Sudden Disappearance Of a Lead
ing Citizen.

On April 10th, Mr.. Zeph Squy.
ers, OF Melder, Rapides parish,
left his home, stating that he was
going to visit his sister on Bayou
BUeuf aud would be back in a few
days. Up to the time of writing
not a word has been heard of Mr..
Squyers and 10 one can be found
who has seen him since he left
home on April 10th Mr.. Sqnyers
is a man about 30 years of age,
has raised "a large family, who are
all married, and he lived on ap-
parent good terms with his wife,
who is now left alone. He has
been justice of the peace for his
ward for many years, and was a
prominent member of the Popu.
list party, which is strong in that
section, a man Of good moral char.
acter and not addicted to drink.
Considerable surprise has been
created by his unexplained and
sudden disappearance. Some thiuk
that he has met with foul play,
but others say that circumstances
point to the fact that Zeph had
become more attached to a certain
widow than to his welded wife,
and has betaken himself to other
fields and pastures new, with the
view of a happy reunion with the
fair siren who alienated his afec.
tons from their legitimate course.

Gil will volunteer a few practical

housekeepers and others.
All trash, vegetable and animal
should be disposed OF by burning

lent and comparatively inexpen-
sive disinfect;lnt can .be made OF
copperas. Two pounds Of copper.
as dissolved in a gallon Of water,

In families where the accumula.
ton Of liquid kitchen offal is com.
paratiyely limited, and there is a
sufficiency Of yard room, it can be
disposed of by scattering it broad

any injurious effects.

"a TEXAS STEER"

It's a pretty hard thing to do when
it comes to giving the public too much
of a good thing, but it has been done,
and will be again, by the people who
have a clever thing and can't get an
other. Mr.. Charles H. HOyt and Mr..
Frank Mckee are probably the most
fortunate firm in the amusement bust
ness in this respect. Each year they
withdraw from the public and place
on the shelf plays that are in the
height of a popularity that would pre-
clude the possibility of a thought Of
their withdrawal entering the minds
Of less fortunate managers. Mr..
Hoyt's new Offering this season will
be "A Black Sheep" In addition to
this Mr.. Mckee has arranged tours for
the following list of Mr.. Hoyt's popu-
lar comedies: "a Texas Steer" "a
Temperance Town." "A Trip to Chi
ma Town" and "a Milk White Flag"
The best and brightest of these, "A
Texas Steer" vii come to the Opera
House Tuesday, April 9Th, just as
well equipped, so it is promised, to
drive away dull care as it has ever
been
