POLICE JURY.
Holds q Meeting and Authorizes
the Issuance of Bonds for
Industrial School.

The Police Jury met last Thurs
day with all members present.
Mr.. Chas. D. Caffery appeared
and recommended the adoption by
the Jury of an ordinance to author
ize the Board of Trustees of the
Southwestern Louisiana Industrial
Institute in the issuance of thirty
thousand dollars worth of bonds
for the purpose of constructing
suitable buildings and purchasing
all necessary appurtenances of the
school. The ordinance provides
for the submission of the question
at the next general election in April,
to the electors of this parish. The
bonds will bear five per cent inter-
est, being based on and secured by
the special tax of two mills on the
dollar for ten years already levied.
The Jury unanimously adopted the
ordinance and it is understood that
the City Council will also authorize
the issue of fourteen thousand dol
lars worth of bonds for the same
purpose, thus placing at the dispo-
sal of the Board of Trustees an
ample fund to erect buildings on a
scale common surate with the plans
and objects of the State authorities.
AS some eight thousand dollars
have already been subscribed in
cash by the citizens, Police Jury
and City Council, the total of cash
at the disposition Of the Board will
be fifty two thousand dollars.
Arthur Comeaux, supervisor Of
election, resigned and the Jury ap-
pointed ]. r. Domengeaux instead.
DR.. DeLaureal appeared before
the Jury relative to the claims of
various health officers but no salts
factory arrangement or understand
ing was reached.

Judge Robert S. Perry died at
his late home in New Iberia last
Saturday. In the death of Judge
Perry the State has lost a worthy
citizen, the bar an honored member
ano the Confederate veterans a
brave and loyal comrade Judge
Perry not only reflected credit upon
his State as a civilian, but won I'M
perishable glory as one of that gal
liant band of Louisianians who fol-
lowed the fearless soldier and un
selfish patriot, Alcibiades DeBlanc.
upon the bloodiest fields of the
Civil war. Brave In battle, loyal
as an advocate, incorruptible on
the bench and ever faithful to every
trust Robert S. Perry fulfilled we'll
his mission on earth. His survi-
wing comrades will be sorry to hear
of his death. Pity tits that these
splendid representatives of the
sturdy manhood of the old South
can not live forever. One by one
they are dropping out of the ranks
to meet somewhere on the other
side of the river. We may we'll
mourn for them, for they were true
Southrons the like Of whom it will
never again be our privilege to look
upon.
