LONDON, January 2S.-The bank
scandal in Rome certainly bids far TO
be the Little Panama for when
Frenchmen have been eagerly looking
in foreign countries in order to divert ut
tention from the relations Of corruption
in Paris. A determined effort is making
in Rome to upset the Giolitti Ministry
and everything indicates that within the
next ten days this effort will prove sue
cessiul There is no doubt that az FL
nance Minister in the Crispl Cabinet
Giolitti utilized tho banks having CON
nection with the government for cleo
tioneering purposes. Needy politicians
were fastened to the Crispi-Giollitl
rcginc by receiving loans on easy terms
from these banks.
LOAN NOT EXPECTED TO BE REPAID.
MANY Of these loans were never re-
paid, and were probably not expected to
be repaid. and the sO.called securities
are now among the unavailable assets OF
several more or less unsound institutions.
That this semi political debsuchery was
closely conn .cted with debauchery IN
private life, rs was the case IN the Panama
scandal, has been proved by the reveal
tons preceding the arrest Of MlIlner
Luppi, who helped the manager OF the
Bank of Naples to squander mlsappro-
priated funds upon dishonest women and
young gnl+
MEN OF INFLUENCE Swallowed.
Other men of influence with the
broken banks are practically under ar
rest as they are Swallowed day and
night by detectives. although for pollt-
cal reasons the warrants are still held
back. These men also have disposed
OF large sums for the benefit Of no.
torious women in Rome and Naples,
confident Of immunity from punishment
because deputies had received tinan-
cial assistance from them and had
sat at tables with them. len deputies
have already been mentioned as COM
promised 10y the investigation OF the ex-
aiming magistrate, and nobody knows
where the next blow viii fall, az the cX-
animation Of seized documents Is con
stantly revealing new ramliicatlons OF
the scandal. The scandal has been
brought to light very OPPORTUNITY for
the powerful party who oppose the
Triple Alliance.

On last Sunday and Monday nights
there was a musical and dramatic en-
tertainment given at St Joseph's
Church, by Father Menard, for the
purpose Of raising funds to complete
the payment of the expenses incurred
in the construction of the iron fence
in front of the church grounds.
The entertainment proved satisfac-
tory to the Father and the people, as
all such occasions do in that place.
The people of his parish can well
afford to assist Father Menard in all
his demands for financial aid, as they
know that every dollar will be ex-
pended properly and tor the beautify
ing and improving the church proper

will be gone. Il lasting monument to
his energy, perseverance, and christian
piety.

a regiment of infantry he served with
the gallant South Carolinians through
out that war. Subsequently, he came
into Louisiana and at the beginning
of the war between the States he en-
tered into the contest as a soldier of
heroic 11th Louisiana Infantry Regi-
ment, and became a color sergeant,
one of the most dangerous and respon-
sible positions that a private soldier
could occupy.
Having served throughout that
memorable contest. he settled in this
parish, married a lady Of Lower La
fnurche, and has since been a quiet,
peaceable and industrious citizen,
winning for him the good will and
friendship of all with whom he came
in contact.
For several years he has resided on
Congressman Prices Acadia planta-
ton, and for some time past he had
been in feeble health. His death was
expected at every moment, and finally
it has come, and the good old man is
at rest, awaiting the resurrection OF
the dead. He was receiving a pension
from the Government for his services
in the Mexican war. He leaves a
widow and one son.

The Steamer Pelican gave an ex-
cursion party to Lockport last Sunday
to visit the fair then gong on in that
thriving little city. Some IS persons
made the journey, and besides having
a good view of the two ~crevasses run
ming, and the effects of these disasters
on the unfortunate citizens living in
the pathway of the mad waters, they
had the pleasure of meeting many of
their friends in and around Lockport,
who were attending the fair.
This was a satisfactory entertain
ment and will aid materially the Rev.
Father in charge, TO complete the con-
struction of the banquette upon which
the people can 60 to, and return from,
church at all times, with dry feet.
This will be Il great convenience,
to every citizen of Lockport and one
they merit. for they permit no COM
munity to excel them in good works
and in genuine hospitality.

Mistake, Mistaken.

The use of this word seems to be 30
anomalous as to need some inquiry and
explanation.
! may be mistaken, for ! continually
make mistakes. But when shown to
have been mistaken own myself in er-
TOT. Yet, if am mistaken, is it not the
error Of him who mistakes meY But 1t
may be that l am right and that he is
mistaken, though l suppose that ought
to take him Alright and not mistake him.
Nevertheless I often have to say In ar
gument: "You were quite right. / was

In word, though he who mistakes
must be in error, our common use Of
language considers him who IL mistaken
to be so.-Notes and Queries.

Celtic Melancholy or Joy.

In the Irish dirges and laments there
is great similarity to the music Of the
west highlands, only the Irish music
having been written In most instances
for the harp-which has all the notes Of
the voice--is music Of full and sweet
harmonies and has not the omissions
and deficiencies of the pentatonic scale
in which all music for the pipes was
written. While the melancholy Of the
Celtic people finds adequate expression
in these laments-plaintive, wailing airs,
something between recitative and mel
ody-another and not less characteristic
side Of the Irish temperament is very
truthfully illustrated in their songs Of
humor.
About these there is an inimitable raci-
ness, fresh and sparkling wit, spon-
taneous ring of chatf and fun, with a
dash of chivalrous sentiment and an airy
lightness which gives to them the unmis-
taxable Hibernian accent and to which
there is no exact counterpart in the
songs of England or Scotland.-London

Baised For Catfish and caush. an Owl.


A man Of unquestioned veracity
vouches for the truth of this fish story:
His friend, who lives few miles In the
country, set line for catfish one day.
In the morning when he went after the
fish he found them In abundance, and
on one line he found large owl that
must have been terror to birds ami
fishes when alive. The line was wound
around the body and the neck of the
owl. and the fish bore marks Of the owls
talons, showing that the owl had caught
the fish after the hook had caught Il.
and in its efforts to fly away with the
fish 1t had been ensnared by the line,
after which the fish had its inning by
drowning the owl.
At any rate the owl was dead, and the
fish, though disfgured, was still In the
swim and playing the line with vigor
that caused the line to bob up and down
with the irregularity of the cotton mar
ket. The drowned owl is on exhibition
as witness to the truth of the story
and the fish, though the finest of the
catch, escaped the frying pan. and now
has steady job as an owl catcher. The
fisher set him for owls. s.--valdosta Cor
