than their expectations, 50 mucn
so that our sister Lodge praised

very we'll pleased. Under good
of the Order speeches were made
by the various brothers Of bo,h
Lodges, and from the way things
went, why. We would of called
the meeting one Of Iberia Parish.
| This meeting has bound the ties
Of friendship strongly between the
two Lodges, and We will ever re-
member it. The principal speak
er Of the evening was Brother
Jules Dreyfus. he spoke on the
spirit of the work and the APP
plause he received was beyond eX-
preston. Almost every brother
had something to say. Brother
Dave Davis Of Jeanerette Lodge,
spoke on the Lesson of Char

terms.

WILD MAN" IN JAIL.

Pearl Wilson. colored. was ar
rested last week in New Iberia
by Deputy Sheriff J. b. Frederick
on a charge of petit larceny, and
lodged in jail. The warrant was
sworn out by C. F. Hamilton a
showman> connected with Lach-
mans tent shows which exhibited
here two weeks ago. Wilson is
charged with stealing a set of
false teeth and a coat.
Wilson. the ''wild man. was
one of the Attractions" being
secured with a chain around his
neck. In the same tent were
"Aunt Jane, the witch. " said to
be 103 years old. and burned Sc
verely for witchcraft; also, the
"spider man." a repulsive defor-
nifty. The "wild man" wore a
wig. and with false teeth, or large
tushes protruding from his mouth
uttered savage yells. 1t was these
teeth that he was accused Of steal
ing when he quit the show.
When arrested in New Iberia
by Deputy Frederick the "wild
man" showed no indications of
savagery but tamely submitted.
Wilson is about 81 years Of age,
and evidently Iof considerable
strngth. When questioned in Jail
about the affair. he said
"Boss; it's just like this: |
didn t steal dat ar coat, and dem
teeth; they just got mixed up
among things; I wore d. false
teeth when 7 was chained in de
pit, and a wig. All | had to do

SOMETHING INFLUENCES OF
THE RAIN.

We presume every one has per-
iods of depression, when the mind
will not respond to the demands
Of the body, and it is impossible
to fashion thought in attractive
raiment. Frequently, when the
editorial mind is harassed by
the conflicting problems of bust
ness and politics, social reforms
and progressive agric ultural meth
DDS, it is soothing just to sit calm
| ly by the window and listen to the
rain as it gently fails against the
window pane, or watch it as II
trickels through the branches Of
the trees and run in rlvulets down
the walk.
Such was the condition Of the
writer last night, and for the
nonce we forgot that there was
such thing as municipal cam
paign or anything of such an or
binary nature. We could only re-
call the little verse:
Hear the music of the rain,
On the roof and window pane,
Falling down,
Falling down"
Was there ever such a delicate
music in the world as the music Of
the rain? How it sings along the
window pane and whimpers at the
/ por, and calls and calls, till all
our small, petty troubles are for
gotten and We live again with
those we loved when We We're lit
tie and light of heart and used
to run to the old barn on the rainy
days and play in the fragrant hay
and listen, between gales Of chill
dish laughter, to the music Of the
rain. What a blessed recess in the
hard school of life the rainy day
is-if we use it right.
For one thing it means to many a
day at home alone with the family.
No one is going to run in to Cos
sip. talk politics or rehash . all
the nonsense about this or that
incident. discuss dresses and hats
or the latest b. of sensational
news. 1t means at home with the
children! They love the rain,
bless their gay little arts. 1t
takes more than : rm to de-
press them.

Again the members Of the
Knights of Columbus of New he
ria have arranged for an Aviation
Meet in this City, scheduled for
March the 18th for the benefit
of their building fund. This time
we have reasons to believe they
are dealing with reputable people
having closed a contract with the
Swain Aviation Co., touring in the
country in nine of their own ears,
with big capital back of them
to make good. FISm what we
are informed they have such men
with them as John Frisbee, known
the world over for his daring
feats. together with several Others
equally as good. This day in New
Iberia will be one long remember
ed and much credit is due the
members of that institution for
their determination in going after
Others after the disappointment
of several weeks ago.
Work on the Manse for the
use of the minister Of the Presby
terrain church is making much
Roadway, and the building will
soon be ready for the occupancy

completed the building will ado
much beauty to the surroundings
and the ladies of the church de
serve much credit for the success
which they have met in improving
the church property which they
hope to have paid for ere man,
months. Rev. Paradis, their be
loved pastor is constantly addlne
new members to his flock. which
attest the sincerity of his work
| in this City and should be Of much
consolation to him.
