Indeed, a very close contest and were It not tor the handsome present from New Orleans by Joseph Dasplt, godfather of the steam engine, the issue would still be in doubt.

Miss Maria Condon, waa adjudged the winner of the contest.

At the annual parade, that Is fixed for April 19, by every tradition, custom and tacit agreement of the various companies, Fire Company No. 1 was entitled to lead the procession, of companies. The fire department, without any warrant or power given it, usurped the authority to order Thlbodaux No. 1 to take position in the rear of the coltimn: hence its action.

Thibodanx Kire Company No. 1 is the senior company in Thlbodaux, having bees organized in 1S50.

Outside of its having exclusive control at fires, it was given no authority to interfere in any way with the tacit and common Understanding between the various companies at parades, or anywhere else. Hence its action was an attempt to assume authority to which it had no One company has been organized since the nre department was formed, so that three companies remain members.

The. action was taken by overruling the decision of Chief R. K. McBride, who properly ruled that It was a matter over which the department had no control. The department consists of two delegates from each company and a chief.

The vote of the delegates was five to three. The venerable Raymond Knight, a well known citizen, residing in and near Lock port fall his life, was burled yesterday evening In the cemetery at iiockport. This octogenarian had been In bad health for several years, which fact, combined with the weight of years, has ended his life, He has been engaged in agricultural pursuits, at which be earned a fair competence.

Hon. E. Boweri Talks Interest Inirly About Political Affairs. Bay St. Louis; Anrii I Hon.

E. J. Boners, one of the brilliant Democratic electors for the state of Mississippi In the Iste presidential election, has just returned from a two weeks' visit to Washington. He did not go otiice seeking for himself, but went in the interest of a friend, who was an applicant. Mr.

Bowers was found by the Picayune's representative at his law office on Main street, engaged looking alter legal business, which has accumulated in his absence, and given him plenty of work since' his return. The first question asked him was: "Did von see the president, and how did you like him?" Mr. Bowers replied earnestly, saying: "I found him very urbane, and much more likable than I had expected. Arround the capital it is said that he seems like a new man, and there are various reasons assigned for the change. Borne say it is the influence of Private John Allen, of Mississippi, with his never falling wit and laughable stories, while others say it is the happy marriage and the advent of baby Rulh.

The president can take and give a joke, and 1 assure you the Mississippi delegation are agreeably pleased with his new departure. I am sure of one thing, and it is that he is going tc give us a sound and strong Democratic administration, and by the end of. this year the offices of the government will be in the hands of good working Democrats men who have fought the battles of the party, and have not been given to carrying water on both shoulders at the same time. "What do I think of Maxwell the first assistant postmaster general why, I tell yon, Stevenson, under Cleveland, was not in it with the present first assistant. Talk about chopping off officials' heads.

Maxwell's ax is at it all the time. If a man wants a fourth class post office, all he has to do is to ask for it, and it will be forthcoming." Mr. Bowers was asked as to what he thought of the rule of not appointing ex ollice holders tinder the present administration, when he said: "I see no good reason or sense in It It could apply Just as well to congressmen and senators as to postmasters, collectors ot customs and other government otQcers. The people of Mississippi send tho same senators and congressmen where they give satisfaction, regardless of the number of terms served. My Idea Is that the longer a man holds an office the.

more capable and efficient be onght to be. Seeing the matter in this light, 1 1 cannot say that I am in favor of going back on ex otnee holders. The belief is, however, that there will be bnt few exceptions to the new rule, and that men who were faithful servants of the government will be Invited to take back seats. "An to the collector of the port of Shleldsboro, that is hanging fire, and from what I can learn Jndge Henderson, the present collector, will be permitted to serve out his term, which. 1 think, expires in August I am of the opinion tnt the appointee will be from one of the three sea coast counties, but as to the lucky man, there is where am at sea.

"Our congressman, Hon. Thos. Stock dale, of the Sixth district Is a faithful, and earnest worker, and doing very effective service In securim; places for his constituents. So far be has bad pretty fair success in getting his share of the patronage, and is very popular at the capital. I am proud to say that the Mississippi delegation are working In harmony, and for the best interest of the party.

I met Ex Speaker Thos. B. Seed, who is not only a bright man but exceedingly genial and pleasant. Of course I saw John Allen. If I had not it would I have been like seeing the play of "Hamlet" with Hamlet left out." jFASJS CHRISTIAN.

Probably the thousands of people who daily pass the corner of Olive and Seventh streets and gaxe at the hugex steel spider like structure being erected for the Lnion Trust Company, fail to realize the labor and risk taken in building the superstructure.

They know that the gigantic framework is stretching skyward to an enormous height, and mentally they are thankful to be on terra firma and not climbing about on iron girders 5 inches wide 200 feet high above the street level. A Post Dispatch reporter, to get an idea of how such a structure is erected and to enjoy the sensation of treading on narrow iron girders at such a dlzxy height; made a trip through the bulldiug as several gray hairs in his head attest. One can either walk or ride up to the eighth, there being a swift moving elevator which takes the material used in tiling the floors. Above that one must "All aboard!" shouted Engineer C. as the reporter got in the elevator, and thereupon the sturdy 15 horse power Melcher engine commenced to puff and snort, as if coguixant of Its precious burden.

Up shot the elevator through the intricate network of steel girders, producing a bedlam almost deafening. It was like being drawn swiftly through the bewildering meshes of a spider web, where the open work was ine most conspicuous feature. Exactly tea se xmds were consumed in reaching the eighth floor, which was partially covered with tiling and a few planks planted here and there to furnish a walk. One hundred and twenty feet below all was life and animation. People darted to and fro.

looking like mere pigmies, eagy engaged in chasing some hidden cause. Turning from the scene to gaze npon the immediate surroundings, one cannot but feel that he would rather be treading the sidewalks than cautiously stepping along a plank with a yawning space on either side, one false move meaning instant death. Above and about were sturdy workmen who fairly seemed to tread the air and would walk about on the 4 inch girders with as much abandon as the premier danseuse before the footlights. With some misgivings, the reporter managed to crawl to the west wing and ascend the stairway which led from floor to floor. After a brief season spent in rest and screwing up his courage, he reached the thirteenth story and proceeded to climb a ladder to the framework, composing the outer edges of the fourteenth floor, which Is the uppermost.

A strange sight met his eyes up there 205 feet from the ground. Looking towards the northeast, the Security building In all Its massiveness was looked down upon; looming up in all its grimy plainness to the west was the customhouse, while stretching far away was the picturesque West End, forming a beautiful panorama; the tall Waln wright. Commercial, Fagin, Odd Fellows, Bank of Commerce. Laclede, Rialto and Mercantile Club buildings all showed their roof top's below the eyrie scat of the reporter. The Mississippi river was hidden from view, the dense smoke preventing a clear view of anything eastward except the immediate surroundings.

To look below to the ground at the pedestrians, who seemed mere mites, sent such a thrill of horror through the reporter that he feared to cast his eyes in that direction again. Fifty skilled iron workers were busily engaged in fitting and fastening the girders. Some of the girders weigh as high as ten tons, but by means of steam derricks they are fitted in place in a short time. In the center of the floor is built a small platform on which stands a forge used for heating the rivets. Twenty or thirty feet away with yawning space intervening are riveters sitting astride the beams, hammering away for deir life, not a thought of fear or danger entering their minds.

Presenly one of th men sings oat in monotone, "More rivets," and while an assistant pick up an empty nail keg and holds it up, tho blacksmith picks up the red hot rivets and deftly throws thetn towards the iicg, ii to which they fall and are pick out to be quickly fitted into the apportioned spot. A miss is nevsr made, with such accuracy are the rivets All day long is this work kept up, one set of men fit tlrg and adjusting the Dennis while the other fasten them securely to'tbc lr proper place. No cne ta any unnecessary, chances, but Joe his work oar sf illy, knowing only to 3 well that the lofty placo Is not for trifling. At 5 o'clock on Friday afternoon the highest poiot of the building was reached by the placing of a SO foot perpendicular beam on the front edge of the west wiug. The men wera assembled at the spot, and Contractor Qninn.

with the agility of a monkey, climbed to the top of the girder, and, asslted by Ed Loughter, an old river man, lashed a temporary flagpole to the beam i.nd unfurled the stars and stripes. As the flag floated in the breeze the men gave three cheers, while a throng of spectators, who looked like midgets from the lofty heights, viewed the incident with bated breath.

AVER'S Gherry Pectoral Has no equal for the prompt reliei and speedy cure of Colds, Coughs, Croup, Hoarseness, Loss of Voice, Preacher's Sore Throat, Asthma, Bronchitis, La Grippe, and other derangements of the throat and lungs. The best known cough cure in the world, it is recommended by eminent physicians, and is the favorite preparation with singers, actors, preachers, and teachers. It soothes the inflamed membrane, loosens the phlegm, stops coughing, and induces repose. AVER'S Gherry Pectoral taken for consumption, in its early stages, checks further progress of the disease, and even in the later stages, it eases the distressing cough and promotes refreshing sleep.

It is agreeable to the taste, needs but small doses, andjdoes not, interfere with digestion or any of the rcfirular organic functions. As an emergency medicine, every house hold should be provided with Aycr's Cherry Pectoral. "Having used Averts Cherry Pectoral in my family for many years, I can confidently recommend it for all the complaints it is claimed to cure. Its sale is increasing yearly with me, and my customers think this preparation has no equal as a cough cure." S. W.
