THE PROPOSED EXPOSITION.

The Gazette has noted with ex.
treme interest the movement recent
ly inaugurated in New Orleans look
ing to the holding of five million
dollar exposition in that city to well
come the opening of the Panama
Canal.
1t is proposed to have an exposi-
ton different from any heretofore
held, with many new and unique
features, such as a prize of $4,000
for the greatest discovery or inven-
ton submitted to the exposition; a
miniature of Central America show
ing its fora and fauna; a pure food
exhibit; a lower-cost of living con-
gress; a special exhibition of i'm
proved agricultural methods as COM
pared with the old ones; and other
unusual and attractive features.
The exposition buildings will be
replicas of famous historic buildings
in New Orleans, illustrating the dis
tinctive features of the eighteenth
century New Orleans and further
local color will be added to the great
fair by the dramatization of Long
fellows "Evangeline" and it's pro-
duction on a grand scale and by the
reproduction of the Battle of New
Orleans, the one hundredth ami
versary of which will fall on Janu-
airy s, 1915.
The exposition movement is in
full swing in the city and there seems
to be every prospect that the great
scheme will be success. The coun-
try parishes of the State are very
loyal to New Orleans, taking a prop
err pride in her great and historic
past and the bright future in store
for the city when as the gateway to
the Panama Canal it should become
the center of a commerce second to
none enjoyed by any American city.
The city can rely on the sympathy
and support of the country in the
great work which it has undertaken.

WHITE NAN KILLED BY FREIGHT TRAIN

A most deplorable accident occurred
near st. Joseph last Monday night, about
1880 O'Clock, when white man named
w. g. Lischman was run over and killed
by the south-bound local freight.
Lischman was in the employ of the
Western Union as lineman on the tracks
Of the NJ, II. 4 L. road, his line extend
ing from Eudora, Ark. to Ferriday, La. !,
and had run down to st. Joseph on in
spection tour of the lines. While not def
nitely known, it is believed that the man
was drinking and asleep on his motor
car, which was stationary when struck
by the freight train as she rounded sharp
curve just above the depot. The freight
was several hours behind time and came
into st. Joseph considerably after dark,
and due to the sharpness of the curve and
the fact that the headlight of the loco
motive could not at this juncture follow
the rails it was impossible for the en-
gineer to see far ahead, and not until he
was very close upon the unfortunate VIC
tim was the latter discerned. Air breaks
were applied instantly but the engine
could not be stopped in time and struck
the motor car with such force as to lift it
from the rails and throw into ditch, the
unfortunately falling between
he rails, the engine and several cars pass
ng over his body. One leg was cut off
Ind the body badly mutilated, the head
however being spared.
The crew went at once to relief of the
'ictim and dragged his body from under
he wheels, but life was already extinct.
In inquest was held by the Coroner, DR..
{. G. Lilly, the verdict being that he

cen run over by train. The remains
ere shipped to his home at Eudora. De-
sased is survived by a wife and three
