A REMARKABLE STEAMBOAT
Had Mark Twain ever been pilot
on the steamboat II. j. Dickey he
would have been under the snecessi
ty of increasing the size of his late
book IN the wonders of the Mississ
ippi River.
This wonderful steamer can cut
up more capers than a one eyed
lamb, and do more singular things
than any steamer that ever entered
into Bayou Lafourclw.
She is the only boat that ever
showed enough skill to run head
foremost into a 40 foot crevasse
she is the only boat that ever sue
ceeded in hitting the piling on both
sides of Thibodaux Bridge at once;
she can break up more boxes and
plank work, built to protect the
l~evees, in five minutes, than 100
men a erect in 5 days. She is a
great boat; she can hit and smash
everything, that she has no need of
touching, and can do it so easily
that no one supposes it requires
any effort.
She ought to I've named, "Texas
Bull in a china shop"

inaugurated last Sunday evening
by an entertainment given by lead
ing amateurs of the parish. The
string band, prominent among
which were Messrs. O'Sullivan,
Hingle, Tron6 and Perrin discours
ed some very sweet music during
the intermissiOns.
The hall is very commodious and
can easily seat five hundred per
sons, as it is ninety eight feet in
length by forty feet in width. AS
the stage, with the green room, oc
cupies but a very small portion of
the building, the auditorium is con
sequently very spacious.
In the course of the evening, the
friends of the Very Rev. Pastor of
st. Joseph's Church were invited
to partake ..ot grand banquet in
the old St. Joseph's Hall, where the
tables groaned under the weight
of delicate viands and the choicest
wines. The health of the venera
BILE host was proposed in very felici
tous language by a prominent mem
Der of our bar, who elected an ap
propriate response from the subject
of his remarks.

THE BUILDING BOOM.

Not only is there is building boom
in Thibodaux, but what is decidedly
better, there is a departure from the
style of architecture which has pre-
vailed throughout our section from
time immemorial, and which can be
fifty described as the barn like type
OF building. The extreme and mon
otonous sameness of II private
dwellings is about give way to a
variety Of neat, comfortable and ele
CANT designs, with some pretension
20 architectural beauty.
OF three residences soon to be
erected, each one will consist of a
separate and distinct plan, and
when completed, will prove an or
nament to the street where they
will be..built. and will tend to create
a spirit OF emulation among others.
who may contemplate building, or
who may feel impelled to remodel
their homes in accordance with the
principles of good taste.
There is not a house in town
Which is not susceptible of being al
tered in such a way that increased
comfort and an improved appear
ance will be the result. DR.. Danse
reau's residence shows how AN ar
chitect can take an old style house
and make Oft "a thing Of beauty
and JOY forever. We have among
us many who have the means of fol
lowlngiD the footsteps of the worthy
Doctor, and we trust, that they
will be spnrred on to add to their
own comfort, and the general ap
pearance of the Town.

Weber, who had been supported
by his uncle VALERIE Roger, the we'll
known oysterman Of Thibodaux,
robbed his uncle of some one hun
bred dollars and left without bid

his own pocket.
On Tuesday he was arrested and
