of the state, held at Lafayette. The session
! was held for the purpose of drawing up
some plan by which the workings Of the diff
ferent sheriffs' Offices in the state might be
systematized and made known to the other
sheriffs, and to remedy the rude manner of
conducting business in some of the parishes.
Mr.. Mauberret was elected secretary Of the
convention, and brought back to the city
the constitution and bylaws adopted at the
meeting,
The organization will be permanent one
and the one object will be to make the work
ing of the Office easy and as perfect as
possible.
The criminal sheri ffs have decided to
have published in the leading New Orleans
dailies the criminal events of the parish, and
a full description of the criminal. In this
manner not only do the sheriffs of the ad-
joining parishes become aware of the crime,
whatever it might be, but every person in
the parish will know of the deed the day
after it has been committed. The object of
the sheriffs is to have made known as soon
as possible to their brother officers the exis-
tence of crime, and they have taken the
method described to accomplish their pur.
pose.
Mr.. Mauberret says that the association
of sheriffs is still SO young that nothing iefin-
tie has been done excepting the completion
of the organization.-Picay

COLUMBIARICE MILL
NEW YORK,

We beg to call attention to the
fact that we have commenced mill
ing for the new season. Planters
who propose shipping rough rice
to be milled on toll-will do well to
write us as to the amount they are
likely to ship and the probable date
of Shipment This will enable us to
place Same on our mill roster and
by the turn being thus engaged, inn
mediate attention secured as soon
as the rough is received.
Holders of old crop will CO we'll
to send it right along before the new
crop makes it sttake a back seat"
Do not mix the old and new to-
gether as they mill differently and
they both suffer.
Care should be taken to pack in
good strong bags, also to mark
plainly that lots may not get mixed
with others coming to us by each
incoming steamer.

Germany, Austria and Italy made their
army manoeuvers as irritating, provocative
and insulting to France as covert actions
could possibly demonstrate. Now France
and Russia are hurting back these concealed
insults by an international love feast that
will be highly exasperating to the triple
powers. 1t would seem if the European
war storm was fast eliminating into furiou
outbreak.

NERD re CONSTR UcZxNt

Two weeks since The Gazette ad.
vanced some ideas in regard to
what it considered the best remedy
to apply to reconstruct the presen,
cumbersome. expensive and far
from satisfactory judiciary system
prevailing in this State.
We gave it as our opinion that a
judge and a district attorney should
be appointed in each and every
parish of the State, and abolish al
together the Offices of circuit and
district judges, and also justices of
the peace.
The plan suggested by us has this
merit: public business will be ex-
pedetiously disposed of, and those
charged with offences will thus be
afforded a speedy trial, which, it
must be confessed, does not at pre-
sent obtain, save in rare instances.
Now let us see about the expense
under thu two ways. At present the
10 circuit judges (outside of New
Orleans) receive in salary $40, 900,
the 20 district judges receive 500,
900. and the 22 district attorneys
receive $22, 900, making a total Of
$I3I,ooo year that the State is &C
tually paying out.
There are So parishes in the State,
outside of New Orleans. Let us
allow to judge in each p arish: say
-,
ney 5000 year, the total would be
500, 400, thereby resulting in the
saving to the State of $40, 600
year.
And then it would be possible to
relieve the Supreme Court of the
State of much work, by creating a |
Court which would have jurisdic-
ton only over criminal matters,
leaving to. the present Supreme
Court only civil cases. This court,
that we have in view, could be COM
posed of three members, at salary
Of $4,000 each a year, and still the
State would be the gamer, over the
present method, of ST., 600 year.
1t is evident that some steps must
De taken to equalize the work of the
district judges. The 18th, as we'll
Is some other districts, have too
much business for one man. One
district in the State is composed of
parishes obviously this is more
han one man can do justice to. a
:rying complaint is that civil and
matters are not handled .
With despatch that the rights of Ii .
igants are suffering; that a speedy
rial is out of the question. In this i
tate, of affairs what must result ?
either half a dozen or more Judges ,
must be appointed, at an additional {

aust be reconstructed. The former ,
s we said will entail many thous- ,

he latter will not bring any relief,

the poor in Japan is the result of
the spirit of politeness which per-
vades all ranks of the Japanese

hind ones are called "trails." The
advantage of a "trail" was said 10
have been discovered by accident in
early days. A toamstor had occa-
sion TO hitch on new wagon and
take it out 20 mines IN the noun
tains. Having large amount Of
freight he put part of his load in
the "trail" wagon. lie noticed
that his load pulled easier; that
one wagon steadied the othor in
rough places that in crossing
oulyerts the hind wagons moment
um propelled the front one. So
the practice of having two or more
wagons became almost universal.
With twelve horse team the freight
is ordinarily too much for ono
wagon.
The period of fruit.growing is
now on. Its herald was the vine-
yard with its winery. California
bids fair to bo the fruit garden OF
tho world. Frost never kills the
bloom in many favored localities
the crop is a certainty, and drought
is dctiod by irrigation. But irri-
CATION is greatly aided by
cultivation. have seen orchards
boar fine fruit without rain for SIX
months, and not drop OF water
from irrigation. The orchards arc
plowcd and cultivated repeatedly IN
the spring until the soil is COM
pletely pulvorized. Nothing in tho
form OF weeds or filth OF any kind
then raps the moisture of the soil.
The finely pulveriaod soil, then, by
interfering with capillary attraction
holds the moisture and arrests the
evaporation which, in untitled
ground, leaves il hard as n rock.
IL was an old time idea in the cast
that the bake-oven like hillock
made the big ear Of corn. But it
was proven afterwards that thor
ough cultivation, ard not the hill
lock in particular, made the best
"crap."
Irrigation perpetuatcs the bloom
OF nature, which groets us in tho
wintor. All year round the flowers
can be trained around the doorsteps
and never-ending summer hold us
in its voluptuous charms. Tho
greatest irrigation scheme in the
world is the Valley Of tho Nile.
Art, in tho California Basin, will
yet surpass the beautios Of that
world-renowned valley.

THEY WERE ALL TELEGRAPHERs.

/ was engaged in nay magazine as
the train sped on, and did not
notice that a bride and groom had
entered the car at small station,
but my attention was attracted to
the couple in rather an odd way
by telegraphic signs.
Two young men who sat opposite
to each other across the aisle wero
making remarks about them by
ticking with their pockS knives on
the metal arm Of tho seat, says
writer in Harper's Bazar.
" Sweet as peach, isn't she ~

"See how close he sits to his tOot-

others hand, aren't they ?"
" No, but they are exchanging
love glances."
How on earth do you suppose q
chump like that managed to catch
such an angel -
"Give IL up. She surely couldn't
sec anything in him to admire"
"Hor lips were just made for
kisses"
That's what they wore"

"Well ?'
" When The train gets to the next
tunnel I'm going to reach over and
kiss her"
"You wouldn't dare"

was her husband, you know"
Their telographic cOnversation
ceased here, for the bridegroom had
taken out his pocket knife and com
menced TO tick OF this message on
the arm OF the seat
"Whcn the train gets to The next
tunnel the chump proposes 10 reach
over and hammer your two heads
together till your teeth drop out.

Soon after that two pass sengors
might have been seen sneakinq of
TO the smoking car, and they re-
manned in the smoker not only
while the train went through tho
tunnel, but until they reached their
destination.

A PROSE POEM.

BY Col. ROBERT G.. INGERsoLI.
Born Of love and hope, of ocstacy
aud pain, of agony and fear, of
tears and joy-dowered with the
wealth OF two united hearts--held
in happy arms, with lips upon life s
drifted font, blue-velned and fair
where perfect peace finds perfect
form-rocked by willing feet and
wooed to shadowy shores of sleep
by siren mother singing soft and
low-looking with wonders wide
and startled eyes at common things
OF life and day--taught by want
and wish and contact with the
things that touch the dimplcd flesh
Of babcs-cured by light and flame
and charmed by color's wondrous
robes, learning the use Of hands
and feet, and by the love Of mimi
cry beguiled to utter speech--releas-
ing prisoned thoughts from grabbed
and curious marks OH soiled and
tattered leaves--puzzling the brain
with crooked numbers and their
changing tangled worth--amd so
through years Of alternating day
and night, until the captive grows
familiar with the chalns, aud walls,
and limitations of life.
And time runs on IN sun and
shade, until the one Of all the world
is wooed and won, and all the lore
Of love 10 taught and learned agnin.
Again the miracle OF birth-the
pain and joy. the kiss of welcome
and the cradle song, drowning tho
drowsy prattle OF the babe.
And then the sense of obligation
and Of wrong-pity for those who
toll and weep--tears for the impris-
onod and despised--love for the
generous dead, aud IN the heart the
rapture Of high resolve.
And then ambition, with it's lust
OF pelf and place and pow0r, long
ing TO put upon its breast distinc.
toms worthless badge. Then
kcener thoughts Of men, and eyes
that see behind tho smiling mask
Of craft-Aattered no more by the
obsequious cringe Of gain and greed
knowing the uselessness Of boar
ded gold and honor bought from
those who charge the usury Of self
respsct-of power that only bends a
coward's knee and force from the
lips Of fear the lies Of praise.
Knowing at least the unstudicd
gesture Of esteem, the roverent eyes
made rich with honest thoughts
and holding high above all other
thiugs-high az hopes great throb-
bing star about the darkness of tho
dead-~tho love Of wife and child
and friend.
Then locks Of gray and growing
love Of other days and half.remem-
bered things holding wither-
cd hands Of those who frst held
his, while over dim and loving eyes
death softly presses down The lids
Of rest.
Aud 80, locking in marriage VOWS
his childrens hands, and crossing
others on the breasts OF peace, with
daughters babes upon knees, the
white hair mingling with the gold
he journeys on from day to day to
the horizon where the dusk is wait.
ing for that night-sitting by tho
holy hearth Of home, as the last
embers change from red to gray, he
falls asleep within tho arms Of her
he worshippcd aud adorcd feeling
upon bis lips loves last aud holiest

Articulation in Lower Animals.

One must guard against the belief that
monEeys possess a%rticulated language.
About some savages it can hardly be
said that they possess an articulated
language. The Bushmen speak in a sort
of articulated "voicing," and must add
gestures to make themselves understood.
On the other hand, the raven, the
thrush, the hooking bird, the startling
ETC., express themselves in we'll articu.
lated sounds. The parrots a%rticulate in
a surprising manner, though they do not
understand the meaning of their own
words.
This shows that other living beings be-
sides man possess the necessary organsfor
a%rticulated sounds. The apes of DR.. Gar
ner seem to possess articulation, accord
ing to his reports, but their vocabulary
is extremely limited. AS regards this
point, however, it can be said hat ever
among civilized people very limited vo-
cabularies are found.-COpenhagen Fam
