Ball Game SUNDAY.

The ball game Sunday was all
right. There was a fair crowd
to see it but it deserved larger
turn out. AT half past three
Lafayette lined up against Jean
erette for a nine inning game
and from then until the last
out the game held the atten-
ton of the spectators. Lafayette
made some fine plays-so did
Jeanerette-and better still
weren't fumbling with errors
to any wOrrisome extent, for
they rounded out the game with
only one charged up to them.
Jeanerette started out lively by
shutting Lafayette out tight the
first three innings, and pleas
antly walking off with three
runs. They could smile, then:
but when the Lafayette boys
settled down to business in the
fourth inning, the smile began to
fade, and when the nine innings
closed with 10 to 3 in favor of
Lafayette, they were too busy
guessing how it happened to
sport a smile or even ghost of
one.
1t happened that way because
Sunday was an "on" day for
Lafayette and every man on the
team was handling the ball just
right. Liable pitched at the
right pitch, Suarez caught 'em
off the bat like professional,
McNaspy at short did the stop
act with the proper swing and
all the rest 'kept along in the
procession" That's how it
happened.

The ward bosses are con-
spicuous in Baton Rouge by
their absence and this is Signi-
ticant. 1t means that a man and
leader is at the helm and that he
is not going to be "steered' or
badgered and pestered by them.
Louisiana has made great
stride along the lines of better
government. The bosses and
their friends may get some Jobs
but they are not going to run
things. Monroe Star.

floor and marched down the wide
staircase into the large dining
room of the bOtel to the music of
the Alexandria String Band.
The grand march was led by Mr..

sight as the fifty or more couples
wOve in and out in the beautiful
figures of the march.
The room was prettily decor
ated with flags and over in the
bay window upon a stage draped
with the national cOlOrs sat the
band. AS the march passed the
stage ball programs were handed
each lady and gentleman. Dane
ing began Immediately after the
close of the march and continued
until about 3 a. m. with an inter

were served on the rear galleries.
