Col. Wilkinson
at Vaudeville.
at the Most Sue
cessful Gathering He
Has Had i'm the
Parish.

Abc speaking OL NOI. w HklDsOT
at Vaudeville last Saturday Sept.
%, was one of the most successful
he has had in ST. Tammany parish.
He was met at the afternoon train
by q committee of some of Mande,
ville's best citizens, and the Man"
deviIle Brass Band joined in the
enthusiasm with which he was
greeted as he stepped from the
train and was escorted to the
hotel.
At the knights of PYthras Hall,
where the speaking took place, the
meeting was presided over bv

Borey made a short address vel
coming Col. Wllkinscn to Mande.
vile, and boutonnlere was pinned
to the lapel of his coat by Mrs. E.
J. Delagrlve.
MIR. j. G. Flynn, of New Or
leans, was the first speaker. He
said the important issues IN the
campaign were the reduction of
taxes, consolidation of tax Offices
in the city of New Orleans, and
the fiscal agencies, and declared
that Col. Wilkinson's stand was
manly and straightforward on
these questions.
Col. Wilkinson was next intro
duced and was warmly greeted.
As he atepped forward he wee
presented with 0 beautiful bouquet
by Miss Ruby Duhourg, from the
ladies of Vaudeville, which he
gracefully accepted in few ap-
proprlate words.
He said that Notwithstanding
Mr.. Sanders, claim as to St. Tam
many parish, that the reception
accorded him was convincing that
there were some Wilkinson sup.
porters IN Mandeyllle. He ex-
pressed a desire to be judged by
his past record and his service TO
the party; that he favored re-
ducllon of the taxes, and that there
should be shrink9ge in the fees
received by Stateg officers. The
public dept, be said, was not now
matter for consideration. Tax
Colleetors should be compelled TO
make daily deposits and accounts
subjected TO frequent examination,
and that the Tax Collectors Of
ces should be consolidated in New
Orleans; that a constitutional
amendment carrying this into eff.
feet would undoubtedly be favora-
bly, voted by the people. He be-
lieved that State funds Deposited
should receive a fair rate of inter.
eat, and that State Tax Collectors
should be allowed a small commits
sion for collecting school tax.
That he was in favor of good
schools and good roads.
MIR. Simms closed the meeting
with a few remarks touching upon
his reasons for giving up lucra-
tive position IN order to manage
Col. Wilklnson's campaign, and
stated that 1t was solely through a
sense of duty.

COMMITTEE MEETS.
Everything Falls i'm the
Lap OF the Sanders
People.
Out of Sixty-nine Fifty
two We're Lined Up
for Sanders.

|
Following the meeting of th'
Democratic State Central Commit
tee Tuesday statements were ISSUED
from both the Sanders and Wllkin
son headquarters, General Estopl-
nal speaking for Lieut.. Gov. San
ders and Mr.. Simms representing
Col. Wilkinson. Said Gen. Es,
topinal:
"The meeting of The Democratic
State Central Committee, held to
day, developed the remarkable
fact that of the sixty nine mem
bers present there were hardly a
dozen opposed TO the candidacy of
Mr.. Sanders. There were present
and participated in the preliminary
conference at the Sanders head
quearters Monday night fiftY-two
members of the committee, either
in person or by proxy, and the
several other arrivals this morning
only augmented Gov. Sanders
following on the Committee.
"The program as mapped out
at our conference Monday night
was carried out 70 the letter at the
meeting of the Committee to-day.
This morning the Committee, con-
sisting of myself, Governor Heard,
Capt. Fitzpatrick, Mayor Behr-
man and Mr.. Berke, together with
MIR. Wilson, of CatahouIa and Mr..
Henrlques, of Orleans, met at the
Sanders headquarters and prepared
the resolutions which were pre-
sented by US to the State Central
Committee to-day and adopted.
The opposition on the Committee
to the candidacy of Mr.. Sanders
was so small that no attempt was
made to defeat the program as
mapped out. In the election of
Mr.. Mcclellan as Vice Chairman
of the Committee, one of the most
enthusiastic Sanders men in the
State was selected for that impor-
tant position, which csrrles with it
the craftsmanship Of the Executive
Committee of the Democratic State
Central Committee.
While of course we have known
for the past month that majority
of the Democratic State Central
Committee favored the candidacy
of Mr.. Sanders, we were hardly
prepared 10 find the majority as
overwhelming as 1t developed to-
day. The gentlemen presenting
the various parishes who visited
our headquarters brought 10 every
instance splendid news from their
respective localities.
"From information gathered by
personal talks and interviews with
the members of the State Central
Committee and other prominent
men from the country who have
visited our headquarters IN the
past twenty-four hours, it looks
like landslide for Sanders.
The Democratic State primary
election, for the nomination OF
State, paroehial and ward officials,
will be held Tuesday, January 28.
In case of second primary it will
be held four weeks later.
All parish committees must meet
within twenty days, or before Oct.
81, and ten days after their meet
ing all candidates must have de-
clared their Intentions and filed
their declarations OF can 1idacy.
Secretary Landry read the call
for this meeting.
Gen. Estopinal offered the fol-
lowing resolution:
BE 1t resolved, That the Demo
cratic primary election to nomi-
nate candidates for the Offices of
Governor, Lieutenant Governor,
Secretary of State, Auditor of
Public Accounts, Treasurer, At.

Perhaps the most northerly gold
fields in the world are those in Lap
land, where the River Ivaio seems to
be the center of an auriferous region,
where gold dredging operations have
been carried on for some time. Dig.
gings to the depth of 300 feet have
been completed with view Of finding
out the real course of the ore. The
gold discovered last year by com
pany, founded in the United States,
amounted to only four pounds, valued
at $1,5e0. This was found along part
of the Ivalo river, and the largest mug
get weighed about 1913 grains. There
are three companies digging gold there
now, the latest being the Ivalo com
pany, organized in the United States.
Within the possessions Of this com
pany lies Kultala, which was built in
1871 by the Finnish government for
washing gold.

BUTTER BY THE YARD,
Dairy Product Is So Sold in City Of
Cambridge, England.

In Cambridge, England, butter is
sold by the yard. For generations it
has been the practice of Cambridge
shire dairy folk to roll their butter
into lengths, each length measuring a
yard and weighing a pound. Deity
wrapped in strips of clean white cloth,
the cylindrical rolls are packed in
long, narrow baskets made for the pur-
pose, and thus conveyed to market.
The butter women who, in white linen
aprons and sleeves, preside over the
stalls in the market have no need OF
weights or scales for dispensing their
wares. Constant practice and expert
enced eyes enable them with a stroke
of the knife to divide yard OF but
ter into halves or quarters with al
most mathematical exactness.
The university people are the chief
buyers of this curiously shaped pro-
duct. In addition to being famed for
it's purity and sweetness, Cambridge
yard butter" is eminently adapted for
being served to the students in the
daily commons. Cut in conveniently
sized pieces and accompanied by a
loaf of the best wheat bread stated
portion is sent round every morning to
the rooms of the undergraduates for
use at breakfast and tea.-The Sun

Music Won MoItke Loved.

Arthur NJ Abel in his sympathetic
memorial article on Joachim tells the
following interesting story Of Won
Moltke and the great violinist. A more
ardent lover of music than Helmuth
Won Moltke never lived. He was an in
innate friend of Joachim, and the
great violinist was frequent guest
at his house. When the two illustri-
Gus men were quite alone Joachim
would take his violin and play SpOhr
adagios for hours-for Moltke would
hear nothing else on such occasions.
Once, Joachim, after having played
Spohr to him for two hours, said:
wouldn't you like to hear couple
Of Hungarian dances for a changer"
mo-" replied Won Moltke, Il prefer
Spohr adagios; If you don't tire of
playing them, never tire of hearing
them" So the violinist kept on with
SDohr until far into the night.

Paqanlnl,s Violin.

The famous violin of Paganini,

has been found to be rotting, and
1t is certain that the wood will not

instrument. 1t has been decided
that to keep it few years longer
it shall be taken out once a year
and played on for an hour by the
best pupil of the conservatoire.
Only once since the death of the
greatest violinist who ever lived has
