THE NEW ADDITION.

: Our citizens should feel yer.
! much indebted to the Teche Lane
! %. for coming amongst us an,
. Opening up their property (Jeffer
son Addition) and the manner In
, which they are doing it. Ou1
!. Reporter has just had the pleas
ure of visiting the beautiful To-
cality in company with Mr.. G. P
Lane under whose direction the
work Of sub-dividing the property
and improving it has been carried
on and it certainly reflects credit
to our City, and means a great
deal for the future growth of New
Iberia.
| Previous to their coming, our
City had never had such a real
high class subdivision sub-divided
in such standard Irregularities, with
wide streets, wide sidewalks. and
their entire tract is sub-divided
with the same Irregularities. Mr..
. G. P. Lane, who has had the en-
tire work in charge, has had con-
siderable experience in the town
site business. having spent many
years in Texas and put many
Western towns on the map. Start
ed them off to growing and they
are still on the go.
Mr.. Lane says, that New Iberia's
future is as good if not better
than any town he has ever had
the pleasure Of adding a new ad-
'dition to.
He says, he never saw a town
so well located as New Iberia. 1t
is in the heart of the richest and
most productive territory in the
world, hence it has everything in
its favor for making a town in
a few wears Of several times its
present size.
He says that since his company
(Teche Land Co.. came into this
section and purchased the present
tract now knoyn. and will hereaf-
ter be known as the jefferson
Addition and jefferson Terrace.
and started their improvements.
real estate values have advanced
considerable and they are going to
continue to do so, as they never
fail when he gets to work in =
town.
Mr.. Lane has certainly made a
very attractive and valuable addi-
ton to our City with his push and
energy, and experienced knowl- !,
edge of handling and improving
suburban property. He deserves .
success and every citizen, to a ;.
nan. should help him push the
'ale of his property through to a
'uccessful end as it is beyond :
loubt great credit to New Ibe- !,
ia, and we should all interest our i
'elves, each individually, and
'ocst for Jefferson Terrace lots
md help Mr.. Lane to get up a Sc
ect bunch of New Iberians and !,
ocate them in this splendid To-
atty with his plans carried out

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.

Last 1HuISudy ABOUT mlu-Oay
an unfortunate accident happened
which instantly killed Mrs. ELIAS
a Syrian woman well known II
New Iberia as dry goods peddler
The cause Of the accident was the
crossing Ola clothes wine which
came in contact with the elec trio
light wires of the Power plant ran
from the store Of her husband
across the yard to the residence,
the two buildings being within SO
feet of each other. Mrs. Elias
was in the act Of hanging out on
the clothes lire lot Of washing
which had been her custom for
many months, the line being free
of day service, consequently she
had never realized the danger.
just at the instant the unfortu-
nate woman placed her hands on
the line the current was turned
on, killing her Instantly. The
woman leaves a husband and
several children to MOURN her
loss from the sad accident. They
nave the sympathy of the commun-
ity. The funeral services were
held at st. Peters Catholic
church on Friday at IL 80 o clock.
Since writing the above, we in
terviewed Coroner j. w. X. Shaw,
who was called to the scene.a few
minutes after the death Of the
woman to make an investigation
IS to the cause Of her death. DR.
Shaw. after holding the inques.,
gave it as his opinion that she died
Of heart failure, the fact Of her
being in the act Of hanging
clothes on the line does not justi-
" the impression that electricity
caused her death. He made care
full test Of the wires and found
them absolutely free Of electricity,
taking both in his hands while the
lights were still on without re- /
ceiving any shock whatsoever.
Had the woman been electrocuted
she would have become perfectly !.
stiff, whereas she was limp and /
showed no symptoms Of being t
burned whatever. Had not the
unfortunate woman been under !,
the wire when she dropped dead
tn impression that she was elec-
trocuted would never have been
formed as was the case and in |.
spite Of q scientific Investigation.
many viii still cling to the origi-
nal idea that she was burned to
leath.

dent in the Dakotan's action should not
appear and file his answer, within four
teen days thereafter, the petition shall
be taken for confessed and the matter
may be decreed accordingly unless good
cause shall appear to the contrary. The
claim made by the lawyers for the re-
cluse has been that ever if his long lost
brother is discovered, William is not
compelled by the working of the will to
share the estate unless he wants to.
The lawyers believe that the Dakotan is
fighting to have this decided.
In the petition filed last July. papers
in which were served on William c.
Russell. Dakota Dan declares himself
the missing heir; that William refuses
to share the estate and asks that his
identity be established that the will be
construed and that the court order dis
tribution of the estate.
Cambridge, Mass, March 25.-Counsel
for William c. Russell of Melrose filed
in Middlesex county court today, an
appearance and answer 10 a motion
''proconfesso, which was fled yester-
day by the attorney of the Dickinson.
N. D., claimant, Dakota Dan.s"' to
one-half the share of the $500. 600 estate
of the late Daniel Russell of Melrose.
The final paragraph Of the answer of
William C. Russell to the motion PRO
confesso" indicates for the first time
the contention of William C. Russell.
that even if claimant should prove to be
the son of the late Daniel Russell, he is
not entitled under the will to receive
any portion of the estate. .s.se =.
This looks as if William C. begins to
fear that Dakota Dan" will prove to
be Daniel Blake Russell and he is now
devoting his attention to devisina means
to keep all his father property.

MARCH WEATHER

Weather conditions for March have not
been the best and yet at the close of the
month they are not particularly un-
favorable. On Friday at 9 a. M, the
last day of March. there was IL inches
of snow on the ground with a precipita-
ton of ri inches of moisture for the
week and AZ inches for the month. The
precipitation for March in 1910 vas .82
inches and for a term of years the aver
age is 1 inch.
The mean temperature for March for
1911 was 34.1 degrees for 1910, Al de-
erees; average for a period of years,
23.5 degrees. Thus it will be noted
that the month just closed is a little
above the average and quite a little
cooler than last year. The ground is
moistened with the snow and rain of
the past week and should leave grain
fields in fair condition for The germina-
ton of seed.
Considerable grain has already been
sown at the Dickinson experiment sta
ton and the superintendent looks upon
conditions as favorable up to this time.
In many parts of the country quite a
little wheat seeding has already been
done, but there are other localities where
the farmers have not begun work on the
land. The conditions should be right fol
working the soil in all localities BY the
first of next week.

RUSSELL WILL CASE
BEFORE PUBLIC AGAIN

Boston, March 24.-The s%lumbering
fortune fight of Daniel Blake Russell of
Dickinson, North Dakota which held the
attention of the world a year ago took
a new turn today when the Dakotan's
Boston counsel Nelson Sheldon. asked
the probate court to rule on the I'M
answered petition entered by the Dakota
claimant about July. Sheldon asks that
the claimants bill be taken as confessed
and that a decree be entered there in
favor of the claimant.
Villain C.. Russell, the recluse. it
appears, has never answered the claim
ants petition of last July.
The new developments have led to
much speculation as to whether the
tentative agreement of settlement, said
to have been made between Senator
Leslie A. Simpson of Dickinson. N. D..
and the William c. Russell, lawyers has
been called off. 1t was currently be-
lieved hire that the agreement for settle
ment had been accomplished and that
full recognition and cash settlement
awaited only the outlawing of certain
criminal charges that might .ensue from
the sensational developments in the first
trial.
Today's action caused a genuine stir
in the camp of the estate. with the re-
suit that William C. Russell. came again
from ~seclusion and with his many attor-
neys was present in court.
The default, as the lawyers call it,
creates a unique situation. According
to the probate rules, unless the respon-
