MARRIOTT
St. Landry democrat., 1892-05-28

Opelousas has chartered area of one
mile square. 1t is drained on all sides
as we'll as could be desired. The sur
face is level-the streets are straight
and generally of ample width. All could
be made wider if proprietors were forced
to give more space to the side walks.
The miserable custom has been indulg-
ed of erecting yard and garden fences
within four, five and six feet of the
street cutters. The council should COM
pei all such fences to he set back so as
to give banquet of at least ten feet,
everywhere in town. Land is not vet
50 precious and valuable here as to in
volve any sacrifice to the proprietors.
On the contrary, should such change be
made it would enhance the value of
the property and impose no extra ex-
pense in fence building. Our town is
now improving in other respects daily,
and we can see every reason to bave
such changes made. We do not think
there is town of equal area, in Loui-
siana which equals this in the length
and beauty of its streets in all direc-
tions. Let the people bestir themselves
and Opelousas will become a place of
beauty and loveliness.
St. Landry democrat., 1892-05-28
Cold Weather.

We hear daily complaints from the
farmers, OF the effects upon the young
cotton resulting from late cold snap we
have had. 1t is known that the cotton
plant is very susceptible to the least
unreasonable cold, and that its growth,
slow at best, while young, is materially
retarded by it. Providence seems to be
doing for the planters that whicI, they
should, but will not do for themselves
Not one OF them will or can deny that,
too much cotton is already made to be
remunerative 10 the producer. Yet ev-
cry ono strives to make large crop,
Thereby incurriug heavy expenses, large
outlays ot money only to get nothing
for it when made. Ii may be that the
Almighty doing all thugs for the best.
will rebuke The folly of cotton growers
aud teach them to act more wisely. Let
us have more and cheaper corn, more
aud finer hogs, COVE. hoisss, etc,

The Pointe-aux-Loups Homicide.

On Saturday last, 2lst inst, Fisher, {
carpenter, killed CIGophas Comeau al
Pointe-aux-Loups springs in the parlsl
of Acadia, little while after breakfast
We have heard many versions of the
unfortunate affair, all of which differ
so much that no one can bc relied on
This much we think we are authorized
to say. They had breakfastcd together
! in friendly way. Comcau had order
! ed his horses llarnesscd and hitclicd to
his buggy. The members of the fam
| lily had, in the meantime, scattered
about the premises, aud Fisher and Co.
meau were alone in the house.
Shots were heard in rapid succession,
When tue servant who had harnessed
the team came to announce the readi-
ness to leave, he found his master lying
on the floor in almost dieing condition.
Comcau spoke to him and requested
Linn to go and notify the neighbors that,
Fisher had shot and almost killed him.
Told bim to hurry. When he left on
his errand, we are told that +. returned
and shot him twice again. When per-
sons reached him he was still conscious
and spoke intelligently of the affair.
He lived several hours after receiving
seven wounds, one in the forehead, one
through the neck, one through the
tieshy part of the arm, just between the
armpit and the elbow, one through the
wrist crushing it most cruelty, one
through the side passing through the
body, one through the chest passing
through to the spine, and still another
through the body. The body was
brought to his hefyo near this place,
and was buried in the Roman Catholic
Cemetery in Opelousas. Fisher went
to Crowley aud surrendered himself to
the Sheriff by whom he was lodged in
Jail to await judicial examination into
the facts of the case.
The affair has excited much attention
and Notwithstanding the apparent afro
city of the reported circumstances, Fish
er seems to have much sympathy.
