"LANNES PASSED FIRST

Some one having read at st.
Helena an account of the battle of
Lodi in which it was said that
Bonaparte displayed great courage
in crossing the bridge, and that
Lannes passed it after him, ''be-
fore me- cried Bonaparte, with
much warmth, ssLannes passed
first ana 1 only followed him. It
is necessary to correct that on the
spot" And the correction was &C.
cordingly made in the margin Of
the book.-Guizot's History of
the French Revolution
From this, one may imagine
what Napoleon would have said Of
miralSchley, had he been in
Admiral Simpsons place at San
tiago. It may also be connected
what Bonabarte would have SAID
had he been rendered the lions

"Captains' fight" as the 'shero Of
San Juan Hill,n who is now occupy

"Schley'' unquestlonably, 'passed
first'' with the Brooklyn. There
is another difference in the analo

At Lodi, Marshal Lannes passed

The Negro in New York.

The people of New York are be
coming alarmed about the increas-
ing negro population in their state
and the race wars which may oc-
cur in the future. Some of the
leading papers of that state have
already advanced theories by
which to solve the 'snegro pro-
blem." The New York Post says;
That to have the negro population
more equally divided over the
United States would settle the
question. That would be a good
idea. A good industrious negro,
can very easily get along in the
Southland, not only have the nee
cessaries Of life, but may accumu
late such wealth as he can earn
and save, at the same time remain
in his place as the inferior and
servant of the white man.
The best education a negro car
receive is that which will make
him know and keep his place, and
when a white man in any state il
the Union attempts to elevate thu
black higher than this, he does an
injury to the community wherein
he lives, he insults all white PEG
pie, and becomes himself the so
cial equal of the "nigger." If TIN
north will profit by the experience
the south has had they will saw
much trouble when tue Grace prob
lem" knocks at their door to b.
solved.
The punishment meted out to
negro must Of necessity be severe
as what is the most humiliatinI
punishment to a white offende
and will blacken his characte
through life, makes a hero Of th
negro who. is thus punished, in tn
eyes of his race.

A Pipe Line.

tt Is now an almost settled fact
that there will be a pipe line, to
pipe crude Oil from the Beaumont
and Jennings oil fields, (should
the latter develop sufficiently. J
This pipe line will pass very close
to if not through the incorporate
limits of New Iberia. While it is
the intention Of the company TO
J pipe the line direct to New Or
leans, it seems reasonable that
| they will stop the main pipe at
every city along the line and run
lateral pipes to, at least the mills
and factories who will use it fol
fuel.
Why then would it not be good
idea for New Iberia and other
cities, to form companies, to lay
mains and deliver this oil to re-
sidences and other consumers in
the same manner in which gas is
now delivered in the cities. This
would forever solve the fuel ques
ton, as all ready many people al
Beaumont and other Oil fields are
burning crude oil for lighting ano
heating purposes at tritling cost
The enterprising citizens Of New
Iberia should look into this matter
before some one else 'pulls TIT

Facts about Advertising.

There is no merchant who does
not believe in advertising Even
the one. who never has a line in the
paper believes in advertising, and
if you pass his store you will find
a large portion of his stock on the
sidewalk in front for the purpose
of attracting attention to the
wares he has for sale. Does this
advertising pay, yes; but it gives
a very small return for the labor
expended, compared with judici-
GUS newspaper advertising. 1t is
not infrequently that people will
stumble over these goods, on their
way to patronize newspaper ad-
vertiser who handles the same
class of goods. The reason of
this is very plain. The merchant
in his tad" gives printed guar.
antee, over his signature to sell
your certain goods at a certain
price on certain day, warranting
the articles you wish to purchase.
Thus is an advertisement a pro
faction IN tho nnrnh q Snr nc wpll as
a money-getter to the seller
The greatest merchants the
world has ever known are the ones
who have spent the most money
in advertising, thus proving con
clusively that the success of {
merchant is contracted or expand
ed by the amount and manner in
which he advertises.

Shocklngly Multilated.
st. Mar,lnsvllle Evangeline.

Monday the people of St. Mar
tlnvllle were shocked beyond ex-
preston and their condemnation was
Mt too severe for the wilful act of
vandalism that was committed in
cutting the limbs OF the Evangeline
oak. This grand old tree, the ride
of the town, and the admiration
of the strangers who visited this
place, was disfgured, mullllated,
for whatreason, we cannot say, but
the damaged done is unfortunate
aud canno. repaired, as this tree is
now dis6gured, ruined for ever.
1t becomes the duty of the coun-
Gil, and the grand jury will look in
to this matter of destroying public
property Of the character of this
Evangel,ne oak.
This oak stands on public pro-
petty that can only be controlled by
The town authorities, and had this
tree been cut even by the autbori-
ties It would have been considered
vandalism aud a crime, because a
tree that was looked upon with the
interest that this one was should
have been preserved with the great
est care and attention..
This place OF Evangeline should
have been attended to by the
authorities and should have been
made as pretty as possible, 1t Is
small and would not have cost much.
Strangers VIII, visit us cannot under
stand how we can allow this little
place in the condition it is, which
looks entirely abandoned, and which
we presume, was the cause of thu
cutting of the tree.
We trust that the authorities an(
the people of the town will see tina
what is left of the Evangel'ne oal
will be preserved and the place i'm
proved.
