into another stall, and then one of the passengers pulled out a pair of hand cuffs and told dad he might as we'll surrender because he was q Scotland Yard detective and had spotted dad as an American embezzler. and if he.drew that gun he had in his pocket there would be a dead Yankee in about four minutes Well. thought dad had nerve before. but he beat the band. right there He unbuttoned his over coat and put his finger on a grand army button in his buttonhole. and said
 Gentlemen, I am an American citi- zen. visiting the crowned heads of the old world. with credentials from the president of the United States. and day after tomorrow l have a date to meet your king. on official business that means much to the future peace of our respective countries.

let's talk of your home and my birth place. and forget that there is such a country as England
 Dad sat down on the porch, and went out on the lawn chasing peacocks and freeing guinea hens. and setting dogs on the swans, until a butler or duke or something took me by the col lar and shook me till my teeth got loose. and he took me back to the veranda and set me down on the bot tom step so hard my hair raised right up stiff, like a porcupine. Then I listened to dad and Astor talk about America. and I never saw a man who seemed to be so ashamed that he was brevet Englishman. as he did. He said he had so much money that 1t made his head ache to hear the inter- est accumulate. nights. when he couldn't sleep, and yet he had no more enjoyment than Dreyfus did on Devils island. He had automobiles that would fill our exposition building, horses and carriages by the score. but he never enjoyed a ride about London because only one person in ten thousand knew him with pity and contempt because he had renounced hIs country to get solid with the English aristocracy, and nobody would speak to him unless they wanted to borrow money, and if they did borrow money from him he was afraid they would pay 1t back, and make him trouble counting 1t. He told dad he wanted to get back into America, and become a citizen again of that grand old country of the stars and stripes, and asked dad how he could do 1t. for he said he had rather work in a slaughter house in America than be a, grand duke in England.
 T never saw dad look so sorry for a man as he did for Astor. and he told him the only way was to sell out his ranch in London and go back On an emigrant ship, take out his first pa- pers. vote the Democratic ticket and eventually become 6 citizen. Astor

 when I went back in the car dad was talking to the woman about her resembling a woman he used to know in the states. and he was just going to ask her how long she had been so beautiful. when the guard came to the side door and called the woman out

ATTACK ON A SCHOOL TEACHER
Caused the Imprisonment Of Four
Young Men at Singer Last Week
They We're Bound Over on Charge
of Assault to kill-Girl PHpiPs Pm
ishment Caused the Trouble,

Four Young men of Singer, James
Scott, Robert Slaydon, Gus Slaydon
and Joseph Rogers, were brought
down to the city today and placed in
the custody of Sheriff D. J. Reid to
answer to charge of assault with in
tent to kill upon V. Z. Simmons, teach
er of the school at Singer.
1t appears that Mr.. Simmons in
course of the discharge Of his duty felt
it incumbent upon him to administer
corporal punishment upon one of his
pupils, who is said to be a small sister
of the Slaydon boys. The story goes
that when the girl saw what was inev-
liable she started home, but was over
taken by the teacher and given cOrp0r-
al punishment. Mr.. Simmons, the
teacher, claims that be had tried every
other method of making the girl
amendable to discipline, but that ev-
erything else had failed and he was
obliged to proceed to the last eXtrem-
ity..
Last night, according to the story
told at the sheritf's office. Mr.. Sim
mons, the teacher, was at Tom Hyatt
store at Singer making purchases
He completed his purchases and start.
ed out of the door with his arms full
of bundles, when one person struck
him in the eye with his fist, another
made a pass at him with a knife, which
he lodged, and a third struck him ov.
err the head with scale weight. Sim.
mons lodged back into the store, thus
avoiding further punishment.
Sheriff Reid had number of tele-
phone messages from Singer strongly
depreciating the assault upon the
school teacher. and stated that feeling
there was such that two of the citizens
of the town were deputed to arrest
those who were alleged to be guilty OF
the assault. The young men above
mentioned were accordingly brought
to the city and a charge was lodged
against them of making an assault
with dangerous weapons, to wit: with
knives and scale weights, with intent
to kill. The bond was fixed at $500
each, and they were remanded to jail
in default thereof.-Lake Charles

Will Try to Find Oil.

Mr.. E. S. Wood, of FL Campo, Tex.
as, who owns a large tract of land at
and adjoining the oil field, Just west
of Welsh, arrived last week to look
after his interests here. Mr.. Wood
expects to farm obout $50 acres the
coming season and will drill for
oil on the balance. In the next sixty
days there will be a determined effort
made to find oil in paying quantities
on tract Of land which is located in
the proven field and owned by Mr..
Wood. Mr.. Wood stated in a con-
versation with Journal representa-
tive last Saturday, that he had inter-
ested some parties, who have money
enough behind them to thoroughly de-
yelope the field and who are confident
that oil will be found in large and
paying quantities, and who will spare
no time and expense in their efforts.
They expect to have well started by
the first of the year and will employ
only competent and reliable drlllers
and will put down several wells as fast
as possible Mr.. Wood says that if
oil is not found on his own land, they
will try and find it on other lands adj
joining, as he is sure it is there and
hopes to be the lucky man in locating
same.

Mermentau Dam Meeting at Jennings.


On the 18th inst. there will be held
at Jennings meeting for the purpose
of properly adjusting all matters per-
tanning to the rebuilding of the Mer-
mentau dam. This is one of the most
serious questions that has been before
the people of the rice belt for some
time, and immediate action is neces-
sary in order to protect next wears
rice crop. Both sides of the question
will be thoroughly discussed, and let
us hope that there will be an agree
ment arrived at which will be entirely
satisfactory to all parties interested
The Lake Arthur Herald comments in
part as follows:
SIT is up to those in charge of the
Mermentau dam proposition to devise
some means whereby the excess of
water may be rapidly drawn off so as
not to become menace to the pros
perity of the people of that section.
There are civil engineers in the count
ry who have made a study of such
problems and who could no doubt pre-
sent some valuable information on
this vexatious question and relieve
the existing strained condition OF af-
fairs"
