New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1907-04-27

W nat 'iiS'll ot SdiIeu Close
t call was that which Messrs
a Alphe FonteIieu, Henry Dau
! terive, Zoe HanIey and Henry
5 Patout experienced Wednesday,
when they got into the delivery
! wagon OF the Dauterive-ki
Furniture Company and started
out for the depot. In turning
the horses, the wagon was cap
sized and as luck would have
it none of them was seriously
y hurt. Dauterlve received a
very severe cut on the leg, Pat
out was bruised about the head
and MIR. Fontelen sustained a
few cuts on his right arm, Han
ley escaped unhurt, but like all
the Others was unable to say
how it happened. Had it not
been for the prompt action OF
Messrs. A. g. Barrow and
Frank Dauterrve they might
not have been able to tell the
tale.
Preparations are going a'ong
NIGEL for the celebration of
treman's Day on the roth OF
May. The Committee OF Ar
engagements IS busy getting its
program in shape. 1t will in
cIude several match races at Che
race track, and tournament
that will be most interesting.
Several of the Fire Companies
are busy already planning how
to decorate their apparatus and
indications are that the parade
will I've one Of the best ever seen
here.
Mr.. A. Fonteleu left Fri
day for New York, to be gone
some time. In leaving he states
that be has passed all his prop
erty here into the name of his
wife 50 that she may cast his
vote Tor the proposed railroad
to Port Barre. He said he
hoped to find both this line and
the Trolley running when he
returns and he has given Mr..
Frank Dauterive $500 to use in
the campaign for the railroad
tax IT necessary.
There is a strong feeling that
while the trolley is building it
would pay to run a line past
loreauvlIIe TO the Lakes.
Judge l.. O. Hacker, who is
thoroughly familiar with that
section is authority for the
statement that if the company
were to build there the right of
way would be given, some OF
the people along the line would
construct the roadbed and others
would assist by taking stock in
the company if required.
The offices of the Board of
Education were moved Wcdnes-
day morning to the recently pur.
chased property OF the Parish at
Weeks and St. Peter Streets.
This is a much handler place
for the Board of Superintendent
since it is just across the street
from the High School. The
new quarters can now be ar
ranged in more attractive
manner.
On next Wednesday evening,
May LIST, the Iberia Building AS
ISOLATION will again offer to the
public money for the purpose of
Of building homes or raising mort ;
cages. The Secretary, Mr. w. g.
Weeks will explain you the work
ings of the Association.

to further the interests OF the ]
Unsectarlsn Aid Society May t
