in the hands OF large body of ex-

presents very nice appearance, both
from the standpoint of a citizen and
from passengers as they pass through

CHASED AND WILL ERECT A MODERN
ICE PLANT At THEIR MILL.
WILL GREATLY BENEFIT WELSH
1t is Expected to have the Plant
in Running Order in Time to Supply
the Coming Seasons Trade.

tured in our own town, by our own

The Gulf Rice Milling Company
has purchased the Crowley plant and
will soon have same erected upon
their mill property east OF town.
This plant is of fifteen tons capacity
and in good shape, and was disposed
of by the Crowley tirul, only in order
that they might erect larger one, so
as to enable them to meet the increas-
ing demands for their product.
O. S. Carr, of this place, is at
Crowley experimenting crew OF men,
who are dismanteling the plant and
getting it in shape for transportation
1t is expected that it will be ready tc
ship in a few days, when work upor
its erection will be pushed as rapidly
as possible. Mr.. Calkins, presiden
of the Gulf Rice Milling Co., says ht
expects it to be ready for operation
about April lst; in time to supply TIT
demand.
This plant Is to be located on
hundred feet east of the rice mill ant
will be complete in itself, being run b,
it's own engines and boilers.
The establishing of this plant is
move in the right direction and on
which ali public spirited citizens vii
appreciate and applaud and Welsh i
to be congratulated upon having me
who have the means and inclination t.
finance and carry through such enter
prises.
Such improvements as these, togetf
er with the gradual but constar
growth of our town and vicinity, in
presses all fair minded men with til
fact that this is one of the best place
in southwestern Louisiana.

COLONIES FORCED
UPON GERMANY

BERLIN. Nov. 2s-Chancellor Won
Bulow opened the colonial debate in
the Reichstag Wednesday. The CALLER
les were crowded.
In part Chancellor Won Bulow said
the colonies were passing through a Sc
we're crisis Only after a three years
war had the rising of rebels in German
Southwest Africa been suppressed.
Large sums were necessary for the de-
velopment of all the colonies. He was
sure that no chancellor and no Reich
stag would assume the responsibility
of giving UP the colonies. Germany
had colonies whether she wanted them
or not and must remain coloniziag
nation so long as she had a strong
feet
Herr Dernburg, the new colonial di-
rector. who addressed the House after
the Chancellor, pointed out the neces-
sity for the final independence of the
various German protectorates and their
eventual self government, adding that
it was the opinion OF the director that
colonization must begin with the build
ing of railroads. Professor Burgess,
Herr Dernburg added. had told him
that the United States was only able
10 suppress the rebellious Eilipinos
after the railroads had entered the ter
ritory of the insurgents.

weapon on the clerk. telling him to
hold up his hands and turn over the
cash in the drawer. Dilworth hap

told to hold up his hands. Thinking it

An experiment started few weeks

Chicago is desti-ed TO have far-reach-

gang of workingmen near their
church spent their luncheon hour in

lished coffee rooms in the parlors of
the church and went out and invited
the men TO come in and partake of
steaming hot coffee at a nominal sum.
The first day the patronage was small,
but the second day the capacity of the
church was taxed and the supply of
coffee gave out The third day an an

working men are served daily. In
