OPERA HOUSE.

Considerable activity has existed
during the week, looking to the build
ing of al opera house and hotel Tor
our City. Several propositions have
been submitted, but nothing definite
has as vet been arrived at, Mr.. A. b.
Murray, proprietor of the late Ven
dome Opera House, destroyed by hre
some months ago, has been in the
field seeking to organize q stock COM
pany for the rebuilding on the old
site q modern house, which will meet
the requirements of our City. Sub
scriptions have been made amounting
to Sl3 900 and considerable encourage
ment has been given Mr.. Murray by
some of our citizens, who are anxious
to see a house built. There are some
other propositions on foot, which are
offered by syndicates engaged in this
line OF business, who may be induced
to build here. One fact is patent to
all investors, that is, that here is q
City Of nearly 10000 population,
noted for its patronage of opera houses
and theatres, without any such build
ing and those wishing an evenings
entertainment must 60 to Lafayette,
our sister town, and the additional
expense of hotels till next day. Last
Sunday more than $50 persons visited
Lafayette to enjoy the novelties at
their opera house. We trust that the
work of Mr.. Murray or any others
looking to the building Of . play
house will be successful and that be-
fore another season comes round we
shall have q modern up-to-date house
of at least 1000 seating capacity, with
stage room sufficient for all the spec
tacular plays. No more inviting field
for this class Of investment exists in
Louisiana, than in this the fourth
CITY of the State. We trust that our
situation may be discovered BY those
(! having money to invest and at once
take steps to erect this great public
utility. In this connection we might
say that some few citizens are quietly
working for the erection of hotel,
another great need Of our town. That
we are without modern hotel accom-
modations is matter Of surprise to
many of the strangers who visit rs
and the absence of such, no doubt de-
ters many from coming here. This
town needs a 30 room hotel with all
the conveniences and appliances that
modern hotel building has evolved,
and those who put their money into
such can be assured of o good return
in their investment. 1t is but Ques-
ton, that these modern structures
will be erected in our City.

How 1t Should Be Used.

Two molders were once out of work,
and were at their wits ends what to
do for living.
AT last one of them conceived an
idea. They went to the place where
they nsed to work and begged some
sand, which they made up into packets,
and sold them as certain destroyer
of. beetles" They had no difficulty in
disposing of them.
An old lady bought the last packet
and asked how to use it.
One Of the men then said:
well, as you have bought the last
packet will tell you. You first of all
catch the beetle, tickle it with feath-
er till 1t laughs, then drop some of the
sand down its throat and choke it."

have elected her an honorary captain

Her royal highness was Princess
Marie d'Crleans, and her husband,
Prince Waldemar, is Queen Alexan-
dra's youngest brother.
Whenever there is big fire the
princess is to be seen wading with her
heavy boots through the streams of
water to where the fire is fiercest, and
it is hardly necessary to say that the
presence o fthe princess inspires the
firemen to display still greater cour-
age.

visits the fire stations, conyerses with
the officers and watches the men at
their athletic exercises.-Era Maya
