RAILROADS SUFFER
BAD WASHOUTS
The Heavy and Incessant Rains
OF Past Several Days Did
Considerable Damage.

The heavy rains of last week
lnterfered materially with the
traffic of the railroad lines center
ing in Winfield.
On the Rock Island there was
considerable damage done to the
track between Dubach and Bern
ice. At Bayou D'Arbonne $50
feet of the embankmcnt was
washed from under the track and
at Middle Greek. there occurred a
washout of 30 feet. These serious
breaks on the line interrupted
traffic of all kinds for four or five
days. and caused no little incon-
yenience to both travellers and
business interests. Repairs were
projected on both sides of the
gaps and fastened to completion
as rapidly as possible. The pile
driver of the fremont G Gulf
was brought into requisltion to
facilitate the work of repair.
There is scarcely a roadbed
located here whose traffic has not
been more or less interfered with
by the continued heavy rains,
which have flooded the lowlands
everywhere, interrupted trayel
and caused damage to railroad
lines and the crops as well.
The fremont & Gulf has been
making regular time and is fortu-
nate in this respect. The closest
watch is kept to prevent damage
to the track.

Base Ball.
As a finale to the commence
ment exercises of the Winfield
High School, a series of games
were played between mines of the
Louisiana Baptist College of
Alexandria and the Winfield
High School.
The line up of the two mines
was as follows:
Louisiana College-Adams, 1st
base; Almond, End base; d. G..
McCuller, 3rd base; G. I. Nc

Moore, End base; Hasson Barnes,
3rd base; w. Cupp, left field;
Miley Durham, right field; Robt.
Gamble, center field; j. Smith,
short stop.
The first game played Friday
afternoon, resulted IN a score of
4 to 2 in favor of Winfield.
The second contest, played on
Saturday, was won by the LOU
isiana College, 4 to 2. A third
game was inaugurated but was
called off on account of lam,
before five innings were played,
and hence the break was an even
one with the same score in both
games.

TO PUT ON
The WORK

This morning Keeper of Rec
ords and Seals Charles Gasho of
the local lodge knights of Pyth-

ton to the effect that Wednes-

tion. The business sessions of the

1t is expected that every lodge in
the western slope district will be
represented by large delegations, and
much enthusiasm is being aroused
in the convention.

representatives of all the lodges of
the district. Candidates for the rank

that the invitation will be accepted.

CAUSED MUCH LAUGHTER.

Much amusement and interest has
been created today by a big, ugly
but sensible baboon owned by the
tent show people. who open an en-
gagemenr in the city tonight.
The baboon seems to take delight
in entertaining those people who per-
sist in gazing at him.
This morning, on someone's invi-
tation. his baboonship took a glass
of beer. and, before he had satisfied
himself, three full bottles of beer had
disappeared: yet Mr.. Baboon didn't
seem to be the least bit shaky about
the knees.
He also seems to relish the sui
phuric heads of matches. His an
tics and almost human actions have
created much merriment. When he
becomes indignant he chatters terri
bly, and makes horrible grimaces.
Along with the baboon, the show
carries a fine specimen of black
bear. a small monkey and some in
telligent dogs. These animals do spe-
cialties between acts.
