We believe 1t would be a wise move
on the part of the Town Council at its
next meeting to repeal the present COW
ordinance and adopt one allowing the
COWS to roam the streets at night.
They would certainly keep the grass
crop cut down, thereby saving the
town the expense of cutting the grass.
besides 1t would be boon to many Of
our poor citizens who have COWS.

goods which will saan begin to arrive
and everybody is patiently awaiting
a change in the weather when it is ex-
pected there will be enough business
to keep everybody at work. Many of
our people who were fortunate enough
to have the price have left for St.
Louis and other points. Many have
remained home for yariOu, reasons.
Nevertheless the business outlook for
st. Mary was never brighter. The
cane crop, which is growing nicely.
bids fair to be one OF the large
grown here in many years. This
means long grinding and much
money in circulation The corn. cot

yield. Verify, We have no cause to
complain.

summer and winter. There is no stock
company, the roles being filed by the
clerks and worlmen Each play costs
ordinarily S6450, but the admission IS
free The company chooses the plays,
and those found to be most preferred
are by two Russian authors, while
Moliere comes third. In addition to the
theauicais readings are given in the
same building every Sunday evening
from 6 to s o'clock from works ap-
proved by the minister Of public in
struetion.
Musical evenings are also furnished
by an orchestra and a chorus compos-
