in Vidalia Saturday afternoon, April
30th, at 5 o'clock, when Mr. Jno.
W\. Conner and Miss Ludie Graves
were married by Dr. J. J. Chisolm,

quiet affair, owing to the illness of
the bride's mother. The groom is
a promising young man, popular

St. Joseph enjoyed the honor of
a visit on Thursday and Friday from
the Rt. Rev. Bishop Van de Ven of
Natchitoches, who came on invita
tion of Rev. Father l)egnan, Rector
of St. Joseph church, to adminis
ter the sacriment of confirmation to
a class composed of Misses Beatrice,
Ethel, Elizabeth and FlorenceThorn
burg and Elise Hazlip and Mr. Samn
lHazlip. At this service the Bishop
delivered a very strong sermon, ful
ly explaining the significance and
importance of the Rites of Confirm
ation.
On Friday night the Bishop de
livered a most interesting and im
pressive ltetpre at the Court House
that approached the dignity and
depth of sermon and was attentive
ly received by a large and intelli
gent audience, whose untiring inter
est was best marked by the rapt at
tention accorded the speaker thro'
out the very able discourse, at the
ceonclus n of which many expres
sins of pleasure and appreciation
were offered alike by Protestants and
SCattadics.
As was to have been expected the
Srepresentatives of the St. Joseph
SHigh School acquitted themselves
Smst creditably in the Rally Day
Sexercises at Baton Rouge last week.
Mr. Sam Hazlip in the 220 yard
Slow hurdles won third place in
p29 1-5 seconds, and would certain
ly have won first but for the acci
dent of tripping on last hurdle. He
ialso miade the 100 yard obstacle
race in 55 seconds, again gaining
third place. His speed, however,
was best shown in the 50 and 10()
yard dashes, which he clipped off
in 6 2-5 and 11 2-5 seconds respect
ively. His record at this meet won
for him two cirtificates which will
be of aldvantage when he enters L.

I Notice to the Public! I
The rumor has been persistently cir
culated by some of my good "friends" that
1 the big sale recently conducted by me was
only a prelude to my withdrawal from busi
ness in St. Joseph.
I wish to flatly contradict this state
ment, as I have no intention whatever of
leaving St. Joseph, or of discontinuing busi
ness here. Those who have busied them
selves with circulating this report have done
so with selfish purpose and with view of
their own betterment.
Since my return from the East where
I recently went to select my SPRING and
SUMMER GOODS, the public is cordially
invited to call at my store and see the im
mense and magnificent stock that is daily..
arriving, afid which is about as complete as
ever seen in this t'own or parish.
Thanking my customers for their very
liberal patronage and bespeaking a contin
Suance along the same popular lines of trade
that have made my store famous for low
cash prices and high quality of goods, I am,
Very truly yours, ,
