THE CLARION. OPELOUSAS, JUNE 20, 90o3. St. Landry Clarion Co., Lia., Props. RAYMOND BREAUX, Editor antUd EIu.siaeut Maaoagler. Subscription: S .oo Per Year In Advance. Zntered at the Post Omce at Opelousas, La., as second-cltss matter. Died At his residence on Wedlcnesday, June 17th, i!m:, at 5 p. i, o'clock, 1MEAItFE BREAUX, aged 2 years. Mr. Br;eaux was a young man of sterling qualities and exemplary habits, having creditably served in the capacity of clerk for several of the leading firms of our town namely Lassalle & Desmarais, Dietlein Grocery Co., Ltd, and Ar thur Fout6not, of north IMain street. The deceased was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Breaux, of Brous sardville, and a son-in-law of Mr. Michel Robin of this vicinity. He leaves a wife and 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls, to mourn his loss. The Clarion extends its sympathies to the bereaved in this their hour of sore affliction. -That our farmer friend is never entirely satisfied with the weather conditions every one will admit, but when it is stated by a few that he takes advantage of them to hang around town, we protest. It has been asserted by some that every time we have a little too much rain he makes a brake for the nearest burg and claims that he can't work for two weeks to come or more. and vice versa when the sun shines out for a few days that the ground is too hard; he can't plow until rain comes to his relief, etc. In fact, we heard one of the town boys make an assertion to the effect that he didn't believe the average farmer worked, at the highest calculation, a third of the year. Will any of our farmers tell us whether there is any foundation for these kind of statements or not ? -A number of criminal cases have been tried}so far in the Dis trict Court this week, and not the least important among them was that of the State vs.. Lee Williams and Wife, for the murder of a child by burning, the defense being rep resented by attorneys Jno. W. Lewis and Austin L.Fontenot, the last of whom made a masterly ef fort for the accused, considering the fact that it was his first, we learn, before a jury in a crimi nal case. They were convicted of manslaughter, the evidence being point-blank against them. -The "Perfect" Baking Powder is made of pure materials tested by competent chemists and will not cause indigestion. Try the brand named "Perfect. P. T. Blacksher& Son. On Sunday last a terrific cloud burst occurred at Heppner, Wash., in the valley of Willow Creek, drowning and killing from 500 to 600 persons. At last accounts over 200 bodies had been recovered, and. itis feared that over three times that number hate perished. The loss of property is estimated at $1,000,000. This sad catastrophe coming as it does so shortly after the Carolina one in which hun dreds of lives were lost and $6,000, 000 worth of property destroyed, is something alarming. Henry Waterson is opposed to either Bryan or Cleveland as i)enm ocratic candidates for the Presi dency, and says in substance, that if it will throw them off and "find some good man who has not been Smixed up offensively with the fac tion fighting, put him upon a plat form on which the masses of the party can unite under an agree ment that bygones shall be by gones, it will have a chance, but not otherwise."
