Boy Scouts to Decorate Soldiers
Graves

Ihe leaders of the Boy Scouts OF
America hope that the Scout Masetrs
throughout the country will make spe-
clal efforts this year to observe Memo
rial day. Plans are being worked out
Tor the decoration of the graves of the
heroes OF the different wars of the
y hlted states. 1t is planned to have
the boys participate in the memorial
ceremonies for two reasons. First to
recall to the boys the deeds of the he
roes who fought for the country. and.
secondly, &c arouse their PATRIOTISM.
1t is believed that these things can be
done without developing the military
spirit IN the boy. but rather train him
to grow up To be a model man.

In our announcement column in to-
days issue will be found the name of
Judge Edmund Maurin, who is a
candidate for the office Of justice Of
the peace of the fourth ward, SUBJ
ject to the action of the Democratic

ally acquainted with nearly every

of formal introduction of him at
our. hands. He has filled the office
of justice of the peace of Donald
sonville for a number OF years past
and has made a first-elass magis-.
trate in every sense of the word,
being fair and impartial in his rul-
ings and exhibiting in all of his de-
cisions thorough acquaintance with
the law in it's various phases His
qualifications for the office are un-
questioned, since he is trained and
experienced lawyer and man Of
Intelligence and judgment, and if
reelected he may be relied upon
to discharge the duties incumbent
upon him in most satisfactory and
reliable manner.

Hodseson Boys Refused New Trial
and Sentenced.

Inc motion for a new trial in the
case OF Hardy and Mayhue Hodgeson
VINO We're convicted at the last term
oi court OF assault with intent to rape
was overruled by Judge Paul Leche in
me dlstrlct court Thursday morning.
sne accused were represented by
attorneys Pugh and Lemann, who at
the trial in July last reserved twenty
bills OF exceptions, many of them re-
latlng to the refusal of the court TO
grant a continuance owing to the alb
sence or witnesses whose testimony
the defense claimed to be material,
Wnlie others related to the courts
rulings on testimony offered on the
ofand by the principal prosecuting
witness, Miss Florence Broussard
and other witnesses. The motion
tor new trial was argued by both
Messrs, Pugh and Lemann, who claim
81 that the verdict was not in ac-
cord with the law and the evidence
and cited reasons to show why their
clients should be given another
chance. District Attorney Philip Gil
bert was present but did not make
an argument, submitting the matter
to the court on the showing made
by the defense. Judge Leche over
raled the motion, stating that nothing
mad been brought forward to show
that the verdict was not consistent
with the testimony adduced at the
trial and the law in the case, nor
mad it been demonstrated that the
accused had not received a fair and
impartial trial.
At this mornings session Of. court.
Judge Leche sentenced Mayhue Hod-
geson to imprisonment at hard labor
in the state penitentiary for a term
OF five years, and Hardy Hodgeson
to imprisonment for three years. In
passing sentence upon the men, the
judge stated that Hardy Hodgeson's
general reputation seemed to be.
much better than that of Mayhue,
and he would take this fact into con-.
sideration and make the younger
mans sentence lighter than that i'm
posed upon Mayhue Hodgeson, who
was in reality the actual perpetrator
of the crime for which the prisoners
were convicted. Attorneys Pugh and
Lemann gave notice of an appeal to
the supreme court, raturnable ac-
cording to law.
The Hodgeson boys have been con-,
fined in the local jail since their
conviction at the July term of court.
