Caffery and nearly all the members
of the Franklin bar, it isssafe to say
that the interests of the State will
not suffer under the watchful eye
Of Mr.. Gordy:
The next names drawn from the
box proved to be those of Agricole
Fuselier, John F. False and O. W..
Brown. Juror Brown could either
'sconvict or acquit' on the street,
but Under oath he would be guided
by the evidence. The State here
upon challenged Brown for equivo-
cation and contradiction in the ex-
animation. Counsel for the de-
Tense, Senator Caffery, objected to
the disqualification of the juror and
claimed that the overheated zeal of
the district attorney led him to see
disqualiications where none existed.
The district attorney, Mr.. Gordy,
replied that lie was i. court to per-
form a simply duty, and that no as
pensions could swerve him from a
determination to secure fair-minded
and honest jurors. He believed
that the juror had equivocated, and
even if the court ruled against him
he would still believe it. Mr.. CAT
ferry disclaimed any intention of
casting any reflections.

DIED,

Wednesday night at 1920, Mrs.
Thos. d. Coleman, born Cecile
Philomene Mouton, aged SO years.
The death Of this estimable lady
was learned with deep regret and pro-
found sorrow by many people out
side Of her family. There was not
better Christian, a truer friend, a
more devoted mother and wife than
the deceased. 1t is hard to realize
that that once happy home which
was the abode of human happiness
is now in the midst of sorrow. It is
there she will be missed. 1t is in
that humble home her virtues shone,
and now that she is gone, it is those
who are left that we'll feel her loss;
they, alone, know what a cruel
blow has been stricken; they need
no eulogy to tell them of the dead
ones worth, and words can not as
suage their grief. Death has
brought that grief to them and
death only will end it.

A New Road.

Thanks to the efforts of Mr.. J. A.
LaNeuville and some neighbors, a
good road has been traced and put
in travelling condition. The road s
quite long and runs from Mr..
LaNeuville's to Hon. Overton
Cade's plantation. A bridge of
considerable magnitude had to be
erected over the pond near Hilaire
Savoy's place; it is ten feet wide,
four feet high and eighteen long.
Near the pond of Norville Vincent
it was necessary to make a four-feet
levee of mile long. The parish
furnished the lumber. 1t required
a great deal of energy to complete
this road which will be of immense
benefit to the people living in the
section through which it runs.

Pilette Again on Top.

The Pilette boys are again victo-
rious. They played the St. Martin
vile club last Sunday and the way
they t'did up" the latter reminded
one of the game played at Oak
Avenue Park on the 4th of July
when the Nine Devils of Lafayette
were SO badly beaten that they have
not yet recovered from the effects
of the defeat. Our Pile:te friends
have proven their superiority over
the neighboring clubs and it is now
in order for them to look after big
ger game.
Last Sunday the st. MartinvilIe
boys came over to Pilctte and a
very interesting contest took place,
resulting in a score of 80 to IA in
favor of Pllette. The pitcher of the
St. Martinvllle club was sick and
was unable to take part in the
game. To this fact the St. Martin
vile boys attribute the easy victory
of their opponents.
After the game was concluded the
Pilette boys treated the visiting
club and their friends who had
come to witness the game to a splen-
did dinner. 1t is estimated that
nearly 100 persons were seated at
the large table which had been
erected in the Broussard hall. 1t
may not be amiss to say that during
and after the game perfect good
humor prevailed. The Pilctte boys
were delighted with the cordiality
and gentlemanly bearing of their
guests and it is their earnest wish
that they will soon have occasion to
meet again in friendly rivalry.
During the evening the genial Cab
Cardinal, of St. Martinville, ia
vored the crowd with some catchy
songs rendered in his own inimit-
abs style.

A negro attempted TO force an
entrance into the Rigues Hotel dur
ing the night of last Sunday. At
about 3 O'Clock in the morning Mrs.
Bellocq heard peculiar noise COM
ing from a window and she soon
ascertained the cause thereof. She
saw negro's hand industriously
engaged in trying to lift the fas-
tener. The would-be burglar had
passed his hand through the blinds
and in this way had succeeded in
partly opening the window, but luck
lily another fastener placed little
higher prevented him from effecting
an entrance before being discovered
in his evil work. There have been
several attempts at burglary lately
and unfortunately none of the
thieves have been caught, with the
exception of those implicated IN the
Plonsky robbery. There are alto
gether too many idle negroes in this
town and unless they make up their
minds to behave little better the
white people may some day take a
notion tc pursuade them to do SO.

CarenSrO News.

Carencro rejoices that Lafayette
has at last made satisfactory ar
engagements for the establishment
of sugar refinery in the latter
place. 1t will render the farmers
in that vicinity independent of dis
tant mills, and enable them to han
die and deliver their crop at a much
lower cost. 1t will necessarily in
crease the amount of money in cir
culation in the place, as it will give
employment to large number Of
hands. 1t also denotes a dawn of
enterprise, which if followed up,
will place Lafayette in the lead Of
the many progressive towns Of
Southern Louisiana, which lack the
favorable location and wonderful
natural resources enjoyed by that
place. Concert of action, was all
that was lacking to accomplish this
result. The ball has been started.
