Color-hearing is found by DIR. w. s.
Colman to be of two kinds. In one II
transparent colored film seems to ap-
pear in front of the person on hearing
certain sounds, as those of the vowcls,
musical notes or particular musical in
struments. In the second group each
letter or word, when spoken or thought

phenomena as associated sensations"

"A Thoroughbred.

Next Saturday night, January StI,,
this popular musical farce comedy will
be presented at Sandoz Opera House.
The Company is well selected and
tirst-class aud includes specialties of a
rare order Here fs what the Memphis
Commercial Appeal SAYS of this excel
lent troupe:
Farce comedy, fun and specialties
reigned again at the Auditorium last
night, when Billy A. Griffin and ca
pable company made an immense au-
dience spend pleasant evening seeing
"a Thoroughbred Mr.. Griffin himself
is funny in action and his lines are
amusing. There is not much in "A
Thoroughbred" of course There was
never much story iD farce comedies,
and since the vaudeville craze there is
less than ever. What is wanted nova
days is comedy to advertise, that will,
when put on, offer abundant opportuni-
ties for specalties to be introduced.
This "A Thoroubred" does we'll. There
is enough singing, dancing and music
to satisfy any liberal patron of the
house and devOtee of such lively sources
of amusement. Misses Fowler, Lorena
Jansen and Julia Geyer. all three clever
young women, were we'll received at
the beginning of the play, and before
its close were made to feel hearty
welcome.

Fire.

Last Monday night shortly after 6
| O'Clock 1t was discovered that Smiths
drug store (the old Posey stand) was on
fire, and before anything could be saved
from the building, the flames had
gained such headway that entrance 40
the store was impossible, and the ti9e
soon communicated to the adjoingi y.
bnldlngs-Dr. j. =. Saizan's office, the
Chinese laundry and Erard Lemelle's
shoemaker shop-the last named building
being torn down iii order to arrest the
spread of the fire and resulted in
| checking the cODtiagration, otherwise
been the extent OF the damage, as in all
probability at least two and probably
more Of the principal business blocks of
the town wouId hAve been in aches to-
day F.; as it was it kqured herculean ef-
forts to confine t q fire to the row of
buildings enumE Erated. The Ealer
property on the chrner and the COURIER
office adjoining, both on the opposite
sife Of Main street from the burnt
buildings were in imminent danger; al
so the residence in the rear of the drug
store, on uniqn street, occupied by the
family of A. Lacombe, Esq. and the
store binding occupied by Mr.. kupper-
man un Main street were only saved by
inc Htlolt tIDltS oL the cltiZtnS ana
bucket brigade. At one time it was
thought the residence was doomed, and
the furniture, etc, hnrliedly thrown
out in the street, causing considerable
damage and loss. The buildings were
owned by DR.. Saizan and only had 800
insurance on a part of the property.
Mr.. Smiths stock Of goods was in.
sured for 81 600. Both sir. Smith and
DR.. SaiZau are heavy losers. BESIDES
the buildings, DR.. Sazan, who had
been sick in bed for two weeks and
was still confined to his room, lost his
office furniture and set of surgical in
strnments valued at $500. The most of
the contents of the shomakers shop was
saved, though in a sOmwl,at scrambled
condition. Fortunately there was but
little wind at the time, otherwise tue
best part of the business portion of
Opelousas would have been sacrificed
to the flames. No explanation can be
given as to how the fire originated, as
Mr.. SmIth had closed the store and left
everything apparently all right only
short time before the fire was discov-
cred. We are pleased to learn that Mr..
Smith has arranged to open a drug
stole in the EaIer bnilding andjoning
the COURIER office, and will have his
new stock in before the close of the
next week.
