 Not So Much Sand
 There is one stretch of seven miles of sand that will require gear change" said Locke yesterday. Tt is between Topock and the hills on the road to Oatman and Gold Roads. And that place is being oiled right now. There is not foot of the rest of the road that is so bad it will necessitate second speed"
 This causes race dope experts to think twice before they predict any low time average like 8 miles an hour. Locke would not say what time the winner would make, but he did claim that not a single car would have, trouble in making 30 an hour. Compared to the 90 horse Simplexes. the little Metz entries look pretty frail, but Wing and Foulks and the other member of the team-whoever he may be-will cer- taingly get here-'

Deceived by the superclassy first three game air tight baseball series be- tween Silver City and Phoenix, our baseball expert went and prepared a chart Cn which to figure some batting and fielding averages. Then he sur veyed this last series, in which Silver City acquired exactly sixty safeties to the 2S by the dozen or so local players, and he decided that he was not being remunerated for helping Messrs.

Expects to Bring Back
Good News.

Mr.. A. Laurent Lacombe, the
popular and jovial insurance
agent of some of the largest
companies in existence, left on
Thursday evening for Atlanta,
Georgia, where he was called to
confer with the officials Of his
company.
Mr.. Lacombe stated that he
would probably have very good
news to give out when he would
return. He expects to go as far
North as New York City and
will not return for several days.
1t would not be surprising il
Mr.. Lacombe would establish a
general agency for Southwest
Louisiana in Opelousas, as he is
considered one of the most sue
cessful insurance writers of this
parish, as we'll as of this section.
He did not have an idea what
his company wanted with him,
but he thought that it must be
something very important, as ne
was notified only a few hours be-
fore he departed.

Another Veteran Gone to
His Reward.

Alfred Perry. a very well
thought Of old Confederate vet
eran, died on Friday night, af-
ter a short illness, at the age Of
70 years.
Mr.. Perry has been a promi-
nent citizen Of this city ever
since the close of the Civil war,
and was prominently connected
here, being a brother-in-law of
the late j. B. Sandoz.
Mr.. Perry, who was a private
during the war, served with dis
tinguished honor in Captain Rob-
ms company, Sons of St. Lam
dry, Company X 18th Louisiana
Infantry and fought in some of
the bitterest fights during the
four years of turmoil, being at
Vicksburg, when the Confeder-
ates lost that post and saw their
hopes vanish forever.
The funeral of Mr.. Perry took
place from his residence on Main
Street to the Catholic Church,
interment being made in the

VENDORS OF ALL SORTS
HERE FOR THE TRIAL.

There are so many peddlars
and vendors in this city that one
would think that a circus was
playing in, Opelousas. Several
of these have come since last
week and have been making en-
deavors to get rich, as they
thought that the Walters-D Dun
bar trial would bring hundreds
of visitors who would be gener-
GUS and spendthrifts- but there
is no doubt that they are daily
becoming acquainted with the
fact that the visitors to this city
during the week are too deeply
interested in the Walters trial.
Some sell fountain pens, 9TH
ers sell potato peelers and others
various trifles, but they are all
sticking. with the exception of
a fortune hunter, who was try
ing to dispose Of his stock of
bunting and ribbons-he soon
discovered that there was abso-
lutely nothing doing in Opelou-
sas for him and caught the next
train out.
It is remarkable how many
such people came to this city dur
ing the trial and they always
have a crowd assembled around
them, as the appear to be flour
ishing some.

Sandoz- Melancon.

MI, Kennel Sandoz. a promin-
emit young man of this city, jour-
neyed to Shreveport the latter
part of last week and surprised
many of his friends when he ar
rived here Tuesday morning with
a pretty, blushing little bride.
The bride was Miss Orfa Mel
ancon, a society girl of Shreve-
port.
The wedding, which took place
in the North Louisiana metropo-
lis, on last Sunday, is the result
of a romantic love affair. which
begun in Opelousas when the
charming little lady was a stu
dent of the Immaculate Concep-
ton Convent Of this city, gradu-
ating a few years back.
Both parties are well known in
this section and have hosts OF
friends who have been congaatu-
lating them ever since their ar
rival here last Tuesday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sandoz are max
ing their home on Market street,
with the parents of the groom,
Mr.. and Mrs. P. Alexis Sandoz.
Mr.. Sandoz is emploeed in his
fathers large merchandise store
on Main street.

Automobiles Becoming
Common Here.

During the last couple of
months automobiles seem to have
become common on the streets
of Opelousas. During the week
three Oakland cars were deliver
ed in the city and one will be de-
livered Saturday. Mr.. E. M.
Boagni. local capitalist purchased
two, F. J. Dietlein, JeWeler one,
and J. P. Mistric, one.
DR.. Johnny Haas expects to
have another large automobile in
his possession within the next
few days. It is understood that
several other prominent citizens
of this city will have their cars
in before very long.
Hon. John w. Lewis received
his Packard a week ago, as did
Mr.. A. Laurent LaCombe, his
Studebaker. Cars of all types
are selling well in Opelousas, and
despite the cry of hard times,
things seem to be going on nice
" in Opelousas.
AS soon as the Walters trial
will be over with, the talk of
celebrating Opelousas Day will
begin and it is expected that a
big automobile parade will be
held; cars from different parish
es will be here for the occasion
and it is thought that Opelonsas
will once more attract large
crowds into its limits.

The Opelousas Band.

The Opelousas band, in the
period of only a few weeks has
proven itself an indispensable adj
junct to the community. Those
who contributed to its support
realize the investment is a good
one. The boys were needed
Easter Sunday to the tune of
$50. 90, their services were given
free.
The concerts every Friday will
become so popular that in the
near future crowds will be drawn
to the court square not only from
Opelousas but surrounding coun-
try and towns.
The band will not be heard at
the ball park Sunday.
Contributions Of $40 and S.
from the merchants around the
square, with a small contribution
from the police jury would turn
the trick and bring about no end
of favorable comment from all
sides.

games has been really marvellous

Why not? 1t has been success
fully done in other towns, adding
UNNECESSARILY to the pleasure of
town people and visitors. A wire
in the center of the street can be
stretched around our principal
square, Court, Landry, Main and
Bellyue, with globes at intervals
of five or six feet. If the mer-
chants offer to make the instala-
ton, possibly the City Council
would agree to operate the i'm
provement. Supt. Jones esti-
mates the cost Of installation at
about $4,000 per block.
