Last week large number of
boys were brought up before
Judge Robert Brown for sneaking
up in the Opera House and dis
fslrbing the peace Rout there.
The Judge did not fide them, but
stated that the next time they
we're brought before him, they
would have to pay a fine or be i'm
prisoned. This week there were
but few boys gathered about the
Opera House before or after the
commencement Of the performances
and the management Of the Opera
House and the police officers are
to be congratulated on bringing
about this condition, as in the past
these boys made any amount OF
unnecessary noise during the
progress Of the performance and
frequently blocked up the side
walk in front Of the Opers
House.

Monday we went to New Iberia.
The new depot building is a nice
structure, severe in architecture ;;
but very fine in accommodation. In
the office we made the acquain-
lance Of young man of great
promise, because Of peculiar gifts,
Mr.. w. 0. Iigon, Jr, ticket agent
aud train dispatcher. The greatest
rush of business did not disconcert
him, but rather made him while all
alone-hustle a little. He is the
son of a prominent citizen and
politician in North Mississippi,
Mr.. w. o. Llgon, once District
Attorney under Uncle Sam, up
there. Young Ligon must be a
perfect chip out Of the old block,
for We took him to be a Republican
at first sight, which proved true
Nothing can prevent him from
succeeding here i'll Louisiana, for
the good stuff is in him. Another
man we met in the Iberian office
Ia Mr.. Chambers from Kentucky.
The pleasant, smiling face, the
bright eye Of wlde-awake intelli-
gence betrayed him to be RepuE-
;ican and he was no doubt glad to
meet us. We have always
wondered how it is that Brother
Willard is a Democrat. In this

appeared IN a few minutes they
wore the face nature gave them and
with smile on it, bound for goo q

At about eleven o'clock the re-
