Damaged Gotten.

A visit to the Compress Monday re-
veaIed to us evidence of inexplicable
carelessness ON the part Of the farmer
in storing and preserving his cotton.
It is inexplicable, as we said before
how farmers should toll hard and
earnestly to make crop, and then
allow the fruit Of their labors to rot
to an extent as to cut the market
value in almost half.
The records Of one firm shows that
during the past month over FIVE hnn-
dred bales Of cotton came 50 damaged
as TO cause loss of over seventy
pounds bale. Many bales were I'M
marketable, and we're rejected.
The trouble, we are told, is the
failure Of the farmers TO put their
bales off Of the ground, safe from
dampness. They were warned Of this
some months ago by Mr.. charleville,
but it appears paid little heed to it.
They shall know better next time.

Uptown Express Office.

Supt. ]. Fl. Hyde, of Wells Fargo
Express Co., was here Monday looking
for a suitable location to put the
company's Office up town. No definite
place has been accepted, but it is
certain we will have an uptown Office
in the near future.
The public will appreciate this move
on the part of the Company.
The uptown Office has been located
in the Boagni building, formerly the
Bloch store, corner of Main and Belle
yue streets.
The credit for this convenience is
almost entirely due to Judge w. G.
Perrault. Convinced that the COM
munity required an uptown office, he
went to work and instituted a rule
against the express company before
the Railroad Commisson. Instead of
answering the rule the compony
granted the demand.

Cashier Jacobs On A Vacation.

Mr.. Jonas Jacobs, the efficient
cashier of the st. Landry State Bank,
left on last Sunday for a ninety days
summer vacation.
The steady, hard labors of a bank
cashier, in which he has been engaged
for SO many years, made it necessary
for him to take a rest, and at the
urgent solicitation of the bank di-
rectors, he Reluctantly consented.
Mr.. A. 7. Castillo, heretofore first
assistant cashier, was placed in charge
as acting cashier, which position he
will hold until Mr.. Jacobs regains his
health and returns. Mr.. Castillo is
a worthy substitute for the efficient
sick cashier.

Stamina sella NIeka.

Sam Campase, a dago laborer work
ing near Barbreck, had prosperous
business career rudely checked by
Deputy U. 5. Marshal Milspaugh Mon
day.
He had been selling whiskey and wine
on the q. t. and without the knowledge
and consent of his step-pa, Uncle Sam.
aTis said that he had been engaged
in the business for several years there,
and even before he went there ne
practised Mclean ways at ST. Peters.
It was impossible for the officers to
get facts sufficient to arrest him, for
the reason that he confined his sales
to his countrymen, and dago can't
understand English a bit when it comes
to telling tales out of school on a
eountryman.
But in his eagerness for mon he
fell into trap laid for him, in which
a cullud gemmin played the part Of
Shylock Holmes. The darkey applied
for flask of whiskey, and the dago
sold it to him.
Then trouble began. Deputy Nils
paugh, accompanied by his dusky de-
tective, went to Sans house and
charged him with selling whiskey
without revenue license. He denied
it strenuously, and when the officer re-.
minded him that he had sold flask
to the negro present, Sam dramatically
exclaimed: No, no, / give him wieka
maka present he giva de mon maka
me present de mon. No sella.
That wouldn't go, and he was
brought to town and Monday plead
guilty before Commissioner Littell,
and was placed under a $500 bond.
But his troubles did not end there
no sooner had he gotten out of Uncle
Sans clutches before Marion got him,
and he had to furnish $3.50 bond to
the State before he could leave sOpe-
lousas.

FRANCE Anglers JAPAN.
Aid Given Russian Fleet Regarded as
Breach of Neutrality.

Vi
TOXIC, Jan. 1.-THE French are
sharply criticized for permitting the
ships of the second Pacific squadron
of the Russian navy to make a pro-
longed stay at Madagascar. Heretofore
the Japanese press and people, reallz-
ing the peculiar position In Whlch
France was placed, were not disposed
to judge her actions too severely, put
the Asahi to-day says:
1T is no longer possible to overlook
the French nom observance of neutral
ity. or her disregard for the obligations
of a neutral nation Coaling the ships
of the second Pacific squadron in
French ports has eliminated in allow
ing Rear Admiral Rodjestvensky to re-
main for twelve days awaiting rein
forcements, and in the use of Madagas-
car as a base of operations against the
Japanese fleet, now reported in the In
dian Ocean.
Such action is little less than hos
tile, and If France is sincere in her
promise Of strict neutrality the ships
of the second Pacific squadron ought
long ago to have been sent away or dis
armed. Further temporizing for the
purpose of rendering assistance to the
Russian vessels must be considered
serious breach of neutrality"
BERLIN, Jan. 1.-THE Japanese
Government, taking cognizance of an
impression that Germany has not OBJ
served strict neutrality, has sent a for
NAL dispatch of thanks to the German
Government. 1t expresses the convic-
ton that Germany has fulfilled her
duties as a neutral throughout the war
with exactness. especially during the
recent events in the war zone.
PARIS, Jan. 1.-THE officials here
say that the Japanese criticism of
France relative to the stay Of the Rus
sian second Pacific squadron at NADIA
gascar has no Importance, as the
squadron is no longer in French waters.
