At the end of Esplanade street there stands
a delightful villa, surrounded by garden
where rarest exotics and native flowers blend
in sweet perfume. This is owned by the new
Louisiana Jockey Club, the members Of which
are determined that they and their friends
will enioy all that nature, capital, art and our
genial climate have placed at their disposal.
Every Saturday band Of music has been en-
gagged to give an evening open air concert,
and to-day the club has invited its friends to
