Fighting the Bagging Trust.

The North Louisiana Aricultural So
ciety recently adopted the following
resolutions
Resolped, By the North Louisiana
Agricultural Society, that the recent
combination, known,tas the bagging
trust, is another scheme to fleece the
farmer, the supporter of the wo,ld
Resolped further, Phat We recommend
to farmers everywhere to connteract
said scheme as far as possible by adopt
ing any other material as a covering OF
their cotton, even at an increased cost.
Resolred further, That we heartily
recommend radical charge in the
manner of wrapping cotton for market;
that it should be pressed into l00-pound
bales and wrapped with cotton itself
that while the cotton would be handled
more easily and deeently the demand
for the material would increase and
better prices for cotton wonld follow as
consequence.

N. @. States: The new cotton bag
ging was subjected to fire test yester
day which was very satisfactory to
those who witnessed it. Bales of cot

found that the jute bagging burned like
tinder while it was with the greatest
difficulty that the cotton bagging was
made to burn.
The increase in the number of deaths
by yellow fever and new cases in Jack
sonvilIe is startling to contemplate.
Upon the basis of the present estimated
popnl-st of 10000 souls, the seven
teen deaths reported in that city yes
terday are equivalent to some $40
deaths daily in city like ours, to
almost 1000 in city of the size of New
York and to over 5000 in a city of the
population of London. No such terri
BILE death rate was probably ever before
known-not even during the great
plague in London andlConstantinople.

The Excursion from Thibodaux.

On last Sunday at :55 o'clock D. m.
the duly advertised and expected ex-
cursiOn train, gotten up under the aus
plces OF the two Fire Companies of
Thlbodaux, reached our depot, There
were nine coaches crowded to their ut
most capacity, and containing at least
1000 persons from different stations on
the route. Thibodanx alone sent 500,
and If there had been a sufficient mum
Der OF cars to have seated the appli-
cants on the way, Opelousas would
have had not less than 1900 visitors on
that day Two brass bands, the St.
Johns OF Thibodean and the Lafayette
hand, came up on the excursion, which
with the Washington and Opelousas
bands, gave continuous flow of mar
tlal music for the interesting occasion.
The Opelonsas tiremen met their visit
ing brethren at the depot, and es-
eorted them to the Court House where
Mr.. Il. F. Meginley in behalf of the
absent mayor extended the excursion
lists cordial welcome with "the free
dom of the city" After stirring piece
OF music from the bands, w. c. Per-
rault, Esq, delivered q more elaborate
speech in his usual feliciteus eloquence,
welcoming the visitors to our "Ptairie
City" Maj. S. t. Grisamore of Thi-
bodaux responded in fitting and hap
Ply manner to the kindly reception
rendered the visiting firemen and
ezcursionists. A procession was
then formed, and, with the
bands discoursing the choicest Sc
lections of music, marched TO the Social
Club Hall where splendid repast, in
the way Of a cold lunch, was spread for
the visiting firemen. Here, Laurent
Dupre, Esq, the ever ready orator,
again welcomed the firemen and citi
zens of Thibodaux to the hospitality of
our people and their comrades in Opel
ousas. The sentiment was happily
responded to by Mr.. Fl. N. Coulon of
Thibodaux.
After satisfying the wants of the in
ner man, the visitors were taken in
charge and shown the different points
of interest in our town Later the
members of the Social Club rendered
the use of their fine piano and impro
vised an agreeable hop at their spacious
Hall for the benefit and enjoyment of
the excursionists, which added materi
ally to the pleasant events of the day.
The Washington and Opelousas bands
also furnished some of their choicest
selections of music for the dancing, and
We'd with our other citizens in giving
the cexcursionists u warm and royal
welcome. Many of the excnrsionists
brought their lunches, which they
spread and ate under the beautiful oaks
on the courthouse square. All of our
hostelries had made ample preparations
to entertain a large crowd, So none
could have gone away hungry
At 6.55 p. m. the excuraionists de-
parted for their homes, and doubtless
Spent,a very pleasant day, rs there was
not III unpleasant incident to mar u
full enjoyment of the occasion.
The firemen of Thibodanx must have
netted $500 oa 5000 for their exche-
quer, by the excursion.
