Editor Haltomof the Nacogdoches
(Texas) Sentinel feels it is his duty
to warn his readers against one of
his own advertisers, and does il
thoroughly, as he does everything.
It might be pointer to Louisiana
farmers. He says:
"The English-American Cotton
Co, with j. E. Brophey, Southern
manager, that has sent out so much
advertising matter concerning
Kings Improved early cotton seed
from Houston, has turned ont to be
a fake Of the first water. Farmers
are warned not to send them
money. There is no such concern
and the fellow who started he
scheme has buncoed the people out
of great deal Of money before be-
fore being exposed Nearly every
paper in the cotton belt has been
taken in and the Houston Post was
worked like a fish. The fraud was
exposed through suspicion aroused
by the post office at Houston. The
papers that greedily accepted the
advertisements sent out by the
bogus million dollars organization
are now eager to expose the fraud.
The Sentinel was duped with
hundreds of others and is caught
FOR twenty-five or thirty dollars
worth Of advertising space. And
to make matters worse the ad is al
ready printed on the first run OF
The Weekly Sentinel for this week.
Read the ad, but keep your money
it home.u

This dispatch from a Post CORE.
spondent contains moral which
should appeal to every farmer in
the State:
Bryan, Texas, February 20.-As
an example of how diversification
pays in Brazos county, the Post
correspondent will give the expe-
rience of one farmer, Mr.. T. A..
Hensarling, who is a hill farmer
living few miles from town.
Since October II he has sold 500
pounds Of butter at 25 cents a
pound, amounting to 1925. He
has also sold hogs amounting to
1927, total 1852. Besides this he
had plenty of milk and butter for
a large family and put up enough
meat to run his farm, which means
two or three tenant families, be-
sides his own. He also raised on
his farm an abundance of corn for
another year and a good cotton
crop. His last sale of hogs was
three 6 months old pigs, weighing
200 pounds each, and four 9 months
old pigs weighing 315 pounds each.
These hogs were raised on three
acres of COOLERS, and Mr.. Hensar.
ling is so we'll pleased with the ex-
pertinent that he will increase his
crops Of both hogs and COOLERS.
1t is a pity there are not more
advocates Of the Investigation
dea like Mr.. Hensarling. The

SIX OLD HULKS ATTACKED BY
RUSSIANS.

Paris, Feb. Exhibitions
details of the japanese attempt t.
close the entrance Of the harbor o
| Port Arthur have been received
from most authoritive quarters
These say the japanese sent five
or six old transport hunks, con
voyed by torpedo boats, to Port
Arthur with the evident purpose OF
sinking the hnlks at the entrance OF
the harbor.
The battleship Retvizan dis
covered their approach and her fire
on them was strongly seconded by
that of the shore batteries north of
Port Arthur. The reports add
that two japanese ships were
wrecked and lie in Tiger bay; that
along the shores another Japanese
ship was burned and that fourth
lies wrecked on the shores outside
of Tiger Bay.
1t is believed that these wrecks
are not warships, but hulks de-
signed to be sunk at the entrance
Of the harbof. The wrecks are
said TO be all considerable distances
from the harbor entrance, which
remains open.
This report gives no information
concerning the japanese fleet which
is said to have supported the opera
tions against Port Arthur.

THE ENTERPRISE
THE CANAL.
saeeUesesessoaszsssxssss
OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF IBERIA PARISH
AND TOWN OF NEW IBERIA

The election which was held on
the 23d inst. for the levying of a
3-mill tax for twenty-five years for
constructing a canal to the gulf
was successful to the extent wished
for by the most ardent supporters
of the scheme. A property ajor-
ity of $40,66l, aud numerical
majority of 145, showed that the
measure had ample friends and
hackers, and the battle for public
improvement is won. We presume
the Commissioners will at once pro-
coed to make effective the power
intrusted to them, and that they
will at once begin the prelimi-
naries that will. enable them to
"scratch dirt at the earliest pos
sible moment.
We trust each commissioner will
feel the weight of the great work
intrusted to them and that they
will to the best of their ability
expend the entire amount for the
purpose for which it was voted,
viz: A Drainage and Navigable
Canal, that shall give us an outlet
to the gulf for small craft. We
trust the Commissioners will keep
this idea prominently before them,
that the voters want the navigable
possibilities of the canal assured,
and to that end use every available
dollar that can be gotten out of the
tax. The more perfect the naviga-
ton. the more perfect will be the
drainage.
We want no ditch, but a canal
that will serve for drainage and
purposes, and we feel
that the Board of Com
will do their utmost to
accomplish this most desirable re-
suit. We congratulate the COM
on the result and regard
The 23d of February as a red letter
lay in the history of New Iberia.
Owing to the present Board of
commissioners being composed of
he City Council, whose time is
being very much occupied by pri-
rate as well as public affairs, we
hink it would be advisable for
hem toappoint an Auxiliary Com
nittee of seven practical business
men, to assist in this great work,
hat it may not retrogress, but be
,ept in constant progress.

AN OUTRAGE.

Much notoriety has been given
by the city press recently to a New
Iberia young lady, Mrs. Forest
Levy, nee Kreider. The crime Of
which she was the victim, shocked
the whole community and that it is
yet UNPUBLISHED and the criminals
at large is much the fault Of the
New Orleans authorities who have
allowed the whole matter to slip
through their fingers aid Justice
cheated Of its rights. Whatever re-
prehensible acts Miss Kreider may
have been guilty Of. or whatever
dame rumor may have had to say
regarding Miss Kreiders actions,
nothing can in the slightest degree,
condOne or mitigate the horrible
outrage to which she was subjected
in q portion Of the city Of New
Orleans supposed to have special
police protection.
That the subterfuge Of marriage
is but q shield to protect guilt and
defeat the ends of Justice is per-
fectly plain to every person of or
binary perception. We trust for
the good name of the State that the
perpetrators Of thisre- rotting crime
may be brought to condign punish
ment.
This unfortunate affair is the
outcome Of lax parental authority,
. leniency and undergraduates
that is very reprehensible Young
ladies' should not be allowed to visit |

Nutting.

The old device of jarring by Il heavy stone the tree bole-espe- cially the slim secondary trees of the deeper woods-may be trite, but not it's refinement of taking some what smaller stone and by series of quick taps on the trunk "snapping" the upper branches. Less known and more effective is another plan: It's clements are good arm, ball of strong cord, and, attached, half-pound stone, more or less, according to the weight of the string. The theory involves the casting of a weight over bough of the nut tree and shaking it briskly when looped by the cord; the practice is that many youngster who deems him. self a cracker thrower on the ball field will find some lessons to be learned in the precision of ''loop- ing" chestnut branch and in the retarding power of an ascending cord tied to projectile. Again with usage comes the art of so re- leasing the cord from an upper bough as to loop the bough below and, with acquired dexterity, strip half a dozen branches after a single cast.-Outing.

Col. Leslie Dad.

Col. T. H. Leslie, builder of the railroad from Stuttgart to Dewitt, passed away Christmas day at Hot Springs. Although one of the wealth. fest men in the state only a few years ago, at the time of his death he was possessed of small means, and was living in comparative obscurity. The railroad he built did not prove a paying investment for him, and shortly after its completion fire de- stroyed several of his business houses, which were uninsured. Fol lowing these misfortunes he became involved in a difficulty and killed his opponent, but was acquitted af- ter costly trial.

Shooting at Saginaw.

A shooting scrape occurred at Sag lnaw Christmas eve, in which Chas. Gosney was shot through the left shoulder by J. c. Brazwell, an en- pioye of the Saginaw Lumber Com pany. It seems that the woods crew over which Brazwell is foreman. went to the commissary, and, dur iNg their stay, they, or some of 4lAem, got under the influence of whisky and began to drive the negro employees of the mill away from the store. Gosney, who lives near by, blackened his face and came down to the store and desired to know who It was that wanted to run the negroes out of town. He was remonstrated with by Brazwell for trying to ex- cite trouble. Gosney then assaulted Brazwell. After following Brazwell around for some minutes, Gosney again attempted to assault him, whereupon Brazwell shot him while, 1t is claimed, he was endeavoring to gut him with his knife.

Sold to a Baroness.

A Hot Springs real estate dealer recently sold the famous Potash Sulphur Springs to Baroness M. De Palindt, of London, for a consider ation of $65,oOo. The new owners contemplate making very extensive improvements in the property. The baroness will probably spend $2o, 900 or $3o,000, it is thought, when she is finally settled in her new American home in erecting new hotel, beautifying the grounds, and perhaps may finance a long-project- ed electric car line to this famous resort, which it is thought, would be fine investment.

When the prisoners were locked in the "bull pen" at night Johnson was by some means over looked. When the night jailer went into the large room in which the "bull pen" is situated to make an inspection Johnson slipped out un- seen and was not missed until the jailer counted the inmates of the pen.
