THE SITUATION IMPROVED.

London. November 10.-The Marquis
OF Salisbury, the Prime Minister, has
written to the treasurer of the Armen-
ian relief fund. explaining the measures
taken by the British representatives in
Turkey in behalf of the Armenian mis-
s:onar:es at Sass0un, who were accused
Of melting the Armenians to revolt. The
latest reports from the British consul

requested safe conduct to their homes:
Mr.. Cole wishes TO go to Bitlis, but will
shortly return to MO0sh, where he will
take charge of further work in aiding
the Armenians.

A FINE ATTRACTION.

Nfrth and jOllity will reign supreme
at the Grand the last half if this week.
There is something about a farce COM
edy that takes, and big doses Of humor-
istic elixir have been injected into
"Jolly Old Chums." Thos j. Grady and
Pudd Ross are two of the funniest
comedians on the stage to-day. They
enact the two leading comedy roles.
Miss Carrie Lamont. the charming
soubrette. whose many admirers will
gladly welcome her in part that gives
her ample room to display her many
talents. In fact, the show is good all
through. clean and neat, and uproarous-
Nv funny. Seats at the box Office.
OPERA HOUSE ATTRACTION.
"All the Comforts of Home" the play
which William Gillette has constructed
for laughing purposes only, and which
will be seen at the Opera House next
Wednesday and Thursday, is the motto
of an impecunious young gentleman,
who. being left in charge Of his uncle's
London house while the latter takes
his family abroad, proceeds to raise
the wind" by renting it out as furnished
lodgings. He not only raises the wind.
but several storms as well, for, by the
time the real owner returns, the house
is tenanted by an eccentric musician, a
wild young man, comic opera queen,
an elderly masher his jealous wife and
pretty daughter, with whom the land
lord pro TEN is desperately in love, for
getful of his former engagement to his
cousin. With this array Of characters,
not forgetting the faithful fact"tum
who gets alf," Mr.. Gillette has arrang-
ed numberless cOmical complications
which keep the audience in an uproar
from the rise to the fall of the curtain
in each Of the four acts.
THE WICKLOW POSTWAR.
THE Wicklow Postman," an Irish
melodrama which the actor and author,
Mark Price, has written for Eugene
O'Rourke. is a slight, if not q radical
departure from the conventional Irish
play: it ignores English soldiers and
Irish rags. The famous blackthorn
does not hold at bay a posse Of police,
nor does it demolish an English regi-
ment. That blot upon the Irish race
the ever ready infOrmer is conspicuous
by his absence; he has done yeOman
service in the past, but he can be
spared from the pages of an Irish story
of to-day. Supported by a company
who can act and sing, with new scenic
outfit. we have no hesitation in record
ing the fact that Mr.. Eugene O'ROurke
will be a welcome "Postman" when he
visits Wheeling and appears at the
Grand Opera House on Monday and
Tuesday evenings, with q special matt

Let's Have a Popular
Vote.

Editor Messenger:
From the proceedings of the last
last meeting of the Town Council,
it is learned that there is quite a
handsome sum in the town trea-
sury. As the streets are in good
condition, and the drainage we'll
nigh perfect, there seems to exist
no reason why this money should
not be utilized for the building
and repair of sidewalks. There is
nothing that would improve the
looks of Main street so we'll as
fine, substantial walks. A start
could be made from the railroad
crossing and build as far as gen.
erous appropriation would last.
Every year as funds accumulate
extensions can be made. Under
the business methods employed by
the present administration, there
will always be a surplus in the
treasury at the end of every year,
and in few years we will have
side walk covering every portion
of the town, Who's in favor of
this measure? Wouldn't it be a
good thing for the Board of Trade
to take hold and agitate. It's a
good thing and deserves to be
pushed along. XXX

Lafayette has gone ahead of
us in the refinery business. We
have given much attention and
space to the discussion of the ad-
vantage of a refinery at this place
to the planters, and to the profits
to be derived by those who would
invest their money in that enter
prise. But our people seem too
timid to put their money in such
an enterprise under the present
condition of things. Our friends
of Lafayette seem holder than we
are. and we believe they are right,
the manufacturer who buys the
raw material according to market
quotations has nothing to fear or
to risk; it is the producer of the
raw material the planter who
run all the risks of an overcrow-
ded or deprecated market; the
manufacturer only pays the raw
material at price that will all low
him to make his profit accord
ing to market quotations without
regard to the raw meterial pro-
Queer, if he loses or make money
never trouble the manufacturer
who buys the raw product. Then
why are our people afraid to do
like our neighbors of Lafayette,
put themselves together and build
q refinery that would do so much
good to this entire community and
pay handsome interests to the in
vestors.

A GOOD THING, PUSH
IT ALONG.


Through the we'll directed ef-
forts of the st. Martinville Board
of Trade the commerce of the
town has been revived and much
of the trade which had gradually
drifted to other centers has been
redeemed.
Today with the cry of hard
times heard from all over the
Union; the poor crops of last sea-
son, and even the loss of all ex-
pectation for the payment of the
bounty, the town still proudly
holds it's head up and not a single
failure has been recorded during
the year. Though it cannot be
claimed that the Board of Trade
is entirely the cause of this
change, it must be admitted that
it has by bringing the merchants
together secured their united &C
ton upon all enterprises further
ing the commercial advancement
of the town. It has demonstrated
to them that anything that bene-
flied the whole town benefited
each individual and that there is
room for all that are engaged in
business if they act together in
attracting trade.
There yet remains trade which
rightly belongs to them if mer-
chants through the Board of Trade
would undertake to work for it
On the other side of Spanish Lake
there lies a strip Of land separated
from this town by the Marais du
Lac Marsh which belongs to the
Parish of st. Martin. The land
is as rich as can be found in the
state, the inhabitants are very in
dustrious and thrifty farmers who
make fine crops, own their own
farms, and do a good deal of
truck farming.
They have often signi6ed their
preference to do business in st.
Martinville as the distance is only
three miles, and most of their
family relations reside here and
they have offered to defray the
expenses for the erection of dikes
at both ends of a bridge. A CON-
mittee appointed to estimate the
probable cost of such a bridge
had placed the cost at $1,000, 90.
A few of the merchants had at
one time looked into the matter
but as there were only a few the
enterprise dropped for the want
of interest.
The Board of Trade composed
as it is of all the merchants and
people interested in the welfare of
the town, If it undertook the mat
ter would very soon overcome any
little objection which would be in
the way. Let us hope that at its next
meeting it will recognize the
benefits that would accrue by op-
ening this avenue of trade which
can safely predicted to be a "lit-
tie gold mine" to the commerce
of st. Martinville.
The Police Jury will no doubt
take cognizance of the demand
of those people on the other side
of Spanish Lake for direct COM
munication to their Parish seat to
which they are justly entitled.

Yes, We Are Climbing,

That excellent journal and true
friend of its people, the New Ibe-
ria Iberian, published an article
last week, wherein it notes the
progress attained by the people of
this town since the inception of
our Board of Trade, very correct
ly attributing our present pros
perity to the well-directed efforts
of that body, and calls upon its
own people to organize in a SINH
lar manner, because the field ex-
tends a pressing invitation, and
promises an abundant yield; and
the MESSENGER adds, knowing the
dormant resources of that town,
the yield will be proportionate on
ly to the efforts displayed.
It is well-remembered that a
few years ago the business of this
town was at low ebb, the still
ness in our stores so greata to earn
us the reputation of existing in a
community whose quietness made
an ordinary graveyard a carnival
of gaiety in comparison, the mer-
chants bemoaning the depressing
commercial stagnation, 80 that we
had reached about that condition
of disgust, Indifference, and car
ing not the whirl of a top what
the future held in reserve.
It will, also, be recalled that
professions of carts were daily
seen vending their way to neigh
boring towns-going empty and
returning loaded. The sight was
a painful one to our commercial
people, but they seemed to bear
the pain with fortitude that was
as remarkable for its patience as
it was for its incomprehensible
do-nothingness.
In the course of time new blood
was infused in the town. Young
men, with a future to carve, star
ted up in business. They did
not fritter away time in lamenta-
tons, but grasped the situation,
set to work with unity of purpose
and untiring zeal, and made it
How towards their own doors.
The time has not been 30 remote
when if one wanted q suit, to a
neighboring town he must go; if
he wanted a barrel of -four or a
shoulder of meat, he could save
money by going to some other
town for it. That day has passed
away. To-day you can buy any,
thing and at a rate as cheap if not
cheaper than in any town in the
state.
Some years ago there we're few
stores in town, and most of them
dealing on the credit system. To-
day there are more business hou-
ses to the population than any
town in Attakapas, end they deal
on the cash system.
1t may be asked how has this
era of prosperity been brought
about? There are several causes,
but the main ones were; first the
civic pride of the people was ap-
pealed to; second, goods and prices
were made right; third, recreation
and amusements were offered, and
the result is, hardly a dollar goes
out of town for trading purposes.
While the MESSENGER does not
claim that the Board of Trade is
the direct cause of this happy
state of affairs, it is the truth to
say that it was an important fac
