d. U. Hebert & Bro., have the finest
line OF HATS in town at prices very
low.
Our merchants have put in
this season, large and complete
stocks in every line of goods. The
consumer can now find anything
ne wishes, at as low price as can
be had anywhere else. The large
stocks and low prices may be con-
sidered the reason for the increa-
ing trade of the town this season.
Never fail to visit the store
of j. B. Ferran before making
your purchases.
Never before has the busi-
ness outlook of this town been SO
brilliant The town has changed
as though by enchantment. The
streets are filed with people every
day of the week and the lull in
business eccasioned by the finan-
cial crisis, seems to have dissp-
peared to give an impetus to the
situation never before seen. It
has acted as it were like "sun-
shine after rain" Confidence that
main spring of business activity
has been restored. Industries are
again giving employment, sugar
houses are being put in operation,
crops harvested and the proceeds
of the farmers tolls paid it. Even
the favorable weather comes in
for a share of the outlook reduc-
ing the expenses of gathering the
crops to q minimum.
It lies with the merchants to
enhance this progressiveness. Let
them keep a stock on hand at
prices that will attract trade. Lend
in a hand III any enterprise that
will bring the people to town and
success cannot but crown their
efforts.
The great storm which has
worked 80 much destruction of
life and property in Cheniere,
Caminada, Bayou Cook and 9TH
er points on the coast from reports
given by the New Orleans press,
is proving to be one of the grea-
est calamities which has ever Wis
tied Louisiana. The lives lost
will reach more than two thou
sands. Appeals for help have
been made throughout the state and
the people of Louisiana have re-
sponded with liberal contributions
of money, food and clothing. Great
credit is due to the two New Or
leans papers the Times-Democrat
and the Picayune who have given
full reports of the disaster and be-
sides have spent thousands of
dollars in sending relief boats
loaded with food clothing and
surgical aid for the sick and
wounded.
The catholic church OF this place
will take up contributions next
Sunday for the storm sufferers at
both masses. Our citizens should
not forget to hand in any amount
that their means will allow them.
In doing SO they contribute to a
caase truly noble and charitable.

Bro, and you will be stylish.

The President Talks Finance.

President Cleveland announced
Monday evening that he intended TO
call an extra session of Congress not
earlier than the first nor later than
the 18th of September, unless uneX-
pected contingencies should necessl-
tate an earlier meeting. The Presl-
dent further SAID:
while there has been no mystery
nor secrecy in regard to my intention
in this matter, | think it not amlss
that our people should be Informed
authoritatively that the time is at
hand when their representatives in
Congress will be called upon to deal
with a financial condition which is
the only menace to the country's wei
fare and prosperity. IL is well for
the people to take up the subject for
themselves and arrive at their own
conclusions as to the merits of a ii
nancial policy which obliges us 10
purchase idle silver bullion with gold
taken from our reserve. One does
not need the eye of a tinancier TO see
that this gold, thus subjugated from
the governments stock, is eagerly
seized by other nations for the pur-
DOSG VI oll AAiN'A 5000 -
our expense.
1t does not need the art of states
manship to detect the danger that
awaits us upon the continuance OF
this operation. Already the timidity
of capital is painfully apparent, and
none of us can fail to see that fear
and apprehension in monetary circles
will ultimately bring suffering to
every humble home in our land.
Il think that between now and the
meeting Of Congress much depends
upon the action OF those engaged in
financial operations and business en-
terpriseS Our vast national resources
and credit are abundantly sufficient
to justify them in the utmost faith
and confidence. If, instead Of being
frightened they are conservative, and
if instead of gloomilY anticipating
immediate disaster they contribute
their share of hope and steadiness,
they will perform patriotic duty
and at the same time protect thel:
own interest. The things justly need
ed are GOODNESS and calmness in iinan
cial circles, and study and reflection
among our people"

The General Assembly of the Pres
bVteriun Church closed its session at
Washington Thursday after suspend
ing Prof. Charles \ Briggs from the
ministry of that church for teaching
and propagating doctrines contrary
to the Holy Scriptures and the stand
ard of the Presbyterian Church.
The eminent position Of DIR. Briggs rs
scholar and the vigor with which
he defended himself from the charges
against him have attracted wide at
teution to the trial. The basis Of the
charges was the inaugural address
delivered by Dr. Briggs on the occa-
sion of his induction into the Edward
Robinson chair Of biblical theology
in Union Theological Seminary In the
city of New York on January 20, 1891.
The principal specitications recite in
substance that DR.. Briggs declared
that in the case of some persons the
Holy Scriptures are not sufficient 10
give that knowledge Of God and His
will which are necessary TO salvation,
but that some may find that know
ledge through the reason; that Moses
Is not the author of the Pentateuch;
that Isaiah is not the author Of half
the book that bears his name; that
predictive prophesv has been reversed
by history and much of it has not
and never can be fulfilled; that there
i progression or probation IN the fu
ture state, and that there are errors
in the Bible consequent upon its hav-
ing passed through many hands in
its transmission to us. DR.. Briggs, in
his defense, maintained that there
was nothing in his teaching which,
properly understood, impaired the
Bible as q rule Of faith aud practice,
or that was contrary to the tr;e in
depreciation of the Westminster Con-
fes>ion The vote against DR.. Briggs
in the assembly was more than three
to one. Having suspended DR..
Briggs the assembly dissolved its re
lations with Union Theological Sem
mary Of New York, which had sup
ported him in the controversies

Further, the statement is confirmed
that all the glass manufacturers have
