FINE CANE.-We have two fine stalks
of cane in the CHIEF office which we
deem worthy Of special mention. One
of these is from Mr.. Jonas 3. jacobs
Richard place.. It IS of the striped vari-
ETY., measures u feet in length and s.
inches in circumference, has q joints,
cut for the mill, and weighs u pounds.
There is scarce any difference in the cir
conference at the upper and lower ex-
tremities. It is solid looking stalk,
and one can judge at . glance that such
cane will give big yield of sugar.
The other stalk is from Mr.. J.. Emilio
St. Martins place. 1t belongs to the
Otaheite variety, being white in color
and having very long joints. This splen-
| did stalk measures 81 feet in length, ST
| inches in circumference at its thickest
part, has "a joints and weighs II pounds.
| We do not remember ever to have seen a
finer specimen of sugar cane, and it is
not to be wondered at that it attracts
the'attention and admiration Of all our
visitors.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1881-12-03

The Huntley Dramatic Troupe, whose
coming was announced in the last issue
of the CHIEF, have made arrangements
to perform seven nj gifts in Donaldson
Vile, instead of six as at first adver-
tised. They will open at Phoenix Hall
on Monday, the 10Th inst, and will give
entertainnents each night until the fol-
lowing Monday, as well as a matinee
for the especial benefit of ladies and
children at O'Clock Saturday afternoon,
the oath inst. In addition to the attrac-
tions of the regular programme, Miss
Nera Vernon, the accomplished vocalist,
will on the first and second nights of the
Ftroupe's appearance here, sing Donald
sonville's new song, "Dc5 you Ever
Think of Met" the words of which were
written by Mr.. A. J. Reynolds Of the
CHIEF and the music by Mr.. Aim6 Ber'
ceseay, an old citizen of our town. This
should of itself be sufficient attraction
to fill the hall Monday and Tuesday
nights, and If the merits of the troupe
satisfy public expectation-as we have
no doubt will be the case-the Huntley'
may expect good audiences every nigh
of their appearance if the weather is IA
all favorable.
