POSTPONED TILL
APRIL SESSION.
Police Jury Decided to Dsfsr
Action on Timber Estimate

At the adjourned session of the
police jury last week the PROPOSE
tion to have tic timbercd lands
of nc parish estimated by some
expert was postponed till the
April session. This is about as
it should be. but to settle the
matter the proposition should
have been tabled indefinitely.
There Is no probability of the
estimate being made as the ma
jority of the police jury oppose
the proposition. They see it as
. useless expense and can see no
benz efits to be derived from such
. course. There is no way to
make the Assessor accept an
estimate so made and should that
official refuse to accept it the
whole thing would turn out to be
something like $4,000 of the
public money thrown away. The
Sentinel has hoped all along that
the police jury would take q
common sense view of the matter
and set down on tho scheme, and
it still believes the majority Of
them will do it.

EXACT COST OF
PRIMARY.
Assessment was Too Much for
State Candidates.

New Orleans, Mar. 2.-Twenty-
two per cent of the original
assessments collected from the
State candidates for expenses in
the Democratic primary, Jan. 10.
Is being returned to them. The
checks are being mailed yesterday.
This means that the total cost of
the primary on the candidates
has been cut down considerably.
The total figures have not been
made up as yet, but will be in a
few days, SO they eau be given to
the public inteIligently.
With the return of this % per
cent of the first amounts paid in,
it can easily be figured out that
Democratic candidates nominated
in that primary paid 5.54 per cA.-
of the value of the Offices they
were running for. Some parishes
found that they did not need
quite all the money they had dc.
manded, xnd not until this cash
lis returned could Chairman
Kruttschnitt estimate just what
the cost was or how much surplus
there would be.

SILENT BRIDES OF KOREA.
Newly Made Husband May Not Hear
His Wife's Voice For Months
After His Marriage.

Here is picture brought from the
far east only short time ago which
shows exactly how the silent brides"
as those Of Korea are called with so
much reason. look on the wedding day.
1t may be said that although the robes
depicted therein remind one somewhat
OF japanese garments. the broad glrdIe
with its enormous knot at the back,
which Is formed on the island girls
kimona, is not part of the Korean
bellies decoration. while the sleeves
edged with deep white bands are much
larger than those worn across the
straits.
The headdress. a most important
part Of the quaint outfit. Is peculiar to
Korean brides. Made of heavy cloth
carefully quilted and stiffened with
sort Of canvas lining. II covers all ex-
cept a very little OF the hair and rises
about foot above the head. The
large wooden pins at the back hold
the headSear securely in place. the
ribbon falling over the left shoulder
being decorative only.
Dressed In this costume the young
woman who. since her parents have ar
ranged all her marriage affairs. per-
haps never has seen her future hus-
band. is led before the priest for a
ceremony which probably has no equal
for simplicity. At a word from the
priest the contracting persons bow to
each other slowly and solemnly and
all Is over. Then the bride goes home
to await further orders. while the hus-
band. gathering about him all his
