Mrs. Anna Grant Miller IS Ell
gagged to sing at the Opera House
this coming week. The lovers of
music will have the opportunity Of
approaching the merit Of home
talent and our people will doubt
less see that the house is filled
every evening throughout the
week. There is charm and
sweetness in the voice of Mrs.
Miller, which may be classed as a
rich gift Of nature, in as much az
1t is not given to many, neither
may cultivation Or training devel-
OPP il. The people Of the city are

A new FACTORY
FOR THIS CITY.


A stock company has been or
ganized here under the title of the
Broussard Casket and Manufac.
turing Co., Ltd, which will en-
gage in the manufacture of burial
caskets in all grades. Mr.. J. H.
Kiblinger will be the active head
and manager of the concern. He
has already placed the order for
the necessary machinery and mo.
tive power, which will be installed,
upon its arrival, in the undertak-
ing establishment on Julia street.
A charter has been drawn up
and executed, which authorizes
the company to engage in the
manufacturing business along
other lines than casket making.
1t has been suggested that with
the development of the aims Of
the Truck Growers Assn, there
will be large demand for pack
ing cases and crates. This will
be one possible field for the new
company in addition to its prime
purpose.
1t is gratifying to Us to chroni-
Gle the advent of new industries
and we hope the success of this
venture will be abundant.
