Bloody Tangipahoa.

Last Sunday afternoon Walter
Tiger who lives in the Fifth ward,
left home to 90 to Husser's Mill,
three miles distant, to remain over
night. He did not arrive. On
Monday his people became uneasy;
a search was instituted. About
half way between the Tiger place
Husser's Mill the horse that
Walter rode was found dead, the
animals throat having been cut and
head mashed in. Up to the hour
of going to press nothing had been
heard of Tiger. Search is being
made for him.-Amite City Florida
Parishes.
1t has since been discovered that
the horse became unruly and threw
young Tiger to the ground, and in
a spirit of revenge he cut its throat
and beat its brains out with club,
after which he was afraid to 60
home. The Coroner failed to find
young Tigers body, but the fool
killer will get him, if he don't
watch out.

A man in New Orleans, Pascal
Lestelle by name, who keeps sa-
loon on the river front in that city,
was taken in few days since to
the tune of $1,000 90 by purchas-
ing what he supposed to be pure
gold bricks from two Spaniards
who represented that they had
stolen the gold from the custom
house in Buenos Ayres. Lestelle
bought the bricks, although he had
been told that they were stolen
property. He did not discover the
trickery that had been prscticed
upon him until he tried to melt the
metal in order to obliterate the
Buenos Ayres stamps that were on
them. He was even then afraid
TO tell the police of the transaction,
hut his wrath overcoming his fear
he told his tale of woe. One of
the sharpers died the next day, and
the other Que was arrested in New
York City last Tuesday.

Banner Tax Settlement.

Sheriff J. J. Strobe, of st. Tam
many Parish, has received his
quietus from the State and Parish
for the taxes of 1896. The Parish
roll called for *le,72o SO, and the
supplemental roll, 1862 80. Allow
ing for double assessments, and
property adjudicated to the State
At tax sale, Sheriff Strobe collected
the entire amount called for, 3d.
532 72, with the exception of
$772 40, enjoined by the Poitevent
& Favre Lumber Co., in the suit
now pending. 1t will thus be seen
that Sheriff Strobe collected 100
per cent of the tax roll, and We
doubt if there is another Sheriff in
the State that can make as good a
showing. The closest report to it
We have yet seen is that of the
Sheriff Of Caddo Parish, who col
lected 99.l5 per cent of all the
taxes on the roll. 1t is now il
order for Sheriff Strobe to step to
the front and be adorned with the
blue ribbon.
