PAVING WORK.

| Due to adverse weather conditions
the work of paving our city streets
has proceeded very slowly during the
past week, even where the necessary
material was on hand.
/ The Southern Bitulithic Company
have been putting in half day or a
day, at intervals whenever the fire.
quent rains permitted, on Duperier
Avenue, and have succeeded in laying
the curbs and cutters from the city
bridge out the Avenue about to Henry
Street.
Considerable time was necessarily
consumed in the extra work of strai-
ghtening out the sharp double corner
at the corner of Mount Carmel Con-
vent, but the time and the expense
now are seen to be fully justified in
the greatly improved appearance.
Where the street was cat across
the corner of the Convent property
and DR.. Henry Dauterive's sanitarium
grounds, the old concrete sidewalk
had to be torn up and new one con-
structed several feet further in. The
little store on the opposite cor
ner was moved a few feet back also,
to allow a further Strengthening of
the street.
No more shipments of brick for
the Main Street work have been re-
ceived since last week, and the con-
tractors are still holding up until
enough material arrives to complete
up past the Bridge Street corner be-
fore starting operations again. In
this connection it seems that the
Thurber Brick Company, Of Thurber,
Texas, are much better at making
promises than at making brick, as
they have written repeatedly promis-
ing shipments that invariably have
failed to arrive here on the job.

THE BASE BALL SITUATION

With the playing of Saturday sane
Sundays games the first half of the
Championship Pernant Race in the
Louisiana State League will be ended
And win or loose, the local fans Of
the National Pastime, can say thai
they were treated to some real base
ball on the local grounds.
Coming from the lowest position
to the top of the league in record
breaking streak Of sixteen victories
out of twenty games played, the New
Iberia team started on their final
road trip several games in the lead
and seemed almost certain of final
victory. They hit Oakdale still well
in the lead with six games to play
with the Lumberjacks.
Here, however, is where the trouble
started. Absolutely violating the in
tentions of the National, Base Ball
Association rulings, the Oakdale man.
agement had picked up several play
ers from Alexandria, especially two
pitchers, Chalette and Mcdonald, the
regulations strictly prohibiting the
exchange of players in any manner
among teams of league this near
to the close of Championship series.
AS these six games were scheduled to
be played in three days, the addition
of two strong pitchers gave Oakdale
big advantage.
Not content with this violation of
the rules, Oakdale is reported to have
violated the fourteen man player linn
it, having several extra men in uni
form for use in pinch.
The umpires were intimidated, in
suited, and all but mobbed, and one
game was completed with two of the
Oakdale players acting as umpires.
Needless to say, the Lumberjacks won
that game, although it was really
New Iberia's game from the start as
far; as good playing is concerned.
Manager Gondolfi played the series
Of games under protest, and the case
will be decided Sunday night at a
of the League officials in
Lafayette. With these games thrown
out of the count New Iberia will no
doubt figure again in first place and
be declared the winner of the first
half season honors.
To strengthen New Iberia's claim

the part of the Oakdale Club, Rayne's

Thursday morning, alleging unbear-

for some time in Ireland, wrote at
some length about st. Patrick's purga-
tory on the Donegal Lough Derg island.
''The island In the lake." he wrote, "is
divided into two parts, on one side be-
ing a church Of great sanctity. amid
scenes Of wondrous beauty, Its charms
heightened by the frequent visits Of
angels and local saints. The other
side of the island is rugged and hide
Gus and is reputed to be the resort of
demons and the haunts where evil spir-
its perform their dreadful orgies. This
portion of the island has nine pits and

one Of them he or she is seized by
malignant spirits and tortured. Who
ever has borne these agonies In dis
charge of penance will not undergo fu.
ture punishment in hell. unless persist
ing in shining worse than before"
In this manner the Welsh historian
writes Of the other st. Patrick's pur-
gatory. Long before his day, however,
legend and myth had cast their glamour
over lovely spot which was. without
doubt, at one time sanctiaed by the
presence and the ministrations OF the
apostle Of Ireland. It was credulous
age In which Giraldus Cambrensis
lived and his narration Is as Of mat
ter Of fact in which he himself be-
lieved.
The simple-minded people Of the
Donegal hills nre not much harassed
by speculative doubts. and to them gen.
orally the traditions attached to Lough
Derg and st. Patrick's purgatory ap-
peal as strongly and make no greater
demands upon belief than are made by
matters regarded as still more essen
tial.
The FIRST mention Of St Patrick's
purgatory In literature was made BY
a monk, Jocellne of Furness. In his
"vita Sancti Patricii." written about
the year 1888. Giraldus Cambrensis'
reference to II was made two years
later, but neither he nor JocelIne ad-
yanced the idea that the purgatory
was an entrance into the other world.
