According to reports that

phone today the Breaux Bridge
people are sorry now that they
did not vote for the tax for the
"Evangellne road. 1t appears
that they had imagined that the
road would pass through Breaux
Bridge whether or not they
voted the tax. Since they have
learned that it will not touch
that village but will pass two
miles away they are anxious to
have the line.

be held tomorrow is reported to
nave been besieged by Breaux
bridge people asking for the
road, but it is stated that his
reply has been that Breaux
Bridge could not get the line
now except by paying the differ
ehce IN the cost of construction
between the straight line and
enat which would diAert to the
VIVA or at least $4,000.
he chances are that the present
breaux Bridge will not be on
the map of the "Evangeline"
road when completed.

streets, the hill tops and from
the banks of the Bayou. In
fact everywhere there was any,

Hankins is violently insane, and
was interdicted in st. Martinville
few weeks ago, but was left in
charge of his family at Breaux
Bridge until he could be sent to the
asylum. He escaped and was
caught in the act of placing OBJ
structions on the railroad track
early this morning. He tried to
set fire to the Broussard and Parish
Jails. Hankins labors under the
deiusion that the railroad owes
him $50, 900, and he is trying to
enforce payments. The authorities
of st. Martin have been notified
aud the unfortunate will be return
ed aud kept in confinement here
after. He is native of Iberia
Parish.

If the rage for automobile:

striking need here for garage,
1t is only a few days since one
carload OF the machines arrived
here and it is stated that another
carload is due here IN less than
two weeks.
DR.. ]. w. K. Shaw is respon-
sible for the sudden popularity
of the handy touring cars that
are now to be seen flying about
the streets. He discovered a
make that was not only neat,
durable and powerful but rea
sonable as to price and for
those who have business that
calls them out good deal it is
conceded that the autos that are
here are better than the horses.
Yesterday Sheriff Henderson
was flying about in the auto OF
MIR. Porteus Burke and today
he states that the machine is
"great." DR.. Shaw is using
one of the new machines HIM

japanese physicians declare it is
impossible for internal poisoning to
occur if powdered charcoal be
swallowed rs soon as the CASTRO
intestinal disturbance is felt.
French physicians have tested the
the power of charcoal, and proved
that it is the most active OF all
known antidotes. The charcoal
must be taken as soon as the poison
taken begins to show its effect, and
the doses must be large. Charcoal
is in no way injurious, and as
much as a soup spoonful may be
taken in divided doses mixed in
water.

around, no better no worse

like others, is undergoing the
inevitable wear and tear O

reign supreme in the old home
of Resale Hebert. No one is

where by her. Never harsh
word appears to escape heI
mouth, no loss of temper, ne
tendency to irritation or ever
unruly turns, nothing but quiet
kind dispositions though child
lish they be, as says the wit,
nesses.
CHOW, under these circum-
stances and toward the close Of
this long life of struggles and
usefulness, a petition is pre-
scented here, not by her children,
let it be said, alleging the insan
ity of Resale Hebert, urging
the necessity of her Introduction,
and praying that this court SO
decree.
Judge Simon concludes.
"Detendant is 90 years old.
Under the infexible laws of ma
ture, her body and her mind are
surely weakening and are surely
weaking and gradually perishlng.
Neither is yet dead. They are
both dying a natural death.
No sudden shock. No unex-
pected commotion. Nothing
unusual is causing it. On the
contrary it is coming on as
natural consequence. 1t is, the
doctors say, dotage, senllity,
and now comes the question,
can this be the imbecility for
which the law has provided?
"This state of dotage, at de-
PENDANTS advanced age, is the
unmlstakable SYMPTOM and the
usual precursor of approaching
final dissolution. 1t is the ira
dltlonal last stage of the last
sickness. And, at that mo-
ment, and under the circum-
stances, in my OPT ZION, the time
is i'll chosen, to demand a SEN
tence which can serve no hu-
man purpose, which can be of
no real benefit to any one, and
which must ever remain an IN
deserved stain on the crowni z
years of long and merltorious
life, a stain too, placed there at
a time when her grave lies wide
open at her feet and when she
IS about ready to tumble over
INTO it.
"Ihis court sees no actual
necessity for such a measure.
Plaintiffs demand is therefore
-ejected."

These are the figures for the
elections in aid OF the New Ibe-
ria, St. Martin and Northern
Railroad in the two wards of
this Parish Wednesday and the
railroad will be built there. As
stated in yesterdays paper there
was no decided opposition to
the road and the votes cast
against the proposition were
those of property owners who
did not think they would be
benefited by the railroad.
At Breaux Bridge the propo-
sition to run the railroad through
that little village was defeated.
The people there declared that
they were opposed to another
line OF railroad and it will not
go there if the present intentions
of the road are carried out.
One Of the officials of the road
said today that the road was
well satisfied and not surprised
at the result there. If the vote
had carried the line would have
had to be longer by several
miles to touch Breaux Bridge.
Since that village is opposed to
railroads the line will not devil
ate from straight route but
will pass Breaux Bridge by and
thereby make the distance be-
tween this City and Port Barre
shorter and the time less to the
Northern markets.
1t was phophesied today that
after the road is running there
will build up at point opposite
Breaux Bridge rival town that
may perhaps make the present
village back number. On the
other hand those who were OPP
posed to the railroad admitted
Yesterday that they would have
liked the line but they did not
care to pay the price to induce
it to deviate from its straight
path. The railroad authorities
are of the opinion that the
mistake will be seen after the
line is built and it is too late to
become even a way station on it.
In St. Martinville, where the
election is to be held to-day,
It is said that the vote will be as
adorable as it has been in every $
place except Breanx Bridge.
The people there are progress {
i've and will not miss a chance /
o get into touch with all the c
Dads that come that way. t

AN INTERESTING DECISION.

Judge Simon Friday rendered
an interesting decision in a case
where it was sought to have an
aged woman, now in her do,age,
declared insane. As stated by
the Court the petition was not
filed by her children but by
others and their prayer is denied
The title Of the case is "Ihe
/ Introduction of Roaslie Hebert,
widow Onezine Bernard" and
the petitioners were Leon Lion
and Jackson Lei uene. Judge
Simon's decision runs as fol
lows:
81 deem it useless to recite at
length the facts elected in this
case, but taking the substance
OF the evidence it appears that
not quite a century, but about
go years ago, Resale Hebert
was born in this Parish which
was at that time part OF St.
Martinville Parish, Louisiana.
Her parents were of that class
of sturdy and laborious people
that destiny usually marks and
selects as good tillers of the
bountiful soil, and whose condi-
ton in life, though rarely sur
sounded with the apparels of
wealth and education, offers no
greater attraction that unrelent-
ing devotion to family and un-
firing courage to labor.
"When age had brought her
to womanhood and urged the
choice of a companion to start
on the journey Of lite, Resale
Hebert was married to Onezine
Bernard and together, during
more than fifty years, they la
bored and advanced until he
fell off the way and she was left
the surviving widow and the
of five children, born OF
their marriage.
"The property belonging to
this community of assets and
gains consists of a tract of land,
the old home place where she
still resides, and of an undivid-
ed interest in some 26 acres of
swamp land valued together at
$1,000.
CATER the death of her bus
band, Resale Hebert continued
n the possession and enjoyment
Of this property as owner of the
one halt and usutructuary OF the
other; managed and attended to
until some II or ID years
lgo, she placed the manage
nent OF it, for her account, in
he care of her son, Aristide
Hebert, who so acted as her
gent until January A. d. 1901,
when, as he says, he advised
Ter that, unless a written power
If attorney was made by her to
lin, he would not continue to
ttend to her property.
"She readily acquiesced and
,ranted the required power and

gents management continuing

from any source.
