years OF age, was engaged in assis--
ting IN the working of cane der

ted on the Ducros Plantation, pro-
perty of Palmer Bros, near Schrie-

crushing him. Others working

some few received scratches and
bruises. tits said that the young
man seemed fixed to the spot and
his fellow workers called
to him to get out Of the way it ap-
peared that he could not move, pos
sibly being somewhat paralyzed by
the fright caused him. He was a
young man of very good habits and
promised well. His remains were

School Districts
Spoken Of
Superintendent Lafargue attended educa-
tional rally at'Lockport and gave out
views regarding education.
Idea seems to be to consolidate schools
and have three districts to vote special
taxes to relieve ongestedicoaditions ex
isting.
Matter taken up with citizens at LOCK-
port and intention is to have school
board order $50, 900 school building.

Superintendent w. S. La.
fargue was in Lockport last
Thursday and conferred with
the citizens of that community in
a sort OF educational or school
rally held at that place. He gave
out as bis ideas that he bslieved
in the consolidation Of the diff
ferent schools of bhe parish, shab
is red ucing the mum Der Of schools
and having better facilities and
more teachers in the consolidated
schools. He is also OF she opin-
ion that there should be three
school districts started at Thibo-
daux, Raceland and Lockport
and that each should have mo-
dern and well equipped build
ings with ten teachers or more
fully prepared to do all work. In
reducing the number of schools
and in forming districts the peo
pie of the districts could tax
themselves and build magnificent
schoos buildings.
1t seems TO be the idea at Lock
port 10 build IA Twenty thou sand
dollar scho9! building to relieve
the c.,agrssed condition prevail
ing III Li,s pu biic school at that
place. Superintendent Lafargue
circulated among the proninent
people of the town and took up
bhe matter with them towards
The end and hope of encoura-
giny them in their contem plated
dea of progressiveness and with a
view of Ultimately securing a bull
ling for that town, in keeping with
It's needs.
The school board is looking into
he matter of giving Lockport and
other rural districts with well at.
.ended schools better facilities and
better equipment to carry on their
educational work.

Yesterday was All Saints Day,
the First of November, The diff
ferent religious denominations
marked the day in the usual appro-
pirate way. The cemeteries in The
afternoon were the scene OF large
crowds of people visiting the graves
and admiring the floral decorations
and marks of respect to the dead,
shown by all. The st. Joseph
Catholic Cemetery was, as is always
the case, mass OF flowers, very
few of the numerous burying places
being neglected and all bearing
evidences of having been attended
to by some relative or friend. At
the Protestant Cemetery, st. Johns,
the graves presented their usual ap-
pearance and here as at the for
mer place there was evidence of the
hands of kind friends and loving re-
latives, for flowers were on the
graves in profusion.
At the Catholic Church there
were services the entire day begin
ming with masses in the morning
and vespers and benediction, to-
sether with sermon, in the. after
looa. To-day the day will be marked

Exhibit here on Monday November IA.
The Great Adam Forepaugh and Sells

entire snow here.
This announcement is made officially to-
day. Town should turn out good
crowd.

It is now several seasons since
this most popular of all tented
shows has included this city in
its itinerary. Is will be welcomed
with all the more eagerness be-
cause Of It's long absence. 1t is
well understood that it means a

tant than has fallen to our lot for

sidered by those familiar with
the show business as the largest
OF it's kind. While other shows
have stood still it has steadily ad
vanced. Its size is far in excess
of those that have claimed to be
its superior.
The best news of allis the fact
that people are to see something
entirely different from anything
that has ever been done by am
usement purveyors. The man.
agement set an army Of skilled
artists and designers to work

/ The Developments in the selsc
tion of a Superintendent OF Ed
ucation for New Orleans to sue
seed the late Warren Easton has
become not only interesting but
exceedingly notorious and ridicr
lous. 1t has developed the fact
that the public school system OF
the State of Louisiana is way
down deep in the dirty mire OF
cheap, selfish and unprincipled
politics. The good of the schools
and the system are sec ondary on

the advancement of political favo

Judge Charges
!. jury Strong
Makes special charge on the advisability
1t up TO Police Jury.
Advises abolition of AL toll bridges in
parish and calls attenbion that Is has
proved SUCCESS wherever put into pra-
tice.
Asks parish to take over bridge beicnlng
to oprivate corporation and convert INTO
free bridge.

AT .Alsxandria last week Judge
Blackman in charging the Grand
Jury Of the Parish Ut Rapides
gave utterance to few very pro
gressive and strong ideas, ask
ing the Grand Jury 10 make she
proper recommendations TO the
Police Jury.
Among other things he urged
the issuance Of bonds by the Pa
rish of Rapides 30 the extent OF
three hundred or four hundred
thousand dollars to secure good
roads throughout the parish, and
otherwise advanced other pro-
gressive moves.
The strongest part of the
charge to US, appeared in the
Times Democrat OF the 25th Oct
ober, where in despatch from
Alexandria a part of the charge
is reported in full. Judge Black
man said "There should not be q
toll bridge in the parish and l
urge the grand jury to request
the police jury to take such ac-
ton whereby the parish may be
permitted to obtain control of
the Alexandria and PineviIle traf
fic bridge and convert it into a !
free bridge. II has been done in
other places and has proved a sue
cess"
The bridge in question, spans ,
the Red River, is several times
the length and width of the |
bridge at this place, much wider, /
having separate passage for i
vehicles and pedestrians, is built
entirely OF iron and has two
bridge keepers on day and
night. in fact one man can not
operatethe same alone. Further
more, the bridge belongs to "a cor |
poration, a company OF citizens,
otherwise the bridge would have
been free already. We learn !
from good friends in Alexandria
that the town and parish are go
ing to issue bonds, appropriate
the bridge as public property for
public use and is going to throw
the same open to traffic free. be-
sides paying all expense of main
tenance and operation. II Alex
andria, head and shoulders in
debt over us, in a poorer section
of the state, can do this it is a
crime to say Thibodaux and La
can not make the Thibo-
daux bridge free.

Narrow Escape

T, Mr.. Edwin Picou, who drives
one of Mr.. Louis Riviere's deli
very wagons, had a narrow es'
cape with his life last Saturday
afternoon. While returning to
! the busy store from which be
| had a short while previous left
with large quantity Of goods to
deliver in ditferens portions of
town, the animal attached to the
wagon in some manner became
frightened and started in a run,
he tried to manage Ihe horse but
to no avail. The animal tearing
down jackson street ran into a
shed over the banket at fruit
stand at the corner of jackson
and Rose Streets, tearing the
posts from under the roof of the
shed and precipitating the shed
to the sidewalk, and Picou was
in the meanwhile thrown from
the wagon and fell between the
shaft and front wheels and was
after wards precipitated to the
ground striking The post and be-
ing brown On oyster shells. His
injuries were at first considered
very serious, bus a laser report
states that he was noetas serious
ly injured as Was supposed. He
received several bruises about
the head and face and possibly
some internal injaries. How he
was not instantly killed or did
not have limb broken is mira
culous.

pounds of first sugar to the ton, this
is more than was secured last year
from first, second and third sugars.
Another statement with as good
authority, says thar planters are
loading two tons of cane to each
wagon, showing that the tonnage to
the acre is also better. The cold
last week should check the growth
and add sugar to the stalk. The
cold was a bit severe but no appre.
ciable harm was done, although ice
was reported Saturday morning and
there was a heavy frost, as we'll as a
heavier one Sunday morning, the
thermometer being one degree
