.SAIzAN RIDES THE GOAT
And IS FEASTFD By ELKs
Sixty-Sfx Antlers Participate in
SumptuOus Banquet BY Ope-
IOusas Lodge Of Best
People On Earth. Z

It is said of the festive goat
that his digestive organs don t
fstall'' even at tie consumption
Of tin cans and railroad iron, and
that his royal bump also lays in
the shade Of unworthiness the
rose tinted appetizer from Ia
belle France as an appetite
fletcher.
Billy's renoWn was IN no wise
dimlned by his performance at
the lodge room of Opelousas
Lodge No. Sc, B. P. O. E., last
Tuesday night.
DR.. ]. p. Saizan furnished the
cushion for the bump, and the
Elks furnished q swell banquet
to satiate the appetite which fol-
lowed in the train.
The Elks are always bully en-
tertainers, but none of their en-
tertainments IN the past could
hold a candle to this one.
The initiation of DR.. Saizan
took place in the early evening,
and the repast was served at ten
o'clock. Sheriff Marion Swords
was POSTMASTER, and many
toasts were drank to the gallant
little President of the Uuion
Bank & Trust Company.
Sixty-six guests, including
ladies, lined up at the groaning
board, and everything good to
eat and drink were served.
Here's to the new Bill and the

plans win be adopted and the
wheels set in motion. The COM

from the different wards of the
parish, and they are urged to
hearken to Mr.. LaWler's call
when it is made.
Mr.. Lawler and Secretary
Thos. p. Bowden are chuck full
Of enthusiasm over the fair, and
fits a failure the fault will not

The Fair is to be held in 0pe-
Iousas, and it is proposed tomake
it a real big thing the biggest
ever. The fairsson a small scale
held here in the past have proven
Of great benefit to agricultural
interests, and it is figured out
that a larger fair viii leave its.
beneficial effects in proportion.
But its success depends on the
hearty cooperation of both BUSH
ness men and farmers. One
without the other will signalize
d failure. In this, like in all
things, they must touch elbows.
The farmer and the business
man are linked together by a
common cord, and neither can
travel alone.
The Clarion wishes to correct
an error made IN an article ON
this subject two weeks ago, when
Il stated that Mr.. Thos. P. Bow

TRAGIC DEATH OF one
OF RELOUSAS
YOUNG men.

This community was shocked
and saddened last week by the
untimely and terrible death of
Matt Galloway. Matt would
have been II years old If he had
lived to see the 18th day Of
March next.
Matt was a good boy, hard
working and honest. We knew
him well and liked him for his
sterling and manly qualities.
He was not a street corner boy,
wasting his time and opportu-
mites, but was always at work
at something, contributing his
share towards the support Of a
large family.
70 the bereaved father and
mother we would say that when
God s ways are unsuitable to US,
we must bow to His viii and
with one of old say: Though
He sIay me yet viii / trust Him. =
This requires faith and subrnis-
sion, but it is all we can do, and
may God comfort and streng then
you both in the great sorrow
which His divine grace alone can
enable you to bear and which time
alone can heal.
For the information of those
who do not know, we would
state that poor Matt got burnt
TO death by q gasoline explosion
while working On his uncle's
construction train On the South

This expression Of sympathy
and coincidence IS prompted by q
knowledge Of the boy and our
heartfelt sorrow for his be

Fourteen Missouri and Kansas
farmers arrived in 0pelousas via
the Frisco yesterday evening.
They have come to look into the
famed possibilities of ST. Landry
parish. They are IN quest
principally Of small farms the
kind OF farmers we want.
In charge Of Mr.. j. B. Ladd,
Of the Kansas City Investment
CO., the party came here for
business, and will to-day and
Monday make a personal inspec-
tion of various land propositions s
in this neigh borh0od.

tlennen half what We had here to
i h II interested parties. We
want them to come here and see

motto: Come and see. 3
Mr.. Ladd was here d few
weeks ago, remaining here sew
eral days, and satisf ying him
self that there was much here to
interest home seekers, especially
of the class which have come
with him on this trip seekers
for small farms
Last night the party was en-
tertained at The Lacombe BY.
Messrs. Littell & LaWler, the
heads of the different banks Of
Opelousas, and local newspaper
men. Stories Of the possibilities.
of this country were told by.
local speakers, stories which will
be corroborated stronger than by
words by the personal investiga-
ton of the strangers themselves.
The visitors expressed them
selves as greatly impressed with
their first glimpse of the garden
spot of the South, and it is more
than probable that several Of the
gentlemen composing the party
will become permanent st. Lam
drians.
Our peop lie should be inn
with the fact that home
seekers of this character desire
TO deal with the real estate man
entirely, and that it is never adj
vantageous to either the land
seller or the buyer for parties TO-
be butttng in trying to sell
