Court May Send Deputy to Make Ar

The County Court has been con-
sidering the matter of sending a
deputy sheriff to the Cheat river
bridge to arrest some parties who
have been seriously misusing it.
The offenders are chiefly summer
visitors from Pittsburg and other
points, who drive over the structure
at a 2:40 gait, which is a direct
violation of the law. Notices pro-
hibiting driving faster than a walk
have been posted, but no attention
is paid to them.

ADanger0us Character.

Monday stranger in'blue over
aIls struck town, and proceeded
to make his presence known by a
number of singular actions which
seemed to be more malicious than
otherwise. He met young Alton
Breaux on Buchanan street, whom
he struck ever the head with a
picket pulled from a nearby fence,
because Alton refused. as is said.
to give him package of tobacco
Several gentleman chased him. but
as he ran out into the middle OF
the big pond near there, he was
enabled to escape. He then made
his way out to Prof. LeRosen S
house. where he entered and rang
the bell. This was about $50 p.
m, finding no one at home, he
walked all around the house, and
attempted to force all the doors,
not succeeding. he. in spite picked
up number of bricks and threw
them into the windows, breaking
the glasses and doing injury inside.
DR.. Hopkins and Frank Hopkins
made after the fellow at once. He,
in turn, jumped the fence and
would have escaped, had not
Messrs. o. B Hopkins and John
Leblanc chased him in a buggy, to
the brick yard. Then they ran him
on foot up the railroad at the sect
ion house Mr.. Grider joincd the
pursuit and the fellow was captur-
ed. brought back as far as the oil

Memorial Exercises.

Monday afternoon memorial ex-
eroises were held at the Industrial
Institute in honor of DR.. J. L NJ
Curry, a distinguished Southern
statesmen, author, and educator,
who until the time of his deat},
was the agent Of the Peabody
Fund, which has done so much for
the cause OF education in the south
The large auditorium was we'll fl :
led with teachers and pupils OF the
public schools, and representative
citizens.
The exercises were opened with
Chopin Funeral March by Miss
Montgomery. after which Rev. C.
M Smith read an appropriatese-
lection from the scriptures and
then offered prayer. DR.. Stephens
then delivered an eloquent address
upon the lite of DR. Curry, paying
high tribute to his great intellect,
versatile talents, and noble heart.
In the course Of the address, DIR.
Stephens related a number OF p er
sonal "reminiscences of DIR. Curry,
which illustrated the admirable
qualities possessed by this noted
man. At the conclusion of the ad-
dress, the famous hymn, Lead
Kindly Light was sung and the
audience dismissed by Rev. Smith.

The Point at Issue.

The question before the people
Of Lafayette in the approaching
municipal election is not one Of
personal likes or dislikes, out the
point of issue is HOW MAY THE
PUBLIC WELFARE BE BEST SUB
SERVED.
It is fair question and sim
pie ore, and no personalities or
private grievances should be in
volved in its settlement but reason
alone ought to be allowed to con
troll, and in arriving at conclu-
ton honest difference Of opinion
should be respected by oppo-
nents. In considering the relative
merits of the two tickets seeking
public favor at this time the
Advertiser has frankly recognized
the strong claim mayor Caffery
and his colleagues have on the
confidence and good will Of the
entire community on account of
faithful and valued past services
in public and private life; but
in giving our endorsement to the
Gallery ticket we have not
intended to cast any reflection on
the nersonal Of the opposition
ticket. but by our action we SIM
ply mean to convey our conviction
that reform is not the question at
issue, and that inasm.ch as our
friends OF the opposition are not in
a position to offer the people any
thing better than they already
have in the way Of municipal gov
ernment, it would be both unwise
and inexpedient to make a change
Of management without any JUS
ti6cation.
An interesting meeting Of the
Woman's 5 Literary Club was held
at the home Of Mrs. I M. Blake.
Quotations appropriate to st. Va
F1tpti0e day were given at roll
cah. Mrs. Stephens read paper
on "Chita' and its author, Mrs.
+ E. Davis read selection from
Mrs. M. NJ. Davis writings and
Mrs. L-Rosen read sketches aef Ia
tharine Cole, Pearl RiveIsand
Dorathy Dix. The prog4m was
interspersed with musical ectlons
by Miss Mudd, Miss Montgomery
and Mrs. Blake. After adjourn
ment delicious refreshments were
served BY the charming hostess.

Southwestern L0uiSia.
ma Industrial
Institute.

The event that has called for the
most inte}est on the part Of the
students of the Institute during
this month has been the organiza-
ton of third literary society. The
movement was led in part by a
majority Of the Fourth Year class,
and seems to be very popular.
The faculty has welcomed the ap-
pearance of the new society in the
hope that d healthful rivalry in
matters literary will result in great,
er and more substantial benefit to
the students.
The preliminary contest for the
Julian Mouton medal, which is to
take place before a committee OF
the faculty viii; be held in the near
future. The successful competitors
in this contest will then be
permitted to compete for the
medal at the annual debate which
takes place during commencement
week in May.
The improvement of the institute
grounds has been Systematically
begun; a number Of orange trees
have been planted east of the dor
mitory, and other trees and plants
have been Set out in that part Of
the grounds set aside for the resi-
dence Of President Stephens.
The latest addition to the equip
ment of the Institute is the forge
shop. The installation of this
equipment has claimed a large
part Of Prof Woodson' S time di.-
ring the past month and now
stands as a credit to his de part
ment. The forges are twelve in
number; the blasts are supplied by
a blower run by machinery, and
the smoke is drawn out through
underground pipes, by means Of
an exhauster also run by mach!n-
cry. The forge shop is open to
classes on Mondays, Wednesdays
ana Friday, on which days the
public is invited to visit the de-
partment.
The inclement weather has in
terfered with the work of the base
ball team during the past two OF
three weeks; but now that several
challenges have. been received
practice will probably proceed in
spite OF the weather.
