w. II. PRINCE
"An Innocent Man" Resisting Extra
ditiOn Desperately.

The latest advice from Chicago,
ILL.,, is that w. H. Prince Of white
House Pantry" Notoriety, is resisting
extradition desperately. He has
three lawyers defending him, one
being a negro. These attorneys are
trying to have revoked the requlsl-
tic non the plea that Prince has been
very much misused, that he is being
prosecuted an dthat he is an inno-
cent man.
If Prince is innocent and has no
fear or apprehension of justice, why
should he resist the mandate OF the
law? An innocent man, instead OF
paying thousands of dollars to at
torneys, would have offered no re-
sistance but would have come read
ily and given the proof of his lnno-
cence.
There may be more delays, but II
| is not believed that he can escape
from the clutches of the law.

Water Meters.

There appears to be general mis-
understanding about water meters
due perhaps to a proposed change in
the rates of so cents to 90 cents. AS
so cents is the minimum rate already
fixed, it should not be changed. The
choice of meters or flat rate as il
now stands should be left optional
with the consumer. The law will moi
tolerate discrimination, nor coult
any ordinance Of the Council or aci
of the water company vitiate thu
contract of any consumer who is be-
ing supplied by water by contracf
by meter. The proposed advance tt
80 cents is certainly not for tht
benefit of the consumer.

FLOYD KING
OF Louisiana Has Plan for Great
Highway.

Washington, Aug. ti.-If bill in
troduced in the Senate yesterday by
Senator Cullom of Illinois is enacted
into law, the national capital will be-
come the center of wheel OF seven
great national highways passing
through practically every State In
the Union. The bill was introduced
at the request of former Represen-
tative ]. Floyd King of Louisiana,
and was referred to the committee
on postoffices and post roads.
The seven great highways provid-
ed for in the bill will have one ter
minus in Washington. The other ex-
trcmities proposed are Portland, Me.
Buffalo, N. Y, Seattle, Wash, Sar
FranciAco, CAL, Can Diego, CAL, Aus
| tin. Tex, and Miami, Fla. It is pro-
posed that they be called respective
ly the Washington National highway
jefferson National highway, Gran
National Highway, Monroe Nationa
highway, and the Lee National high
way.
It is estimated that the cost of tn
proposed highways would not excee'
si48.000,000 to be raised by the issu
| ance of bonds. After the roads hav
Ibeen built, it is proposed to pay TO
4 their cost of maintenance by the col
i lection of tolls.

THE GRAND STAND
Its Construction UnavOidably De-
layedUntil Next Year.

As announced by Secretary Brueg-
gerhoff of the State Fair, the con-
struction of the new grand stand
must be delayed until next year.
This is a great disappointment, but
il is unavoidable. This grand stand
is to be constructed of steel and con-
crete. As explained by contractor,
it would be necessary to have the
foundation lay and set for at least
thirty days before beginning on the
structural work, and therefore it
would not be possible to have the
grand stand completed for use by
October 81 as stipulated.
There is also another unavoidable
delay attending the sale of the bonds
voted by the citizen taxpayers. How
ever, this disappointment will not
operate against the Fair, which is tc
be presented on the grandest scale
and with the greatest variety OF ex-
hibits.
The grand stand which has beer
in service during the years past VII
be provided with greater seating ca
pacity.
In the course of construction ar
the buildings for which the Police
Jury appropriated the money. Thes
buildings will be attractive and cred
liable to the Police Jury and tn
parish. ,

 President F. J. Working introduced the speaker, who considered the sub ject in practical way, speaking from experience and acquaintance with Sunday school work. He laid empha- sis upon the hymns to be sung, that they should be chosen with applica- ton to the subject of the day and that the attention of the school should be directed to their definite message. He spoke of adding variety to the ex- ercises by having the school sing in sections. by classes, the boys and girls sperately, or even in reading the words of the hymn instead of singing them. The idea of the day could be central ized by questions from the platform and assignments could be made to classes to take part ill the exercises. In his school he said, they achieved a reverential ending to the session by reciting the benediction together. One of the finest assets for a superintend- ent was smile, for you gain nothing by frown

was brought up by a question ad dressed to him, MT. Phelps said that he was opposed to this on the ground of it's inequality. often comparing the offerings of a class of children against a class of adults. who naturally could give more than the younger people. He was also asked what he did about temperance lesson, and said that they always studied a missionary pro- gramme on the quarterly temperance Sunday. and while he abated not one whit his zeal and enthusiasm for tenn perance, he objected to the lessons be- cause they came in as an interruption to the regular course of study.
 Rev. c. Wilson Harrison of Gales discussion which followed MT. Phelps remarks and President Working com mended what had been said about the choice of hymns. MT. Working extend ed his remarks to include word for the solemnity and the solidity of the hymns to be used and, he gave an illustration that the children like the best and don't need to be brought up on the lighter stuff. To test the mat ter at one time, he said, he had had a vote taken in his day school on which songs the children liked best in given lot of Christian music. The vote was unanimous, from the lowest to the highest grades, for the hymn, Come All Ye Faithful, although the list con tained many airs that were of the catchy variety.
 In adjourning, the meeting passed a vote of thanks to MT. Phelps.

YOUR GRAY HAIRS
 QUICKLY VANISH
A Harmless Remedy, Made from Gar den Sase-Restores Color to Gray Hair.

A feeling of sadness accompanies
 the discovery of the first gray hairs. which. unfortunately, are looked upon as heralds of advancing age. Gray 1 hairs, however, are not always an in dication of advancing age. for many
 people have gray hairs quite early in
 life. Of course. it is unnatural and indicates that there is something wrong
 with the individual, and that Nature
 needs assistance in correcting the trou-
 ble. The same is true of hair that is constantly falling out and becoming
 thinner every day. If everything is
 light with Nature, the hair, even irt
 comparatively elderly neople. should
 be long. thick and glossy, without even
 a streak of gray.
 The ideal assistant to Nature in re- storing and preserving the hair is
 WYeths Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
 edy a clean and wholesome dressing
 for daily use. It not only removes
 candrIff, but sbengthens weak. thin growth. A few applications will re- store faded or gray hair to it's natural color.
