ton Company, capitalized at $3.50, 900,
filed its charter in New Orleans on
Thursday of last week. The officers
of the big concern are William Erwin
Caldwell of Louisville, KY, president;
William r. Taylor of New Orleans,

Jefferson county, KY, secretary and
treasurer. These gentlemen, with G..
Adolph Gondran of Donaldsonville
and ] James S. Clark of Jefferson
county, KY, make up the board OF
directors. The company has been
organized to purchase both the South

ated on the east bank of the Missis,
sippi river in Ascension and Iberville
parishes, and will sub-divide the two
places and dispose of the ground in
small lots to immigrants. At the
same time, provisions are made in the
charter whereby the corporation re-
tains the right to own and operate
stores on the two plantations and to
build railroads across the property at
any point it may desire. It is under
stood that the deal. has been closed,
and a great many Italian immigrants
who intend coming to Louisiana next
fall will find homes on this estate.
The two plantations acquired by the
company were bought at private sale
several months ago by Messrs. Cald-
we'll and Clark, of Kentucky, for the
consideration of $1,000 after having
been advertised to be sold under exec
utory process at the local courthouse
in order to satisfy a writ issued in the
suit of the New Orleans Real Estate

A Profitable Pilgrimage.

The w. F. M. S. of the Methodist
church have spent many pleasant
and profitable hours this year

described by Mrs. Apitz; Protestant
ism Mrs. Sour; Presbyterian Mis-
sions, Mrs. Parish; Methodist Epis-

paper followed on 1.-The Good and
Evil Wrought by the Friars in the
Philippines Mrs. Lusk. Mrs. De-
Long read of the great "Opportun-
tiles for Christian Work"
There could never be a people
more eager to receive the gospel
than the Philippines. They walk
many miles through the burning sun
to the Protestant mission services.
thousands Of them go on Saturday,
carrying their food with them, and
sit or lie on the hard floors at night,
so they may not miss any of the
Sunday services; walking back to
their homes on Monday. 1t is the
the duty of America to spread the
gospel light there.
Mrs. Grapp entertained the So
ciety, assisted by Mesdames Little
and Rowley. Supper and sociabil-
ity closed the session.
