close and interesting game of football was
played to-day on the Wabash College
campus between the elevens of Purdue and
Wabash. When the men came on the field
1T was apparent that Purdue had the adj
vantage in the size of their rushers, but
wabash hoped to make up IN science what
they lacked in weight. Time was called
q 2lo and Wabash, by good passing and
Kicking. scored n Touchdown in twenty
minutes, but failed to kick q goal. The
ball vaeillated from one end of the field to
the other during the remainder of the first
Eaif, purdue depending on her rushers, and
Wabash on her skill In tricks n punting.
Neither side scored during the remainder
OF the half. although the heavy work of
ePnrdue began to yisibly show its effect on
the Wabash men. Score at the end of first
half. Wabash. 4; Purdue. o.
Purdue pursued the same tactics in the
second half. and scored their first touch
down and goal In just tive minutes. About
the middle of the second half Martin, quar
ter-back and captain of Wabash. and also
Brewer. h~alf-back, were Obliged to retire
because of injuries received. Wabash
failed TO score in the second half, but Pur-
due secured two additional toucb-downs.
from which beautiful goals were kicked.
Final score: Purdue, Is; Wabash, 4.
Purdue was largelty represented, there be-
ing about 800 sympathizers of the blue and
gold present. including a number of ladies.
At the conclusion of the game the Purdue
eleven were borne from the field on the

Fire Alarm.


Last Thursday morning about 7;3O
o'clock. the SCOT in the chimney of Dr..
Lyons residence took fire, which caused
an alarm. The fire department was out
In quick time. The Pelican. Babcock
was the first and only company that
reached the location of the fire before
1t was asceltained that there was no
danger. The Phoenix Hook and Lad.
der was out and ready for the fray
while the Young American fire company
was equal to their past record for
promptness-their borses being pro-
Vided by Mr.. Fraser of the U. s. livery
stable were on quick time. The steam
engine was out and the fire lighted by
Asslntant Engineer AdoIph Meyer, who
was at his post promptly.
Lake Charles has cause to be proud
OF her fire department, and should offer
every encouragement in reason to make
it even more efficient. Approaches to
the lake ought to be made so that the
engines could reach the water without
danger of upsetting Or begging. This
is matter for our council to- consider.

In the course OF an informal CONVEX
sation with Parish Superintendent of
Public Schools MoNeese this week,
the local scribe OF the Echo ascertaiued
that there have been about ten new
teachers admitted. in the parish gener.
ally, since November last. Collectively,
the teachers in the parish are about
equally divided as to sex. The majority
Of pupils in attendance at the schools
are males. Among the pupils are
several who are fully up to the maxi
mum Of the law, which is eighteen
years OF age. The whole number Of
teachers enrolled il between sixty and
seventy. OF course they do not all
teach at once; some alternate. As to
the whole number of children OF school
age and the average attendance Of those
who do go to school, the attendance is
said to be fair. The school buildings,
generally, are not in the best condition
by any means, and great deal could
be done to improve them as to con-
struction and facilities for teaching.
Next April all teachers will be required
to undergo examination in physiology
and hygiene. The coming meeting of
the Parish School Board will be some
time during the latter part of the pres
ent month.

Important HpOws,

You are hereby notified that heart
less body of regulators have been ill.,
Vestigating the matter and find that
you are becoming too numerous within
the corporate limits Of the city, either
for comfort or safety, and that unless
your owners tie you up, you will be
tempted to partake of some highly
favored meat, garnished with strych-
nine, which will, without fail, cause
your immediate departure. to that
bourne whence no bow WOW returns to
wag his tail or grOwl at passing pc
destrianF. There is no ordinance of
the city which affords your protection;
and as far Ms the parish is concerned
you only become property when turned
IN voluntarily by your owners and
assessed given number of mills on the
dollar OF your valuation. Therefore it
would be wise for those of you who
have no homes or friends to pay tax on
you the same as on any other property,
to get ont of here as soon as possible
before the banquet is spread at which
the pail of death will he closing on you.
WhlIe Lake Charles is not on
boom, so to speak, she is constantly
improving, as she has been doing for
the past twenty-five years; slowly but
sure. And we repeat now what we said
in her infancy, that she Is destined 10
be city Of more than ordinary import
ance; she will never grade less than the
third city Of Louisiana, and we expect
to see her next to New Orleans in point
Of population and commercial import
ance. We admit that this stale Of
things can be brought about much
sooner by determ ned efforts on the
part OF our people TO buiId up and i'm,
prove their condition us we'll as that If
the town. They should bear in mind
that to build Lake Charles iuto large
city she must have manufactures.
Our mayor aud aldermen have done
a grand work since their election in the
way of improving Onr streets aud open
ing up new ones in the northern Dor
ton of town, or above the court house
square. Below, or south of this point,
however, has shared the same fate from
the hands of this council that it has
from all its predecessors, The people
in this section are waiting and watching,
and have not the best fuith in the aiage,
BE patient and your turn will come
in the course OF time" A visit To this
portion Of town by our council, would
convince them that the people have Just
ground for complaint.
1t is said that hundreds of school
children at Pekip, H., are suffering
with measles, aud tho health Officers
have ordered the schools closed. There
Is also talk Of closing the public schools
at BelVIdere, ILL.,, owing to an epidemic
Of measles, scarlet fever and chick
en-pox which is raging -Erchaage
The above shows that the recent actio
Of the Calcasieu Medical Association,
with view to preventing scarlet fever
developing and becoming epidemic here
was not only timely, bnt in unison with
the operations Of other sanitary bodies
elsewhere.
