Work on 8. p. Road Progressing.

A visit to Wilbert in West Baton
Rouge parish shows that the South
ern Pacific Railroad is actively at
work pilling its bridges along the
line of the Port Allen-Lafayette
branch and the unconstructed stretch
of nine miles necessary to connect the
road already built on the east and
west side of the Atchafalaya river is
being actively put In. The opening
of this road will take place during
the coming fall season, and the fact
that arrangements have been perfect
ed for the use of the Colorado South
ern inclines on the west side of the
river in exchange for the use of the
Illinois Central inclines on the east
side of the crossing insures almost in
stantaneous operation as soon as the
road has been completed through and
over the Atchafalaya river, where
some trouble has been experienced
in completing the bridge over that
stream.

BLOOD FLOWS IN ST. DUEL
Two Men Were Killed and
Others are Injured.
MEADVILLE SCENE OF The TRAGEDY
Feeling Runs High, and State Troops
are Now i'm Meadville Guarding
Against Possibility Of Riot
ing.

Meadville, Miss.-Two men are
dead, two were perhaps fatally
wounded and three others slightly
injured in a bloody street battle here,
waged by parties to bitter feud that
had been previously marked with
tragedy AS a result of the affair,
feeling here runs high and state
troops were rushed to Meadville from
Brookhaven to guard against possi-
bility of rioting.
Those killed in the ARRAY were DR..
A. M. Newman, clerk of the chancery
court of Franklin county, and Silas
G.. Reynolds. DIR. Lenox Newman,
son of one of the slain men, is be-
lieved to have been fatally injured
and Herbert Applewhite, an attorney
may not recover as the result of his
wounds. Emmett Newman, another
son, was shot in the leg. The three
were taken to Natchez for medical at
tention after having been formally
placed under arrest. Two men NAM
ed Boyd and Parr, alleged to have
been involved in the ARRAY, were
slightly wounded but escaped and
have not been captured.
L. p. Prichard, a brother of Corne-
Illus Prichard, whom DR.. Newman
killed seven weeks ago, was arrested
and charged with completely in the
tragedy.
The killing of Prichard by Newman
was the first bloodshed. to mark a
feud that has existed between the
two men, relatives and friends fol-
months. This bitter factionalism had
its inception in a political campaign
in which Newman and Prchard were
opposing candidates.
| Newman was tried few weeks age
for Prichard's murder and was &C.
Quilted. This served to arouse even
more bitter feeling among the rela'
tives, and friends of Prichard and the
Newman family and faction.
Mondays fight occurred almost
on the same spot where Prichard was
slain. Apparently Newman, was first
fired upon as he was passing the
Butler building in his buggy. The
shot came from one of the rooms or
the second floor of the building. Il
failed to take effect and Newman
jumped from his buggy, rushed tt
the front of the building, drawing hi
pistol, it is asserted in the meantime
1t is claimed that as Newman
reached the sidewalk he was attacked
by Reynolds and Applewhite. Som
of DR.. Newman, who were nearby
rushed to the scene and engaged II
the duel.
Numerous volleys were exchanged
but it is apparently in doubt as Il
who fired the fatal shots.

Crop Pest Commission Issues
Report.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS favor WEEVIL
More Than Twenty Per Cent of Bugs
Confined Last Fall Hibernated.
German Kills Companion
ST. With an Ak.


The Crop Pest Commission has is
sued its regular periodical report on
on the results of the experiment at
Mansura,, La, in determing the pre-
centage of weevil surviving the win
ter. The report shows that the num-
ber of weevil emerging from winter
quarters in the latter part of May
and the early part of June has been
far greater than was expected. The
emergence of weevil from hiberna-
tion during March and April was
very heavy, and it was hoped by the
commission that the majority of the
weevil had emerged before the mid
die Of May. This has not proved to
be the case, however, and the num-
ber of additional weevil coming out
of winter quarters between May 20
and June has 2welled the total num-
Der of surviving weevil to over 20
per cent of the number confined in
the cages last fall. The emergence
of some weevil during early June
was naturally expected as the exam
ination of many cotton fields in Cen
trail Louisiana last spring showed a
steady increase in the number OF
weevil in the fields during the latter
part of May and the first part of
June. Out of the 1921 adult wee
vii confined in the Mansura cages
last fall, a total of 3297 have this
spring come out of the rubbish in
the cages. The cages are removed.
with the result that no errors can
be made as to the dates upon which
the weevil come out of their winter
quarters, and the commission is Sc
curing q complete record of the num-
Der of weevil leaving winter quarters
every day from Feb. up to the pre-
sent time. The 1927 weevil now out
of Information constitute 20 Ia per
cent of the original 1921. This
Is by far the largest percentage of
survival ever recorded in such an ex-
pertinent, either in Texas or Louis
lana, and striking shows how favor
able the climate and other conditions
are in Central Louisiana to large
winter survival of the pests. In the
Mansura cages that were started be-
tween Sept. 2S and Oct. 20, 1908, 2
$40 per cent of the weevil have thus
far emerged, which means that OH
the farms where all cotton plants
we're destroyed before Oct. 20 less
than per cent of the weevils have
survived the winter to attack the
crop this spring. The cages con-
tanning weevils gathered from the
