Little Pickups That Help to Tell
The News of The Week

The auction sale of lots in the
ComingtOn addition advertised
for last Saturday was prevented
by rain. At the hour appointed
the sale was begun very promis-
ingly, but the rain caused the
abandonment of the sale.
Monday morning an alarm of
fire was given, caused by the
roof of a small cottage on Lin
coin avenue catching fire. The
cottage is the property OF Mrs.
p. Gerac. The fire was extin.
guished before any great dam
age was done.
Mr.. Ursin Hoffpauir of the
second ward reports that a
Jersy COW on his place gave
birth about a week ago to twin
male calves. Both calves are
doing fine and are just alike.
The efficiency of the electric
light service was greatly re-
duced last week by the breaking
of the piston on the large engine.
Manager Muller by quick work
managed to repair the damage in
a few days.
The Lafayette Building Asso-
citation is now installed in it's
new Office next to the First Nat
ional Bank with Secretary Bios
sat on deck from 8 to II every
day. ParkersOn & MOutOn, in
surance agents, occupy half the
building.

An interesting social event of
the week owing to the promi-
nence and popularity of the con-
tracing parties, was the marriage
of Mr.. Paul Coussan and Miss
Philomene Doucet. which took
place Thursday evening at 6 D..
M, at st. Johns Catholic church.
At the appointed hour the
groom and his best man, Mr.. J..
Ovey Herpin, arrived at the
church and entered the sacristy
and there awaited the arrival of
the bride. A little later the
bride tastefully gowned in white
lawn and carrying a beautiful
bouquet of white roses and ferns
tied with ribbon, looking pretty
and graceful, entered the church
and marched to the altar, leaning

on the arm of her brother, Mr..
j. DOucet. She was preceded
by her maid of honor, Hiss
Marie Dubernard, who was also
dressed in white lawn. They were
met at the altar by the groom
ard his best man, and Father
LanglOiS after addressing a few
appropriate words to the young
couple, pronounced the impress
sive ceremony that made them
man and wife.
The bride is a handsome daugh-
ter of Mrs. CleObule DOucet.
The groom is an energetic and
worthy young man. He is ma
tive of CarencrO. but has been a
resident of Lafayette for d long
time.
After the wedding a reception
was held at the residence of the
brides sister, Mrs. J. E. Pri-
meauX and refreshments served.
Only near relatives were present.
They received a number of
handsome presents.
That night Mr.. and Mrs. Cous-
san drove over to CarencrO where
they spent several days at the
home of Mr.. COusSan'S mother.
They will make their home in
Lafayette. The Advertiser
wishes them a long and happy
life.

cient school accommodations fOl

lty by the establishment of two
cOmmodiOus and we'll furnished
buildings, with large play
grOunds--One on each side of the
railroad; (2) to extend the water
and light service to those parts
of the town not already supplied
with these cOnvenienceS: and (3)
to replace the present undesir-
able meeting house of the City
Council with a more becoming
building for the transaction of
public business, therefore
Be it resolved, That it is the
conviction of the women of Lafa-
yette, in mass meeting assembled
that all of the improvements it is
purpOsed to carry out under the
terms of the proposed bond
issue, are all important and
necessary for the present and
the future welfare of the com
munity; and it is the sincere
hope and earnest prayer of the
mothers, wives and sisters
whose lives are being spent in
building up the social, moral and
material interests of the homes
in our beloved little city
that all the property tax
payers in Lafayette will rally
around the standard of progress
and patriotism on the 18th day
of May, 1906, and vote solidly in
favor of the proposed bond issue
for municipal improvements;
and
Be it further resolved, That
the women of Lafayette do
solemly pledge their active and
united cooperation in ensuring
the success of this movement for
necessary and urgent public i'm
prOyementS.
A resolution was passed re-
questing the ladies of Lafayette
to send in their names to the
secretary and affiliate themselves
with the organization.
This concluded the business
of the meeting and adjournment
was had.
