NTALLUXURY AT HOME

The wonders of the Orient lay re-
vealed before the eyes of all who care
to see them, and that, too; without it
being necessary to journey to lands
across the seas.
The Oriental never does any more
work than is necessary, and when not
working, his engrossing care is to
make himself comfortable. In many
respects the art of living appears bet
ter understood in the East than in
our bustling Western world.
There is now hardly a fashionable
home that has not its Oriental room
or rooms, or at least it's coy corner;
sometimes the latter is Japanesque in
effect, sometimes Turkish; but what
ever it is, be sure it is the result of an
inner craving for the beautiful things
of life.

etc.-a trip by the Oahu Railway
to Eva Plantation on Pearl Har-
Dor, and, grandest of all, an excur-
sion to the famous volcano of XII

the world, and forming with it's
terrible lakes of fire one of the most
magnificent sights ever witnessed.
The volcano is on the island of
Hawaii, and the trip thither, occu-
plying about eight days, includes a

seeing rounds, the party will leave

POLITICS..

The local or parish polite is be-
ginning to take shape. For the
past four years The officers had
the field to themselves, no sign of
opposition was apparent; of late
however, things have changed and
a nucleus is formed, and to all ap-
pearances, under very favorable
circumstances for the opposition.
Groups of individuals in secret
conversation can be seen at all
times everywhere, and if our in
formation is correct, the present
incumbents will have Il hard fight
to make to retain the power, or
even to capture the parish delega-
ton to the state nominating con-
ventiOn.
The political situation is grow
ing interesting to the disinterest-
ed lockers on, who enjoy the trou.
bic and anxiety of the aspirants
for Office.
The more we approach the time
for the election the more interest.
ing the situation will be, and the
greater will be the fun for the vO-
tiers and spectators.

THE LAKE BRIGDE.

The board of trade at its meet
ing Friday of last week discussed
the possibility of building the
lake bridge.
The only possible way to rca-
lie the amount necessary for the
construction of said bridge would
be by levying special tax, the
majority of the people of st. Mar
tinville, we believe, are in favor
of taxing themselves to secure
this bridge, but before this step
can be taken it is necessary to
look into the matter in a legal
way and ascertain if it will hold
before the law in case of Op-
position that may occur, for it is
reasonable to expect some opposi-
ton, from a few who will prOba-
bly, dislike to pay a little increa-
sed tax.
For this reason, action in the
matter will be delayed until the
committee of attorneys who is
composed of Messrs. Dan. W.
VOORHEES,, Frank T. Guilbeau and
James Simon, to search the law
and report to the board Of trade
and submit their opinion as to the
legality of a special tax. If this
is not possible, the board will
have to devise some other means
of raising the funds for the con.
struction of the bridge that will
bring such an increase of business
in the town.

New Uses For Peat.

German chemists have been ex-
perimenting with Irish peat, and
have secured such remarkable re.
suits that syndicate has been
formed for the manufacture, on a
commercial scale, for the various
products that may be obtained
from Ireland's bog lands. One Of
these products is an antiseptic
"wool" for dressing wounds. 1t
possesses absorbent qualities so
great that it will soak up nine
times its weight of moisture.
The medical department of
the French army has adopt
ed this substitute for lint,
and 10000 kilogrames of it
were sent with the peditionary
force to Madagascar. By differ
ent process of chemical treatment
the peat is formed into a material
from which any article requiring
hardness and durability can be
produced. The German syndicate
has now on exhibition In London

bearings, gun stocks pianoforte

Suppression of the Clan Maceregor.

Suppression of the Clan MacGregor.
The Act specially directed
against the Clan McGregor lisa very
curious piece of legislation indeed,
and was no doubt before Sir Wal
ter Scott when the great novelist
wrote "Rob Roy" The title of
this Ubiquitous statute is simply
"Anent the Clan Gregor," and it
proceeds to ratify and approve
the former penal enactments
"against the said wicked and re-
beilious clan of MacGregor," and to
ordain that every man OF that
name shall, as he arrives at the
age of IS, and yearly thereafter,
appear before the Lords OF the
Privy Council upon the oath day
OF July, and there find caution for
good behaviour and obedience in
all time coming, and that If any
fail in appearance sit shall then be
lawful to any of His Majesty's
lieges to take and apprend them,
and to present them to the sheriff
of the shire or his deputy, to the
effect that they may be presented
before the lords OF the Privy
Council, there to be taken order
with as officers" This precious
Act goes Oh to provide that IL any
person in apprehending Mac

christen (baptise) a child by the
name of Macgregor on pain of
losing his living: and that who
ever shall supply any member OF
the clan with meat, drink, or lodg-
ing, or any other necessaries,
"shall be punished in their bodies,
goods, and. gear, as intercom-
mupers with rebels and sorners."
Finally, it is enacted that all goods
and gear belonging to MacGregor
so arrested should thenceforth be.

wonder, indeed, that in face OF
