HEARING CLAIMS.
Shall Commissioners Be Paid p
Damages for Injuries.

The assembly committee on claims
disposed of lot of routine business
yesterday afternoon. Among other
claims was one for the salaries of mem
bers of the hospital commission from
NaEember, 1891, 20 date. The law, Mr..
Lightner said, allowed each member of
the commission 500 per year. IN his
opinion this should only be payable
during the perio in which the commit
tee were actually engaged in the
work of experimenting the con-
structiOn of the building. He called
attention to the great need of
reforms like the one in question,
where the city could be saved $500 per
year, and had the claim referred to the
corporation attorney for an opinion as
TO whether the claim was legal. The
corporation attorney was directed to
settle the suit brought against the city
by Elizabeth Foster if possible on a
basis of $1,000. The woman has CON-
menced suit in the circuit court for
$4,000 for injuries resulting from de-
fective sidewalk, but her attorney has
intimated he would settle for $4,000.
The resolution allowing the sum of S5
per month to the health department for
postage was indefinitely postponed,
Messrs. Lightner and Doran both agree
ing the passage of such resolution would
have most baneful effect.

Make Your Shoe Polish.

Here is recipe for making shoe
polish which, it is said, will give
an excellent luster to ladies shoes,
can be very cheaply prepared, and
will not injure the leather, as do
most of the polishes that are sold
in the stores. Mix two pints of the
best vinegar and one of soft water
into which is stirred a quarter of a
pound of glue, broken up, half
pound of logwood chips, a quster
of an ounce of the best soft soap
and a quarter of an ounce of ISM
glass. Place the mixture on the
fire and let it boil for ten minutes
or more. Strain, bottle, and when
cold apply with a clean sponge.

The DacOtah's Down Trip.

The big Dacotah passed Colfax about
dark on Sunday evening, and the editor
OF the CHRONICLE having to attend the
U. S. Circuit court of Alexandria on
Monday, took passage. She landed at
Alexandria with the following cargo Of
through freight: 712 bales of cotton, 1000
sacks of seed, 1000 sacks of cotton seed
meal, 200 barrels Of oil, 1000 sacks of
oil cake. In addition to the foregoing
she also had on board HOO sacks of seed
for the Alexandria oil mill. We found
Capt. "Billy" Boardman still possessed of
all the affability and courtesy that has,
always made him prince among good
fellows, with that clever brother of his
an able second, and Skipper F. M. Sad
dler and Clerk J. p McElroy full team
to make up crew unsurpassed in this or
any other trade. Owing to heavy fog
the boat lay to at the head of the falls,
and about 9 o'clock Monday morning,
with the Boardmans at the wheel per-
formed the double feat Of shooting the
falls and the draw in the big iron railroad
bridge all in one act. This is not veyY
pleasant job with the pilots, as the iron
bridge spans the falls at the most dam
gerous point, and it is only by keeping a
cool head and steady nerve that they
manage to prevent their boats from rasp-
ing against the center or turntable pier.
This they accomplish by hugging the
Pineville pier as closely as possible, and
even then the swirl or bend in the swift
waters throws the craft 30 far around
that large boats like the Dacotah barely
escape MASKING their wheels or rudders
against the masonry of the center pier.

mo. Is.

There are a few fat-headed Dem
ocratic newspapers that have seen
fit to lecture Mr.. Cleveland for at
tending the funeral of ex-P President
Hayes, but the majority of the
American people think better of
him for doing SO, because it has
been shown that a very close friend
ship existed between the two men
which they did not permit their
political differences to disturb.
When Mr.. Cleveland heard the
news of Mr.. Hayes death he a,
once informed Mrs. Cleveland of
his intention to attend the funeral,
stating that he knew Mr.. Hayes
would have stood by his grave had
he been the first of the two to die.
It also appears that when the re-
suit of the recent election was
known Mr.. Hayes wrote to Presi-
dent-elect Cleveland informing
him that he would take great pleas
ure in being present at his inaugu-
ration.-N. o. States.

Jas. G. Blaine is Dead.

Hon. j. G. Blaine died at his
home in Washington City, at IL
o'clock ON the morning of January
26th. His demise has been expect
ed daily for several weeks, and is
no surprise to the country. He
was a wonderful man in many re-
spects, but the most remarkable
thing about him was the national
leadership to which he attained.
His ignorance of the great ques-
tons with which he grappled was
conspicuous, but by his very auda-
city he won the populace, who were
captivated with his recklessness.
While brilliant and plausible in
his arguments, he was Indifferent
to the facts, and hesitated to en-
ploy no sophistry to bolster up his
positions. BY pandering to the un-
charitable views of Radicalism he
held q firm hold of his Republican
leadership, and was almost idoliz-
ed by the rank and file. In his
death the party loses its most dar-
ing and capable leader.

A Democratic Senator from Kan
sas is a new surprise for the Re-
publicans Ill Congress. 1t was
brought about by a combination
between the Democrats and Popu-
lites, and was altogether unexpect-
ed. Judge John Martin, of To-
peka, is the man, and his election
is a candid admission on the part
of the Third Party people of Kan
sas that Democratic sentiments are
more in accord with their ideas
than is the "grand old party" of
protection and progress. 1t is also
an earnest as to action Of the Pop
lites in Congress, and gives good
reason for believing that in all
close party fights the Democrats
can count on them with a pretty
fair degree of certainty.

some thorough system of investigation,
has just been proven in the case of Mol

this system is pursued, the police jury is
subject to be imposed on by undeserving
characters, while deserving parties are IL
able to suffer neglect because their
friends fail to make proper presentation
of their cases.

The Public Roads.

The river road from Colfax to Boyce is
in great need of work. At three or four
points the caving banks have come un-
comfortably close, while in two or three
cases the encroachment of the river has
made travel 80 absolutely dangerous that
persons are forced over rough and disa-
greeable ground. We also hear that re-
pairs are needed on many Of the other
roads. The road apportioners will meet
in all the various wards of the parish on
Monday next, and the overseers should
at once notify the hands ON the roads
needing work, and get them out at as
early a date as may be practicable.
