OUR Blind TIGERS.
What the Lake Charles American
Says of Our Troubles.

While everything is serene in
all portions of the parish, the
people of Jennings are in the
throes of a Central American re.
volution over the blind tiger
epidemic.
The present trouble was preci-
pitated Saturday afternoon. An
unsupported anti-license man
went into one of the lairs of the
dreaded animal and innocently
called for whisky. A bottle con
tanning the brownish LIQUID that
passes under that name in prohi-
bition towns was set out on the
counter. whereupon the antibooz-
cite grabbed the bottle and dart
ing out the door, tledup the street
brandishing the bottle, to the
headquarters OF the law and Or
der league.

fusion in the raided poemises.

IT is with pleasure that the NEWS refers this week to the announce ment in this issue of H. c. Hibben for reelection to the office of county recorder Never in the history of the county has such a crisis as now stares us in the face been in evil dence, and the masterful way in which Mir Hibben has met all the obstacles, his close attention to business, his able efforts on behalf of the taxpayers, and his thorough knowledge of the situation with which the county is now wrestling, should, more than anything else. be a convincing argument for his re- election to the office of recorder this fall Mir Hibben is a good, staunch Republican, and will, without ques- ton, receive the nomination and full support of his party; but, aside from party feeling in the matter, the welfare of the county should be taken into consideration and the man best qualified should be given the undivided support of every tax payer, and that man, gentlemen, is Harry c. Hibben of Flagstaff.

Some considerable changes are being made in the plant for this special system of treatment upon which MT. George has recently secured patents, and the successful opera tion of the smelter, which is an assured fact, will mean much to this entire district.

HE WASN'T WoRRYING.-It is not
long snice that a Baltimore woman
visiting Colorado was starting for a
drive along Boulder canon. Her ideas
of a canon, acquired wholly from illus
trations, was Of mighty clefts in giant
rocks, and drive along it's edge meant
following a threadlike road where the
least swerving aside from the beaten
track might result in being dashed to
instant death.
Thinking to insure safe horses and
careful driving on the part of the liv-
eryman, she tried to impress him with
the fact that she was prominently con-
nected in her native city, her family
one Of wealth and much given to trav-
el, so that if any disaster overlook her
his reputation as liveryman would
suffer.
"Oh, that would be all right, am. u

taker-by profession, as well as a horse

to you, I assure you the remains would
be sent home in the most scientific and

shot off," An examination revealed

was a slight shock to his constitution.
Then it was found that while Smith
was directing the firing Of his men a
cannon ball struck the hill just below
his feet and, ploughing through, left
a hollow place, just under where he
was standing. The weight Of the CAP
tain caused his feet and legs to fall i'll
to the hole, and the shock from the
close proximity of the cannon ball had
thrown him on his back. And there he
lay with his feet and lower part Of his
legs partly buried. firmly convinced
that he had been crippled for life.-

MECKLENBURG's RoADs.-It Is mat
ter which especially concerns us all.
Our progress as a state depends large
ly upon the Improvement of our pub
lie highways, and our schools and
churches will reap the first and the
greatest fruits from good, smooth
roads. Mecklenburg county, corrugat-
ed as it is with red hills, and sticky
with "up country" clay, is delight to
the traveller as he glides along over Its
splendid roadways; and while Char
lotte is full Of bounding business life
and blessed with a population Of en-
ergetic citizens, yet much Of the mar
velous growth of that fine town is due
to the miles Of macadam which invites
trade, and makes it easy to do business
over the beautiful public roads lead
ing into it for a dozen miles in each
direction. We have lots to learn In
North Carolina about the value of good
roads.-Charity and Children.

Gen. Hughes and the Sentry.

General Hughes, who has just re-
turned from the Philippines after a
long stay, will tell you that a simple
private on sentry duty Is, for the time
being, a greater man than the wearer
Of stars. And he learned this from an
Irish private Of the volunteers.
The soldier was guardian over cap
tured Spanish storehouse, and he had
orders to pass no one without q special
order from the provost marshal Of Ma
nila, which position General Hughes at
that time held. When the provost
marshal drew near the storehouse he
became suddenly aware that If he per-
sisted in moving forward he would i'm
pale himself on a triangular Spring
field bayonet.
Haiti cried voice in rich brogue.
"You can't go in there"
"Why not?" asked the general.
"Niver mind" replied the private.
II know me orders. You can't go In
there without a pass from the provost
marshal"
But I'm the provost marshal, my
SELF" said General Hughes.
IT don't care If you're the president.
Devil foot do you set inside till you
show me a pass"
The general smiled, and drawing a
memorandum from his pocket, scrib-
bled a few lines on leaf. He handed
this to the sentry.
Every well, sor," said the private
when he had carefully perused the
pass. But why the divil didn't you
do that in the first place?'-San Fran
cisco Newsletter.

THOUGHT HIS LEGS WERE GONE
While in conversation with a rather
distinguished southerner. who had
been a colonel in the Confederate army
during the war, he told me a number of
incidents which he had noticed during
those days Of terror. One which he
vouched for as true was Of a Captain
Smith, who, with his men, was among
the Confederate forces fighting the
bluecoats from the side Of South Noun
tain. When there was lull in the fir
ing from both sides, a detail, accom-
panied by physicians, went out to pick
up the wounded. Captain Smith was
found lying broad on his back and,
when asked what was the matter with
