Eignre Of JacksOn.

Senator Goebel resembles Andy
Jackson more than any other man in
American history in his opposition to-
centralized power, and the encroach-
ments OF wealth. The corporations of
that day hated Jackson just as those
OF today hate Goebel. Jackson stood
by the people, and deied monopoly.
Goebel is doing the same thing.
jackson was execrated by the aristoc-
racy, the politician and the chronic
Office seeker. Goebel is hated by the
representatives of any system of OPP
preston. e people were for jack
son, so they ere for Goebel. Jackson
had to- fight his way by slow degrees
to success. Gobsl has had 10 do the
same thing. jackson reached the pres
dency, and Coebel, we think, will do
likewise. Abuse and vituperation can
not stay he onward march; he is a
man OF distinction.-T County

A Nanceburg (ky.) correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Enquirer writes that
John Greenert, n prominent farmer Of
the Tygart creek neighborhood, whose
veracity has never been doubted, tells
OF a wonderful species OF winged snake
seen by him and a farmland en- his
place. lie describes the snake, which
they first discovered lying on the
ground. as about three feet long and
ten inches In circumference at the CEN
ter. II had four pairs Of legs. two near
the head aud two just back of the
wings. which grew just forward OF the
middle OF the body. The wings consist
ed OF a membraneous substance which.
when the snake was in dormant eondi-
tion, remained folded up under the
body and were not noticed by them
until on their approach. With a spring
IL raised from the ground and sailed
through the air at a terrific sped. The
snake Is as black as charcoal and has n
very repulsive appearance, especially
when flying through the air. This
new-fangled reptile having been dis
covered in Kentucky the story will of
course go unquestioned.

been a resident Of Brown county for
nearly IS years. During that time he
has never had fight with any man;
but last Thursday afternoon about six
o'clock Superintendent Dyche. Of the.
public schools, stuck a revolver In our
face and threatened to shoot II move
was made. II Is safe TO say that no
move was made: and for the benefit OF
those who have never looked into the
business end Of one of these little pill
throwers, the editor Is ready to say.
with all candor, that IL Is mighty un-
pleasant thing 20 have pointed your
way. II might have gone of, but II
didn't. and there Is no one who rejoices
over the fact more than the editor.
Prof. Dyche had hold OF the other end
Of II. and he is doubtless ashamed for
II. II he isn't lac should be, and the
editor IL ashamed also. We did not run,
but Il was not because we did not want
90 do 80. Our exit was shut of. and we
had to wait until the other fellows

thing in his pocket"

A New York man, with taste for
mechanics. bought a new straw hat last
week. Before he had gone two blocks
the purchase had blown of his head
and was crushed under the wheels Of a
passing truck. That was the inspira-
ton OF an invention which he has just
patented and which he thinks will rank
him with Edison, Morse and Maxim.
His invention covers hard rubber
band which fits around the head, and in
which n thread is cut. The swaziland
Of the straw hat is also to he threaded.
Then the hat can be screwed on like the
top OF fruit jar, and not even a cy-
clone would shake Il from its secure
position. The inventor estimates that
each man loses on the average two
straw hats a year, costing perhaps six
dollars, and that there would be a great
market for his invention at price
slightly in advance of that charged for
the ordinary hat.

Mr.. Chas. 0 Mouton, presiden,
of the Business Mems Association
of Lafayette went to New Orlean.
to confer with Major Quinn abou
the appropriation made by Con
gress to improve Bayou Vermilion
1t will be remembered that at Z
meeting of the B. M. A., Mr.
Mouton had been chosen as a del.
egate for that purpose and soor
after he entered into correspon.
dence with Hon. r. F. Broussard
our congressman, asking his help
to enable him to be successful ir
his mission.
Hon. R. +. Broussard cheerfully
granted his help and influence and
promised to meet Mr.. Mouton in
New Orleans on last Friday a
week ago.
According to promise, our con-
gressman met Mr.. Mouton. and
both of them accompanied by a
reporter of The ADVERTISER cal
led on Major Quinn, at his office,
and after having explained to him
the object of their visit, the Major
rea Oily consented to do everything
in his power to further the project
to successful ending and joining
the action to his words, he order
ed two of his engineers, Messrs.
Bryant and Brownlee>to come to
Lafayette about May, TO make a
careful survey of the necessary
work to be done SO as to render
the bayou navigable to Lafayette,
The Major was well disposed
towards the request and it was with
pleasure that he granted it.
AS we have already said in one
of our preceding numbers the ap-
preparation made by Congress is
So, 5000 and in adding to it 900
left from last year, still the amount
is small. But in all things there
must necessarily be a beginning
and further on Hon. K. F. Brous-
sard has promised to put forth his
best efforts to secure a larger ap-
propria ton.
We congratulate Mr.. Mouton
on his success.
