On Monday morning before
day, entrance was effected by
some sneak thief into the dry
goods store of Mr.. Walter j.
Laperouse by prizing open a back
window Upon opening the store
Mr.. Laperouse discovered that
the iron bars had been pried open
and the window afterwards closed
by the miscreant. Evidently he
had entered the store with no
other object than to get some cash
as not a single piece of goods was
from the establishment.
New Iberia and vicinity was
visited last Monday night about
eight O'Clock with a good heavy
rain which done much good to
the crops and truck gardens that
were suffering for like of rain.
Several parts OF the Parish, par
ticularly the Third Ward has had
several showers which has ad-
vanced the crops materially, while
the Coteau section from what we
are informed is still badly in need
Of showers. As whole the crop
in Iberia have never
been better, the drouth notwith-
standing.
