pupils of the Lafayette public
school, in accordance with national
custom, observed Thanksgiving by
treating the public to most enter
tanning aud patriotic celebration of
the day. The school-house had
been transformed into veritable
storehouse and products of various
kinds adorned the room, in
great abundance, while :he floral
decorations made most attractive
display. cold Glory" supplement-
ed by an abundant exhibition of
national colors, did honorableservice
and manifested very emphatically,
the national character of the obser-
vance. The exercises were varied,
as will be seen, and, while pleasing
were at the same time instructive.
Altogether the occasion was most
fittingly and appropriately observed.

and skilfully did; he then paid his
undivided attention to ''Bump" and
his gun. He overpowered and dis
! armed him after quite an exciting
tussle.
Before closing this article we will
mention the arrest, four hours after
the commission of the deed, Of the
two negroes who attempted to as
sassinate the railroad agent at Iowa
Junction; the arrest of Joe Anorus,
who shot Mr.. !Alcide Beegnaud; of
Ellie Howard, the notorious thief
and escaped convict from St. Ian
dry; OF Baptist Martin, the negro
who burglarized the home Of Mr..
Dida Mouton. Baptist's bond had
been forfeited and a warrant was
placed in Sheriff Broussard's hands
at 4:5o p. M, and the next day at
4 O'Clock he personally arrested his
man at Victoria, Texas, distance
of over 400 miles from Lafayette
We could keep on and cite in
Vulnerable other arrests to show our
readers Mr.. Broussard's worth as an
officer, but we do not think that is
necessary. We will simply ask the
questions: elias Lafayette parish
ever had a sheriff who has done as
well?'

A Negroes Cowardly Deed.

On the night of the 22d instant
a young man named John Rosenski
was struck down by an unknown
negro and robbed of SIS. Rosenski
had just returned from Abbeville
and was on the way to his home at
Crowley. Upon reaching here on
the night train a strange negro Of
tered to escort him to a boarding
house, and instead of doing SO con-
Quoted him to a field and there as
saulted him on the head with some
blunt instrument and then robbed
young man succeeded in making his
way to the depot, where his pitiful
condition attracted the attention of
the railroad employees, who kindly
Martin and Iolson, who were soon
on the grounds and relieved the un-
fortunate young fellow by dressing
his wounds. The physicians pro-
nounced his wounds very dangerous
and advised that he be sent to the
hospital at New Orleans for proper
care and treatment. Rosenski was
accordingly put aboard the early
morning train and he is now in the
hospital doing as we'll as could be
expected. He is reported on a fair
way to recovery.
Sheriff Broussard and the town
authorities at once began to work
on the case. The sheriff having OBJ
tanned the information that a sus-
picious negro answering the descrip-
tons given by the victim of the as
sailant had left for Beaumont, took !
the proper steps to effect his cap
ture. The sheriff left Sunday after
noon and returned the next morn
ing at O'Clock. The sheriff was !
not willing to take any risk in the
matter and he left the same morn
ing for New Orleans with the negro
for the purpose of Identification by
who was critically ill at
the hospital. AS soon as he saw the |
prisoner he said positively that he
recognized him as his assailant.
The sheriff returned the next day
and placed his prisoner in Jail.
There is said to be other evidence
besides the Identification of Rosen-
Xxi to prove the Negroes guilt.
