The Lafayette gazette. [volume] (Lafayette, La.) 1893-1921, 1894-06-23

-Four gentlemen, having goOd
opinion of the future of Carencro,
and abiding faith in the continued,
success of cane culture, have or
ganized the "Carencro Sugar Co. -
and will Immediately commence the
erection of large mill, or crusher.
Not wishing. to interfere in any
manner, with the construction OF
thepropos ed sugar refinery, they
have determined not to manufacture
sugar this year; but will make
syrup and ship it to some factory
elsewhere, to be converted into SUI
gar. The plant is to be erected on
the Benoit property near the centre
of town and in the rear of the
church property. 1t is estimated
that when completed the outfit will
cost between eighteen and twenty
thousand dollars. 1t will be so ar
ranged as to permit of enlargement,
in case future demands should so
require. The gentlemen compos-
ing the company are Messrs. c. c.
Brown, v. E. Dupuis, and Geo. E.
Brown of Carencro, and Mr.. J. r.
Jeanmard OF. Breaux Bridge. These
gentlemen are to be congratulated
on this show of enterprise, and
everyone feeling an interest in the
advancement of Carencro, wishes
them every success.
All There! Don't forget the
excursion to Carencro on Sunday
June 24th and the grand festival
after you get there. Tell your
friends about it, so they can, as well
as yourself, avail themselves of the
opportunity Of having jolly time.
Refreshments at popular prices.
You can get a choice dinner at IS
or SO cents. Lots of pretty girls.
Don't fail to show yourself at the
concert. A large number of tents
provided at the grove in case of bad
weather. Did you ever see the
Carencro school children in their
charming calisthenic exercises ?
Now is your chance! and the
children's chorus! You never
heard anything better. Carencro
is eager to welcome and entertain
you.
Miss Rusca of Natchitoches is
the guest of Mrs. Roman Francez,
and will remain until after the fair
of the 24th.
Mr.. Thos. Isaacs of Opelousas
was in town last Saturday.
The baseball match between
the stcrack" teams of Franklin and
Lafayette, which will take place at
church grove, Carencro, on Sunday
4th, will be treat, and we'll worth
seeing.
We do not understand why il
| is that the police jury does not
furnish the road frcm Carencro to
the line leading to Breaux Bridge.
There is a certain distance, where
the trees have not even been re-
moved. The condition of this roao
deprives our town of trade thai
justly belongs to us. We trus
that our police jury will give thu
matter the attention it deserves.
There seems to be a strange
irresistible attraction for several O
our young men, in the direction o
Sunset.
Hon. A. ]. Guilbeau of Breau
Bridge was welcome visitor il
Carencro last week.
The opening of road or street
connecting the crossing just sout
of the depot, with the Mouton o
old Breaux Bridge road, is now a
absolute necessity. The prope
management of the proposed suga
mill demands it. 1t should b
opened on the east side of tn
Southern Pacific track. We tru:
that they, in whose line of duty
falls, will attend to the matter in
+ mediately.
Boys and girls, remember tt
balloon ascension next Sunday I
Carencro, June 24th.
We don't claim that our tow
is on ga BOOM" but really there
n something the matter with it.
