The Fire Oh Tuesday Night.

At about 1880 or o'clock on Tues
day night last while great many were
still at the supper table, the fire alarm
was sounded, and people from every
part of town were soon making
their way in the direction of the fire,
which proved to be the grocery store
of Mr.. G.. 3. Andrus on the corner of
Main and Landry streets. Mr.. Andrus
had few minutes before put all lights
out, and was on the way to his home
within the corporate limits, when the
cry of fire reached him. The Fire
Department,-two engine companies,
one white the other colored, and Hope
Hook and Ladder company, were soon
upon the ground doing valiant service
toward protecting adjacent properties.
The cause of the fire is unknown. Mr..
Andrus' entire stock, valued at $4,000
was consumed. 1t was insured fol
$4,000. The building, valued at 5000
or $500, was the property Of Mr.. C.
Deitlein and was uninsured.
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1882-04-22
Improvement.

Our town has more or less improved
in every respect. New residences are
going up in the central and southern
part of town, and plans have been ex-
ocuted for the erection of a number OF
store houses of considerable size, two
story millinery shop among the
number. The largest premises are
being divided into smaller lots and
neat and substantial buildings added.
The erection of neat cottage on
Sheriff Duson's back lot, together
with new brick Jail in course Of con-
struction, has added much to the looks
of Market street.
The upper end of town has improved
in many respects within a few years,
Main and Court streets especially.
On Main, above Julien Claude's, neat
and roomy store building shows up on
the right, and on the left, DR.. Robin
sons new residence, this side of his own
own domicil, (the old PLATE property
is neat and roomy building two high
with a wire fence in front. Business in
that part of town is brisk. Blacksmiths
and wheel wrights are busy, and tell us
that they have all they can do.
On Court street, above Felix Lesas-
sier's, Mr.. John Medicis has built a
neat cottage with two rooms and a
portico in front. There are now very
few lots in that part of town unenclosed,
and scarcely one on which there is not n
building. There are, however, few,
but on every one there is either a
thriving patch of potatoes, corn or
something of the kind. Not as it use
to be. Every other lot in that locality
was not only houseless but unen-
closed. Besides this, merchants there
tell us that since the railroad was built
business has increased, and prospects
are more encouraging. Mr.. Lesassier,
highly respected colored merchant,
and an old subscriber to the DEMOCRAT,
says that he can vouch for the correct
ness of the above statement, as lie COM
menced there few years ago empty
handed, and is now the owner OF sew
eral thousand dollars worth OF proper
ty,-all paid for out Of the profits of a
very limited business. Further up, we
learn from Rev. j. F. Raymond that
he is making arrangements for having
the Catholic Church re-painted and a
new and substantial fence put around
the yard. Aside from the improve
ments Immediately in the town
nearly all the vacant lots in the cor
porate limits near the railroad have
been bought up by parties able to i'm
prove them, and there is no doubt but
what that as we'll as the center OF
town, will be a business portion. AL
things considered, we deem this q
change for the better.

Personal MENTION.

DIR. Rufus Webb, of Plaquemine Bru-
lee, called at our office on Friday of this
week.
Mr.. E. Lemontey, one of the prospe
rous Washington merchants, called on
us this week.
Mrs. Charlie Thompson and her
mother, Mrs. Sumerlin, left for Ala
bama last week.
Mr.. R. S. Wilkins, of Washington,
called on us this week and reports the
water falling rapidly.
Mr.. w. w. Duson and DR.. Bennett
E. Clark, both of Plaquemine Brulee,
were in town during the past week.
Mr.. Edmund Quirk of Garland Sta
ton, was in town on Sunday last, and
looked as happy as bird on wheels.
Mr.. j. L. Morris, of Churchville, has
been spending a couple of weeks with
his family at this place. The water is
falling rapidly and he expects soon to
return to his business.
Our old time friend, Capt. G.. NJ. May
is again with us. He looks younger
and happier than ever, and though be
gets about in a hurry, We'll say he's
here for one issue at least.

We learn from one of our hotel men
who has just returned from New Or
leans that hundreds of heads Of cattle
which were drowned by the overflow
have been lodged by the back-water
between Gantt's Mill and Taylor's Fer
nv and that the authorities at Washing
ton have detailed men to go down in
skiffs and turn them loose. He says
that in spite of the flood people on the
Atchafalaya seem to be contented and
happy. He saw whole families on
RATS. the men playing "seven-up" or
spoken" and women dancing the reel"
in fact, that man and brute seemed
to enjoy alike the sight Of steam
boat children and horses looking out
of windows together, and cats on
top of roofs running from edge to edge
taking in the dimensions OF the hurrl-
cane deck.

The garment known as the divided
skirt for ladies is thus described by
New York correspondent of the Chica-
go Herald: "This new rig is curiously,
wonderfully and most mysteriously
made. The pattern We were shown
was composed Of changeable brown
and carrot colored material in silk and
wool combined. The waist is a loose
blouse, with a cut away jacket over it,;
an overskirt long and looped very like
another, only the top is closely tucked
lengthwise into the waistband. But
the underskirt is the novelty. In the
words Of the showmen, here is where
the gazelle comes in. When one looks
at it there is apparently only plated
skirt, but when you attempt to put it
on, then the trouble begins. 1t won't
go over the head, for the skirt is in two
wide legs, to be put on as trousers,
worn as trousers, without the incum-
brance of petticoats. 1t is proposed to
have a sort of patent elevating cord
attached to lift the things when re-
CURED"

Educational Advantages.

---oe--~--
There is probably no town in the
State of its size as we'll provided for in
this particular as is Opelousas. There
are two public and five or six private
schools.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Of this class, there are two in flour
ishing condition in our town, one white
and the other colOred. The white
school is under the superior manage
ment of Miss HELEN Perkins, a refined
and acknowledged educator in our
midst. On account of there being no
school building of sufficient size to &C
commodate it, the departments are
taught in separate houses and different
parts of town, Miss Perkins in charge
of the Grammar Grade, Mrs. r. Mayer
the Itermediate, and Miss Effie Ealer
the Primary Grade. The attendance
in each of these departments is full,
having in all three something over one
hundred and thirty pupils.
The colored school is taught by Mrs.
Emile Donate with two assistants and
has an attendance of something over a
hundred pupils.
PRIVATE SCHOOLS.
Under this head and deservedly of
note, is Mrs. Hayes School For Young
Ladies'" This academy is under the
immediate supervision of Mrs. NJ. M.
Hayes with able assistants. The
attendance is large with full accommo-
dations, and the best educational advan-
tages.
Among the Catholic schools of the
place, is the old and popular male
school known as est. Mary's Academy
which is under the direction of Rev
j. Francois Raymond, with three as
sistants. It is under able administra-
ton and deserves the success gaurran-
teed it by the patronage heretofore ex-
tended. 1t also has good daily attend
ance and a number of boarders.
The immaculate Conception Acade-
my," is in a fourishing condition, hav-
ing thorough Faculty, good local
patronage and several boarders.
est. Joseph's School," a colored con-
vent on Union street, was established
few years ago, and although the at
tendance has not been large, is doing a
a good work.
We have, besides these, Franklin Col.
lege," situated in the outskirts of town
This school is in a healthful locality
with good water and ample accomoda.
tons. Capt. j. NJ. Taylor is in charge
and being teacher of considerable
experience, gives general satisfaction
So, there should be no complaint OF
the part of parents in regard to edu
cational advantages.
