BILLIARDS

While the international billiard
matches between Willie Hoppe. the
American champion, and Melbourne
Imam. the British champion, are still
fresh in the memory of the fans and
while many can recall the meetings of
Frank Ives and John Roberts and
other international matches of note,
few probably are aware that So years
ago TWO of the leading players of Eng
land and the United States played for
big stake in England.
The principals were Lynn Higham,
known as the Albany pony" and the
Englishman was known in the cue
world as ''the Bridgton marker"
Higham, whose home was in AL
Aany. N Y, attracted attention as a
youngster by his skill. At that stage
sthe boy was too SHORT TO reach the
table, and, like champion Willie Hoppe
when he first began TO climb into
fame had to use stool TO shoot from.
bingham improved so much that he
was conceded to be the premier player
Of his day. Leaving his home town,
he went TO New York, where his skill
soon attracted the attention Of some of
E bookmaker named Jackson. In ad-
dl:ion 10 his gambling activities he
conducted g boot and shoe establish
ment, and as he sold moccasins he
was known as "Moccasin."
visiting Englishman. seeing the
skill Of the pony" suggested to Jack
son that he take the young player to
England on the chance of getting on a
Dig match. Higham accordingly be-
gan 70 practice steadily, and grew SO
prohclent he scored a run Of 600
points al the spot stroke, the game
then being played on a 6x12 pocket
taoie, The spot stroke consisted Of
Aol!ns the red ball in the two top
pockets.
AS side line jackson secured a
'Notter and PAGER to match against
any he might find on the other side Of
the water.
Inc Englishman, jackson and Hig-
uan' reached England and after see
'Hs the Brighton marker" perform
concluded he would be easy. A big
match was arranged to be played at
me home Of a nobleman.
On the night of the match the room
was crowded with a brilliant assem-
wage which included many members
U Inc nobility. The sight Of so many
.eweis and the fact that many thous-
Aao dollars had been wagered COM
piese!s unnerved the Albany pony"
nv ne was beaten by big margin.

something better, which is fly

scavengers not less than twice a
month. They will compel the
residents who are not provided
with sanitary toilets to adopt
their system or vote for a sew
rage system of sufficient capacity
to give everybody the needed re-
lief. There are many of our peo-
pie who do not think the State
Board has such powers over Il

the law relative to their jurisdic-
ton over the communities. in mat
ters of this kind, they will read
lily see that the State Board can
do anything to assist in keeping
the municipalities clean. When
taken into consideration the cost
of these sanitary toilets, we do not
know but it would be cheaper to
put in a sewerage system after
Il. There is one thing: certain
if the Board has it within their
power to compel change in the
system of toilets, DR.. Bowling
will take advantage Of the law
whether we are prepared for the
expense or not. While the town
generally, is as clean as the ave-
rage city that has no sewerage,
due to the barbage collecting sys-
tenn put into effect by the present
administration, yet, there are
many surface closets in different
portions of New Iberia that are
at times menace to the general
health of the community. Until
we have good system Of sewerage
this condition will continue and
it behooves our people to submit
gracefully and install the fly
proof closets or better still get
busy on sewerage. A great many
OF our people are inclined 10
think DR.. Dowling's views too

matters. however, once they real.
lie that what Re does is TO. Tn,

Lime, bricks. cement, gravels,

trand Lumber Co. Ltd.
Undoubtedly the residents Of
Center, Weeks and julia Streets
are getting the best cement side
walks III front of their properties
that have ever been constructed
since New iberia has been incOr-
porated. The work that Messrs.
DeJersey & Naff is executing is
not only Of the best material, but
the finishing touches put on the
walks make them take precedent
over any former sidewalks laid
down by any contractors. They
are using Prophet Island gravel
with all of the impurities removed
and together with pure sand,
properly mixed, they cannot but
give the property holders the best
satisfaction. The work is be-
ing judiciously watched by our
civil engineer, Mr.. A. B. Murray,
who is also Oh the job from early
morn until time for the army of
employees to knock off for the
day. The laying of cement side
walks has improved the value of
each piece Of real estate on these
thoroughfares and in many in
stances where the Civil Engineer
has been able to straighten the
walks, there is a noticeable
change in the looks of the prop
erty. 1t is needless to say that
every one living on those streets
are glad of the improvement and
more especially pleased that it
fell to the lot Of DeJersey & Naff
to fulfill the contract.
