Following the Equator.

This is the name OF Mark
Twain's latest work and is said to
be among his very efforts, if it
does not really excel all of his
works, The last is the opinion Of
many excellent judges.
OF this work Rev. VIM. H. La
Prade, pastor Of the First Metho-
dist Church of this city says:
"Aside from the rich entertain
ment furnished by "Mark Twain"
his books of travel are of great
value, and he writes from the
viewpoint Of a totally unpreju-
diced observer. His philosophy,
half hidden under his quaint hui
NOR, is superior to much found in
so-called religious books. This
new work will, l am sure, be cheap
at any price. WIN. H. LAPRADE.
Shreveport, Oct. 26, 1897.
Mr.. Walter Gregory is the agent
for this parish. He showed us
the Prospectus and we are muchly
pleased with it. In fact DR.. La
Prade's comment-with all who
know and ofthe gentleman-would
be ample to induce all to speak
favorably Of the work.
While well know in our city Mr..
Gregory has, personally. a small
acquaintance in the country. He
will shortly start for that portion
of our parish and The PROGRESS
hopes its friends will give him a
hearing.

Look at Your Roof.

1 am here yet, but will stay but
a few days longer. But l hate to
leave behind me any leaking roofs,
because I want all to be comfor-
table and keep out of the wet. So
look at your roofs and let me know
and l will fix them before go.
w. B. Weaver, the roof painter,
619 Butler street.

OUR TICKET.

THE PROGRESS presents to its read
ers and the public the names OF the
gentlemen whom the Caddo Demo-
cratic Club has put forward as
delegates to the constitutional con-
vention from our parish.
While these gentlemen represent
that wing of the Democracy which
is opposed to the One Man Poauer
exercised by Governor Foster and
the imperious dictatorship of Mr..
j. Nj. Foster in this parish; while
they stand for that class of the
Craddo Democracy which believes
in home rule and the rights Of the
people to a voice in party councils
and the selection of those who shall
represent and govern them, the
candacy of Captain Simon Levy,
Jr., and Hon. L. B. Phillips has
deeper meaning.
In the first place they present a
union Of the commercial and agri-
cultural interests, than which no
avocation is closer to the masses
nor of more vital Importance to
their temporal condition. Agricul-
ture and commerce are the chief
elements of business interest of
our State and appeal at once to the
attention and consideration of all.
Next, these gentlemen, are repre-
sentative citizens of the county and
city, presenting an amalgation
where thought and deliberation
must be for the common good
rural and urban.
And then the personnel is par ex-
cellence. Both are ideal represen-
tatives of the great masses. Both
are commoners-men of the peo-
ple-who have asso ciated with and
acted with the masses. There is
not a better known man in all our
city and parish than Capt. Simon
Levy, Jr. In all things pertaining
to the public veal he is central
figure. Whatever is considered the
best for public good in all things
that the people think our city and
parish Will be Dettered, ne Is al
ways an active worker and a
liberal contributor of money. In
matters of charities no man or
woman in parish is more liberal.
A splendid business man, he has
been eminently successful in life
and has reached a condition of
financial ease, and has done SO
having the confidence and esteem
of all persons who have ever had
dealings with him as well as high
position in the public's favor.
Hon. L. B. Phillips is an ideal
type of the intelligent and pro-
gressive farmer. Energetic, up
right and enterprising, a friend of
the masses, a liberal and conserva-
tive thinker and active participant
in all things which benefit the
people, he has gained prominent

LYNCHING in TEXAS.
An Angry Mob Hangs Gene Washington
on the Strength OF Unsupported
CirCumstantial Evidence.

Galveston, Tex, Jan. 24.-Details Of
the lynching Of Gene Washington, who
committed the criminal assault on Miss
Dehait at the home of her brother-in-
law, Brooks, last night four and a half
miles north of Bryan. Tex, have been
received here. He was hung to a tree
in front of the First National bank on
Main street in that town at $50 last
night by an armed mob. He was
identified by an Irishman, with whom
Washington was walking on the rail-
road track near Brooks house, and
whom he left ostensbly to go to the
house to get a drink of water and get
something to eat. The Irishman, when
he reached Benchley, a station south
of Bryan heard of the outrage and
then told about the negro leaving him.
The time corresponding with the time
the outrage was committed, the Irish
man was brought back. He recognized
Washington among a dozen other ne
Sroes as the man who was with him
last Thursday afternoon.
When the identification was made 500
men We're around the jail, and despite
the appeals of the district Judge county
judge, Sheriff Num- and other promi-
nent citizens to allow the law to take
its course, they made dash on the
jail. overpowered the sheriff and depu-
ties and took the negro out and hanged
him. Washington, who was about q
years of age and coal black, denied
his guilt to the last. A tag was pinned
to his clothes, reading: This is the
fate of all rape offenders"
After the hanging, the mob dispersed
leaving the body suspended.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
WnlI street Review,

New York, Jan. 23.-Neither the fav-
orable bank statement nor the fact
that the clearing house exchanges for
the week showed gratifying increase
in clearings, compared with last year
had any influence on the stock market
today.
Tobacco stock led the downward
movement, dropping from 76 to 1915.
Sugar ran off from 1l79s to 116R;
Leather preferred from 621a to 61bs and
Manhattan from 91% to 905s. In the
general run of stocks the losses were
1a to 1 per cent. a considerable short
interest was created and as the session
drew to close there was a disposition
to even up contracts. Tobacco rallied
