Work for the two-day Fair tt
be held on Saturday and Sun
day, October 18th and 18th fol
the Catholic College, is progress
ing smoothly, the ladies having
prepared many interesting fea
lures of entertainment which
will be worthy of public patron
age. Much interest is displayed
in the game of Progressive Eu-
chre, for which handsome prizes
have been donated, and which
will be played on the spacious
galleries of the College. The
game Of base ball between the
Knights Of Columbus and the
Woodmen of the World promises
to be spirited event and the
Fancy March and Drill by fifty
little girls now in training will
be a pretty sight. The different
booths are to be decorated each
one in a chosen color and flower,
and will afford display of taste
Of the ladies of the different CON-
mittees, each aiming to produce
the prettiest effect. A large as
sortment of needle work Of all
description has been donated by
the ladies Of the Parish and will
doubtless find appreciative buy
ers. Complete and well-cooked
dinners will be served and all
sorts Of good things to eat will
be sold at reasonable rates.
Further features of the Saturday
and Sunday entertainments will
be published later. Entrance to
Fair will be free, except adm1s

ished throughout the two days by

Hon j s Powers rpDfaSpnt

Hon. j. S. Powers, represent
ing the firm of Dallas 4 Bertram
through this section returned
home last Wednesday after tour
ing st. Martin, Vermilion and
Lafayette Parishes. Mr.. Powers
has devoted a great portion of his
time demonstrating to the small
farmers the advantages Of the
DeLaval Cream Separators in
conducting their dairy farms and
also the use of Silos for the pur-
pose of preserving green food
the year round. From what we
are informed he met with much
success and it is astonishing how
many Of our planters have al
ready purchased and the number
who will soon take advtange of
these necessary adjuncts to sue
cessful farming. 1t is only in
recent years that the advantages
Of Silos became known in these
parts and now almost every sixty
days we can hear Of some enter
prising farmer making an invest
ment.
On Monday morning last at
about nine o'clock, the elegant
residence of Mr.. Frank Delahous-
sage, situated on lower Main
Street, adjoining the Magnolia
School suffered destruction by
fire despite the heroic work of
our noble fremen. The origin of
the fire evidently was caused
from the fiue in the kitchen, al
though Of brick and the house
having sheet iron roof which
kept the flames confined to the
garrett made it hard matter for
the firemen to get sufficient water
into the building before the
house was glutted. 1t was not.
until they succeeded in breaking
eff a lot Of the weather boarding
that water could be shot into the
building. After this was ac-
complished the flames were sub
dued. 1t was impossible to save
much furniture and everything
was allowed to remain and the
damage by water makes most OF
it unfit for further use. In this
Instance like all others of recent
date the Fire Department done
heroic work. The fact that we
are so well equipped with fire
and the best Electric
Alarm system affords those who
are serving as Firemen an excel
lent opportunity to do successful
work. Mr.. Delahoussaye was
partly insured and will necessar-
ilv suffer some losses.
