Property in New Iberia con-
tinues to change hands to the sat
isfaction of both, purchaser and
seller. This week the Hatch res
idential property, situated op-
posite the old Alma House was
bought by Mr.. D. W. Plaisance of
Houma. Mr.. Plaisance will re-
move his family here as soon as
he can get possession of his hold
ings. The Rand home on upper
Main Street was taken over by
Mr.. Warren Jefferson. It will be
occupied by his family in few
weeks. Mr.. G. F. Barnes who
resided on Charles Street has

Building Association for a nice

From what we are Informed
negotiations are underway for the
sale of the lovely sugar planta-
ton and refinery at Morbihan,
known as the New Iberia Sugar
Co. interests, Mr.. Junius Samp-
son of Galveston being the presl-
dent of the concern. 1t is said
this vast tract of land together
with the refinery is to be taken
over bv Mr.. VIM. N. Bancroft OF
New Orleans at a consideration
of $2OO,O00.00. Just whether or
not the new owner will remove
the refinery we are not in posi-
ton to state at this writing.
Dame rumor has it that if the re-
finerv is sold that it will be dis
mantled and removed to Cuba.
This part of the story we sincerely
hope is not true because it will
be a great loss to the cane growers
of Little Fausse Pointe and the
vicinity thereabouts. Some years
ago the planters around the Lo-
reauville section were deprived
of the Maria Central Factory and
the planters then turned to Nor
bihan and Vida to market their
crops It is true with the water
navigation much Of the cane can
be transported to sugar refineries
further down the Teche. but it is
not near so satisfactory as having
a refinery in the vicinity in which
the cane is raised. We trust Mr..
Bancroft will find it profitable it
the deal goes through to operate
the refinery as it has been hereto
fore. Owing to the short crop
this wear by reason of the bad
PLANTING season all Of the cane
raised in the vicinity of Morhiban
is to be barged to Orange Grove
at Olivier and some Of it as far
down the Teche as Albania be-
low Jeanerette, while the re-
mainder will be cared for by Vida
as it has heretofore.

Two gentlemen from Lafay-
cite had narrow escape with
their lives on Thursday evening
while crossing the railroad in a
Ford car. at Segura. Train No.
Z bound for the west struck the
machine after the occupants had
jumped out and literally smashed
it into a thousand splinters. This
bears out the contention Of many
citizens years ago that this public
should be on the north
side. thus doing away with tie
necessity Of having to cross the
track twice, once at Burke and
then again at Segura. When the
Spanish Trail model road is con-
structed this highway should Oe
on the north side of the Southern
Pacific track. 1t is only a ques-
ton of time before some lives viii
be snuffed out at this particular
crossing and the sooner the road
is confined to the north side the
better.
