to Members and Guests.

The Elks are now safely domiciled
in their new home on the corner Of
Congress and Buchanan streets, after
a long and tortuous journey from
their old quarters, cheered by the in
spring music Of drums, Sunday eve-
ming at 2:3O O'Clock the noble herd
congregated for last rendezvous on
the old stamping ground and then
took up the new homeward way.
Despite the fact that the new home has
been made comfortable by the install
tation OF handsome modern furnish
ings and equipments, like all good
householders the Elks found it impos-
sible to separate from many articles
that had become endeared by long use
and fond association. To preserve
these relics and mementoes the Ex-
alted Ruler, DIR. F. E. Girard and the
Exalted and highly honored Secretary
J. G. Barry issued call for grand

The Cane Crop.
Louisiana Planter.)


The fair weather experienced dur
ing the past week has given full op
portunity for the prosecution of cane
planting and this work has been
pushed to the utmost and is now in a
fair way toward completion all over
the sugar district. Some complaints
of defective seed continue to be made
but they are not numerous enough
to indicate any special damage OF
this character. The temperature has
been unseasonably high. but this can
not be considered injurious and the
conditions in general have been very
favorable all around for the work at
hand.
