All arrangements, as far as possible, had been made. The size of the committee had been materially Increased, the auxiliary now numbering between 20O and 300 ladies. From the plans which had been outlined, it was safe to say that there would be accommodatlous for 20,000 people at the festival. Mr. George Youug.

chairman of the fluance committee, reported that Its receipts from the sale of tickets np to date had leea $5S3. and from benevolent associations $75, a total of $058. He spoke of tlie necessity of getting in the returns from the tickets sent out as soon as possible. Mr. Young suggested the name of Mr.

John McXally, chairman of the committee on booths, reported that everything would be ready on time. Chairman Aschaffenburg, chairman of the committee on press and printing, reported that its souvenir programme would net a good sum. It would contain a complete history of the Institution for the benefit of which the festival is to be given.

It was the tdea of the committee to send out these programmes to the police juries throughout the state, also to towns In Mississippi. In addition to the history of the institution the programme would contain half-tones of the officials of the hospital, the ladles connected with the festival, and a description of the booths.

President Barker, as chairman of the special committee on contributions, re- Scrted that, in company with Mr. Mc-Inerny, be had visited a number of firms and had secured numerous handsome gifts. Lieutenant Sullivan, of the Louisiana Field Artillery, said that the men ot his command were willing to enter Into a tournament, and suggested such a feature. The suggestion was not acted upon. On motion it was determined to authorize a children's entertainment in tbe brick building on both the afternoons of the festival, between the hours of 3 and 6 o'clock.

This entertainment will be given under the auspices of Mrs. J. N. Mazerat, the head of tbe ladies' auxiliary committee. The matter of choosing an official photographer was taken up.

Erhard Scbenek to contribute the services of his violin orchestra for Sunday evening was accepted with thanks, and referred to the proper committee that the hour for the annparancp tf tho nrnhjslrn mlcrlit- ti fixed.

On motion the subject of a tournament was referred to the committee on sports. Mr. Lafaye asked that the chair add names to the committee on sports and that the programme be completed at once. The request was put in the shape of a morion and carried. Mr.

AschafTenberg moved that the sum of $50 be appropriated for decorating the grounds, saying that Mr. Levy, the chairman of the committee, thought that would be sufficient. Mr. Weiss wished to know If this sum would be sufficient to decorate the booths, as well as the grounds. Mr.

Levy thought $100 would be sufficient do the whole work. He could return any money used. It was ruled that the matter of decorating the booths ana. of decorating the grounds were entirely different. Mr.

Klock said If Mr. Levy thought $50 was enough, that sum should be fixed. Mr. McEnerny said that Mr. Levy could make a little money go a long way.

He had been at the head of the only committee' connected with the state fair which bad returned any money as unused. Mr. Lafaye moved that the chairman of the committee on the distribution of tic-It -eta be authorized to Issue such complimentary tickets as were necessary, the ot the tickets being left to his The motion was carried. Dr. De Roaldes moved that the Confederate veterans of Camp Xlcholls be admitted free, their tmlfoTms to act as passports.

The. motion was carried. Dr. De Roaldes then moved that the state officials arxl the members of the state legislature be invited to attend. This motion was also adopted.

Special invitations will be issned. which will foe read before the legislature by the secretaries of both houses of the general assembly. The chairman appointed Geo. C. La-Sam Weiss, Chas.

President Landry introduced Mr. John P. LeBesque as the orator of the evening, who read a dissertation on "In Memory of Loretta," detailing its miraculous flight and history. Mr. LeBesque was highly complimented upon his.

splendid delivery and selection. The subject proved to be very interesting and instructive, as positive facts were brought forth which to many were unknown. The next lecture will be delivered at the regular meeting in July bv Mr. L. J.

Dolze, on "Catholic Ireland," which promises to be a great treat, as the reputation of Mr. Dolze in handling such subjects is well known.

BEHIND the SCENES; The Dictionaries Easy oa the Meaning of Unlawful Appropriations.

arli am the Only Bishop Who Has Ducal Bights. It is Different With the Archbishop Who is Next After Eoyalty. Emperor William Sympathizes With England on South African War. Winston Churchill as War Critic and Battle Field Hero. In most dictionaries and lexicons stealing Is described as unlawful appropriation.

This being the case, it is nothing more nor less than a charge of theft that has been brought against those exceedingly august personages, the archbishop of Canterbury and the archbishop of York, the former of whom bears the additional title of "primate of all England." while the other bears the title of "primate of England only." Let me at once relieve the feelings of those of my readers who may be startled by this with the explanation that the objects which these right reverend fathers are accused stealing are merely armorial bearings, and that the charges are contained lr the most recent Issue of the English "Genealogical Magazine." According to this journal, the authority of which in matters of neruldry is recognized from one end of Europe to the other, the bishop of Durham alone tias tbe right to add th ducal coronet to his episcopal ui'tre, owing to the fact that In days gone by the bishops of Durham were aiso temporal lords of the pnlatinate, and used to exercise civil as well as ecclesiastical Jurisdiction. The remainder of the bishops, and the arch-bishopri a well, have no luwtul right to anything but the mere episcopal mitre above the shield on wnich their personal arms and those of their see6 are shown, and- the action of the archbishops of Canterbury and of York In adding to the rim of their mitres the ducat coronet, in order to distinguish their mitres from those of the ordinary bishops, a piece of unlawful appropriation for which there is little or no excuse. True, the archbishops of Canterbury and York ranks with dukes, or rather before them, since tbey have the "pus" of all dukes, save those of royal birth, the archbishop of Canterbury coming immediately next to the royal family, while the archbishop of York comes third, the lord high chancellor occupying the second place in tbe table of precedence. But chat does not warrant them to usurp armorial bearings and coronets that do not belong to them, aud it is naturally difficult to blame severely other people-nobles as well as commoners for coolly appropriating heraldic devices that are the property of others, when they see the two prlmatrs of the Anglican state church setting an example of this vain nd frivolous form of dishonesty. For to use, without legal warrant, another tnan'B armorial bearings, or any portion of his heraldic devices, is exactly the game thing as when a manufacturer or merchant ues another's trademark, in Germany and in Austria dishonesty of this kind is puulshd by fine and Imprisonment.

But In England there has been so much laxity and dishonesty on the part of the official of the College of Heralds, charged with the observance of the heraldic iav. tnat the latter have virtually become a dead letter. It Is said that the two archbishops, conscious of the awkwardness of their position, propone to petition the queen to Issue a warrant asking that their mitres should be In future represented with the rim encircled by a ducal coronet, with the addition of "cresses pat-tees," to distinguish their coronets from that of the bishop of Durham. But will It not be strange to find the highest dignitaries of a church that preaches humility as one of Its cardinal virtues, and which deuouuees val agloriousuess as a sin, petitioning tbe throne for tbe right to make use of coronets, that Is to say, the emblem of the aristocracy? Emperor William has once again given eloquent demonstration of the fact that in the South African war his sympathies were all on the side of England. For at the fair held the other day in London on behalf of the widows and orphans of the English officers and soldiers who have fallen during the campaign against tbe Boer republics, h's con tr.

but Ion was of the most munificent character. At the fair each of the crack regitnentw was represented bv a special stall or booth, and for the one bearing the name of the English regiment of which he Is colonel-ln-chief he sent a case full of magnificent Dresden China, one of tbe items being a splendid table center-piece, over three feet In lengtn and nearly two high, while the others consisted of statuettes, candelabra, vases, clocks, etc. Another case contained a portfolio of engravings of pictures painted by the emperor. There were about three dozen of them, each bearing in a corner bis autograph, added to which he sent a dozen photographs of hinwclf In his English uniform, likewise signed. All these things fetched phenomenally high prices at tne fair, ana his generosity contributed In no small measure to Its success.

Young Winston Churchill has figured so connpicuously In the present war In South Africa, InjhU capacity as correspondent fpr the London Morning Post, that he has become more or lesc of a public character. As sucb, It is impossible to pass over In silence a rather strange charge which has been brought against him hy one of the most reliable and respected war correspondents in tbe field, namely, R. J. McHugh, who represents the London Standard. It seems that during the fighting at Wakkerstroom, In April last, the Montmorency scouts, with General Sir Leslie Hundle's force, came into contact with a large -body of the enemy and were forced to take to flight.

Winston Churchill was with them, and when he attempted to mount his saddle turned, and, his horse bolting, he was left helpless, precisely In the same predicament as the French prince imperial when his party was surprised by the Zulus twenty years ago. More fortunate than the prince. Churchill's cries for help were heard by one of the scouts, who, although the Boers were but fifty yrrds distant, turned around, rode back, took Churchill on the saddle behind him and carried him off In safety amid a had of bullets, neither rescuer nor rescued being touched, though the horse received a flesh wound in the neck. Mr. McHugh, who was with Sir Leslie Rundle's force, declares that he abstained from making any mention of the matter In his dispatches, in deference to the pressing entreaty of Mr.

Churchill, and that if he now writes about tbe matter It is because he has discovered that the non-commissioned officer In charge of tbe little squad of scouts reported the feat of the trooper tothe general, who has recommended the man. bearing tbe name of Roberts, for the Victoria cross, which he Is likely to receive. People In London are now asking why Winston Churchill should have endeavored to- prevent his rescue and the gallantry of mi rescuer from becoming Known by pledging his fellow-correspondents to silence. He himself has shown so much gallantry that it may be hoped that a satisfactory explanation will be forthcoming. The suit brought by the Infanta Elvira of Bourbon against her father, Don Carlos.

Territory for Lewd "Women Not to be Increased, Because the Oommittea Regards the Story Ordinance as Inviolate. The Supreme Court Hsring Affirmed It, Alteration Would Invite Litigation. The streets and landings committee met last night. Chairman Goebel and Members O'Connor, Memory, Cucullu, Frantz and Stanley present. The ordinance by Mr.

Shields, granting permission to the New Orleans and Car-roIKon Railroad Company to locate a starters' stand at the corner of Poplar street and Carrollton avenue, was the first matter taken up. In tbe same connection Messrs. Mniler and Bel, owners of property in the neighborhood, offered a protest signed by several residents in the vicinity. The committee had In hand a letter from City Attorney Gilmore, reading as follows "I am requested by nhe mayor to say that if to-night, before the streets and landings committee, the matter of a transfer shed at the corner of Carrodton avenue and Poplar street should come up for consideration, and Mr. Muller and Mr.

Bell fail to put In appearance, that tbe mayor desires that these gentlemen be summoned before the committee and be required to state what occurred between them and the mayor in the mayor's parlor, they having made tbe distinct statement that they would not appear before the streets and landings committee." Mr. E. A. Sullivan, attorney for Messrs. Muiler and Bell, said that must have been a mistake.

Mr. Muller had told him that he did not Intend to say he could not get satisfaction, but that It was no use for him to appear again. He had already appeared before the committee and explained the matter fully. Mr. Eugene.

May and another resident of Carroiltou avenue, living in the vicinity of the staffters' station, declared that the stand was a convenience. Mr. O'Sulliran maintained that the committee had not the right to grant permission to the railroad company to occupy the neutral ground. If the permission was grantea he would have to bring the matter up again elsewhere. The committee gave a favorable report on the ordinance.

TUBLIC ORDER. The committee on public order met last night, Chairman Saxon and Members Moss, Lautenschlager and McMahon present. The Story ordinance restricting lewd and abandoned women to certain limits was the subject of some talk before the committee. An amendment was in hand to permit such women to occupy Customhouse street, from Dauphlne to Ham-part. When this matter was taken up last evening, Mr.

Saxon suggested that, as tbe United States supreme court had passed upon the question, declaring the Story ordinance perfectly valid, all other measures pertaining thereto should be sent back to the council with unfavorable reporls. He also advised that the mayor be requested to enforce the ordinance lu Its present shape, meaning that all women occupying premises outside of the restricted nmlts sbould be ordered to move into them, or suffer the penalty provided iu the Story ordinance. Mr. Moss was in favor of reopening the quesciou. but Mr.

Lautensculager argued that the chairman took the proper view of tne matter and he was in accord with hm. He therefore moved for an unfavorable report on the amendment proposed to the ordinance, and It was carried. Mr. vMosa gave notice that he would bring a minority report to the council. At this Juncture Mr.

McMahon, another member of the committee, came in and was followed by Mr. B. B. Howard, attorney for property owners on Customhouse Mr. Howard said he represented owners of some fliOO.OUO worth of rroperty who desired that the ordinance amended so as to include Customhouse street, from Rampart to Dauphlne.

He thongnt the measure was too important to be dealt with bo summarily. Mr. Moss asked for a reopening of the question, but failed to get a second. Mr. Saxon stated that the supreme court of the United States had passed on (hat ordinance, and he regarded it Inviolate.

He would not give approval to the change of a single line In It. Any change wouhl give the petitioners an opportunity to contest the measure and keep it In the courts for three additional years. An unfavorable report was given on tlie ordinance of Mr. Saxon, authorising the mayor to appoint an expert to examine the books of the comptroller and treasurer. The bond of C.

Uncas Lewis as deputy city surveyor was approved. The petition of Sarah A. Watts, Chas. Long and others, asking for amendment of tne ordinance relative to lewd and abandoned women, -was reported unfavorably, Mr. Moss voting nay.

One of the tamest men at the city hall started a flurry yesterday morning that well-nigh, became a Danlc.

The city cashier was scheduled to pay the first half-month's salaries to the city employes yesterday. At about 9 o'clock a telephone mvssage reached Commissioner Moulin that the attorneys In the Warner drainage warrant case were at the civil court, waiting for the doors to be thrown opn order to take out an injunction to prevent the city from, paying out a cent. Mr. Moulin immediately spread this Intelligence throughout the hall, and in five minutes the treasurer's oflice was besieged. Some say that the treasurer and Chief Clerk Watson "ducked" in order to avoid service of notice until the force had been paid.

The things tbey are promising Commissioner Moulin are plenty.
