The "Eata ..Bita Pi' Club. whose

the home of Charlotte Borrill for a
witch's dance on Halloween. The
house was decorated with all manner of
cats heads. bats, cats, owls and
witches. The girls spent short
time out of doors, giving their yells,
but returned early and began their
"time." They fingered over their
supper for long time. Among the
Halloweeny things for supper were
cookies made in the shapes of owls.

tired witch with her broom and caldron
hanging from a tripod of twigs, was
the source of more fortunes. At
twelve they began telling horrible
ghost stories with all the lights extin-
guished excepting a diminutive light
ed candle before the story teller.
Some were especially thrilling and the
ghosts and skeletons could be almost
seen prowling about. After a long
hilarious hour spent thus they toasted
marsh mellows for the remainder of
the evening.
The meet was called by. courtesy a
"slumber party' but the sleeping the
girls did is hardly deserving of men,.

rather long. the spell was gone and
the girls trooped off to school in a

WITHOUT OPPOSITION.

1t is very evident that Judge D.
N. Thompson, of Catahoula parish,
is the choice Of the voters of the
District for the high and exalted
position Of Circuit Judge Of the
First District, Second Circuit, Court
Of Appeals. as he received the unan-
nous nomination for the place by
the Democratic Executive Commit
tee, which met at Monroe last Fri.
day.
The Gazette scarcely anticipated
that Judge Thompson would have
opposition, but politics are so un-
certain, and there are 80 many
slips between the cup and the lip, y
that there is never telling positively
what is going to happen.
Judge Thompson is a gentlaman
learned in the law, possessing nat
urally an erudite mind, and a legal
acumen that will eminently fit him
for the place. Likewise he is an
earnest student Of Coke and Black
stone, and one of their ablest dis
ciples in North Louisiana.
In him the District would as
suredly have as able and impartial
. judge as ever wore the ermine on
the bench Of the District. The Ga
sette congratulates him on his NOM
nation, 80 unanimously bestowed,
and the citizens Of the District like
wise thereon. He will, in the ad-
ministration Of justice, play no
favorites whatever, but everybody
will look alike when they are in
his Court.

At last Justice is to be done

At last justice is to be done to
the memory Of the late Confederate
Chieftain, General Robert E. Lee,
and his statute is to occupy a place
in the Hall of Fame at Washington
City, where it should have been
years ago. This act of the Repub-
lican administration shows that the
asperities of the late Civil War are
passing away, that the dead past
is burying its dead, and the men,
cries of the heroes of that war will
be honored alike by all the citizens
Of the nation. 1t may be that Time
will tone things down to the extent
that the statute of jeff Davis will
some day find place in the Hall Of
Fame. for he was one of the greatest
heroes of the Mexican War, and was
the illustrations Secretary of War
under the administration of Presi-
dent Pierce.

the COMING ELECTION.

It should not be forgotten that
the coming primary for the choice
Of a Congressional nominee from this
1.-THE Fifth District, the date fixed
being September 9Th, and the Ga
zette hopes that every Ransdell DEM
ocrat in the District, rs we'll as all
others who recognize and appreciate
the valuable services that gentleman
has rendered his District during his
encumbency, will 60 to the polls
and cast their ballots for his reten-
ton in the place he now occupies
with 30 much credit and distinction
to himself and his native State.
There are perhaps other men in
the District who are as able and
energetic as Mr.. Ransdell, but thus
far the entries in the race would not
seem to indicate that there is one
Of them that could accomplish as
much as he, Immediately upon be-
ing sworn in as q member OF Con-
gress, If elected. and the State would
be the loser by the years that they
wold require to attain the ripe ex-
perience that he has gained, and
which has already counted so much
for the advancement and material
and substantial benefit OF good old
Louisiana.
These are things that should be
taken TO heart by all before depos-
iting their ballots in the forthcom-
ing primary, and if carefully weighed
there can be little or no doubt how
their ballots will be cast, but all
will 60 unanimously-or pretty near
ly so-for the present worthy Rep
resentative in the lower halls Of

TT WILL BE MARBLE.

It has been finally decided ~ the
authorities that be, that the pro-
posed new post-Office at New Or
leans shall be constructed Of marble,
and the supply will come from the
quarries Of Georgia. which will al
ford an inexhaustible supply Of the
very best material in that line, and
the Crescent City is easily accessible
to the place where it is to be OBJ
tanned.
As a general thing such structures
are confined exclusively to the
Northern and Eastern States, where
the government spares no expense
in giving the citizens Of the places
there the very best that can be had
and the expense thereof is never
begrudged, from the way things
look down here. The concession to
New Orleans may be the entering
wedge for other cities where appli.
cations have been made or appro.
priations already secured for post.
Offices and other similar public
structures.
The concession shows what per.
sistent and intelligent effort will
do. and in this the efforts of oul
distinguished Congressman. Hon.
Jos. E. Ransdell, are notably bear.
ing their fruits. He was alive ia
desires and wishes Of the citizens
Of New Orleans and of the State
generally, and left no stone un.
turned to get just exactly what they
wanted and when they wanted it.
There is no other man who could
have achieved any such results. the
Gazette feels quite assured.

APPRECIATED,

The Farmer has received letter of thanks
from the Women's Progressive Union ex-
pressing their appreciation of our efforts to
aid them in making their undertakings sue
cessful. Such an expression, coming from
body which has worked so unselfshly and
so persistenly for the uplift Of Covington, is
very acceptable to the Farmer. The Union
has done much that is commendable, often
under very discouraging circumstances. Its
latest undertaking, with the twofold purpose
of assisting the fire department and giving
to Covington an entertainment of high merit,
was received with public approval, and the
succeeding lyceum performances should
prove just as attractive.

rescue Ballinger from the flood of disap-
proval that has submerged nearly every Sec
ton. INSTRUMENTATION was the excuse for
removing CLAWS; lack of consideration for

ment of the committee out of the hands Of
the Speaker had failed, the approaching in
vestigation might have given to the public
little more knowledge of the true state of af-
fairs than it has at present. But with fair
and open investigation, with the right to be
represented by attorney, Pinchot should be
able to bring out all the facts supporting his

Editor st. Tammany Farmer:
have been reading with great interest
your editorials urging the people Of St. Tam
any Parish to engage more largely in truck
farming and darylng, and the raising OF
cattle, hogs, and chickens There can be
no doubt Inat the country about Covington,
Ablta and Vaudeville afford ideal conditions
Tor these enterprises and it only requires
a little patience, enterprise and courage to
successfully start them. The high prices
lat which all such products can be sold
should stimulate people to 20 into these
lines.
| foresee for Covington, Abita and Mande-
Vile magnificent future The Temporary
depression which has existed for the last
two years will soon pass away for it is the
invariable rule for a panic to be followed by
a period Of industrial depression lasting a
couple Of years, to be then followed by an
era of expansion, growth and development
greater than before. Hence in my opinion
we have struck rock bottom in financial and
business conditions, and the trend from now
on must be upward. Everything points to
easier conditions throughout the country
Locally, we will now go forward more rap
idly than we have done at any time in the past
The mills are running, the demand for lum-
Der is good, the price Of agricultural pro-
ducts is satisfactory; we know that many
new buildings are projected, including a
large hotel at Sulphur Springs, which am
informed is assured beyond question. The

vile and New Orleans with schedule of one
