The little entertainment given
at Duchamp's hall last Saturday,
for the drouth sufferers, under the

not very largely attended, was a
complete success in every way.
Our people were somewhat sur
prised to see the boat from Breaux
Bridge pass through town, going
to New Iberia, for the carnival,
when there was a very brilliant
procession in st. Martinville.
Bresux Bridge, it seems to US, be-
ing of the same parish, should have
united with st. Msrtinville instead
of going elsewhere.
Last Friday night the barn in
the yard of Mrs. Victor Rochon
was destroyed by fire. The fire
was discovered at ten o'clock, and
the alarm was sounded, which
brought the fire department to the
scene of destruction, but too late
to save the burning building. The
weather was very calm, SO that
none of the adjoining building
were in danger.

IMMIGRATION.

The Washington officials of the immi.
grafton bureau are puzzled somewhat
over marked falling off in the number
of immigrant arrivals in this country for
the past few months. The arrivals dur
ing nine months ending March 81, 1897,
were 1921 against 2O9,639 for the same
period during the fiscal year of 1896.
This is a decrease of 66,6S9. During
April the decrease in New York alone was
l1,4S9, and for the first IL days in the
present month the decrease at New York
was 10000.
The commissioner general estimates
that the decrease for the entire country
ending June 80 next, will be not less than
$4,000. This is most remarkable show.
ing, and it is needless to say has not oc-
Cured in this country before.
The immigration officials have no solu-
ton for this riddle. In some respects
the figures quoted above are to be well
coined as an Indication that the perpex'
ing question of immigration may settle
itself while congress is wrestling with
this problem of first Importance to the
whole country.

which is attracting the attention of the
whole country. Instead of finding fault
with what has. been already accom- plished
along the lines indicated, it would be
much more to the point to make some
needed additions to the specimens already
on hand, and thus aid in a worthy cause
in which every CITIZEN in the territory
has an interest. With the means at their
command, the New Mexico commission
ers have done well-all that could be ex-
peeted of them under the circumstances.
Some good is sure to result from the ex-
hibit which has been arranged and more
good would be possible, were additional
contributions made by many of our citi-
zens who are we'll able to assist in a
worthy cause.

MINING CONVENTION,

The first international gold mining
convention has been called to meet in
Denver July 7, and it will continue in SEES
sion during the 9Th and 9th. The object
of the gathering will be to secure such
national legislation as may be calculated
to promote the business Interests, and de-
velopment of the resources of the mining
industry in North and South America;
to bring together mining men and in
vestors; to increase reciprocal trade
among them; to discuss such questions as
are naturally suggested by it's objects; to
cultivate acquaintance, fraternal feeling
and hearty cooperation among the vari-
Gus mining, commercial and labor bodies
represented; and especially to take under
adjustment the Importance of the crea-
ton by congress of department to be
known as the department of mines and
mining, thus securing cabinet officer
who shall represent an interest which
affects more than one third of the people
of the United States.
All papers read, and all discussions
must be confined to those sub ects which
are germane to mines, mining, and kin
dred interests.
The convention will be in no sense
partisan, and will be called to order by
Hon, Alva Adams, governor of Colorado.
The basis of representation will be as
follows: The governor of each state and
territory to name 80 delegates at large.
The county commissioners of each ooun-
to to name five delegates. The mayor of
each town and city to name five delegates,
and one additional for each 10000 popu.
lation or fraction thereof. Each mining
bureau to name five delegates. Each
mining exchange to name five delegates.
Each real estate exchange to name FIVE
delegates. Each chamber of commerce
to name five delegates. Each board of
trade to name five delegates. Each min
ers' union to name five delegates. Each
trade and labor assembly to name five
delegates. All other commercial bodies
to name five delegates.
