POinte=a=la=HaChe.
Hon. Roselius Perez and Mr.. Leopold
Bayhi were in Pointe-a-la- Hache On
Monday on business.
The Point Pleasant and Po~inte-a-la-
Hache boys crossed bats Sunday on the
green in front of St. Thomas Catholic
Church, and n of the fastest games
of the season was played. The Point
Pleasant boys played a good game but
our boys were on their mettle and prov
ed too much for them, defeating them
by a score Of 8 to 6. The Point Pleas
ant boys are a jolly good crowd and left
here after many loud shouts and hur-
rah's, with the understanding that they
would cross bats again in the near fu-
ture with our boys on their WI dia~
mond.
Sheriff Movers arrested Paul and
Simeon Troyani in New Orleans on a
warrant charging them with drinking
whiskey and disturbing the peace on
the New Orleans Fl. Jackson and Grand
Isle railroad on July 3. John Nillen,
under the same charge could not be
found. The police of the city of New
Orleans are looking for him. The prac-
tice of drinking whiskey or intoxicating
liquor on passenger trains must be
stopped as it is a state law. And we
hope the Dist. Attorney will prosecute
all violations to the fullest extent, and
that the Judge will impart to the vlo-
'~lators, the limit Of the law in such
cases.
The barn of MIR. Clement Bulot in
Buras burnt to the ground on Monday
last. The barn contained implements
and feed, all of which was a total loss,
amounting to $500 without insurance.
!, Cause Of fire unknown.
A game of base bali is scheduled for
tomorrow, between Jesuits Bend and
Pointe-a-la -Hache. to be played at the
latter place.
