New York. August 12.-Roger Bres-
nahan, manager of the St. Louis Ma
tional League club. had left the city at
TIE time OF the arrival of the Chicago
dispatch in which Charles w. Murphy,
president OF the Chicago club, was
quoted in criticism OF Bresnahan's re-
ported interest in world tour OF
the New York Giants and all-American
league stars. Bresnahan's connection
with the plan is said to be only In the
way of a prospective manager of the
ll-American team.
In baseball circles Mr.. Murphy's
declaration that the New York team
would not win the National League
pennant without undue assistance
from other teams" was read with sur
prise. 1t was pointed out that Bres-
nahan's club had been playing the
fastest kind OF ball against the
Giants. having won I'VE out of the
seven recent games between the two
clubs.

In another column of this issue we
are reprinting q most excellent article
that appeared in last weeks issue of
The Elton Progress. The Editor of
the Progress takes the only rational
view of the parish seat situation,
namely, that the parish seat should be
located ip the center Of the parish.
And that the location Of 1t at Jen aings
will make that town q stronger COM
petitor OF Elton in all commercial
matters and Will be q detriment to her
future prosperity. This same thing is
true OF Lake Arthur also. If the par.
ish seat should be located at Jennings
more and more OF Lake Arthur trade
would be drawn from that progressive
little city until eventually her prosper.
ity would fade ard she would become
as wilted flower. The location of the
parish seat at Welsh would not
materially interfere with the trade of
either of these places, as there is little
or no competition between their mer.
chants aud ours. Self preservation, II
no other reason should induce both
Elton and Lake Arthur to support
Welsh, rather than Jennings for the
parish seat. Before we close let US
urge you to read the Elton article en-.
titled Support Your Own Town aud
Home,' it Is GOOD.

Jennings has found another bug
under ID chip and is doing 1t large
amount Of cackling about it. They
have discovered should the parish
seat be located at Welsh, THAT public
pride and the demands of the people
would necessitate the building Of steel
bridges in lieu of the wooden ones that
now cross the BAYOU" An why NAV
we ask, should public opinion demand
steel bridges leading into Welsh any
more than the same public pride
would demand that q steel bridge
be erected across the bridged
portion OF the Grand Maras on the
road leading into JenniagS2 And again
if the time should come when the pub
lie pride should demand that steel
bridges be erected across the bayou,
since these bridges, are within the
corporate limits of the town of Welsh,
and the new bridges would be built by
the,town of Welsh just as the ones we
nave now were. wherein does it con.
Germ Jendings, any more than the
$50, 100000 indebtedness which a promi-
nent Jennings attorney confessed
Jennings owes, concerns Welsh, or
the rest of the parish. If the town of
Welsh needs steel bridges she will
build them and pay for them. so our
Jennings friends need take no worry
about the matter at all.

BUILDING A CULvERT
Large Number of Suitable Nate
rails on Market.
Concrete Is Most Satisfactory, ItS
Value Depending Greatly Upon
Thoroughness Of Mixing and
PIaclna-TabIe Of Cost.

There are any number Of suitable
CUlvert materials on the market, some
Of which are probably in reach Of ev-
cry road district. Concrete, cast iron,
vitrifed clay, corrugated iron or even
brick masonry, r suitable for this
work. The particular material most
economical for any community de-
ponds, Of course, upon local conditions.
Very few localities are without good
concrete material, and concrete is
really the most satisfactory culvert
material used. Its value depends upon
the thoroughness of mixing and plac-
ing. providing reasonably good mate
rails are used. Concrete culverts may
be made circular. Often the pipe Is
made In a shop and hauled to the site.
More frequently the culvert Is made
in place, using some kind Of collaps-
ible form. The following table shows
the proper thickness for circular con-
crete culverts, made in place:
