The May Ball.

The grand May Ball given last
Thurday night by the Opelousas Social
Club at the new Opera House was
truly grand and brilliant affair and
marks another bright page in the So
cial history of our parish and 10 the fa-
voarble record of the O. S. C. The
magnificent new Opera House was
beautifully and artistically decorated
for the occasion, and the mellow lights
from the chandeliers cast their pretty
rays down upon the beauty and gal
lantry Of st. Landry.
When the dulcet strains of Prof. r..
Mayors ochestra foated ont through
the quiet stiffness of the night fully
fifty happy couples mingled on the spa
cious floor in the may dance, which
was kept up and fully enjoyed by all
until past three o'clock the next morn
ing. We are unable at this time TO
give d more extended report of the
enjoyable event, nor a list of those
who took part 10 the festivities, as the
number from abroad was large. The
management are entitled to much
credit for the admirable manner the
affair was conducted throughout.

Nicaragua Canal Matters and the Signal
Service Bureau.
Secretary Willard of the Los Angeles
chamber of commerce has received a
letter from Capt. VIM. l.. Merry, the
apostle of the Nicaragua canal, in which
that gentleman says he hopes that the
chamber will send the full nun Der of
delegates (the chamber is entitled to
fve) to the Nicaragua canal convention
to be held in the city of New Orleans on
the 30th day of November next. Cap
tain Merry writes that he is in receipt
of letter from Senator Dolph of Ore
gon, in which that gentleman says the
United States senate is practically a
unit for the canal. Captain Merry says
he expects no serious antagonism to the
canal in the house of representatives at
the approaching session, except it may
be from some of the Populist mem bers.
The Southern Democrats are all together
for it az with the voice OF single man.
1t is to that enterprise, largely, that
Southern Democrats look for restora-
tion of the maritime commerce of New
Orleans, Mobile, Charleston and Savan-
nah, which have really never rallied
from the effects of "the late unpleasant
ness" Hence Captain Merry expects
to find no antagonism in that quarter.
Secretary Willard says that General
McCook is working like beaver with
the war department to have this city
placed on par with San Francisco as a
first-class signal service station. With
weather bureau of the first class es-
tablished here, the temperature of Los
Angeles on each day of the winter would
be known on the following day in every
American city. As a man can live here
for three weeks on what it would cost
him for five days at any of the better
class Florida hotels, the Importance OF
having the temperature of this city
properly advertised at the east is not to
be exaggerated. Let us hope that our
worthy ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS may be
successful in his efforts.

PROPOSED NEW ROAD FROM THE

A Large Party of Capitalists Go Over the

On Monday morning last large and

and mining men left Needles on two

route for the building of the above new
railway line, which is soon to be COM
menced out of COTS, station on the A.
& P. road, at the top of the hill, 80
miles west OF Needles.

Rust and Austin, capitalists and mining
men of San Francisco Mr.. Burns,
the A. &. p. civil engineer; Mr. Amsdon
of the Needles reduction works; Mr..

charge of our George Nay of Needles,
who knows every foot of the desert in
that locality like book. Their course
will be through the New York, Wander
bilt and Good Springs mining districts
on up into Nevada and Utah, and before
they return they will lay out new

the Keystone mine, to be named Man.
vile. The object of this road ia to tap
the immense resources of this vast unde-
veloped country to act as mineral feeder
to the proposed new Needles smelter.
While it connects with the Atlantic and
Pacific at Gofs, it will be an entirely
separate enterprise under different man
agement.
The great variety of resources and new
enterprises that will be developed, and
the vast extent of interest that the
building OF this spur means for Needles
and surrounding country will be seen at
q glance. 1t is understood that so or
40 miles of this road will be completed
this winter and that work on the same
will very shortly be commenced.
