Dr. c. L. Gregory, says that there is not a word of truth in the item printed in Q Yuma local paper of Wednesday, last, in re- gard to his building "sanitarium'' on the lot he purchased at the "el- bow" on Orange Avenue, nor in the plans given, nor the time in which it is to be built. He says that he bought that lot for home, and upon it he will build his private residence. The building will be of brick and two stories high, and he will have it ready for occupancy Oct. 1st, when his family will come to Yuma to re- side. The pr. says that he has been offered a ten-acre tract on the Heights, for a sanitarium, and that he has the matter of building one under consideration, that when he returns to Yreka, he will place the facts before his associates, and that if they coincide with him they will carry out the project.

Is a common exclamation at this season. There is certain bracing effect in cold air which is lost when the weather grows warmer; and when Nature is renewing her youth, her admirers feel dull, sluggish and tired. This condition is owing mainly to the impure condition of the blood. and it's failure to supply healthy tissue to the various organs of the body. It IS remarkable how susceptible the sys- tenn is to the help to be derived from a good medicine at this season. Pos sessing just those purifying, building up qualities which the body craves,
 Hoods Sarsaparilla soon overcomes that tired feeling, restores the appetite, puriies the blood, and, in short. imparts vigorous health. Its thou sands of friends as with one voice declare "It Makes the Weak Strong.

THE EXCURSION.

The excursion given on last Sun
day from Thibodaux to Abbeyille, in
the Parish of Vermilion, proved
quite a success, both socially and
financially. Had it not been for the
drawback caused by the heavy rains
of several days duration Of last week,
and the gloom that settled at and
around our poor unfortunate sister
town, Lockport, the success would
have proven much greater financial.
ly, for quite a large number in that
neighborhood had decided to take 10
the excursion.
When the train left Thibodaux,
only about ITS %excursionists were
on board, when fully 400 were ex-
pected. This somewhat disheartened
our fire laddies; but they cheered up
by degrees as they proceeded on to-
wards their destination, and large
numbers of pleasure seekers boarded
the train at every station. When
the train left Iberia over 500 excur.
sionists were on board, and instead
of a failure, our fremen came ont
ahead with q snug little sum.

l:30 p. H., and were very kindly

written by Messrs. Dan Talmage's
Sons, New York, to a planter friend
and take therefrom certain extracts
which are Of general interest and
worthy consideration of every rice
planter, in fact the principle main
tains, and is capable Of application,
whether the product be cotton, Gu
gar, rice or any crop which the pro.
Queer makes to sell. Their indict-
ment of the planters mad scramble
to sell last fall, is just. They IN.
doubtediy would coDcede that the
first in market did well and only
speak of the matter in a general way.
that is to say, while one or the ex.
ceptional man profted, the many, i.
e. ninety and nine out of the hundred
suffered from the policy pursued.
Everyone who has the rice indus
try at heart, desires that, the pro-
Queer shall not only get fair bat
good returns for time, labor and
money expended, and can but lament
the depression of prices during the
past year. Planters are apt to blame
every other man, forgetting each
may have contributed by his a~ctioo,
to the resulting low prices. For
instance, take last year, when the
crop opened everybody wanted to
sell and as a result, fully twice as
much as the market could take was
showed into New Orleans last Sept.
Shipments were continued at an
excessive ratio throughout the season
and as a result of this constant pres
sure, the market steadily declined.
1t simply followed the well'known
law pertaining to supply and de.
mand-o over supply makes a low
range OF value"
Better prices are now being OBJ
tanned and we believe there can be a
further raising of values, but it can
only be done by a spirit Of cooper
alton. There. are consumers for
every sack of rice raised this. year.
What is to be done? Feed the de-
mand. that is, ship in proportions to
meet the requirements of market"
"There is no questson but that the
losses by drouth in Louisiana, and
cyclones On the Atlantic Coast will
favor a much higher range of values
than last year and rebound to the
benefit of those who have been for
tnnate in making a crop. Whatever
the normal value may be, VIC would
urge upon planters the wisdom of
deliberation in the disposition of
their product, and you and your
planter friends can serve the crop in
general aud perhaps advance your
own interests by shipping In monthly
installments, thus preventing over
supply at any given time. By this
course the highest average of values
is more likely to be secured"
We believe that the advice given
is sound and if acted on will secure
desired results. Some might say
"hold back the CROP" and this how
ever, would probably defeat the
object. Values might be undulY
enhanced but as everyone would then
naturally desire to sell, there would
be haste to realize, thus causing a
swift reaction and terrible downfall
in prices. approximating or similar
those of last year. What is wanted
is wise, concerted, Conservative &C.
tion and the course suggested is
natural and practical, i. e.. feed the
demand market With elaboration
ship in monthly installments.
