he was soon alright.
The different classrOOms have
been numbered, which is very
convenient to the new students,
as they are prone to lose them
selves in the labyrinth of rooms;
and stairways of our building.
Mrs. Baker remarked the
other day that the fence sadly
needed whitewashing; suppose
we send a com mittee of three to
DR.. Stephens and offer our ser
vices. The dormitory girls
would not mind it.
The tea given this afternoon
by the second year cooking girls
was quite success. Every one
seemed to enjoy himself i'm
mensely, and is very much in
debted to these kind young Ia
dies for the pleasant hour spent
in their company.
This evening the preliminary
debate was held. Of course we
all know that this debate is one
in which the societies are inter
ested; debate for the selection
of those who are to compete for
the Julian Mouton Medal.

Thursday night the Institute

doubtedly the best that has ever

which they were sprinkled
Every one was bright and gay
and expressed having enjoyed
the chocolate and cream, tea

this young class had prepared
for them.
The Attakapas may proudly
boast and say that it put up
four volunteers, to the Avatars'
two, to take part in the preli
minary debate.
No doubt it will prove a little
surprising to the friends Of the
dormitOry people to learn that
Mrs. Baker has been shipping
barrels of sweet potatoes to New
Orleans during the whole winter.
One hundred and fourteen bar
rels were gathered. Fourteen of
them paid for the painting Of the
dormitory staircases. These
sweet potatoes are fine, in fact
any of the dormitory girls will
tell you so, as they have them
every day for dinner, and should
the cook deprive them of their
dish of sweet potatoes, I fear
they would pine away and die.

Mr.. Vending came to US
Thursday night as we expected,
and delivered a splendid lecture
on Stonewan Jackson, the brav-
est of the brave, and South
erner; everyone enjoyed this
lecture extremely and left taking
with them some high and noble
thought. Why can't we have
more such lectures? The Ava
tars will give their aid in having
a large attendance.
The Rules Of Order Club met
this morning as usual and gave
US a very interesting program
especially pleasing was Miss
Dupre's talk on poetry This
was such splendid and instruc-
tive talk that we will never for
get it. Many faces were seen
to brighten as Miss Dupre spoke
of the many poets of whom they
had studied, and we were all
sorry when this interesting talk
came to an end.
All regret the absence of Mr..
Meriwether, who was obliged to
leave for New Orleans, to have
an operation performed on his
wrist. We trust that the in

and that he will be with US in
the near future.

A Remarkable Case.

One of the most remarkable
cases of a cold. deep-seated on
the lungs, causing pneumonia, is
that of Mrs. Gertrude E. Fen
ner, Marion, Ind, who was en-
tirely cured by the use of One
Minute Cough Cure. She says:
The coughing and straining so
weakened me that I run down in
weight from 148 to 90 pounds. I
tried number of remedies to no
avail until I used One Minute
Cough Cure. Four bottles of
this wonderful remedy cured
me entirely of the cough,
strengthened my lungs and re-
stored me to my normal weight,

The Attakapas Literary So
ciety held it's meeting as usual
last Saturday night. After the
business, so we'll conducted by
our worthy president, was over,
we proceeded with the literary
part of the program, the most
instructive number being a de-
bate: Resolved, that the Nj
caragua Canal should be oper-
ated by the United States. -
This question was thoroughly
discussed by four young gentle
men, who acquitted them selves
in a highly creditable manner.
The Society wishes to thank
Mr.. Mike Crouchet, who is an
honorary member, for delight
ing US with a fine recitation
skilfully delivered at our last
meeting.
The comical part of the pro-
gram was a tableau, represent
ing Booker Washington's recep-
ton at the White House.
AS only certain amount of
room is allowed me for part of
my journal, I cannot give all of
the numbers their deserving
credit.
We are very sorry that our
honorary member, Mr.. B.
Schmule will soon have to
send in his resignation to our
Society, as he is about to leave
for New York where he will at
tend college.
We wish him godspeed and
an abundance of success in his
studies, and we wish our young
friend always to consider him
self as having been member of
our Society, and that on his re-
turn he must once more enlist
on the roll of the Attakapas
Literary Society.

The Civic league should call the at

yards and also of church property, to
the badly kept appearance of these
places. Some of these yards are any

remedy is the matter of the ugly,
malodorous trash piles that ornament

the papers that litter our residence

grave lack of pride both personal
and civic. This is branch of work
