LIQUOR LICENSE
INCREASED
Police Jury Makes Increase Of 1900
For Year 1907.

The Police jury of this parish
passed resolution at their session
last week making a horizontal in
crease of $500 upon all saloon IL
cenoes throughout the parish for the
ensuing Year This means that the
saloon license Of the parish vii range
from $1,000 for the saloon doing under
$4,000 worth of business up to $3.50
when the receipts are $3.50 or over,
being as follows on the various grades:
First class-When said gross an
nual receipts are $4,000 or less and
over SO, 900, the license shall be 81, $50.
Second class-When said gross an
nual receipts are $3.50 or less and
oyer $4,000, the license shall be S.
500.
Third class When said gross an
nual receipts are $4,000 or less and
over $1,000, the license shall be 81, $50,
Fourth cIass-When said gross an
nual receipts are $1,000 or less anG
more than $1,000, the license shall be
$1,000"
This is movement on the part of
the Honorable body of police jurors,
which should, and we believe will re-
ceive the hearty commentator of all
classes Of people. BY this move the
revenues of the parish will be in.
creased, and that too from source
which often fails to bear its Just pro-
portion Of the financial burden. This
tax will cut out large number of the
cheap dens and groggeries, where bad
whisky is dispensed in unlimited guam
titles TO the most depraved of both
races. By lessening the numbers of
these groggeries, which are the breed
ing places of crime and the rendez-

penses of the parish will be materially
leSsened. Itmeans more school hous-
es, better roads, better bridges and a
cleaner parish. Fewer criminals,
fewer inmates in our jails and small
er criminal expense.
Itmeans further that the major por-
ton of the saloons will now be con-
fined to towns and cities where there
is ample protection, and will thus be
kept under the strict eye of the law.
1t is interesting to note that Cal
casieu parish is notalone in hismove-
ment for higher license as more than
twenty parishes Of the state have in
creased their lisence during the past
three years. But the people of the

upon having police jury that sees t.

FRENCH M1n1rARH OFFICERS.

Many things are happening in France, as elsewhere. Hitherto the famous French military school of St. Cyr, near Versailles, has turned out between two and three hundred officers a year ever since it was founded. In the Franco German war it turned out two patches. Until recent years the competition for entry was increasingly severe. This year, however, the number of candi- dates has fallen off to the extent of about one-eighth Some persons ascribe this result to socialism, anarchy, or anti-militarism, but the more probable cause is thought to be the enforcement of the new military law substituting two years service for three. Under the old law, those who were clever and rich enough could enter the school at St. Cyr, go through the two years training as a cadet, serve few years as an of ficer, and retire. The military service as private was thus avoided, and the rich nobility got military titles into the bargain Now each cadet will have to serve one year as private before enter ing the school.
 It is not thought that the military quality of French officers will suffer on this account. If, indeed, the rich and aristocratic classes should abandon arms as a profession, the only result would be the formation of 8 body of officers more closely in sympathy with republican form of government.

4 STIR THAT IS NOT SURPRISING


 There is not little stir because an English tailor has been employed, for big pay, to come over here to add to the style of army uniforms. The an- |nouncement of this engagement of Brit ish assistance and skill is responsible for much feeling on the part of the American tailors especially those who make military and naval uniforms. They think it is, more or less, a reflec- ton on their business that the War de- partment goes to England and brings over a foreigner to give the soldiers dress the required srnartness, which is the dominating note of the foreign mfli- tary dress and is so lacking in the sol- dier clothes of this country. It is half expected by those who are watching some interesting developments in the case at the War department that some one may file complaint against the British tailor and so lead to his deten- tion by the immigration officials.
 It has been desired by the army quar- termasters for some time that the gov ernment cutters be trained to give a better shape to their suits of clothes, and that the uniform of the trooper be put in a more attractive form. This has led to the contract with the best known of the British military tailors to come over and impart his knowledge of how to do it to some of the employees who work on army clothing. But no wonder it hurts the feelings of tailors in this country. It will be interesting to see how the matter turns out. If the famous English tailor doesn't teach the making of better looking and better fit- ting clothes than many Englishmen wear our army will look funny.

JAMES oUIN.

The son of an Irish barrister, himself intended for the bar, lack of means and consciousness of ability sent Quin onto the stage. He made his first success in 1720, when he persuaded Christopher Rich to allow him to appear as Fal- staff in the Merry Wives of Windor." After Booths death he advanced still further in public esteem by what he modestly described on the playbill at his attempt" to follow that tragedian in his greatest part of Cato. He so de- lighted the audience by his attempt that after his delivery of the line, Thanks to the gods, my boy has done his duty!" they cried Booth outdone! Booth outdoneH and after he had spoken the then famous soIioquy on the immortality of the soul the enthus- jams reached siich pitch that in an- swer to a vociferous demand for an "encore," Quin was obliged to repeat the speech. From this night Quin, as an actor, reigned supreme for ten years; it was a solemn reign, dignified, weighty
 traditional He was unsurpassed in such characters as Falstaff and Sir John Brute, but in tragedy he did no more than uphold, with fine elocution
 ponderous majesty and rugged indep- endence, that solomn unreality of speech and action which, both in Eng land and France, was then considered the appropriate expression of tragic sentiment. As In France Le Kain was

then first to restore nature to tragic acting so did Garrick in England, by similar return to nature, expose the dulness, the lifelessness of the settled methods of the actors of the type of Quin. And Quin had too much good sense not to see it himself, for man he was the rather coarse embodiment of that rough but ready witted, pre-
 judiced but generous and warm hearted
 disposition which we admire and res- pect in Dr. Johnson. The few of Quin's sayings preserved to us almost make
 one regret that he had no Boswell by
 his side Lords and bishops, clergy and
 gentry, all were represented in the circles of Quin's many friends who de- lighted in his wit and conversation. He could hold his own in an argument
 with any man. One instance must suffice At some gathering Bishop Warburton, dictatorial and overbearing, was argu-
 in support of royal prerogative. Quin
 said he was a republican, and thought that perhaps even the execution of
 Charles by his subjects might be ] justified. Aye" asked the indignant Warburton, by what law?' By all
 the laws he had left them," answered
 Quin. The shocked Bishop then cited
 the wrath of the divine judgment as
 visited upon the regicides; they all, he

BURBANK ANTICIPATED.

John de Garlande grovely reckons netles. missiles and foxgloves among garden plants-only they are to be placed lat the side" Again, we may suppose that they were used as herbs, though it might be thought that nettles and thistles could be gathered at every step in those ages. Possibly they im- proved under cultivation. The resources of science then were even more remark able in some fields than now, Pliny gives some examples, Would you have white lilies flower purple? Dry the stalks in early autumn and hang them up in smoke. The little knots which we call bulbils will begin to swell in March. Steep them in lees of red wine and plant them out in trenches; when grown they will flower as you wish. But this is an insignificant achieve ment compared with the triumphs of fruit culture promised by Nicholas Rol- larde. MT, Luther Burbank is styled the 1 Wizard of Horticulture" in the United States, but some of his happiest sue cesses were forestalled by this monk of Westminster in the fifteenth cen tury. He told the public of his day how to grow cherries without stones and apples without cores, how to make our i sour fruits sweet and to give them what color you please. Early grapes are still so precious that no undertak- ing could be found perhaps more cer- tain to yield boundless wealth than the ] production of them, unforoed, in any European country suitable. But unless 1 Nicholas Bollarde was mistaken, it is very easy. Set a young vine beside g cherry tree. When it is well established bore hole through the tree at the height most convenient. Pass the vint through it and pare away all the barA of the portion actually in the hole, Ell
 up carefully to exclude the air. Wher that vine is old enough, it will fruit al
 the same time as the cherry. In this unbieving age gardeners will objec

COMMENCEMENT.

Commencement week began glorious ly yesterday. The sun was as bright as youthful hope and the grass and leaves were as green as a Freshman. If the week holds out as it has begun those who are here to have gay time will be able to have It without danger to their good clothes and good feeling. We hope 1t will, for it Is pleasant and appropriate to have a class go out in glow of sunshine and cheerfulness, Goodness knows that the glow fades too soon, and that life isn't perpetual ly pleasant Commencement week. But let us be happy while we may. Time enough to work seriously when the whistle blows.
 Mingled with the sorrow with which New Haven will part with the grave and potent seniors this week is a mild feel ing of relief that this parting brings | the promotion of the Freshman class, members of which have been quite dis turblng. There is also a hope that the next Freshman class will be inclined to be less disturbing than it's predecessor, or if not, that somebody or other will be more inclined to shake the devil and his works out of it, Let us believe that the new boys are going to be nice boys until we know better, and if we have to know better let us form a civic betterment association that will be able to cope with them.
