SAUER KRAUT ON FREE LIST.
German Product Coming Plentifully
Under New Tariff Law.

Lovers Of sauer kraut will be glad to
know that in consequence of the old
German dish being placed on the tree
list BY the recent enacted tariff bill inn
ports Of the real German-made article
are coming into this country in CONSIDER
able quantities. In the past week. in
the cargo of one of the German liners
between Hamburg and Baltimore, were
fifty casks of kraut. all ready for the
fresh pork. goose or sausage trimmings.
which were landed at Baltimore
This is said to be the first importation
of kraut into this country. in any guam
THY, in several years. but now that there
Is no duty on ii large 1mportations are
looked for, not only at Baltimore. but at
Philadelphia New York and other ports
1t is stated that a number of the Ger
man American residents of this city who
have fondness for kraut, are arranging
to have some of the German home
made article shipped to this market. and
II il comes up to their recollections of
what IL was like in the fatherland. i. is
probable that Washington will be found
one of the large consumers of imported
kraut.

RAILROAD CASE APPEALED.
Illinois Central Would Enjoin Grade
Crossing at Memphis.

The fight of the Illinois Central railroad
to prevent the Union Railway Company,
operating in Memphis, Tenn. from build
ing at grade a short line across the for
mer's through line from Chicago to New
Orleans was yesterday transferred from
the federal courts in Tennessee to the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The Illinois Central asked the court to
review the lower courts action against it
on the ground that a crossing at grade
would interfere with its fast mail and
passenger service to and from the south.

you and cleans it madly in the hope of
having his palm crossed with coin of the
realm. Bootblacks have the grab-the-hat
habit. too. and also have gone into
clothes brushing with vengeance. That
would be all right if the modern school of
bootblacks knew how to brush clothes;
evidently the Pullman porters keep the
art to themselves. The Pullman style of
clothes brushing is soothing, but the
bootblack style resembles the onslaught
of a savage.
You will find that the man welding the
brush is Greek. generally. and his
brush is modelled after the club of Her
cules. II he were not trying to do You
a favor you could assume readily that
he intended bodily injury. His one idea
is to beat you soundly all over, like
person busting carpets with long hick-
DRY poles. He assaults you in 'front.' cav
ing in your vest: he bruises you on the
chest, and batters your sides and whips
you terrifically on the calves The sound
of it is like the clatter of hoofs. and the
sensation is just like being beaten to
death.
I stood this thing for IL long time. Then
suddenly a great light dawned on me
and I refused TO drop a coin into the
hand of the thug who daily assaulted me.
He grew angry and thereafter refused to
touch me with that cruel whiskbroom
of his. He glowers at me when l go by,
and probably calls me cheap skate,
which is the worst thing YOU can be to
q man who grovels for tips. he thinks
he is treating me with disdain by not
brushing me off.
AS for me. the bruises he inflicted are
almost healed. and l have saved so many
nickels and dimes that l can almost puy

wore out with brushing.

Zim must be either decisively tanned
or let go. There can be no middle
course. Nothing will hurt a teams
playing quicker than dissension In
the ranks.
The pitching staff has been the
alibi for the Cubs poor showing dur
ing 1918, but the real reason is inter-
nal scrapping. The Trojan is leading
one of the strongest aggregations in
the circuit, and if all the cogs in the
machine were working in cohesion
he would be battling the Giants for
the lead instead of trying to stall off
the Pirates for third place. .:%5f//
Doc Watson, the recruit southpaw,
had his first chance with the Cubs
yesterday, and showed a fair article
of goods. He was affected by wild
ness, a natural defect in the work of
a young left-hander, but at that
would not have been scored on but
for errors by Bridwen and Bresna-
han. The miscues were excusable,
however. s.s -.

Cards. Higgins crew Is the 4softest
aggregation in the league and easy
to beat. The victory viii give Watson
confidence, however, and his next
start may be against team of high
er caliber. The Cards raped eight
hits and were handed half q dozen
passes.
Bresnahan did not know he was
to catch until a few minutes before
the game. Evers wanted the veter-
ans experience with the Cards to
help the recruit pitcher over the
rough spots, and Roger did his duty
well. He was slightly off in his throw
ing in the early stages because he
had not been warming up long
enough to get the range to second
base.
Vic Safer got his usual two hits.

the coming city series with the Cubs,
but he has about decided that three
pitchers will do all the work during
the civil war.
Scott, Cicotte and Russell are the
gunner picked to bear the brunt of
the battle, with Joe Benz having an
outside chance to break in. Russell
will probably pitch the opener, Scott
will shoot in the second fray and CT
cote will work the third. Then the
order will be repeated.
If the Sox get the first three games
or three out of the first four, this
order will probably be disrupted, and
Benz will be given the honor of facing
the National Leaguers. If the fight
is tight all the way the Butcher Boy
will be held in reserve for rescue
purposes.
Cal believes his three stars can
stop the Cubs. He is pinning his faith
to Russell, who will be facing a bat
terry of portside batsmen, against
whom he should be effective. Evers
will probably try to spill Calls fine
calculations by benchlng himself and
putting Phelan on second when Rus
sell works.
The rest of the Sox lineup will
be the same which has gone through
the last month of the American
League schedule. Berger is likely to
displace Breton. at second base.
Cal expects to lodge his club firmly
in fourth place during the St. Louis
series and gain such lead that the
Eastern trip will not bother him.
While the Sox are fighting the
Browns, Boston will be scrapping
with the Athletics, and Mack now
has his team travelling at fast clip.

WEATHER AND RIVER.

The coolest weather of the winter
was recorded Thursday night, when
the thermometer went down to "a
degrees. Much ice is reported.
Rainfall for the week was go inch.
Forecast for Friday: Tonight, fair,
with frost. Saturday, fair with light
variable winds.
River gauge, 1913, rise of 3.3 feet
during the past week. This is over
foot more water than was expect
ed at this point for the present rise.
Tradition has it that the Bayou Sara
gauge never goes less than within
ten feet of the gauge at Cairo. Cairo
got 48 feet this rise, and it was
thought Bayou Sara would not get
more than SO feet. This only exem-
plifies that fact that no one can tell
with certainty what the Mississippi
river will do.
The back water has covered the
truck farms of Chas. Weydert, Geo.
Plettinger and others, destroying
their spring crop of cabbage, on
ions, etc.

A GOOD ROADS AWAKENING.

4 wave Of discussion, planning and
action for good roads is passing over
Louisiana. 1t is a great awakening
as to the paramount Importance of
roads for the well-being of any and
every community. One has only TO
read the country papers, as we dc,
to see that such an awakening is
taking place. 1t is like Rip Van Win
kle arousing himself from sleep, bot
alas, not like the doughty slumberer
to find changes and improvements
except in himself, but instead that
while they have been STEPPED in the
sleep of indifference and neglect,
there have been untold losses from
conditions which should have been
corrected long ago.
st. Mary parish is taking steps to
improve the roads, at an estimated
cost of $4,000 per mile, based on the
blans and specifications of the Iber-
lille roads, which cost about $17OO per
mile, and which have stood the test
CT heavy hauling and the raVages Of
weather. The success in Iberyille is
receiving favorable attention every
where.
In North Louisiana, Bossier and
adjoining parishes are coming togeth-
er to build an interparochial road
that will join the parish sites. Their
congressman, (Watkins) tells them
that they may expect federal as well
as state aid for their project.
And thus it goes. The True Dem
ccrat has in hand circulars from
Washington asking for circumstan-
tial information as to what form gov
eminent assistance will best please
and serve the people. We infer
that the government will help to the
amount Of one third what the To-
cality raises as a road fund. Since
the state gives as much as the TO-
cality does, it is plain that a consid-
cradle fund is available for a commu-
nifty sufficiently active to secure it.
