. MOST AGREEABLE SUR
PRISE,

On last Wednesday evening, just as
Mr.. Henry Riviere was about to retire
for lest, he was aroused by strains of
nus c on the street in front of his res
ldence, and to bis great surprise he
soon found out that he was being SER
enaded by the st. Joseph Brass Band
and Home Hook and Ladder Fire Co.
NO. |. A greater surprise was, how
ever, III store for him. AS soou as the
band Lad di%scoursed several choice Sc
lectlons OF their repertoire, Capt. r.
K. Mcbride advanced forward, and in
very appropriate ard happy remarks,
presented Mr.. Henry Riviere with a
handsome tiremen badge ofsolid gold
in behalf of Home Hook s. Ladder
Fire Co. No. /, as a token of remem-
brance for his 20 years of active SER
vice in said company. Mr.. Rivlere,
although taken by surprise. with a
heart briniful Of gratitude, accepted
the gift from his brother members in
touching words, expressing his most
hearty thanks.
The badge is a very pretty one and
artistic in design ; it is composed of a
oroach from which hangs by mean Of
golden links tile badge proper on one
side of which a hook and ladder en-
bossed cross each other and upon
which these words are carved "From
Home Hook ard Ladder Co, No. /.
Ihibodaux, La" ana on the reverse of
the badge are carved these words !:
''20 years active service. 1874 to 1884,
Taken by surprise and consequently
unprepared, Mr.. Riyie1e invited the
band and his company to follow him
to the Little Bijou Saloon" of Mr..
Tragic, which they did aud partook
of refreshments and drank to the sue
cess and prosperity of Home Hook &
Ladder Fire Co. No. l.
This company was organized in 1874,
and, to the lamented Mr.. Cyprien Aze-
ma the credit of Its Organization is
due. Mr.. Arena was a warm friend
of this company and helped it along
i'll every conceivable way. Of the
original organizers Only Capt. K. R.
Mcbride, and Mr.. Henry Riviere are
remaining.
Mr.. Riviere is to-day one of the hap
piest men in Thibodaux and we feel
that he has a right to be.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.

WEEK ENDING MONDAY JULY 9, '94.
Partly cloudy, slightly cooler and
showery weather prevailed in Louisi-
ANA during past seven days !; the ear
ly part of the week being snnshiny
whlle the last few days gave a lower
temperature with considerable cloudi-
ness.
The showers of the week reached
the greater portion of the state, but
were too light in character in some Of
the western parishes and also in por-
tons Of the Florida parishes for the
best results to crops. 1t was, howev-
er, a generally favorable week, and
all crops show an improvement over a
week ago; more especially late plant
ed corn. cotton, sweet potatoes and
rice. The rains were entirely too late
TO benefit the early planted corn.
Cotton continues rather small, gen.
orally, but is growing and fruiting
well and promises a good yield. The
crop is clean aud has not yet been af-
t1lcted by worms, rust or shedding,
save a few worms in a few localities.
Late corn is now promising, but the
early plant will do we'll, according to
correspondents reports, to make a
half crop in the greater portion of the
interior of the state. The stimulating
effect of the showers and warmth of
the week was more generally felt by
late corn than any other crop.
RE. is beginning to head but is
needing more rain il the southwestern
parishes as are corr and other crops in
that section. The rice crop is at date
in ii generally good condition, but
better in the eastern part of Louisiana
than III the western, owing to more
rain i'll the eastern parishes.
Sugar cane has continued to improve
and while mostly all laid by, yet there
are some portions OF the lower parish
Is where too much lain inteifered with
this work, and in such localities the
crop will hardly be laid by before ten
days to come. The weather of the
week was most excellent for cane that
was laid by.
High winds are reported on several
days during the week, but without any
serious damage to crops; but it ap-
pears from late reports that the winds
of the 1st and I'd inflicted considera-
BILE damage to old corn III various Of
the interior and northern parishes.
The rains of the past week, ending
at 5 p. III. of Monday, July 8, were as
follows: Alexandria, go of an inch !;

The Wreck OF Democracy.
New York Sun. |

In another respect the influence of
Grover Cleveland upon national politics
has been as potent for the emasculation of
his party as his cultivation of Populism
A man without party, like Cleveland,
must be backed by mob or be without
following, and that mob must be mixed
and uncertain, and, if loyal to his caprici-
BUSINESS, which neither recognizes nor
understands party allegiance, it must be
irresponsible and necessarily offensive to
the community at large The people in
this country are governed by parties, and
just as their respect is great for the prin-
ciple of party politics, so is their aversion
to any effort to displace it with the des-
potism of personal conceit using power
given to it for other purposes The Cleve-
land idea affronts the universal Demo
cratic prejudice, and the party associating
itself with it must surely suffer after the
first spasm of coherency has passed away
While Cleveland is at the head of the
Democratic party, the general instinct
tends toward the organization which still
holds high the spirit Of Americanism, and
that, unfortunately, is the Republican
party.
In the same way, Cleveland has stamp
ed on all American feeling in his foreign
policy. In this intensely partisan repub-
lie, domestic craftsmanship has stopped at
the border with every administration
which has ever governed it before. Our
foreign relations show one general pupose
to sustain, to preserve, or, as occasion
arose, to extend the interests and the pres
tige of the United States The Cleveland
administration is the one exception which
has subjected even the foreign interests of
America to its personal spite against its
politically antagonistic predecessor and to
its craze for the sensational and fantastic
1t wasn't the actual hauling down of the
American flag in Hawaii which made the
American public feel ashamed and cheated
and indignant and vengeful against the
party whose name had been made to cover
the deed but the utterly outrageous re-
pudiation of fair playand honesty in deal
ing with the struggling Hawaiian govern
ment, rejoicing to see, the flag raised, and

Beats all the Holiday Celebrations That Have
Yet Occurred in That Region.
(Presque Isle Star-Herald. }

If one wants to appreciate the fact that
Northern ArOostook now has new rail
road, the place to be sensibly impressed
with the idea is down along the line
where it runs through familiar sections,
for the first time in the county's history
broken in upon by the locomotive. To
one who has always known them in a
condition Of sleepy and peaceful quie-
tude, the racket and uproar of railroading
now going on down through Mars Hill,
Blaine and Bridgewater is something
positively amazing The Star-Herald man
visited Bridgewater Centre last Friday
and Saturday. Friday evening, just after
dark, the editorial ear caught the first faint
whistle of the construction train, then pro-
badly somewhere near RObinson's Mills.
Pretty soon there was a dull rumble in that
direction Gradually the noise swellcd,
and at the crossing on the Boundary
Line Road it was broken by strong,
loud whistle, which testified to the SUI
perior lung power of the B. & A. loco
motive. From the crossing the train
plunged between hills, and forest trees
into hollow, and the roar and racket
that grew on the ear as the long train
came putting along over the UNPUBLISHED
rails and sleepers, resounded for miles
around, and might well have made the
deer, and caribou and bears out toward
Bald Mountain prick up their ears and
wonder what on earth was to pay. Pretty
soon the glare of the headlight broke
through the trees, and the engine blew u
blast that shook Patrick McGowan' S
little candy shop at the Centre to its very
foundations, and with increasing uproar
the amazing apparition of strange noises
and sights shot over the bridge, through
the field to the west, and then disappeared
again in the woods, bound for Houlton.
That is the present daily and nightly ex-
perience down that way and so far as
noise and excitement, and hustle, and
sensation are concerned, one day of it
beats all the holiday celebrations that
have yet occurred down in that great and
growing but heretofore remote and Sc
cluded region of our county.
