All the public schools in It.
Landry parish have been closed ex-
cept the high schools at Opelousas
and Washington. In our opinion
the reverse should be the case. The
primary schools should be kept
open, and give the younger chill
dren an opportunity to learn how
to read, write and cipher. Tht
public school fund should be uset
in. teaching the rudiments of edu
cation, and if it is necessary Z
deprive any children OF = schools
| it should be those who have At
tanned proficiency enough to ente

The severest weather of the WIN
ter set in here last Friday night,
with a heavy RAIN, followed by
sleet and snow, and a cold north
wind. The snow remained all day
in the shade, and there were q few
SNOWFALL games during the morn
ing. The lowest point reached by
the thermometer was - degrees.
The cold snap doubtless caused
some suffering among live stock,
but very little damage was done
to crops.

Don't Grow Old Too Sconi
In this rapidly moving world Of ours. many
head is turned gray before its time. and old
men and women are rs common among us
though not so attractive-as the flowers OF

naturally suggests itself, can I recover n lost
strength and health. and If so. howl
Yes, If you will take the White Cross Kid
ney and Liver Tea. according to directions,
yor will soon notice the change. The blood
will goow richer, color will return to the sailow
cheek, appetite return, sleep revisit the weary
brain, and food is once more assimilated.
Health is re-established.

THE CUVINGTON BRASS
BAND.
Covington, La, Feb. Is, 1901.

Covington, La, Feb. Is, 1901.
To Whom 1t May Concern:
There being numerous inquiries
around Covington in regard to
what are the expenses of the band,
and what use has the band for the
money they have accumulated,
and why is it that bands have to
give entertainments, etc. to dcfray
their expenses, We will cndcavor
to take great pains IN explaining
this matter in print, so that any
one will understand the cost Of
running band of from IL to Is
men: First, in establishing the
oand several years ago, the instru-
ments were bought as cheaply as
possible, simply to learn on, as
costly instruments would prove no
value to any beginning band, as
the use Of these instruments for
that number of years they materi-
ally wear, break and become dent
ed, and generally deprecated. We
are replacing these instruments
with new ones Of the latest and
best make. from the music house
of Lyon & Healy, of Chicago.
The cost OF these instruments are
from ten to twenty dollars each.
As soon as the band is financially
able, their intention is to get a
band uniform, having already
bought = set of the latest style Ma
rine band caps. Second: The aver
age cost of the band is from Is to
20 dollars per month; this Is a
general expense for card aud book
mueic, sheet music, room rent,
lights and instructor, repairs and .
great many odds and ends.
On the excursion to Vaudeville,
last August, we realized 90 dollars.
This was nearly exhausted after
paying some back debts of the
band, but by using considerable
economy We had $40 left in the
hank. When we gave the concert
on January IA, at Pythian Hall, we
realized sl3e, and now out of this
fund comes the expense of new
instruments, ETC., which are very
essential to both the band and COM
munity, who have always kindly
responded to our call and gave us
all the assistance they could. The
band is now well established, COM
posed Of some Of the best young
men of Covington, and in a forward
way 10 success, being able to play
any music called for-Balts, Pic
mes. Public speaking. etc. Of
course, a Band in any community.
almost, has 10 depend upon the
aid of the citizens interested there
in, in which we take great pleasure
in saying that We have always met
with this appreciated aid. On the
other hand We would like to explain
that any person who is not familiar
with Brass Bands AMI their move
ments, could scarcely form an idea
of the running expenses Of same.
| In conclusion We desire to thank
%he public for the favOrs of the
past, and sincerely hope that vi
NAV meet with the same success il
the future.
Any information in regard t
band matters will be agreeably
answered. Very Respectfully.

REORGANIZATION OF
THE NATIONAL GUARD
Secretary OF. War Root Will Discuss
the Question and Leave the
Solution to Congress.

Washington, Nov. 14.-In the forthcom-
Ing annual report of the Secretary OF
Vi ar, the question of the reorganization
u, the entire National Guard will be dis
tusscd. Secretary Root will make no
specific recommendation covering this
u ork, the matter being left in the hands
Of Congress for such legislation as will
make the guard of greater value to the
country in time of war or internal dis
turbances.
+ The suggestion will be made that the
regulars and State troops should be
brought together in joint manoeuyres on
training grounds, to be provided for tao
teal instruction, and that officers of the
militia receive every facility for securing
practical military instruction equal to that
now given the officers of the regulars
| Congress will be asked to fix and deter.
mine the question Of status, which has
| for more than century been a sore point
between the militia and the regulars
Secretary Root will not favor any par
| ticular form of reorganization, hut mere
! y suggests the adyisability OF remedia
legislation on the vital points affecting
the two branches of the military lant
forces between whom there has alway,
been more or less friction. While it Il
generally felt that the militia should b,
brought more fully under Federal con
troll. there is much opposition to this
and Congress will be asked to give care
ful consideration to the questions, ant
also to make more liberal appropriation
for the use of the National Guard. I'm
mediate action by Congress will be asked
