There is a part of the present City
Hall park in New Orleans which was
formerly called the Oaks and was a
famous dueling ground Lying on the
noted shell road to Lake Pontchartraln
not far from the city yet deserted It
afforded a convenient spot for the du-
els so frequent among the Creoles
Often when two rivals wished to
conceal the cause of their quarrel they
would invent reasons usually absurd
For Instance one would declare that
the others hair was red when It was
raven black or that the sun revolved
around the earth Instead of vice versa
It was during a winter somewhere
about 1850 that Hiss Caroline Dickin-
son visiting her aunt lime La Tour
in New Orleans took the place social
ly by storm Though beautiful her
character set so to speak In her
charming manners won the hearts of
many of the young bloods of the
Crescent City Among them were
Gaston LHommedieu recently from
Paris and Eliot Whltford whose fa-
ther had originally gone there from
Virginia Neither could feel any confl
dencein having secured the ladys fa-
vor but each was jealous of the other
The truth was that Miss Dickinson
preferred Mr Whltford
One morning about 2 oclock Mme
La Tour entered her nieces bedroom
They had been to some entertainment
had sat up late talking It over and had
a few minutes before parted for the
night Miss Dickinson had begun to
disrobe
My dear said her aunt your un
cle has just come in from the club
with some news which may Interest
you M LHommedieu and M Whit
ford are going to meet at 4 oclock
dawn at the Oaks and you are the
cause of the meeting
The news does interest me re
plied the girl with dismay Suppose
one of them should be killed
It would facilitate your making a
choice between them replied her
auntThey
They shall not fight on my ac
count replied Miss Dickinson Im
going on to theground to stop them
Alone7
No aunt you are going with me-
An hour later a cal eche driven by
Mme La Tour containing the two wo-
men was speeding along the shell road
The moon which was threequarters
full rendered the road less difficult to
follow at night though being white
it was distinguishable at any time
Just as a faint streak appeared In the
east the caleche entered the Oaks and
pulled up near what had often been
pointed out to Mme La Tour as the
dueling ground Presently a carriage
rolled up to the historic spot followed
by another and by the early twilight
two parties of men were seen confer-
ring as to the placing of the principals
In the coming fight
Whos the man with the box under
his arm asked Miss Dickinson
DrJules Rubldoux He Is always
called upon on snch occasions
Heavens How horrible What
abominable customs you have here
And the man with the bundle of
sticks who Is he
Those are not sticks they are ra-
piers See the principals are taking
position
The two women alighted and walked
cautiously toward the duelists The
oaks still cast sufficient shadow to
conceal their advance Suddenly as
there was a clash of steel Miss Dick-
inson walking In advance of her aunt
appeared on the scene Both contest-
ants lowered the points of their ra-
piers and stood looking at her with as-
tonishment
Gentlemen she said may I ask
the occasion of this meeting
There was no reply for a time then
one of the seconds stepped forward
and bowing profoundly said
M LHommedieu mademoiselle has
asserted that the Seine la larger than
the Mississippi This M Whltford con-
sidered an insult to our noble river
and replied that the Bayou Lafourche
Is larger than the Seine Thereupon
M LHommedieu in defense of la belle
revlere of France challenged M Whlt
ford
I am astonished said Miss Dickin-
son that two gentlemen should quar-
rel about such an absurdity Of
course the Seine Is not larger than the
Mississippi
Mademoiselle said LHommedieu
I accept your decision If you also
decide that the Bayou Lafourche Is
larger than the Seine I will apologize
to M Whltford
And If I decide that the Sein la
larger than the bayou
That mademoiselle I should com
elder a great blessing
And this affair will cease
That is for M Whltford to say
And how would you decide that
asked the lady turning to Whltford
How would I decide that Why I
should then feel obliged to enforce ray
opinion In favor of the baytra at tba
point of the sword
Nonsense
The two men ss if by mutual con
sent raised their swords for the purj
pose of renewing the contest
One moment said Miss Dickinson
Cannot ou gentlemen be induced to
forego this encounter without my de
ciding the point of dispute
No replied both at once
Well then she said In an almost
Inaudible voice the bayou Is largerj
than the Seine
M LHommedieu made a graceful
apology to Mr Whltford and tho same
Jay the engagement of the latter with
Miss Dickinson was announced

Bayou That Was Larger
Than the Mississippi
For Cash Down
Copyright 190S by T C McClure
One June day a tin peddler came
alone to the farmhouse ofJoe Plnchly
and halted for a drink of water He
didnt stop because he had any Idea
that he could sell as much as a nutmeg
grater The house was a frame un
palnted weather beaten and gloomy
while the barn and sheds were of logs
the fences gone to decoy the fields
grown up to weeds and the whole out
fit spoke of poverty and shlftlessness
Years before the house had been built
for a roadside inn but travel had been
diverted to another road and its own
er had abandoned the place Shiftless
Joe Pinchly had come along with his
slatternly wife and squatted there
and raised just enough corn and tur-
nips to keep going They were sitting
on the rotting veranda smoking asUbe
peddler drove up
If you had any gumption about you
you could make 1000 out of this
place this summer he said
Ive broke my back here for four
years and almost starved to death re-
plied Joe
But you lack gumption you see
Gumption means knowing howto let-
up on farming and take hold of some-
thing better when its right at your
door Lord man but what a chance
you have missed
Ive alius told Joe there was money
buried somewhere around here ob-
served Mrs Plnchly as she removed
her pipe from her mouth
Burled money be hangedits right
on top of the ground If s right before
your eyes Its in the house Its ly-
ing around loose and waiting to be
picked up If youd had gumption
youd be riding in your own carriage
today You didnt have it You had
to wait until I came along to show
you where the money Is
And youll show uisl exclaimed
husband and wife in chorus as they
rose up and looked around
Thats to be seen First I want
to look this old house over I want to
see every room in it Then I want to
have a square talk with you You are
sick of staying here and I am sick of
tin peddling not but what Its a noble
profession but It doesnt furnish the
opportunities for a hustling man
There was a talk lasting for two
hours The peddler drew up a paper
and the three signed it When he de
parted Joe Plnchly and wife were feel
lng quite balmy They hadnt found
any money but they were nodding
their heads at each other and grinning
There was a village five miles to the
east of them and another six miles to
the west and in both of them weekly
newspapers were published Before
night next day the peddler had inter-
viewed the editors The editors had
a halrjalslng story of a haunted house
There were a score of other papers in
the county The peddler didnt stop
until he had called upon half of them
He also stopped travelers on the high-
way and talked and he talked to peo-
ple In villages and inside of two wee ks
10000 people had heard the news that
Joe Pinchlys old farmhouse was
haunted The reports were awesome
and grewsome and hair raising
People arejiever satisfied to simply
talk about a haunted house if within
reaching distance of it The peddler
had provided for their coming He had
sunk his cash capital in buying pro-
visions When the rush set In he was
there to welcome it All Plnchly and
his wife had to do was to shake their
heads and look mysterious and sell
pies and sandwiches to hungry sight-
seers Boiled eggs and hot tea and cof-
fee could also be had at a price There
were twenty different rooms and a cel-
lar and garret to the old house and
the charge for taking a visitor through
them all was 30 cents They were tak-
en in groups of six at a time If they
merely desired to see the family bed-
room whera a score of mysterious
noises had been heard at night togeth-
er with the room where the peddler
had been hauled out of bed by a ghost
It was only 25 cents The night noises
as the peddler stated and the Plnchlys
affirmed by nods of the head consist-
ed of groans sighs footfalls tappings
whisperings and a large and well se
lected stock of other hair raisers
In one week 200 people came in wag
ons Some brought their food and
some bought it They camped about
the house and paid their money to be
conducted over it and then drove away
to send others During the second
week they began to come by rail and
were driven over from the village The
fare was 1 each The peddler had
seen to that also to his divvy Some
of those who wished to remain all
night and watch the outside of the
house paid n quarter apiece for a bed
on the hay in the barn and bought sup-
per and breakfast Those who wished
to pass the night in rooms in groups of
three sat on the floor in the darkness
and paid CO eents apiece for the privi-
lege They heard ghostly noises and
got their moneys worth Next morn-
ing they paid a whooping big price for
boiled eggs coffee and sandwiches
It is a matter of fact and history
that the excitement was maintained
for a long eight weeks and that scores
of people came at least a hundred miles
to see for themselves Then there was
a letup and the peddler and the
Plnchlys showed their wisdom They
left the old house one night in a thun
derstorm when the ghosts were play-
ing tag through all the rooms and the
sighers and groaners were sighing and
groaning their loudest and no one
around there ever heard of them again
Some folks said they carried away
2000 In the long green Even if they
raked in half that sum it was better
than peddling or farming among the
ttoad stumps M QUAD

of education a Marion county I trust
that no teacher will fail to read each
week what this space contains
Alice Emmebt
County Superintendent
Chief Cause of Non Attendance
First indifference on the put of
parents to giq their children a fin-
ished educrtion The thought in
the parents mind that reading
writing and a short coursein math-
ematics fit a child for the battle
of life and that to be able to make
a living is the main object in ob
taining an education They forget
that intelligence gives moral stam-
ina and the power to conduct right-
ly civic and social affairs
If we give to education simply a
money vnlue let us ask why is it
that in the great struggle lor sub-
sistence there are millions at the
bottom and comparatively few at
the top The answer is lack of
mental training keeness of thought
concentration ambition and moral
worth How and where can these
menial qualities be developed and
ilhe above conditions be changed
In our schools by having more in
teligent teachers better teaching
longer terms and regular attend-
ance >
Tb ecind reason for non attend-
ance is the hum drum methods of
teachers the same manner of con-
ducting recitation from the begin-
ning to the end of the term every-
day the tame The monotony be-
comes distasteful to a child and at
last unbearable Besides miking
the studies interesting to the chil-
dren they must feel that they are
doing thorough work nnd storing
away vuluiible knowledge Right

ne83 has lees place in the school-
room than in tha work shop The
teacher who expects to be retted at
4 oclock in the afternoon and not
weary at the end of the terra has
chosen the wrong work Teach
ing means labor of the intensest
kind To use the words of our
able educator all teachers should
animate every word he utters with
the truest the best the largest and
the greatest that is io him We
admit that teachers are like poets
boin such The cells of the brain
can be increased by use and any
quality of mind can be cultivated
by de ire and effort so any person
wh < vi8hes to become a successful
teacher can do so by holding to the
desire and making the necpssary
effort AlberlHtirbardsays Keep
your mind on the great and splen-
did things you desire to do and
thems the days go gliding by you
will find yourself unconsciously
seizing upon the opportunities that
are requited for the fulfillment of
your desire just a the coral insec
tak6s from the running tide the el-

desire and ev ry sincere prayer ic
answered we become like that on
which our hearts are fixed
Teachers would do well to paste
thea words on their de k ind by
jeading over and over develop con-
fidence and a desire for success
Let this be your strongest wish to
secure belter results frnm your
work than everbefore attained
The third reason for poor atten-
dance is the unattractive surround-
ings Visit the school houses and
see if it is surprising that the pu-
pils ask to remain at home Is it
not natural to love the beautiful
Why do we cover the walls of our
homes with beautiful paper and
hang them with pictures To pleas
the eye and satisfy the soul Pupils
from 7 to 17 the years for fixing
tastes and habits should have bea

ble and attractive school building
is not a fad nor a fancy but an ab

ings and furnishings we would
have better teaching and better at-

Texas Women Operate
CleanUpDay
Same Day as Last Year March JOth
The Civic Committee of the Texas Federation
of Womens Clubs after conferring with our State
Health Officer have decided on March 10th as our
annual CleanUp Day On this day the ladies will
importune our local authorities mayors and coutfty
commissioners and request them to do their part in
cleaning up It is not fair for the ladies to do it all
They are willing to thoroughly renovate their
homes but what is sauce for the goose is sauce for
gander and so they want the men in office to see
that all public buildings streets alleys ditches etc
are cleansed as well
The following is something like the schedule
which itis desired to carry into effect First all
buildings either public or private should be dusted
swept deprived of cobwebs scrubbed sunned aited
whitewashed repainted or repapered Second all
premises should be freed from accumulated rubbish
and trash Everything burnable should be turned
into ashes All heavy stuff should be transported to
the dump ground Third all weeds grasses and
other vegetable growths should be cut down or pulled
up and burned or hauled away Fourth the stables
and other out houses should be thoroughly cleansed
and disinfected All stagnant pools should be drain-
ed or oiled All cisterns and rain barrels should be
screened andif already screened they should be ex-
amined for repairs Fifth all streets and alley
should be treated like private premises thoroughly
deprived of all weeds rubbish and stagnant pools
Every citizen in this State can do some little thing
to help CleanUp Day If you are anticipating a
general cleanup let it be done on this day because
insects and vermin rats mice and other nuisances
when attacked from all sides at once suffer more
Let us all cooperate In no other may could ener-
gy be better expended than in making our State
cleaner and purer Cleanliness is next to Godli-
ness Let us show that we appreciate the truth of
this axiom CITY HEALTH OFFICER
