Proposed Constitutional Amendment

In the District Court OF Concordia
parish, Judge John Dale presiding, the
jury that heard the case Of the State VS.
Philip Pierce, on Wednesday, charged
with shooting and killing DIR. p. L. Bel
lenger some time last year, acquitted the
defendent without leaving the jury box.
Before the trial the District Attorney
wanted to enter a nolle pros. in the case,
but Mr.. Pierce, knowing the homicide
was justifable, insisted upon a trial, as
he desired to be fully indicated and ex-
onerated in the premises.
1t is not often that in case of such
great gravity that defendendent viii in
sist upon full trial unless he is fully
confident that his act was iustifable,
which seems to have been the fact in
this case.-Concordia Sentinel.

TRADITION

TRADITION, it is said, occasionally
hands down the practical Arts with more
precision and fidelity than they can be
transmitted by book from generation to
generation, Webster.
TRADITION is a hard obstacle for
some people to overcome.
Because an establishment, handling
JEWELRY, DIAMONDS, GOLD and
SILVER WARE, Etc, has always en-
deavored to dazzle the passersby with
brilliant array OF valuable articles, this
TRADITION is almost insurmountable
to the Jewelry Merchant.
This tradition we bow to. We recog-
nize it. We are just completing front
to our house, No. 13l North Commerce
street, in which we believe our pride is
excusable.
But there is another TRADITION,
which we feel should be east aside and
that DOCTRINE is the supposition that
exists in the minds of some that when a
Diamond or other valuable stone, or
Watch or other Jewelry is to be pur-
chased because some other firm ''of the
old SCHOOL, has previously served you,
that goods Of equal merit cannot be Sc
cured from younger and more up-to-date
dealers.
Our store is accessible to ALL-very
conveniently located-but situated 50 that
we do not feel obliged to add even a
widows Mite' in figuring our profit,
in order to pay larAe rental for our
building. Nevertheless, every article pur-
chased of us is guaranteed exactly as
represented-and that guarantee is backed
up in such manner as to satisfy the most
exacting. Try Us once and If we cannot
demonstrate to you that we can UNDER
sell others, giving you identical value,
then we won't expect q second visit
BUT WE ARE CONFIDENT.
Now, there is an impression prevalent
among certain people that our Jewelry
stock is an adjunct to our Loan Depart
ment. We, as our name implies, con-
duct loan business, but it is q separate
and distinct department from our bust
ness as Jewellers; and it lie because
we are enabled, because of unredeemed
pledges at times, to offer some most MS
tonishing bargains to our trade, that we
believe it to our interest and yours to
continue the TWO DISTINCTLY SEPA-
RATE DEPARTMENTS.
Come in: inspect our stock investigate
'us-if satisfied with our merchandise,
/ and standing, then let us figure with you
on your wants. We know we can salts
fy you.

Some time ago man named Rerges

as they proved their innocence they
were released and the matter was
shelved. A few days afterward a man
called at the office of the local police
commissary and said to that official:

Berges, and this is how did IT,"
The commissary listened to the
mans confession and said:
"You had better see my secretary"
The secretary also listened TO the
mans confession and after a little re-
Election said:
NOW, look here. my good man: this
Is not the way to get arrested. You
must write us letter confirming the
oral statement made TO US. Then we
shall be able TO attend to you. Now,

The Gentle Sex.

An eminent English statistician has
calculated that OF two children. boy
and a girl. born on the same day the
boy will have only seventeen chances
against eleven of living one year. while
the girl will have twenty-one chances
against eleven. From five to fifteen
there appears to be but little difference,
but from fifteen to nineteen the boy
will have 269 chances and the girl 277
chances OF living against one of death.
If a thousand ablebodied men and a
thousand ablebodied women be armed
and equipped for battle and ordered on
n long, weary march more men, says
this authority. would probably reach
their destination. while more women
would be found exhausted. out more
men would be found dead by the way
