Mexican Brigandage.
Ily Dillon W allace.
'I tl Iturales, or mounted polli'e. have pre t,. n,'arl:.- , ut a stop to
brigandage. Several years ago, during the lpreid, ni of ('(onlon
fort, the government recognized the wisdomI of the Ald adage, "Set
a thief to catch a thief," and offered panlrn an:u lrotection to all
brigands who would come in and enlist as Iltlrales. Most of them
took advantage of the offer. and with these men on the side of
law and order, holdups soon became infrequent, and the iRrales
developed into a wonderfully efficient mounted force t:o hunt dhn bandits.
Thet ar. fearless riders, they know every mountain - a-t:ind fastness, and
when they once start after a man he is pretty sure to b' (aught or t-illed -gen
erally killed.
The Rurales of Mcxico compare favorably In bravery and reckless daring
with that wonderful organization, the Northwest Mounted Police aof 'anada, and
are by far the best armed force in Mexico. Their calling gives theni opiportun
ltv for wild adventure, and thus satisfies the craving f 'r a life of ,lan.ger, which
led many of them to be brigands in the first intance TIh( y are a frele and easy
lot, quite in contrast to the peaceably-inclined !)olli,.men of the towns, andl the
slow-moving, indolent soldiery of the regular army.-From "'leyond the Mexi.

The revolutionary suggestions of gi
Governor Sanders that the state dis
posefof its large penitentiary farms,
and put the convicts on the road in
the construction of p;'rmanunt high
ways. If carried cut. will be an up
turning of Louisiana'.; convict p licy ti
of recent years. and would place up- a
on the market some of the most valu- t h
able plantations in Louilarra. Those Ci
wh oppose any change in the system in
opplose it on the ground that the 1
stat,., in this systlem, has found the
most profitable and most humane
way to take care of its convicts. andti
that instead of c,)-ting th,- state si
something to keep th'ii up, the con- bi
victs will soon be earning a revenue he
for the state. The arguin' nt in fa- bh
vor of the convicts otn the roads, is
that out of their services the state. ar
in the construction of permanent m
highways, will get something that do
will be of service to the entir., state.
Big Virgin Forest Tracts.
The parish of Livingston has, per-. o0
haps, the most virgin forest land of b'
the State or even the South. It re- ti
mained almost untouched and un
heard of until the coming of the c1
Baton Rouge and Hammond Railroad ti
a year ago. For several years the 0
timber men have been buying the cc
land until now one corporation owns
about 125,000 acres, mostly of pine
land. The hard wood is yet mostly v
held In small tracts, and is being .1
much sought after by mill men and in
exporters. tl

up to find himself minus his left arm.
The train passed with a rush and af
ter throwing the unfortunate negro d

East Carmoll Rice Finest in U. S. to
T.he rice raised in the Iake Provi- c
denci section is the finest produced i
in the United States. It brings a pre
mium over rice produced anywhere
else. Both Japan and Honduras rice it
are raised. The Japan rice i, said to I
produce about one-third more rice:
than the Honduras variety and is the a
hardier of the two varieties. The Hon I
duras rice is, however, a better mon- I
ey product, acre for acre. It is larg-I
er and of hatter quality than the Ja
pan rice.

Rain Doing Much Damage.
In sections the rain is doing much
damage to late corn and peas, and is n
causing more destruction to the cot

Festive Day Date- Baok to the
Romans.
March I is a day of joyful festivity
amon" the ::chool children in most
of th, Euigalne communes. At 4
o'clv.k in the morning a party of
schoo:bo.s march throagh the village
clanging cowbells, big anlI little, with
all their might, to proclaim the dawn
of a bolstero.:s day to their slumber
Ing s.rhoalmate.; rill abel.
As the day grew: bright the boys
gather, each one with a huge bell
hung round his neck, on the villags
square, where they form in ranks
according to t':(.ir size. When the
preparatl-n, alia.,s conlucted amid
groat excitement and j::ventle jubila
tion, have heyn conmple'ei, the pro
ceslhon starts on a tour through the
sirecs to '::e ac:omntanuient of furl
cu= b '! in rnr co 1 noisy ycdelling.
One of 'th ci le:t of the der.onstra
tors. with a milk pa'l on his shoulder,
in the costume of a dairyman, with
yellow breeches, white stockings, low
shoes, finally embhridered braces over
a sbirt of spotless white, turned up
esleves displaying a trawny arm, the
dairyman'; ,hat pecchcd jauntily on
the back of hit head, marches proud
ly at the head of the herd. At the
end of the procession is another bi;
boy with a big staff in his hand, like
a herdaran.
All this reminds us of the way the
cows go to the Als to the sound
cr bells. The wl.o:e festival is noth
ing b t a sr'nug ce'ebration to her
all the re:urn of the milder sea
ren, which has b:en looked forward
to w:th longing for m;nths.
The custom is said to be of Roman

the rroceeds a general jollification is
I:'ovi.ed, at which the g!rls of the
nI-borhood take part. How intense
's the youngsters' enjoyment of the
Chalarda Marz fest!vitles can scarce
ly be imagined by any cne who has
