OUR JUNIORS.

Our Junior base ball club is
proving TO be formidable team
and we believe we can safely say
thew are the champion Juniors OF
Southwestern Louisiana, haying
defeated the clubs of New Iberia,
Loreauville, Abbeville and Opel
ousas, which are all good clubs.
Last Sunday our Juniors went
to OpeIousas to meet the Juniors
of that town, and they report that
the Juniors of Opelousas gave
them the hardest struggle of their
experience, the st. Martins Ju-
niors making three rounds and the
Opelousas Juniors making one
round, in nine innings.
This close game shows that both
clubs made noble fight and play
ed a game that would do honor to
professionals.
When our boys returned from
Opelousas Monday evening they
were taken to the Tertrou Hotel
where they were served lunch, re-
freshments ETC., by Mrs. Tertrou
who is a good friend of the boys
and they received the congratula
tions of our people who are always
willing to back the boys agains

Our Greatest Need.
OUR SCHOOLS CANNOT PROSPER
WITHOUT TRAIND TEACHERS.

Obviously from the facts shown
in the figures l have cited, the
pressing need of the South is for
public education, and the form of
public education for which the
need is most pressing is that OF
the common school in the country
districts. 1t is not worth while to
dwell much OH this proposition.
The great body of intelligent men
at all interested in the subject in
the South are profoundly impress
ed with it. Figures might be 81
ven 10 detail to chow specific in
stances of need, but they are not
required. The mass of ignorance
actually existing in different de-
grees in different states is unde-
deniable, and is undenied. But in
dealing with it two facts must be
taken into account. One is the
extreme difficulty in founding
country schools in sections that
are poor and ignorant, and the
other is the striking and general
want of trained teachers. With
both of these facts the southern
educational movement it trying to
deal. A very earnest effort is ma.
king to secure local taxation fol-
schools. The system is little
known or understood in the South
and the first aim of the Southern
men of the Education Board is to
inform and arouse the public OPT.
MON of the country districts il
this direction. The second fact
the lack of teachers lis even more
Immediately important. If there
were available at this moment IF
ty millions of dollars for the EN-
ploymeut of teachers in the ruraI
schools in the South it could no
effectively be expended. The frs
thing to be done, therefore, accor.
ding to the testimony of all th,
Southern educators, is the teach
ing of Southern teachers. Thil
caunot be rapidly or easily done
1t is a matter of time and of stea
dy, intelligent, systematic work
and such work is being planned
and put into operation. 1t has the
growing sympathy and active CO
operation Of meu of influence il
public and business and profes
sional life in the South. 1t has
what is still more valuable, tn,
earnest support of q very larg
number of intelligent women il
the South. = Edward Gary in Nev
York Times.

WOULD POSTPONE EXPOSITION.


Washington, Jan. 1.-THE Louisiana
Purchase Exposition. which was to
have been held At st. Louis in 1903,
will not take place until 19ol. This
fact was practically conceded by eX-
Governor Francis, president of the eN-
position company. and AdOlph Busch,
the financial agent of the company, at
the White House to-day. Since hrriv-
ing her and comforting with the foreign
representatives. Governor Francis and
Mr.. Busch have come 10 the conclusion
that unless the exposition is postponed
for Il year the exposition will not be
able to secure the elaborate foreign eN-
hibits which are desired. I'm l9O3 we
can make the exposition as great rs
any ever given" said Governor Fran
els, but If we postpone it a year 1t will
surpass anything in the exposition line
ever attempted
The exposition managers explain
that a great Japanese fair is to be given
under govcrnemnt auspices in 1903,
and If the exposition is postponed un-
til 1901 everything of interest exhibited
there can he brought to st. Louis the
following year. 1t is the desire of the
exposition management that the for
elgn exhibits especially shall be very
complete.
I'VE ear I've ready in 1908, but it is
questionable whether we can secure
what we want from abroad by that
time said Governor Francis.
