SUMNER SEASON IN MISSISSIPPI CITY.
One of the pleasantest, if not the pleasant
est resorts on the gulf coast is Mississippi
City, principally because it has a magniti-
cent hotel, known throughout the land as
Barnes Hotel. The buildings were con-
structed by an architect of considerable
notoriety, and consequently possess the
many little advantages which are required
of a summer house. The proprietors,
Messrs. j. d. Mayer g. Co., possess the
requisite knowledge to keep hotel, and
have resolved that this season they will
pursue liberal policy, such as must give
satisfaction to sojourners. Old ideas of
and detrimental.
The establishment will be in complete
open order on the fifteenth instant, when
the managers will be ready to receive and
faithfully accommodate over eight hundred
guests. Every peculiar appointment has
been looked to, and the several departments
placed in charge of competent hands. Major
W. A. Hurd will be found in the office,
which fact alone is sufficient to entiee
visitors He will devote the entire season
to entertaining those who call on him. Mr..
Mayors has been so long in the house and
business that he is quite miserable unless
he is engaged making some one comforta-
BILE, and he has not forgotten single item.
Picnic parties will find this house partieu-
larly good, as quarters can be furnished
them sufficiently large to give privacy. For
further information, see the advertisement
and pay long visit. Our readers will not
be disappointed.

Lake Borgne is pretty well tinged. BY this

THE STREET CAR CAsEs.-The following
evidence shows another phase in the manner
of managing street cars when in motion.
The victim was John Silva, nineteen months
old, run over and crushed to death by car
of the Canal and Claiborne streets line, near
Elysian Fields street Saturday:
James Robertson sworn-Resides at No.
523 GoodchiIdren street; / was standing at
the door of nv house looking at<the car
coming, when saw two children running
in front of the car; the largest one STUN
bled three times before it got off the track;
i thought both had got off the track, but
found that one had been run over; told
the driver to drive on little further, so
that could take the child from under the
car; he did so; the car had completely
crushed the head of the child; the brains
were spattered over the track; the driver
was standing on the platform, his back to
the mule, and the reins in one hand;
think he must have made change; there
were two passengers in the car when the
cry was given to stop; the child was already
run over: the driver was looking into the
car at the time the accident happened.
Charles Rover sworn--l was standing at
the corner of Goodchildren and Elysian
Fields streets; heard the. cries OF child;
looked in the direction OF the car; saw the
front wheel pass over the cniid; lmmedi-
ately blew whistle and told an officer; L
saw the body of the child drop from the
wheel; on my arrival the driver was sitting
in the doorway of the car in charge OF an
officer who had arrested him; the driver
was looking into the car at the time OF the
accident; saw no children hanging on to
the car.
The parents reside at No. 529 st. Claude

Weather and Crops.

The Richland Beacon has this to say
about the weather and the crops:
This week we presume finishes the plant
ing in our parish, or, at least, our farmers
would have finished if it had not rained so
much. They are about month behind
now, and if the rain continues there is no
telling how far they will be behind at the
end Of the month.
May-day was not bright one-not very
favorable for planting, and the buffalo
gnats and mosquitoes had all the reveling
to themselves in these parts. Nevertheless
the air was redolent with perfume of flow
ers and the forests resounded with the
shrill notes of the knocking birds.
Notwithstanding the continued rains, the
water has fallen rapidly and the river was
again within its banks at the first of the
week.
Since the above was in type Beuf river
has risen httle-caused by rain we pre-
sumo.
The Brasos Eagie, published at Bryan,
Texas, says:
The REPUBLICAN has struggled onward
and upward until it is now the best news
paper, in every sense of the word, published
in New Orleans. AS an exchange we prefer
it to any other paper published outside of
the limits of our State.
We thank the Eagle for the compliment.
