Washington and that the affidavit was
genuine
The signing Of the affidavit, Chief
Beavers said took place in room SOP
Of the Westoria Building. This is the
L. & n. Railroad Office building, and
room 500 is the private Office of J. A.
Ridgely. formerly OF Atlanta, and
personal friend of +. O. Miles, the
private detective who brought Cen

W NJ. ]. Davis. the only man in
Ridgely's office when the affidavit was
signed, said that two men and a wom-
an came in, One introduced himself
as Mr.. Miles, from Atlanta, Mr. Ridge
ly's friend. He did not state the iden-
tity of the others. Miles and his com
panions sent downstairs for Miss
Jeanette Henning, notary public,
who came up to room S02 and attest
ed an acknowledgment by the man
who accompanied Miles to the room.
Davis afterward gave a description

to Dodson's Liver Tone.

Every druggist in the State has
noticed a great falling off in the

"Calomel is often dangerous and

Dodson's Liver Tone Is person

Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas

MRS. McGEHE'S LECTURE.

Last Sunday afternoon as per
announcement and under the
auspices of their local organlza-
ton. the Socialists of our City
gave many Iberians an opportun-
lty to learn little about Social
ISM by having Mrs. McGehe, a
lady of refinement and education
and former candidate for the Of
fee of Attorney General in the
state of Colorado, to deliver a
ecture on that subject. The City
fall was secured for the occasion,
nut before the hour of meeting
t was plainly evident that the
audience was too large for the
eating capacity of the Hall, SO
hose assembled moved over to
he Court House square. Before
departing for the grounds OF the
Court House, Mr.. Julius N. Ber-
Grand, a young gentleman well
tersed in political economy, IN
reduced the speaker with few
appropriate remarks which
Drought down the house and con
vinced many that he also was
well posted. Mrs. McGehe is ono
of the ablest speakers of that
cause now touring the country.
She is lecturing at the request OF
the National organization and
Judging from her past experience
and the dates yet to be filled, she
is kept quite busy. Her audience
which was composed OF ladies
and gentlemen, was evidently SYM
pathetic, Judging from the atten-
ton given the lecturer, and in
number probably three hundred,
she kept their attention fully one
and half hours. All seemed to
be sorry when she closed her adj
dress, which was confined to
Government statistics, inter
spersed with humor which kept
the listeners in good spirits.
Child labor, woman suffrage, pro-
hibition, abolition Of war, etc,

but it is plain that there is dissat
isfaction among the toilers and
that they are looking for light,
much of which is offered by the
Socialists. The vote locally in
the last election was nearly fifty
and it is claimed that there are
nearly 300 champions Of that
cause here now. Mrs. McGehe
left here for Lafayette on Mon
day evening much inspired with
the reception given her by our
people and from there will again
visit the Northern portion of the
State.

THE TRAFFIC..

An astounding dramatic pro-
lection Of the truth about the
commerce in girls played by a
great company and staged with
lavish accuracy. Will exhibit at
the Elks Theatre, Thursday. Dec.
18th.
This remarkable play by
Rachael Marshall is so trmthfully
astonishing as to have evoked
both the wonder and the approx
al Of those who think that the
naked truth is what the people
want from the theatre as we as
from newspapers and the church
es. 1.-The Traffic" is such a play
and it il presented with every at
tention to fine and perfect set
ing, cosssaming and acting. It is
the most daring arraignment of
social and Industrial conditions
ever acted, and it is at the same
time a play Of intense and CON-
pelling human interest. This
play demonstrates that justice
and not charity is what women
want if they are to be saved from
the lust and traffic Of the under
world. Stripped Of all pretense
and innocent Of any SWIVEL or
salacity. The Traffic . shows

For an illustration "The Ros-
airy" takes you into the heart of
a typical American family. 1t
shows the peace and happiness
there, then suddenly unmasks the
canker spot-lack Of faith in the
husband. Slowly, little by little,
is seen this devastating power of
atheism; how it saps the strength
and melts the will, so that when
doubt and suspicion creep i'm they
find the soil fertile for their di-
rect descendants, hatred and
Revenge, and the home goes down
to ruin with crash. Then comes
the spiritual power of a great
man, priest, whose life is given
to mankind. Slowly by sheer
faith he analyses the situation
and leads the two forth, the hus-
band and wife whom he loves out
of the darkness Of their despair
to happiness and peace. At the
Elks Theatre, Tuesday, Dec ember
10Th.
That is "The Rosary" and the
discussions that will, follow its
production will do much to clear
the smoke of idle theories from
this tremendous quest which un-
dermines the happiness and we'll
being of every American home.

PROF. CARTER 8 LECTURE ON
THE POWER OF PERSON
Atty.

A rare intellectual treat was OIL
fered to New iberia S intelligence
last Monday evening at the Ma
sonic Hall by Prof. Carter, FRO
lessor of Greek of Vanderbilt
University, of Chattanooga, Tenn.
The promoters of the entertain
ment deserve the praise and
thanks of New Iberia s public.
The subject, Power of Personal
ity" was treated with ,eonsum-
mate skill by the Professor and
his diction and English were eX-
quisite in the delivery and the
treatment of the subject. Prof.
Carter must be great student
of human nature and the forces
and agencies that make the great
men and women of our ciylllza-
ton. He has thorough grasp
of the treatment of human chat
acter and faculties, especially as
to their possibilities of develop
ment and usefulness. According
to his philosophy or his philoso-
phical synthesis the greatest
power effecting the lives and the
general moving stream OF human
ity in every department OF art,
science, profession and commerce
is the power of personality; and
IL seems with the convincing IL
Illustrations resorted to make the
impression more vivid and pro-
found from our own standpoint
it seems to be not only true and
accurate, but from the stand
point of the best authorities on
sociology the only logical Sc
Quence of the restlessness of by
gone century and the betterment
of humanity. The philosophy is
not a new one. 1t enlisted the
attention of the greatest leaders
of thought in Europe many years
ago and evoked the interests OF
all scientific societies in every
center Of learning in the world.
A book written conformity by two
French authors, two brothers,
entitled the Personal Ego-treats
the subject from all angle points
Of view with the necessary elab-
Grafton and amplification Of all
the phases entering into the for
nation. of individual character
and soul. 500 III
The lecture Of Professor Car.
ter was pitched on the ground
of high ideals and the forty-fve
minute treatment that it received
at his hands was all too short for
the greatly interested and spell
bound audience. New Iberia
could well afford to organize
some literary society that would
continue the intellectual work so
auspicially inaugurated by those
select intellects that stood spon-
sor for this last treat. We hope
that next Tuesday our former
friend and townsman, F. s. Park
err will be received with the same
recognition and admiration with
which a new phase of life of in
tellect was opened in New. Iberia
last week.
