Found after Four Years.

On one day last week DR.. S. w.
Pryor was surprised when a sos
gold watch was brought to him
which had been missing nearly four
years. Loomis Mcdowell, son of the
Rev. G. w. Mcdowell, colorod,
while catching ball near the color
cd Methodist church at the old
fair grounds made the find. The
ball went under the church and he
went after 1T. While under there
ne saw trowel, and giving it a
kick he heard something rattle.
Upon examination he found DR..
Pryor's $65 gold watch just like it
was when it went astray four years
ago, with DR.. Pryor's name on the
charm. The watch was brought to
the doctor and the boy was present
ed with $500 for finding and de-
livering it.
The watch was stolen from DIR.
Pryor's room nearly four years
ago. 1t was thought that it would
never be heard of again. AS there
was no clue as to the thief very little
effort was made to find it. That it
was found in such a place after so
long time is quite remarkable.
There seems to be mystery con.
nected with it. Someone evidently,
after stealing the watch, for fear
that he would be caught up with,
made this disposition of it. The
watch was in good order when
found.
Mr.. w. r. Nail says that a boy
who finds S65 gold watch and
turns it over to the owner is worthy
OF trust, so he has employed Loomis
to carry bundles. The boy is 13
years old. Chester Lantern.

BROuSSARD OPPOSES RECIPROCITY

Washington, May 29.-Repre
sentative Broussard spent consider
able time to-day before the senat,
committee on Cuban affairs. Hav
ing recently visited the island OF
Cuba. where he made some obser
vations as to the condition Of the
planters aud the holdings Of the
sugar trust, he made some inter.
esting statements. Mr.. Broussard
declared that the trust owned very
large proportion of the raw sugar,
and that, with few exceptions. all
of the sugar manufactured this
year has been hypothecated to men
who have loaned the planters
money. These men, he said,
would eventually control the out
put.
Mr.. Broussard also gave the com
mittee the substance of his speech
delivered against the Payne bill in
the house a few weeks ago, and re-
peated the arguments made before
the ways and means committee. He
showed that the Cubans themselves
would not benefit by the proposed
legislation, and that the cane sugar
interests of Louisiana would suffer
severely if Il 20 per cent. reduction
in the tariff was agreed to. AS
the representative comes from the
heart of the sugar cane territory,
he gave the committee some inter
estlug statements rs to that indus

The overture rendered by Mrs Foster
and Miss Whitworth was in good style and
finish and me, with the appreciation
of all. The pantomime Comm
thro' the Rye" was very realistic and
rendered with grace aud beauty by Miss
Mary McGowen. The essay by Miss
Steckler was a school prophecy. She
gave a brief history of the school during
the past three years and showed the won
derful growth aud development of the
High School of Jeanerette during that
time, spoke of the establishment Of the
High School by the Parish Board and of
its full recognition by the State Board,

fast to 1t forever. The Grafton was replete
with lofty educational sentiments and
well calculated to enthuse the graduates
with high ideals and ambitions for success
In life. The vocal duet by Mrs. Foster
and Mrs. Sehexnavder, was well received.
Supt. l.. o. Hacker, thed presented the
diplomas in his usual courtly, elegant
manner. On the whole. the occasion was
,ne Of keen enjoyment and long to be re-
and the thanks of the com
nunity are freely given to the efficient |
principal, Prof. A. j. Dupuy, whose un-
selfish services have contributed so much |
o the success just attained.
