SMALLPOX IX PARISH PRISON. Officials Take Prompt Action and Vaccinate Prisoners. Visitors were denied access to the Parish Prison yesterday because a case of smallpox had developed there. The victim was James Scott, a negro, arrested for vagrancy. The City Board of Health took prompt action in the case by removing the prisoner to the Pesthouse and thoroughly fumigating his cell.

Besides this- act of precaution all the prisoners who had been exposed to infection were immediately vaccinated. This is not the first case of the kind to develop In the Parish Prison. On March 14 James Williams was removed from his cell to the Pesthouse. On March 31 John Floures, a negro wanted In McComb City, was sent to the Pesthouse after three days' confinement in the Parish Prison. In all of these esses thorough fu migation of cells and vaclnation of pris oners was resorted to.

Altogetner during the past month there were 205 prisoners vaccina red. Yesterday eighty-four underwent that operation. A similar experience was had in the House or retention on Marcn wnen a prisoner named Willie Wade was found suffering with smallpox. He was promptly conveyed to the Pesthouse. and 205 of his fellow-prisoners were forthwith vaccinated.

It Is thought that these prompt measures of precaution will prevent any spread of the disease in either of the prisons mentioned. I. C. DIRECTORS HERE. Harahan, Auchencloss and Pea-body on Inspection Tour.

Goes Into the Question of the Legality of Mortgage Loans to Married Women Effected Without the Certificate Usually Obtained from the Courts. A decision of considerable interest and Importance was rendered yesterday by1 Judge George H. Theard of the Civil District Court in the matter of Mrs. Salome Acker, Widow, vs. Elizabeth Bourgeois, wife of L.

J. Bourgeois, ia which the court goes into the question of the validity of mortgage loans to married women when the same have been effected without the certificate of authorization usually obtained from the courts in such cases. The decision is: Plaintiff having foreclosed upon a note of SlwiO secured by mortgage on defendant separate property, the latter obtained an injunction against the executory process on the grounds, substantially, that she made a pretended sale for cash of said property to Loys Charbonnet by act before Wynne G. Rogers, notary lle, on July 17, 1903; that she received no consideration for said sale, which w-as simulated; that immediately thereafter, at the same hour. Bald property was resold to her on terms of credit by Loys Charbonnet by act before the same notary; that said pretended sale and resale, to the knowledge of plaintiff, were made and intended to effect a mortgage on her separate property; that tbe note secured by said mortgage was to be immediately taken up by plaintiff and the cash obtained therefor was to be used in paying the debts of defendant's husband; that said mortgage was disguised as a sale in contravention of the laws of Louisiana, which require a married woman to be authorized by a judge to mortgage her property; that for want of such authorization said mortgage Is null and void; that she executed said mortgage in error of fact and of law; that it was wMthout consideration to her, and in fraud of her paraphernal property: that she received no portion of the pretended purchase price, which was turned over in its entirety to her husband for his sole use end benefit; all to the knowledge of plaln- Plalntlff ruled defends why the writ of Injunction should not be Tl asiae.

ior tne reasons: First, that the allegations of her petition are false and untrue: and. that aha failed to furnish bond with solvent security as ir-juuru i law. Upon the trial of the rule it was arreed In open court that It should be considered as an answer and the cause heard upon tbe merits. The ground relative to the failure to iumisn Donn was abandoned. It had al ready.

In effect, been waived by the join der of Issue. DOCTRINE NOT APPLICABLE. relled on by Mrs. Acker, tnat when a married woman, separate in property, sells by authentic act her paraphernal prooertv. although th Is a disguised mortgage for the benefit of her husband, yet if the notes given for the purchase price fall into the hands of innoeent third parties, the vendor's lien and special mortgage securing the notes anas no application Here.

ThlS is not the Case of an anninnt. ly genuine sale by a married woman of her paraphernal nronertv nH ih. sitlon by an Innocent third person of iium representing tne pur chase price. The pretended acts of sale by Mrs. Bourgeois to Charbonnet and bv aarbonnet back to Mrs.

Bourgeois, exe- same aay, conveyed on their face full notice to the world that they were nothing more than a disguised mortgage by Mrs. Bourgeois of her seriarste property with the sole authorization of ner uusouna, ana witnout authorization 540b court 1err'' T- Gilkeson, SO The latter authorization, however, was not necessary to the validity of the mortgage. A married woman can, with the authorization of her husband, hypothecate her paraphernal property to secure a loan uiane ior ner separate benefit. C. Art.

122). The only difference be tween a mortgage loan contracted under autnoruy or tne court in conformity with articles rz, and 128 of the Civil Code and a mortgage loan contracted with the authorization of the husband alone Is that In the former the Judge's certificate is conclusive proof that the money has Inured to the benefit of tbe wife's sepa- mie fsutif. wnereas in tne latter tne lencier carries the burden of nrovln whenever so required, that the wife separate estate was benefited. (Teutonia Loan and Building Company vs. Cronan, 115 La.) This burden rests not only upon the lender or original mortgagee, but upon any holder of the mortgage note evidencing the loan, howsoever re mote from him.

Lester vs. Sheriff, 46 dM it is not enough to show that the money for the note went into the wife's hands; it must be proved additionally that she nsed it for her separate oenent. (Henry vs. iauthreanx. 32 A.

118: Urouhart vs. Thomas 24 A. as Calhoun vs. Bank. 30 772; Teutonia t-ompany vs.

cronan. uDl supra). FAILS TO MAKE PROOF. Mrs. Acker, who is before the court in the attitude of bolder of the note of a married woman secured bv mortis re on her paraphernal property, without authorization from the court, has failed to make the requisite proof.

The testimony of Mr. Charbonnet, to the effect that he paid over to Bourgeois In person the Thousand dollars received from Mrs. Acker for the note, is flatlv contradicted by Mrs. Bourgeois. If I accept as true the testimony of Mr.

Charbonnet, a member of the bar with whom I have a pleasant personal acquaintance, as against that of Mrs. Bourgeois, a stranger to me, but who testified with anna rent tlnrorii, the fact remains that no proof was Jntro- ancea to snow wnat disposition was made of the money other than to give it i' iier nusnana. a tieciarea Bankrupt. That Is fatal to Mrs. Acker's nretenslons.

Let judgment be entered perpetuating the writ of injunction herein Issued, with costs, aad ordering the erasure and cancellation from the public records of the inscription of the one thousand dollars mortgage npon the paraphernal property of plaintiff in Injunction as per act or snie from Loys narbonnet to Mrs. L. j. Kourgeois, passed before Wvnne G. Rogers, notary public, on July 17, 1903.

"Its the fault of the rubber trust, explained a baseball magnate to-day. "The trust hit the first ball across the plate this season and knocked the prices so high that it will never come down." And the magnate was right. One of the principal reasons given by the manufacturers is the advance in the price of rubber, a large percentage of which Is employed in the composition of the first class ball. It was also explained that worsted had gone up. but this is believed to be not aiaterlal enough to affect prices much.

Prof. Armour Caldwell delivered the Wednesday lecture yesterday before an appreciative audience. Dr. Caldwell's subject was, "The World's Greatest Sea Story." He said that the majority of his audi ence would doubtless be surprised that the subject of the lecture was "Moby Dick," a novel by Melville. But little space has been given to it in literary history or criticism, but Robert Louis Stevenson said that it was the greatest sea story ever written, and that it led him to his narrative of the South Seas.

But "Moby Dick" is now 6lowly gaining Its proper, place la American literature as the increase of editions and readers shows. Herman Melville was born In New York city in 1819. He went to sea as a cabin boy, returned and taught school, and then wnt to sea again. He deserted from bis ship and was captured by cannibals. On bis return ne wrote many novels con tainine his experiences.

"Ooinoo and "Mohy Dick" were the best of these. The last named was written In 1861, and was his masterpiece. He died 1 1 CV.t i ia aura, iu juue Lrua.eu iu mind. The story tells of how Ismael (Melville himself) bappened to snip with an old sea captain. This old mariner -had lost a leg in conflict with a monster whale In the South eeas and had vowed to kill the whale at any cost.

The voyage, the constant outlook for tne whale: the tinal conflict, resulting in the killing of the whale and tne destruction or tne snip, none escaping but Ismael all pictured with tremendous force and vigor. "Moby Dick" Is very like to Sterne's "Trlstam snandv. it nas tne same per verse disproportion, the same elaborate digressions and the same dramatic dia-lecue. It abounds with description and philosophising, and this makes the story rather slow. The author rather saunters along.

But at times he reaches the dlg-nitv of Carlvle's best nrose. The story fs full of humor the unoffend- world were all fought in heaven first He said that just as there were demons operating in this world, so there were angels encamped around the tabernacle as hosts of light, and that eacn little child was attended by angels, for the ScriptureR said: "Their angels ever be hold the face of my father who is In heaven." Satan was not in hell, yet, Mr. Ham said; he was the prince of the hosts of wickedness in heavenly place. Mr. Ham then spoke of the great coa ftlct which was always going on between the forces of evil and the forces of good and said that these naeetlnts were strna fling aicalnat terrible onslaughts of the evil forces.

He tald the devil waa behind a concerted and united effort to atop these meetins, because he recoanliel that tTiere bad come a turaing point In tke history of New Orleans. He said that the pele who Jeeted about tke devil took a.ore licertv wib feim than the angeit of heaven. He said that the conflict in this city was not onlv with the evil here, hot aaainst the devil himslf, with his sr. tred force. He talked of Jor, and hi eeniiet with te devil and said that the devil's subjects kere were sttacsin him on the srlnciple that one thief suspected another.

He saidbat it was easv to accuse areachers of being grafters, but if there wan money In the business, he wondered why more did rot ao into the preaching Ir. Hani said the devil did sot live ia New Orleans. He flew around fcere a few yeara ago and found that it was doiag well without him that he did not need to star. He was alwavs slat to see the devil overshoot the mark, and he hart done it in the liquor business. The devil knew just the kind of bait with whtck to tempt eoile.

and knew Just tkeir weak point. The same people who rrrte4 tkera. he aid. and who con-eMBd the tabernacle, would burn them at the stake if thev dared. He told the coegretatB that If thev left the tabernacle without accepting Christ they would leave with tke devils of Satan about tkm.
