Said He Had n Bad Night.

Yesterday morning he rose at the
usual hour and joined the family at
breakfast. He then said he had spent
a bad night, but felt better. He had
been suffering from abdominal pains
and tightness about the cfsst. He did
not think his condition at all danger
Gus. After breakfast he telephoned to
DR.. Smith, his physician, who is at
Belle Haven, and told him of his ex-
perience during the night. DR.. Smith
told him, he said, to continue the use
of nitro glycerine, and that he would
see him during the day. Colonel In
gersolI spent the morning swinging in
a hammock and sitting on the veranda
with the members of the family. He
said he was better and had no pain.
At 1880 he started to go up stairs.
His Last Words on Earth.
On reaching the head of the stairs
Colonel Ingersoll turned into his wife's
room. Mrs. Ingersoll was there. To-
gether they discussed what they would
have for luncheon. and Colonel Inger-
soil said he had better not eat much,
owing to the trouble with his stomach.
He seemed in good spirits then. After
talking for a few minutes Colonel In
gersoll crossed the room and sat down
in rocking chair. He leaned his head
upon his hand. Mrs. Ingersoll asked
him how he was feeling and he re-
piled: "Oh, better" These were his
last words. A second after they were
uttered he was dead.
Died According to His Wish.
There was not even a sigh or a groan
as death came. Mrs. Ingersoll was the
only person in the room with him
when he died. Death came to him as
he had recently expressed desire that it
should. He often in old times said he
wished to die slowly, with full con-
seriousness, so he might tell those about
him how it felt. Recently he exper-
fenced a change and desired to die pain
lessly and without warning.

The killing of seven negroes
yesterday at Carterville, ILL.,, will
give the Republican newspapers
something to talk about other than
lawlessness in the South. The
importation of Southern negroes
to take the place of white miners
in Illinois has aroused a strong
race feeling and for some weeks
trouble has been brewing at Car
terville, which eliminated in yes
terday's riot. Several companies
OF State troops have been ordered
to the scene to prevent further
bloodshed. as armed miners are
focking into the town from other
points in the district and a pitch
ed battle between the whites and
the blacks will occur if the troo ps
do not reach Carterville in time to
obtain the mastery of the situa-
tion. The troubles in the mining
district have continued over year
and rioting and bloodshed have
occurred at Pans and other towns
- States.

We learn that the last rating
of st. Martinville by the fire in
surance companies, a trust worse
than any other trust, is higher
than the former one, and yet our
people submit to it without pro-
test. We believe it is time for
this town to think of water work
or adopt some measure against
fire, and urge the next Legislature
to drive the trust out of Louisiana.

A GOOD CHARGE.

IRISH at the last term of court, read
a paper that should be read by
every citizens in this parish, and
particularly those who will serve
on our grand jury at the next
term of court. We publish part
of the charge:
II shall now point out to you, as brief.
ly as possible. some Of the causes to
which. In my judment. we can trace
the unhealthy state of public morals in
our midst. One Of the main causes, I
imagine, is idleness. This idleness Is
the parent Of vice. ia a proposition too
plain to be argued. That vice leads by
degrees to crime. is also q proposition
that cannot be controverted. Our Le-
gislators have felt the danger Of idle
ness. but they have, unfortunately, pro-
vided inadequate means for its suppress
sion. Nowhere Is Idleness, that cancer
lbawing at the very vitals Of society,
more in evidence than in this country.

ldleness the Source of Crime.

In this issue of the Messenger
we publish the remarks by Judge
Felix VOORHEES, when he charged
the grand jury of Iberia parish
recently, and as the Judge re-
marks, idleness is the cause and
source of all crimes. The remarks
OF Judge VOORHEES, are perfectly
correct, and the same question
has often been discussed in these
columns. There is no law TO force,
q lazy man to work, but fortunate
ly there is state law that class
these idlers as Migrants, and as
such can be dealt with in such a
manner as to get rid of them.
That there are idlers, lazy,
worthless individuals in St. Mar
tinville, no body will dispute that
fact, look at the corner OF Main
and Bridge streets every night
will show many of these loafers,
and a round of the town will
greatly increase the number.
These loafers will not work, Mr.
Sam Shalburne was in town this
week looking for laborers to work
in the swamps with him, and he
could not get none; these drones,
as the Judge terms them, should
be made to work for a living or
made to quit town by the enac-
ton of a strictly enforced town
vagrant law. In the mean time,
we believe the grand jury can in
dict, at its next session, a couple
dozen loafers, as a start.

THE GYMNASTICS OF REST.
A Physieian's saggestions 70 Alleviate the
vital Waste of Hurry.

NltAl WuAtr oA huEtys
The Edinburgh health lecture was
delivered by DIR. George r. Wilson,
medical superintendent of Mavis-
bank asylum, on 1.-THE Gymnastics
of Rest"
He said it was the unfortunate
habit of our times to measure the
welfare of the people only by their
material prosperity and to ignore
their mental distress The waste of
human material was greater than
ever, the tear and wear Of mems
minds increased, and now, in spite
of all our inventions--nay, because
of all of our inventions-the world
was more than ever in need of rest.
The nervous system was contrived
so as to thrive i'll an atmosphere OF
mild impressions, not i'll one of con-
slant shocks and jars. True, we
could become accommodated to
shocks, to noise and din, but we be-
come accommodated to them only
by using up energy. 1t would repay
us to get away from noise and din
even for short time. Just as noise
was to the ear, dinginess and the
duh gray atmosphere of cities We're
to the eye; our eyes and our brains
were adapted for richer colors than
the life of cities afforded. There
was perhaps a greater evil which
city life brought upon the eye. The
eye itself, and its nerves and mus
cles, was so contrived that in the
natural state-in the state of rest
we looked at a distance, but by COM
stantly looking at objects close Az
hand we never gave the eye rest.#
1t was not easy for older people to
learn new ways, but children should
4 be taught, whenever a glimpse of
distance could be had, to let loose
4 their eyes upon it, to turn to the
horizon and rest One Of the first
steps to mental rest was the ability
/ TO perform the feat-as to tho re-
