A DESPERATE DARkY'S
Dastardly Attempt to Take the
Life Of Mr.. Felix Landry.

Some people may not know it,
but it is nevertheless a fact that the
hobo element or that class Of timer
trains free of charge, are, with pro-
badly few exceptions, in the habit
OF carrying weapons concealed
about their persons. So common
the lives of railroad trainmen are in
imminent danger if these worthless
are not allowed to ride without mo-
lestatlon. We have been informed
that the negro-hoboes are 1nvaria-
bly, ssheeled" and they have gotten
to be SO bold that upon what they
consider TO be the slightest p.ovo-
cation they bring their death deal
ing instruments into active service.
Some time ago Sheriff Brouss ard
arrested on the abroad tract a num-
Der Of suspicious negroes, and when
searched two of them were found
in the possession of revolvers. Both
are now languishing in Jail. An
endless number of cases may be
cited to illustrate this daily increasing
danger to the lives of the trainmen
who are called at every hour to
evict from the train these desperate
men.
Last Monday night at about half
past nine O'Clock when the local
freight was pulling in at the yards,
Felix Landry, a brakeman, noticed
a negro comfortably seated on a
fat car. He walked up to him and
asked him what he wanted. The
negro explained his mission in Ian
guage more forcible than elegant
and at the same time drew a pistol
and fired at Mr.. Landry who fortu-
nately received the bullet in a
fleshy part of his right arm inflict-
ing only very slight wound. The
negro then seemed satisfied with his
devilish work and for a while held his
pistol pointed at his defenseless
victim who had but one thing to do
and that was to submit to his muir
derous assailant. When the train
stopped the negro jumped off and
made his escape. The auth critics
we're informed of the occurrence
and the necessary measures were
taken to capture the would be muir
dercr, who has not yet been caught,
but Deputy Sheriff Nlouton acted
promptly IN the matter and it is be-
lieved that he will be behind the
bars before many days.

The School Board, at it's last
meeting has appointed Miss Frances
S. Greig principal Of the Lafayette
High School. In conversation with
a member of the board we were in
formed that the services of Prof.
LeRoScn were not retained because
of the boards inability to pay him
the required salary. Miss Greig is
a graduate of the Normal school
and is we'll qualified for the posi-
ton to which she has been ap-
pointed, but it is to be regretted tn |,
the board could not see its way
clear to retain the services Of Prof.
LcRosen under the same conditions
as last year. The professor had
been in charge of the high school
since its opening and we believe
under his management the school
has done as well as could be OK

n REFINERY
VIII, i'll all Probability, be Built
On MIR. &. a. Mouton's Place.

On MIR. &. a. NiOutOn'S Place.
1t may be stated as reasonably
| certain that refinery will be built
on MIR. Chas. A. Mouton's place
near this town. Through the efforts
of Col. Gus. \. Breaux, the bulk
of the capital necessary to build a
good-sized mill has been secured
from persons in New Orleans to
which has been added subscriptions
from citizens of this town and vici-
nifty obtained by committees of gen
tlemen who have been at work since
several days. AT meeting of the
different committees held at Falk's
Opera House Thursday evening
Col. Breaux made a statement ex-
planatory Of the cost of the refinery,
it's size and dimensions. He said
that its capacity would be 800 tons
per day; the building $50 feet
long, 40 feet wide and go feet high;
boiler sheds, 40 by IS feet.
The local committees have sue
ceeded in placing 81 shares at 500,
and as the amount to be raised here
is 5000, only $1,000 remains to be
subscribed This, 1t is believed,
will be easy to raise.
In his remarks before the com
mittees, Col. Breaux stated that
Mr.. Taylor, an experienced and
competent contractor, was expected
to arrive shortly to look over the
site to make the necessary p1epa-
rations to lay the foundation as
soon a practicable. 1t is intended
to begin work not later than next
week. The refinery is to be COM
pleted and ready for operation on
the 14th of October, 1895, in time to
grind the coming cane crop. 1t
is estimated that the capacity of
the mill will be sufficiently large
within a reasonable distance, and
we understand that it will be
built in such a way as to enable an
increase of capacity should if be-
come necessary.
Heretofore farmers in this sec
ton have encountered great diff
Culties in having their cane shipped
to marketable points, and a refinery
within reach of their fields will be
Of incalculable benefit to them
Unless the unexpected should hap
pen and with average good fortune
the intelligent work Of Col. Breaux
and the prompt assistance given
by the Business Mems Association
and its committees will bear fruit
and Lafayette will have that long
wished for refinery.
