G. P. O., winners of the Government
League, defeated Southern, of the Rail-
IL to 4, having little difficulty during the
game in getting their many runs.
Southern, with Young in the box at the
start, proved easy for the printers.
Ihe helding stunts of the game were
furnished by Stockman and Melvin. The
fact that Southern was able to get but
three hits off Staub showed how we'll

Cornell Company and Ninth. leaders
in Sections A and B. are teday prac-
tically assured of their positions for
the intersectional games, having won
every post-season game in which they
started. Both teams have showed
something more than their rivals. and
have won their games in a clean-cut
manner.
With three straight victories over
the other teams in the first section,
Cornell Company looks to be an easy
winner, and has been predicted as the
post-season series winner. Ninth, by
two easy victories over the Printers and
Nativity, Is easily the winner of the
Section B series, and will wait for the
finals.
But one contest has been decided in
the Section C games. G. P. o. easily de-
feating Southern, which in turn was
tied by Park in the first start of the
post-season series games in that section.

Section A-Cornell VS.. Bankers.
Followers of the Bankers nine say
today that had yesterdays contest goN'
full nine innings the result would have
been in their favor instead Of the to
score which went Cornelrsa way. The
Bankers failed odo much for seven In
nings but loosed up IN the first half Of
across the plate. The score reverted
back to the seventh inning.
For three innings yesterday the Bank
ers-Cornell game was nip and tuck,
a perfect defense an air tight pitching
Cornell broke the ice in the fourth in
ming, scoring run. Chris Feinle blew
up in, the fifth inning and Cornell
added in the sixth:
The Bankers only tally that counted
came in the tifth inning. In the frst
half of the eighth the Bankers scored
four runs. Darkness was drawing oil
and Hughes called the contest with tive
down, the game reverting back to the
seventh inning
For the Cornell Company team, Cy
Macdonald again starred. The first
sscker started the trouble for the Bank
ers with a single and later scored a
run on another hit. Macdonald has
been hitting far and away the best OF
the other players and showing up well
on the bases.

Rain fell throughout the greater part
of the day on Sunday, but the re-
mainder of the week has been clear
and dry, and the indications at this
writing. point to a continuance of
these desirable conditions for an
indefinite period. In addition to be-
ing rainless, the days have become

ty of weather calculated to do the
most good to the cane In it's present
state, great expectations are enter
stained of a substantial improvement
in the crop within the near future.
are much smaller than the average
size for this season of the year, and
very few places in this vicinity can
boast Of stalks showing red joints.
The crop has been laid by on some
plantations, while on others consld-
erable amount of cultivation is nee
essary before this process can be
completed.
Reports of damage to the corn by
worms and caterpilIars are received
from all sections Of the parish, and
the yield of this crop will be materi-
ally curtailed as a result of the raw
ages of these destructive pests.
The rice crops on both sides of
the river are in splendid condition,
and a large yield is anticipated. The
weather of the past several weeks
has been ideally suited to the re
quirements of this cereal, and under
the Influence of the frequent show
ers and warm sunshine the crop has
grown rapidly. Owing to the fall in
the river, rice planters in some 10
caiities have resorted to pumping
in order to irrigate their fields.

shown the inadeduaey Of the present
fleyees throughout the valley to af-s
ford tho people protection. The re-
sisting power. Of such Ievees as we
had, has, at the same time, demon
strated beyond a question the teas

Convincing Of the fact that all that
IS needed is a higher and wider 1e-
wee with adequate banquette where
necessary.
The waters from 81 states Of
this Union and a large part Of the

these levees, and the question OF
their construction and maintenance
has arisen to the heighth Of

throughout the United stassss are
interested as they never We're be

protecting this fertile territory.
There has been adopted in both

yocating the completion of the levee
system in business-like way, and
both of the great parties are abso:.

1t is left for the people to keep
this sentiment alive and actively be-

in Memphis, Tennessee, on septem-

FOURTH DISTRICT FARES WELL
Mississippi River Commission Makes
Allotment Of S., $50, GOO for Recon-
struction of Levees that Broke
During Recent Flood.

Returning home from ST. Louis,
where he went to attend a special
meeting Of the Mississippi River
Commission held for the purpose of
making allotments Of funds for the
reconstruction of leyees that gave
way during the recent flood, Captain
G. O. Sheriff., U. IS. A., in charge of
the government work in the fourth
district, brought back the glad It'd
1ngs that just as soon as President
Taft affixes his signature to the riy-
er appropriation bill, the fourth
district will receive 81, 100000. This
amount will be a portion of the APP
preparation of S6,000,00O made by
congress, of which S4,000,000 is to
be used for levee construction.
This action on the part of congress
IS looked upon as being a move to-
ward the government taking full con
troll of the Mississippi river, from
Lake Itaska to the passes.
The other three districts received
their share Of the appropriation, but
the fourth Jared the best of all
Captain Sheriff. has already adver-
tised for bids on eight contracts for
rebuilding levees which caved in dur
ing the flood. All told, the contracts
will call for approximately 100000 Gu
bic yards of earth.
The breaks to be repaired are as
follows: Two at Palmyra Island, in
the lower Tensas district; three in
the Angola levee; one at Bayou Sara;
one at Alto, on the Atchafalaya riv-
er, and a portion Of the Hyme1ia Gre
vase. That section of the Hyme1ia
Ievee through which the water cut a
deep channel will be built by the
government. The giant dredgeboat
Pascagoula, one Of the largest boats
Of the kind in the world, owned by
the government and at present sta
toned at Pascagoula, Miss, has been
loaned to Captain Sheriff. by Major
G. A. F. Flager, U. S. A., in charge
of the engineering corps at Mobile,
and will be used to reconstruct the
Hymelia levee. 1t is estimated the
big dredge will do the work in a
months time.
