Sword DeadIier Than Gun.

In spite of the long casualty lists of
the present war, fought with all the
fendish con%trivances of modern
science, the destruction of life is not
so great in proportion to earlier wars
when soldiers fought hand-to-hand.
The most deadly Of all weapons was
the Roman short sword. Caesar re-
ported that, at the battle he fought
pear Namur. his soldiers slew 10000
of the Nervii. There were no wound
ed when the weapon was the short
sword. AS men began to fight at long
er range, the death lists grew shorter.
1t is an axiom of modern war that it
costs a marksman his own weight in
lead to kill ono Of the enemy.-Peo-

CLARK FIXEDUP
IN NEW PLACE
Popular Jeweler Says He Can
Already See Material In
crease In Business

While sauntering down Landry
street this week representative of
the Progress was hailed by the
happy voice of John Clark the pop
ular and Industrious young jeweler,
who recently moved from Bellevue
street to the SandOz building, on Lam
dry street.
Mr.. Clark Immediately took US in
charge and showed US the new stock
he recently purchased for his winter
trade-and all is so beautifully dis
played, too. He has installed the
most up-to-date furniture and fix
lures, and according to him his place
clocks like a genuine, up-to-date jew
elry store"
The young jeweler is satisfied be-
yond doubt at the move He says
that he can already perceive materi-
al increase of business that in spite
of the very adverse weather condi-
tions experienced in this parish for
the past several weeks. He expects
to do a larger business this fall than
at any time since he has been in the
business, and he says 81 am prepared

CITY MAY PASS
LAW SOON
Understood Majority of COun-
Gil Favors Measure Urged
by Commerce Chamber

Opelousas will have a stringent
stock law within a short time, if re-
ports current on the streets during
the past week are correct. 1t is said
that three members of the city coun-
Gil are in favor of the movement re-
Gently inaugurated by the Chamber
of Commerce, and that at the next
meeting of the city fathers an ordi-
nance, which will forever keep the
internal cows off the lawns and
gardens of civic beauty-loving resi-
dents, viii be adopted.
Present conditions have been a
source of much disappointment to
hundreds of public spirited citizens
of 0pelousas. A campaign for a
''city beautiful has been considerably
retarded because the Chamber of
Commerce has thus far been unsuc-
cessful in its attempt to convince the
city authorities that the adoption of
stringent stock ordinance would not
impose any hardships on the poor cit
liens of 0pelousas.
Now that three members have as
sured the Chamber of Commerce that
they were willing to vote for an or
dinance making the fine so heavy
that it would be hardship to allow
ones cattle to run over the city. 1t is
taken for granted that at the NOvem-
Der meeting of the council the cattle
question will be finally settled.

The council has de- cided to close down the system rather than comply with the ultimatum of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, that unless the council withdraws the dismissal notices, the society will with draw all members municipally en- ployed.
 The council decided to ignore the ul- timatum and arrange to run the power station.
 The Johannesburg architects are en- deavoring to effect a settlement in the building strades strike. Meanwhile the industrial federation is asking the trades unions throughout the strike to levy five shillings weekly in behalf of the Johannesburg builders and the Pre- toria tramway men.
 A number of other movements are progressing in Johannesburg for in creased wages and better conditions It s stated that the .Amalgamated So ciety of Engineers has decided on a movement for shorter hours through out South Africa, and also that the miners are about to demand an eight hour day and a five-day week: The success of this latter movement is de- pending upon the building strike.
