FOR WHOM THE STREETS WERE
NAMED.

Dufrocq street was named as a
memoria! in honor of John R. Du-
frocq, at one time editor of the Bat
on Rouge Gazette and for several
terms mayor of this city,
Lewis street was named after Ira
vantion D. Lewis, popular young
citizen and native of this city who
as Colonel of the Eighth Louisiana
Infantry was killed while leading his
regiment in charge on the heights
Of Gettysburg.
Stuart street was so named in hon.
or Of Capt. j. D. Stuart, captain of
a local cavalry company who was
killed on the Plank Road some ten or
twelve miles above Baton Rouge
while attacking a force of the enemy
on its way to Port Hudson. At the
time of the breaking out of the war
he was district attorney, elected to
that position shortly after arriving of
age.
Leon Gusman killed while CARRYING
the flag of the Eighth Louisiana over
the Federal fortification at Winches-
ter, Va, is remembered by old resi-
dents whenever Leon street is men,
toned.
While DR.. Beauregard, an uncle of
the illustrious Confederate General of
that name, laid out and threw upon
the market all that portion of the
city below North Boulevard, not a
single street bears his name.
What was Carmeno Real during the
spanish occupation afterwards known
oy Americans as Spanish town road is
now Boyd avenue.
Uncle Sam street of former days is
now known by the more appropriate
as we'll as euphonious name College
avenue.
A name that should never be for
gotten was bestowed upon the street
ADJOINING the corporation line on the
east, that Of Allen. 1t was in that
ne'shborhood the gallant Henry Wat
Ains Allen while leading his brigade
OF Louisiana soldiers received the
wounds from which he subsequently
died.

and Opelousas railroad which brought
to Baton Rouge the trade and prod
ucts of large section Of rich and
fertile section. During that year the
Sumter, Verandah, Pixies Row, Nc
Cormick and other buildings appeared
on Third street and about the same
time Duncan, Mather and Hickey
threw the circus square upon the mar
ket when one or two rather small
houses appeared where the 1strouma
hotel now stands.
The Burke, Fisher and all other
buildings now strung along Third
street have been erected since the
Civil war and many of them within
the memory of the youngest inhablt-
ants.
1t is a great pleasure to those OF
the older generation to gaze upon
handsome buildings where they once
saw coffee weeds to the height of
ones head flourish in profusion and
to find a seven story with a ground
floor of one half block rising sky
ward where once they beheld empty
space. Tear down the shack at Third
and Convention, raise up the proposed
sky scraper and we Of earlier date
may then eXclaim "hnis.'

A WELL DESERVED TRIBUTE.
By Virginia Bransford.)

The has been so little written about
those faithful body servants of our
fathers those negroes, who through
the years Of the bloody conflict, which
tore our country apart, followed their
masters, with a devotion and loyalty
seldom found on earth, that to find a
monument to them is indeed rare.
There stands in the little progress
i've city of Canton, Mississippi, just
a few miles above the state capital,
a marble shaft dedicated to the body
servants Of the Harvey Scouts and
especially to the faithful servant of
William Howcott.
MIR. Howcott, whose home is in
New Orleans, and whose deeds of
generosity and charity are we'll known
in the South, erected this we'll de-
served tribute to this negro, and the
servants of his beloved company.
Standing in the center of a large
and beautiful square, surrounded by
heavy iron chains, and resting upon a
solid foundation, it lifts its head
proudly. No doubt had it the power
to speak, it would say in the words of
the Master:
ITO the least of these my
brethren"
Near by large tree stands spread
ing its branches near the shaft, and
here the southern mocking bird sings
a requiem to the faithful ones.

HELP INvALIDS TO FORGET
Presence Of a Canary or Goldfish In
the SIckroom Invariably Has
Beneficial Effect.

Next time you sit In room, the
furnishings Of which include bowl
Of goldfish, consider how much time
sou spend watching the small fish as
they swim slowly about or dart about
IN pursuit Of each other.
Probably you will conclude you
were INDUCING the usual tendency of
the normal person to be attracted to
moving objects. In sick persons and
convalescents this tendency is more
pronounced. and in the aged and very
young II IL still more SO.
That psychology of this attraction
was given by DR. Edward N. Leavy,
formerly veterinarian to the animals
in Central park zoo. He IL now con
nected with Fifth avenue pet store.
Sick persons lying in bed spend a
great deal of time watching the gold
fish II an aquarium is in their room, "

Coach McAvoy realizes that he has
a tough game ahead and TO defeat
p. NJ. c. every player has got to do
his best and be on his toes at all
times. The cadets have n score to
settle with Delaware because of the
defeat handed them last year and
they are getting In shape and pre-
pairing for this game all season. P.
NJ. c. counts it the most important
game OF their schedule.
In scrimmage yesterday afternoon
the varsity showed n better attack
than at any previous time this sea-
son. Several long forward passes were
worked successfully for touchdowns
against the scrubs. Ike" Elliott, the
speedy half back was not in the
scrimmage but will probably be in
shape To play against T. NJ, c. The
varsity line was the same that has
been used all season while the back
field was made up OF Cherpak, quar-
ter back; Mcdonald and Steel halG
