Europe, Copenhagen is probably the
best telcphDncd city, with 13,311 telc-

equal TO fOrtg-nin2 per thousand. In
Copenhagen, too, the best conditions
for the public exist, although the rates
are relatively as high IS those in Amer

would have been the death of my

fingers and carried them to my room.
When | thought the servants must be
asleep, | crept down stairs and got to
work with a brush. At every sound
would nearly jump out of my own
boots and drop his. | fancied every
moment that the girls would see my
candle and give the alarm of burglars
or that my friend would be taken ill
and get up and find me brushing his
shoes. Oh. had pretty time of it!

Rev. VIM. Thorburn. of Car

week preached very acceptably
to the congregation of the Pres
byterian church. demonstrating
his ability as expOunder of God $
word and above all evidencing
his deep conceptions of gospel
truths. Last Sunday morning
the sermon in connection with
the com muniOn service, elected
from a large and intelligent
audience highest praise and
commendatiOn. While grounded
upon theological doctrine the
discourse was delivered in so
simple and earnest language
and abOunded in so many fOrci
BILE and apt illustrations that con-
victiOn was carried to every
heart. Rev. ThOrburn breaches
again tomorrow, Sunday, and
the congregation will then likely
extend him a call for the work
here. All indications point to
acceptance and our Presbyterian
friends look forward joyfully to
the time when they shall have
regular miniStratiOn.

AN ELECTRIC RAILWAY
TO Connect La1;a yette with
BrcauX Bridge, st. Martin.
vile, New Iberia, YOunsS.
and AbSeVIlle

Mr.. John McIlhenny, of
Avery's Island, was in La fayette
Wednesday and Thursday, in
the interest of movement to
build an electric railway through
this section. Mr.. Mcuhenny's
plan is to run a line from New
Iberia to ST. Martinville, CON
tinuing along the Teche as far as
Breaux Bridge and from the
latter town to Lafayette, and
then back to New Iberia by way
of Youngsville and Abbeville
Mr.. McIlhenny will appear
before the Council Monday for
the purpose Of securing right
of way through certain streets
in this town. He will ask to be
allowed to run the road along
Lincoln avenue, Pierce and JEFF
ferSOn streets to the corner of
Lamar avenue: from this point
to Industrial avenue. passing in
front of the Institute, and run
ming to the intersection of La
fayette street which will give Il
direct route to the Cotton Oil
Mill and Compress. After going
over a short strip of land out
side the town limits the road
will reach Mudd avenue, passing
through Sterling avenue, SimcOe
\ ~,
starting point in Lincoln avenue
is reached. As may be seen
from the route indicated the in
tentiOn is to belt the town as
much as possible.
Mr.. McIlhenny has already
obtained the right of way from
the Councils of New Iberia and
ST. Martinville and it is not
troubl in securing favorable
action from the municipal au-
thOritieS Of the other towns
through which the projected
road will pass.
In order to facilitate the con
StructiOn of roads of this char
acter, the last Legislature passed
law empowering Police Juries
to grant rights of way through
| the public roads. This law, in
the passage of which Mr.. Nc
Ilhenny was instrumental as
representative from Iberia par
| ish. safeguards the rights of
abu tting owners and protects
the interests which the public
have in the granting of fran
chiSeS. When this law will have
been promulgated, Mr.. Nell
benny will apply to the various
Police JurieS for the right of
way through the country dis
I trictS.
This is an enterprise of great
Importance to this section, and
it is to be hoped that there will
be no impediment in it's way.
Not only are the people of the
town to be largely benefited by
the construction of this electric
railway, but the country people
are also vastly interested in its
success.
