In the hamlet towards which they

of the proximity of his deadly foe. was
sitting peacefully comforting with q
group of earnest men who had sent
for him that they might learn more

The conference ended, Eber arose to

Optimistic on Rice Situation.

Mr.. w. W. Duson, of Crowley.
who is probably more extensively
interested in all branches of the rice
business than any other man in Lou
isiana, regards the present situation
as very hopeful. He says:
The 1903 crop was carried over, the
bulk Of it being put in bonded ware
houses and carried over to the follow
ing year. But now nearly all the
1904 crop has been used up, as well
as the surplus carried over from 1903.
1t is generally conceded that all the
visible rice will have been sold by
July. The Louisiana and Texas crops
for 1905 will be very much shorter.
A considerable reduction of acreage is
being made in both of these States.
The years of 1903 and 1904 were
hard years for the rice growers.
When big crops were made the plant
ers did not receive proper prices; it
is now natural that the acreage should
be reduced.

Business Is Rushing.

Business in the State land office
is coming with rush these days,
and the Office force is kept busy with
the new turn of affairs. Following
the tender which was made a week
ago by a number of Louisiana capi-
talists for 100000 acres of the Nc
Emery script lands is tender made
TO State Register Crandell by Hon.
B. L. Kemp, of Tangipahoa parish,
for several thousand acres of lands
entered principally in Tangipahoa
parish during the year 1859. These
lands were entered by W. r. Adams
under the classification of sea marsh
lands at 1919 cents per acre, while
it is held by Mr.. Kemp that the
classification should have been as
swamp lands at IS cents per acre.
the price at that time for State
land. The tenders made BY Mr..
Kemp were declined by the State
register. The suit for the annul-
ment of these entries has already
been instituted in Tangipahoa by
District Attorney Robert Ellis on
behalf of the State, and as the lands
are now very valuable, the case will
be hard fought before final decis-
ion is reached. 1t is not known up
on what grounds the court will be
asked to set aside the entries, wheth-
er upon the grounds of fraud or
misconstruction of the law. which
are the only two grounds upon
which the contest can be made.

The old Greeks had = proverb ex-
pressing their belief that the mother
should be strong and vigorous In or.
der that the sons might be brave and
mighty In battle; accordingly. In the
palmiest days of Greece. laws existed
which required every woman to en-
gage in the practise OF gymnastics and
to give minute attention to all the re-
quirements OF hygienic laws. not that
she might be able to enter contests
in the arena or to fight battles In de-
tense Of her country. but that her
sons might be victorious In all the
conflicts Of life. In peace as well as In
war To be the mother Of sons who
were noted for strength. vigor and en-
durance was the highest honor any
Grecian woman could enjoy.

Babies are simply buds; hence they

That . large responsibility rests

starts out In good earnest to learn 10

sires that her sons and daughters
shall follow her In such laudable un'

ter the careful consideration which
will lead her to take her stand with

SPANKS BETTER THAN
SPRlNKLlNG, SAYS JUDGE
After Establishing Right to Turn Hose
on Boys Woman Proves
She Didn't Do II

Mrs Florence Fisher, who lives on
West Temple street, was arraigned in
Judge Chambers court yesterday
morning on charge of battery.
The cnarge sworn to by some of Mrs.
Fishers neighbors declared that she
had with malicious intent turned the
hose on some of the children of the
neighborhood and sprinkled them.
The testimony was spicy for time
and it developed that some of the
small boys of the .neighborhood had
been bothering Mrs. Fisher. had tram-
pied her flowers and had otherwise
disturbed her After time Mrs,
Fishers side of the case had clear
lead and Judge Chambers ruled that
she had perfect right to sprinkle the
boys in question, but suggested spank
ing as more effective method.
After establishing the fact that she
had a hsst TO turn the hose on the
boys Mrs. Fisher then proved by wit
nesses that she had not done It. and
her accusers were completely routed.

"PerniciouS Activity" Nightmare App

on the Day of His
Appointment

A. 3. Conrad has succeeded in ful
measure to the troubles of Oscar H
Nunnaley and there has been scarcely
time to shout, The king is dead! Long
live the king!" Yesterday the civi
service commission formally announced
that Nunnaley, former chief deputy in
the Office of the city assessor, had beer
dropped from the rolls for pernicious
activity in politics.
report from the examiner was
submitted and the name of A. B. Con
rad at present acting chief deputy in
the office of the city assessor, headed
the list. Conrad had taken the las'
examination held for the position and
succeeded in beating his nearest com
petitor out by a narrow margin
Closely following the announcement
of Conrad's success in passing the eX-
animation came the statement from
Secretary Spalding that charges OF
pernicious activity in politics had beea
filed against Conrad
Nunnaley is acting as the Nemesis
of his. successor in office Nunnaley 8
filed the charges with the commission
late Yesterday afternoon. and grimly
announced that there would not be
many witnesses.
Il have one man who will swear,
said Nunnasey, that Conrad asked
him to secure votes for Assessor Lewis
nomination. This man was delegate
to the convention that nominated
Lewis. AS doing politics is the only
charge | suppose the commission viii
not want much more evidence than
this"
The commission set the, trial of the
charges for the evening of March 13
at 7:30 O'clock. One of the commits
sioners said that it looked as f charges
and counter charges would continue to
be filed until the old employees of the
city would all be dismissed and they
would be replaced by real civil service
men.
