—At uoou, on Friday last, Chas.
Brown and John Green, two of the
four murderers of Mr. Martial
Sorrel, were led to the gallows in
expiation of their horrible crime.
Their execution was witnessed by
several of the representatives of the
press, who had been in attendance
at the press convention. Sheriff
Cade having extended them the
privilege. The doomed men were
with their religious advisers, Revs.
Fathers Frohu and Girault, when
the press representatives eutered ;
after the last sacraments had been
administered to them, they ex
pressed the desire to be led to their
doom, and while they exhibited
concern,yet they were calm and pre
pared to meet their fate. The walked
steadily down the stairwary from
the second story of the jail and up
the high scaffold. Each in turn
addressed the crowd on the outside
the high board fence, protesting
their innocence, and stepped back
in position for the noose to be
placed around their necks; they
knelt down at the behests of their
pastors, offered a last prayer, and
rising again to their feet, deputy
sheriff Geo. Henderson placed the
black cap over their heads, adjusted
the noose around their neeks,
stepped aside, pulled an iron lever
and the wretches dropped into eter
nity. The knot in the noose around
Brown's r.eck slipped under his
chiu, leaving exposed the lacerated
flesh and throwing his head hack
so that his face was completely up
turned heavenward; a few minutes
after the drop, the poor wretch re
covered consciousness sufficiently
to audibly utter the words: "God
have mercy upon me ; cut the rope ;
hang me over." This was followed
by sharp wheezing and writhing
agony for several minutes. Green
was more fortunate the knot press
ed against the back of his neck, and
though he heaved and struggled for
a moment, he seemed to suffer less.

»The Ose Superintendents Max
Mas Power." well of New York,
and Andrews, of Chicago, are being
personally criticised by some for
their advocacy of what is called the
one man power in school adminis
tration. While we in Louisiana
are agitating the question of school
supervision and lamenting our
present lack of professional ability
in this important office, we are re
minded of the duties now committed
to a greater or less extent to this
officer and the school board. They
are as follows : Selection of text
books; selection of school apparatus;
making or approving of conrses of
study ; certification of teachers ; ap
pointment of teachers ; suspension
of teachers ; the dismissal of teach
ers ; the inspection and direction of
teachers' work ; calling and con
ducting teachers' meetings; etc.
Let any one ask himself, "Who is
able for these things!"
The Wisconsin Journal of Edn
cation comments as follows : "Sev
eral years ago a member of the
school board of Boston, a univer
sity graduate and a professional
man of high standing, resigned his
membership on the ground that he
had to help to decide so many
questions of importance in regard
to which he was wholly incompe
tent to form an independent judg
ment that he could not in self-re
spect continue to hold the office.
• • • •
• • • • •
If our school boards were only made
np of such men as he there would be
little occasion to complain. Too
often they are made np of politi
cians, and men of very limited
education, who think themselves
competent to decide anything from
questions of ward politics to im
perial policies, who wonld not hesi
tate to add to running a corner
grocery the runuing of a univer
sity* * * * What is the remedy
proposed? The concentration of
authority in snch technical matters
in the hands of an expert superin
tendent, who shall be placed be
yond the power of the board to in
terfere with him in the discharge
of his duties. As President Eliot
said at Chicago, there is in this
nothing un-Amerioan or despotic.
In fact experience in other depart
! ments of public life has demon
strated that fair dealing and the
; interests of the people are really
I secured by just such a policy. Of
course the opponents cry out against
! "one man power," and the
democratic policy" of such a plan,
and many teachers, some superin
tendents and a great many other
honest and well-meaniug people are
j alarmed by these phrases. It is iu
fact a great change which is pro
posed, aud it ought to be thorough
ly discussed before it is adopted
but it seems to us that discussion
will only make more clear its wis
dom and necessity. Obviously the
old plans are no longer adequate
to the conditions of modern life.

Pythian Tribute to the Memory of
Ceasar S. Dreyfus.
To Iberia Lodge No. 39 K. of 1*.
Brethren—It is witli feelings of pro
found regret and deepest sadness, shared
by all Pythians in this Grand Domain, that
we bring to the memorial gallery of this
lodge our tribute to the worth and memory
of one of its most earnest, and devoted
members. Brother Ceasar s. Dreyfus died
at his home in this city, on April 21st, 1900.
To every official station to which his
brethren called him, as in every position
held by him he brought, with a desire to
meet the requirements, a zeal and energy
that wrought success. Through loyalty to
family, fidelity to friends, and devotion to
the Order, brother Dreyfus has left a name
honored and beloved, an influence helpful
and lasting. A true friend, a faithful broth
er, an honest and true citizen, a loving son
has been taken from our midst. No more
shall we feel the warm pressure of his hand,
and the geniality of his loving presence.
A good man never lives in vain, but lives
behind the fragrant example of goods,deeds
and kindly offices to his fellow man. Be it
ours to emulate his virtues, which adorned
and dignifiedh is character.
''None* knew thee hut to love thee.
None named thee but to praise."
