An accident, that might have been
serious, occurred on the Thibodaux
Branch Railroad last Monday evening.
A the train was coming up church
street, near St. Johns cemetery, the
supports for a car load of Lumber,
lust in front Of the passenger coaches,
gave way, precipitating q portion Of
the load to the earth. Some of the
pieces in falling struck the front Of
the passenger coach. breaking through
and extending backward some dis
lance into the same.
Fortunately there were no passen-
gers in the front seats, otherwise fatal
injuries might have been received.
Careless loading caused this troll
BILE. Tn props or nprights in the
side of the car which are intended to
hold the lumber in position, were
composed Of mater rail too weak tn
sustain the weight Of the load, which
is generally said t" be about double
the quantity allowed for each a to
transport.

ST. VALERIE SCHOOL.

A very pleasant conclusion to the
above school, was given in the after
noo of June %. 1895. by the Teach
ers to . limited number of invited
guests. The exercises consisted Of
songs vocal and in chorus. rotations
etc. calculated to bring out the varied
talents of the little pupils. Miss IIo-
gan was the chosen valedictorean who
acquitted herself admirably we'll.
st. Nalerie's school was organised
in 1868 Oy the Misses Naquin who for
q years have been the principal
teachers therein. 1t is n preparatory
school for boys and girls. in which,
the youthful minds are taught how to
study. to yield to discipline, and to
prepare for admission into higher
schools when they become Of a proper
age to do so. This school. during the
last sessions had about so pupils which
is all average of the number generally
attending Its sessions.
Judging from the number of prizes
that the pupils carried away the con-
clusion is inevitable that the disci-
pine of the school must be good, the
instruction explicit and plain, and the
application of the pupils constant and
faithful.
The exercises having been conclnd-
ed the guests were favored with a
bountlful supply of delicious ice cream
and luscious cakes, whilst the kind
teachers led the pupils to II soda stand
and treated their little scholars to a
coal and soothing beverage.
