We Were Not Surprised.

Preceptor, in his comments on
our article, alluding to the COM
petitOry examination of the young
gentlemen, who were applicants
for cadet-ship in the Louis
lana State University and Me-
chanical College, published in our
issue of the 26th ultimo, accused
us, to have, with many others, ex-
pressed surprise that one of the
applicants, pupil Of his school
had passed a creditable examina-
tion in contest with a graduate
of a neighboring school. We are
not aware that any one has shown
or expressed any such surprise;
but, certainly no fair minded read
er of our article, can place this
construction on it. We were sim

en- pdssanf we could compliment
the Principal of that School, with
out ruffling his sensitiveness, but
In this, we have been unfortunate

The Judge then ordered the
drawing of the jury which proved
very amusing to the big crowd in
the court room. A lady was al

both sides but when ever a man
was called he was subjected to
questions and always rejected for

discharged on their looks as bad

SATURDAY. SEPT. 9, 1898.
The Oil Works Crowd.

Last Sunday the officers of the
Oil Works gave to their employees
a grand fishing party at Bayou
Tortue. The party consisted of
about twenty persons, who were
the officers and employees of the
Oil Works and a few guests.
Fish was in abundance, also
wine, beer and other liquors, that
contributed much to make the
party feel happy. At the arrival
of the party on the ground, all
took hand in fishing and a few
hours after enough fish was
caught to make a good dinner.
All hands were called to help the
cook. Some were handling the
fish, others lighting fires, while
another crowd was peeling onions
and garlics, others were serving
beer, while some made stand by
the beer barrel.
The day was one spent in fun
pleasure and happiness. When
the dinner was ready, at about two
O'Clock in the evening, the master
OF ceremony called all hands
around the festive board-which
for this occasion was the body of
the wagon turned upside down,
but it did splendid duty. When
all were served a nice plate of
court-bouillon they we're served
with wine, bread, fried fish. and
other good eatables, coffee, pouse
cafe, cognac, benedictine, cigars
etc. AT this time the spirits were
high and all hands were happy.
The toasts were than declared in
order and with the assistance of
the flowing spirits the free, frank
and open expressions of the spea-
kers flowed freely.
1t was really happy party, and
the writer who happened to be
one OF the fortunate guests, was
really pleased to note the good
feeling of friendship and cordia-
lity that existed between employ
era and employees, and the compli-
ments that were exchanged at the
party, showed that the employers
appreciate the services of the en- !
ployes and that the employees are {
honest and conscientious people {
who give good and faithful SER y
vice to those who pay them for q
heir work. 4
As long as that good feeling /
Vill exist between employers and -
good and faithful work
Will be obtained and that enter
rise will keep on to increased !
