Shipment from Lennon on Sat

capacity Of 10 gallons so there
was approximately 800 gallons
shipped or 6400 pounds. If this
cream had an average test of sc
per cent and the price of butter,
fat was q cents, the amount OF
money received by the shippers
would be $527.60 minus their
shipping charges which amount
to about $50. Take this same
cream and make into butter
With a good buttermaker, ar

Neat Trimming by al
to D Score.

mon LidntS shut out the HCttIn-
ger ball tOs~crs 10y "A score Of
three to one, on the ilettinger
diamond last Sunday. The game
was one continual fight from
start to finish aud at no time
during the entire battle was the
outcome a certainty.
Sig Ramstead. the star twirler
of Adams county. was on the
mound for Hettinger and altho-
ugh the Giants connected for IL
safeties he pitched great game
as the score will indicate, pulling
out of places where it seemed
that Lennon was sure to score
several runs. Green did the re
ceivlng act and handled the posi-,
ton in good shape.
Fly. the invincible. was on the
firing line for the Giants. and
proved his superiority over any
pitcher in this section, beyond
question. He let the lIettinger
Hopefuls down with three scat
tered hits and ma ie Is of their
men 90 to the bench via tie
strike out route. He not only
proved his ability as a pitcher
but again showed that he was
there with the stick. smashing
out a three bagger, a double and
a single out of four times up.
He also crossed the plate for two
of the three runs made by the
Lennon team.
Potts was behind the bat for
Lennon and that he is catcher
of class was proven to the entire
satisfaction If the fans. He
caught every man that tried to
steal second by a good margin
and although he had a passed
bail he did exceptional work IN
handling some of the big In
dian's bad breaks. He also
smashed out three nice hits and
crossed the plate for the other of
the Giants score.
Sheets carried away the batting
honors for the day, getting away
with three bingles out of that
many times at bat.
All the way through the game
was clean and played without
any questions of the umrires
decisions. All the fans that
were there felt satisfied that
they had seen one of the best
exhibitions OF the national game
ever played in tins section Of the
country. Double plays, { a t
fielding and good pitching com
bined to make the game one that
will be remembered for a long
time to come.
Thirty OF moe carloads of fans
accompanied the team from this
place and it is estimated that
there were 700 people in attend
ance at the game, which goes tC
show that the people are awake
to the fact that when HettIngel
and Lennon meet there is yong
to be real battle.

On Monday last, Mr.. AL.
phonse Davis representative OF
the Southwestern Power and
Traction Company made a flying
visit to our sister town of st
Martinville to learn the status
and feeling of our neighbors rel
alive to voting the special tax for
the extension of the Trolley to
that point. He informed us that
the outlook was very promising
and almost all of the people were
willing to again approve the tax
once it is submitted to them at
another election. 1t will be re-
membered the enterprising citi-
zens of st. Martinville gave their
approval of the tax some two
years ago, but owing to the
stringency of the money markets
the Company could not float
their bonds and the whole mat
ter has been held in allegiance
until this time. From what we
learn the Company has pur-
chased all Of the steel rails and
made application for the neees-
sary cars to be used in the ex-
tension. The whole matter
hinges upon the voters Of st. Mar
tinville again approving Of the
small tax asked, otherwise the
Company will proceed to build
from Jeanerette to Franklin. We
sincerely hope our neighbors at
st. Martinville will not lose this
opportunity to connect this
link at New iberia. Nothing will
develop section of country more
than first-class system of inter
urban roads and it behooves them
to again take advantage Of this
opportunity before it is too late.
