that there were SO many of them, and

MI. NJ. Winsberg, the well
known clothier OF this city, be-
lieves that 0peIousas will grow
and prosper as years roll on,
and for that reason he purchased
from Mrs. Clara Cooke, the old
building on Landry Street, be-
tween his up-Go-date and modern
furniture store and the St. Lam
dry Stale Eank, formerly occu-
pied ay llr, Albert Clary. The
purchase price was So, 400.
The building itself is not worth
very much, but MIR. Winsberg is
euntldeE.t that Cpelousas will In
crease, not only in population,
but also in wealth, within the
next teW years, and as the city
pfospels, his property will in
crease N value.
Mr. Winsberg has not decided
whether he WlA remodel the
building by lowering the floor

front, OF enlarge his store by
erecting a brick building. Ii he
femodels the building he will
nave it for rent, and there is no
doubt that he will not have any

SPENDS FEW DAYS
IN NEW ORLEANS.

For the first time in many,
many years the Catholic Church
in this city has been devoid OF a

time since the people in this city,
missed the usual placid face of
the good priest, who presides
over the st. Landry Catholic
parish.
Father John Engberink, the
beloved pastor Of the St. Landry
Catholic Church, returned early
this morning from New Orleans.
where he had gone on Monday
night; his object in going to the
Crescent City was to make his
annual retreat. Being the
only priest in his parish, when
he left, Opelousas did not have
It's daily mass, nor did it have a
pastor.
Happily, though, there were
no illness reported for which the
priest would be called. IF any
one would have had to secure

would have had to come to Ope-

LOCAL BOYS STILL
REMAIN UNDEFEATED
OpelOusas Team Adds Two
More To Its Long List Of
Victories.

Who said that Opelousas did
not have a good team? Whoever
has the audacity enough to make
such a statement should spend
twenty-five cents some Sunday
afternoon and take a trip to
Comeau's park and witness the
local boys in their uniforms.
Opelousas now rightfully claims
the amateur championship Of the
state; whichever team disputes
this claim only has to come down
here and try to wrestle from
Opelousas the tight grip which it
now has on the championship.
Opelousas played two games
during the week; the first in
Alexandria on last Friday, which
game the local team won by the
easy score of Z to 1. The second
game was staged in this city and
the Lake Charles team, came
here desirous to vanquish the
local warriors, but to no avail.
0pelousas was once more VIC
torious, this time by the rum
away score of 9 to 5. Still Lake
Charles and Alexandria teams,
claimed to be strong teams and
probable yictors over Op1iousas,
but there was nothing much to
them and the home hoys had
very little difficulty to win both
games.
Opelousas has the enviabIe
reputation Of having won four
teen straight games and tying
one. With percentage of 1000
the local fans are hoping that
Opelousas will continue its good
work and end up the season as [
the strongest amateur team in I
louisiana.
Both the Alexandria and the
Lake Charles games were loosely
played games, Opelousas having
a cinch from the very start.
Tom Casey pitched the Alexan-
dria games, whilst Terry
took care Of the mound on last
Sunday; though a little wild, due
to the fact that he had
not pitched in several weeks, he
pitched masterly ball. +

kROTZ SPRING LAND
CASE NOW SETTLED
Dunlap, of Plaquen1ine, Wins Legal Battle and
Promptly Pays $4,000 Cash For Big
Timber Tract.

One of the largest cash timber
deals in the history of this par
lsh was settled on last Saturday,
when James E. Dunlap, wealthy
Plaquemine capitalist, deposited
IN the registry of the Court
something over S42, 0W as a bal
anee of the price of tract of
over Is, 1000 acres Of timber land
situated along the AtchafaIaya
in this parish, at Krotz Springs,
adJudicated to him at Sheriff S
sale ever three years ago.
Mr.. Dunlap bid the property
in for $50, 900 in January, 1910,
and on a demand being made for
spot cash at the Whitmer VS..
krotz foreclosure sale in this
city he was not given a deed to
the property. The seizing cred
itor demanded 5000 in cash,
and Dunlap rendered a New
Orleans exchange for that
amount, which was refused, and
the Sheriff then re-soId the prop
erty to the selling creditor, Rob
ert F. Whitmer, a Philadelphia
millionaire, for s45, 600. Dunlap
Immediately went to New Or
leans and sent 500, coo in cur
'ency to his agent here, which
was rendered to the Sheriff on
Tuesday after the sale and was
refused. Tie money had been
sent to the city in five and ten
