Immediately arrested and taken to
the city Jail where each one was
put in a cell. The victim lived
only FIVE n1inutes, and never ut
tered word after the first shot.
The tragedy grew out OF a sue
eession OF bitter quarrels; the last
of which took place at the after
noon rehearsal at which Mrs. Nor
risson-James slapped Leidenhei-
mer's face. He made a motion
to retaliate, but was hurried away
by one Of the stage hands. Al

that it will be almost impossible to
travel them with a load or without,
He takes a pair of mules and
ploughs two or three furrows down
in the ditch that has been dug, up
hill and down without any regard
to drainage on either end. He
puts on gang of negroes and
throws the dirt out OF the ditch into
the middle Of the street in heaps,
piles and clods whichever is the
most handy leaving the middle Of
the street from six to. eight inches
lower than either side. so it will be
impossible for the water to run off
the street into the bitches, conse-
quently the middle OF the street
will become the ditch that will
have to carry tie water. !.
l admit that this man is doing
some very good work on our main
streets, but his work on scme Of
our back and cross streets is a
nuisance, and disgrace to the town.
If any Of the street committee ap-
pointed by the council have any
doubts about the above statement,
let them get into a buggy and start
from the w w. and + Is. plant
and drive straight up till they strike
Lincoln Avenue heaf Cochrane's

streets as they go along; they will
find that they will have to drive

6 to II inches higher over clods

who attempts to drive those streets.

alleges that he began to persecute
her and to insult her when the
company started out, and when he
found that her husband, who had
no part in the cast, was to travel
with her, he tried to have her de-
posed. She told consistent,
straight STORY, everyWord of which
was corroborated by her husband.
She wept Bitterly but refused to
testify at the corot1ef's S INQUEST who
charged her with the killing of
Leidenheimer in the following
words: That Eeidenheimer came
to his death by gunshots wounds in
the hands of Mrs. Morrison-JameS,
that the crime was prenieditated
and wholly unjustifed and that her
husband F. JAMES was an Access
sary to the crime.
The victim was very POPULAR
and the company's sympathies
we're for him. He hailed from
New Orleans where he had GER

A SAD TRAGEDY.

Sometime last May, Mr.. and
Mrs. F. H. James left Lafayette
where they had resided several
months and went up North.
1t will be remcm bered that Mr..
James was the druggist at the Moss
Pharmacy where his genial smile
always badc you weltonie.
Mr.. and Mrs. James were mar
ried in Lafayette, by Rev. l. T.
Rcams Of the Methodist church.
1t was known that she was in
clined towards the stage and during
her stay here had tried to organize
a theatrical company but failed.
On last Friday night, September
22nd, while at Chattanooga, Tenn.
filling the leading role in farce
comedy company she came to grief
While a large and fashionable
audience had gathered in the Chat
tanooga's Opera House. and the
orchestra had just concluded the
opening overture, three shots rang
out. Two came together, then a
pause, and then the third The
audience, thinking that it was the
prelude of the farce comedy stood
quiet and no One stirred until the
stage manager came before the
curtain and announced that an ae-
cident had occurred to the leading
man, and quietly dismissed the
audience.
The shots had been fired from a
revolver iii the hands Of Mrs. Nor
tison-James, killing instantly the

convinced that Mrs. James was
justihable in the terrible act she
had committed.
He made it publicly known that
instead of prosecuting the woman
he would do everything he could
in her favor.
During last Sunday, Mrs. James
was visited in her cell at the lail;
by many influential ladies of Chat
tanooga who brought her baskets
of flowers and fruits to cheer her
up, and every day since, she has
been the recipient of many atten-
tions from the Chattanoogans. On
last MoIday, the mayor Of Chat
tanooga and his wife, DR.. Monk
and his wife, Rev. Father Tobini
catholic priest visited her at the
Jail
On last tuesday, the case eanie
up before the City Recorder, and
on motion OF the State, James was
dismissed and his wife turf1ed over
to the Grand Jury who was called
in special session by the Circuit
Judge.
immediately after the t1eafing,
MIS-. JAMES was removed from the
City Jail to the County Jail where
better accommodations were given
her, and the last report conveys
The Lafayette advertiser. [volume] (Vermilionville [i.e. Lafayette], La.) 1865-19??, 1899-09-30

the information that her cell was
fitted up elegantly by the kind
people of Chattanooga.
So many versions Of this sad af.
fair, and SO many things have
been printed that i. is hard to find
the motive that prompted Mrs.
James to take the life of Leidens
heimer.

forced ME to do it, and impfioper

1t is now said that she has no,
the least remembrance Of her act.

eVelopment.
COsmoDOiitism exists here

development.
Cosmopolitan exists here!
The population is better prepar-
ed to adapt itself to new ideas or
change of customs than that in the
older settled part of the parish.
Scott is also nearer the center of
the parish than any other point on
the railroad. There are nearer
Scott than Lafayette, 4S3 white
childfen in the first ward; 593 in
the second; say $50 in the eight
and perhaps 100 in the third ward
total of $50 white children be-
tween 6 and Is years of age,
enough TO support the school.
(See parish Educational Statis-
tics
The Carencro section is in as
close proximity and by way Of
public road at Darmas Broussard,
or proposed bridge at Whiting
tons the talf OF Cote Gelee is as
near.
Hence the situation at Scott is
central, it affords accessibility to
perhaps greater number Of parish
children than any other point. 1t
is a superior location for students
from a distance on account of the
nearness to railroad station, of the
site offered.
lfespectfully beg all citizens sup
port, and assure mine and that of
Scott, to any other point that can
do better than we can at Scott, as
we propose to show Sunday.
Bountiful Preparations have been
made towards the temporal wclfa-
fe of those who will come,
