BIG row or COAL.
Str. eleanor Arrives with Thirty-fve
Barges After Fast Trip.

The big toWboat Cleaner of the
West Kentucky Coal Company, the
third largest toWboat on the Missis-
sippi river, arrived at Germania land
ing at 1:30 o'clock Tuesday after
noon with d tow Of thirty-five barges
of coal, having made the trip from
Paducah, KY, in the fast time of
eight days and three hours. Twenty
one of the barges were dropped at the
West Kentucky fleet at Philadelphia
Point, eleven miles above Donaldson
vile, and fourteen were delivered to
the company's coal loading station in
Port Barrow, Just above town.
The Cleaner departed on the re
turn trip Wednesday afternoon with
tow made up of n empty barges
and the tugboat Ida Patton, formerly
owned by the firm Of Whiteman Bros,
towing contractors Of this city and
New Orleans. The Patton has been
purchased by the West Kentucky
Company for service in the harbor at
Memphis.
In the forty-day interval between
the arrival of the Cleaner at this port
on her last two trips down the river,
thirty-one barges of coal were unload
ed at the Port Barrow station to fill
orders booked by R. N. Sims, state
manager of the West Kentucky Com
pany. The number of loaded barges
now on hand is the largest that has
ever been contained in the local fleet,
and perhaps the largest on the river
between Memphis and New Orleans.

TO REVIVE RACES.
Attractive Card for Initial Matinee
Tomorrow Afternoon.

A movement to revive the racing
game in DonaldsonviIle has been
launched by eoterie of local horse
owners and sportsmen, and cordial
support is being given the project by
the business interests of the com
munity, which have contributed liber-
ally to fund for this purpose. When
first inaugurated here in the summer
of 1918, the sport of kings" proved
instantly popular and large crowds
attended the Sunday afternoon
matinees at the local fair grounds
under the auspices of the Donaldson
ville~A-muz- Association
Bdring the latter part of the sea-
son, however, the attendance fell off
to a considerable extent, owing large
ly to the depressed business condi-
tons then prevailing, and the disso-
luton of the A-muz-u Association
followed, the race track and para
phernalia of the organization pass
ing into the possession of the South
Louisiana Fair Association, by whom
t ii is presently owned.
One or two sporadic attempts to
bring the amusement back to life
were attempted last summer, but
lacked the necessary enterprise and
financial backing to make them sue
cess.
The present movement is on a far
different scale, and with the united
cooperation of the horse owners of
this vicinity and those of New Or
leans, supplemented by the encour-
agement of the commercial interests
of Donaldsonville and the patronage
of the racing fans, it is confidently
believed the kingly sport will prove
more popular than ever before and
attract large crowds of spectators
| throughout the season.
For the opening attraction tomor-
row afternoon an excellent card has
been arranged, consisting of the fol-
lowing events:
Free for all, mile heats, best in
Sweet Sultan, L. B., Ira Gay,
Frances T.
2::25 class, mile heats, best 8 in s.
Brownie Brooks, Bone Setter, Fair
Play, Gold Foil, Billy g., Benny r.,
Gordon McGregor, Arkansas Queen.
Two running races, distances 4 IL
furlongs and three-quarters of a
mile. Ten speedy thoroughbreds will
compete in these events.
The track is in fine condition and
the horses are all in training, hence
some fast time and close finishes may
| be looked for.
1t will be the aim of the manage
ment to conduct the races on a high
plane Of craftsmanship, such as will
merit the patronage of the public,
and to this end no effort will be
spared to secure the very best horses
and to pit them against each other in
events that will constitute real tests
of speed.
The prices of admission will be
only Is and 35 cents, and anyone
who is dissatisfied with the character
of the sport may have his money re-
funded
Music will be furnished by the
crack Peerless brass band.
