EXPENSIVE WATER IN HAMAKUA
Some People Shaving With Soda Water
Now

Now.
The Mauna Loa brought news today
of the drought in Hamakua. Water is
selling at 25 cents a pail. A drummer
went into a barber shop the other day
to secure a shave and was Informed that
he could not be served as there was no
water on hand to waste on shaving. The
travelling man did not propose to be
denied his shave so he went outside to
try and secure some water with which
to be shaved.
He did not feel warranted in paying
25 cents a pail for water and as there
was none nearby, he compromised mat
ters by buying bottle of soda pop and
returning to the shop with the stuff.
The barber then proceeded to shave the
man getting the lather with the soda
water. The sensation was a decidedly
novel one and from all accounts the
man will in future probably prefer ia
go with beard to repeating his soda
water shave.

OPENING CEREMONY
Of the Louisiana Industrial Institute
"A Most Interesting Program.
Gov. Heard Will Receive the Institute
in Behalf of the State-Presi-
dents Caldwell, BOvd and
AsNell Will be Present.

The general outlines of the pro-
gram for Saturday, June IS, the
day set for the occasion of opening
the m ain building of the Industrial
Institute, are as follows: First, a
program in the morning to consist
of the presentation of the building
by the Board of Trustees to the
State. Governor Heard will re-
ceive for the State and turn over
the keys of the building into the
keeping of the President of the In
stitute. Then will follow a dedica-
tory Grafton. The orator has not yet
been selected. Second, it is expected
that the local Fire Department will
arrange for an afternoon program,
to consist of their annual parade
and civic display, at about five
O'Clock.
Third, the program arranged
for the evening is to consist Of
briet addresses of greeting from the
representatives of other institutions
of learning in the State. President
Aswell, of the Industrial Institute
at Ruston, President Caldwell, of
the State Normal School, and Presl-
dent Boyd Of the State University,
have already accepted invitations
to be present. Representatives
from Tulane University, from Cen
tenary College, and from other
schools in the State are expected.
An effort is being made to secure
excursion rates along all lines good
from June II to 16 inclusive, and,
excursion trains from Morgan City
and from Opeiousas in time for the
morning program Saturday. The
Southwestern Louisiana Summer
Normal School and Chautauqua, to
assemble at Franklin, June 10, will
form special excursion to attend
this celebration.
The Industrial Institute has no
faculty and no pupils as yet; to get
these it must be given sufficient
time; but in the meanwhile, and at
all times, it will have the loyal help
and support of the whole people.
Therefore when the inquiry begins
to be made, whose good taste will
direct, whose fair hands help, and
whose gracious presence encourage,
the work of decoration and prepare
ton for seemly appearance of the
building on that day, we feel sure
that the public spirited ladies of
Lafayette and their daughters will
make a fitting answer.

A SAD CASE.
H. 8. Jantzen. Young Man
From Houston. Comm
Suicide.

Tuesday morning a we'll dressed
young man of genteel appearance
registered at the Star and Crescent
Hotel as s.H. S. Jantzen, Houston. "
The next day he was seen about
town. He bought some articles in
two or three stores and called at
the banks to transact some bust
ness. During the day he INDUCED
somewhat in strong drinks, but be-
haved very we'll both IN town and
at the hotel.
The hotel people say that though
he appeared excited at times he was
not at all boisterous. He impressed
every one with the fact that he was
a person of sood-breeding and re-
finement. He remained at the hotel
until Wednesday morning when he
ate breakfast, settled his bill with
the clerk and walked away.
Shortly after he was. seen going
toward the Oak Avenue. Later
some one saw him near the Protes-
tant Cemetery. Subsequently two
pistol shots were heard. Soon
after it was ascertained that the
young man who had passed a while
before had killed himself. His
body lay almost in the shade of the
large oak which is at the entrance
of the cemetery. DR.. ]. F. Mouton,
had entered just be, cath the right
ear. One bullet pierced through
and through; the other lodged
in the head. 1t was
clearly a case of self-des:ruction
and the jury SO declared. Mr.. vi
gneaux, the undertaken, took charge
Of the body. DR.. Mouton commu-
nicated with the Chief of Police of
Houston to inquire about the family
Of the young man. During the
night telegram was received from !
his brother who arrived on the |
noon train the next day. He said |
that he could not think of any thing
which could have caused his brother
to commit suicide. II was all a
mystery to him. He stated that
his brother was the favorite of an
aged father; he had all that he
and at no time showed any
symptoms of melancholy. He
vas studying dentistry and was
ioing we'll.
1t was decided to bury the un-
fortunate young man here and
Thursday afternoon his remains
we're inferred in the Protestant
cemetery, fifty yards from the spot
where he killed himself The older
brother, who had come from Hous
on, wePt bitterly as the body was
owered into the grave. Rev. c.
=. Wier, who performed the simple,
hough imposing, funeral rites of
he Methodist church, delivered a
'ery touching prayer. AS the min
ster spoke the word Of God and
INVOKED His benevolence to assuage
he grief of the stricken family, there
melt at the grave of the unhappy
'outh a score Of mourners, who,
hOugh strangers to him, mingled
With the bereaved brother in sorrow
I'll meditation which was as sincere
S it was pathetic. Just as the sun
disappeared after a days journey,
he dust was thrown over the coffin,
he little party of svmpathizers left
he solemn home of the dead and
light lowered it's dark curtain over
tragedy as sad and inexplicable as
cath itself.

IS 1T TRUE d?
The Impressions of a Stranger
Lost IN the AnSe Labutte
ROad-Tells Of Vast Gold
Deposits.

The following, which seems to b,
the impressions of a stranger, wa.
found not far from the bridge il
the Anse Labutte road. 1t wa:
found by young man who kindly
brought it t. this office. 1t was
written on note paper and carefully
wrapped in a bundle with samples
of rocks, sard, greasy soil, and
prospectuses of oil companies. The
young man informed US that nea,
the bundle were footprints which
lead directly to a hole, freshly dug,
and about two to three feet deep.
Near this hole was found a marked
copy of the Cripple Greek, (Col.
Tribune, containing an article rela-
tive to certain mining operations.
On the margin of the paper was
written in legible hand the name
of GA. Dranac."
Investigations have failed to dis
close the identity of Mr.. Dranac,
who, we suppose, is the author.
Nevertheless, we print his impress
sions, which, no doubt, will prove
interesting at this time:
"Do these people know they are
living in country richer, far richer,
in the precious metal than the
famous Klondike?
''Do they know that they are
treading over the rarest of gold
bearing earth every day?
"While it has been known that
no finer or better agricultural lands
than these were to be found on the
face of the earth--lands made by
lands and being deposited here by
the great father of waters--it was
never dreamed until within very
short time that while these lands
were being formed, particles, yes
quantities, of the yellow metal,
washed out from the veins and
placers of the distant mountains
and plains of the North, were being
silted over these lands? Recent
studies in scientific treatment of
earths for the extraction of miner
ais have made amazing advance
ment and the uses of that myste-
rious energy, electricity, and COM
bination of chemicals, have brought
to light store-houses Of treasure
never dreamed of. Some one has
discovered these great mines and
will no longer be able to conceal
the great store of bright metal &C
What means all these
diggings over the prairie, along the
railroad tracks, near the woods,
the streams? At last the
mystery is revealed. Some one has
the secret.
s'Within the last few weeks it is |
reported that gold-pure gold-has
been found by accident near Lake |
Arthur and strange to say the owner
Of the property IS now in Klondike |
seeking gold treasures. 1t is also |
said to have been found in other
places. Who knows but soon this
soil that by Its returns so gladdens
The heart of its worker as now he
turns it up to the growing cane,
cotton and corn, will be shoveled
nto conveyors for reduction and
separation for more valuable re-
:urns and the crops neglected.?
"What a wonderful land this ISL
The dreams Of the widest enthusiast
ire being surpassed! But few
weeks will elapse before the ocean
IF oil now stored below your farms
will be gushing to the surface in a
black stream, surely to revolution
re the industrial affairs of the
world"

SAFE BLOWERS
 BUSY AT ATHENS
The Postoffice Safe Blown Open and $250 in Cash Taken.
 Papers Not MoIested

Athens May 30-(Special) )-The people morning by the report of an explosion, but could not locate the place whence 1t came until Postmaster York reached his office, when he discovered that the post office had been visited by professional burglars, the safe blown to pieces and the entire contents carried away. The burglars were after cash only. and this they secured to the amount of something like s250. The postoffice is situated on the public square. next door to handsome jewelry establishment and in very com pact portion of the town. where clerks sleep in almost every building. The re- port of the explosion was heard about 2 o'clock in the morning, and while untitled, 1t WAS thought to be gun shot. But lit- tie attention was paid to it, yet the effect was felt in the immediate neighborhood. When Dr. York entered the postoffice this morning he found lot of smithy tools. The door of the safe had been blown across the room and the furniture dam aged. The safes contents were on the floor, but not paper, so far as found, was damaged or molested and several hundred dollars worth of stamps were found as the robbers left them, but all the cash was missing. The doors and drawers to other furniture had been opened and their contents sifted for cash. It Is presumed that the burglars reached town on the midnight train and went di- rectly to work. having previously spied out the land. They gained an entrance by prying open the front door and made an exit through the rear door. A lamp had been taken from the office and was sit- ting down near the safe, still burning.

OUTLOOK BRIGHT
 FOR THE NEW ROAD
The Promoters of the Decatur, DanvlIIe & Southwestern
 SayIt Will be Built

New, Decatur, May s0.-(Special.)-U. s. Grant Post,' Grand Army of the Republic, met this afternoon and marched to the city cemetery, where they decorated the graves of their dead comrades.
 A most interesting program of speeches and songs was rendered at the cemetery just before the graves were strewn with flowers
 On former Decoration days Horace King Camp, United Confederate Veterans, have joined hands with their comrades who wore the blue, and together they decorated the graves of their respective dead. To- day this part of the programme could not be carried out on account of nearly all the ex-Confederates being in attendance at their annual reunion in Memphis.
 The indication seems quite favorable for the early construction of the Decatur, Danville and Southwestern railroad.
 Attorney D. W. Speake of Decatur has been employed to draw up articles of incorporation, deeds for franchise, notice of the opening of the stock books and other necessary blanks.
 Major Godfrey of Sumpter county, has written to Hon. L. P Troup of this city. saying that he and his associates will donate twenty-two miles of graded track if the road will pass through their county. Major O'Connell, who Is representing the railroad people, said he didn't think this donation could be used by his people.
 It will be remembered that John Carlisle of Cincinnati and Gustaf Bottiger of Stockholm, Sweden, were here last week and went over the line of the proposed road. They were induced to come here by Jos. E. Mooney, the multi-millionaire leather manufacturer of Cincinnati.
 Upon the occasion of their visit here last week it was given out that Messrs. Carlisle and Bottiger represented unlimited capital, but as to who is backing the venture could not be learned. In an in- terview with Attorney D. w. Speake this afternoon he told your correspondent that he did not know who was backing the company.
 All sorts of wild rumors. regarding the road, are being circulated, but as yet none of them can be substantiated. One rumor is to the effect that the Southern railway is at the back of the scheme, and another says that MT. Jos. E. Mooney of Gin cinnati is largely interested, from the fact that this proposed road passes through forests of chestnut and chestnut-oak and that M. Mooney is desirous of getting this wood and bark for the large tannery and tanning ooze extract works which his company own and operate here.
