Treatment for rScours

Good success was attained at the

calves affected with scours by adding
formalin to the milk at the rate of

DRY SWEEPING OF FERRIES TO
BE BARRED.

DR.. VIM. T. O'Riley, the head of the
City Board of Health, will no doubt
find much support in his new ordi-
nance in opposition to dry sweeping,
and We on this side of the river are
especially interested in this ordinance
for the fact that we believe it will
have some effect in preventing the
continual dry sweeping of the ferries
which operate in the Canal street
trade. 1t seems to be the delight of
the poorly-clad negroes on the boats to
sweep the dust off the decks Just
about the time most of the young la
dies are on their way to work in the
morning. Many times The Herald
has called attention to this dry sweep
ing nuisance, practiced especially on
the boats of the Canal street ferry,
where thousands of people cross daily.
We trust that the new ordinance will
have special reference to the public
transportation companies, where this
nuisance becomes a real danger.

REAL TWo-LEGGED RAT.

One OF the most curious freaks of
nature was captured a few nights ago
by Philip Haag, at his grocery store in
Pacific and Homer streets. For a few
nights Mr.. Haag noticed large rat in
his place, which walked quite differ
emily from the ordinary rat and after
paying special attention to the freak
1t was noticed that the rat had no fore
legs and that it walked erect just like
a person. Several attempts we're
made to catch it and they were sue
cessful Friday night when the little
rodent was captured and trapped. It
was brought to The Herald office for
examination. There was no evidence
at all on the front part of the body
where there had ever been any legs.
Another peculiar feature of the rat
was that there was hole in it's neck
about the extent of the width of half
dollar. This opening was not wound
rs 1t was perfectly healed and con-
tanned fur on the inside as we'll as the
outside. The rat was kept for several
days and was shown to many people in
that vicinity.

A negro named Charles Joyce, who
was engaged to do carpenter work
around the house of Mrs. Adam Tros-
clair. No. 16S Pelican avenue, on Satur-
day, was suspected of the theft of a
set of false teeth valued at 500, which
were on a washstand when the negro
was served with cup of coffee in the
kitchen. The teeth were later found
by Mrs. Trosclair and the negro was
released.
Mrs. S. NJ. Harper, of S34 Elmira
street, left her notion store in the
front of her home alone for a few min.
utes Saturday evening while she at
tended little work in the rear. When
she departed there were five new
shirts on the counter valued at $3.50.
An unsuspecting negro entered the
store and became fascinated with the
apparel. Seeing no one about he de-
parted, and the shirts followed.

FRANCOIS A. DANIELS,
Honored AIsiers octosenarian, Called
to His Reward.

Francois A. Daniels, one of the old
est residents of Algiers, died Saturday
night at the family residence, PAL Oil
vier street. He was born in Paris,
France. 81 years IL months ago, but
had resided here for seventy years.
Mr.. Daniels had been ailing for the
past five weeks, but it was not thought
seriously, consequently his death was
a great shock to the community.
Mr.. Daniels is survived by three
sons, Frank A. Daniels, who has been
a prominent figure in steamship and
business circles for many years; A. S.
Daniels, an established iron worker
and blacksmith in Algiers, and Joseph
Daniels, who is superintendent of the
Alg'ers branch postoffie. Mrs. Daniels,
who was Miss Mary Leddy, also
mourns his loss.
Mr.. Daniels has been identified with
all the movements for the advance of
Algiers, and he was never found want
ing. His career has been long and
honorable one, and his death will be
regretted by his large circle of friends.
The funeral was held at 3 o'clock
Sunday afternoon. Services were con.
Quoted by Rev. ]. NJ. Henry and Rev.
R. NJ. Brown of the Methodist church,
of which he had been a constant fol-
lower for many years. The interment
was in Greenwood cemetery.
The remains were followed by proba-
bly, the largest concourse of friends
ever seen in Algiers and the many
beautiful floral designs gave mute evil
dence of the love and esteem in which
the honored and sanity patriarch was
held.
The pallbearers were Hon. E. T.
Leche, Hon. Frank Henning, Victor ].
Boto, Andreas P. Abascal, Albion
Daniels and Edward H. Daniels.
In the passing away of Mr.. Daniels
the citizens Of Algiers feel that they
nave SUFFERED distinct loss and the
church., of which he was charter
member. will find it difficult to fill his
place.
A few years ago Mr.. Daniels, with
his estimable wife, celebrated their
golden wedding, and friends from far
and near came to the home in Algiers
to do honor to the man who had come
to them in their hours of distress and
who had prayed for them in the quiet
Of their homes. The influence of his
pious life will live in the hearts of all
with whom he came in contact; being
dead he yet speaketh," and his good
works will follow him.

SITE PURCHASED
JOHNSON IRON WORKS ACQUIRE
OLD SITE OF SOUTHERN MA.
RINE WORKS 900
SAID TO HAVE
BEEN PAID.

| Our citizens here were all astir a
few days ago after they read quite a
long article in one of our morning pa
| pers, wherein the Johnson Iron Works
had purchased a site on this side OF
the river to locate their entire plant
and upon investigation it was found
that the Johnson Iron Works had &C,
quired site, and it has not been def.
nitely decided when they would move
their plant here.
The sale was made by Ramsey &
Danziger and the price is said to have
been $4,000
Just as soon as the rumored report
was given sufficient credit, President
Lennox of the Improvement Associa.
ton called a special meeting at which
committee was appointed to wait on
the Johnson Iron Works to assure
them of the moral support of our citi.
zens in general should they desire to
purchase property in our district.
Now that this subject has again been
brought to the minds of our citizens.
they will readily recall the several
fights of the Southern Marine Works
and Dominick Frolicher, who runs a
harness shop adjoining the old South.
ern Marine Works. Mr.. Frolicher
brought suit against the Southern Ma
rine Works, stating that the place was
a nuisance and was given judgment in
one of the courts. A short time after
this decision the Southern Marine
Works became thing of the past and
many skilled mechanics who were CIV
en- employment there, were compelled
to seek positions elsewhere. 1t is un-
derstood that Louis Coleman, who
owns about ten lots of ground and the
Datture in the square in which is To-
Gated the old Southern Marine Works,
has offered his property at less price
than 1t originally cost him. We get
this information from very good au.
thority and after an investigation into
the matter.
We are also informed, by very good
authority, that the Johnson Iron Works
have not purchased option on the Kop-
pei property on Patterson street. nor
have they closed any deal whatsoever
in real estate, except for the Southern
Marine Works plant.
When the big works are moved to
this side of the river it will give
steady employment to many skilled
mechanics and laborers and will add
materially to the weekly pay roll of
our district.

appointed to wait on Johnson Iron
Works to offer moral support and good

FERRY FRANCHISE

During the past week there was a
conference held at the City Hall with
Mayor Behrman, the council commits.
sion, the city attorney, the city engi
neer, and Otto T. Maier and c. d. War.
rem, of the Grand Isle r. r. Co, look.
ing to the advertisement and sale of
the Third District ferry franchise.
1t has been made known that the
Grand Isle people would be prospect
i've bidders for this franchise on Ger.
tain conditions and it was at this con-
ference that some of these conditions
were spoken of. 1t is understood that
they would like to have the franchise
read for twenty-five years instead of
fifteen years, and that instead of the
present price for the franchise to be
paid to the city of New Orleans in a
lump sum, that it would be sold on a
percentage of the annual gross re-
ceipts.
1t was also suggested that the fran
chise contain clauses calling for dou-
ble-end boats, wherein passengers
would go from the ferry houses d.
rectly to the upper deck of the boat.
The franchise will also necessarily
carry with it a complete reconstruction
of the pontoons and approaches on
either side of the river and in order
that a better grade may be had for
the vehicles that additional space be
asked for from the dock board in or
der that this improvement might be
brought about.
The matter has been left in the
hands of the city engineer and the
city attorney to draw up new specifi-
cations and before they are brought
up for action they will no doubt be
submitted to the Algiers people for
suggestion for the betterment of the
service.
1t will be with much interest that
this new franchise will be read. espe-
cldlly SO since our people are anxious
to give a helping hand to the Grand
Isle people who have many times
shown that they are willing to let go
OF their money in improvements here.
The statement of Mr.. Warren, made
at the st. Charles Hotel a few months
ago, that the company stands ready
to spend s1O,OOO,OOO in improvements.
is still fresh in the minds of those who
believe in the integrity of our new
Canadian corners. We wish them ev.
cry success and that they will get the
moral support of the citizens here
goes without saying. The company it.
self stands for improvement and
knows that the batterment of the SER
vice from what it is at present will
cause an increase in trade, and it is
on this principle that the new company
VIII become a bidder for this fran
chise.
