Dentistry Without Pain.

I have at last solved the problem of
preparing teeth for filling with no
pain. This is done by the recently
discovered electric instrument which
is simple, scientific and painless, and
is applied to the tooth with no dis
comfort to patient, but allows me to
cut out the cavity, or remove the
nerve, without least pain. As you
know, I also extract teeth without
pain.
My Bossier friends and patients
will find me at the same stand.

Final Report Of Grand Jury.

To the Hon. J. T. Watkins. Judge of the Sec
ond Judicial District Court in and for the
Parish of Bossier:
We, the Grand Jury, impannelled
for this, the July Term of your Hon
orable Court, beg to submit this, our
final report.
We have carefully examined 81
cases, which have been reported to
us for violation of the law, and found
40 bills. There remains on the docket
10 cases on which we have been IN
able to get witnesses, hence have
made no examinations, but have
handed a list of these cases to the
District Attorney.
Upon examination we find the Par
ish Jail in good condition, clearly
kept and prisoners we'll provided for.
There are Is prisoners now incarce
rated therein; also two insane per-
sons.
The Court House we find in need
of some repairs. The clustering is
broken and has already began to fall
from the ceiling in several parts of
the building. This we think should
be repaired at once.
The Sheriff s and Clerks Offices are
in good condition, and the books
neatly kept. The Clerks Office is es-
pecially neat and the records con-
veniently arranged.
We are pleased to report the books
and accounts of our Parish Treasurer
in good condition. They show the
Parish to be out of debt, with some
funds to its credit. The School Fund
however, is somewhat behind.
We are surprised to find the books
of the Parish Treasurer are not kept
in a fre-proof vault or safe, and thinl
it unwise to have them thus exposed
to the danger of theft and fire.
| We beg to thank your Honor fol
many courtesies extended; also, tn
Clerk, Sheriff and his deputies, an(
the District Attorney for their kin,
attention and favors.
Having finished our duties to tn
best of our ability, we respectful.
beg to be discharged.

Petition from estate E. Jacobs, to

SPANISH MISSION.

President Mckinley is either in no
hurry to recall Mr.. Hannis Taylor or
is experiencing no little trouble to find
a Republican suitable or willing to un-
dertake the delicate and arduous du-
ties pertaining to the Spanish mission.
While several names have been sug'
gested no person Of any prominence
seems willing to risk his reputation
for craftsmanship in accepting a
position, which, under existing cir
cumstanceS. requires the services OF d
diplomat possessed Of unusual tact
and ability added to a thorough
knowledge OF international law
Furthermore when we take into
consideration the fact that our pres
ent minister to Spain has been able
to maintain friendly relations be
tween the two gOvernmentS-rela
tions that at times became very mucl
strained-and has guarded the inter
ests OF the United States with sucl
consummate prudence and skill it be
comes self-evidcnt that the Amer i9al
people would not tolerate a succeSso
Of inferior powers,
While it is barely possible that tn
administration may retain Mr.. Tay
lor, the national honor and dignit.
OF the United States and people coul'
not be left in more competent hands
AS minister to Spain Mr.. Taylor ha
gained Il worldwide reputation as
diplomat OF the first rank. His plac
will be difficult to Till.
Since writing the above the Pres
dent has nominated Stewart l.. Wood
ford, of New York, to be Minister t
Spain.

Several months have now elapsed
since the Advance Agent Of Prospect
ty entered upon his four years term,
but prosperity is still tagging as far in
the rear as when ante-electiUn promi-
ses were made to entrap the unwary
into voting for Mckinley. The CAPT
t~alists, millionaire owners OF iron and
other plants, those great and good ad-
vocates of the gold standard, who took
such an unselfSh interest in the
laboring man, are now engaged in
shutting down factories, reducing
wages and d%ischarging workmen. On
the It'll June, the entire plant of the
Cleveland, Ohio, branch OF the Stan
dard Oil Company-one Of the many
institutions run on the principles of
observation-disclosures closed for an in
definite period. One thousand men
were thrown out Of employment
purely in the cause of b%enevOlence.
With high prices inevitably follow Ing
in the wake OF a high tariff, prospect
