--Evariste Franchebois, a highly
esteemed citizen Of Bellevue, died
at his home on Tuesday. "Uncle|
'Variste" was a good man and a
gallant soldier during the late war
between the States, and his death
came as a shock to his friends

a family Of several children, all
grown, and all splendid citizens.
He was Inferred in the Catholic
cemetery in Opelousas.
AS will be seen by the call, the
general examination Of teachers
ordered to take place next month,
has been postponed until further
notice. This action of the Board
was prompted by the fact that
many teachers are away from
home, and the examination would
therefore have been incomplete
and unsatisfactory. It Is believed
that the general examination will
be held about one week preceding
the opening of the school term.
However, the examination ordered
for the Goth and 21st will be held,
but will be confined to applicants
for certificates. See proceedings
and call i'm another column.
