LITTLE MEMO
AT THE TULANE.

Klaw & Changers Little Memo, "
which comes to the Tulane Theatre,
New Orleans, for two short weeks
begin ming Sunday January Both, is
described as dazzling triumphant
success. Its phenomenal financial re-
turns in New York, Philadelphia, Bos-
ton and Chicago, warrant the state
ment that nothing like it has ever
been seen IN America, or, in fact in
all the world Little Memo" presents
presents the best and most trium-
plant in all details of its construction
and productive management that the
stage has ever known. The music by
Victor Herbert is said to be the best
in melody and the richest in orches-
tration that he has ever been given to
musical comedy; and in book and ly-
RIGS, Harry B. Smith is said to have
shown his cleverest work in his story
and stanzas based on the famous car
toons Of Winsor McCay in the New
York Herald. The adventures of
Little Memo" it is said, follow a
CONSTANT story. With the wonderful
scenic effects, gorgeous costumes and
wealth of melody, genuine vein of
humor runs through the production.
Joseph Hawthorn, Harry Clay Blaney
and Harry Kelly, as DR.. Pill, Flip and
the dancing girl respectively, are the
principal comedians. Master Gabriel
plays the role of Little Memo"
Aimee Ehrlich is the Little Princess.
Natalie Alte is cast as the Valentine
Fairy. Other members of the large
company, which numbers over $50
people. are Queenie Vassar, Maude
Campbell, Dave Abrahams, Collins,
Hart andl W. w. Black. The pro-
duction is in three acts and eleven
scenes. The entertainment abounds
in bright, catchy songs and tuneful,
whistly airs and includes three songs
which make stirring appeals to pa
triotism; namely, Remember the
Old Continentals," "'The Chime of
the Liberty Bell" and "Give Us
Fleet, for Uncle Sam has the Men. "
The Usual matinees will be given on
Wednesday and Saturday each week.
Special excursion rates will be offered

SCHOOL NOTES.
To Mothers.

~ WOtlSTS.
Parents who feel.that their children
have not passed as high an examina-
ton as they thought they were pre-
pared to should inspect the examina-
ton papers themselves. It will en-
able them to understand just such
work as should be done by the pupil
at home, and will disabuse their minds
of any idea of unfairness.
Medals Won.
Walter Diel won the medal for the
highest examinations in the sixth
grade.
Estelle Sears won the medal for the
highest average in the Sixth grade,
Miss Robinson's room, with an aver
age of 189. Camille Pigott, second,
1876; Esther Beaucoudray, third, 1876.
This is four weeks that Estelle
Sears has won this medal.
In accordance with the method es-
tablished for the elimination of two
grades or two classes in room, there
will be no A division in the rooms and
pupils will have to 90 into the B division
OF the grade they are prepared to
enter. Those who began in B divi-
sion last fall will not be affected.
Hereafter there will be but one class
in each grade and one grade in each
room. Amy class that is but half way
through the grade must make up those
studies before they can enter the next
higher grade. So it all depends upon
the extra work Of the scholar as to
whether he will be able to pass into a
higher room. Studies should be taken
up at home.
There has been some talk that Prof.
Lyon would hold private summer
school. This is not true. Scholars will
have to depend upon their own energy
and perseverance in home study.
Schools to be Consolidated
1t is contemplated consolidating the
schools of Simmons Creek and Bush
and the building of a convenient
school house; sending Of Lewisburg
scholars to Vaudeville school; send
ing scholars Of Demourelle school to
Vaudeville or Covington; sending
Hickory Grove scholars to Abita
Springs; sending Garden District
scholars to Covington. Perhaps a
new school may be erected for the
German settlement, Hickory Grove
and Garden District scholars.
Prof. Lyons Medal.
The gold medal offered by Prof.
Lyon for the pupil making the great
est progress in penmanship is on ex-
hibition in the window of the Hainer-
Afford jewelry company. It is a
wreath and centerpiece. pendant from
a bar-pin by three links, and bears
the inscription around the center,
Public School," on the bar the word
''Penmanship." It is very pretty. |

oition at the store of H. J. Smith & |

FARMERS ASSOCIATION
OF FOLSOM, La.

The Truck Farmers Association of
Folsom are getting ready to plant this
spring. Mr.. George M. Fendlason has
been active in promoting an interest
in this business. He has circulated
literature of interest to truck grow
ers, and he has just purchased thirty
bushels of beans that will be planted
by the members. Quite an acreage in
radishes and beans will be planted,
and the New Orleans Great Northern
Railroad have promised rates that will
place them on the same footing with
other truck growers.
Mr.. Fendlason is quite enthusiastic
, in the matter. 1t is to such men that
the parish will be indebted for the
prosperity that will surely follow a
general engagement in trucking bust
ness.

FREDERICK SULLIVAN.

The Daily States of January Is, has
the following about the death of Fred
erick Sullivan: On last Tuesday af-
ternoon death cut short a bright
young life, ending a most promising
career through the sudden and totally
unexpected death of Frederick Sulli-
van, the bright young son of w. H.
Sullivan, general manager of the
Great Southern Lumber Company, at
Bogalusa, La.
The young man, who was but six
teen years of age, was born in Buffalo,
New York, and came to New Orleans
with his parents when his father took
the management of the big Bogalusa
plant. During four years past he had
attended school at the Rugby Acade-
my and during all that time had not
been i'll once up to last Tuesday.
During Tuesday afternoon he was sud-
denly taken i'll and excused from his
classes. Drs. Callan, O'Hara and
Baras were called in Immediately and
did all they could for him, but to no
purpose, the young sufferer passing
into the brighter life at o'clock the
evening of the same day. His demise
was due to Bright's disease. He is
survived by his parents, a brother
and sister.
The death of young sullivan has
cast deep gloom over the students
at Rugby, for he was intensely popu-
lar with them, and all share that sim
cere sorrow which the Grim Reaper
has rested on the hearts of those near
est and dearest to him.
The remains were taken to Buffalo
last Wednesday for interment in the
family burial place.

The most common accident next
Monday-the Fourth-is burning. For
small burns cleanse the scorchsd area
with warm soapsuds and then cover
with moist baking soda on damp
clean cloth or towel.
For extensive burns put the arm,
leg or whole body into a bath heated
to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. with some
baking soda in the water or pint OF
picric acid solution to 10 gallons OF
water, and send for a doctor.
In case the eyes or face should be
injured by powder or flying fragments
of wadding, wash the parts and get
doctor at once. The physician will
take steps Immediately to prevent
lockjaw. Put the patient into a dark
room, lying down or In a semi-re-
cumbent position, and apply cold
cloths. Be sure the cloths are abso-
lutely clean.
ANY cuts should be encouraged to
bleed freely by applying hot water
and squeezing slightly. After several
moments of bleeding, 10 minutes at
the most, during which time the cut
should be bathed with hot soapsuds,
cover with a clean cloth and apply
pressure to stop bleeding. II the
bleeding Is in spurts and very profuse,
stop at once by wrapping the arm or
leg very tightly above the cut, and
send for a doctor.

FIRST AID TO THE INJURED
ON THE FOURTH OF JULY
BY AN EXPERT.

Ordinary bruises are best healed
by applying cloths or putting the part
in hot water. After the pain is les
sened put on cold applications. Alter
nate use OF the hot and cold will re-
lieve the pain and decrease the sore
ness and discoloration afterwards.
The greatest menace is the possibil-
ity of tetanus, or lockjaw. This dread
full and practically always fatal disease
does not show itself for several days
after the injury. The skin wound,
which is the cause Of the tetanus, may
appear small and insignificant. II
may entirely heal over before the real
symptoms of lockjaw appear.
Last year there were $50 cases Of
ficially reported in the whole country.
There were probably others which
were not reported. But OF these $50,
so per cent were due to accidents with
toy revolvers and blank, cartridges.
Just few grains Of powder or a wad
entering the skin and neglect Of i'm
mediate attention may result In
agonizing suffering few days later
with well nigh inevitable death. Six
teen per cent were caused by the
dynamite or giant firecracker, 10 per
cent by loose powder, and 5 per cent
by toy cannons. 1t is far better to
avoid these dangers, but II courted
they should be understood well
enough to avoid these consequences
Do not hesitate II your boy or girl has
the misfortune to be hurt. Call a good
doctor at once. and take immediate
steps agaist the deadly tetanus.
