Young HOOdl1II.lS,

The young hoodlurns who have
made themselves obnoxious to the
good people Of the second ward by
breaking prayer meetings and COM
hitting other acts Of hoodlumnism
should be severely punished, if the
accusations against them are sub
stantiated by the evidence. People
who have not enough decency to
behave themselves at places Of
worship should be made to do SO
by the law. There are laws ex-
pressly for that purpose and they
should be rigidly enforced, for
those who violate them deserve no
sympathy and should receive none.
Hoodlumnism should be crushed in
its incipient stages, and young men
who aspire to become hoodlums to
terrorize women and children are
entitled to no leniency at the hands
Of the community and the court.
The budding hoodlumnism of the
second ward should be checked be-
fore it becomes stronger and more
dangerous. By melting out just
punishment to young men with
hoodlumnistic propensities a desire
to break the laws is subdued and
the youthful disturbers Of the peace
are taught before it is too late that
the ssway Of the transgressor is
hard.''

Patriotic Service at CarencrO.


Father Laforest and his congre-
CATION celebrated on Saturday a
solemn requiem mass for the Amer
lean soldiers who have fallen during
the present war. A very large con-
gregation assembled to take part in
the ceremonies which were of a
most inspiring character. Father
Laforest was assisted by Father De-
stakalper, of Grand Coteau, who
delivered a fine sermon in English
appropriate to the subject. A mag
nificently decorated catafalque sur
mounted by a handsome coffin, oc-
cupied the centre of the church,
guarded by a squad Of armed men.
A salute was fired at the elevation
Of the Host, there was fine music
and the service for the dead heroes
was carried out with all the pomp
and grandeur Of the Catholic
church. From the portrait Of the
American eagle, draped with the
flag and streamers of Grape at the
entrance, up to the purple decora-
tons of the brilliantly lit altar, all
bespoke patriotism, the Inscription
at the door reading thus. "Glory
and honor to our brave soldiers. .
Father Laforest, always capable,
surpassed all former efforts upon
this occasion, and he and his as
sistants are to be congratulated up
on this most impress i've and benef-
Cial ceremonial.

MES that part of the story which
gives to the desperate the credit of
having accomplished SO extraordi-
nary feat. 1t may not be amiss
to state here that Hornsby was very
positive about what he said in re-
gard to the alleged capture of the
posse. While Mr.. Veazey admits
the correctness of the other parts of
the story he emPhatically denies
having been taken to town by
Hornsby as prisoner. Mr.. Yea
zey comedies in his statement that
Hornsby capitulated only after
having obtained the acceptance
Of certain conditions. He held a
parley with the officers, offered his
terms in regular diplomatic style
and they were accepted before a
treaty of peace was agreed upon.
One of the conditions was that
"Frenchy," who was a member Of
the posse, be placed under arrest
and disarmed. :Frenchy" was the
companion of Castro when the latter
was killed by Hornsoy, hence the
ACCESSIBILITY of placing him in
harmless condition. Other terms
were that Hornsby would not be
hand cuffed and that his family be
permitted to accompany him to
New Iberia. Hornsby stated in
the presence Of the writer that he
never gave up his rifle until he
reached New Iberia. The mem
bers of the posse were: Fred Yea

\ Visit to the Lafayette Boys.

"A Visit TO the AAIsayettS boys.
The Jackson barracks, where the
Lafayette boys are camped, was
visited by us last Saturday and Sun
day. The boys were ali looking
well, cheerful and evidently glad to
be in the service Of their Uncle
Sam. The health among them was
remarkably good, the only trouble
being that some Of them were suf-
fering from the results of vaccina-
ton. All expressed themselves as
being satisfied with their present
home, but hoped that they would
not be kept there too long as they
would not object to getting a taste
Of real warfare. The barracks,
where they are encamped, is most
delightful place and as healthful as
can be found anywhere at this sea-
son of the year. The boys make a
splendid appearance in their blue
uniforms and some Of them look re-
ally handsome-Frank Mcbride
and Ed. Matthews for instance.
Only three of the boys are accused
Of being in love. If they are not
it is in evidence that they have be-
trayed some strong symptoms since
their enli stment.
The Gazette hopes that before
our boys are called to the front,
peace will have been established
and that their services, so unselfish-
ly rendered to their country, will
not be required.
