Professional Licenses.

Edgard, La.
Dear Sir.
Tho records of the Auditors Office
show that in many parishes OF the State
Act No. I'll Of 1898, known as the
License law, is not ngidly enforced.
I have in mind, in particular, Section
No. IA which applies to physicians, at
torneys-at-law, dentists, oculists, editors.
photographers, jewellers and 90 on. This
section also affects certified public &C.
countants, midwives. veterinarians, in
fact, any one practicing profession Of
any kind.
The law requires that a graduated
license shall be issued and provided for
the manuer in which same shall be
granted.
As all unpaid licenses become delin-
quent on the 1st day Of March, imme-
diste steps should be taken to enforce
this law wherever it is necessary. The
result il bound to be that the revenue
OF the State win be increased many
thousands Of dollars.
It Is hardly necessary for me to re-
mind you that the Governor has appoint
ed q special attorney in each parish
whose duty it is to collect delinquent
licenses.

Base Ball.

The Garyville ball tossers downed the
fast Port Allen team last Sunday after
noon at Garyville Park in one OF the
most interesting contest that has been
witnessed in many day by the fans OF
Lumbertown, by score of 6 to 2.
While the home boys did not have to
extend themselves, they played much
faster, snappier game than they have
put up on the local grounds this season,
and the lightning double play. retiring
the side in the third, when the bases
were full. worked ike piece Of well
creased machinery, and reminded the
enf1,.,1ko n1iasroOters e tl,e clann shown

Kid oglesby, the locals slabbist, did
not exert himself until the last inning
when he tightened up and struck out
the last two men. Six hits were regist.
cred against him, but none were direct
" responsible for runs.
Tomorrow, on the same diamond, the
locals will battle with the fast American
Sugar Refinery, Of New Orleans, and 9
hot game is expected. Both teams are
composed strictly Of semi-profeaaional
base bah players who can handle the
sphere with little or no trouble.
Tock C,,ndou ~ Cfar porlr the Cams

but interesting game, by score of 1e

and play Tor purse of $50. Buster
Brown Hart will be on the mound fol-
the Gems, while Sweet Hart will dc
