i'RfAStl =, La, MARCH 20,
The Editor of The Lafayette Gazette:
L announce with great salts
faction that Mr.. Alcide Judice,
of Scott, has decided to keep
open the Scott and Matthieu
schools for two months imme-
diately after the close of the
present session. The public
spirited action of Mr.. Judice in
maintaining these two schools
for two months at his own ex-
pense is an example worthy of
emulation. The citizens of the
town and parish of Lafayette
should take up the matter at
once.
If the Scott and Matthieu
schools will have a ten months,
session why can not the schools
of YOungsville, of BrOuSsard. of
Lafayette, of CarencrO and of
the entire parish have ten
months? Other communities
have already taken up the matter.
and L believe from the past ac-
tiOn of CarencrO with reference
to school matters. that I am
safe in saying that her progress
SiVe Council and citizens will see
to it that CarencrO will have a
session of ten months this wear.
The town of Lafayette is not
without public-spirited citizens
and her town Council would do
it's duty if the people asked for
a continuation of the session
after the eight months which the
parish will be able to give.

cational facilities as she has

SPURNS FAT WALLET.
Actress Rebecca warren Rejects At
tentions of Ardent and Per-
sistent sutton.

Rebecca Warren, the actress who is
rusticating at Mount Clemens, while
near her hotel picked up from the
sidewalk fiat, long green pocket
book. Opening it she found that be-
sides a lot of small bills it contained
ten silver certificates of $1,000 each.
There also were a number of New
York drafts, together with cards in
scribed John Warwick. Gordon,
AS, en-, Colorado"
Just as she was entering the hotel
a fine-looking man, well dressed,
stop ed her and in hesitating man
ner said he had lost his pocketbook,
and, pointing to the one she still held
in her hand, asked her if she had
found it..
Then, to her amazement, Gordon
said that he had worshiped her from
afar ever since she had arrived in
Mount Clemens; that he had DELHI
erately placed the book with all its
valuable contents where she would
be sure to find it. He told her that
he loved her ardently, and that il
she would marry him not only that
book but vast mining interests in Col
orado should be hers. They would
go to Europo-sor year a.d 49, ? :
return would live in New York or any
other place she might designate, sur
rounded by every luxury, He inn
plored her to consent to his proposal,
and urged an immediate marriage.
Miss Warren's feelings may be inn
agined. She repulsed him abruptly.
Then she hurried to her room and
INDUCED in n good cry. The next
day there came magnificent basket
of roses from Detroit florist, with
a note beseeching her to give up her
starring in East Lynne" next sea-
son and accept his offer of marriage,
which he renewed with many assur-
ances of profoundest love.
Miss Warren sent the roses and let
ter to the office with instructions
not to receive any more of the kind
for her, vowing that if the man per-
sisted in his persecution she would
leave Mount Clemens.

EIGHTEEN HOURS ON BRINK.
The Terrible Experience of Young
Couple While Climbing Colo
RADIO Peaks.

Clinging to narrow rock shelf on
the bald activities of Cook Stove
mountain, near Colorado Springs,
Col, hungry, thirsty and suffering
from cold, Samuel Lower, of Upton,
Ia, and Miss Goldie Mutchins, of Tip
pecanoe City, o., lived through 1s
hours of terrible experience perched
10000 feet above the sea level and
1000 feet above human habitation.
The couple undertook to climb the
peaks and reached ledge 100 feet
above the point whence they started,
When they wished to descend they
found that could not. All the after
noon and night they were imprisoned
on the ledge until rescuers who had
climbed to the top of the peak in
their search for the couple located
them by Lowers cries for help.
1t was necessary to return to camp
for ropes with which to rescue them.
When these arrived the couple were
hauled up the face of the rock. only
to fall fainting at the feet of their
rescuers. The girl is but II years OF
age and delicate. How she survived
the exposure is mystery to her
friends.

LONG RIDE THROUGH PERSIA
Horseback Trip OF One Thousand
.-iies Made by Minister GriscOm
and His Wife.

Private advices from Teheran, Per
STA, announce the return of Lloyd
Griscom, the United States minister
to Persia, and Mrs. Griscom, from a
1,000-mile ride on horseback through
central and west central Persia. The
trip was undertaken to secure in
formation with the view of building up
American commerce in Persia.
The great Persian trade routes, the
Karun river, and the old highway
from Teheran to Bagdad were closely
iny estigated. Mr.. Griscom was pre-.
vented from entering Turkey, owing
to the quarantine against Persia.
His journey entailed plenty of hard,
ship, and strange experiences, but had
excellent results. The Persians every
where expressed their pleasure at his
visit. Mr.. Griscom travelled officially
and Was received with full honors in
all the cities. The governor of lspa-
han, who is the shah's brother, ac-
corded Mr.. Griscom great reception.
The American missionaries at Hama
dan also received on this occasion their
first visit from an American minister

DENUDE CANADIAN ARCH.
Sparrows and Pigeons Enjoy Feast
of Rich GRAMS brought to Grace
Coronation Ceremonies.

There is hardly tragedy that has
not its humorous side. No triumphal
arch of them all attracted more at
tention from the public or was beheld
with greater pride by it's builders than
the Canadian arch down by West
minister. 1t was decorated artistical-
ly, almost entirely with Canadian
grain. 1t the middle OF the arch, just
under its towering summit, was an or
chestra loft for a band of Canadian
musicians.
From the public, which was eager
to pick mementoes, the police success
fully guarded the beautiful arch, but
they could not protect 1T from its
other enemies. Thousands of spar
rows awoopcd down on it, gorged
themselves, with the good fat grain
and shamelessly destroyed the decora.
tons they could not devour. Then the
more timid pigeons, which live in the
walls of the war office, unable to con-
tinue their self-denial any longer
joined the sparrows in glorious
feast, one being caught in its fall, UNI
able to fly from it's over hearty meal.
The spectators laughed and chatfed
the police as they stood there under
the rain OF seed and husksI powerless
to prevent the work Of destruction.
But, as one bluecoat said: birds will
be birds. They don't have triumphal
arches to deVour every day"

MILLIONS TO CHARITY.
Whole Fortune to Establish Work
in Aid of Deserving Poor.

Four million dollars, practically all
the savings of a life of thrift and bust
ness success, given to charity by John
N. Burke, is the fund with which the
Winifred Masterson Burke Relief
Foundation began its existence in New
York the other day. The organiza-
ton is named for Mr.. Burke's moth
err, and will seek to Tighten the burdens
of the deserving poor. The trustees of
the fund are former Mayor Abram S.
Hewitt, William Hubbard White and
Edwin M. Shepard.
Mr.. Burke, the founder of this great
benefaction, lives at 1s West Forty
second street. Several years ago he re-
tired from business with an ample for
tune, which has since been increased
by judicious investments. He is now
far advanced in years. Having no near
relatives, Mr.. Burke decided some time
ago to dedicate in his lifetime a sub
stantial part of his estate to the relief
of worthy men and women.
Desiring to see the project started in
his lifetime, he has conveyed the prop
erty to the corporation. The income,
however, less the expenses of admins
tration, is reserved for him for his life
time. After his death the whole in
come will be devoted to the purpose Of
the foundation. The trustees have
very broad powers, but the trust deed
specifies this:
"The benefits Of the foundation shall
be reserved for intelligent and respect
able men and women who, in conse-
quence of sickness or discharge from
hospitals before they have regained
strength sufficient to earn their live
lihood, or in consequence of other mis-
fortune, may be in need of temporary
assistance"
Plans have already been devised for
carrying out the charity.

TRAINS AT EDWARDS COURT.
The Kings Attempt mt Dress Reform
Leads to n Tilt with the
Dressmakers.

King Edward undertook to reform
the conditions at court by ordering
that no trains should be worn by Ia
dies attending the royalfunctions. This
pleased the ladies, but Mortified the
dressmakers, who reap rich harvest
from the additional cost of the long
trains of court dresses, says a London
paper. Then the king was besieged by
influential personages, spurred on, and.
it is even limited, commissioned by the
dressmakers to secure a change of the
orders. The royal mind was finally
convinced that trains were necessary
to the maintenance of a proper stand
ard Of court dignity, and the original
order was cancelled. The train-makers
had triumphed. But the change in or
ders left many ladies trainless, they
having eagerly welcomed the chance to
Tighten both the physical and the finan-
cial burdens of train-wcaring. So an
other appeal has been made to the
court to admit these trainless ones to
the functions, and special DISPENSE
ton was granted in their cases. But
hereafter woe betide the woman who
presents herself to the lord chamber
lain for admission to the royal pres
ence bereft of sweeping following of
silk, satin, lace and the other costly
materials which enter into the compo-
sition Of those useless, cumbersome
and bill-swelling features of ceremo-
NAL dress.

ECONOMY IN DRESS REFORM.
Cincinnati Woman Models skirt and
Waist Which VIII Cost Only One
Dollar and Twenty-Five Cents.

DIR. Clara Bruce wore specially
made reform dress and spoke on
dress reform the other afternoon be-
fore the Twentieth Century club at
Cincinnati. The dress consists of II
plain gored skirt and white shirt
waist with full sleeves, fastened with
small cuff.
DR.. Bruce gained the attention OF
the audience with her first sentence
She said: The costume | wear,
making and all. cost $1.25. My re
form dress is so simply made that
any woman can make one. My idea
is that we women have one style of
dress that will always be recognized
as being in style, no matter how
many prevailing new styles there
may come in.
"The man with an income of 81 900
who is trying To dress his wife and
daughters as if he were worth $15,-
900 would be saved from an early
grave. In the poorer families think
what a relief it would he to have no
ruffIes to iron. Think how many
more girls would be able to attend
the university if such dress as this
were the style in Cincinnati

the university last year who wore n

in this, and 1t only deters deserving
girls from taking "A university course.

MAKES OIL COLORS SOLID.
French Artist Claims n Discovery
Which VIII RevolutiOnize the
Art of Painting.

j. j. Raffaeili, one OF the best
known of the genre painters among
living French artists, claims to have
made a discovery which, il it is all he
claims, will revolutionize oil paint
ing. AT reception chiefly to French
and foreign painters in his studio
at Paris, Raffaelli demonstrated his
discovery. He pointed out the dis
advantages of the pastel, as the color
falls off, loses its tone, and rarely
after a time regains its original
beauty and luster, even under glass.
Oils, too, he said, were used at a
disadvantage when the artist was
not working in his own studio.
There, when prepared, the colors be-
gin TO run on account of the oil with
which they are mixed. The palette
and brushes and accessories can be
cleaned, but when he is working on
landscape in the open, or taking por-
traits in the houses of sitters, these
details break the unity of thought
and the interruption is generally
perceptiole in the finished work.
After many years of experimenting
Raffaelli has now combined the ad-
vantages of the pastel and it's fine,
soft, velvet coloring with those of
the oil, to which time adds beauty.
The artist then showed a picture to
his guests and said:
81 have contrived to put oil colors
in small solid sticks like crayons,
which i rub against canvas, wood
and ivory paper. i have procured, as
you see, one of the most complex
pictures in color design. l shall re-
produce the principal parts of it be-
fore you as soon as it is quite dry,
which will be very soon. The picture
will be unalterable, without any of
those impediments which embarrass
painters"
A portion of the picture was then
reproduced, and it was impossible to
distinguish it from the original.

MILK IN POWDERED FORM.
Swedish Process That Is Likely to
lie of Economic Value at Home
and Abroad.

News of the Swedish discovery,
which is likely to be of Importance
in dairy farming, has come from Con-
sui Il. S. Beyh to the state depart
ment at Washington.
DR.. Max Ekenberg, of Gothenburg,
has invented an apparatus by which
milk can be reduced to powder, while
possessing all the qualities of milk In
concentrated form, except moisture.
This milk flour, moreover, is complete
ly soluble in water, and can be used for
all the purposes for which ordinary
milk is employed.
1t does not get sour, does not fer
ment, and in it's dry state is not SEN
sitive to changes in the weather. 1t
can be kept and transported in tin
cans, barrels or bags.
The cost of reduction, DR.. Ecken-
berg estimates at about 81 cents for
every JOG quarts, and he thinks that
the -four made from skim milk can be
sold for about 10 cents pound. No
rennet or acid, or I've is used in pro-
ducing it.
At a recent meeting Of the Swedish
academy of agriculture DR.. Ekenberg
exhibited samples of his milk flour, and
it was favorably commented on. In
an address to the academy he said tina
he believed his invention to be of the
greatest Importance for the utiliza-
ton of skim milk, hitherto largely
wasted, as in a dry form it could be
transported all over the country with
out losing any of it's original good
unn itips

TO BUILD SHIP IN NAVY YARD.
Battleship to lie Constructed by Cow
eminent Either at New York
or at Norfolk.

Either the navy yard at New York
or Norfolk, probably the former. will
be the site adopted for the construc-
ton of the battleship authorized by
the naval appropriation act, APP
proved the other day by the pres
ident. Boston is more of an equip
ment than shipbuiIding yard, and
League Island is not fitted to per-
form construction work. 1t is i'm
possible for n battleship To reach
Mare Island yard on account of the
lack of water in the channel leading
to Vallejo, where the yard is estab-
lished.
New York and Norfolk have the
best plants. Provided labor condi-
tions at New York are satisfactory
Secretary Moody probably will select
ii as the yard at which the battle
ship will be constructed. The other
battlcship and two armored cruisers
will be built by private shipbuilding
firms, unless the bids submitted
should be too high, in which case the
department will direct government
construction of all vessels.
The effect of this provision OF the
law will be, however, il is believed,
to cause contractors to make low
bids on the battleship, that compar-
isons can be made between it's cost
and that Of the one constructed by
the government. Rear Admiral
Bowles, chief constructor, believes
that the cost of the government
built vessels will be 26 per cent.
greater, or about s1.000,0O0 more,
than II built under contract.

Had Fight with sword Fish.

Among the fishing vessels that ar
rived at Boston the other day was
the schooner Forest Maid Capt. Sen
nett, with Al big swordtish in the
catch. These were the first fish OF
this species to come in this season
A. S. Scott, one of the crew, told a
startling story of the landing of one
of the fish. After it had been har,
pooned and seriously wounded, the
fish, which weighed 300 pounds, at
tackled the boat and plunged its sword
clear through the bottom. Being un'
able to extricate itself, the fish then
was easily killed and hauled on boart
the schooner.
