Natchitoches Normal School.

Special attention was called to
this excellent institution, at the last
meeting of the Louisiana Press As.
ISOLATION by the adoption of the
following resolutions:
"Resolved, That the most conspicuous
feature connected with our visit To
Natchitocbes and our association with It's
people and acquaintance with it's enter
prises and institutions has been the won.
derful disclosures in relation to the great
State Normal College located here. We
have made a careful and thorough exam
ination OF its opportunities, the grand re-
sultsit is accomplishing, and it's pressing
needs. We ascertain, with great pleasure
and satisfaction, it is the especial pride
and favorite of every citizen of Natchi-
tOches and surrounding country, one of
the first and most important elements of
success. We find it presided over by a
Christian gentleman and scholar who
maintains with ability and dignity tho
roughly modern and approved methods
OF instruction, and most admirable and
perfect discipline in every detail Of its
management In the classroom and dormi-
tory, and during the hours of recreation.
We find him assisted by corps of skill
ed and accomplished ladies and gentle
men in every branch and department.
Indeed, we find it operating with as much
smoothness, as little friction and as much
satisfaction as any other State institu-
ton.
We find, further that its boarding de-
partment, the perennial source OF anguish
and distress in all similar colleges, under
the management of Mrs. A. Z. Donaho,
its matron, conducted with marked skill,
performing, as she does, the almost i'm
possible feat of giving thorough satisfac-
tion to boarding school.
We reconize in it no local institution,
but great State college, in which our
people are all alike interested and to
which they should pledge their unquali-
fed favor and support"
Resolved, That upon single point
we find just cause for serious complaint,
and this Is In no wise connected with it,
During the session of 1893 every possible
available space has been occupied, and
indeed the institution has been crowded
to its fullest limit by pupils from all Sec
tons of the State; and more still, we
find the dormitories i'll suited for the
habitation of the girls of our State, and
totally inadequate and insufficient for
the required purposes. 1t is scarcely
less than a disgrace to our S9ate that
better provision has not already been
made.
Resolved further, That we pledge our
selves to use every effort to secure such
State appropriations as will enable it to
continue to grow and enlarge IN its num-
bers and Its capacity for efficient work,
believing. as we do, that no expenditure
Of public funds can be more wisely or
profitably made.

Mr.. Hyde stated to me, in the

cause he was a large stock holder

dollar per ton more than an out

lively made to me by Mr.. Hyde in

believe he did receive the rebate or

the good reason he so stated to me,

Whether these profits show on

In regard to the escape of e. A.
Harris last week, the New Era OF
the goth has this to say:
Harris escaped through the jail
door, as it was found on examina-
ton that any ordinary man could
spring the door backwards and
open it when locked. This argues
very badly for the contractor that
placed the door and steel cages in
the jail, as we'll as the committee
that received the jail after the door,
ETC., was finished.
The escape of Harris was through
the basket or inner door of the jail,
the outer door, which is a solid
sheet of steel, being open at the
time. The committee has yet to
approve and accept the cages and
steel work in the Jail. With these
amendments the above paragraph
is correct.
