TREVILLE SEGURA SUCCESS
SION.

The celebrated ease involving
about $50, 900 worth Of real estate
on the outskirts of this City
known as the Treville Segura
succession was decided by the
Supreme Court this week, de-
cision being rendered in favor of
the heirs which had been legiti-
mitized by the deceased. Messrs.
John K. Davis, l.. T. Dulany and
V. }. Smith represented the heirs
of Treville Segura, while the
plaintiffs were represented by the
law firm of Cammack 4 Brous-
sard. We understand the plain
tiffs will ask for rehearing.
The decision was as follows:
"A white man may acknOwl-
edge and legitimate children who
are born to his eolored concubine,
although Act No. 81 of 1894, D.
63, prohibits the marriage be-
tween white persons and persons
of color"
"The deposition of witness
must be reduced to writing by
him, the justice or an Indifferent
person. 1t is inadmissible in the
handwriting of the party to the
suit, or of his counsel"
The failure Of a notary to re-
new his bond will not affect the
Of acts passed by him,
when such notary has been a
notary for many years, and is
known as such in the community, |
vas another decision.
Where the preponderance Of
evidence shows that the deceased
vas in possession of all his facil-
ties at the time of the making of
IN instrument, that instrument
will be held valid and binding, al.
hough other evidence goes to
how that deceased may at times
lave suffered from segile de
aentia.' was the gist of another

that they did not desire its loca-

was not the case. we had been
requested to attend the meeting
and express our sentiments, be
cause it was known that we never
favored the donation on the part
Of the Commissioners, when the
City Of New iberia was indebted
TO the School Board a far greater
amount than was asked for by

the City's finances were exhaust

by stating to the audience that

felt kindly to the negro and was
not opposed to the Southern
University, calling attention to
the fact that some years ago we
had made a donation for wing
to the Howe Institute, place Of
learning for the colored race.

the Council would submit the
question of making a donation
to the people by vote, the Com

amount should be raised by pub

STRIKERS BACK AT WORK.

The citizens of this entire see
ton We're made happy last Mon
day afternoon when word reached
here to the effect that a com
promise had been effected with
the unions who had completely
tied up the Southern Pacific in
terests from New Orleans to E'
Paso, Texas, when nearly 1000
employees had positively refused
to turn a wheel. Not until the
strike, did our people realize what
this great transportation system
means to this country, especially
at time when it was of import
ance to move the perishable cane
crop to the mills. When most Of
the local strikers employed here
abouts realized the apparent dan
ger of an early freeze, which
meant so much TO our farmers.
they expressed a willingness to
mann the cane ears, if an arrange
ment could be made with the
Railroad Company by which the
planters would have charge of
them, we felt assured they would
realize the Importance Of helping
to save from destruction the
products of this country, if it was
put to them in the proper light,
as they are as much interested in
the welfare of our lands as any
other citizens, most of them being
native born and citizens of the
highest type living in this com
munity. The hope is enter
tained that there will be no furth-
er breech between the unions and
their employers and that the
same cordial relations will pre-
dominate as heretofore. The
Company on the other hand de.
serve much praise from our peo-
pie for receeding from the posi-
ton they had taken which
brought on the walk out.

A typical California celebration such
as the Portola should be supported by
every Californian. Stanford track
men will start light training at once
for both track and field events
'Stanford's strength on the track
this year is an unsettled problem as
yet. Some of the new material looks
good, but we can't tell for sure what
they will be able to do until we see
them in action.

Among the track athletes entering
