pride about the Gem state, upon leav-

then threw his Idaho button out into
the bay, ashamed to face the people
with that emblem after seeing the far

plenty of evidences that exhibits had
been torn out, showing unpainted
floors in spots in contrast to the 9TH

Mr.. Barber that the present execu-

for a rest room for Idaho people. Mr..
Barber's statements have been corrob-
GRATED by other people from this city
as to the chaotic condition of affairs
in and around the Idaho building.

its own purposes during the pres

brought in to remount stations cost
81 per head more than last year.

In the finishing of the floor a
metal composition was used mixed
with cement, which has been
guaranteed to be oil and water
proof, also making the floor harder
and less liable to injury or
scratches, etc.
Water has been connected to the
exhaust of tie new crude oil ell
CINE at the water and light plant,
to deaden the noise of the exhaust.
1t is quite an Improvement, as the
noise is scarcely noticeable even
when near the plant.
The water is SPRAYED in near the
engine and cools the hot gases as
they come from the engine, so that
by the time they reach the atmos-
phere they are cool enough not to
make much noise. The water in
the exhaust appears as steam at
the end of the exhaust pine on the
outside of the building.
There is a movement on foot to
have Magdelene square improved

put in operation again. To do
this will necessitate the concreting

Team Organizes
VIII Have Fast Aggregation
i'll Field---T Lineup.

At meeting of the officers and
members of the Abbeville base ball
team, Sunday, February 18th, it
was decided to organize at once
so as to commence rounding the
crack nine into shape, and have
them ready for any strong teams
that may want games in the early
part of the season. This team is a
newly organized one over last
years, having several new PLAYERS
who played with good teams in
this vicinity last year. 1t was a
we'll known fact that all Abbeville
lacked last year was heavy PLAYERS.
and as this team averages 155
pounds, this question is settled
without doubt. With the aid
aid of the base ball lovers of
this town who seem to take a great
deal of interest in this years team,
the expense of new base ball out
mt will be easily cleared. Prepar-
atoms have been made to purchase
suits and other needful articles for
this season. With the prospect of
a new grandstand, the chances
will be good of getting good games
tor this summer. The lineup
will be as follows:
Hy Congame- Catcher.
Leon Stansbury---Pi Pitcher.
Lawrence Castagne---First base
and sub. pitcher.
+. c. Lallande---Second base.
, Elias Hebert---Short-stop. .. |
B. P. n. Zerange--- Third base.
Paul Saparito---Center field.
Aurilien Prejean---Left field.
Earle en---Right field.
Frank Levy---Sub. catcher.
The officers are as follows: G.
J. Common. Manager; Henry Con- !

Water and Light
Plant Improves
Manager of Company Making
Service More Complete

Owing TO the magnesia con.
tanned in the water, scaling badly
III the new crude oil engine at the
water and light plant, it was found
necessary to install a circulating
water system to use soft water
from the bayou with which to
cool the piston and cylinders of
the engine.
The circulating water system
which is complete and in opera
ton. consists of a centrifugal cleo
trio motor driven pump located near
the edge of the bayou, which puts
water i'll two galvanized iron cis-
terms mounted on the roof of the
plant, from where the water is fed
by gravity, to the engine in just
sufficient quantity to maintain
proper temperature.
The pump is mounted on a re-
Enforced concrete foundation ten
feet above ground. The founda-
tion extends seven feet below the
ground surface and acts as a Dit
for the centrifugal pump. The
pump is constantly submerged,
and therefore always primed. 1t
was found necessary to put the
motor ten feet above so that it
would not be ruined by high
water.
The electric light poles across
the bayou were repaired last week. |
and made some sixteen feet higher.
1t frequently happened that boats
with high smokestacks or masts
were unable so pass under the
wires on the old poles and that
necessitated the taking down of
the wires every time one of these
boats went up or down the bayou.
BY making the posts longer, the
wires are now high enough to Der
NIT any and all boats to go under
without interference. Large cleo
trio lamps will soon be installed on
these posts to take the place of the
small ones now in use, giving an
of light at each end of
the bridge.
The water and light plant has been
further improved by the concrete
floor just put in by A: NJ. Lockett
& Co. of New Orleans. The old
floor was badly damaged by the
installation of the new machinery
and by the digging of trenches to
accommodate the different lines of
pipe for the new engine, and it
was found that a concrete floor
was the only remedy.
The trenches have all been
boxed up with concrete and covered
with lumber, making them acces-
