DAVID APPEALED
TO ORDINARY MAN
Personal Magnetism, Says
DR.. Mackay, Wen Him
Close Friendships.

Speaking on the life of David. the Rev.
DR.. John r. Mackay. of New York city.
who occupied the pulpit at the New
York Avenue Presbyterian Church this
morning, declared that the quality
which men call personality or personal
magnetism is nothing more than the
power OF making good; of having lofty
ambitions. and achieving them
In this respect, he said, David was
pre-eminent His ambitions were or the
most lofty kind, and he made good in
every particular. The consequence is.
he declared, David is a hero everywhere.
His nationality forgotten. and men re-
gard him simply as a man.
David was able to accomplish what he
did because he was intensely human, ="
said DR.. Msckay. He did the things
which appealed to the ordinary man
and won his friendship and love. The
little incident where three men broke
through the enemies lines and risked
their lives a hundred times to bring
back a cup OF water for which David
longed was used as an example 70 show
the love and respect accorded David by
his soldiers. Then. when he had the
water and realized what it had cost the
three men. he poured it out on the
ground as an Offering 70 God that he
had won such friendship as that. Acts
like that win the love Of ones fellows,
and the Immortality for which men
yearn.''
DR.. Wallace Radcliffe. pastor of the
New York Avenue Presbyterian Church.

to let forethought be the guiding in

the services this morning
There is no time when one comes

an honest one. Many questions 10 not
demand an answer. but when there is
sincere trouble and we rCverently ap-
proach God. and resOlutely take a stand
10 await for an answer, by that very
act we come into closer relationship
with Him

be some little speech making and music,
but there will be no public function.
Since his boyhood Father Dewitt has
been a bookworm. He is one of the
deepest students in the order, and has
devoted his life to the acquiring and
dissemination of knowledge. He was
the first to graduate from the seven
years course at Woodstock College. so
valuable have been his services in this
connection, that he has never held
pastorate, but has made teaching his
LIES work He was never known TO be
anything but quiet, sympathetic. and
kindly. Father Scanlon, VINO is one
year his senior. and who has been
lifelong friend (the two men took their
vows together), said in describing Faith

in his life. You don't find much anec-

his life to study In my opinion his
greatest attainment Is the good he has
accomplished. and his devotion 10 HIS

Rice Making a Fine Showing.

Despite the fact that this season has
had it's full share of drawbacks, in
Guiding a cold, late spring and a
long dry period, yet the rice crop in
this section of the parish, is in splen-
did condition, aud at the present time
gives promise to be one of the best
since the industry began.
The acreage in this section will be
no larger, if as large, as it was last
year, as much old land is laying out
this year. This, of course, is counter
balanced by a large amount of new
land that is beng opened up.
Planters are practically all through
seeding, although there are a few in
stances where they have a few acres to
plant or little to re-seed.
Many of the planters have their en-
tire crop flooded and are now pump
ing only to keep up evaporation.
The water level in the wells through
out the country, seems to be lower
than usual, owing to the limited
amount of spring rains that have fall
en- this year, yet with the amount OF
the crop that is already flooded, there
is little reason to anticipate water
shortage. A fine slow rain fell during
most of the afternoon Monday, that
was of much value to the growing
crop, although not as much fell lbs
was needed.
; We would warn the Peters street
prophet that "t!Ieres n;.ny slti
'twixt the cup and the lip" and the
present good crop showing is moi
sufficient ground to warrant the pub

WHAT CONSTITUTES lNTOxIChNTS.
As Defined BY Judge OyertOn to the
Grand Jury.

While the scientists of the country
are racking their brains as to what
is "whiskey," Judge OVerton has de-
fined the matter to the grand jury, SO
far as their Investigations of the mat
ter goes, in determining as to infringe
ments of the prohibitory law. In
brief he comes to the conclusion that
an intoxicant is anything that intOxi-
Gates. The following Is his charge on
the subject to the grand jury:
"What constitutes an otfense against
the prohibition law is the retail of
spirituous or intoxicating liquors,
save and except upon bona tide
prescription, given by duly licensed
physician and filled by an authorized
druggist. 1t makes no difference un-
der what name the liquor may be sold
The true test, whether the liquor when
sold as beverage makes the sale d
violation of the law, is whether it is
in fact Intoxicating. 1t matters not
what quantity Of it may be necessary
to produce intoxication, yet it is d
violation of the law if the humah
stomach can hold enough of it to bro
duce that effect. You may even find
instances where certain beverages as
manufactured and sold by the manu-
facturer, are not Intoxicating, but
that they have become SO by reason
of the fact that the retailer has added
alcoholic liquor to them, selling them
under the name the manufacturer has
given them and thus masking the VIC.
lation of the law.
LAS part of the law in support OF
prohibition, | also call your atten-
ton to the fact that it is in violation
of the law for any one while in prohi.
bitory territory, to solicit, receive OF
accept orders for the sale, by retail
of intoxicating liquors therein.
"This matter should also be ia
CURED into by you to the end thai
that these laws may be fully carried
out and executed"

Division Bill Will Likely introduced
Next Session.


Next Session.
Lake Carries. La, June 1l.-That
the question of parish division will
be voted upon next year by the peo-
pie OF Calcasieu parish is now almost
certain.
That the bill for the submission of
the question will pass the state legis-
lature, is almost a certainty, as it is
not likely that any fight will be made
against it's passage.
The submission bill will be intro
duced at the next session of the Louis
lana Legislature. by Hon. Leon Locke,
a member of the general assembly
from Calcasieu parish. While Mr..
Locke does not favor the division OF
Calcasieu parish, he has openly stat
ed his willingness to present "a SUBJ
mission bill to the legislature. if the
people of the present parish ask him
to do so. With the bill coming to the
legislature through the hands of one
of its members from the parish, there
is no reason to doubt that the subiS-
sion of question will be refused.
The people of Jennings and DeiStd-
der have been anxious TO have this
matter brought to q vote, and it is ai'
most sure to be settled by an election
in June or July of next year.-Jen-
