WELCOME.

Written by Mrs: E. NJ. Goode. of tho Thibolan
Press Association.
Whore La1ourche,s sweeping waters
: Proudlytt to the ocean glide,
Freight Of commerce precious burdens
Bearing safely on its tide,
Stands snr honored bayou city,.
Stamped by busy Progress still,
Art and nature both as wooers
Grant their graces to her will.
Hero We greet our sisters, brothers,
Though until to-day unknown,
Friendly lips will bid you welcome,
Kindly. hands shall clasp your own.
Music, with her power entraucing.
Keeps her sweetest notes for you,
Roses frAgrant round you scattered,
Lovelier Cashmere never knew.
Man IL ever seeking pleasures i
Under far and stranger skies,
Scorning fAifer flowers beneath him,
Climbs forAlpins Eideiweiss.
Roams through medieval ruins,
6calee the peaks Of distant shores,
Revols In Athenian sculpture,
Or q buried city's stores.
Let us turn to works around us,
Marvels nature formed alone,
For our new world il 30 wOndrous,
Grander than tho sculptured stone.
Here IL our fair Louisiana, "
Beautiful to loving eyes,
But to touch her soifresponsfve
Blooms another paradise.
Come and sec our quiet bayous
Gliding through the torasts dim.
Hear through nature's vast cathedral
Feathered songsters' matin hymn.
See where green palmetto rises,
And the graceful Willows wave,
While the moss-hung cypress dropping
Bids the stream its branches lave.
Queen Of all our woods, Magnolia,
Scents the bamly summer air.
While thousand humble flowers
Blush aud bloom and wither there.
Have we here no ancient wonders,
Spots where ancient heroes trod.
But the blood of Southern martyrs
SanctiGed our Southern sod.
Honor to your grand profession,
Brothers bound by mutual tie,
CeasinR discord, DO your motto,
Good will and fraternity.
Speak the truth, the right defending,
Magnify your Office then,
Often proved, shall still be proven
Mjghtier than the sword--the pen.

Club have arranged at Van Nest Sta
tion, on the Harlem road, S9S, 900 will
be given during it's meeting of twelve
days in August, one OF the stakes, the
Eclipse, being worth go, 600 to the
winner. These are only small items
In the total, and what q reckoning is
shown in the analysis Of who pays for
it all! The gambling propensity Of
humanity in general will endure as
long az the world lasts, but the moral
lists must certainly view with no little
apprehension the hold that 1t has taken
large centers.
One special feature that perhaps the
writer's for the press notice most of all
10 the degradation of our women aud
the lowering OF the reverence for her
sex. and character once so universal an
American trait and that the contact of
the turf and this betting craze is bring
ing about. Once 1t was = surprise to
SEQ woman ut . horse race; now they
are almost - numerous as the men.
And such pass has It come to that q
descent woman can hardly risk the ex-
perience she will get at almost any OF
the respectable tracks bereabOuts. The
axiom that all men are equal on the
turf and under 1t is disastrous Ia its
application TO the gentler sex. And
the betting woman-what pen can do
Justice to her misfOrtunes Thanks to
the messenger service at the tracks and
the poolro0ms women can risk money
las we'll as men, and many a ruined
home can tell the story Of the conse-
queuces. Not Cleopatra's asp was halt
so fatal az the sting of the betting
mania. Every newspaper reporter at
the track has score Of tales Of per-
sonal experience in these shameful
bits of sporting life. Last year the
Sun correspondent at one of the meet
ings of the Coney Island Jockey Clah
sat in front of Il woman who had the
outward appearance of being the wife
of some hakd- working mechanic 10
good circumstances. She was q steady
loser during the day, seemed TO hove
plunged ON \ horse that was expected
to win the next TO the last race. She
stood up and watched him with
blanched face and bated breath as he
tried the hazard Of The run, and when
he did flash past the judges a scant
winner she sank into her seat q nerves
less bysterlcal mass as she gasped:
"My God, what would have done had
he losl?' In iho relief Of tears she con-
fessed to q woman beside her that she
had so augered her husband by
going to the races and losing money
that he had refusedto give her any
more, and bad tried every way TO stop
her. She had spent every cent she
could get hold of of her Own, aud that
day she became so desperate In her
infatuation that she had gone to a desk
where she knew he kept money be
longing to a benevolent society, OF
which he was the treasurer, aud it was
this that she had been wagering. This
year one of the first effects of the ex,
element and losses at the Brooklyn
) course was the suicide of Frank Dafiiu,
Baltimore printer. A great race,
such as can be witnessed at most of the
tracks, is y grand and inspiring sight
but the women and boys on tho stands
and In the poolrooms mar the picture
sadly. And the evil is steadily increas
ing and demands remedy. VIVA,

THE END.

Where animals--horses and sheep, tc
vit-have their teeth sound and com
olete, it is claimed there is no advantage
TO be gained by crushing their grain ra'
tions. It is otherwise in the case Of old
horses, cattle and pigs.
An English gardener claims that tc
scatter sand that has been soaked with
petroleum over the beds will keep away
the onion fly.
The stems of all tall growing gladiolus
and similar plants tuberoses, lilies, etc.
should be supported by neat stakes.
During the summer old fruit cans cut
down and nailed up to q post or on the
side of poultry house or floor will make
good places to supply water.
