Importing Eggs from Europe.

A few days ago the press dis
patches brought the interesting in
formation that 100000 eggs were
imported into New York from Europe
and sold on the market from 5 to 8
cents per dozen less than the Ameri-
can cold storage eggs, which are held
in r~efrigerators for the benefit of the
trust magnates of this country. It
appears that the noble band Of tariff
jugglers, under the leadership Of the
adroit Aldrich failed in some unac-
countable manner to increase the
duty on imported eggs and left it at
the old rate of 5 cents per dozen.
This oversight, neglect, or whatever
it may be, enabled the wicked and
unpatriotic commission merchants Of
New York to import eggs from for
eign countries and sell them at a fig
ure much cheaper than is paid for
the product of the native hen, says
the States.
1t is said that this is the first time
in the history Of the United States
that eggs have been imported for
use, and if the importations
continue there is every reason to ex-
pect a sudden drop in the price of
cold storage eggs. The eggs inn
by the New York commission
merchants came from different parts
Of Europe, but we're collected at and
shipped from Hull, England. They
we're we'll coated with parafiRe III
order to make them keep well during
voyage across the Atlantic, and
It is said that they were found when
hey reached New York to be much
'resher than the eggs taken out Of
cold storage plants in this
country. For some years dealers in
he boundary States have imported
from Canada, but this is the
irst instance where eggs have been
'rought from Europe and sold on the
American market.

and she caught me and told me not
to 60, for she was sure that some
body was in there and might kill me.
/ then asked, Who is that?' four or
five times, and also asked what was

noise and got no response. I then

that someone was coming through

I then forced the kitchen door

APPROVED SEPARATION
OF RED and ATCHAFA-
LAYA RIVERS FROM
MISSISSIPPI.

Our attention has been called to
Che fact that in reporting the pro
ceedings Of the mass meeting held in
the court house at Opelousas, on
Saturday, February 5th, for the pur-
pose Of obtaining and expressing the
sentiments of the people Of this and
n%eighboring parishes in regard to the
proposed damming of the Courtableau,
while We printed q copy Of the reso-
buttons protesting against the pro-
posed closing Of Bayou Courtableau,
We failed to secure from the secre-
tary and print q copy Of the resoIu-
tons also adopted at the same meet
ing, approving and advocating the
plan already agitated in some of the
other parishes affected, to divorce
The Red and Atchafalaya Rivers from
the Mississippi 50 as to reduce the
food areas in the basins Of the
former rivers. The resolution adopted
was as follows:
Resolved, That this mass meeting
is in hearty accord with the desires
Of the peoples of the Red and Atcha-
falaya River basins, that the rivers
Be divorced from the Mississippi
rger; and that, the Louisiana delega-
ton in the Congress Of the United
States be memorialized to use their
best efforts to secure speedy action
on the part of the United States
Government looking to the separa-
tion Of the Red and A~tchafalaya
Rivers from the Mississippi"
Upon motion Of Mr.. R. Lee Gar
land, duly seconded, that a committee
be appointed to confer with the peo-
pies Of the parishes to be affected by
che closing Of said Bayou, the chair
man appointed the following: r. Lee
Garland, Chairman; Jonas Bailey, ST.,
y B. Dubuisson, Homer Barousse and
N. 4. Swords.
The proposition is to divorce the
BED and AtchafaIaya Rivers from the
Mississippi by the closing Of Old
RiYer, thus making the two rivers
first named an independent waterway
free from the periodical thrush Of the
food waters of the Mississippi from
which they now suffer. 1t is claimed
by the supporters of this project that
The completion of this work would
rot only save considerable land in the
Red River basin from its present {

Mississippi is high, and the lower
