Be many people have asked me to do
So, that am in obedience to their con-
tinued solicitation writing you this
Letter. That is that you will refer, to
the files of yonr paper. and republish
the action of the Police Jury, in refer
ence to the closed season in Cane River
Lake. A large number of people are
insisting if the law as now established
does not close the lake the first of
March for the spawning season, it
should be done when the Police Jury
meets. 1t is my recollection, that
Harch the first is the beginning Of the
closed season. The time was original
ly fixed. under the advice of the Fish
Commission, which body sent man up
here Mr.. Truliene as | recall, to advise
with the Police Jury and under his ad-
vice, the season was established for
the spawning and the beginning of the
closed season. Whatever the law is,
it should be again published in our To-
cal papers.

exploded, the steam blowing the
faithful engine Waterman from his
post of duty, through the cab
to the ground where the night
watchaaan, who was aroused by the
explosion and rushed from the de-
pot, found him.
Help was instantly summoned
and the unfortunate young man
was taken to the Sanitarium where
everything that science and skill
could do, was done but he was lit
orally sealded to death and expir-
ed after couple of hours.
Mr.. Laurence Edmonds was the
son of Mr.. j. K. Edmonds, the pop
uIar I. & p. agent, fine young
man whose quiet steady habits
made him full worthy Of his trust
