JOHN M. PARKER HERE.

Mr.. John NJ Parker of New Or
leans is here friday with a view
to looking into the banking situation.
He represents others in New Orleans
interested in doing what they can
for West Feliciana He spent the
greater part of the day at the bank
and the court house. He has great
faith in the natural resources, hence
the future of West Feliciana. This
is evidenced by the fact that he has
recently purchased a plantation here
for $4,000, which his son will con-
vert into stock farm. They will
handle Black Poll cattle, which Mr..
Parker has already in course Of ac-
climatization. John M. Jr. is farm
er by choice, and will be a citizen to
be propd of. Three years from now,
Mr.. Parker says that he expects the
farm to be model one, and credit
to the parish.
Mr.. Parker's opinion is that West
Feliciana must have a bank, and that
such a bank could handle the pres.
ent institutions notes and liquidate
them with less hardship to the peo-
pie than more rapid clearing would
involve.

A LINEN SHOWER.

The home OF Mr.. and Mrs. Jay

was the scene of one of the dainti
est linen showers ever given in the
vicinity of Jackson. Mesdames Viii.
lis Daniel and Walter Maryman and

plete surprise to the bride-to.be, Miss

Daniel of West Feliciana.
A large number of friends from
Jackson, Star Hill, and various other
points in West Feliciana assembled
to enjoy the occasion and contribute
their gifts of dainty linen to the bridal
store. These were arranged and
suspended from parasoI covered
with pink crepe paper, and this was
held above the head of Miss Wads-
worth while the gifts were showered
into her lap.
Delightful music was rendered by
Misses Mattingly and Alexander and
Daniel, and Mrs. Austin Daniel and
her niece, Miss Barlow Butts, of
Texas. For the further pleasure of
the occasion, a French song was
sung by Mrs. ]. M. Daniel Mes
danes Daniel and Maryman served
cakes and cream to their guests af-
ter the program was rendered. Miss
Irene has made warm friends all
over the Felicianas, and their inter-
est in this occasion was evidenced

Of linen which we're displayed.

TWO USEFUL MEASURES.

Has it ever occurred to you to learn
the exact width of your span? If
not, do so at once; you will find it
most convenient Also learn the
length of your middle finger. Hardly
a day passes without having to meas
ure tentatively some object in the
home or elsewhere-an old table to
see il 1t will fit in the corner of the
kitchen, an old desk to see if it will
be the right height to stand under the
hanging shelves. The possession of
two ever-ready and surprisingly ex.
act measures is most useful.

 There were other short talks, the principal theme of which was invari- ably plea for an orderly conduct of the affairs of the strikers throughout the present .WaIkout. The carmen re iterated that they will not counten- ance any disorder or damage to prop erty and that they will work hand in hand with the authorities in sup pressing any that may arise from whatever source.
 A collection was taken at the con- clusion of the meeting amounting to $4644 which will be devoted to the aid of the carmen during the strike. Other contributions have been re ceiVed which will make the fund at present not far from $1O0.
 While the meeting was in progress report was received that q party of strikebreakers was arriving on the 4:45 o'clock train from Los Angeles and most of those assembled in the city hall plaza went down to the Arizona depot to see what they looked like But there were no strikebreak- CTS aboard, nor were there any to be taken off the train at Eastlake park and hurried to the barns under cover

At that time the revolutionists were particu- Iarly active in northern Sonora and it was rumorcd among them that the fed erals were intending to run a train load of guns and ammunition through to Cananea. So when this strage look ig craft approached a siding several miles south of NaCO things began to happen. Conductor Harter and the motOrman first noticed that the switch was thrown to the side track and that the side track was blocked with ties. Then they thought they saw ricade-theY were right. From behind the ties rose a detachment of insur- rectos, who with many "ViVas" and other appropriate battle cries opened fire on the land going cruiser
 The motOrman took his stand behind the engine laying flat on the floor and Harter likewise behind a gasoline tank The attack continued for some time.

 Today Manager Mitchell will again endeavor to operate cars. He has asked for police protection and will probably be more insistent that the cars move than he was yesterday or Saturday night. Of course, in view of the fact that he had not received the communication from the owners of the road in Los Angeles, he was un- able to say just what might be the developments of today. It is more tnaI likely that sometime today. in the event the expected letter is re- CeiVed. he will meet with the eX- ecutive committee of the carmen's union and reveal to them just what he is able to do under the present circumstances.
 Incidentally he is advertising this morning for men to operate his cars. He said yesterday that he had nc ill feeling towards the men who had gone out and that if they desired to come back to their places under such terms as he was enabled to of fer. their places were still open to them.
 The Hart theater mana cement an nounced following the meeting yester- day that a portion of its receipts for the ensuing three nights would be contributed to the fund for the aid of the striking carmen.
