In private letter from Mr.. s. A.
FairchIld, of Sabine, in this parish, he
states that Mr.. Doyle has gtnned
twenty-four bales of cotton, twenty of
which he received and shipped to Gal
weston, and which were sold by Leon &
H. Blum, netting lO14 cents per pound.
This, Mr. Fairchild says, was largely due
to good ginning, good handling and good
seed. Mr.. FairchiId also writes that
the farmers in that section have made
a good deal of syrup from sugar cane,
and are offering it for sale.

We call special attention in this issue
to the change in the advertisement of
DusOn. The firm will now be W. W.
Duson & Bro. Mr.. W. W. Duson has
associated with him his brother, Sena-
tor G. G. Duson, of st. Landry parish.
The addition of @. O. Duson to the
real estate firm will add greatly to it,,
as Senator Dnson is thoroughly and
personally acquainted with every por-
ton of Acadia and st. Landry parishes.
Having served the parish of st. Landry
for number of years as shariff during
the time that Acadia parish was part
of st. Landry, it gives him a personal
knowledge of titles which is invaluable
to settlers and purchasers alike. This
with the energy and push of W. W.
Duson makes it real live firm.

John st. Clair, alb out IA years of age,
a stepson of Irwin, living near the
Southern Pacific depot, was found by
Mr.. Joe LebIeu last Sunday about two
miles from town in an unconscious
state. He was carried home and medi-
cal aid summoned, but too late to save
his life. He revived sufficiently, how
ever, to tell that he had deliberately
taken an ounce of laudanum, which
he threw up, for the purpose Of
destroying his life the day before.
He might have recovered from the
effects of the laudanum, but the ex-
posure in the cold rain for a day and
night, was too great. He died on Sun
day night.

The Echo had an agreeable caller
last Monday in the person of Mr..
Charles D. Sweet, the soliciting agent
for the Cane and Cotton Palace, which
is now being erected in New Orleans,
and will be ready for show during the
carnival season. The lady managers
of the Cotton Palace are taking steps
to secure. if possible, an exhibit from
each parish. They have secured the
services of Mr. Sweet to travel in its
interest, and also all the roads in the
state have agreed to transport all ex-
hibits free of charge. Our parish
should be we'll represented, and we
hope the enterprising citizens will take
hold of the matter at once, as there is
no time to lose. 1t would be well also
for the Agricultural and Horticultural
Association, which meets next Satur-
day, to give it consideration.

One of the drummers who came in
Wednesday night, commenting on the
rumored change Of schedule on the
railway, said: II think I've got on to
what the change is going to be; it is
not going to give US a day train but
more time for engineers to make the
run. 1 heard it said that the company
was going to put down 86.pound rail
all the way from Houston to New
Orleans, but I do not think that will
be done, as SO. pound rail is very heavy
and used by only a few roads in the
country, believe As came along l
saw a great deal of new rail piled along
side the track, but it did not look as
heavy as eighty-six pound" "What
do you understand by eighty.six
pounds" inquired bystander;
"eighty-siT pounds to the yardP" ooh
mol" was the reply; "eighty-siK pounds
to the foot"
