ROGERS, Justice.

At the general election held in the parish of S't. John the Baptist in the month of April, 1932, one A. L. Brou was elected as clerk of the Twenty-Eourth judicial district court in and for said parish. Brou, pursuant to his election, took physical possession of the office, but failed to qualify therefor by furnishing the bond required by law. When this situation was recently discovered, Brou tendered to the Governor his resignation, which was accepted, effective March 1, 1934, and a special election was called to fill the vacancy. This election will be held on April 10, 1934.
