proved to be competent and faith
full. He afterwards located in the town of
Washington where he opened q hotel and IN
conjunction with it kept q livery stable.
subsequently he was employed by the late
Stephen w. Wik0ff to manage big large plan
tation Il few miles westward os Opelousas,
here too he proved all that was desired OF
him. For several years he was retained in
the employ of DIR. John A, Taylos-was with
during the war and the only son OF DIR.
Taylor has said to the writer that there never
lived Il more trustworthy agent IAN the de-
ceased.
On the 18th day OF February, 1858, he mar
ried Miss Scolastie Chacher6, q sister. of our
present Post master. OF this union there
were born six children of whom five survive,
together with the companion Of his way, to
mourn his departure.
He was Il quiet, law abiding citizen who
made it Il point to live oil terms of amity with
every one. For several years he has been
Il communicate Of the Methodist church in
this place. About fifteen days ago he began
to complain of feeling unwell, but as debility
and leehlcness always wait on old age. his
complaints excited no particular alarm until
about one week since when IL we'll marked
chill sliced him which was followed by a
high fever; medical attention was promptly
given him but the summons had come from
an almighty source-he had already passed
beyond his three score years and ten.
His symptoms grew more alarming each day
at last led down to the dominion of death.
He passed oil very quietly into that rest

UNITED CoNFEDERATE VETERANS,
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 9, 1893. }
General Order No. 1887
|. The General commanding regrets the
necessity which compels another change of
date for holding the United Confederate
Veterans r6Spion, which was to have been
held at Birmingham, Ala, on Sept. Is and l6
next, but finding it to be imperative that q
slight change should be made so as to perfect
all arrangements and accommodate all inter
ests, he has. after full consultation, and all
concurring, fixed the date for holding the
reunion, at Birmingham, Ala, on Monday and
Tuesday, Oct. 2 and 3, and the unwilling of
the Confederate monument at Chicago on
Saturday, Oct. Z. This is final, and no other
change or postponement will be made.
Many reasons were urged that the latest
possible date be given-tO avoid the summer
heat to permit the farmers to gather the
greater part, if not all, of their crops, to
place them in funds for the trip; the strong
probability that the number of camps, hav-
ing now reached $50, the fall being the most
favorable time for organizing, would swell to
grand proportions the hope and belief that
the financial situation would greatly improve
during the delay but the most potent reason
was the desire to afford the old veterans this
splendid opportunity of the cheapest excur-
sion rates to the Worlds Fair, and at the
of the unwilling of the only Confederate
monument upon Northern soil, it having been
positively ascertained this could only be done
to suit all concerned on the days now fixed.
III. The General commanding appeals to
all comrades to form clubs and take advan-
tage of the cheap excursion to the Worlds
Fair, which has been arranged by Major Gen.
John C. Underwood for their benefit and
pleasure, and for the holy purpose of partici
pating in the unwilling of the beautiful Com
federate monument, erected through the OK
ertions of Gen. Underwood, and his associates,
over the 10000 Southern heroes resting in the
shades of lakewood Cemetery, Chicago.
The monument is nearly completed, and
will be ready by the dates named. Probably
no event since the surrender at Appomattox
will arouse such pathos, North and South, as
the remnant of the armies of the South,
journeying thousands of weary miles, and
standing on the shores of the northern lakes,
under our common flag and the ;sgies of our
reunited country, paying their tribute of levs
and homage to the memory of their comrades,
who are sleeping so far away from their
homes and kindred.
Hon. w. I. c.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
will be orator of the day, and Gen. j. b. Cor
don, of Georgia, will preside on the occasion,
as commandment chief of the United Con
federate Veterans.
By order of j. B. Gordon, General com
manding.

The RhOpe's EncycIical.
Special to The Times Democrat.

Special to The Times Democrat.
New York, Aug. 1.-The World prints this
morning Pope Leo's encyclieal to all the rulers
in Christendom.
His Holiness says, in substance, that demo
cratic Socialism is a power which must be
taken into account, and that though mau has
a right to property and a right to work
strikes are justifable only as a means of
defense.
Europe is in the throes Of an immense
u%pheaval. Society, writes the Pope, and the
problem, of avoiding a still more terrible
upheayal, requires the serious attention of
the most astute economists and lawmakers.
Legislation has not been just, for every per-
son should have his legitimate part in the
benefits of society.
If the disconnected operative is to be
detached from anarchy and socialism his
wants must be understood by his rulers, who
must not leave to ~unscrupulous agitators the
monopoly of social reform.
Atheism and departures from the faith are
the great aids and stimulants of anarchy and
socialism. The Christian faith alone is the
bulwark of social order.

1t is one of the anomalies of modern hotel

the more you pay the less you expect 10 re-
turn, In the huge caravausaries of the large
American cities, where a man pays $75 a week
for a room, without board, he never thinks of
asking any service of the employees without
paying literally for it he is charged for a
fire, for light after midnight, for the use of
the telephone, for sending out a message by an
office boy, for taking lunch in his room, for
corkage on his own wines, and must tip the
walters. In a country hotel, where he pays
So a week, with board, he can have a fire in
his room when he wants it, he can trust the
landlord to send letters and messages, he can
smoke all over the house, he can borrow any
thing from a gun to a pair of trousers, he can
get the landlady to mend his torn coat, he
can call for breakfast at 5 o'clock in the
morning and get it, he can get the landlords
boy to dig bait for him, and he has to tip
