ABDUL HAMID DOOMED.


Officers aud soldiers alike have come
to ConstantiDople with one hope aud
objsct-io remove Abdul HamId
from the throne aud to demand his
death and the dispersal Of his body
among the provinces ss sign thai
tyranny is over.
Considerable sums Of money were
found on the sultsn's soldiers who sur
rendered to the Macedonans. 1t ia
alleged that 200. 900 pounds were dis
tnbnted among the provinces of the
garrison of the cPpiial. Only one per.
son could commsnd such sum, and II
this is proved, the fate of the sulian is
sealed.
The military authorities are not dis-
posed to relax their hold and permit in.
direct inierferences by parliament
Hitherto their conduct has been admir-
able. Order has been preserved, and
there has been no violence of any kind.
Ooe of the highest military authorities
said yesterday:
ave iutsnd 10 make clean sweep.
We shall try every one suspected OF con-
nection with the recent coup. There
will be no respect for person Or position.
Even the highest shsll not escape.
The reason we approached the capital
slowly was to avoid disturbance which
would be likely to give an excuse for
foreign Intervention"
Abdul Hsmid still remains IN the pal
ace, through the garrison has surrender
ed. 1t is suspected, however, that 3
guard of a few thousands strong ia still
hidden in the walled citadel OF the pal
ace.
The guns of the Young Turks, there
fore, remained trained on the Yildiz
Kiosk.
A caucus Of senators snd deputies yes.
lerdsy determined to make an tffJrt to
campsl Abdul Hsmid to sbdicaIe under
the ecclesisstica. law, by the terms of
which decree may be issued by The
sheik-ul-islam, the highest authority Of
Mohsmmedanism next 10 the sultan,
pronouncing the sultan incapable Of
ruling.
The grounds upon which the Issuance
Of csnoulcal rescript will be demanded
sre that the snltan's supremacy "a harm
fol to the church, contrary to the sacred
Law, and unjust to the Turkish people
The programme as agreed upon st the
caucus is that a demand shall be made
tor the abdicaton OF Abdul Hsmid
simultaneously from the highest court
Of the church, from the national assem-
bly,, snd from the military chief. The
sultan will be offered a palace and a
liberal allowance.

weather and cr0p Notes.

The following paragraphs arequoted
from this weeks letter to the Louisi-
ana Planter:
''This section was visited by copious-
rains last week which continued inter-
mittently until Sunday night, when
clearing skies and considerable drop
in the temperature followed. White
frosts we're plainly In evidence Mon
day and Tuesday mornings, and the
Evan Hall records, which are accepted
as authentic and reliable, show that
the mercury got down as low as 35 de-
grees, or only three degrees removed
from the freezing line. The spell
was unseasonably cool, but not OF suf-
icient severity to cause any particular
damage to the sprouting cane crop.
The rainfall, although of greater vol
ume than was needed, has been bene-
fetal in the main, and with the advent
of the warmer temper atures now being
experienced a general impetus will be
given to vegetation.
,'Fall plant and stubble cane are IN
excellent condition as a rule and give
promise of unusually fine stands.
Spring plant is backward on most
plantations, owing to the cool snaps,
but no apprehension is felt that it will
not come to the front in good shape as
the season advances.
Hon. H. o. Maher, chief Weigher
in the customs service at New Orleans,
is in receipt OF letter from his son,
Chas. G. Maher of Don jacksonville,
giving some account OF the progress
of sugar making on the Nipe Bay
Company's extensive estate at Preston,
Cuba, where the writer Of the letter is
employed as a sugar boiler. sAscen-
sion has been permitted to quote the
following items, indited on the 5thin.
slant: We reached total of 105, 900
bags of sugar yesterday, averaging
800 pounds per bag. We are getting
2O4 pounds of sugar to the ton OF cane,
and have averaged SO far 1870 pounds.
From what I can learn we will finish
grinding about the last of August.
Mr.. Sage, manager of the Nipe Bay
Company receivedtw letters last week
demanding money, and threatening
that unless it was paid the standing
cane would be burned. OF course no
attention was paid to the demand, and
the field was on FIRE when the time was
up. The flames swept about 500 acres
and We are grinding some of the burnt
cane today. Mr.. Sage is apprehen-
siye that the outrage will be re-
peated.

TIE Locke Law Sustained.

A decision was rendered by the
Louisiana supreme court last Monday
which affirms the legality Of the law
enacted at the 1908 session of the gen.
eral assembly to prohibits book max
ing and other forms of raee-traek
gambling in this state. The act is
commonly known as the Locke law,
having been framed and introduced
by Representative Leon Locke of
Calcasien parish.
The Judgment of the supreme court
sustains the decision of Judge Frank
D. Chretien Of the criminal district
court of New Orleans in the case of
the State of Louisiana VS.. Robert NJ.
Sheffield and Piacide Frigerio, where
in the accused were found guilty of
contravening the new law BY attempt
ing to make a book on races at the
City Park track some weeks ago, and
were condemned to pay fine of sew
#eral bundled dollars and undergo a
term of imprisonment.
The violation of the law was de-
liberate and premeditated, the object
being to contest the legality OF the
statute with view to reviving horse
racing in New Orleans, and it is be-
Iieyed that the offending book makers
had the backing of prominent and
wealthy promoters of the game, 1t
was contended that the defendants
were not using such q system or de-
vice as to come within the inhibition
of the law, but the supreme court de
clared that the Locke act prohibits
any and all kinds of book. making as
applied to race tracks. A rehearing
may be asked for, but there is slight
probability that the Judgment of the
court as pronounced last Monday will
be reconsidered or amended

Interesting Contests At High School.

A large audience gathered IN the.
auditorium of the Donaldsonville High
School Thursday night to witness the
contests in spelling and declama alton
held for the purpose of selecting com
petitors to represent the local school
in the rally day exercises OF the public
schools of Louisiana to be held at
Baton Rouge on April 30 and May l..
The exercises were opened at 8 p. M.
with q spelling bee participated in by
twenty students previously selected in
preliminary contests held in each of
the upper grades with the exception OF
the senior, or high school grade. The
words included in the bee were pro-
pounded by Parish Superintendent G.
J. Brown and the contestants were as
follows: Misses Mabel Wutke, jamie
Moseman, Natalie Broussard Emma
Ohlmeyer, Carrie Lear, Nancy Proff1tt,
III annie Wintz, Anna Henderson, Mia
Sims, Inez Greenwood, Maud TruxiIlo,
Dorestine Curse, Maud Brockhoeft,
Edna Ramirez, Beulah Fisher, Annie
Oubre, Irene Richard, May Babin and
Olive Howard, and Master Sidney
Broussard Misses Mabel Wutke and
Iaez Greenwood proved the winners of
the contest and will represent the
school at Baton Rouge.
The contestants in the defamation
contest were Misses Nita Sims, Sophie
Bloch. Rose Harding, Inez Green
wood, Rosebud Singer, Mary White
man, leila Collins, Rosalie Allen and
Leila Bah. The judges were DR.. T.
q. Hanson, Rev. H. n. Harrison, W.
D. Park, James Won Lotten and Mr..
Sanderson, and after celebrating for
some minutes they finally selected
Miss Sophie Bloch as the winner Of
the contest, with Miss Mia Sims sec
ond. All OF the contestants acquitted
themselves with marked degree of
ability, and it was a hard task for
the judges to select two from among
the number as most deserving of the
Iaurels of victory.
