APRIL-FOOL-WEDDING JOKE
RECOILS ON PERPE-
TRAITORS.

Thursday evening G. Marshall, 212
Verret street, was talking with
James Montgomery and William Nor
ton, two friends, when Miss Justine
l.. Huff, 1881 Annette street, passed
by. 1t was common knowledge
among friends of Marshall and Miss
Huff that they liked each other
rather well, and Norton and Mont
gomery thought it would be a won
derful April Fool joke on ''the
crowd" for the couple to go to Gretna
and spread the rumor that they had
been married.
Miss Huff was willing to take the
auto ride across the river, and John
Leblanc proffered his car for the
jest.
The car, carrying out the joke,
stopped at the residence of Justice
Trauth, the marrying Judge" OF
Gretna. The couple got out and
rang the bell, while their friends
became convulsed at the clever man
ner in which they were carrying the
joke to the last step.
Just as the door opened the couple
looked back and called out: april
Fool!" then stepped inside. BY the
time their friends recovered they
were emerging as man and wife.
Mr.. and Mrs. Marshall are living
at the home of the former in verret
street, and are at home to the friends
on whom they turned the tables.

HEALER VISITS ALGIERS
BROTHER ISAIAH EFFECTS NO
CURES.
Algiers People Crowded Away by
People from City and State.


With the assistance OF Mrs. Au-
gust Schabel. and Mrs. Theo. Todd.
Brother Isaiah gave oyer day to the
afflicted OF AlgierS. The Court
house yard was assigned to the
Healer. and with the assistance of
Sergeant Prados and Sergeant Traub,
good order was maintained in de-
spite OF the large crowd.
1t was Mayor Behrman intention
i'll asking Brother Isaiah to come
into Algiers that only Algiers peO-
PIE be given the opportunity to see
the Brother. but there were hundred
OF people. strangers to the city and
many fro mite city who crowded
away many OF the Algerines, who
came for the purpose of having
miracle worked upon them.
Considering the time that Brother
Isaiah was in Algiers only a very
few AlgierS people were treated.
There We're, however, city people and
some out of the state who received
the treatment here.
1t was early seen that Brother
Isaiah could not be dictated to. He
turned a deaf ear TO the applications
OF some of the afflicted, and their in
fluential friends. Brother Isaiah
could not be moved and he Sc
lected his patients as he desired.
Brother Isaiah stood on a plat
form and did pnnSi6ara hIa ruhhipa
with wintergreen oil, and kept busy
looking around the multitude for
perhaps favorable subject.
1t has not come to our notice that
any special or miraculous cure was
effected at Mondays meeting.

SPECIAL SESSION CALLED TO IN
VESTlGATE ACTION OF RoAD
SUPERVISORS.
DONATION FROM THE STATE
Opinion ls That Parish Jury Acted
Upon Erroneous Presumption In
Attempting To Set Aside the
Sum Of $4,000.

Jones sboro, La. The grand jury
lily for Investigating the action of the
board OF supervisors OF road construc-
tion for Jackson parish. filed its final
report, returning four true bills in
other matters and commendign the
members of the board Of supervisors
for the honest, practical and econom-
ical manner they have handled the
road construction.
The report says In part:
eve find thot In a few instances ex-
cessive prices have been paid for
right of way, and that even wire fenc-
ing has been purchased and used to
enclose property belonging to private
persons. While we are not in position
to say that in no instance should the
board OF supervisors pay for right OF
way, but we do not believe that 1t
should in any case 90 on record as
purchasing the material and building
fences We appeal to all public spir-
ited citizens to make every reasonable
sacrifice to the end that the money
now on hand may be used In building
and constructing roads throu8hous the
parish with as little loss to or extor-
ton on the road funds as reasonably
possible.
1--WE are assured by those In charge
of the road building that they have
received the promise Of the State
Highway Department that, II the pres
ent plans to construct an east ad west
and a north and south road through
the parish are carried out, we can
secure a donation from the state and
federal government of about $4,000
on the east and west road and about
S150. 900 on the north and south road
This board of supervisors assures US
that the ordinary roads throughout
the parish are now being worked as
rapidly as possible and that by late
fall they expect to have every road In
the parish worked in good shape, all
at an expenditure of not over seven
or eight thousand dollars. Our inves'
tigation convinces US tnat 1t is prop
able that the board of supervisors can
do this, for we find that many miles
of road bave already been worked by
them throughout the parish.
.'It is our opinion that the jury OF
our parish acted upon an erroneous
presumption or statemet nf facts In
attempting to set aside the sum OF
100000 for the purpose Of working
the roads generally throughout the
parish. II this should be done 1t would
probably result in neither the north or
south roads being completed and the
people never deriving the benefit for
the $242,9S5.S3 which has been spent
1T the present time.

FIRST BALE TEXAS
COTTON ARRIVES
Second Bale Follows on the
Heels of First; Both From
magic Valley"

Houston, Texas-Speeded on
chartered train that cost the shippers
s1.O25. a bale of cotton grown by
Ernst Matz at San Benito won In
race to market with another bale
from Edinburg, arriving in Houston at
4:3O p. m. Friday, and was awarded
the honor of being the first bale OF
cotton of the 1920 growth to reach
cotton exchange.
The second bale, which came on
the regular Gulf Coast line passen-
ger train, reached the city three hours
later, arriving at the Union Station
at 1880 p. m. Both bales were on
the same train until kingsv1lle
was reached, when Brice Frazier OF
Houston and James c. Bowie char
tered the special train and got the
San Benito bale to Houston first. The
Edinburg shippers, John Lomax and
w d. Shadrick tried to locate an air
plane to bring their bale in, but failed
and lost the race.
The Magic Valley" wins the honor
of producing the first two bales of
the crop in the United States. The
valley wins this distinction every year,
and with few exceptions Houston has
received the first bale each year for
the last so years.
The San Benito bale, claimed Off
cially by Houston as the first bale
of the season, weighed $50 pounds
and was unofficially classed strict
middling
The Edinburg bale weighed 570
pounds and was ginned from 1870
pounds of seed cotton. Both bales
were picked at about the same time
and the Edinburg bale was said to
have been actually ginned about two
hours before the San Benito bale,
but the latter beat the former to
Houston.
The arrival of two first bales" on
the same day breaks all previous rec
ords in Houston. Formerly week or
two usually intervened between the
arrival of the first bale and succeed
ing shipments.
The first bale this year arrived five
days earlier than the first bale last
year, which came from Edinburg, June
30 The 1919 bale weighed All pounds
and was sold for $1,000 at the auction.
In 1918 the first bale arrived on June
25; in 1917, on June "a, and in 1916
on June 9, the earliest on record, and
sold for $1,O25, the highest price on
record
