St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1902-03-01

The Clarion has no fears for the
welfare of the town, no matter
which ticket wins. They are all
good men-the question is, who
will make tlI6Tbest councilmen?
Do we want progressive, pushing
men, or do we want the contrary?
That is a question for the people to
decide on next Monday, and we
trust that all voters will ponder
well before casting their votes.
Opelousas is a good old town, and
We need good, young, enterprising
citizens to make it good up to
date little city.

Secretaries.

A very strong legal combination
was formed i'm our city ON June 1st,
1901, when Mr.. john n. Ogden as
sociated himself in partnership
with Mr.. Aug. A. Calongne, and
opening up their office at 606 Gra-
vier street. For years Mr.. Ogden,
who was born in New Orleans in
1847, has been a conspicuous figure
at the bar Of our State. He served
his country through the entire
Civil War until he was captured in
Vicksburg in 1864 by General
Grant, and he enlisted in New
Orleans when he was but boy.
Originally called to the Mississippi
bar In 1868, he was a year later ad-
mitted to practice at the bar OF
Louisiana, and In 1871, removing to
the town of Opelonsas, Parish of
st. Landry, practieed his profess
ion there for twenty-nine years, be-
ing elected district attorney for
that district in 1884, and reelected
in 1883, serving the Office with dis
tinction and credit. Mr.. Calongne
is a graduate of Tulane University
1900, and is a native Of our city.
Both gentlemen are well read in
all branches Of law and practice
before all the courts, Mr.. Ogden
holding high rank as a forceful
and eloquent counsel, while both
gentlemen are recognized as being
skilIfal and careful in the prepara
ton of their cases and of sterling
integrity. They already command
large city and country clientele
and occupy a prominent place at
the forum of New Orleans.-The
Daily States, 10th Feb. 1902.

First Photographs Portrait Posed

sA SENh
for by Miss Dorothy Catherine ORA
per Many Years Age
When Dorothy Catherine Draper.
who died at Hastings last week, posed
for the first Photographic portrait OF a
person, shortly after Daguerre's an
nouncement, in 1889. of his discovery OF
the action of sunlight on silver, her
face was busted with n fine white pow
der, that the impression might be the
clearer. The first Photographic por-
trait ever made is still in existence. 1t
is owned by Lord Herschel's heirs in
England. The photographer vas Miss
Diapers distinguished brother, John
w. Draper, who succeeded DR.. Valen-
tine Mott as president of New York
University's medical college. Miss
Draper lived 10 see the experiment in
which she took part develop into one OF
the most important arts. There have
been other men who have alleged that
they were first in applying Daguerre's
discovery to Photographic portraits,
but their claims were not well founded.
Miss Diapers picture and the date on
which II was made were long ago ac-
cepted as proof that to John Williams
Draper belonged this honor.-New York
