That PatoutvilIe needs an

OtlCI ioOti W ilo stbCoi was dS-
termlned by the committee OF
the Board of Education that
visited that section. 1t was
found that there will be enough
children there to warrant the
immediate building of the third
room and that in all probability
before another year comes it
will be necessary to still further
increase the building.
A plan for the addition to
the building was presented but
IT was considered that this was
not proper in view of the prob
able additions that may have to
I be made later and the architect
was instructed to draw another
plan which will be presented to
the committe on Saturday when
1t is probable that the work will
be ordered done at once.
Under the direction of Street
Commissioners, Mr.. John Fisher
the cutters in the center OF the
City are again being placed IN
order. 1t is the idea that now
there will be no more growth OF
weeds and that this will proba
bIy clear the way for water if
rain sets in shortly.
Plantation owners report that
there is not enough labor here
to enable them to cut their cane
crops as rapidly as they would
like. 1t is expected that when
the season is in full swing as it
will be after next Monday that
the demand for hands will far
exceed the supply.
Small game seems to be quite
Plentiful hereabouts. Messrs.
J. A. Coudroy Ralph Landry
and Felix Guerin returned Mon
day from the Bayou Tigre
much pleased with their success
in bagging many snlre, doves
and ducks on Sunday. 1t was
great day of sport and prob
ably will be repeated several
times this fall.
During an alteration on Sat
urday evening on the Enterprise
Plantation at Patoutville ne
gro named Henry Freeman was
stabbed and killed by another
negro named Lyman Wise who
escaped. Corner Sanders held
the inquest over the body and
the jury broght in a verdict OF
murder against the fugitive.
The many friends of Mr.. Isl
dor w. Gajan will be pleased to
know that he has been appointed
one OF the editorial staff of the
Tulane Weekly published by
the students at that college.
This little college paper is quite
an interesting publication and
MIR. Gajan's pen will make it
all the more readable.
The first frost of the season
was seen hcreabouts Monday |
when the thermometer regis
tered about Al at the lowest
mark. AT various points about
the City the Thermometers re-
gistered from al to as high as
a. at four o'clock that morning
and the frost was plainly obser
vable on all sides.
The Pastime musical club
held very pleasant rehearsal
"Wednesday with a full member
ship present. The members
are very we'll pleased over the
way the music is going and there
is forming an idea that a con-
cert will be given before very
long so as to give the friends of
the members an opportunity to
learn how well the club is doing.
The fire alarm last Tuesday
morning was for a little blaze on
the roof OF the residence of
Mrs. u. S. Haase. The Fire
Department went to the back of
town on the alarm which was
wrong and failed to find the
blaze. 1t was extinguished
however without its assistance.
DR.. E. l.. Lewis, veterinary
surgeon, recently practicing at
Franklin, and well-known all
over the State, will make this
City bis future home. Until
he has established an Office, he
will be located at Taylor's drug
store.
Dealers in horses and mules

winter the trade will pick up to
