ALITTLE SERMON.
THE SIN OF FRETTING.

There is one sin which it seems TO me
is everywhere and by everybody
underestimated, and quite too mueis,h
overlooked in valuation of character !
1t is the sin of fretting. 1t is as common
as air, as speech, so common that ufIfess
it rises above its usual monotone, we4d6 as
not even observe It, Watch any ordi-
lary coming together OF people, and see
how many minutes 1t will be before
some one frets; that is makes more or
less complaining statement OF nsofte-

The Confederate Monument,

The Confederate monument,
which it is proposed to erect i'll
the court house grounds, will
not be merely pm ornament to the
town, but the expression OF loyalty
and devotion to the tried soldiers
of the Southland, a visible sign
that though old ideals pass away
yet they are not forgotten, but
are cherished in the memory of n
reverent posterity. In addition
to the contribution of the Police
Jury Of this parish to the fund,
much more will be required to pay
for monument suitable for the
purpose in view, therefore, consider
able labor still lies before the joint
committee of the U. G. Y. Camp
and the Police Jury, before reali-
zation Of their hopes can be effect
ed. But the work is worthy Of
best effort, and is, in itself, a con"
slant inspiration to excrtion.
The True Democrat welcomes
the undertaking for several reasons.
Principally on account of the sentl'
mcnts above expressed, and also,
in the hope that it will prove all
incentive TO identifying the town
further. 1t will certainly awaken
q desire to put the court house
yard in a condition in keeping with
the monument, so that in future
years, the home.lOving citizen need
not blush for the plain and shabby
appearance of these public grounds.
Let all hasten the day, as best
each may, when the monument
will be a reality, a bcauteOus memo
rial set in harmonious environ
ments.

Dr.. John McKOVen Killed.
Senator Emerson Th0mp-
son Shot Him.
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.

Wilson, La, Sept. lS.-Dr. Jno.
C. McKoweu of Clinton was shot
and killed by State Senator r. f.
Thompson on the Wilson and Gin
ton road, about four miles from
Wilson to-day. Mr., Thompson W. 8
on horseback going to Clinton, and
passed a buggy going in the same
direction with top and curtains
raised. As he passed he asked if
the occupant was DR.. McKowen.
Notwithstanding open
cd fire Oh him. Thompson imme-
diatcIy drew his revolver, which
was in his saddle pockets, and res
turned the fire, one ball striking DR..
McKowen on the right knuckle,
which disabled him. The second
struck him below the chin and af-
forwards proved fatal.
The pistol used by McKOwen WIS
q A calibre, one chamber was dis,
charged, and couple of cartridges
failed to fire. Thompson's pistol
was a38caIibre, which was discharg
ed six times.
The trouble which brought on
the shooting as near as can be
learned, started from charges insti,
gated by DR.. McKOwen against
Thompson at the last term of court
a few weeks ago, i'll behalf Of bis
sister, Mrs. Pipes, and which W
thrown out by the grand jury.
Some months ago Mrs. SalIiG
Pipes, DR.. McKowen'S sister, made
all affidavit against Thompson for
larceny. Or for moving wire fence
which was on u dividing line te-
tween their property. Mrs. Pipes
claims she had paid one,balf of the
expense to have it built. The case
went before the grand jury. They
did not find true bill against
Thompson, and this angered DR..
MCKowen. They met OIL the road
this morning about three miles
from Clinton, when the shooting
took place. Thompson claims Nc
KOwen fired the first shot. No
other persons saw or heard of the
fight until DR.. McKowen was seen
on the road by Mills and the negro
girl. Thompson came to Clinton
and surrendered to Sheriff Bennett.

that he was expecting trouble with

Memorial Services.

A memorial service for the late
President of the United States, WIN
Mckinley, was held at the Roman
Catholic Church, Thursday ~ a. m.
the Rev. Father Ayres conducting
the religious ceremonial. Hon.
Jos. L. Golsan delivered the pane
gyric OH the character of the dis
tinguiShed man, whom the nation
honors in life and in death.
At II o'clock, like services were
held in Grace Episcopal Church,
Rev. Louis Tucker, rector. The
order of exercises were as follows :
Morning Prayer; Hymn, dead
Kindly Light; Address on Presi-
dent Mckinley by Hon. Samuel
McC. Lawrason; Hymn, "Guide Me
0 Thou Great jehovah; Scripture
Lesson; Hymn, "My God, My
Father, While Stray-Thy VIII
BE Done; Reading of the Collect ;
Hymn, "Nearer My God TO Thee;
Prayer; Bcnediction.
The hymns chosen were partieu,
larIy appropriate, the first being
o favOrite of President Mckinley
himeeIf, The th;rl voiced his coun
try's sorrow and resignation, while
The last were bis own thoughts III
his dying hour:
"Nearer my God to Thee,
Even though it be u cross
That raisetlI me-"
The scripture lessons were read
ny Rev. G. =. White. Judge S,
MCC. LawlaSOn had been chosen
to deliver the euIOgy Oh the late
chief executive, which he did,
with taste and feeling, closing
his address with glance at the
future, urging the necessity Of lay
ing aside old fashioned ideas and
coming TO u realization that the
country has grown in scope as i'll
power and must now take its posi-.
ton as a leading one among the
nations of the world. The entire
services were very impressive, and
indicative Of the general feeling of
respect for the nation's chief exc
cutive and of SORROW aud indignation
at his lfntimely end. AS 4 people,
ours are second to none in loyalty
to the national government, and it
has been shown by the unanimity
with which they have participated
in every possible expression of re
spect for the late President.
The memorial services were well
attended, and the most noteworthy
feature of the audience was the
presence of the military and frater-
nal organizations. The West Fell
ciana Rifles under Capt. Kilbourne;
the ConfcderateV eterans, under DIR.
.M.Mumford, the Sons of Veterans
failing in" with their elders, and
the Masons, }. u. Thomas, Wor-
shipful Master, had all marched in
ranks to the church, meeting at
Feliciana Lodge for that purpose.
There were also several Knights
Templar, whose beautiful uniform
added much to the effectiveness of
the scene. A Sabbath.like stiffness
was over the towns during the
two hours of the service, as in re,
Spouse to proclamation of the
mayors Of Bayou Sara and St.
FrancisviIle, places Of business were
closed during the solemn OCCASION.
