Louis Wagner, one of the
most influential citizens of the
Sinner precinct, was in the city
Wednesday to make his bond as
county commissioner. The same
was accepted, and it was known
that the reason he could not stay
longer was on account of the Sc
rious illness of his wife. Mr..
Wagner is very pleasant gen
tleman, and we predict for him a
very successful career as county
commissioner of Lavaca county.

The commissioners court this
week refused to grant the usual
allowances ranging from S. per
quarter to SIS per month to needy
persons who are not paupers, it
being the sense of the court that
all such persons as really need
relief should become inmates of
the county poor farm. where
there is still room for some TWEEN
ty paupers.. These allowances,
had, at first, been made on the
theory that it was cheaper to
provide for some of the needy
ones in this way than to place
them on the farm, but for some
time the demand for allowances
has been increasing to such an
extent as to lead to the belief
that in many cases the need
therefor was not so great as rep.
resented. -Halletsville New Era.

by Americans that bears his name, never had
his biography written until this week, when
compact little volume by Martin Basse, entitled
lie General Duphot, 1863 1891 was published
by Berger-Levrault. The story of the short life
of this soder-he was killed during riot at
Rome the day before his wedding, when only
twenty-seven years oId-reads like a romance.
When sixteen years old Duphot, who was a
native of Lyons, enlisted as a private in the
regiment of TaImandois and became sergeant
during the first campaign in Italy. He attained
higher grades in rapid succession, and Bona
parte made him brigadier general on the field of
battle in March, 1891. According to Stendhal,
Duphot's military talents were equal to those of
Massena Murat and Lannes. Bonaparte held
him in high esteem, and spoke of him as an
officer of remarkable intuition and of absolute
confidence"
AT Genoa, whittier he had been sent to re-
organize the local troops, he met Joseph Bona
parte and his young wife, and the Iatters sister,
the beautiful Desiree Clary, who was then
twenty years of age and who had been be
trothed 10 Napoleon in 1894 when he met her
at his brother Joseph's wedding. Bonaparte,
however, soon afterward met Josephine de Beau
harnais and the bewitching Creole made him
forget the sentimental Provencale. Desiree
CARY thought she would die Of grief when she
heard Of his infdelity, and wrote him a letter
saying: so you are going TO be married! No!
I can never accustom myself to such an idea. 1t

Life is a torture for me, now that can no
longer consecrate it to you Duphot when he
returned from Genoa, related to Bonaparte that
he had met Desiree Clary, and that he had fallen
in love with her. Shortly afterward Joseph
Bonaparte was dispatched by the Directory 10
Rome. as ambassador Of the French Republic.
He was accompanied by his wife and by Desiree
Clary Bonaparte asked Duphot if Desree Gary
shared his love, and when the young general re-
piled YES We have already solemnly exchanged
