Mrs. Simon Lewis, a former resi-

daughter, Mrs. Isaacs, of vicksburg,
were visitors to our town this week
This is the good lady's first visit to
her old home since her husband, the
late Simon Lewis, left here fifteen
years ago. Mr.. Lewis was merchant
here before and after the war, and by
his honesty aud thrift amassed con-
siderable fortune. Their sons are now
filling high stations in the honorable
caIIings of life, some of them being
graduates of Harvard. Mrs. Lewis is
still in the prime of health, and we
hope many years of good health aud
happiness are still in store for her.
Her old friends here gave her a
cordial welcome. Mrs. Lewis is the
guest of Mrs. Stein, one of her old
friends. Mrs. Isaacs returned to her
home in Vicksburg on Wednesday

REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.

To the Hon. F. F Montgomery, Judge OF
the 7th District Court
We, your Grand Jury duly empan-
eled, having completed our labors
herewith submit our report:
We have examined twenty-five
cases, and found twelve true bills.
We appointed committee to ex-
anime the jail, clerks and sheriff
offices and found them neatly kept
aud in good condition.
We found the court house in a
badly dilapidated condition, and re-
commend to the proper authorities
that it be repaired.
Numerous cases have been brought
to our attention of persons riding on
the levee and we failed to take action
owing to the terrible condition of our
roads, and we earnestly suggest that
the Police Jury take early action,
which in our opinion will obviate the
necessity of using the leyee as road
ways.
We now respectfully ask to be dis
charged.

tied in the system, it greatly lessons
the severity of the attack and has often
cured in q single day what would

Cbas. Henry Scott, constable Of the

the Distric: Court for perjury aad
was acquitted by the jury. The evil
dence against him was point blank
and the District Attorney made out a
clear case, but still this jury had the
gall to come into court and pronounce
him not guilty. These men failed to
do their duty. 1t is all right when
there is any doubt, to give that donbt
to the prisoner, but where there is no
doubt and clear case has been made
out, the prisoner should receive what
he deserves.

The grand jury after remaining in
session five. days only found twelve true
bills, the smallest number returned
that we can remember. This speaks

frivolous matters that were brought
before them, which was a big saving
in costs to the parish.
