population as OF June /. 1910,
Number OF judges as Of January /,
1912.
1t should be mentioned that While
South Carolina has n high proper
ton Of population to its twelve judges,
yet as its constitution provides for the
appointment Of special judges to hold
courts, the proportion is greatly les
sened in practical operation.
In North Carolina the number Of
judges has not been increased since
1901, when four were added, but the
North Carolina Bar Association is now
advocating an increase TO twenty
four, while some urge that the num-
Der be placed at thirty-two. This last
number would provide n Judge for
each 68,e47 persons, which proper
ton would still be higher than that Of
fo~rty-One other States.
The average population to each
trial judge being 52.29o, it is interest
ing to note thai within a variation Of
% per cent above and below that pro-
portion (namely, between 39.225 and
$500, Will be found twenty-four Of

teen a lesser proportion. AS the pop

y per cent in the decade 1906 to

will raise the average to 54,511. or
practically one trial judge for each

near the proportion existing in the

brief illness, and the news of his death
was received with universal sorrow by
all who knew the family.
BY the death of so sterling citi-
zen Hancock county loses one of it's
most valued residents, man who was
an integral part of the highest type OF
citizenry and whose demise is dis
tinct loss.
He came to this county October 20,
1873, from his native heath, and, COM
ing to the home of his uncle, Charles
Campbell, at Campbell Island, near
Baldwin, at Pearl river, he made that
place his home ever since and became
identified with that section of the
county. Of a strong personality and
marked individuality, he was we'll and
fayorably known, a man of promi-
neRce and influence.
Born at Killean, Argyleshire, Scot
land, March %, 1887. Charles Camp
bell was rs years of age at the time
of his death and had been resident
of Hancock county for nearly 40 years.
He was a son of Alexander Camp
bell and Mary Gilchrist. On June 6,
1871, he was married to Jessie Gordon,
and to this union twelve children were
born-six sons and six daughters, of
whom three sons and six daughters
survive him.
The funeral took place on the after
noon of April 5, 2 p. NJ, and was
conducted by Rev. Henry Mcdowell,
of the Presbyterian church at Pass
Christian, who delivered beautiful
eulogy at the home.
He was laid to rest beside his wife
(who preceded him to the grave by
several years., surrounded by a large
crowd of sorrowing friends.
The pallbearers were Messrs. A. S..
Weston, d. r. Weston, John Connor,
Oscar Green, John Zengarling and
Carl Marshall.
Thus all that was mortal of SO splen-
did man was laid sat rest'', and the
world was the better for such a man
having lived.

DAVID W. B0NTEMPs.

David w. Bontemps, native of New
Orleans, aged 65 years, died in this city
at an early hour Tuesday morning, sur
rounded by his loved ones.
Mr.. Bontemps had not been in the
best health for some time past, yet the
end was not SO soon expected, and the
news of his death was a surprise to the
community.
The demise of David Bontemps re-
moves from this community one of its
oldest and most respected citizens, a
man who had reared large and honor
able family, one who was of quiet and
unassuming character, always identi-
fed with all that stood for perfect
peace, resignation and bIessedness. He
was ever ready to succor the sick and
dying; man who lived within the
bosom of home and family, and, when
his sainted wife was called away to
higher sphere some few months since,
her absence from the home crushed his

TUCEI-PARRILLA

Mr.. Jos. V. Tucei and Miss Nancy
Parilla stole march On their friends
Monday night, April 8, 1912, when they
were quietly married at the church OF
Our Lady of the Gulf, Rev. ]. M. Prem
dergast officiating. The attendants
were Messrs. Chas. Henry, the groom IS
former business partner, and Mr.. Geo.
Planchet. Mr.. Tucei had procured the
license on the 9th, the Saturday before,
and carried it in his pocket for three
long mortal days. However, Monday
offered splendid occasion, when he
and the then Miss Parilla left home, os-
tensibly to attend ball and entertain
ment given at one of the local halls.
There was not the slightest suspicion
of their intent noticeable. However,
they did attend the ball-later, after
the marriage ceremony had been per-
formed. No bans published, it was
necessary to secure a dispensation.
The young people, SO we'll known,
had no trouble in securing the desired
permission, which waiver was granted
on telephone application to Very Rev.
Father Alphonse Kettles, at Biloxi.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs. Tue Ell
wended their way to the ball, where
naught was said until some time later,
when the blushing bride whispered to
her sister, "Joe and I are married..
To make sure, the statement was re-
peated and then re-itera ted. The in
terestlng bit of news, SO romantic and
fresh, could not be kept and went around
the hall from mouth to mouth with the
proverbial lightning rapidity. Good
wishes and heartiest felici tations were
in order, and the attendants of the ball
and entertainment enjoyed number

The bride Is a daugh ter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Parilla, well-known and
long residents of this city, while the
groom is young business man of this
city, formerly of Biloxi, where his father
B. Tucei, is well-known business man
and extensive property owner. There
was no parental objection to the mar
riage on either side of the contracting
parties, but they thought they would
simply ''get married" and surprise
their friends, in which intention they
succeeded perfectly. Long life and best
wishes,

BANDERET-PERRE

4 A beautiful church wedding was SOL
emnized Wednesday morning, April TO-
/ 1912, at 6 o'clock, at the church of Our
Lady of the Gulf, at nuptial mass
when Miss Zoe Perre and Mr.. Charles
Banderet entered into the contract OF
holy wedlock, Rev. Father j. M. Prem
dergast officiating.
The bride, in the beauty of her youth
and on the very threshold of woman
hood, looked radiant, attired in rich
creation of white lingerie, with large
white picture hat, gloves and shoes to
match. She was attended by her girl
friend, Miss Lena Parilla, as brides
maid, while the brides brother, Mr..
Anthony Perre, acted in the happy ca
pacity of best man.
The ceremony was as beautiful and
impressive as nuptial mass could make
it. Only the family and number OF
close friends of the contracting parties
were present, adding by their presence
and good will to the auspiciousness of
the happy occasion and witnessing
within the sacred precincts of the good
house the blessed union of two young
hearts with faces turned towards the
future, for better or worse, until death
do them part.
After the ceremony the bridal party
repaired to the residence of the brides
father, in Main street, where the we'd
ding breakfast was partaken of and the
day spent.
The bride is a daughter of H. A.
Perre, the pioneer baker of Bay ST.
Louis and one of the best-known resi-
dents of this city, and of the late Mrs.
Marie Tomasich Perre. The groom is
popularity known, an estimable young
man, with a genial, sunshiny DISPOSE
ton, and a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred.
Banderet, and who is also well-kn own
and prominent citizen.
Mr.. and Mrs. Banderet will make Bay
ST. Louis their home and be at home to
their friends in ST. John street. Con-

On Easter Sunday the fast baseball
team of the college iourneyed to Pasca-
goula, Miss, to play the team of that
place. The game was called at p. M,
and every player went into the game
with his whole heart. The S. S. boys
took the lead early in the third inning
with two down, and held it throughout
the game. The last half of the 9th in
ming was played in rain, not heavy, but
heavy enough to allow the Pascagoula
team to score its only run. With three
men on bases and one run, the grand
stand thought that the game was al
ready won, but the excellent pitching
of Beaullieu closed the battle in our
favor, the score being two to one. We
were treated very nicely by the people
of that little burg, and every player ex-
tends his gratitude to them.
Among those who visited New Or
leans during the last week are the fol-
lowing: Lepine, Wiegand, Lescale,
Beaullieu, Richard, Fagot, Songy, Aba
