fractured at the time Of the explosion at
the Wabash mine on the 14th ~ofJannary

Ernest Ledet, a colored insane
man who was held in the parish
Jail until he could be taken to the
Insane Asylum, was found dead
in his cell Sunday morning last.
1t appears that he was provided
with a small heater for him to
keep himself warm, and in some
unaccountable manner fell upon
the stove and was severely burned,
he was presumably in some un-
conscious fit. His body was taken
by his wife and children and bu-
ried by them.

cember 10th is the day of the spe-

The Bachelor Maids club, will
entertain tomorrow evening, some
of their boy friends, at their an
niversary dinner at the Fleming
hotel, and we presume they will
make some lectures to the boys on
Dictatorship" and prevail upon
the boys when they grow old and
put outside of the matrimonial
market, to call themselves "old
maids. Under the rules of the
new, or up-to-dste woman, the
slow man is taking a back seat,
and as the old maids of by-gone
days, are Bachelor Maids, the
bachelors, the real article, should
be classed ''old maids" and we
trust that the club tomorrow, will
fully discuss this important mat
ter.

1t Is Democratic Doctrine.

Again we see the Democrats,
aided by the Free Traders and
Tariff tinkers within the Republi-
can party, trying to overthrow the
Protective Tariff. They make the
attack indirectly by claiming that
they seek to kill the trusts by cut
ting off Protection from trust made
goods. Feeding Free Trade pri-
son to cure the trust evil" a.
Speaker Henderson says. That
Protection fosters trusts is Demo-
cratic doctrine, which is not borne
out by the facts, but which, never
theless, is being embraced by GER
tain Republicans, thus playing
into the hands of the Democrats.
They seek to feed the trusts Free
Trade poison, but the most of the
poison would get into the system
of American industry and make
the American workman sick or
kill him. The President says we
must be careful TO leave ample
Protection to the workingman and
see that industry receives no sud-
den jolts. He must know that
constant changes or threatened
changes in Tariff schedules will
frighten manufacturers and cause
them to curtail their product, thus
throwing the workman out of
job.
Free-Trade and Tariff tinkering
is Democratic doctrine and should
be left to the Democrats.-Port-

 Was Probably Killed.

Elizabeth. N. J.. March l7.-An attempt was made to kill the Rev. Mir. Houst. pastor of the German-Lutheran Church of this place last night.
 The police believe that the would-be as sassins were Italian anarchists. >Aftei the shooting of President Mckinley MT. Houst preached a. sermon in which he denounced the anarchists and declared they should be driven from the country. On November i2S last his son. Ivan. mys- teriously disappeared and the minister subsequently, received threatening iettcrs in which it was said that the boy was ir hell and that the father also would bs sent there,
 Some weeks ago his little daughter was met on the street by a young man who tried to entice her into a house. but she began to cry attracting the attention of passersby and the man took fright and hurried away ..et
 Last night Mir. Houst heard steps on the porch of his home and went out to investigate. As he did so he was knock ed down by blow on the head. While he was prostrate one of his assatlants kneeiedson his chest. threw a cloth over his face and showed it into his mouth as a gag, with one hand. while with the other he drove knife into the minister's chest, inficting a deep flesh wound. The wounded man was found by his wife and A physician was called. He found that the knife wound was slight, but that the blow on the head had caused serious in- fury. There is no clue to the assailants.
