Today at noon the thermometer at

some relief from the piercing heat.
There was one IRE alarm yesterday.
In the afternoon a pile of rubbish on
a vacant lot between Fourteenth and
Fifteenth streets on Franklin street,
burst into flames from combustion,
caused by the heat The department

HALLET. La, July 17.--All citi.
zens in Opelousas parish today were
going about armed, searching for
Bandit Hiliaire Carriere, who last
night shot and killed Sheriff Swords
and two negroes near here.
Carriere who had a record OF kill
ing seven men before he killed the
trio last night, was being taken to the
penitentiary by Swords. Carriere
made his third escape recently. The
murderer shot his way free last night
when the sheriff marched him through
a lonely section OF the parish.
Governor Pleasant has been asked
for state troops. With the entire
state guard modified at Camp Alex
andria. It was thought likely a small
detachment would be ordered out this
afternoon
