The Bijou Theater.

"a Milk White Flag" which will be
presented in this city at the Bijou next
week, with all the elaborate scenery and
the same extravagant scenery which
characterized it's enormous success for
more than 200 nights at Hoyt's theater,
and most ambitious piece Of work Mr..
Hoyt has yet done. 1t is purely Hoyt-
ian, yet the author appears to have
reached out further and higher than IN
any of his other productions. The play
deals with the state militia, and Is the
sharpest and keenest sort Of satire On
our citizen soldiery, and, yet this clever
playwright SO adroitly Yields his shafts
Of wit that it is impossible for even
those whom he makes his target to take
offense. 1t is said that laughter is
incessant from the rise of the curtain
to it's fall and such a thing as a lull is
not permitted. Music has been abnnl-
antly supplied. So much so that the
piece takes on the appearance of opera,

rectors. It Is they who through him
receive the money for the bank. To
construe the statute as applicable only
to the agent Of the bank who performs
the physical act of receiving the de-
post, or connives at it, would nullify
the statute, for the receiving teller, as
rule, has no opportunity to know,
and in fact does not know, the finan-
cial condition of the bank. If, then, the
directors knowing the bank to be insol-
vent, can make use of such teller to
receive the deposits for the bank with
out mourning on their part any civil or
criminal liability, the statute is farce.
Such is not the case, for the hand of
the teller is the hand of the directors,
SO far as he acts by their authority and
direction. He has no independent vo-
lition or will in the premises.
"Now the complaint specifically
charges that the defendants as direc-
tors, knowing the bank to be insolv-
ent, by an officer authorized so 20 do,
did receive the deposit in question, then
knowing that the bank was insolvenc.
This is sufficient allegation that they
themselves received the deposits within
the meaning Of the statute. The COM
plant also showed upon it's face that
the plaintiffs loss of his deposit was the
direct result of the defendants failure
to obey the statute and to discharge
the duty they owed to him, to refrain
from receiving deposits when they
knew the bank to be insolvent.

an object lesson in good citizenship Inc
statue Of a brave soldier, of a general,
is an object lesson in courage and loyal
ty to country. The statue Of a scholar
is an object lesson in science. Every
mark of honor given to the memorials
of men of renown, is honor given to
the men themselves. No sane man will
pretend that the solemn ceremonies I'M
der which the statue Of hero or states
man is unveiled for public honor, are
intended to do honor to granite or
bronze. Men, in such cases, do not offer
homage to the statue, but to him who
is honored by this public memorial. This
impulse, instinct in the human heart
las found expression in memorials and
monuments, ever since men believed
that honor should be given to men VINO
deserve we'll of their fellowmen.
Why then should not religion remem-
illustrious models of exalted virtue, in
order that men may be inspired with
fervid zeal to initiate the attractive ex-
ample Of those whose superior virtue
has made their memories fragrant
among men?
II scripture and painting are sum-
moned to the service Of science, of pa
triotism, pleasure or valor, why should
not religion invite the genius of art to
immortalize the influence of its sublime
lessons on noble souls? The Catholic
church has made art her handmade. The

Why was the lottery proposition
rejected by the people Of this State?
Answer this, men who are satisfied
because estate bonds are at par
and answer it loud enough for all
civilization to hear you.-Shreve-
port Progress.
Because the United States Gov
eminent took hand, which fact
caused the projectors to abandon
the contest. Had it not been for
the interposit!on of the general
government, who can say but what
we would have had the lottery fas-
tened upon us to-day? But we
fail to see the connection between
'sthe rejection of the lottery
proposition" and the estate bonds
at par" Were not the bond hold
ers and lottery managers in the
same boat? Permit us to confess
our ignorance of the motive behind
the Louisiana politicians by ask
ing for information in the matter.
-Catahoula News.
The Progress was not aware that
the Louisiana politicians had ask
ed about it at all they certainly
did not through this paper, AS
matter of fact they had nothing to
do with it. Our query grew out of
a little discussion between The
Progress and some friends, hone st.
Christian gentlemen, over it's criti-
dism of the Executive for the par
don of Desforges: they making
the rejoinder, 81 know that State
bonds are worth their face value
on the market: the inference being
his would atone for the unholy,
facilitating act. And now to the
reference to the lottery. All the
civilized world, nearly, knows the
proposition of Mr.. John A. Morris;
it was an offer of ST $50, 900 per an
mum for twenty-five years, for the
privilege of the lottery franchise
during that period. It was a

Sometime ago The Progress cop
led comment from the Morgan
City Review and ST. Martinville
Messenger" the subject being lazy
boys apd pretty girls. OF course
when the subject of pretty girls is
raised, The Progress will always
have say, and it told of what our
city could towards producing
such flowers, excelling, of course
any hamlet, village, town, or city
in the Union. But-jest to keep
out of trouble of course-several
of our contemporaries have COM
plimented their own girls, who by
the way are pretty sure enough:
Pretty girls, you say? Well if
you wish to see real pretty girl,
you should dome to Arcadia, and
as for lazy boys, why you could
not find one anywhere within six
miles of this place. We do not
wish to advertise them too much,
for fear that they will not be here
long; they are going East enough.

Baton Rouge has no lazy boys
at all. In it's entire history it only
had three, and at q public indig-
nation meeting they were driven
from town-one going to Shreve-
port, another to ST. Martinville,
and the last to Morgan City. AS
for pretty girls, why look-a-here
Hicks, Jolly and you other fellow
from Morgan City, you amt in it.
Why, the girls in Baton Rouge are
so wretts and sweet that the boys
can't look upon them in their nat
ural beauty without eating them
up alive-hair-pins, buckles and
all, and in order to protect them
selves, some of the girls wear
bloomers, some hitch-on bangs,
other chew gum and three or four
of the prettiest paint like regular

versation he had with Mrs. Rubio. now
Mrs. Warner, about the will, and the
witness stated emphatically that she
never made any suggestions about the
will, and that no one did save Mrs. Alan
IL herself.
An attempt was made by Judge Brous-
seau to interrogate Mr. Mcdonald about
conversations with Mrs. Alaniz, de-
signed to show that the aged lady was in
full possessions of her mind and native
shrewdness when the will was made,
but Mr.. Mcdonald was hampered by
having been Mrs. Alaniz's attorney as
well as agent, and Attorney Appel
smiled gleefully when he succeeded in
choking off these interesting conversa-
tions. on the ground that they were
privileged communications.
Alfredo Pico, the coachman of Mrs.
Rubio, testified to the part he had taken
in witnessing the will. and then was put
through an exhaustive examination by
Attorney Appel, without, however, any
very material testimony being ELECTED.
Nine. Cassenave again took her seat
upon the witness stand and testified to
a variety of matters tending to show the
business shrewdness of her aunt. She
told how the old lady had supervised the
drawing Of the plans for the house on
Crocker street; made alterations to suit
her and attended to the smaller details
of painting and papering.
This witness was under cross-examin-
alton when court adjourned.
