ONE OF TIE GREAT SUCCESSES

During a recent interview with
the manufacturers of Battle Ak

been amply repaid for the enormous
amount Of money which they have
spent for newspaper advertising and
a wonderful increase Of business.
They claimed that they have had an
excellent opportunity to test the adj
vantage of newspaper advertising.
because ever since they siarted,man

enormous profits by giving 10 the

against the manufacturers OF "Batlle

kinds which seem questionable to
business men who possess higher
sense of honor and fair dealing. Not
wiIhstanding all this handicap, the
manufacturers of "Battle Az

FAOS IN MEDICINE.

There are fads in medicine as in
every thing else and a new thing
frequently sells for short time
simply because it is new. But in
medioine, as in nothing else, the
people demand and will be satisfied
only with positive, absolute merit.
The fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla
has stood its ground against all COM
petition. and lis sales have never
wayercd but have remained steadily
at the top, demonstrates, beyond any
doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this
medicine. The new things nave
come and gone but Hoods Sarsa
parilla rests upon the solid fonnda-
lion of absolute merit and its power
TO cure, and its sales continue TO be
the largest in the world.

Delfina, Texas, Oct. 5, 1894
democratic precinct convention was
held at Laguna SEGA, this county, on
the LIST. Delegates to represent pre-
cinct No. 6, in the county convention
to be held on the 10th. were select
ed.
The utmost harmony prevailed,
and the Chicago platform, and the
present democratic administration
both state and county were fully en-
dorsed. The convention was COM
posed of representative men, such as
j. J. Young, w. F. Sprague, Rafael
Vela, J. NJ. Yela, who presided, and
many more of the same class. A
short time ago there was some little
discomfort in political circles here
caused mainly by few aspiring
young men who were not satisfied
with a good thing when they had it,
but wanted it all. But now the old
fable of the man who owned a goose
that laid a golden egg every day is
very applicable to their cases.
MORAL: When you've got good
thing keep, and never quarrel with
your bread and butter.
Ranges are still improving, and
cattle are picking up. More rain is
needed, but the danger of serious
loss to stockmen is past.
In conversation with prominent
gentleman from Starr county the
other day your correspondent learn
ed that the democracy of that
county was better united than ever
before, and that full vote for the
Chicago ticket, and democratic state
ticket would undoubtedly be polled.

ON THE VERGE OF A WAR
Bitter Feeling Caused in a

Shooting.
Politicians Call at the House of a
Negro and Two Deaths
Quickly Follow.

NEW ORLEANS, La, March 2S.-St.
Andry parish, in the western part OF this
State is almost in state of war. Last
evening while party of white men from
Arnaudville were passing on the public
road near the house OF Julien Sicily, a
colored man. in the neigh borhood of Port
Barr, five of them turned aside and called
him out TO have talk with him. He ad
used some threatening language to the
effect that he intended to register and
vote if he died in the attempt. Seeing
that would be against the wishes of the
white people of that section, he had sent a
message by another colored man to DR..
Martin, the leader of the white supremacy
movement of that neighborhood, apologize
ing for his words and promising to take no
part in politics in the future.
The purpose in calling at his house last
night was to assure him that his promises
and apology had been accepted and that
he might feel secure. He refused to open
his door or parley with the men, saying
that if DR.. Martin would come that way
he would come out and talk with him.
Dr. Martin then came and called to him
to come out and talk with him; but in
stead of doing So he opened side window
and instantly shot dead Alcoe Bouett, a
resident OF Grand Coteau and an excellent
citizen and young man Of 10 years OF age.
The men on the outside thereupon fired
into the house, killing Sicily and probably
one other negro. This is DR.. Martin 5
statement OF the occurrence. He is the
leading physician of that section and a
gentleman of the highest standing.

George H. Boughton's election to full
honor as royal academician is the most
popular thing that the academy has done
for long while. He would have achieved
it years ago had it not been for his sweet
good nature in standing out of the way for
younger men, to whom distinctions signify
more than to him, and in always refusing
to make strenuous, embittered personal
question of his selection. He reaps his re-
ward now in seeing everybody rejoice at
| his preferment, not only because he is one
OF the foremost painters of England. but
also one of the soil of the earth at large.

greatness of the poem he says: 81 know
none to be compared with it for power,
pathos and beauty in the same line of
thought and work, except possibly Ec-
clesiates, and magnificent as that is /
can hardly think its author comparable to
Omar either as philosopher or poet. In
