Going through the hospitals in our
large cities one is surprised to find such
q large proportion of the patients lying
on those snow white beds women
and girls. who are either awaiting
or recovering from serious opera
tons.
Why should this be the case? Sim
PLY because they have neglected them
selves. Ovarian and womb troubles
are certainly on the increase among
the women of this country-they creep
upon them unawares. but every ooe of
those patients in the hospital beds had
plenty Of warning in that bearing

the womb. nervous exhaustion, pain in

symptoms are indications of an IN

SUSPECTS Arrested and Released.

Three young white str angers, who
gave their names as John Dugan,
Charles Davis and Wort Chester, were
arrested Sunday forenoon by officers
of the local police force on the danger
GUS and suspicious charge. The men
were attempting to dispose OF razors
and fake iewelry, and could give no
satisfactory explanation as to how
they acquired the articles. In view
of the fact thai Vittur's cutlery store
in New Orleans was broken into and
robbed some night last week it was
thought that the three strangers might
possibly have come by the razors in
that way, and Inspector Journee was
communicated with and notified of the
arrest. S. F. Phillips, representing
the Vittur establishment, came up to
Wednesday night with
q letter Of Introduction to Sheriff St.
Martin from Inspector Journee and
made g careful examinatio of the
razors found on the suspects, but
failed to identity them as being among
The number stolen from Vittur's. The
three strangers were released from
custody Thursday morning and lost i
no time ia shaking the dust OF Dom
from their feet. Davis |
claimed TO be o resident OF New Or
cans, Dugan said he was from Alex
sndria and Chester asserted that his
1ome was In the state of Arkansas.

Perez-RodeiIlat.

Eldridge Perez, a well-known young
citizen of Plaquemines parish, and
Miss Aurelia Rodeillat. of Donaldson
vile, were married at the Catholic
church at 5 o'clock p. m. Thursd ay,
Rev. Father Massardier officiating.
The bride entered the church upon the
arm of her relative, Nicholas Eris,
Jr., and was met at the altar rail by
the groom and his best man, Mic
Marie. Miss Olympic Perez was maid
of honor and the other attendants
were Sydney Leblanc and Miss Emily
Blanchard and Frank Codifer and
Miss Josie Martinez. After the eere-
mony q reception was held at the resi-
dence of Nicholas Eris, Sr., where the
bride has made her home for num-
Der of years. Mr.. Perez is in charge
OF the dredge-boat which has been
operating in Bayou Lafourche for the
past several months and is member
OF prominent family in Plaquemines
parish. His bride is a pretty and ac-
eomplished young lady and numbers
her friends by the score. The Chief
wishes the young couple all the happi-
ness that married life can possibly af-
ford.

The Cotton Convention.

| The much heralded convention of
the southern states cotton growers
came TO aclose late Thursday evening,
after having been in session since
Tuesday morning. Considering the
great size Of the gathering-about two
thousand delegates having been pres.
ent-the numerous interests repre-
sented and the many different ideas
brought forth, the convention was
most harmonious body, despite the
fact that there had been no previous
organization and the movement vas
more In the nature Of an experiment
than anything else. # the plans
adopted by the convention are carried
out even reasonably well much good
will result to the cotton industry in the
south and this section of the country
should experience prosperity hitherto
undreamed of.
Briefly SUNNI arized. the work Of the
convention shows that It was de-
elded to reduce the acreage of the cot
ton crop Is per cent during the current
year, TO curtail the use of fertilizer Is
per cent, and to hold the balance of
the present crop until the market price
shall have reached a minimum Of 10 /
cents at the seaboard. The conven. |
ton took steps looking to the organi- |
cation Of the farmers 10 every one of |
The 81 cotton growing counties in the
southern states and in every political
Of these counties, and
resolutions were adopted urging these
ocal org aniz cations to discourage as
ar as possible the granting or ad-
rances o. financial assistance 10 arg

YaLeasaela Chapel Dedicated.

The pretty little Catholic chapel at
Valenzuela, about four miles below
Donaldsonyille, vas dedicated last
Monday with solemn and impressive
services. Archbishop Chapelle. who
came up from New Orleans for the
purpose Of taking part in the cere-
monies, celebrated low mass at 7:3O a.
a. and at $50 o'clock the dedicatory
services began, with the archbishop
officiating. His reverence was as
sisted by eight priests, among them
being Rev. j. NJ. 7. Massardier, of
Donaldsonyille, and Rev. Jules
Bouchet, Of Plattenville The bless
ing Of the bell, which was performed
from the outside OF the edifice, pre-
ceded the conservation OF the chapel.
The sponsors were Mr.. and Mrs. J
P. Kock, MIR. and Mrs. s. Prejean.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Dalferes and Mr..
and Mrs. Edward Maurin. The arch
bishop delivered beautiful and elo-
quent sermon, during the course of
which. he took occasion to paw a.
deserved tribute to the good people of
the community and to the committee
which supervised the building of the
pretty little house OF worship. Afser
the dedication OF the chapel a solemn
high mass was sung, Rev. Father
Bouehet officiating. The day was
observed as a holiday, all OF the
business establishments il the vicinity
having closed their doors, and the peo-
pie turned out en- masse to witness the |
interesting ceremonies. The attend |
snce proved too large for the capacity |
of the chapel and large portion OF |
the congreg alton were forced TO view |
the services from the outside of the
building. At o'clock in the after
noon Archbishop Chape1le, the visit
ing priests and =. A. Dalferes and
Geo. @. Bellocq, of the building com
mittee, we're entertained at dinner at
the hospitable home of J. P. Kock, on
Belle Alliance plantation. The arch
bishop, who was the guest OF Mr.,
kock during his stay, returned to
New Orleans Tuesday morning.

At the Play.

The HollingsWorth Twins Stock
Company presented ssUnder Southern
| Moss" to very small audience Mon
day night and made an attempt to re-
peat the bill Wednesday, Thursday
| and Friday nights, but on each occa-
sion there was nothing doing because
of the lack of an audience. The COM
pany is still in town, having been en-
gagged for week, and will present at
a matinee today 1.-THE Hoosier Kids
"Under Southern Moss will be put
on tonight if there is any body in the
house.
Duncan Clark's Female Minstrels
held the boards Tuesday night and to
say that the show was rotten would be
putting it mildly. The cast was made
up of five men and nine women, and
none of the latter would annex even SO
much as a BOBBY prize at q beauty
show. The entire aggregation should
be taking in washing for living or
snbsisting in some other way than by
imposing on the patience of a long
suffering pnblic. The performance
consisted of tuneless songs badly rem
dered. stale jokes poorly gotten of
and series of living pictures that
were libel on the originals. The
bunch Of transformers exhibited about
as much life as an Egyptian mummy
and the only thing in the program
with the least bit of movement in it
was a tame sparring match between
Mr.. and Mrs. Somebody-or-other from
Missouri. The show was far and away
the FUNNIEST that the Phpnix patrons
have ever been inflicted with and
lacked even the redeeming virtue
from q male point Of view--of being
naughty.
Tomorrow night the Olympia Opera
Company will present 1.-THE Telephone
Girl. with Edward Eagleton, Lottie
Kendall and Carl Haydn in the lead
ing roles. The organization has been
appearing at the Lyric theatre in New
Orleans for some time past and will
wind up successful engagement at
that playhouse tonight. MIR. Eagle
ton, who is q comedian of much
ability, is said to be at his best in the
character OF Hans Nix, Inspector of
Telephones" and Miss Kendall and
Mr.. Haydn have roles in "The Tele-
phone Girl'' that are thoroughly con-
genial and afford them excellent OPP
portnnity for the exploitation of their
talents. The supporting company is
unusually capable and the chorus is
said to contain number of pretty and
graceful girls. 1.-THE Telephone Grip
promises to score success tomorrow
night.
Hubert Labadie in "Faustn is an
nounced as the bill for Wednesday
night, and it is safe to say that this
attraction will prove of the best and
most enjoyable of the current season.
MIR. I4abadie has been seen here
several times before and has never
failed to make good impression.
This season he is surrounded with a
strong and well-balanced company
and is presenting Goethe's magnifi-
cent drama in a manner that leaves
little to be desired. The scenery and
electrical effects used in Mr.. Labadie's
production OF stFa aust are said to be
ma:gnifeent and startling and the cos
tunes fill every requirement of the
beautiful play.
