President of Police
Jury Resigns

At the regular meeting of the
Police Jury on last Friday the
resignation Of F. L. Sanford from
the 9th ward was rendered the
body and accepted with manifest
regrets, his position as president
of the board being filled by vice.
president, ]. R. Leslie, and G. M.
Tate was elected as ce.president.
The public concur in the opinion
that Mr.. Sanford made a splendid
police member and rendered VAL
liable service to the parish while
on the board, but the necessity
of his spending so much of his
time in Washington in the gov
ernment's ship building activities
he believes makes it impossible
for him to properly care for the
interests of his ward and parish.
A petition signed by the repre-.
sentative citizens Of the sixth
ward, endorsed j. &. Green Of
Enon, for the vacancy aud it is
presumed the Endorsement will be-
favorably considered as Mr.. Green
is sure to make a good Police
member.

A Remarkable, Truck.

A Duplex four wheel drive
lumber truck came into our town
last week from New Orleans via
Baton Rouge. Mr.. P. E. Greeu-
law, special representative OF the
Greenlaw Truck & Tractor Co.,
of New Orleans, reports that
they had quite a trip, and from
the looks Of the mud Oh the
truck when they arrived, we be.
lieve they did.
This truck gets its power thru
all four wheels, pulling loads and
doing more work than can be
done with three four-yoke OK
teams. Before Mr.. Greenlaw
left New Orleans this truck was
loaded with fourteen tons $4,000
feet of green lumber) in a dem
onstration there. In another
demonstration they hauled fifty
bales of cotton. The truck is
guaranteed to 90 where no other
truck can 90. and to pull when
all others have stalled. 1t is get
ting to be we'll known among the
lumbermen. hauling four and five
thousand feet of lumber at an
average cost of less than So per
thousand on a ten.mile haul.

Base Ball Season Opens Here

The opening ball game of the
season was played on the dia-
mond here Friday between the
Tylertown nine and the local
team.
The ranks here had to be filled in
from the second school team and
the game proved somewhat of a
joke to the visitors, it was such
an easy getaway" Keeping
score proved too arduous a task
for the tallymen, and the most
definite news to be had concern
ing the score was the remark
that the Tylertown boys ran till
they all gave out and piled up
scores too rapidly for the count
to be kept up with.

Storm Hits Town Saturday.

After heavy rains, much wind,
and vivid and incessant lightning
thru all the night Friday, heavy
storm broke over town just be-
fore daybreak Saturday.
Much damage was done and
great fear excited tho nobody
was injured. One horse was kill.
ed by a barn blowing down.
Many outhouses we're completely
demolished, numbers of houses
unroofed, large windows blown
out and broken, awnings and
porches blown away, smoke.
stacks, electric light and tele.
phone posts, fences and trees all
over town laid low, the streets
being so INSTRUCTED as to necessi
tate a big working crew all day
to clear them for travel. Gar.
dens and fields sustained heavy
damage as practically every
thing was blown down and much
was uprooted by the rain.
The wind and rain ceased dur.
ing the greater part of Saturday
only to begin again about night
fall and continue throughout
Saturday night, and with total
clearing of clowds Monday, the
whole town looks shining and
beautiful in a clean spring dress.
