Willie Lafore's Jukrder. DETAILS OF THE LUMBEP CAMP TRA GEDY ON BAYOU PIGEON. The details of the murder of Willie G. Lefore, in a lumber camp, on Bayou Pigeon last Sun day, are just to hand, and are gi ven by Louis Phillips, ku eye-wit nI.ss to the whole affair and one of the men who recovered the dead iman's body from the whters of the ,bayou. Phillips states that Lefore and a white man nameJ Napoleon quarreled on Saturday about the cutting of a tree. 4Vhen Thee. Flynn, the foreman, toturned the next day (Sunday) he discharged Lefore and ordered him to get out of camp as quickly as possi ble. Lefore charged Napoleon with having conspired toward his dischatge dihd the 'tVt quarreled violently. Nopoleoh broached for a revolver when Lefore drew his weapon and shot under the 'table at Napoleon. Several shots were exchanged, and the white man was badly waotnded in 'the face and neck. Lefore retreated when the chambers 'of his revolver were emnpty. Mal Flynn opened fire on him as he ran and shot him in the hack. Lefore jumped in the ba you and was swimming acroes when Tom Flynn picked up a Winchester rifle and shot fim squarely in the back of the hea8- his body sinking at once. Tom Flywn then turned his gun on Avstin Altemus, who was bdhind a 'tree, and fired several shdts at 'him, which were without effect. John McChesney pleaded for the life of Altemus dnd Flynn finally relented and'coeabd firing. Alte imus, Preston iHdl and Phillips recovered Lefore's body from the water and brought it to his moth er's home on Bayou Plaquemine. Before they left'camp the Flyirns htd started with Napoleon for Neer tkeria. He was badly woun ded a'fd it was thought that he would 'rdie.

European countries impose a heavy tax on sugar consumed at home in 'order to raise the $25,000, 000 they pay annually in subsidies to promote their exp~t trade in sugar. This and prohibitive tariffs account for the high prices abroad. But our plan of countervailidg du ties equal to foreign export boun ties neutralizes the advantage here tofore enjoyed in this market by export bounty sugars. By this artificial stimulus, aided by science to a degree that is a wonder and delight, Europe has nearly dou bled her beet-sugar prodact since 1880, until it is now about 5,000, 000 long tons annually. The world's cane-sugar supply, inclu ding Cuba in a normal state, has grown only half as fast of late years, and is now about 3,000,000 tons. It is quite likely that this years lproduction of sugar from beets will be twice as great as from cane, whereas conditions were just the reverse about twen ty-five years ago. This accounts for United States iWspartt of ti,"r from Europe in !-:easing from 150,000 'tons four years ago to 550,000 tons last year, tlieanwhile decreasing one-half from "the countries to the south of us"-from 1,300,000 tons in 1892 to 700,000 last year. Indeed, obly the yellow races have been able to hold their own against Europe's highly subsidized 1eet sugar industry. Yet so quietly I has this application gone on of degraded labor to the sugar cane that it is astonishing to find Uni ted States imports of sugar frtm Hawaii, the Orient, and Egypt jumped from about 250,000 tons in 1892 to 700,000 tons last year. The Sandwi~l Island's product has nearly doubled 'tm the fodr years, during which sb) enormoes has lIen their imnportdtion of coh lie or yellow labor that Chinede and Jhpanese noty comprise more, than half the male population. This result has been fostered by our treaty of reciprodity with 'ha waii, dhder which that sugar has had free admission to this market since 1876. While we have thus remitted over $61,000,000 in du ties on her sugar -practically amounting to a direct bounty of this sum to a few of hem planters at the expense of the United States Treasury and the retarding of our ddmestic sugar 'industry we have also paid 'the islands $140,00(,000 for sugair, while they have taken but $56;000,000 worth of our exports. dtch an absoltte ly one-sided and illogical treaty was never before maintained by a goveriment of ruputed sanity. - From""Sugar--the American Ques tion c# the Day," by HERBERT MY RICK, In June Reriew of Reviews.

It is probable that Job's wife never asked him to take tW tacks out of the parlor carpet. Evert woman has he-. times when sh'e wants nothing so bad as a macr to smooth her tVhir and say: "Poor little girl!" The w6rst thing for a woman is to marry a man that she can't love; the worst thing for a san is to love a woman tlhat he can't marry. Married men get to be such good ft'iends because they always act Sorry for each other; markied wo mien never do, because each one kbows the other would never ad niit that she *ished she hadn't. -New York Ptess.

We understand that about thir ty dollars worth of washing is sent to the Lake Charles and Crowley laundries every week by a few 'boys. Just think what the wash ing of the town would amount to if we had a laundry of our own. If this was investigated and looked into closely, we believe it might induce some of our people to form a stock company and put up a plant in St. Martinv ile. A few such small industries would create labor for our young people at home, and would'keep our money home. "There's no use in talking." says W. H.
