ject therein outlined. / have mailed
a similar clipping to Congressman
Pujo, that he may know what is go
ing on.
If the waters Of the Teche are
polluted whose fault is it? Certainly
not ours. The blame lies at the
hands Of the mill owners, and now
they have brought about this condi-
tion Of affairs, they seek to escape
therefrom by taking our fresh water
to do which they would dam our
bayou. | repeat, let our people be
ever on the alert to head off this
nefarious scheme.
Yours truly,
GILBERT L. DUPRE.
THE conference yesterday at the
State Board Of Health regarding the
pollution Of the Peche, as ID alleged,
by the discharge from sugar refneries,
was attended by several planters and
members Of the board. The result
was the appointment Of a working
committee to take up the further
investigation. This committee is
composed Of DR.. Hamilton, P. Jones,
Jules Godchaux, Colonel 1. H. Beach,
Colonel F. N. Kerr and DR.. S. D.
Porter. It is a very representative
committee, having two men from the
Board Of Health, one representing
the United States Government and
one representing this State.
The results Of the chemical an
~
alyses of the Teehe water were con-
sidered yesterday, as reported by the
chemist Of the board, George B. Tay-
lor, and the committee decided to
make further studies and to make
collections Of the water for about
ten months.
From the chemical analyses the
State board officials had no doubt
about the pollution Of the bayou BY
water from sugar-houses, and the
planters are to be requested to keep
all acid water and other washings
out Of the bayou, SO that the only
thing returned to it will be water
used in condensation purposes.

THE EVOLUTION OF JOE.

| vited him to speak in Newark. Joe is
always being invited to speak some
where and as speaking is Joe's long
suit, he accepted on the instant and
asked the committee about arrange
ments. The delegation told Joe that
stump speaking. 1t was to be a bung-
tung affair. With brass band and a
real dinner and all sorts of distin-
guished persons in attendance. Cau-
tiously and automatically the commit
tee requested Joe to put on his good
clothes and comb the cookie burrs out
of his hair before he came. Joe hesi-
tated, but he could not resist the chance
to tell the New Jersey men about the
tariff and the income tax and other
things, so he finally accepted all the
conditions, What happened after that
tevent was related in the Baltimore
fancy play about it here. not in any
desire to reflect upon the able Texan
but as part of the history of thu

HOW TO Stay SINGLE.

Now that he has Won all his patent

ever any one flies in one of his BIZ
planes, Wilbur Wright is taking life
easily He does not spend his
days hanging around lawyers offices,
hoping for the best and fearing the
worst; ard since he is secure In his in
vention he is not always tinkering at
his motor and swearing he will outny
Glenn Curtiss or break his neck in the
attempt He is talking to the report
ers whenever they come up, and he is
telling many things about himself they.
did not know.
1t develops that Wight IS single and
proposes to stay single. He is proud
of the fact but is perfectly frank in
explaining not only why he does not
marry, hut how he Is able to stay sin
gle. 1t would be hard on any woman,
he says, end hard on him. If woman
loved him she would not want him to
face the dangers of aviation. If she
AID not worry about the dangers OF
his air flights he would conclude
that she did not love him, and conse-
quently he could not love her.
There YOU are. 1t Is philosophy that
saves him single and could not save
him double, This is not all. however
Wright knows the weakness of the
flesh and the wiles of women, and con-
cludes that the best way to keep from
loving woman IS to love something
else 1T is just as easy not to get
married as it is TO run an aeroplane."
