HAWKE. Louisiana' Commissioner of Immigration's Part In the Hlcks-Chevla Duel. Our esteemed contemporary, the Louisiana Mentor, calls the Ti.mks to tank for nut having mentioned in its account of the affair the fact that Mr. G. llawke, commissioner of immigration for the Stato of Louisiana, was present at the Hiek-Chevis duel.

Not until the day after our account of the duel was publisned did we hear anything of Mr. Hawke's presence in Khreveport or on the duelling ground. We were then informed that Mr. llawke had been in Hhreveport with the Chevis party on Saturday, but had returned to New Orleans by Saturday night's train, returning, so it was stated, by Monday morning's train and accompanying the Cuevis party to scene of the duel, and was, if we are correctly informed the only immediate witness to the alfair, save and except the principals, their seconds and the surgeons. The Timks is free to say that had it known of Mr.

Commissioner of immigration Hawke's presencej either in Shreveport or on the field it would not have failed to mention it, for there was no reason why it tdiould not have been mentioned and everv reason why At lANf ft mpritfitl work that tatlii th cstinc. dmcniHn the i'ITiius, poluu the roinwty.

When the Chevis party came to Khreveport none but the parties immediately concerned and their intimate friends knew of their presence. They stopped at a private boarding-house, and no newspaper man could possibly have gained access to any gentleman of the party had he been indiscreet enough to have attempted it. The Times recognized the right of these gentlemen to maintain their privacy on such a mission as had brought them to ourcity and made no effort to intrude upon them, either in this city or on the lield.

We don't hear of as many deaths from asphyxia now as we did t2n or fifteen years ago, when many of tl private houses of our cities and all of the hotels were lighted by gas, but there are still thousands of deaths every year from drowning and from the inhalation of poisonous gases and other fumes which science really ought to lie able to remedy. A few years ago in 1888 or 1889 Professor Poe, of Bridgeport, invented what tbe papers called a "pair of artificial luns," intended to he used in case of apparent death from drowning or asphyxiation. What has become of Poe's great invention? In testing it the professor is said to have "completely" drowned a pet rabbit and restored it to life eleven different times.

His mode of restoration was to apply his patent bellows to tbe animal's mouth and force oxygen into the lungs. The reaction of tbe apparatus, which was provided wdth a powerful suction, drew out the water (Poe said it would act the same with poisonous Rases), and the artificial respiration produced a muscular contraction and expansion of the lungs until life was finally fully restored. If he ha giva up his valuable experiment and his invention it is time for some one else to take the matter up. St. Louis Republic.

ThU is in accordance with our own sucestion of several days since. As the only eilectn way to accomplish thoroughly a cur. a 1-ment of acreage, and in this way, after securing the tipreenn of sentiments of all the States separately, an interstate convention would tben accomplish all that we or any others desirous of seeing reduced acreage, could hope for.

The most ordinary English kitchenmaid would accomplish in a couple of hours what a Wazan slave does in a week. All are free to come and go as they please, but none avail themselves of this freedom. The reason is not far to seek, lu Wazan they are fed and clothed by the sbereefs, and on holidays and feast days receive presents of money.

Nor is it only the necessities of life that are thus supplied to them free, but they are given each his room to live in and married at the expense of the shereefs to slave women.
