CANDIDATES IN THE SEVENTH.
Captain Norris Withdraws From the
-Blackmau-POlk Fight.

AS time passes the Seventh Congress
sional fight narrows down, the latest
to withdraw from the race being Capt.
w. b. Norris, of Calcasieu parish,
leaving Hon. y. L. Pujo an open field
in this parish. In speaking of the
withdrawal of Captain Norris, the
Lake Charles American says:
"Following the example of Senator
H. G. Drew, Captain w. Is. Norris
has authorized his withdrawal from
the congressional race and upon his
return from his mill up the X. G. S.
will give formal notice of the fact.
This generous and timely action of
Captain Norris sustains his reputa-
ton as loyal and large minded dem
ocrat who will not let his personal
ambition or the desire of his friends
stand in the way of his parish or his
party.
The withdrawal of Captain Norris
was arranged for at a conference be-
tween several of his friends and men,
bers of Mr.. Pujo's campaign commit
tee which was held this morning. Cap
tain Norris was obliged to leave town
on BUSINESS, but gave his friends carte
blanche to act for him. After thorough
discussions of the situation the captain s
friends decided to withdraw him and
give Mr.. Pujo the right of way.
Captain Norris action leaves Cal
casieu in position to make Il fight
for Mr.. a. p. Pujo alone, with an eye
single to his nomination. The Amer
lean congratulates the CalcaSieu dem
ocracy upon the favorable outcome of
a badly mixed situation, leaving them
with an able, dignitied and successful
young man as a candidate upon whom
they can all unite. Mr.. Pujo stands
high over the district and will poll
splendid vote in every parish. If Cal
casieu democrats do their duty on
September II and get out ii full vote
at the primary, they will have the
honor of giving the Seventh district a
Congressman of whom the entire dis
trict may well feel proud"

BORING TO BE RESUMED SOON.
New Machinery Ordered, Derrick Re-
paired and Wreckage Cleared Away.

The drillers have completed the
work of eXcavating the boiler, ma
chinery and pipes which were buried
in sand and sulphur by the now ia
nous wild gusher that came in SO
suddenly and with such fury last
week The havoc wrought by the
blowout seems almost incredible, but
the big stones thrown hundred yards
distance, together with the tons of
sand about the we'll gives only a con-
else description of the miraculous per-
formance of .he we'll. Since the salt
water has evaporated quantities
of oil can be seen in little pits and
covering the sand and earth.
The derrick has been repaired and
the pipe and machinery needed have
been ordered and is expected here this
week, in which event boring will be
resumed the first of next week. Elk
citement continues to run high regard
| ing the situation here and prominent
| men from ali sections of the oil dis
trict have been here to look over the
oil field. Many have already invested
in oil lands and there is a likelihood
| of two or three new companies being
in operation here within the next
month or six weeks.
Saturday the rotary, weighing about
240O pounds, which was blown to the
top of the derrick and there lodged
about the piping, fell and struck the
engine. breaking off the throttle.
Driller Clay feels confident that the
well is perfectly clear or distinctions
and no difficulty whatever will be eX-
perienced when the machinery is In
readiness to begin boring again.

Up in Rapides parish they seem to
still be having much discussion as to
who is the stronger man between Judge
w. F. Blackman and Hon. William
Polk. Judge Blackman has done his
best to persuade Polk to submit to IL
parish primary for the settlement of
the dispute. but the willy young legis-
lator bids the venerable Judge may,
nay in the following tones:

and dates have been set to make
speeches in the principal cities in the
district, and where the judge has Civ
en- me the opportunity Of making the
selections myself, which [ could easily
do, which would guarantee his retire
ment by selecting my own friends, l
would not care to exercise this advan-
tage and which would give him an OPP
portunity of saying [ had taken an
unfair advantage of him. [ care for
no advantages that he himself does
not enjoy and wish to be nominated
or defeated by a free, untrammeled,
honest expression of the citizens of
this district in a primary election,

Severely Injured by Line Shaft.

E. D. Caffman, an engineer on the
Suffer plantation near Roanoke, hap
pened to Il very painful and serious
accident Saturday morning. He was
adjusting some machinery when set
screw on the end of line shaft in
some way caught in his clothing. Re
alizing his danger the unfortunate
man tightly embraced an upright
piece to which the machinery was at
tached which perhaps saved him from
a horrible death. His clothing was
torn from his body and he was severe
ly injured internally and otherwise.
He was taken to the Charity Hospital
in New Orleans that afternoon for
treatment. The injuries may result
fatally.

good exhibition of base ball.

4 DECIDED LULL.-As is generally
ii @ case after the close of the holiday
season, there lie decided lull in every
thing throughout and extreme quletness
prevails everywhere. There have been
no cases for trial 10 the Police Court for
the past three days, nor has there been
any disorders. The police report lsss
night as having been very quiet. The
lethargy In business point OF view Will
probably continue for a few days, but
there Is every indication OF an impetus
being impaired to all Alexandria indus
tries during 1902. As was stated In the
Gazette on the last day Of the old year,
the city is apparently at the threshold
of o new era, and while some of the
beneficial effects are being felt, there Is
believed to be much more In store for
the near future. The city has started
Alright, and although some OF its enter
prises are as yet embryonic, the out
look is encouraging. The few Industries
which have been inaugurated here will
surely grow, and there is reason to be-
levs they are the pioneers OF others.
With work for all money will be put IN
circulation and every branch Of trade
will be benefited.

Thomas Doughefty made sensational
entrance with q Colts revolver 10 bis

notorious character, who was out Of
his element 10 house OF worship, at
tempted to take the gun from Dough
srty, and was knocked down. The
minister had to dodge flying lead when
Dausherty began shooting, but he es-
capped harm. Coakley was killed In
the "amen corner" With the revolt
yer still raised, Dougberty left the
church, daring the negroes to follow.
He was pursued for two miles by a
posse and was captured later. Dough-
erty came from Indiana last week, and
