CLEANUP OF MINING TOWN
BROUGHT ABOUT BY GIRL.

The town Of Oatman, wild
mining community, was rotten
with corruption and under the
control Of Ben Grant, a bully and
CRATER. Therefore, it was not
strange that eagle" Ryan. an
outlaw leader masquerading as a
minister, should be insulted by
Grant when he came to TIE. town,
supposedly to work in the express
office and preach.
Grant had reputation as
fighter and was feared generally,
but the cold, clear eyes Of
Eagle" Ryan looked defiance
and Ryan's right fist became
clenched when Grant tried to
bully him. Suddenly Ryan struck,
and the fight was on. Back and
forth across the saloon floor the
men fought, while the crowd
looked on, amazed at the ability
shown by the minister. " Then
Ryan broke Grants arm and the
fight was ended. Ryan became
popular idol.
Then, after his splendid con-
quest Of a man who had scoffed
at his ministerial garb, Eagle .
Ryan returned to his old self as ar
otheist, and hurled defiance to
Heaven.
eff there be Cod, - he
shouted, 81 defy him to master
me.'
But Ryan was mastered. and I

If all the rumors about addi-
tional sales rooms for automobiles
be true New Iberia will soon be
known as the auto center for
every car being manufactured.
Last week we mentioned that
Messrs. Lassalle and Son had
leased the brick building at the
corner of Main and Weeks Street
to display cars and accessories.
Som weeks ago the Jeanerette
Hardware Co. purchased the large
brick building at the corner of
Main and French Streets and they
will carry large stock as we'll as
accessories. The report is current
that two other buildings have
been leased, one by Mr.. Edwin
Kyle for the same purpose and the
other by Mr.. Reubin H. Brown
of the town Of Jeanerette. New
Iberia will then be in position to
boast of having more sales agen-
cieS for automobiles than any
city in the South it's size. This

ATTEND. THE MEETING.

The Protestant Cemetery Asso-
citation hold their regular month
ly meeting on Monday next, Aug.
18th at the Hotel Frederic at five
o'clock. It seems almost impossi-
Bile, during the wet weather, then
the hot weather, then any weather
at all, to get the requisite quorum
for business. To use a CONNER
cial expression, we are running
short handed. Our valuable treas
urer has had serious inconven-
fence from eye trouble, so faith
full as she has been for years, she
had in self protection to forego
any extra work, employing Sec
rotary in her own business. Also,
the financial secretary, has been
absent all the winter in Washing
ton, and since in New York and
other places Of interest. 1t used
to be when Miss Nina Barnard
was away, her aunt, Miss Lizzie
DeValcourt took up her work and
with characteristic faithfulness
everything was sure to be all
right, but more than a year ago
this gentle spirit slipped into her
place III Heaven, into the Celestial
choir no doubt, and this vacancy
is most difficult to fill. This Off
Ger is now required to make all
collections for which the organi-
cation pays ten per cent. There
is an excellent ground committee,
a capital endowment fund COM
mittee. Now, all their information
is to urge all who are interested
or ought to be interested in Rose
Hill cemetery, to attend the meet
ing next Monday at five o'clock.
The street.payement all along the
Main Street entrance will be a
vital question to be discussed
There is an expense Of something
over three thousand dollars, with
generous allowance Of time in
which to pay it. So don't you
forget next Monday at 5 O'Clock,
Hotel Frederic.
Now, if there is anything else
that should have been said and
was not. please consider it said.

that in the course Of time he will en-
tirely regain the use of his limb. Mr..
