SHERIFF HAS ALL FIVE.

Lafayette, La, April 23,-Sher-
if LacOste stated this evening
that he now has all five of the
negroes implicated in the killing
of the Andrus family of five, IN
February, 1911. All are in the
parish jail except one, and this
one has been arrested, and will
be brought to Lafayette tomor-
row. Raymond Bernabet, con-
victed last October of the crime,
is still held, having obtained a
new trial.
Ute Thomas, who was lmpll-
Gated by young Bernabet, was ar
rested a few days ago at Eunice
and brought here. Here says he
knows nothing.o of the crime. This
morning, however, a number OF
negroes were gathered in the bull
pen at the Jail, and the boy Zephe-
rim picked Thomas out OF the
bunch, saying he was the man
who assisted in the murder.
Clementine always has con-
tended that there were five who
slaughtered the Andrus family,
and, according to the voodoo
charm of the talisman, five was
to be the number Of victims at
each slaughter in pursuance OF
the fulfillment of the secret oath
taken on the Bible by the murde-
rous consiprators. AS soon as
the fifth negro is brought here.
Sheriff Lacoste intends to con-
front them with each other and
to attempt to get at the real truth
of the case.
AS matters now stand, old Ray
mond Bernabet, his son and
daughter, Clementine and Zephe-
rim, Duce, or Irene Ute Thomas
and a fifth negro are held for
the Andrus family, but
there has been so much contradic-
ton, if not perjury, in the case,
that it is hard to say just what
will be the outcome. The evil
dence against Clementine is con-
sidered strong enough to secure
her conviction, even outside of
her own confession, but it can
not be said what facts may be adj
duced to implicate any one else.

LOOK AFTER THE HORSES
SHOULDERS.

In beginning the hard spring
work look carefully to the shoul-
der of the work stock. This es.
pecially applies to the young ami
mails, or those that have been idle
during the winter. A horse or
mule with a sore shoulder will
not do as much work as he would
with sound shoulders, and be-
sides, to work horse with sore
shoulder is cruel and has bad
effect on the man who is CON-
PEELED to do it.
In the first place, see that the
surface of the collar is firm,
smooth and clean. A cheap col
lar will not maintain a firm,
even, smooth surface and collar
that will not do that is in the end
expensive at any price. The col
lar should also be reasonably
broad so as to distribute as much
as practicable the pull on the
shoulder. Next, see that the col
lar fits, it must be neither too
large nor too small; but this IS
not all, it should be fitted to the
neck. A neck thin at the top
should not have wide collar at
that place and a thick neck
should not be pinched by mar
row collar. The draft should
come at the proper point on the
shoulder. If too low, the shout
der is apt to get sore and if too
high the top Of the neck is likely
to suffer.
If for any reason an animal
does not walk up straight into
the collar the shoulders are apt
TO suffer. This frequently oc,
ours with young animals and un-
less care is exercised a bruised
shoulder is likely to result.
When work starts in the spring,
If the weather is warm,
keep the collars clean. At the
noon hour and at night wash, the
off in cold water and
rub the water off with coarse
10th.
A good mixture to tougher the

TIE preservation Of the home
trade to the home t6wir carries
with it the preservation Of many
of our American institutions.
1t seems to- me that a lot of
good things in American life will
pass if the country town passes.
And it will pass just as surely as
Capitalization of retail mail or
der business in cities continues.
The American country town,
, the town Of from one hundred to
one hundred thousand people,
preserves BETTER than the crowd
J ed city and better than the lone
lily ranch and isolated farm life,
the things that make America
great.
Here in these country towns the
spirit of neighborliness is the
prevailing spirit. Mem come to
know one another and when any
two human beings come to know
one another, in the one who is
intelligent and wise expect al
ways rises for the other. To know
ones fellows always is to sympa-
thi1e with them. Neighborliness
spells fraternity.
The American country town,
with its broad circle of friend
ships, with its close homely simple
relations between men, with it's
spirit of cooperation and with
its economic status that permits
the creation Of no indecently rich
and no abjectly poor, the Ameri-
can country town, it seems to
me, is the most hopeful of eur
American institutions.
To destroy that town, furnish
ing the market for the farmer and
giving steady employment to la
Dor, means reorganization Of
our commercial, social and indus
trial life that will be- revolution
ary-and more q matter of doubt
ful value.
The mail order house therefore
becomes a menace to this country.
The mail order house unrestricted
will kill our smaller towns, Gre
ating great cities with their ter
rible contrasts Of life, with Their
cruel social relations. with their
inevitable caste feeling that come
from the presence Of strangers
who are rich and poor living side
by side.
Friendship, neighborliness, fra
ternity Or whatever you will call /
that spirit of comradery that
comes when men know one anoth-
er well is the cement that holds
together this Union Of the States. ,
It is not created in great cities. /
Great cities give much in aims,
but little in justice. Only as we
know each other well can we
il eat each other justly; and the i
,ity is a wilderness Of careless
strangers whose instincts of hui
nanity are daily becoming more
md more blunted to suffering,
because in the nature Of things ]
suffering in cities must be imper-
'onal, to suffering, because in the

of my case was made by order of the
Department Of Justice at Washington.
My innocence was established and
regained my freedom
Kruger was convicted on the
charge of using the mails for improper
purposes.
