a party was gotten together i'm
ediately ard started for that place
as s relief party, headed by Sheriff
Aug, Merton and Mayor P. l.
BroussaTd.
-Four boats left here Wednesday
morning, beirg the Iduna, be-
longing to Mr. Surma CALDWELL:
Cecile, belonging to Mr.. Divide
Broossard;, Lorcna belonging to
Nj. John Flemm;rG, and the Z.
NJ. Gladys, belonging to Mr.. Theo,
dorc Veazey.
On TIE Iduma were A. Justitieu,
Sheriff Aug. Morton. Or L. NJ.
Doudrcaux, Geo. Honold.
On the Loreua were John Elem

Flemming.
On the Cecilc were Divide Brous-

On the r. N. Gladys were Thco-
dore Vcazy, Andrew Nelson, Clay

Broussard.
From The time the boats lof,
there was no word ofany kind HAT
could be gotten until late Thurs
days evening when weird came
here from Avery Island, from
where the MclAeuny boat went,
saying that Our boats had reached
there and found everybody safe.
During the afternoon of Thurs
day, when there was several scores
of people waiting at the city wharf
for news, a false report gained
ground that word had been receiv.
ed here that there was nothing
left to be found of Chcnicr Ia Crois
or any people, but in proper in.
vestigation this proved to be false
and shortly afterward the goot
news came from Avery Island thai
all were safe.
The Z. NJ. Gladys was the frs
boat to reach the scene, getting
there about two and one half hour
before the Iduma, which reached
there second. The Cecile reache,
there third and the Lorena neve
did get there.
The McIlhenny boat which wa
dispatched to go there from Aver,
Island, never reached the scene
. but found out that all were safe
The f. NJ. Gladys, with /
people and the Iduma, with 7
people reached here Thursda
night. The Cecile and Loren
were stuck on sand bar at tn
pass, and did not reach here tina
night.
There were over 100 people VIII
stayed out there, having no desir
to come in. 1t seems that they ha
never relied that they were in an
) immediate danger, and from report
the only severe wind was on Tes
( day night.
Messrs. Veazy and Nelson ar
deserving of great praise for thei
d braveness in making the danger

The weather and crop summary
for the week ending May IL, issued
by Section Director Wells of the eli
matological service of the weather
bureau, shows high satisfactory con-
ditions. The report states:
The temperature was somewhat
variable, averaging slightly above
normal in the southeast Frost and
freezing temperature occurred gener-
ally in the central and southeastern
counties, but reports indicate that
only slight damage resulted and this
only over small areas.
The precipitation was generally
above normal, and was usfficiently
heavy to be of material benefit to
vegetation. A few local hail storms
occurred, causing slight damage to
crops over small areas. The general
condition of crops is excellent. Seed
ing of small grain is practically COM
plete and corn planting is advancing
rapidly. Early sown crops are max
ing good growth and in most districts
there is sufficient moisture in the soil
for the termination of the late sown
grain.
There is some complaint of winter
killing of alfalfa and clover. and in
some localities the western cutworm
is damaging the alfalfa, but other
wise hay crors are growing well, and
re farther advanced tina nusual
Range grass is abundant and pasture
in good condition.
Fruit trees. in the sections where
commercial fruit-growing is carried
on, are heavily set with fruit and
promise abundant yields.
The most unfavorable aspect of the
crop situation is the shortage OF wa
ter for irrigation. Some projects,
using water from small streams are
already without water, and in some
Of the larger projects shortage Of
is feared
