SMALL POX.

We learn that there are a large
number of cases of small pox in
The upper part of the parish,
which is spreading rapidly.
There has been cases of small
pox in that section among the ne
groes since last year, and due to
the neglect Of the health authori-
ties it has spread until it has az
tackled several white persons.
The health authorities should
take immediate steps to check the
spread of the disease, for if allow
ed to run until next summer, we
may be threatened with a serious
epidemic.

THEY ARE DROWNING.

Like a drowning mal,, who catches on
to every little branch, that might help
to save him from his doom. the ring
leaders are looking for every opportuni-
ty whatever, either good or bad, that
will save them from the downfall that
Is staring them in the face. Such was
the case last Sunday at Breaux Bridge,
when the ring leaders. passed a resolu-
ton, that there would be two boxes at
each pole for the primary election to be
held on December 10th next; one box
would be used for the voters in general
and the other would be set for those Of
the voters who. according to their Op-
ton they would find doubtful and there

to the decision given by Grand Pa. OF
course, every twig and branch In the
ocean will not save a drowning man:

mond.
1t is estimated that the profits of the
Baltimore club this year will amount to
$4,000; Last year $4,000 was lost, even
though the Orioles finished second.
The fact that the Bostons are not lead

due to the failure of Nichols and Lewis to

Their case seems almost hopeless now

The announcement is made that the
promoters of the new league will meet at
St Louis next Thursday and launch their
organization on the troubled sea of base
ball. It is limited that LOTUS and Comis-
key will attend the meeting, and it is also
probable that President Johnson will be
an interested spectator. IT is given out
on what seems good authority that the
new league will place clubs in st. Louis

calling McGoYern by name, told him to

warmly by the hand and then turned and
left the ring with his seconds. He was
almost carried to his dressing room.
Meanwhile Palmer revived sufficiently to
walk from the ring to his dressing room
in the other corner of the building.
WHAT THE BOYS SAID.
Palmer had no excuses to make and
said he had nothing to say in reference
to the bout, any more than that he was
surprised at the brevity of the mill, and
claimed that McGoyern held him with one
hand and punched him with the other
This was an erroneous impression, be-
cause any holding that was done during
the round was by Palmer, as McGoVern s
arms were never at rest for moment
There was not a mark on any part OF
McGovern's body. When asked what he
thought of the bout he said:

Palmer led off with his left for the
head, but fell short and Terry landed
his left lightly on the head. Palmer,
seemingly confident Of success, forced
matters again, leading his left again

quickly and Palmer fell to his knees.
When he arose they got to work at

Timekeeper Pollock accidentally rang
the gong at a moment when McGovern
was evidentally getting the better of his
opponent. The principals broke quickly
and went to their corners, while their
seconds, as well as the referee, looked
at the timekeeper in amaZement. The
referee, seeing that a mistake had been
made, through pure accident, called the
boys together again, and they resumed
hostilities after a lapse of about twelve
seconds. They got to close quarters i'm.

heavy half-arm work. Then he sent left
