GOVERNMENT OWNER.
SHIP OF RAILROADS,
TO BE DISCUSSED BY PICK
ED NORMAL STUDENTS.
Will be an Interesting Feature
OF the commencement Ex.
ercises.

With its usual good taste, the
Normal management has selected a
subject for its annual commence
ment debate that is interesting and
beneficial alike to the public, and
to its students /; Public Owner
ship of Railways and Telegraphs.
The bi-weekly debate between
representatives of the two literary
societies is one of the helpful and
entertaining after-schoOl exercises
of the Normal course during the
whole session; and at the COM
mencement these two societies Sc
lect their best material and prepare
for final contest in which all the
arts and powers of forensic battle
are brought into play, making these
fraternal but spirited displays of
opposing oratory rank well up
with the other excellent features
o. the commencement exercises.
The popular interest in the sub
iect chosen, together with the per-
sonnel of the debaters, give prom
Use of quite treat to those so for
tunate as to hear the debate at the
approaching season.
The subjects reads ''Resolved
that the government should own
and operate the railroads and tele-
graphs" The affirmative side will
be supported by Mr.. II. f. Walk
er of Winn parish, a member of
the Senior Class, and II years
of age; associated with him
is Miss Louise Gilbert of Baton
Rouge, a member of the Gradua-
! ting Class, The negative side is
defended by Mr.. X. b. Butler
of St. Landry parish, grad
uate at the close of last half scs
sion, assisted by Miss Emma Kear-
ney of Natchiroches, Il member of
the Graduating Class.
The debate takes place at he
Comus Club Hall, this city, on
Tuesday evening at s o'clock, and
should be heard by every one, as
both sides have taken great pains
to inform themselves, so as to be
instructive as well as practical.

An Accident.

Quite a serious accident occur
red on Tuesday morning last at
the corner of Sd and st. Denis
streets. An old gentleman, Mr..
Samuel Parson, over so years of
age, slipped and fell, causing as
we learn, serious internal injuries.
He was picked up by persons pass
ing who assisted him home.
The crossing referred to is very
bad and has long been a cause of
complaint on account of its steep
incline, which in bad weather is al
most impossible. The hill should
be graded, and We trust that our
City Fathers will sec that it is
done.

Church service

Church service
We had the pleasure of attend
ing the regular service of Pastor
Nj. E. Weaver at the Cane river
Baptist church, near Barkley P. o.,
about s miles from town. The
citizens of that progressive COM
munity have lately completed a
large, elegant and comfortable
church house, and furnished it with
all modern conveniences and style,
and they have every reason to feel
proud of this testimonial to their
enterprise and devotion to a cause
so worthy.
The house, though capable OF
easily seating $50 persons, was
well nigh filled, and in the audi
ence were some from Red river
near St. Maurice, from Cane river,
IL miles below, and from Natchi-
toches, s miles above.
After a splendid sermon and the
reception into the church, by letter,
of Mrs. Susan Holloway, the con-
gregation repaired to the bank Of
the river near by to witness the
baptism of Miss Sutton, when the
services were ended.
We had the pleasure of taking
dinner with Mr.. r. E. Lee, who
lives very near the church-in fact
to whom the land on which it If
built belonged before he donated II
to the church.
While the only harm we wish
Mr.. Lee is, that some gifted,
sweet-tempered woman might cap
ture him and his well-ordered
house, and turn it into veritable
Heaven on earth, we must say thai
comfort and taste was every where
apparent on his premises, and thai
Burns was mistaken In some instan'
ces at least, when be wrote:
Bachelors hall, what a quare lookir
place it is!
Kape me from sich all the days of me
loife.
Sure, but think what burnin disgrac<
it Is,
Never at all to be gsttin woifs.'
