Trail in Louisiana have been

locally in a long time was con-
summated Friday afternoon
when the Dauterive Furniture
and Undertaking Co., the larg-
est furniture concern in south
west Louisiana purchased the
building and lot now occupied
by their Lafayette house. The

resented a satisfactory profit on
the investment by the former
owner. the First National bank.
Negotiations were conducted by
Messrs. F. J. Dauterive and
Frank Dauterive of New Iberia
and L. J. Dauterive of Lafayette,
representing the furniture house
and Mr.. S. r. Parkerson of the
First National.
L. ]. Dauterive. speaking for
the firm of which he is a men,
Der, said Saturday morning that
plans now are being drawn by
an architect for thoroughly
modern brick building to cover
the entire lot. which is 5Ox15O
feet in size, and that there would
be no unnecessary delay In
getting the work started. The
new building will be planned
not only for the present, but for
the future, and will be equipped
with a modern sprinkling sys-
tenn for fire protection elevators
and ventilation equipment.

When Abraham Lincoln was
a young man, he ran for the leg

He next entered business, fail

his life paying up the debts of a

He was in love with beauti-

became engaged-then she died.
Later he married woman who
was a constant burden to him.
Entering politics again, he ran
for Congress and was badly de-

appointment to the United
States land office, but failed.
He became a candidate. for
the United States Senate, and
was badly defeated.
In 1856 he became a candidate
for the vice presidency and was
again defeated.
In 1856 he was defeated by
Douglas. One failure after an

he eventually became one of the

Washington Senators at the Polo

MIKE O'DOWD
BATTLES KING
In Main Bout at Newark Club
Tonight -Joe BaIint in
Prelim. Event

Tonight at the Newark Boxine
Club, Bank street, two healthy sons
of swat will wallop away at each
other, the winner to gain plenty In
the way of future engagements, the
loser taking his place on the side
lines. Mike O'Dowd, former mid
dleweight champion, who is battling
his way back to another try at the
title, will use as his stepping stone
Phil Krug. of Harrison.
Krug's rise has been so meteoric
that should he score by a knockout
it would be no genuine surprise.
When he stepped in the ring with
Lou Bogash one month ago he occu-
pied the position of the lamb being
led to the slaughter, as the fight fans
saw 1t. In that battle there was nc
doubt from the first ball, as far as
Krug was concerned, who would be
the winner.
When Krug meets Mike O'Dowd
he will meet a different sort of an
opponent than he did in Lou Bogash.
The ODowd person goes better
when the tide is against him. There
is no backing up on the part of the
Harp. He delights in the fast mill
ing. Krug will have to keep his left
hand working overtime to keep the
Mick from smuggling him all over the
ring. If O'Dowd ever gets his man
on the u it is sure to be a rough
voyage for the fellow doing the
catching, for Michael pitches a near
fight when he gets going at tor
speed. Viewed from all angles. the

] tizing. Both have a chance.
