Auction at the present values has been
played sufficiently long to determine the
best theories Of bidding and play. The
fact that the correct bidding of hands is
the most important feature Of the game
is now recognized by all the leading play
ers. and is considered Of even more value
to successful team work than excellence
in the playoff. The player who now has
the temerity to advocate the penalty or
luck theory-that is, making bids that
are clearly unwarranted by the cards for
the purpose Of either staying in the game
or OF preventing the adversaries from
scoring below the line. hoping to catch a
good hand on the next deals Stunned
as a dangerous teammate.
There is only one situation in the game
that justifies an overbid. and that is when
the opponents will in all probability go
game and rubber at their declaration. 1t
is then reasonable 10 try for declaration
that, even If unsuccessful. will still keep
one in the game. provided the penalty
against the declarant is not in excess of
the ESQ points bonus for winning the
rubber Any other overbid is without
warrant, unskilful and poor auction.

REASON SHOULD RULE.

Results and double dummy play do not
always demonstrate proper play founded
on logical deduction and good reasoning.
Many a play goes wrong that is dictated
by good judgment, but the same character
of play wins by large percentage in the
long run. If ever game was invented
that demands logical deduction auction is
at"
The following hand, played last week
at local club. illustrates the point. The
hand is not Of unusual type, but only
points the use OF thought in common
holdings.

1t has truly been said, In
Maud Powell is the power and the
fascination of an almost disem-
bodied artistry. There is the
music, the violin and the trans
porting pleasure" Perhaps the
thing that makes this most posi-
BILE is her freedom from any sort
of mannerisms. She is not
violinist doing stunts" for an adj
miring audience. but she is musl-
clan rhapsodizing in the pure ex-
FILTRATION of the mastery of her
instrument as mood and fancy
come changefully to her and to
flow out like rapturous exhillration
to her hearers. Her tone IS beau
tiful. But perhaps we should not
say her tone. for she has not one
tone. but many, and always the
tone that the distinguishing traits
of the particular music bid. 1t is
of clear and glintlng brilliancy; of
sonorous depth; breadth and elo-
quence: of sunny vivaeity; of light
and flowing charm; of feathery
lightness; of songful intensity.
She plays with the strength and
authority that is usually peculiar
to masculine violin players and
combined with this there is all the
delicacy and tenderness of a very
womanly woman. She seems to
know no limitation. Like the old
masters, she loses sight and
thought of everything but her
violin. Not only does she under
stand, but she manitests an entire
sympathy and accord with the
thought expressed in the selection
rendered. She has been unremit-
ting in ner toll and effort for
perfection. Even after applaud
ing audiences haYe said "perfec-

Anxious to do Good Service.

The press dispatches a few days
ago announced that Congressman
j. B. Aswell of the eighth Louisi-
ana district, who was for many
years engaged in educational work
and who served as superintendent
of the state educational depart
ment in Louisiana, was being con-
sidered for the position of superin-
tendent of the schools at the ma
tional capital.
CONGRESSMAN Aswell declined.
of course, to consider the matter,
declaring: Il have no interest in
this or any other position except
to remain in congress. where my
short experience convinces me |
can in future do some good. and
one in which his splendid abilities
as an educator would have been
thoroughly appreciated.
This is spoken like the same
Aswell who declined a few years
ago to give UP his work for LOU
isiana, which paid him $4,000 a
year, to accept the chancellorshir
of the University of Mississippi, a
much better paying job and one in
which his splendid abilities as an
educator would have been thor.
oughly appreciated.
DR.. Aswell Is certainly making
good in congress; though his term
of service has been short, he has
already made name for himself
and brought credit TO the Louisl.
ana delegation. Incidentally, he
has done good service for his own
particular district, and we have nc
sort of doubt that his constituents
appreciate it and will show their
appreciation by keeping him in
congress as long as possible.

A Cemetery Association.

A movement has been started
by the Lesche for the organization
of a Cemetery Association, a move
ment that should and no doubt
will have spontaneous growth.
Through all these long years, this
is the thing that has been needed as
the condition with one exception OF
the silent cities of the dead in
Natchitoches, is one that reflects
sadly upon its citizenship.
A small appropriation is made
each year by the city for the pur-
pose of weed cutting that the
Lesche Committee uses to Its
greatest advantage, but it is but q
crop in the bucket, compared TO
its needs.
Our Jewish citizens organized
an Association a few years ago,
and by the payment of a certain
amount each year, a sexton is en-
ployed by the month who keeps
this sacred place in good condition
while each family either employs
the sexton or personally sees after
keeping their own enclosure in
order. A beautiful hedge sur
rounds the cemetery, shubbery
and flowers beautify it and it is
kept as all such places should be.
There is no more beautiful OF
historical spot to be founo
than the old American or the
French cemeteries and they should
be kept accordingly.
If each family that has some
loved one buried therein would
pay even the small amount Oh
50. 90 a year, some reliable person
could be engaged to keep it in or
der all the year around and Their
it could be kept as it should be
this place sanctified by our dead.
Can't this movement be of spon
taneous and immediate growth as
it is one that has been long need
ed and sadly neglected, and now
that the Lesche has taken thu
initiative and suggested it, thu
Club would be pleased and graft
fed to have any public spirited
and interested person call a regu
lar mass meeting and organize

The present, besides being the
world era Of electricity for mech
anical purposes. is also the age of
chemistry, the magic transformer
of common substances into articles
of great value and universal use.
It is the alchemy that, if 1t does
not actually and literally change
base metals into gold, at least
gives them gold value.
And for this purpose our South
erm States are more rightly en-
dowed than any other part of the
continent. We have here in Lou
isiana petroleum which, under the
skill of the chemist. furnishes a
vast number of most important
medicines and dyestuffs. The salt
and sulphur OF Louisiana are the
materials from which acids, bleach
ing powder and various other in
dispensable articles are made,
In addition, the South has all
the metals, including gold, but
iron, lead and zinc are in the
greatest abundance. Of the nom
metallic substances besides coal,
petroleum, salt and sulphur are
asbestos, barytes. clay, graphite,
gypsum, lime, mica, feldspar,
phosphates, quartz, soapstone. tale,
ocnre, faller's earth, pyrltes and
others.
The Manufacturers Record men,
tons in this connection that In the
agricultural field the phosphate
rocks and marls and animal wastes
are being worked up into fertili.
zers, and there is ground for the
belief that chemical engineering
will soon make possible the manu-,
facture OF q fertilizer containing
American potash from Southern
feldspar instead of imported potash
from Germany. The ccttonseed
oil, turpentine, alcohol and similar
industries call for the construction
and operation of extraction plants,
distilleries, refneries and other
establishments for obtaining their
valuable constituents.
Some OF these important re-
sources are being developed, but
not to the extent that their impor'
lance calls for and the immense
profits they could be made to pay.
1t is worth while that they should
be called most prominently to
public attention. Country Re

out and build them. They NAV
not be the best roads, but build
roads. If the roads are not so
good as would be anticipated at
first, they will improve it public
opinion supports the movement.
1t is not the automobile which is
going to build the road. 1t is the
State, the county and the farmer.
There is a growing demand for
good roads. The railway systems
of the country are not discourag-
ing such improvements. The rail-
roads appreciate the advantage
that good roads bring to their
system of tracks.
Good roads are essential to the
agricultural interests of any coun-
trv. They count for far more
than the pen of the average pa
per can explain. The fact is that
no men who have the country at
heart who have an abiding faith
in the country's future, will not
take a chance. They know the
possible results. Good roads are
essential to the welfare of any
country. The South is the great
agricultural possibility for any
man who wishes TO invest and
who hopes to acquire eventual
possessions, but the man who en-
tiers this field must do so with the
understanding that good roads are
essential.-Bienvllle Democrat.

Especial to the Newark start

PATTERSON, N. J., June 30.-One
of the Jerseyites implicated by Col
onel Mulhalrs statement in regard to
the fight in 1910 against Senator Will
lam Hughes when the latter was run
ming for Congress, is Stephen Wood
McClave,. who has filed a petition as
a Republican candidate for the pri-
mary nomination for Congress for the
election to be held next month to fill
the place of the late Congressman
Lewis J. Martin.
Mr.. McClave was the Republican
candidate against Mr.. Hughes in the
Sixth district. and Colonel Mulhall
declares that $4,000 was used by the
association to try to elect Mr.. Nc
Clave. The colonel states that 1t was
put up to him to do anything he
could to defeat Hughes, although he
also says Mr. McClave was "a very
weak candidate
Mulhall states that Mr.. Hughes
would have been beaten that year
|if it had not been for the candidacy
of Woodrow Wilson for Governor of
New Jersey. The colonel claims the
manufacturers took 1900 votes away
from Hughes in his district.
Mr. McClave referred to Colonel
Mulhall as "bunco steerer."
