Detecting a Smuggler.

A treasury agent, speaking of the
watchfulness of Uncle Sans officials,
said: "A handsomely dressed man got
off a ferryboat and seemed to be unusu-
ally nervous. A moment more and he
was strugglingin the hands of the Off
GERS and desperately clutching at the
lapels of his coat. It's no use, the
officers remarked; we know what you
have and where it is. Better. give it up
and save trouble. Apparently crushed
by the discovery, the man quietly as
sisted in opening seams and produced
the diamonds from various portions OF
his clothing. Your shoes, please? This
rather staggered him, but he submitted
with good grace, and one of the heels
being unscrewed another lot, though
smaller and less valuable than the first,
was found there. The diamonds were
examined and pronounced to be splen-
did article of paste, worth about 20
cents each. This did not satisfy US, and
the man was stripped to the skin. A
huge piece of sticking plaster was on
his back, which was removed, and I'M
der it were concealed scores of genuine
diamonds. 1t is not often that ruse
is so adroitly planned and practiced. "

Henry W. GradY's Arrangement of the
Liquor Traffic.


In Southern Temperance Magazine.
"Tonight it enters a humble home to
strike the roses from woman's cheek,
and tomorrow it challenges this republic
in the halls of congress. Today it strikes
a crust from the lips of starving child,
and tomorrow it levies tribute from the
government itself. There is no cottage
in this city humble enough to escape it,
no palace strong enough to shut it out.
1t defies the law when it cannot coerce
suffrage. Il is flexible to cajole, out
merciless in victory.
cit is the mortal enemy of peace and
order; the despoiler of men and terror of
women, the cloud that shadows the
face of children, the demon that has dug
more graves and sent more souls I'M
shrived to judgement than all the pesti
lences that have wasted life since God
sent the plaques to Egypt and all the
wars since Joshua stood beyond Jericho.
Il comes to ruin, and it shall profit main
ly by the ruin of your sons and mine. 1t
comes to mislead human souls and to
crush human hearts under its rumbling
wheels. 1t comes to bring gray-haired
mothers down in shame and sorrow to
their graves. 1t comes to change the
wife's love into despair aud her pride
into shame. 1t comes to still thelaugh-
ter on the lips of little children. 1t
comes to stile all the music of the home
and fill it with silence and desolation.
1t comes to ruin your body and mind, to
wreck your home, and it knows it must
measure its prosperity by the swiftness
and certainty with which it wrecks this
world"

sHREVEPORT'S EXPOSITION.
Entries are Pouring in From all Over the
Country.

OVuHRt'
As the time draws near for the
opening OF Loulsianas Ninth Annual
State Fair, the interest seems to be
more than rpdoublcd, and the best
evidence Of this is in the number OF
entries being daily made in all OF the
departments.
Especially is this tho case in that
section of exhibits in which the
ladies take g ppclal interest, le., the
"Ladies Dep Artment,' as specified IN
the catalogue, embracing the various
exhibits of needlework, embroidery,
millinery, braiding and lace work,
fancy and ornamental specimens OF
hair, shell, bead, wax and coral work,
which only the deft fingers and true
ideals Of wOmans brains can make SO
attractive, but also the oraF and
the "Art" departments in which wo-
man, by her pue nature, terms as IN

drops at night to exhale its fragrance

ing sun, giving its incense of praise

natures benediction to awakening
life.
Not only in these departments
I however, is woman interested, the
"Educationaln is with her a strong
attraction, fer in this is the advance
ment of the coming generations cen
tered, and she, probably even more
so than man, appreciates what edu'
cation means to the coming genera
tions.
Nor does she forget the home and
its comforts, and as the good house
wife, she comes as one OF the most
potent factors in the agricultural
department, and gives evidence Of
her ekill by her eutries a11d displays
in five out of six Of thu classes in this
department in the catalogue, viz
Dairy, honey etc ; preserves, home
fmade: canned fruits, ETC.; pickles
homemade, and last but first, breat
and cakes.
In all of the departments we have
mentioned, the ladies from all owe
the country are making entry afte

the exhibits will prove very attrac
tive.
Reduced rates will be given visitor
over all lines, and every one shoul'
