salubrious climate, which chances to
be unusually inviting at this time, and
we are glad to say that Mr.. Mason en-

of the unusually fine prospects in the
way of business. He has Travelled ex-
tensiyely in the North and West, and
he expresses himself as being better
pleased with the present status, as well
as the future prospects of Lake Charles
and Calcasieu parish, than that of any

Travelled or Of which he knows. This
is saying good deal for US, and we
are glad to know that circumstances
fully warrant him in predicting grand
future for Southwest Louisiana.

Mr.. ]. G. CLARK, who has been fore.
man in the Echo Office for the past
twenty-five months, leftlast night with
his family for Baton Rouge, his old
home. They go by way Of New Or
leans in order to take in the Exposi-
ton. Il is with unfeined, yea, sin
cere regret, that we note this depart
ure. Never has it been our pleasure
to have man in onr employ in whom
We had greater confidence or who
made greater efforts to fulfill his every
trust. Mr.. Clark is high-toned gen.
tleman, the very soul of honor and in
tegrity, good writer, a man of ele-
CANT taste, as the mechanical gct-up of
the Echo under his supervision will
verify; and is most excellent
job printer. We trust the causes
which he feels make it necessary
Tor hlm to leave us may be removed,
viz: failing health, and that he may
feel it privilege and pleasure to re-
turn in the near future and take up
his permanent abode with us. Mr..
Clark in leaving here leaves a host of
friends who will indeed be saddened
on this account, and who deeply de-
plore the necessity which rudely puts
assunder the happy social relations in
which himself and family were so i'm
portant factors. Mr.. G. is sober,
study, industrious and frugal. He
bought and paid for a neat little cot
tage home during his stay here-the
savings alone of his wages. This
speaks well for the management not
only of himself, but of his companion,
who is helpmeet indeed. We wish |
them and their little boy, Calvin, all
the success possible to be attained in |
This life, and better things beyond.

One of the heaviest rains of the
season fell here last Wednesday night,
and it continued to pour down Thurs
day during the entire day. No doubt
this unreasonable change in the wealth
err will cause considerable damage to
those of our rice farmers who have not
completed harvesting their crops. But,
from what we can learn, the majority
of our rice growers made good use of
the past month Or six weeks of good
weather, and have their crops in
safe condition.

For peace and orderly conduct
the people of Lake Charles are pro-
verbal. Such things as public dis
turbances of the peace by drunken
broils is of rare occurrence, and when
happening, are committed by strangers
from other parts. Our Town Consta-
bles are yigilant and efficient officers,
and have taught those who heretofore
were inclined to want to "run the
town" that the law must be obeyed.
Especially is this SO at the railroad
depot, where, only few months ago,
drunken broils were of nightly occur
renee, but now that locality is as Or
derly as any other portion of our town.
So much for having vigilant officers.

Water Facilities Next I'm Order.


We understand that the Council
have taken the initiatory step in the
matter of furnishing the town with
plenty Of water for use of the fire de-
partment in case our town should
again be subjected to confagration.
They have concluded to sink an un-
derground tank or cjstern, at the juno
ton of Ryan and Pujo streets, having
a capacity of some 10000 gallons.
This move will demonstrate the actual
cost and practicability of this plan,
and will very likely leai to its adop-
ton for furnishing water in all the fire
districts. No doubt private individuals
on the principal streets will be willing
TO come to the aid of the Council in
this important matter.
Since the above was put in type we
learn the Council has authorized the
Mayor to contract for the immediate
building Of the tank referred to above.
We also learn that the property-hold-
ers in the vicinity, assisted by the
Council, will sink tank at the juno
ton of Ryan and Broad streets. Now
that the ball has been set in motion,
we say let the good work go on.
