CITY COUNCIL.
Official Proceedings of Session Held
March 80, 1903.

City Hall, Shreveport, La, March go
I0o3.-Council met in regular ADJOURNED
session, with Mayor Querbes presiding
and the following councilmen present :
| Allen, Busbey, Conger, Currle, Dickson,
Foster, Jenkins, LoWenthal, Qulgles,
Rand, Snyder, Thoman, Tusten, Wise.
Committee to whom was referred the
question of ownership of Murphy street
from Texas avenue to overhead bridge
over Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific
tracks reported as follows:
Shreveport, La, March 80, IGo3.-To
the City Council We have examined
the records carefully and up to the pres
ent time find nothing which disputes the
claim made by the Bernsteins of the
ownership of a certain portion of Muir
ply street.
Possibly in the careful searching of
the records, which must be part of the
making of the official map authorized
By you last Monday night, something
may be found which will prove the city 5
ownership of the property in question.
We do not, however, think it would
be equitable and just that the taxpayers
at large should be made to pay for the
paving of this street through the disput-
ed territory in order to secure dedica~
ton from Bernstein / Brothers. Espe-
cially when the other property holders
are anxious to dedicate and pay their
pro rata also. Very respectfully

Tobacco Notes.

We are informed that M. R. Coop.
er, Secretary of State, has issued a
commission to the stockholders of
''T,e Planters Warehouse, of Lees
Vile" and plans, etc., are now being
arranged for the erection of the same.
The warehouse will be completed
in ample time for the next season
and all tobacco planted in the section
will have market here and no one
will be forced to ship their tobacco
to other markets ss heretofore. The
erection of this tobacco warehouse
has caused large number of our
leading farmers to plant less cotton
and more tobacco and it is estimated
that nearly 800 acres will be cult
waited in tobacco in this section this
year against about thirty last year.
The tobacco plant bed should be
| made at once and the seed sowed.
All parties contemplating planting
tobacco and have no seed can be
supplied without cost, if they will
apply to either Tyre Esheredge or F
S Langley of this place. These two
gentlemen will be glad to give al
information desired for planting the
seed and the growing Of the same.

California County Alive to the Value
of Beautiful Roads.
At the recent meeting of the San
joaquin Valley Com 4mercial association
in Merced the committee on resolutions
reported in favor Of adopting the fol-
lowing:
Whereas, Nothing adds more beauty to
a farming country than appropriate shade
trees along its highways, and. Whereas
there is a notable absence Of such trees
along the roadways Of the San Joaquin
valley; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That each organization IN tne
San Joaquin valley be urged to set aside
day to be known rs Arber day, making
the same a holiday. and to invite the
popula ton Of each respective community
to turn out en- masse on that day for the
purpose of planting shade trees along the
roads in it's respective neighDorhooo.
WAYS and means for the purchase OF ap-
propriate trees and for the defraElns OF
Incidental expenses should be raised py
popular subscription or otherwise, as
seems most judicious.
The different organizations in the
valley, says the San Francisco Chron-
icle. were urged to bend every effort
toward efrecting Il betterment OF the
public roads.

We met the good people Of that Vi
cinity and pleasantly conversed with
them concerning matters of local in
terest.
We pressed on to the next appoint
ment at Samaria, and we're hospita-
bly, entertained by our friend, VIM
Westmoreland, during the night and
until the hour OF our departure.
Westmoreland & Son carry a nice line
of general merchandise. Their sales
for last year amounted to over ten
thousand dollars.
After dinner We made the next
stopping place at our old and firm
friends, Captain John G. Able. he
indeed has beautiful home and is
pleasantly situated. He has we'll
cultivated and very productive farm
and good mill. He is gentleman
of the old school when sociability
and brotherly love we're the predomi-
mating characteristics of the times
He was at one time member of the
Board of County Commissioners and
displayed sound judgment in the
management of his public duties.
We left Mr.. Able's about 4 o'clock
and pulled reips for home and reach
ed here about Z o'clock.
Business needed our immediate
attention, together with the inclem-
ent weather, prevented US from ac-
companying the Auditor to Red
Bank Saturday and be made the trip
alone.
The farmers in the territory travel
ed during the week are preparing for
pitching the next crop. Some were
cleaning ground while others were
engaged in plowing. The grain
crops were in fine condition and
the whole outlook indicated a pros
porous time ahead for tbe farmer.

that Senator John L. McLsurin has

will probably take up his residence
in another part of the State. There
has been 80 many incorrect surmises

Sunday morning last the road to
Providence church was filed with an
unusual number Of people vending
their way to church.
We ascertained that there was to
be a marriage ceremony performed.
Az we entered the church We found
that the building had been tastefully
decorated With gsrlands of evergreene,
festooned over the sisles directly in
front of the chancel, with lovely ferns
On the pulpit and around the altar.
Mrs. Beltou Roof presided at the
organ and to her deft touch beauti
full wedding march responded. As
the minister, Rev. Geo. S. Bearden,
stood in position, the bridal party
approached in.
Two couples on each side and one
separating so as to let the bride
and groom stand between them.
They entered in the following
order: Miss Mamie Caughman with
Mr.. Albert Harmar; Miss Annette
Roberts with Mr.. Ollie Smith; Miss
Early Kleckly with Mr.. Frank Caugh-
man: Miss Emma Ballentine with
Mr.. Harry Roberts; Miss Cora
Smith, Maid of Honor and Mr.. Willie
Roberts, Best Man. Then, the love-
ly bride and handsome groom, Miss
Carrie R ,berts and Mr.. W. Aughtry
Smith
After the impressive ceremony the
party took seats reserved for them
for preaching. It was touching
scene to see the entire bridal party
surround the altar to take the Lord 8
supper.
It was the largest congregation
that had assembled at this church
for long time. An elegant dinner
wse served at the home of Mr. Henry
Roberts. We wish the couple q
long and happy life. 8.

little OF nothing except to give tempo
rary relief.
Catarrh is frequently located in inter
nal organs which cannot be reached by
any sort of local treatment. AL this
is known by every physician.
To devise some systemic internal rem
edy which would reach catarrh at its
source, to eradicate it permanently
from the system-this has been the DC
sire of the medical profession for long
time. Forty years ago DR.. Hartman
confronted this problem. He believed
then that he had solved it. He still be-
Eeyes he has solved it. He cures thou
sands of people annually. During all
these years Peruna has been the remedy
upon which he has relied.

T,HERE are two things that the whole
4 medical profession agree about con-
cerning catarrh. The first is that ca
tarrh is the most tprevalenta and omnipres-
ent disease to which the people in the
United States are subject. All classes
of people have it. Those who stay in
doors much and those who go outdoors
much. Working classes have it and
sedentary classes have it.
The doctor finds catarrh to be his con-
slant and ever-present foe. 1t compli-
Gates nearly every disease he is called
upon to treat.
The second thing about catarrh on
which all doctors agree, is that it is diff
ficult to cure it. Local remedies may
give relief but they fail to cure per-
manently. Sprays or snuffs amount to
