LAST SUNDAYS RACES.

Once more. Oak Avenue. Park
was the, scene, Of animation on las,
Sunday. : Great loverszof the Turi
were present. The weather unset
tied in the morning became fairer
by noon and every thing went a.
long smoothly. 1t was day well
spent. The track was put in first
class order by the new owners
Messrs. Roy and Martin, and what
was commendabie, the races start
ed at the hour announced on the
posters. This is certainly an ino-
vation and we congratulate the
owners. f. Though the time was
shortened between each race there
is still improvement to be made,
reducing it. Various details were
lacking to start the horses as two
races were uselesly ran, but all of
this can be remedled. Rome was
not built in one day and the own
ers were pushed in their work but
at the next races it is to be hoped
that nothing will be lacking. A
judges stand would be quite accep-
table. The public stand is SO built
that each spectator can see the ra-
ces in their least details and we
don't know why the public chose
to Stand when the race begins and
by 50 doing obstruct the view of
their neighbors. We would like
to see this abuse corrected and
those who would not comply with
the request to be seated might be
asked to come down.
Z Very often wouldiWe like to see
good races as last Sundays were
and we entreat the whole popula-
-ion'to help.the new owners who on
heir part will not spare neither
money nor work to give Lafayette
good and clean amusement.

Now in regard to the first charge
that | drew money for one F. Willis.
This charge is incorrect as ,he +.
Willis WHO testified before the grand
jury has never been hired by me to
work for the parish. Consequently he
could net have said that l gave him
money, but if the gra.d jury had
called Fernest Gabriel, also known
under. the name of F. Willis, they
would not have been misled in the way
they were. Here below is found F.
GabriePs sworn affidairt, also state
ment of Duplex aud Roy and the
report of the drainsge':committee.
Now in regard to the other charge
that ! drew money for one j. Menard,
[ would say chat the j. Menard rho
was made to testify against me. never
was hired by me for any work on the
public roads. 1t was Julien Menard
who was hired by me and for VIII I'M
drew money and paid: :over to him
as is shown by his sworn affidavit and

,alled to testify, but the two others

BAYOU yEEN!LrcN.

An appropriation of $25oo was
allotted for the cleaning up .,
Bayou Vermilion. Appropriations
OF this kind have been granted be-
tore but the contractors for reasons
best known to themselves have
always worked up towards Alb
bevllle and neglected the portion
near Lafayette.
AT the instigation of Mr.. T. M.
Biossat, the B. M. A., of Lafayette
have written to Congressman
Broussard, asking him that the
money be spent upon the portion
OF the bayou SO as to facilitate the
Coming of boats to Lafayette. Con-
gressman Broussard answered that
he would look into the matter and
requested the B. M. A. to send a
representative who with him would
visit Major Quinn, in New Orleans,
who has charge of the rivers inn
provements.~ 3
Consequently. the .B, NJ A.,
met last Monday night at Falk's
Opera House and after discussing
!. the best methods to follow in the
premises, Mr.. Chas. o. Mouton,
president OF the association was
elected as representative to see
Major Quinn and explain to him
!, the wishes of the citizens of La
fayette, the association bearing all

OF the proceeding appropriation,
this total is small Ito do the work
thornughly.. but # the citizens Of
Lafayette who 'until now have not
asked for anything would become
interested in ~the opening up of
this bayou and asked the amount
necessary, there is no doubt that
Congressman Broussard would do
his utmost to obtain. it.. ~
II the bayou was navigable to
