BASHFUL BOYS KISS COST
MRS. ACKERMAN DEARLY.
Broke Two of Her Ribs and an Arm
Struggling With Youngster.

The New York World tells how a
14-year-old boy during an intermis-
sion at barn dance held at New
Bridge, near Hackensack, N. j., be-
came SO interested in Mrs. Winfield
Alderman that he felt called upon to
tell her the story of his life.
In the recital he made the start
ling admission that he had never been
kissed. Thereupon Mrs. Alderman
asked him if he would allow her the
signal honor of making the initial in
scription on his facia slate. The boy
blushed and backed away.
Mrs. Alderman rose and repeated
her request. The youngster blushed
more furiously than before and ran
toward the door.
'I'll kiss you just for fun cried
Mrs. Alderman, starting after him,
while the other dancers, who had
switched their attention from the en-
tertainment to the incident, laughed
and shouted encouragement.
The boy, fear evident on his face,
ran upstairs and tried to hide him
self behind one of the supports. Mrs.
Alderman, pursuing, located him and
for a few minutes they lodged and
sped around the wooden column. The
boy finally sprang out into the open.
Mrs. Alderman caught him, but he
wriggled free and then dashed
around the room, with the young
woman keeping up the chase.
When she caught him the second
time Mrs. Alderman held him tightly.
He yelled and fought, seeking to
squirm from her grasp. This he con-
tinued while she backed him against
a double door. She was bending over
to kiss him when the door gave way
and the boy and Mrs. Alderman both
fell through to the ground, twenty
five feet below.
The fall had come so unexpectedly
to the young woman that she could
make no effort to save herself. She
suffered a broken arm, two broken
ribs and numerous painful bruises.
The boy escaped injury.
A physician was cal: led to attend
Mrs. Alderman. He found that her
injuries were so severe that he hur-
ried her to the Hackensack hospital.

DAWSON woMAN's CLUB.
Notes of Interest and Value to Oul
Feminine Readers.

The Craze for Bargains.-The
craze among women for bargains has
called forth a cheaper grade of goods
that oftentimes deceives even the ex-
perienced purchaser. 1t is said that
old wooden rags can be gathered up
and put through a process and made
into goods again that can scarcely
be told from the new goods, so the
textile law is to require the manu-
facturer to label his goods what they
really are; so if we buy bargain pric-
ed goods we will know it.

All Parties Like the Chronicle.

There is no occasion for any
one to be surprised because the
Chronicle is regarded as the best
home paper among the Socialists
OF Grant parish. The Chronicle
circulates freely among the So
cialists and all the people of Grant
parish. The Socialists know the
Chronicle to be a readable and
reliable Democratic newspaper,
free from sham and imposture,
and they like it, and some of their
leaders boost it, because they
know it to be fair, open and
above board in its criticisms, and
without any pretended leaning
to their party. The Republicans
also like it, because they like the
consistency of an open foe, and
they expect nothing but opposi-
ton from a Democratic journal.
The Democrats all like it as a
matter of course, because they
know from long experience that
the Chronicle is the true and
tried friend of all the people of
the parish under any and all
circumstances.

Saloons and Slaves.

The saloon business can not exist
without slaves. You may smile at that
statement, but it is absolutely true.
Is not the man who is addicted to the
drink habit slave? There can be NO
question about it. There are /, ZOO, OOO
such slaves in the United States. They
are slaves of the saloon. They 90 out
and work week or a month, draw their
pay, go into a saloon and hand the
saloon keeper their money for some
thing which ruins their own lives. Is
not this slavery? Has there ever been
in the history of the world a worse
system of slavery? Think of 1, ZOO, 600
men enslaved by the liquor habit, car
rying their earnings to the saloon keep
ers every day in the year. 1t is quite
natural, of course, that the slave-hold-
er should not care to liberate> these
slaves. = Congressman Hobson.

voters in Acadia were disqualified from
voting. Two bills came us to this
Legislature, one by w. A. McClelland,
of Acadia, the other by E. A. Edwards,
of Evangeline. The McClelland bill
would open the grand father clause per-
petually six months out of every year.
The Edwards resolution only reopens
the provision until Sept. / of next
year. The Edwards resolution is the
one reported favorably.

necessity of maintaining the
school at its present high stand

means to raise S., 600, and if pos

buildings and equipments. A

has been proposed, and while the
interest of the community is
aroused over its success is a fine
time to hold it. Let us hear
from our citizens as to the best
time and place to hold a mass
meeting for this purpose.

Hall Has Vacated Supreme Court by
Qualifying as Governor.

Governor L. E. Hall has vacat-
ed his right to the Supreme Court
of the State by taking the oath
as governor, and he now has
nothing to resign. No further
action on his part is necessary.
There will be a vacancy to be fill
ed on the bench with the expira-
ton of Justice A. d. Lands
term, as though Judge Hall had
never come into the matter.
That is the legal status of the
Supreme Court judgeship, &C.
cording to legal authorities.
1t will be up to Governor Hall
to order an election in that Su-
preme Court district. The Dem
ocratic State central committee
will call a primary at the same
time the congressional primaries
are held this fall, and the cleo
ton will take place at the same
time as the congressional cleo
ton.
There is now a promise of a
lively contest for the Land sac
cession. He will be opposed by
Judge Lynn Watkins, of Minden,
and possibly others. Indications
are now that it will be a pretty
serious contest. Justice Land
will continue to hold on until his
successor is elected. 1t is not
deemed necessary to involve the
district in special primary and
special election, with all the extra
cost, when the congressional
elections are so near at hand.

of the wealth and population of

words, that city has piled up in
