Washington, Feb. 9.-The
passage at the beginning of to-
DAYS session of the Senate of a
bill granting pension of $50 a
month to Stacy H. Cogswell,
Company F. Thirteenth In
diana Volunteer Infantry, in
duced Mr., Tillman Is. c. to
make some forceful comments
upon the House in not taking
action upon Il bill pr DIVIDING a
pension for a Mexican war vet
eran who had resided in South
Carolina during the Civil war
and naturally had been i'll
sympathy with the Confeder.
acy. The bill had been passed
by the Senate, but the House
invalid pension committee was
delaying final action upon it,
Mr.. Tillman urged. He said
there was such sectional ami
in the House committee
that the members refused to
permit action upon the bill for
the benefit of this old Mexican
war veteran. "TS the war over
or is it not?" demanded Mr..
rillman with vehemenCe. Let
US find out whether it is or not.
Il swear, by the Almighty
God, that l will not let another
pension bill pass this Senate
until this old man gets justice.

until Pope Alexander III stopped i
and prohibited first, second and thiro
cousins from intermarrying. The laws
OF England permitted such marriages
because the kings and the nobility
wanted to keep the crown and the titles
ana their estates in their families. And
so our American people, who have pat
termed aftor English law and precedent
lor more than a hundred years, have
| oeen reluctant to make any change in
| this regard.
But the question is now coming to
the front, aud the time is coming for IA
chanSe. 1t seems now to be an cstab-
l!shed and universal rule that these
marriages entail upon the offspring
evil consequences, bodily or mentally,
or both. The evil effect of what is

MINISTER WI no TIE WOMEN
The wise and facetlous Minister WI
Ting Fang made his appearance in a
new role The other evening at large
gathering where both ladies and gentle
men were present, where he was the
most conspicuous guest. He was asked
to say few words to the ladies', in re-
sponsc to Il toast to them. He said: :
" When | see so many iincly-bult wo-
men confronting me, aud am called
upon to be the gallant of the moment,
what can | say but that | wish for that

| should like to be an American as |

would appear as beautiful to ne as you
actually must be when seen through
your countrymen's eyes. Alasl the
slight difference in the formation of
my orbs cannot do justice to the im-
preston you make upon me, indivi-
dually and Jointly and sevcrally. But
there are some well-nourishcd figures
and forms among you that really ap-
pear to be as fine as the best that my
own fertile country has produced.
And your intelligence and souls, |
am told, which are hidden under your
intricate fashionable apparel, are more
beautiful even that your forms. May
you all feel the depth and sincerity OF
my admiration; and may your youthful
looks and honorable years always walk
hand in hand"

| ly opposite to that OF The United State
t and, if Yc judge by results, we ar,
| forced to the conclusion that oul
, friends across the water know grea
) deal more about the laws 0. trade than
we do.
! Previous to the war for Southern in.
dependence, when the country was un-
der Democratic lulc, the United States
had Il large and growing merchant ma
rlne, being strong competitor with
England for the carrying trade of the
world. As result of the war the NOR
chant marine suffered heavily, but
would have long since recovered and
! surpassed its former prestige except
Tor the whitening blight of Republican
rule.
AS an illustration of how easily this
could have been brought about by the
enactment Of wise laws it is only ncccs-
sary to cite the case OF Germany. Pre-
vlous to the war of 1870 with France
inc present German Empire was dlvid-
ed into number of States, not. even
inc greatest of them, Prussia, having
anything worth mentioning in the way

mas Deen great change in the past
twenty live years and to-day Germany,
with not tenth as much seacoast and
great deal less in the way of re-
sources, has strong navy and n great
and rapidly growing merchant marine.
The writer feels that it is hardly nee
essary to have said this much, for if
there Is amy other tangible reason than
thc one given above for our lack of
merchant marine he, the writer, pleads |
ignorance of its existence and would |

must accept results, and when Eng

ought TO convince every reasonable
man that the present navigation laws
OF our country should be dscrcditcd
ana abandoned, for they have been
weighed III the balance of experience
and found wanting.
Az the time of the passage of the
present navigation laws of England il
was predicted that her commercial su-

The writer is perfectly aware that
mere Is nothing new in this, but then
he truth cannot be too often told, at
cast as long as error stalks abroad i'm

Many persons think that putta-pcI

Many persons think that gutta-per-
cha and India rubber are substantially
the same product, but, while they re-
semblc each other in some respects,
they arc distinctly different in others.
a writer who was formerly forester
in the Dutch East Indies has recently
called attention to these differences.
SO far as the qualities Of the products
are concerned the most noticeable diff
ference is that rubber is elastic, while
gutta-perclla ls not. Gutta pcrcha is
obtained from one plant only; rubber
from upward of GO different plants.
The gutta-percha tree is cultivated with
great difficulty, and the natives of the
countries where 1t grows cut it down
TO get its sap. Three-fou"ths of this
product come from Sumatra and Bor-
nco The total annual production is
| only about Onc-twcntieth Of that OF
| rubber, which is estimated at about
| 90,000,000 pounds, two-thirds Of il
coming from the Amazon valley, one
third from Central Africa and one
twentieth from Asia.
The late David Dickson, of Georgia
was prosperous farmer and made bl.
corn crops, no matter what the scasol
was, wet or dry. He insisted tha
corn, if planted deep in tho ground
would stand protracted drouth ad
mirably. After the corn was we
grown he resorted to sha low plougl
ing between the rows, so as not IT, CT
the roots. Many farmers are said [
neglect these simple rules, and so, in
dry season, make short crops.

RIGHT OF WAY
For Pipe Line Being Secured
Through This Parish.

A. NJ. Martin, representing
corporation of which Charles
Godchaux Of New Orleans is
member, has been engaged during
the week in securing the right of
way for a pipe line. We are i'm
formed that the pipe line is to run
from Beaumont to New Orleans
parallel with and as near the South
ern Pacific track as practicable.
The pipe is to be used for the con-
veyance of oil to New Orleans and
all points between that city and
Beaumont. 1t is believed that
pipe line from the Texas fields will
greatly reduce the price of oil, as
the cost of transportation will be
much less. Cheap oil would no
doubt do great deal toward de-
veloping the resources of this coun-
try. Already the reduction in the
cost of fuel, resulting from the sub
stitution of oil for coal, has been
felt throughout this section. If the
pipe line will give the people
cheaper oil the good that it will be
do is incalculable.

NEUROLOGICAL

Mr.. B. A. Sales died last Satur-
day afternoon at the home of his
son-in-law, DR.. H. G.. Sales, in
Lafayette. Mr.. Sales had been
sick quite a long time and several
days before his death his condition
was such that no hope of his re-
covery was entertained. A short
time before the end came he re-
ceived the sacraments of the Catho-
lie church, and spent his last hour
on earth preparing his soul for the
final journey.
Though sufferer from the dis
ease which eventually sapped his
once robust constitution and drew
from him ais last breath, he lived a
life of activity, giving his punctual
attention to his business until about
a month ago, whe'. he was no longer
able to leave his room. Despite
great suffering, Mr.. Sales was al
ways Of a cheerful, amiable temper
ament.
Mr.. Sales was a native of St.
Mary. He was born in that parish
on Dec. 8, 1896 During the Civil
war he served in the Confederate
army, and at the time of his death
! was member of Camp Gardner,
United Confederate Veterans, an
organization composed of the local
survivors Of the Southern army.
During the greater part of his life
Mr.. Sales was a resident of La
fayette and during that time many
good deeds were recorded in his
! favor. He was a charitable man
and gave unstintedly to the needy.
In the home circle the deceased
was loved with genuine sincerity,
and as 1t is no doubt correct that
the domestic estimate of man is
the safest criterion of his true
worth, that fact alone need be
stated to show that he possessed
many good qualities.
The remains of Mr.. SALES were
int rred in the Catholic cemetery
Sunday afternoon. His funeral
was very largely attended. He
leaves a widow and three children.
