WHO ARE THEY? THE JAZZ-E-
JAZZERS,

Much interest is manifested
among our young folks as to the
identity of the strange farmers, who
will appear at the Avenue Theatre
on Friday, Feb. A, 1921, at s o'clock
p. m. 1t is rumored around town
that Hiram, a typical hayseed. is
going to entertain at an old time
barn dance and his wife, Samanthy
Ann, will be there to help him.
Everyone is asked to be present,
but is especially warned to wear the
costume of these farmer folk, as
Hiram wants all the male dancers to
have the stable boys overalls and
the female dancers to have the milk
maids apron and bonnet.
A gold piece prize will be given
to the most typical Hiram and to the
most typical Samanthy Ann. No
tickets are on sale, but a donation
of fifty-five cents lis asked from all
to assist these country people to
meet the expenses of the approach
ing season.

DAN CUPID SCORES A HIT AND

There has been a certain mysteri-

New Orlepns immigration Station,

eight months. Most people call him
Dan Cupid and picture him as
wearing a smile and culver full of
arrows innoculated with love virus.
That is, when he comes in the spring

turns lightly to thoughts of love.
However, in this instance no one
recognized him, and the unmasking
of the culprit came as a distinct sur

EXONORATED.

He did not say so, but in order
ing a wholesale shake-up in the pO-
lice department Saturday evening,
superintendent Molony evidently
had in mind the alleged fragrant vio-
lation of the slOt-machine law in the
grocery and saloon of the Sierra

as Avenue.
The raid was made in person by
superintendent Molony, who seized
two alleged gambling devices. slot
machines" which, he said, were be-
ing operated in plain view of pass
ersby on the street on which the
store is located
AS "a result Captain George Ben
CERT, commander of the Eighth Pre-
cinct, Corporal Hyde and Corporal
George Huffman, also attached to
the Algiers station, were ordered TO
report to the superintendent office
Saturday.
Corporal Hyde was exonorated
from all blame attached to the opera
ton of the slot machines, which Mr..
Molony laid directly at the door of
the police in the Algiers station, de-
claring that they had been lax in the
performance of their duties. Cor
poral Hyde proved by the police rec
ords that, during the few weeks that
he has been stationed In Algiers, he
has been on patrol duty only, in a
section where he could not have been
in contact with the Sierra establish
ment.
Although both Captain Bengert
and Corporal Hoffman denied that
they had previous knowledge of the
slot machine operations, both were
ordered transferred from command
of the Eighth Precinct. Capt. Ben
CERT was transferred to the Second
Precinct, and Corporal George Hoff-
man was ordered to the twelfth.
Sergeant James Cripps comes to
the local station and Corporal James
"Buttercup" Burns, was transferred
| from the twelfth to the eighth pre-
cinct. Corporal Burns $50 avoir-

The rolls will then go to the Com

the establishment of a basis for the

Early completion of the rolls this

Mr. Lawton and DR.. Kraft also out
lined a plan that in case it was found
impossible for the city to operate the
ferry municipality, that the franchise
should be so drawn that the bidding
companies could not afford to pay a
big upset price. In other words, the
PRICE OF TRANSPORTATION AND
IMPROVED SERVICE should be the
basis upon which the franchise should
be sold.

with all other organizations in Algiers

ABOUT MASKING
ON MARDI GRAS
Algiers, y. o. La, l, 81. .

Algiers, n. o. La, l, 81, p.
Dear DR.. Kraft, Editor of Herald.
Just a line TO suggest a way of
encouraging promiscious masking
and keeping the people of Algiers, on
this side of the river.
Some years ago, as you know,
you had a platform built in front OF
your home, and the entire population
would gather and witness the mask
ers that would pass before this plat
form, and the best and most comioal
masker would receive a prize.
l believe that it would be an easy
matter to get the leading merchants
and business men and "a lot of other
people interested, who would make
donations, or say if each would give
a dollar, so as to procure several
prizes to be distributed as of years
ago.
1 believe that if this could be
done, it would encourage, the peo-
pie, and bring back the spirit as OF
old. AS we have over here, a beau
tiful playground, l would suggest
this place for the occasion. If you
care to arrange same for Mardi Gras
Day, Feb. Sth, 1921.
Hoping that you give this your
immediate attention and thanking
you, l am,
