MFR. C. Brand is having nea
store building erected on the wes
side of Market street, almost op
posite the residence of Lauren
Dupre, Esq, the dimensions
OF which are 24x45 feet.
Attention is directed to the
advertisement of Mount Pleasant
Brick Yard in this issue, by the
the perusal OF which it will be
perceived that in addition to brick
specialties, they have now on hand
and for. sale, select lot OF
red cypress in varying lengths.
The work on the brick curb
ing of the sidewalks preparatory
to levelfng them off and cement
ing is progressing nicely, this part
OF the work having been completed
through Main and Landry streets.
The next street to be curbed will,
we learn, be Bellevue street, east
ward.
LIN the proper column will be
found the announcement OF Mr..
Arthnr T. Collins for ward con-
stable of this, the first ward. Ar
thur is good citizen and a
staunch Democrat, and the many
friends who are fiocking round his
standard attest his deserved popu-
larity.
Judge Arthur Simon is an
nounced in this weeks issue as
a candidate for reelection to the
office of Observation-Disclosures Of

pacity for several terms, and is
recognized as an officer of unusual
ability and sound Judgment.
-Dr. w. R. Boudreau announces
himself for the Office OF Coroner Of
the Parish OF st. Landry, subject
to the action OF the Democratic
party. DIR. Boudreau is a rising
young physician, well liked by all
who know him; of strong charac-
ter and amiable disposition. He
would make good coroner.
Our old friend, Adelma Guidry,
announces himself as candidate
for the office of Police Juror of the
Second Ward OF the Parish of st.
Landry. AdeIma is one OF the old
warhorses of that country who
made a good police juror when in
office four years ago and will
doubtless run like q scared rabbit
this time.

Last Sunday q number of our
progressive young boys organized
base ball nine composed exclu-
siveiy of members Of the order
known as the "Coming Men OF
America from which they take
their name, and on the same day
won their first game against the
picked boys OF the town in a score
of s to 4.
The work OF putting in the
and watering troughs on
Court Square and at stated inter-
walls around it is being pushed to
completion, and If it is properly
done, the money laid out will be
well spent, considering the fact
that our new sidewalks are begin
ning to loom up so conspicuously,
and these beauties and utilities
combined will thus be all the more
appreciated.
-Although the announcement
OF Sidney l.. Hebrard appears on
iy now i'm the columns of the Ciar-

ing an active campaign-so active
that he Is now considered one of
the strong men in the race for that
important Office. Sidney is home
boy-sborn and bredn right here
and has strong following who
will stay with him to the last
ditch.
