To Get Money At Once.

The State institutions will imme-
diately get the balance of their mo-
ney on the third-class warrants for
1908. The State Board of Liquiia-
ton, at its meeting, borrowed from
the other funds of the State $4,000,
which will be used to pay in full she
third-class appropriations for 1908
About $4,000 of these appropria-
tions have not been paid. Prohab-
ly about $4,000 will not have to
be paid, 50 the officials estimate that
the $4,000 borrowed will take care
of the deficit. Although the money
was only borrowed a few days ago.
State Treasurer Steele is busy MAX
ing out the checks and these will
be forwarded at once to the institu-
tions. The Charity Hospital in New
Orleans and the State Normal
School at Natchitaches will get
the largest checks.

taxpayers directed against the Board
Of Supervisors of Election and the
Governor, the purpose of which is to
prevent these officials from promul-
eating the returns of the election
held last week to divide st. Landry
parish. The suit is based mainly on
the same grounds Of unconstitution-
ality raised in the first proceeding at
lacking the act of the legislature pro-
viding for the holding of the cleo
ton, but sets out fully other legal
objections against the legality OF the
net. the whole constituting u-strong
case for the plaintiffs. While the
first suit still stands according to the
amended decree of the Supreme
Court, 1t was thought prudent to file
also a suit after the election had
been held in order to meet every
phase of the case. No prayer for the
preliminary issuance of an injunc-
ton is made in the last petition, but
petitioners ask that the court order
that the returns of the election be not
promulgated and that the governor
be directed not to declare the parish
of Evangeline created according to
the terms of the act, or il such de-
claration be already made by him,
that same be decreed null and void.

SHOCKED BY DANCE.
Relatives Of Louise Alexander Want
to Stop "Temptation."


Lexington, Ky.-Society In South
western Kentucky has received
great shock during the past few days
over reports from New York concern
ing the nature of dance known as
the Temptation Dance" now being
given at vaudeville theatre in the
Metropolis by Miss Louise Alexan-
der Spalding, known to the stage
as Louise Alexander. The dance is
described as being even more sensa-
tional than the Salome dance. Miss
Spalding is a granddaughter of DR..
and Mrs. Wayland Alexander, her
grand father being one of the most
noted educators in the state. They
reside quietly on a farm near Hart
ford, Ohio county, and the young wo-
man devotes much of her stage earn
ings toward the support of her grand
parents, by whom she was raised fol-
lowing the separation of her father
and mother. 1t is said some steps
will likely be taken by relatives to
prohibit further presentation of the
dance by the young woman.
