Fire Bugs
Make Several UnsuCCessful1y
Attempts
Attempts

Fire bugs made several unsuccss
full attemps to destroy valuable
property in our city during the
past week.
This is becoming montonaus to
say the least, and 1t behooves our
police offici ais and citizens to be
quite vigilant, else there is no tel
lngwhen the efforts of the fire bug
or bugs will result in the destruc-
ton of valuable property in our
city.
The rice mill has had several
narrey escapes from the fire fiend
of late and Wednesday night the
Best House on st. Peter street es-
capped destruction only by a narrow
margin. One of the inmates of
the latter place had occasion to
ge, up Wednesday night for a
glass of water and discovered the
flames which had gained no great
Roadway and Immediately extin-
gushed same. No alarm was tur-
ned in.
Our police should exert every ef-
fort within their power to locate
and bring to justice the guilty one
or ones if more than one. With
such fiends at large our entire city
is in grave danger Of destruction.

Recently the Protestant Gene
tary in West End has been very
much improved and beautified.
This through the energetic efforts
of the Protestant Cemetary Asso

right and proper and it Is stated
that nothing will in the future be
left undone to keep it in the very
best of condition at any and all
times.

During his incumbency he won

Marshal Fontelieu was a son of

District Court of Louisiana, and
Earnestine GonsOulin. Both fa-

there. At one time he was assis-

Mr.. Fon,elieu married Miss
lrma Durand of st. Martinvill who
with boy of nine survives him.
The funeral will take place in
New Iberia, where the body will

NNHE season Of catching cold is upon
Y us. The cough and the sneeze and


us. The cough and the sneeze and
nasal twang are TO be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh, the
most common and dreadful of diseases, is
a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh gem
orally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follows sensitiveness of the
air passages which incline one TO catch
cold very easily. At last the person has a
cold all the while seemingly, more or less
discharge from the nose, hawking spit
ting, frequent clearing of the throat, nos
trils stopped up, full feeling in the head
and sore, infamed throat.
The best time To treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peruna prop
erly used never fails to cure n common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured OF
chronic catarrh by single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as rule, when the caterrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than one
bottle Is necessary to complete cure.
Peruna has cured cases innumerabl BILE
OF .catarrh of twenty years standing.
1t is the best, If not the only internal
remedy for chronic catarrh in existence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at
this season of the year and thus prevent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh.
