The article of the Lafayette Adj
veatiser replying to our little s*pleas-
antry" concerning their ssparish
map" has dahPened our powder
and spiked our guns; and we accept
the very satisfactory explanation
in the spirit in which. it is offered.
1t was a merry party that

Mrs. Odon GuldEy, Mcsdames G.

Desire SaNois brought to our
Office a ''ribbon'' sugar cane, 6 feet
and inches long, weighing S
pounds and "A ounces. Mr.. Savois
has 20 acres Of such cane, and will
begin grinding shortly. His horse
power sugar aaii is very neat little
apparatus, and answers the Pur-
pose very we'll. He sells his sugar
and molasses to small farmers aroud
and clears a good profit.
The whistle of the cotton gin
can be heard on all sides. Your
correspondent had a pleasant chat
with gentleman thoroughly fami-
liar with cotton matters, and he
says that the loss in our section
will be comparatively small. The
recent wind and rain storm did not,
to any serious extent, injure our
cotton.
We are happy to hear that sew
eral carloads of lumber have been
ordered for parish use. We will
then expect new bridge near Rer-
nard's, and one facing Lessin Brous=
sard's.
We willingly hail the Pilette
Base Ball Club as champions of this
side of Ver,nilion Bayou, but we
certainly cannot recognize them as
champions of Lafayette parish.

made by Messrs. Howard Huffpauir,
Tom Spell, Odes Huffpauir, Brother
Toler, and the Rev. Mr.. Drake of
Crowley, and S. w. Nickle, president
or Union NO. "a or DuSon.

Sheriff Broussard last Thursday morning
captured negro fugitive from justice after
a most exciting chase. The negro who
gave his name Geo. ID. Morton, had visited
BiesSats jewelry store to have a watch re-
paired and while there acted in q very sus-
picious manner and gave evidence Of un-
easy frame of mind. Sheriff Broussard on
being informed of the matter began a search
for the man, who had in the meantime re-
tired to Jake Browns cabin in Mouton's
Addition. The officer proceeded thither
and on approaching noticed negro boy
standing sentinel, disappeared in great
haste toward the OF the house. BY the
time the sheriff arrived the negro fugitive
had fed through back way and was quite
dssts.fce away. The pursuit now began in
earnest, the sheriff discharging several pis-
toll shots to cause his man heave to, but
all in vain. The negro finally took refuge
in Mr.. Jean Vigneaux's field and continued
for some time to evade the sheriff by dogd-
ing about in the high weeds. Our plucky
sheriff last worked his s'rabbit foot'' sue
ccssfuly put his uiader arrest, although
the latter had two s'rabbit foots'' in his
pocket. The sheriff found Colts pistol,
50 calibrc and al,rge valise filed with clothes,
a watch and several smaller articles of jew
elry in possession of his prisoner, whom he
believes to be JEFF Gibbs of Copiah county,
Miss, and wanted for the murder of J. c.
Davis in October, 1892. The negro claimed
,kat he was from East Texas, brakeman
by avocation and member of the Brother
hood of Railway Tranmen whose badge he
wore. The representations however are
deemed false and the sheriff will hold
Morton, until he ascertains positive inforn,a-
lions as to his crimes or misdeeds.
