from the surrounding country and
points along the S. 2. railroad
were in town on July 4th, to wit.
ness and participate in our cele-
bration of that day. The cele-
bratlon was splendid success, re-
tiecting honor on those who had
been active in bringing it about.
While the flower parade was not
carried out on as grand scale as
was the merchants parade on St.
Joseph's day, there were never
theless several very pretty dis
plays which reflected great credit
the artistic skill of those on
who had decorated them.
AS announced by the posters is
sued by the arrangement commit
tee, the procession was the first
feature of the days program. At
| p. m., it formed at the High
School campus and proceeded
over the route as published last
week, ending at the courthouse
square. Following is the order
of procession:
Grand Marshals-M.L. Swords,
FL. D. Larcade, Mel Durio, Jack
Comeau, Chas. f. Garland, DR..
Marshall Cumpton, DR.. +. J. Pull
ford, George Rogers, Russell
Chachere and Thos. Atkinson.

Breaux Bridge Brass Band.
RE. Lee Camp No. IA, U.C.V.,
and other Confederates, mounted.
Little Marie Fire Co., with en-
gine decorated, upon which rode
their little sponsor Marie Meginley.
Hope Hook & Ladder Co.
Prof. Mayors Silver Cornet
Band.
Then came eleven decorated
vehicles.
Colored Brass Band.
Several decorated carriages
brought up the rear.
After the procession and crowd
had assembled upon the court
house square, Mayor Littell in
troduced G. j. Thompson, who
in q clear and impressive manner
read the Declaration of Indepen-
dence. After this the crowd was
invited into the courthouse, where
the speaking was to take place.
Mayor Littell called upon Thos.
III. Lewis to preside. Mr.. Lewis
introduced, with fitting remarks,
the speakers of the day, in the or
der named: Justin Daspit, Of New
Iberia, P. t. Ogden, John w.
Lewis, Austin Fontenot, Leo
Mayer, and Prof. Stephens, of the
State Industrial Institute at La
fayette. The speakers were all
given close attention and roundly
applauded by the audience. At
the close of the meeting the crowd
dispersed and amused themselves
by attending the races, the prize
fight and listening to the music
on the streets the rest Of the af-
ternoon.
At eight o'clock the crowd as
sembled at the High School camp
us where they were treated to a
splendid display of fireworks and
music by two bands. The feature
of this was the name of I'll. l..
Garland, which was shown in the
Iilluminations. A large part OF the
crowd then went to the Opera
House where Mr.. G. L. Forester,
on behalf of the judges of the
flower parade, presented to the
Misses Clements the prize(a beau
tiful vase) awarded for the most
artistically decorated vehicle, after
which the fremen's grand ball
was commenced and the young
people were wrapped in the mazes
Iof the dance until alate hour.

"Old-man-afraid- of-the-pension-
question:" is the new name that
has been given to Mr.. Mckinley,
because of his hesitation to de-
clare himself for or against the
administration of the pension bu-
reau by Commissioner Evins. The
question has been forced to the
front by the demand OF the OPP
ponents of Commissioner Evins
that the ante-election promise
made them-that a new Commits
sioner of Pensions be appointed
shall be lived up to, and there
seems no way for Mr.. Mckinley
to dodge the issuse, much as he
would like to do so. Evans, who
has been quiet during previous
attacks upon him, is now fighting
back, and emphasizing his claim
that the animosity against him
has all been stirred up by those
who are desirous of Il construc-
ton of the pension laws, which
will add millions to the annual
pension payment of the country,
and incidentally give fortunes in
fees to a ring of pension attor-
neys. It is no secret in Wash
ington that Mr.. Mckinley per-
sonally believes that he should
stand by Evans, but he is being
urged to the contrary course by
Isome of the men who have be-
fore now coerced him into doing
things against his best judgment
and the result is an aggravated
attack Of his old trouble-wab.
bling. Gen. Dan Sickles, who is
Heading the fight against Evins.
has made public a letter from
Senator Scott, of West Virginia
in the name of the Republican
national committee, telling hin
lthat he could assure the G. A. r
men that Evans would not be
kept at the head Of the Pension
bureau, and added that Mckinley
mot only told him the same thing
but confidently gave him the
. name of the man who had beer
selected to succeed Evans. Gen
Sickles added significantly: II
