The annexation of Cubs will abolish the American sugar plantatsios.- Texas Farm And 1 Ranch. A Disgusting Exhibition. One of the most disgusting and loathsome sights seen in this town for many years was the snake eating exhibition on Main street during the week. The show is the most degrad ing and debasing ever performed in a civilixed community, and how inteli gent people can tolerate it is beyond our comprehension. Such exhibitions are neither instrutive nor wholesme, and they should be run out of town. Snake.eaters have no place in a decent community and their absence would be appreciated. Croquet Party. A Croquet Party was had by seve ral of our young men and ladies last Sunday evening on the grounds ad joining the Guion Academy. The evening was delightfully spent and the games closely contested.

The long expected and much talked . of Firemens parade is now recorded A as a grand success of the past. In 1 point of magfleceqce. style and ar- tistic finish it has surpassed even the brilliant efforts of its predeceseors, bwhich is saying much in its favor. Wednesday's festival was not only a signal success i itself giving cause to our gallant firemens for rejoicing, t hat t also had a deeper meaningb which gives hope for the future. It was the evidence of a re-awakentin of an interest on the part of both the a iremen and the people in matters pertaining to the fire department, and of a good esprit de corps among the firemen, wiech, if properly cultivated is bound to result in great good. The weather on the occasion was anything but encouraging. Dark and omanous clouds dimmed the bright effulgence of the atmosphere, and it was feared that the pleasures of the day would be marred by a downpour of rain. However, such was not the case, for although still threatening during the parade, the sbower did not come until everything was over. Notwithstanding, the threatening attitude of the elements long before the hour appointed tor ito starting of the pruc9Esion. a throng of peopli from the town and country assembled around the court house to witness the formation of the parade. The procession formed around the eouare, and at the hour fixed, 4 o'clock, it started up Main street, headed by the grand marshal, Dr. Thos. Stark, and his aids, Messrs. Dr. Ayo, Jno. D. Shsafer, Albert Bou dreaux and F. Sevin. Following these ihe procesiou marched in this order : let. The Protector Fare Co. No. 2 beaded by Ih. maentie, Messrs. P. H. Breaux, Thomas Roger, Emile Lfort and Ed. Smithwie'k. 2nd. The Home Hook and Ladder Co., preceded by its marshalls, Messrs. O. E. Peltier and (us Guet. 3rd. The Thibodaux Bucket Bri gade just behind its marshalls, Messrs. Jno. McNamara, Dave Scally, W. P. Martin, Chas. Daspit, Scadday Frost, Dr. Joe. Drexler and Oscar Augellos. 4th. The Brooklyn Fire company No. 3 following its marshall, Mr. Jos Robichaur. 5th. The Thibodaux Fire Co. No. 1, with its marshalls, Messrs W. E. Howell and Scott Williams. The trucks of the vanrious com panies were neatly and artistically decorated sad evinced much skill and taste on the part of the decorators. Pretty little Carmen Legendre, on the Protector's engine, was daintily dressed in white and resembled a veritable little fairy, while Masters Jos. Oschwald and Marcel Riviere attired in the company's uniform, Smade stalwart reprsenlttiver of the coming generation. Charming little Mir May Riaviere seated on the Home Hook and Ladder Co's. truck, hand, somely gowned in blue. won the admiratiou of ti on lIookers. Tbhe bevy of pretty young misses in tim ship represeanted by the Thibodau Bucket Briade, presented a bautiful sight to behold sad evoked much applause from the crowd. Massres Psaule Aueoin, Cecile iDelas, Lure Raviere, Viva Coulon, Mabel Taylor and Ophelia Cointmsent, were in the ship. The procemssion folowed the route publhshed in our last issue, the best order and decorum prevailing through. out the march and at sli times. At the conclousion the firemen were royally entertained by the grand marshall, ably assisted by his aids. After which the companies repaired to their respective places and partook of a ~bnmptious sepper. After disbradmeg there was sone serneuding done by ome o( the companies, and by 8 o'clock the glorio'sday was but a swreet memory -L coenlous figure durjng the arade yas the orsso Chief I PlakDep tmen.~ who had come in espleU to an inltation.

Mas. M. NAQUn. The many friends and the commu nity at large were deeply chagrined to learn of the death of this veaness. b:e and highly respected lady which occurred at her home'on Canal street lsst Monday night at the advanced age of 84 yeats. Deceased was Miss Azalee Bozelease Richard and mar ried Mr. Maximillien Naquin, now deceased, from which union eleven children were born of whom four are now living, viz: Emile, Ozemie, Al. fred, and Emeline, and who are to day worthy citizens of the community in which they live. She. had resi(ded in this town asice 1856. Deceased was a devout Cath olic and always had a kind and en couraging word to those in distress.' Charitable to a fault, the has helped many a poor mortal along the path way of life During her last illness she was sur rounded by her family and many old and sorrowing friends, she received the last rites of the church which she had sO faithfully served all her life and died a true christian death. Her fJmiliar flgre Wlii e ! lismed and her loss to the community is a serious one. The remains were in terrei in the family tomb in the Catholic cemetery Tuesday evening at 5:30 and were followed by a large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives who had come to pay their last respects to their dear departed friend. To the bereaved family the I SttTIra extenud its heartfelt sym pathies and may they aud consola tion in the poets words: "There is no death l-What qpems sois transition. This life of mortal breath Is but a subPrb of the life elysian, Whose portals we call death." Ten Uses of Lemons. A dash of lemon in plain water is in excellent tooth wash. It not only removes tartar, but .sweetens the breath. Two or three slices of lemon in a cup of strong tea will care a nervous headache. Lemon juice (outward application) will allay the irritation naused by the bites of gnats and flies. No family should be without lemons. Their uses are almost too many for enumeration. The juice of a lemon' tken in hot water on wakening in the morning, is an excellent liver corective, and for stout women is better than anti fat medicine ever invented. Glyue:lne and lemon juice half and half, on a bit of abcorbent cotton, is the best thing in the wogid wherewith to moisten the lips an tongue of a fever.parched patient.
