The Concert.

Though the efforts of the clever
musician, Prof. Florent Sontag, his
talented sister, Miss Florence Sontag,
and Prof. Walter ]. Mouton and his
splendid orchestra, the music GLOWING
people of Lafayette enjoyed most
excellent treat last Tuesday. Prof.
Sontag is an accomplished must
clan. He plays with the ease
which at once proclaims the artist.
There is expression in every one of
his notes and melody to the most
uncultured ear Seldom has it
been the good fortune of our peo-
pie to listen to so skilful an artist.
The performance on the violin of
Miss Sontag, who is also peculiarly
gifted, was a pleasing feature of the
concert. Mr.. Walter Mouton was
at his best and did well-so we'll
that he was compelled to repeat his
performance by the applause of the
people who would not stop until as
sured of an encore.
| The financial side Of the concert
was satisfactory to the orchestra,
although the attendance was not as
large as it should have been.
The degree of excellence attained
by the orchestra should prove an
incentive to the members to CONT
nue. their organization.

The Ladies' Meeting.

A committee of ladies called at
the office of The Gazette last We'd
nesday to request the announce
ment that there will be a meeting
in Falk's Opera House at 4 o clock,
Monday next, TO formulate plan
of operation for the purpose of en-
listing the support of everybody in
the movemtn to secure the Indus
trial School.
The Gazette is pleased to see
that the ladies of the town have de-
cided to take hand in this most
| laudable work. They can do a
great deal and those who have taken
the initiative are entitled to much
credit. Without the influence OF
the ladies the movement would be
greatly hinuered. With their in
huence and active cooperation sue
cess is almost assured. Their par.
ticipation il. the work will no doubt
bring into the movement an earn
estness without which we can not
hope to succeed. The ladies can dc
as much as the men toward getting
the school aud they should attenc
the meeting at Falk's Opera
house. A large attendance is de
sired by the promoters of the meet
ing. The larger the meeting thu
better it will be for the cause.

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
At the Lafayette High School
Diplomas Conferred Upon
Three Students.

A very large assembly witnessed
the commencement exercises last
Friday, May 10, of the Lafayette
High School. During the session
which has just ended the High
School has done very we'll, and the
exercises were fitting close of the
season. During the intermissions
the Lafayette Orchestra treated the
audience to some of the excellent
music tor which it is noted.
Hon. Chas. d. Caffery delivered
an appropriate address At the
conclusion of his remarks which
were we'll received, there were reci-
tations by pupils of several country
schools They all did well. They
we're: Miss Racquet, Bertrand
school; Miss Elina Bernard, Sicily
School; Leonce Prejean, Dominique
School; Miss Laura Magnon, Car
encro School; Sidney Arceneaux,
Verrot School; Edmond BONN,
Pilette School.
When the representatives of the
above named schools had all spoken,
Ed f. VOORHEES,, the salutatorian
OF the graduating class, read we'll
worded paper which contained
some very good things. The young
man had evidently given the sub
iect his earnest attention. He has
a good voice, talks distinctly, is
neither bashful nor affected and &C
Quilted himself very credltably.
Louis +. Guerre, a bright young
gentleman, followed the salutatorian
in a well written essay. Young
Guerre has a pleasing address and
is gifted with a splendid voice. His
paper showed the result of pains
taking efforts. He spoke like
man who had something to say,
and said it we'll.
Miss Anna Hopkins delivered the
valedictory. Her graceful gestures
enhanced the effect of her address.
Her composition, like those of the
young men who preceded her,
speaks we'll for the school and is
splendid evidence that Prof. lie
Rosen and his assistants, Mrs. De
Laney and Miss Lizzie Mudd, have
done their work in an intelligent
and conscientious manner
An address by Judge Debaillon
followed. The judge spoke to the
graduates and his remarks were
s brief and to the point.
: The exercises were brought to {
g close by the presentation of tn
II diplomas by Prof. LeRosen. Be
,, fore presenting the diplomas Prof
o LeRosen made few remarks suit
able to the occasion.

The Veterans Picnic.

AS announced in the columns Of
this paper the veterans Of Camp
held a reunion at Because
Jour p rk last Saturday. Only seven
teen members Of the camp were
present and a very small number OF
people outside of the organization
attended, 1t is safe to say that the
town Of Lafayette was rep, esented
by less than a .dozen persons. This
is rather strange as the veterans had
invited everybody. Thanks to
Messrs +. V. Mouton, Adolphe
Mouton. Walter Mouton and Chas.
Jeanmard the meeting was enlivened
by some music. Though the crowd
was small those present seemed to
enjoy themselves. No little disap-
pointment was expressed over the
apparent lack Of interes: shown by
many of the veterans and by the
people in general.
The smallness of the crowd, how
ever, did not interfere with the
speakers. Judge Gilbert l.. Dupre
of Opelousas, who had adjourned
his court to come here to speak to
the veterans, was not at all dis
heartened He said he could talk
Just as we'll to a'few persons as he
could to large crowd--and so he
can. His address was very elo-
quent. His patriotic utterances
! <>l> haI in heantlful lam
guage His tribute to the courage
of the Confederate soldier elected
much applause, particularly from
those who knew it was not exagger-
ated When Judge Dupre received
the invitation to speak he was busy
holding court, but with the per
mission Of the lawyers of his bar,
he adjourned in order to be able
to accept the invitation of the vet
Grams.
Mr.. J. A. Laneuville, membe
Of the camp, delivered a patriotic
address in French. Mr.. Laneuvlils
is a veteran Of the NJ xican ant
Civil wars.

Another Attempt at Burglar


Last Thursday night when Mrs.
A. b. Denbo returned home after
attending the Presbyterian church
festival she heard some noise on
the rear porch and ascertained that
it was caused by some one who was
evidently bent on mischief. AS
MIR. Denbo was absent Mrs. Denbo
tried to make use of a pistol, but
as the weapon would not fire on
account Of defective trigger, the
lady called out to the neighbors
for protection. These answer ed
promptly, but too late to catch the
culprit. The Denbo residence was
l,urglarized some weeks ago.
