Have removed their Office to the ,commodousi!ground
floor of the building No. l59 COMMON STREET,
formerly occupied by the New Orleans Gaslight Co.
In making this they desire to express
their thanks to those of their who have
thus far extended their aid to this great enterprise
while again appealing the entire community to
promptly forward and subscribe in accordance
with their IN order TO enable the Directory to
push with renewed vgor the work already 80 far
oomp!ished to completion.
Every facility will be given, application at the
office impsrt the Information required to convince
every one that tho success of the road assured
the of 1915 900 is reached either in sub
scrptous to the frat mortgage bonds, the stock
of the Company.
In order to place their securities within reach Of al
classes of people the Company have issued scrip
limited in amount 900 snd made receivable either
stock when presented sums of OO freight
passage completion Of the road. THIS scrip is
divided into notes of $50 S2a $40 and g. transferable
by bearer, thus enabling all to aid in this mmeasuraby
important work, tie of which will largely
dourd to the interest Of every man, woman and child
in this city.
With regard to the frattmortgage bonds
doubt their being first class investment apart from
the collateral advantages which will be derived by the
of this city and that they will be regarded
by mOneyed institutions, the Company refer to
recomme alton made short time since by the Prosi
dents OF nearly all Banks and Insurance Companies
Company, when such an issue contemplated.
To show the confidence felt by these institutions in
the proposed road, their officers nd the second
mortgage bonds of the New Orleans Pacific Railway
Company "frst-cass seven per cent per annum
interest paying investment" and say they will be
received by their several institutions security for
loans with much readiness any other per
security OF the Stale of louisiana they uuhesa
tingy commend these bonds for investment"
With this inducement, supplemented by the assur-
ances that the Company obtain all else
TO place entire road in working order when this
seemingly small shall have been provided for, and
further that instead Of second mortgage, first mort
gage six per bonds substituted any citzon,
who really desires prosperity of this city, which
long retarded by the simple want of proper

of Texas Arkansas and Northern Louisiana, fail TO
respond promptly TO this appeal

Sedamsville was visited last night at
precisely u O'clock by one of the most
destructive fires that has ever occurred
there. The Fire Department answered
promptly to the call from Box 234, but
there was an insufficient supply of
water and the loss was greater on this
account.
The property devastated was South

row OF buildings bounded on the east
by Short street and on the west by an
alley. About four doors from the corner
OF short street is two-Story brick, oc-
cupied by Charles Sindlinger as daily
market, and in the rear of this building
a frame stable. The fire originated in
this stable, and was discovered first by
Sin dllnger, burning in barrel at the
rear emu Of the building. AS he has

the other the tailoring establishment Of

were totally consumed. On both sides
OF these buildings were bricks whose
walls rather protected them with the
execution Of their roofs and upper
stories, which were damaged to some
considerable loss.
The three-story brick OF Henry Hart

damaged considerably, but it and its
