GOV. TAYLOR
Lectures to IA Large Audience In
the Industrial Auditorium.

Ex-GOv. Bob Taylor, the most
States and deservedly known as
the prince of entertainers, lee
tured at the Chautauqua We'd
nesday night. Those who have
heard the brilliant Tennessean
deliver The Fiddle and the
Bow Dixie, 'LOve, Song
and Laughter, agreed that his
recent production, The Old
Plantation, is as good as. if not
better than. any one of the three
first lectures which long ago won
for their author an enviable pO-
SitiOn among the foremost lee
turerS of America. AS is al
ways the case with Gov. Taylor.
he attracted a large audience,
many people having come from
Crowley. OpelOuSaS and other
towns to hear him. 1t is safe to
say that more than % per cent
Of the people present were from
the adjoining towns. Crowley
was particularly we'll repre-
Sented.
To say that the audience en-
jOyed the lecture is to say what
everybody knew would be the
case. Bob Taylor is an orator.
a poet. a musician and come
dian. and with all these qualities
it is not strange that he has at
tanned to the highest eminence
on the lecture platform.
The Gazette cOngratulateS
Prof. Alleman upon having Sc
cured such high-class enter
tainment for the chautauqua.

SUCCESSFUL CLOSE
or a. Very Successful SeSS on OF
the South Louisiana Summer
School and Chautauqua.

school ever held in Louisiana. The
faculty was one of the strongest
ever sent out to do summer
leadership of the conductor. DR..
James II. Dillard. everything
was running smoothly by the
end of the first week.
The summer school has been Il
distinct success in every way.
All of the teachers who have at
tended are going away with a
greater love for their work. with
Il better conception of the prob
lens of education, and with an
inspiration that will make itself
felt in their SchOOl- houses. The
school has been Il source Of
pleasure and instruction to the
people of the town and they have
spared neither pains nor eX-
pense to make the visiting
teachers have Il grand time.
The Gazette believes that the
hospitality shown the faculty
and students has never been
surpassed at any session of
any summer school ever held in
the State.
The closing week has been the
best of the term and the teachers
have maintained the same en-
thuSiaSm that was manifested
from the beginning. There has
never been Il more earnest body
of students than that assem- bled
in Lafayette. The record made
! by the students as a whole has
been most satisfactory
The school was visited by citi
zenS of the town every day and
every visitor has expressed him
self as we'll pleased with the work
done in the school and especially
with the work done in the model
! school. We venture to say that
It had never been thought DOSSi-
BILE to do so much as has been
done by the teachers of the
model school in the short space
OIL louI NtehS ne tcdtllelS Ill
attendance have had the uppOr-
tunity to observe modern Scion-
titic teaching and they are going
home better teachers as the re-
suit of their observations. The
value of a summer school can not
be nverpStimated and Lafayette
may justly be- proved of having
been the seat Of the second SEES
sion of the South Louisiana
Summer School and Chautauqua
The closing week contained a
unique feature in tn" way OF
contests. Miss Russell. who
was in charge of the model
school. conceived the idea OF
having Il contest among the
teachers. in telling stories tc
children. She maintains that
story telling is an important part
of school work in the primary
grades which is SnrelN neglected
in the country schools. In Orde1
to place this part of the work
prominently before the student
body a prize was offered to the
teacher who proved most efficient
in telling stories. There WerC
six contestants and the prize
was awarded to Miss WolfOrd Ot
ST. Mary.
The chautauQua course OF Ice
) turcS w as satisfactory through

order and was selected SO as t,
please all. Lafayette enjoys the
distinction of being the thirC
T. town OF Louisiana in which iQuiC

concluded the days exercises
with "a splendid fete at Parker
sons grove. The patriotism,
the public spirit, the culture of
the town, were there. They had
come together to help the tiremen
celebrate the nations natal day.
The firemen. the band boys, ali
taStily dressed. and the neatly
decorated carriages, lent en-
chantment to the occasion and
made it look like Il genuine, old
fashioned turnout when the
Declaration of Independence
meant great deal more and the
flag typitied the immortal truths
that men are created equal
and that governments derive
their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed.
But the conspicuous feature OF
the day was the splendid speech
of former Senator Don Catfery.
It was a characteriStically hon
est utterance of the man, eN-
pressed in elegant dictiOn and
spoken with that fervOr born
alone of conviction. which re-
minded one of the best days
when men said what they
thought. As a member of the
United States Senate Mr.. CAT
ferry was the consistent OppO-
nent of imperialism. He stood
almost alone in opposition to the
scheme of the imperialiStS. Tn
moved by the wave which swept
over the country. he remained
loyal to the principles of free
government and spoke and voted
against the whole scheme from
! Hawaii to the Philippines.
| Whatever else may have been

! he handled with such force. clo-
uuence and logic. In his speech
yesterday Mr.. Catfery ~ewed
+ good seed. His speech was cal
culated to make the citizen

principles which just now need

confiscated more than 100000 cards.

Smiths scheme according TO lnspe ctor
Stuart, was to have a printing company
enamel a quantity of the cards, as
though they were to be used for legiti-
mate purpose. He engaged another
firm to engrave a plate with Jetferson's
head on an imitation card. Still another
engraved "the United States of Ameri-

parts together and thus complete an ex-
cellent imitation postal card.
Inspector Stuart says that from the
business in cardboard and from other
evidence he has he thinks that Smith
must have made millions OF the cards
and that he sold all he made to all parts

CATION OF the cause of Gabrins death on
c Jroner Koran, and he minced no words
in doing SO. In DR.. Kleiner's sworn
statement he said that he gave the
chemists report to Coroner Koran
showing arsenic poisoning. and called
Horan's attention to the fact that Albert
Gabrin died from poisoning on February
last. Notwithstanding this, Coroner
Horau took no action and the present
investigation might never have been had
had not newspaper reporter stumbled
onto some OF the facts six weeks later in
investigating story that Mrs Gabrin
was going to sue Fitz Thies, the liquor
dealer who sold the wine to the Gabrin
family.
So far Coroner Horan's examination Of
witnesses has appeared az an attempt to
provo that Gabrin died OF typhoid fever
and not from poisoning.
Dr. Kleiner was on the witness stand
the entire morning He went more
into detail regarding the death Of Swift
Hensley, Mrs Gabfiu's SOD and gave
testimony which tended to show con-
cIusively that Albert Gabrin WAS pos-
oned.
