They Are The Champions.

The st. Martinville Juniors
passed through here Sunday NOR
ming, en- route to Abbeville but
they failed to play at that place on
account of differences which could
not be settled amicably.
The St. Martinville boys are
chronic kickers and would take

New Iberia Iberian.
Our Juniors will not only kick,
but they will insist upon right and
justice, fair play and courteous
treatment, and when it comes to
base ball playing they stand ready
to whip any Junior club in the
country, not excepting New Iberia,
Abbeville or any other place.
They are the champions and
stand ready to meet any club Of
Juniors from any place in the

Audacious Negro.

Sunday night, at eight o'clock a
negro was seen in the house of
Roland Delacroix, colored, when
the family was taking supper the
negro was thought to be trying to
get into the wardrobe to steal the
money which Delacroix had re-
ceived on Saturday evening, and
when discoved made his escape
by jumping over the fence and
running away before help came.
The man was recognized to be
black man with a heavy mustache,
black hat and black coat.
The officers were soon on the
spot, but no trace of the intruder
could be found.

Stealing The Oil Field.

The people of Breaux Bridge are
making a vigorous kick because
the people of Lafayette want to
stea, the Anse-la-Butte oil field
from them.
There is not the least doubt, 1t
il even a fact that the oil field OF
Anse-la- Butte is in the parish OF
St Martin, and that in direct
line, it is only two miles from
Breaux Bridge and five miles
from Lafayette, but we have
not the least doubt that Lafayette
will succeed in stealing the oil
field for the reasons that the peo-
ple of that town are wide awake
and are developing more grogress'
activity and energy, and they are
making every effort to attract the
attention of the world, while our
friends of Breaux Bridge are TAX
ing a nap, waiting for all the good
things that will flow out OF the OIL
field to come to them. We are
afraid that the people of BreauA
Bridge mapped too long, that Ia
fayette, with its train and hote
facilities and the enterprise dis
played by their people, have ia
ken possession of the oil field, ant
at this late time, Breaux Brldg'
will have a hard task to get l
back il ever it succeeds in that.
Breaux Bridge, you are too slow
and you have lost the old field b.
your own fault.

BASE BALL.

Our people are getting to be low
ers of the national game, and last
Sunday we saw the largest crowd
of people ever seen here at g base
ball game, and among those pre-
sent we're large number OF ladies
who seem to take a great deal OF
interest in the game.
The game of last Sunday was
we'll advertised, and it was to be a
closely contested battle for victory
between our Seniors and our Ju-
niors, both clubs we're we'll backed
and the bets we're pretty lively,
though the Juniors had more
backers.s
The game did not give the spec
tators the excitement and pleasure
they expected, as it was, from the
start. one sided affair, all in IA
vor of the Juniors, and the score
stood Juniors % rounds Seniors
IL rounds.
If the Seniors had a little more
practice they could play a good
game, but they will require lots Of
that before they are in trim to
tackle the Juniors.

The Oil Field.

The oil field of st. Martin parish
is growing in public favor and at
this time attracting the attention
of the outside world.
At this present time there are
five companies boring wells, and
in the course of short time many
more wells will be going down, as
we learned that Mr.. James M.
Lee, Jr., representing the South
ern Pacific Railroad Co., was here
this week, and in company Of MIR.
Robert Martin, visited the several
oil fields of this parish, and has
made contracts with Mr.. Robert
Martin, A. Domengeaux and seve-
raj other persons, to bore for oil,
and We understand that this com.
pany is ready to accept any rea-
sonable proposition to explore this
entire parish, aud with the coli
tracts now held by them, we ex
pect several drilling outfits will b.

so been made with other compa

past few days sold at 81, 81 Is aud
A.25 per barrel, which is consi-
dered good price. Our planters
should be careful in not rushing
all their crop Oh the New Orleans
market at the same time and flood
the market, which will surely
bring the price down. From re-
liable reports, we can safely put
the rice crop down as being short
fully fifty per cent of last years
which means this years crop
should bring good price, and if
our planters are wise, keep their
rice, or ship only in small lots,
they will certainly get better pri-
ces. as buyers and spectators will
understand the real condition oil

half of what it was last season

School Improvement.

President T. j. Liable and Supt.
A. s. Wood of the Parish School
Board are circulating petitions TO
have a special election in the First
ward and in St. Martinville, to
have the people of the entire ward,
including st. Martinville, to vote
a two mill tax for four years, to
enlarge and equip the high school
in this town, in order to make it a
first class high school, with all the
modern equipment that is neces-
sary in a school of this kind.
We believe the people OF both,
the ward and the town will vote
for this tax, as q school as is. con-
tenn plated, is a long-felt necessity
here, and every one of our people
should encourage this move and
give it their earnest support.
The parish should also contrl'
butte towards the improvement
contemplated, as this school will
not be open only to the children
Of the town and first ward, but to
the children of the entire parish
Those who are taking an active
part in this laudable enterprise
are meeting with all the encou
ragement they could desire, ant
have not the least doubt that tn
people will vote for this tax whicI
will be very light on the tax pay
ers, as the limit is short, onl
four years.
We are of opinion that W
should vote the tux aud rush MAJ
tiers in order to have first elias
high school in st. Martinville a
early as possible.
