The Teche Transfer Co.
operating cars between New
Iberia and Franklin this week
closed for long lease with Mr..
Fred Patout for the large brick
building occupied by the Good
win-Buquor Motors Go. 1t is
the intention of the Transfer
Co. to make this building their
main headquarters. A part of
the building will be used to store
their cars and the other part of
the structure will be arranged
into a station where the passen-
gers can be comfortable Until
they are ready to board the cars
The acquisition of this Company
to New Iberia will mean the
bringing into New Iberia of sew
cral families such as mechanics
and drivers and help to swell
the population of our growing
City. This concern has met
with phenomenal success since
they have engaged in the bust
ness of transporting passengers
between New Iberia and Nor
gan City. Some weeks ago, we
mentioned that as soon as the
gravel roads were completed to
Lafayette, St. Martinville and
Loreauvillc that they intended
to extend their route to include
those towns. This will make
New Iberia practically the hub
for Southwest Louisiana. Since
this car line has been in opera
ton it has been quite an acquisi-
ton and an aid to our business
houses. Shoppers are brought

MISS MABEL LEBRUN IN
JURED IN AUTO ACCT
DENT.

On Sunday morning last while
en- route from Lafayette ant
when reaching Scgura Station
Miss Mabel LcBrun met with g
serious accident, having hcl
Jaw bone broken as well as
other cuts and gashcs ncccsSl.
taiing the removal of small
bone from her check. The Other
parties in the machine were
more fortunate, receiving only
slight bruises. How all OF the
occupants in the new StudcbakcI
! were not killed or injured is d
miracle. The car was driven by
her sister, Mrs. A. r. Ncazcy OF
| Lafavcttc and Mrs. Ncazcy's two
children. Jerome and Della
were riding on the back seats,
and they had just crossed one OF
the concrete bridges on the
newly made gravel road when
the auto struck the loose gravel
and began skidding. Mrs. Yea
zcy then lost central of the Stcar-
ing wheel. the car with its oc-
cupants going down the en-
bankment and turning turtle
Fortunately the car fell in such
a way that the children were en-
ablcd to crawl out. Miss Lc-
Brun and Mrs. Veazcy were pin
toned underneath the machine
for twenty minutes before help
arrived. When the car was
lifted off of the unfortunate vic
Tins it was found that Miss
Mabel was seriously injured
about the face. Fortunately a,
this time DR.. J. w. X. Shaw ar
rived on the scene and later DR.
Pharr of Segura and they took
charge of Miss LeBrun and
brought her to the New Iberia
Sanitarium. Mrs. Veazcy sus.
tanned only minor injuries and
the children were unhurt. The
accident caused great excite
mcnt in New Iberia when it was
reported. Miss LeBrun is thc
rural school supervisor of LIZ
fayette parish and is held ir
great esteem by the people OF
that parish.

FIREMEN'S BENEFIT.

The members of Fire Co. No.
are arranging to give one ot
those novel entertainments
known as a Block Dance. A
splendid band of music has
been engaged and on the night
of Thursday. June I'd the lovers
of the terpsichore will have an
opportunity of patronizing the
fire department of New Iberia.
This Company deserves the sup
port of the people and from
what Mr.. Gilbert Kahn. the
foreman says. they are badly in
need of funds to replenish their
fire truck. 1t therefore be-
hoovcs everybody to turn out
and help in the worthy cause.
New Iberia cannot afford to be
without a fire department. The
fact of the matter is that when
the new administration is cleo
ted we hope TO see at least one
of the new Commissioners get
back of the firemen and not ONLY
see that they are properly
equipped, but lend assistance i'm
extending the department: SO
that the property holders will be
better protected. Much could
be said about the needs of an
active fire department i'm New
Iberia. We prefer however to
touch on this subject more ef-
fectively when the new Com
missiOners are in CHARGE of the
City government.

not properly written and she
then made her way to tn store
of Mr.. w. &. Disch. Upon re-

told her to go back and get
another. The girl answered she
would. In the meantime Mr..

Sheriff Landry was put on her

the girl could be unprecedented as
she was not even in the employ

FEWER DEATHS IN
DELAWARE IN 1920
But Wilmington Fatalities Were
Ten More Than in
Year 1919.

Official figures made public today by
the State Board of Health show that
there was a reduction of 200 in the number
1T deaths during 1920 compared with 1919.
The total number of deaths IN the State
during the year was S,251, which gives
the lowest death rate for years.
IN 1916 there were 3,743 deaths; IN
1917 there were 1879 deaths; in 1918
there we're 5,l02; in 1919, there were
3 ISL deaths: in 1920 there were 3,26l
deaths
Ir the city Of Wilmington there was an
increase of 10 IN tho number OF deaths
compared with the previous year, but IN
all the rural sections of the state there
was saving ofNifc In rural New Castle
count, there were 70 fewer deaths; in
Kent county there were AZ fewer deaths,
aad,n Sussex county there were % fewer
deaths
There were 665 deaths of oolored per
sons compared with 742 during 1919, and
there were > iS6 deaths of white persons,
compared with 2702 during 1919. The
deaths we're divided by sex rs follows:
Males. 1902; fcmases, 1,549. There Is
always n considerable excess of male
deaths compared with deaths of females.
The chief causes of death we're as fol

onterities, ,lS9; external causes, IFS.
OF tho deaths from external causes IL
were from suicide, of which IL were in
the city of Wilmington, and 10 were
murders, of which one-half were in Viii
mington. During 1919 there we're 20
suicides and Is murders.
The deaths from alcoholism during the
p ast five years are very intoresti " and
the conclusions arc obvious. During both
1916 and 1917 there were l5 deaths from
this cause, during 1915 there were five
deaths, during 1919 there were four
deaths and during 1920 there were but two
deaths from this cause
Taken as whole the figures for the year
show that the work of all of the health
agencies, both public and private, is
having its effect, and that within COM
paratively short time the Delaware death
rate should not exceed tho national
average. 1t now exceeds 1t by about l3
per cent
