Rob Crowd and Murder Bow,

Two masked men entered the boarding
house of Joseph Hall at Sioux River,
bound and robberd the proprietor and
boarders and shot Willie Ernest, aged II
years, killing him. The robbers escaped.
The thieves are believed to be residents
of the neighborhood, as they seemed to
be familiar with the men and the place.

The Lafayette Experience

Last month Lafayette eXper
fenced pretty large fire, burning
several buildings. The town has
pretty fair system OF water
works. but on this particular oc-
casion il seems to have all but
failed them. Theirs is the usual
style employing "A stand pipe.
Last week, says the Lafayette
Advertiser, ga committee of fire
men made a test of the water
works in order to determine the
cause of the lack of pressure dur
ing the big fire Saturday night.
With 100 feet of water in the
stand pipe the pressure from 1t
alone was 56 1 2 ponds to the
square inch. After using two
feet, pressure fell to 81 2. With
the main closed and pressure
given direct from the pump, only
- lbs pressure could be given.
With all the mains closed, the
pump gave a pressure of 80
pounds
1t is evident from the eXamina-
ton that the employees at the
water works were not in fault, but
that the difficulty lies somewhere
in the plant Just what the diff
ficulty is, has not been positively
determined. A number of causes
have a hearing. but without doubt
one of the chief causes is that the
pump Is too small for the work re
quired on it. When first put III
it was sufficient but since the
great intention of the mains and
heavy demands on the water sup
ply 6 in pump is inadequate.
Whatever other comes It may be
certain the town will have to
purchase a much larger pump and
the sooner it is done the better
The condition of hose is very bad
an entirely new supply being
needed"
Whatever mistake may have
been made by the promoters OF
the New Iberia waterwOrks plan
it is certain thus far that no fault
can be found with the direct
pressure system, and that IL
times Of need it has been relied
up on as being ready for service
day or night.

The Trolley Railroad

The benefits to come from line
of railroad, as contemplated by
Gen'l F. F. MyIes is perhaps,
not fully appreciated by all our
peope. When we consider what
the efforts of the large cities OF

to obtain rapid transit we can a
little appreciate what such To-
cOmOtion is worth to "A people.
The larger the city and The dens

such centers the rapid movement
of cars is menace to human

what we most want and need is

This Town is growing.

The town has been unusually
uuiet and some of our people have
been disposed to pronounce bust
ness as "dul'." There have heen
MANY reasons for this condition.
First. the all but unprecedented
rainy weather of the first three
mont1s of the year, stagnatlng
almost every branch of industry
especially planting operations in
The country districts Next, the
drought of the month Of April and
the cold of May.
Notwithstanding the adverse
conditions of the seasons-rathel
discouraging to all branches OF
trade-building operations are
going on TO degree that would
indicate a very prosperous year
The bright shingles on new roofs
may be seen in all parts of the
town and many new foundations
are being laid for creditable build
ings.

on Hopkins street is nearing com
pletion and promises to be one OF
