The Definition Of White Liuht.

Herr Plank defines white light as
follows: First, by the distribution of
the energy in different regions of the
spectrum; secondly, by the law that
within each small spectral region.
within which the energy may be CON-
sidered as uniformly distributed, the
energies squares of the amp1ftudesg
and the phases of the simply periodic.
partial vibrations are distributed in an
absolutely irregular fashion-"frregu-
lar" being taken in the sense in which
it is used in the probability calculus
If we extend the second law to the en-
tire spectrum the distribution OF en-
ergy throughout the spectrum can be-
calculated, and the resultant energies
agree with the energies actually meas
ured in experiments on normal white
light.

levee is not built ON the West side of
the river as we'll as on the East side.
That is impossible, for this reason
There are two gaps on this, the West
side of the River where there are no
Levee Districts.
The Red River Atchafalaya and
Bayou Boeuf Levee District extends
down to the junction of Bayou COurta
bleaux and the Atchafalaya River,
which is in the South Eastern part of
st. Landry Parish From this point
down to the junction of the little Ala
bama River and the Atchafalaya a
distance Of about seven miles there is
no district on the West side of the At
chafalaya. At this latter point the
Atchafalaya Basin Levee District
leaves the River and goes directly
West along the boundary line between
st. Martin and st. Landry Parishes
down to Arnaudville when it runs
South and follows the East bank of
Bayou Teche till the latter stream
joins the Atchafalaya. 1t then cross
es the Atchafalaya a second time and
runs Oh the east bank of said river
of the Atchafalaya, from the mouth
of the Teche to the Atchafalaya,
there is no district. This distance
of about nineteen and one-half miles.
There is no possibility of building
levees in these two gaps unless new
levee district is formed, or the gaps
entered in an old district.
If the Levee District Boards West of
the Atchafalaya were to build levees
within limits and leave out the gaps,
it would be q waste of money and val
liable time, for the enormous volume
of water which must necessarily find
and outlet will rush through those
two gaps with greater force than does
the water in Mississippi break and
we would, all be swept away i'll like
manner.
Now to come to conclusion. The
people West of the Atchafalaya cannot
protect themselves, and it is unjust
for those ON the East side to protect
themselves when by SO doing they
completely overflow us.
According to me, something must
be done soon or else when the water
begins to rise the people OF the Valley
of the Teche will go in force and cut
the levees Oh the East side i'll order to
protect themselves. G.. +. MARTIN,

THE LOUISIANA GAME LAW.

ing the killing of song birds, and
other birds This society also offers

Any person killing or having i'll
possession those birds during the
closed season and found with them is
liable to prosecution. This interest
taken in the matter by this humane
society will be of much value.
The open season during which time
the killing of the birds is permissible,
are:

COMPRESSED WISDOM.

There is deal of compressed wis
dom i'll the following which we find
III the Minneapolis Tribune:
The news that the preSbytcry of
Philadelphia has attacked Booker I.
Washington and his industrial me-
thodS is equally discouraging whether
the prcsbytery is white or colored. Il
fact not made plain III the dispatches.
1t is natural that professional negro
politicians should attack system
which make the welfare of the ne
gro depend upon sober industry and in
dependent labor rather than upon poll
teal activity. Negroes i'll the other
professions, especially that of law.
are so generally mixed up with poll
tics, through their pretenSionS to race
leadership on account of their super
ior education, that they are subject
to the same misleading Influences.
But it is vastly unfortunate that the
negro preachers, who should be wisest
leaders and advisers of their races,
should encourage the error that educa-
tion of the negro race for independ
cnt sci support and social usefulness
tends to make it a seryilc class. 1t is
more than ever unfortunate if this er-
ror is encouraged by white religious
bodies, or taught by them i'll their
missions. The best mission for the
negro, as for the white man, is the
mission of honest labor for living. -
1t is pity that there are not more
papers published in the North with as
clear a conception of what is best for
the negro as the Tribune manifests in
the above. Once convinced that his
salvation can not be worked out
through political activity the black
man of the South will become a desir-
able and useful citizen Rid of the
notion that success and happiness are
to be attained otherwise than through
honest toll he will find it easy enough
to bear the too often exaggerated dis
abilities to which his color and racial
characteristics condemn him. Most of
the mischief made by those who insist
upon settling the race question at long
range grows out of thinly veiled de-
sire to suspend an immutable law of
nature in favor of the negro. As a
rule professional negrophiles proceed
upon the hypothesis that it is wrong
to expect the object of their solicitude
to earn his living by the sweat of his
brow as his white neighbOr does
That the negro is afforded unlimited
opportunities of caring honest dollars
in the South is not enough for them.
That he can no more prosper without
work among us than white man can
worries them no little.
Fortunately for the South-fortu-
nately for the country at large-in-
dustry is in too high favor with the
masses of the people to admit of the
race problem being solved upon any
other principle than that of giving
the negro the widest field for the eX-
ercise of his ability to earn q living,
or more if he can, while at the same
time affording him the amplest prOtec-
ton in the possession of. the fruits of
his labor. Houston Post
