Thinks Bayous Should Be Dredged
Beyond Acadia Parish
Line.

Judge A. w. Dejean, of Lewis
burg, power politically and 9TH
erWise in the southwestern section
of st. Landry, appeared before the
st. Landry police jury on Monday,
as a spokesman for the taxpayers
of his neighborhood, who are vital
~ interested in the drainage prop
aganda.
Judge Dejean spoke of the need
of drainage and gave his advice to
the police jury as to the manner
that body oughtto pursue in cre-
ating a drainage district for Plaque
mine Point and West Bellevue. He
claimed that st. Landry should
dredge Bayou Plaquemine Brulee to
such a point in Acadia parish, so
that the water from this parish
would not remain on any st. Lam
dry lands. A few of the jurors
were in doubt as to whether or not
Mr.. Dejean's scheme would work
out, as it is understood that several
rice planters have erected dlkes
across BAYOU plaQuemine in Acadia
parish, some claiming that these
planters would seek to enjoin the
drainage commissioners from
dredging in Acadia. District Attor-
ney Garland was thereupon sum-
moned to give his legal advice,
which was essentially the same as
that given by Judge Dejean.
Upon the suggestion of Mr.. De-
jean a committee was appointed by
President Dimmick to draw up a
map for the proposed drainage dis
trict to ascertain the amount Of
money to accomplish the work. The
committee which is to meet at the
offices of Littell & Lawler, in this
city, on Monday, April 18th, is COM
posed of the following gentlemen:
A. w. Dejean, 2. T. Cary, w. C. De-
jean, Joe Boone, Lastie Richard, DR..
Paul Foster, ]. B. MeClelland, Thos.
Thibodeaux, Theodule F. Richard,
Chas. Bourque, Adam Gay, James
o. Ghachere, n. G. Bourque, P. P.
Hidalgo, and Engineer W. B. Rob-
erf.

DISTRICT SCHOOL MAKES 4 HIT.

opelousas boys and girls gave an
excellent rendition of the 'Dis-
triet School at the Sandoz Opera
House on Thursday night. The old
playhouse was crowded to its ut
most capacity, the cast of charae-
ters being home people and the
play being given for the benefit OF
the Protestant churches Of this city.
Rev. J. B. Brock, as principal of
the school, was undoubtedly good,
while the entire membership OF the
District School, was also very
good. prentiss 0bier, who acted in
the capacity Of the president OF the
school committee, upon moments
notice, also deserves some COM
mendation.
The play might be repeated in
this city for the benefit Of the Elks
and knights of Columbus. il q

PLAISANCi. TO FJlH
DRlIEAii. DISTRICT
Taxpayers in Plaisance and Andre
pont Want Better
Drainage.

4 ( q
That section OF the parish COM
monty known as plaisance which
embraces plaisanee, Andrepont and
a portion OF Prairie Ronde and
'anse des Bellas. will in all prob
ability be given an opportunity of
expressing the wishes of its taxpay-
ers on the important subject of
drainage.
Judge Adolphe Guillory, member
of the police jury from that sec
ton, and a strong advocater of
drainage, stated on last Monday
that his people were badly in need
of drainage and there was a strong
sentiment there in favor of dredg-
ing Bayou Grand Louis.
Some of the biggest and most
prominent taxpayers Of Andrepont
and Plaisance are elamoring for
drainage district and in the event
that the proposition of a tax be
submitted for the approval of the
taxpayers these men will make a
personal appeal to their friends and
neighbors for the tax.
1t is stated that that portion of
Evangeline which borders on Bay
gu Grand Louis is willing to join
the St. Landry taxpayers in defray-
ing the expenses Of dredging that
important stream. In that event,
if the tax should pass, enough
money could be realized to accom-
plish effective work.

| PROGRESSIVE EUNICE
CELEBRATES EASTER
Trainloads of People Landed in
Western St. Landry Town Sunday.
PLEASANT SPEAKS OF
LIBERTY BLESSINGS.
Eunice Team, After Receiving Low
ing Cup, Comes Out Victorious
Against Luteher and N. o.

Eunice, reputed to- be the most
progressive town its size in Louis
lana, fittingly observed Easter Sun
day, by attending Church fesfivi-
| ties in the morning and WITNESSING
! two baseball games in the after
| noon.
Thousands of visitors from every
section of the state poured into the
fast growing st. Landry town on
every train.
Ruffin G. Pleasant, Attorney Gen
eral, and prominently mentioned as
a probable candidate for Governor
was the principal speaker at the
baseball park, prior to the begin
ming of the double header sched-
uled by the Eunice team with
Lutcher and New Orleans. Mr..
Pleasant spoke of the blessings of
religious and governmental liberty
and referred to the wonderful OPP
portunity this country has in be-
ing neutral and free from war
clouds and hoped they would not
blow away.
After Mr.. Pleasant gracefully
concluded his speech, Congressman
Ladislas Lazaro, who had been in
vited to deliver a speech, presented
a silver loving cup to the Eunice
baesball club as champions of am
ateurs in Louisiana for 1914. The
championship souvenir was appro-
priately decorated with the record
of the Eunice team for the 1914
season.
Those who occupied the speak
ers9 stand with Col. Pleasant were
Congressman Lazaro, Sheriff Ma
rion Swords, Gustave Fuselier and
James ]. Lewis, the latter acting
chairman and introducing Mr..
Pleasant.
Due to the fact that excursion
trains arrived in Eunice few hours
late the speaking program had to
be cut short, in order that the sew
watch the Eunice team gracefully
defeating its two opponents. Some
admirers of the Eunice club, after
seeing Eunice winning both games,
expressed the opinion that Eunice
could have defeated both teams to-
gether. The results of the two
games were as follows: Eunice 5,
the New Orleans National Bank
team 9; Eunice 7, Lutcher 1.
The Louisiana National Guards
brass band, headed by Kenneth C.
Banfeiid, furnished excellent mu-
sic for the occasion.
All the churches of Eunice held
special Easter services, with music
and beautiful floral decorations.

of Opelousas.

ant trainmaster for the Texas &
Pacific, in Louisiana, with head
quarters at Opelousas, while Mr..
Jordon will hold down an impor-
tant position at the local depot.
The Texas & Pacific officials had
intimated, in fact had asserted that
Mr.. Jordon would he given an Off
cial berth with the company, but
the people Of this city were set to
thinking over the probable fate of
Mr.. Flanders, veteran railroad man.
and through the instigation of pub.
lie spirited men a petition was CIR.
culated and signed by over three.
fourths of the citizens of Opelou-..
sas, asking the Texas & Pacific to
create an office for Mr.. Flanders,
which would not necessitate his de-.
parture from this city.
Mr.. Leach and several of the high
officials of the Texas & Pacific are
expected in Opelousas at any mo-.
ment this week, when it is expect
ed that the prominent men will ex-.
press their gratitude to these Off.
cials for having granted the prac-i
tically universal wish Of the peo-,
pie Of this city. In retaining Mr.
Flanders and Mr.. Jordon in the ser
vice, with headquarters in this city.
