Municipal Officers Chosen at a Rousing and Representative Mass-Meeting Thursday Night. Pursuant to a call issued by Mayor George H. Richard, a large and rep resentative mass-meeting of the voters of Donaldsonville was held at the courthouse Thursday night for the pur pose of nominating candidates for mu nicipal offices. Promptly at 8:30o'clock Mayor Richard called the meeting to order, and after stating briefly the ob ject of the gathering, requested that a perm anent chairman be selected. Judge Edmund Maurin nominated E. N. Pugh, and amid great applause Mr. Pugh was selected to preside and es corted to the platform. Upon taking the chair Mr. Pugh made a brief ad dress, advocating the erection of a new and modern schoolhouse, urging the extension of the waterworks and electric light systems, and exhorting the assembled voters to exercise their right of sovereignty in choosing the officers who are to direct the destinies of the town for the next two years. On motion of David Israel, Jr., Ed mund Maurin, Jas. Von Lotten, C. C. Weber, G. Donnaud Bentley and A. G. Whidden were elected secretaries of the meeting. C. C. Weber moved that a committee of five be appointed to draw up suitable resolutions, and after the motion had been put and carried the chair named as the committee G. A. Gondran, Walter Lemann, Dr. T. H. Hanson, Michael Tobias and C. Kline. A recess was taken in order to give the committee time to prepare its report, and the interregnum was enlivened with catchy music. At the expiration of a few minutes the com mittee returned and Secretary Walter Lemann read the following resolu tions, which were submitted fo the meeting and unanimously adopted: Resolved by the voters of the town of Don aldsonville in mass-meeting assembled, That we firmly believe in the time-honored principle of selecting our municipal ticket irrespective of party affiliation and are convinced of the abil ity of the people of the town to work out their own problems. Resolved further, That we appreciate to the fullest the work done by the present adminis tration and feel indebted to them for the sacri fices they have made. With pride they can point to the excellent manner in which the tflna~es of the town have been administered and 'Iey are deserving of much credit for having so ma terially reduced the municipal debt. To the Hon. Geo. Richard much praise is due for the efficient manner in which he has guided the ad ministration, and truly of him may be said, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant!" Resolved further, That progress shall be our watchword. The needs of the town should be immediately cared for and steps taken toward improving our waterworks system. The neces sity of a new public schoolhouse is manifest, and we pledge the best efforts of the candidates this night nominated toward the carrying out of these objects. Nominations were then declared in order, and on motion of C. C. Weber it was decided to make the selections in the following order: Mayor, council men (the voters of each ward to as semble and choose candidates for these offices in any way they desired), treasurer, collector, secretary and chief of police. Michael Tobias se cured the floor and in a forceful and eloquent speech presented as a candi date for mayor Charles Maurin, the enterprising and progressive Missis sippi street grocer. Mr. Tobias re ferred to Mr. Maurin's worth and ability and expressed the opinion that no more capable man could be selected to fill the responsible position of chief executive of this wide-awake and growing town. Jas. Von Lotten seconded the nomination of Mr. Mau rin, and on motion ofC. Kline, seconded by B. J. Vega, the nominations were closed and Mr. Maurin was made the unanimous choice of the meeting. A committee consisting of Geo. H. Rich ard, Walter Lemann and Louis De hon were appointed to escort Mr. Maurin to the platform, and as they returned to the courtroom accompanied by the nominee the applause was deaf ening. After being presented by Mr. Pugh, Mr. Maurin made a short talk, thanking the voters for the honor con ferred upon him, indorsing the resolu tions previously adopted, pledging his best efforts toward the extension of the waterworks and electric light sys tems and the erection of a new school house, and promising to give the town as honest and clean an administration as lay within his power. Mr. Maurin's remarks were received with applause and cheers and it was very apparent that the sentiments he expressed were coincident with those entertained by the assembled voters. Following Mr. Maurin's address and a selection by the band, the voters of the first, second and third wards were called together to select the candidates for councilmen from their respective wards. In the first ward G. A. Gon dran offered the names of James For tier and W. A. Dill and Lucien Acosta nominated James Von Lotten. A lively and interesting parliamentary fight followed on the method of select ing the candidates, it being finally de cided to vote by ballot for two of the three aspirants. Walter Lemann and Capt. S. A. Poche were appointed to conduct the balloting, and the result of the vote was as follows: Von Lotten 26, Dill 20, Fortier 17. Messrs. Von Lotten and Dill were declared the nominees. In the second ward David Israel, Jr., was nominated by Edmund Maurin, B. J. Vega offering a second, and Michael Tobias was nominated by Mr. Vega, Wm. A. Terrio seconding the nomination. Dr. J. L. Webre placed in nomination J. J. Leche, and on a division Messrs. Israel and Tobias were selected with only one opposing vote. Jno. F. Terrio nomi nated J. E. Blum and W. D. Park as councilmen from the third ward, and on motion of Win. Pforzheimer, nu merously seconded, the nominations were closed and Messrs. Blum and Park were elected by acclamation. For the offices of treasurer, collector, secretary and chief of police, the pres ent incumbents, Jos. N. Gisclard, Henry A. Terrio, R. Henderson and D. Variani, were unanimously nomi nated to succeed themselves. Mr. Gis clard was placed in nomination by Geo. Richard, Mr. Terrio by B. J. Vega, Mr. Henderson by Walter Lem ann, and Mr. Variani by Caleb Weber. The applause following the selection of Mr. Variani for chief of police was particularly hearty and en thusiastic. On motion of Walter Lemann, the chairman was authorized to appoint a committee of seven, to consist of two representatives from each ward and the chairman of the meeting, whose duty it shall be to fill any vacancies that may occur in the ticket prior to the election and to attend to filing the nomination papers of the candidates. Mr. Lemann also moved that the ticket be designated as the "People'sTicket," with "Progress" for a motto and a school building for an emblem. The motion was enthusiastically applauded and adopted, after which the meeting adjourned. The full ticket nominated is as fol lows: For Mayor-Charles Maurin. Councilmen-First ward; Jas. Von Lotten and W. A. Dill; second ward, David Israel, Jr., and Michael Tobias; third ward, J. E. Blum and W. D. Park. Treasurer-Jos. N. Gisclard. Collector-Henry A. Terrio. Secretary-R. Henderson.

Han son, Louis Dehon, Geo. H. Richard and Dr. S. V. Vega. The Chief inadvertantly omitted last week to make mention of the visit of Mrs. L. G. Norton, of Kenesaw, Neb., who was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Thibodaux from Saturday, March 11, to the following Wednesday. Mrs. Norton went from here to New Or leans, where she will spend a month on a visit to relatives and friends. She is a charming woman and an accom plished conversationalist, and made many friends during her brief stay in Donaldsonville who cherish the hope that she will pay this section another visit in the near future. Mrs. Norton enjoys the distinction of being presi dent of the Kenesaw Exchange Bank. The Colonel's Waterloo. Colonel John H. Fulle , of Honey Grove. Texas, nearly met his Waterloo, from liver and kidney trouble. In a recent letter, he says: "I was nearly dead of these complaints, and, al though I tried my family doctor, he did me no good; so I got a 50c bottle of yourgreat Electric Bitters, which cured me. I consider them the best medicine on earth, and thank God who gave you the knowledge to make them." Sold and guaranteed to cure dyspepsia. biliousness and kidney disease, by J. J. Leche and F. L. Trepagnier, druggists, at 50e a bottle. A Card to the Public! To Whom It May Concern: Some months ago the residence of Mrs. M. Werner in this town was painted with Hammar Paint, for which J. Rumsey Duke is the sole agent and which is sold under a positive guarantee by the manufac turers that it will last five years. Because of the mixing with it of some foreign substance, probably by the painter, or for some other un known reason, the paint which was put on one side of the house became mildewed. This condition, of which the Hammar Paint Company was informed, has not suited them and they have had taken the entire dimensions of the exterior of the building and are now repainting it. They are thus absolutely demon strating, in no questionable way, that their guarantee is made in genuine spirit and can be unques tionably relied upon. [Signedi MRS. M. WERNER. NOTICE.
