Cherokee on a Trip.


ABIrA SPRlNcs, La, Aug. 20, 1894.
Editor Lafayette Gazette:
In our last weeks correspondence,
we made some mention about a
sojourn of few weeks at Cheniere-
ala Croix, on the Gulf Cost That
trip was failure, as by our present
address you can see for yourself.
Friday morning the II instant
Cherokee boarded the Southern
Pacific at Lafayette, reaching New
Orleans the same day at 1880 a. m.
After enjoying the sights of the
Crescent City for two days, we
drifted our sails for parts where
pure air and country quietness could
be had. At the suggestion of DR..
Marrero, one of our good New Or
leans friends, we boarded the East
Louisiana Railroad Sunday and
making as our destination, Abita
Springs. This beautiful health re-
sort is situated in the interior of the
pine forests of St. Tammany parish.
The town is quiet peaceful little
country village, richly Astounding
with sulphur and mineral springs.
The main spring, near the railroad
depot is considered one of the
! was analysed by chemists and found
| to contain lime, iron, magnesia,
potassium and soda in immense
Quantities. There is no question
of doubt that this little pine forest
resort, is one of the healthiest in
Louisiana. The town consists of
four hotels, livery stables, stores,
and with population varying from
400 to 500 residents. The hotel
where eye scribe" is stopping has
had for the past four months from
forty to sixty daily borders, ladies
and gentlemen coming from all
parts of louisiana, Mississippi and
Texas. Still, with all the advan-
tages, that this section possesses,
one cannot compare this parish to
our rich cotton, cane and sugar
farms of South West Louisiana,
Especially Lafayette Parish:) II
is but natural that we should FIND
such a difference, as who does not
prefer stHome Sweet Home" tC
any other place, no matter how rich
and fertile the land may be7 Well,
Gazette, old friend, we hope YOU
are holding your own, as we are
Keeping down ours.
Best wishes from
CHEROKEE

Franklin, where they had been called
to the death bed of Mr.. James
Alpha, who died on the aoth insta
It seems that the departure of
two young ladies for their respective
homes in New Orleans and Opelou-
sas, has been the source of much
regret to young brakeman and a
clerk of this town.
Mr.. H. p. Fournet, of st Martin
Vile, was in town Tuesday, solicit
ing orders for California wines for
which he is genera; agent. Mr..
Fournet has already sold several
barrels of wine in this town and his
trade is constantly increasing.
Sam Levy left Wednesday morn
ing for New York where he goes to
buy goods for the stores here and in
Orange. He was accompanied by
his brothers, Victor and Moses. The
latter would be placed at a school
of that city.
Mr.. james Mitchell, assistant
master mechanic of the Southern
Pacific, has had some pretty flowers
planted near the round house.
This improvement adds very much
to the appearance of the sur
roundings.
We fail to remember the time
when three OF four buildings were
not being built in this town. The
population is steadily increasing and
| by the the time the next census is
taken Lafayette will be ahead OF
the towns that are doing all the
Dragging.
Unless our streets are worked
before fall weather sets in, they
will be wellnigh impossible.
There is time yet, and if the con
dltion of the treasury will permit,
let the town council attend to the
matter at once.

general fund of that lodge toward:

school of that place. This act i:

Death Of Mrs. Alc.x Dupre

Death of Mrs. AlSe$ Dupre
At her residence in Opelousas, Monday
morning, Aug. IS, IIo.tense Gaslrat Mouton,
relic. Of the late Alcce Dupre, aged ~ years.
Quietly. peacefully and without a
last dying agony or clinging grasp
for life, "through the dark valley of
the shadow of DEATH" passed the
soul of this fond, affectionate
mother and loving, gentle friend.
Thus was ended life fraught with
deeds of charity and love, doubly
endeared to those who knew her
affectionate disposition and christian
traits. She leaves sorrowing
! household to mourn her departure
from this life. But why do we
grieve for the dead? Why do we
uplift our hands to Heaven and in
the excess of our grief cali fol
Divine restoration'7 Is it because
we fear for their future ?-if so the
family of this estimable lady shoulo
brush away the lingering tear.
Death would have no pangs, nor the
future a fear, if all could die such
deaths. Calling her chile1en anc
old family servants around her wher
the fluttering of her imprisoned sou
precursored its departure, she bade
them all goodbye. A few moments
elapsed, and her soul, winged it
way from this terrestrial habitatior
into the imma culate arms of Heaven'
angel to be born to heaven o
eternal rest-Opelousas Clarion.

Mother St. Patrick.

To the profound regret of this
community, Mother St. Patrick, the
beloved superior of the Mount Car
mel Convent; left Wednesday for
New Orleans where she will enter
upon the duties of the position Of
Mother General of the order to
which she has recently been elected.
Though feeling confident that
Mother Incarnation will manage the
affairs of the convent with the same
success which has crowned the
efforts of her predecessor, the peo-
pie of this town, and especially the
patrons of the school, are sincerely
sorry that Mother St. Patrick has
been called away. They had learnt
to love her and while happy to note
her promotion, they deeply deplore
her Departure.

Mrs. Arthur BOnvillain.

1t is The Courier's sad duty, to
chronicle the death of a lady who,
during several years of her life spent
in this parish, won for herself many
friends and admires. Saturday last,
in the twenty-eight year of her ter
restrial existence Mrs. Elmire
Noveret, wife of Mr.. Arthur A. Bon
villain, died at her residence, Home
plantation, Cypremort. The de-

life with her husband on the BAYOU
Black plantation of the Bonvillain
Bros. Several months ago Mr..
Arthur Bonvillain purchased the
Home plantation on CypremoIt,
and moved to St. Mary with his
family. His wife, recently con-
sracted dangerous type of fever,
and although the best medical
talent was procured continued te
grow worse until last Saturday,
when death closed the last chapte,
of her young and beautiful life. The
deceased leaves four children tn,
youngest being not quiet one yea
of age and the eldest six years o
age. In the loss of devoted wife

There are many people who
believe that it would be far better
to let the stock eat the grass on our
streets. Owing to the tall weeds
some of our streets are in fearful
condition. Cutters in few of the
principal streets are completely
covered with luxuriant grass afford

all kinds. With favorable weather

A paper in the August -fre'sa which must
attract great attention deals with keely S
navigation, and is written by Clara b. Moore.
1t is review of Keely's wonderful expert
ments and discoveries in the construction of
his system of sympathetic physics, system
that is adverse to all the canons of mechan cal
physics, and which opens up a new world of
force to the student of physical science.
Keeley's researches have lain beyond the
horizon of molecular physics; in the open
field of elemental force, where gravity,
cohesion. inertia and momentum are disturbed
in their haunts and diverted to use; where,
from unity of rigin emanates infinite energy
| in diversified forms. After years of expert.
ment and research keely had discovered
| that the subtle of etheric vapor. which had
eluded his every effort to confine within
| walls of metal, and baffied his every attempt
| to control, is the medium of natures most

which he has now harnessed for navigating

The IISOme Tax.

Atlanta Constitu ton.
Some people are under the impression
that the new income tax is retroa ctive.
This is a mistake. The income tax
clause of the tariff bill states that from and
after January I, 1895, until January I. 1900,
there shall be assessed, levied, collected
and paid annually tax of per cent on the
amount of income over $4,000, and that
this tax shall be assessed by the commissioner
of internal revenue and collected and paid
upon the gains, profits and income for the
year ending December 31st, next preceding
the time of levying, collecting and paying
such tax. The law cannot go into effec
until January 1, 1895, und no income ta'
will be paid until December 81, 1895:
This j. the status of the tax and it is in NJ
sense retroactive. People with big income
will not have to pay the new tax for nearl!
a year and half. In that time they will
grow accustomed to the idea, and will reco 6
nize the justice and equity of the tax.
