EDITORIAL T
When will the pavement around the
court house square be finished

Our streets are bad just now and
when the Town Council has finished
with the banquettes, it ought to devote
some attention to them. The lnces-
SAINT rains have thoroughly soaked the
streets and where there has been much
hauling they have become badly cut
up. Thibodaux now has an excellent
system of sidewalks, and the attention
OF our City Fathers should now be
turned to tlleimprovementof the high
ways.

Many Improvements in the shape o
new building and repairing of Old ones
have been made and are going up in
u town, and our carpenters and other
mechanics have had a busy time of it.
In fact there has been such demand
for skilled labor, that respective en-
plOyers have some time to wait for the
supply.
This shows a steady growth in
Thibodaux, which is much better than
a mere squirting boom which other
towns have boosted of. One has only
to take a retrospective view of the
past ten or fifteen years to be eonvinc'
ed of Thibodaux's growth.

Speaking of Thibodaux's progress
sive march reminds us Of one improve
ment which is not only badly needed
but which would also great add to
the material progress of the town and
surrounding country. Thibodaux now
enjoys a first class foundry, two tip-top
boiler works, ore refractory, two
lumber yards, one bottling establish
ment, all. of which furnish constant
employment to a goodly number of
hands Z; she has. Il ho%urishing bank
which facilitates and stimulates bust
ness what she wants now is a Central
Sugar Factory which would not only
furnish remunerative employment to
her present population, buG would like
wise draw many workmen to her fold.
There may not be room enough with
in the corporate limits for such an
establishment, but there is hardly a
doubt that a suitable site could be Sc
cured on the bayou front at a short
distant either above or below the town.
The central factory system is the only
salvation of our sugar industry, and
the sooner 1t is generally established,
tie better. A factory in the inime-
date vicinity of our town would prove
of infinite advantage to our commerce
4 serve to fully develop the surround
ing country. 1t would prove of meal
culable benefit to III neighboring
sugar planters in affording them al
the latest improved machinery and
pntting at their command the best
methods in manufacturing without a
ruinous outlay of capital.
Let our merchants, businessmen and
planters take hold of the idea and
not let go of it until Tllibodaux has a
first class central factory. The SENTI-
MEL will agitate the question until we
secure a factory or it becomes con
vinced that there is not enough bust
ness enterprise in the community tc
prosecute to a successful issue the
scheme of establishing one. 1t would
like to have the views of some of it's
readers on the subject.

FOR H WEEK ENDING AUGUST. 2 '92

fOt The WEEh ENDlNG AUGIsI Z %.
The weekly rainfall has again been
given an unequal distribution through
out Louisiana. In the northern parish
es aud along the coast scant showers
have fallen on alternate days, while
in the interior, and especially in the
sugar and rice region, the rainfall has
been excessive, from one to two inches
precipitation being recorded on both
Tuesday and Wednesday in those Sec
tons, with generous showers prevail
ing during the follwing portion Of the
week.
The temperature and sunshine have
been slightly deficient in all sections.
In the latter days of the week the

CROPS.
The weeks rainfall has been lIglltest
in the cotton growing parishes, a very
! favorable fact, as dry weather was
greatly desired. Some shedding of
fruit has resulted from heavy rains of
previous weeks, and the crop continues
grassy. The %replanting of the over
flowed sections will o prove Il prof
table venture from present outlook. as
theie is but poor prospects of even halt
a crop.
The promising condition of the cane
crop continues unchanged, although
the heavy rains may cause Il loss of
~saccharine matter. Laying by has
been pushed where possible, and could
be completed in about two days more
The expressed intention of planters it
to lay aside plows, if necessary, and
finish operations with hoes.
The condition of early rice has
steadily improved under the influence
OF copious rainfall. The splendid con
ditiou of the crop and the large acreage
will probably give the greatest yield
of this staple aver known in Louisiana.
The younger growth of rice..has been
slightly damaged by zoo much water,
which covered the plant in the fields.
The weather has been very favorable
for setting out sweet potato plants and
sowing turnips, and the farmers have
generally made the most of their OPP
%portunity in that respect.
! Warm, dry weather are the ccndi-
tions to be desired in all portions OF
the State.

THE OCEAN BICYCLE,
An Interesting Exhibition Yesterday at
Santa Monica.

An Interesting Exhibition Yesterday at
Santa Monica.
Notwithstanding the dismal weather
and threats of rain yesterday, several
hundred people ran the chance of dodg.
ing showers and took the 10 p. M.
train from the Arcade depot for the big
wharf at Santa Monica. Promptly at
the advertised hour the order was given
to clover awav," and after some pre-
liminary air-splitting balancing on the
part of Captain Thomson and Harry
Harmon the ocean bicycle was quickly
dropped from the davits on the wharf,
and was soon skimming the tremendous
swells like duck. AS under the skillful
manipulation of the rider the little craft
went straight away, breasting great
rollers or making the figure s, backing
and turning to show the ease of man
agement, it would sometimes be lost
from sight in the troughs of the tremen-
dous rollers seemingly minutes at time.
Some 80 minutes were given to evolu-
tions by the bicycle when it was brought
under the davits and hoisted on the
wharf again.
Following this came the dive from the
top of pile-driver by Prof. Harry A.
Harmon. This was both pleasing and
thrilling exhibition of grace and nerve.
From narrow plank projecting from
the top of the pile-driver some five or
six feet over the water 80 as to safely
clear any projections beneath, young
Harmon made his somersault, turning
easily in the air and dropping like a
plummet straight as an arrow into the
boiling food over so feet below. He
rose like cork and laughinglr declined
the rope thrown to him and swan some
80 yards to where a ladder hung from
wharf. This was nearly out of reach,
but watching his chance, aided by a
huge roller and a skilful leap half out of
water, he was successful in catching
the lowermost rung, and was moment
later on the wharf again.
The Southern Pacific people, in spite
of the threatening weather and nu-
usually high sea, carried out their ad-
vertised programme to the letter.
