Rice Mill at Gueydan.

BY recent dispatches to the New
Orleans papers we learn that A. Kap-
Ian of Crowley has decided to put up
rice mill at Gueydan. Mr.. Kaplanis
a heavy owner of rice land and also
owns stock in the Lichtenstein, Hech-
niger and Vernilion canals, the pum-
ping plant and system of which is re-
garded as the finest irrigating plant
IN the United States, and he has done
much to develop the country about
Gaeydan. The new mill will be the
equal of any in this part of the State
and will be fitted with the most
modern machinery. There are about
5000 acres about Gueydan under
irrigation this year, and there will be
plenty of work to keep the new mill
busy. Work will begin at once, as
the contract has been let to Eckhardt
& johnson of Crowley. The new
mill at Estherwood is also being push
ed 9apidly, and there is also pros
pect of "a mill for Eunice.

Prof. E. b. Garriotte of the wealth
er bureau, in discussing the recent
cyclone disasters, says that if the
people would open the doors and
windows of their houses when they
see funnel-shaped cloud approach
ing it would save their homes from
being carried into the next county or
destroyed by the fury Of the winds.
The velocity of the wind causes a
vacuum in the atmosphere. When
the cloud reaches the house with all
the doors and windows shut the four
walls must give way to the vacuum
or the house is lifted from the founda-
ton and carried with the wind. He
cites cyclone near Chicago where a
large barn was completely wrecked,
while corn crib, which was a few
feet away, escaped without damage.

ploye of the Lancaster mills, who
speaks Italian, is going before the Sc
lectmen, or to a member of the board
as the agent of four Italian laborers
who claim that they have been dis
charged because they did not deal
with the commissary in the camp of
Moulton & O'Mahoney. Mr.. Decesere
says that the men rebelIed at paying
eight cents a pound for sugar, and de-
clded to trade in the regular grocery
stores in Clinton. When the represen-
tative of The Spy conversed with De-
cesere he was accompanied by four
laborers, who exhibited their numbers,
as follows: No. $780, No. 205, No. IT'S
and No. 62.
1t will seem strange to the ordinary
citizen to call men by number instead
or by name, but in the case of these
men the number is everything and the
name is nothing. 1t is by the number
that they appear upon the books of
the contractor and upon the books of
the water board, If things happen that
the water board must pay them. They
are known to their foremen and to the
shanty bosses by number If one of
them chances to be found dead, he will
be identified by his number, not by his
name. Among themselves they may
go by their names, but nowhere else
None of the numbered gentlemen
could talk English. But, as Decesere
expresses their story, they have been
employed in stripping the soil from the
section of the dixie included in Moulton

along comfortably until they decided

sary attached to the camp. Monday
they were Informed by one of the fore
men that their services would be no

citation. 1t is pretty certain that n
thorough investigation will be made Of
the stories of No. $780, No. 205, No. IT'S
and No. 62. The people of Clinton are
heartily tired of a system that makes
the laborers little better than chattel
slaves. They are going to break it, If
they can.
