THE STORY HOUR.

As much interest as ever is mani
tested in the Story Hour at the Wo-
mans Clubhouse which take place ev-
cry Saturday afternoon from 4 to 5.
The board Of managers hope to have
this become a continuous activity and
if cooperation is given by parents in
the city it will be thoroughly estao-
lished. The ten cents admission goes
toward the running expenses Of the
clubhouse.
One of the biggest attractions Of
the clubhouse was the Mardi Gras
story hour last Saturday. More than
$50 maskers were present, varying
in ages from IS months to IA years
and mothers, daddies and friends were
there, too. A king and queen and
their royal party led the grand march,
taking seats on their throne arranged
upon the stage. The little maskers
marched up in two's and bowed to
them, while Mrs. Leroy Gilbert play
ed the grand march. The king was
Master Rob Harris, the queen was
little Miss Marie Louise Burnett.
The pages were Fred Stearns, Claude
ID. Smith, with Mabel Booth and
Gwendolyn Thomas as maids.
Il prize was given the best masker
both among the boys and among the
girls. Charles Ducheim as George
Washington and Shirley Williams as
a golden butter fly were the winners.
Others of special mention for their
lovely costumes were Elizabeth Stat
ford, Juliette Bonnet, Doris Smith,
Katherine Barrow, Pattie Foos, and
Master McMahon.
The royal party and guests were
entertained with fancy dances by Hell
en- Werner and Elizabeth Stafford,
Mrs. Gilbert playing for them. The
game of pinning the nose on the big
mask on the wall was amusing and
first prize was awarded Gladys Red
den, BOBBY, Inez Dupuy. The pro-
gram was in charge of Mrs. J. A.
Anderson, who was especially aided
by Mrs. G. A. Waterman, and others
assisting were Mines. J. A. Tucker
Geo. Foos, c. H. Rice, C. E. Coates
Rufus Jackson, R. A. Stafford and L.
u. Babin.

Catherine Hays and Anna Bishop,
world famous, who were thought to
rival that wonder in the world OF

While little more is left of the
original hotel than outside walls ana
while inter-mural arrangements are
more elegant and convenient lots OF
history is connected with the ancient
inn. Romance and tragedy, merry
peals of wedding bells and mourntul
dirge of funerals have announced
each happening within the ola walls
War, too, laid destructive hands upon
the historical premises and many
hero has strutted through its corrl-
doris. the Mexican war officer with
his plumes and gold trimmed unl-
form. the confederate in his tlnselled
suit of gray and the blue clad Fed
eral have all sheltered beneath Its
roof but the most prominent OF all
was the hero of Buena Vista, General
Zachary Taylor, twelfth president OF
the United States, who was an hon
ored guest upon his return from Mex
leo while awaiting renovation of his
residence at the barracks.
At the close of the Civil War the
hotel was opened again for the en-
tertainment Of the public but owing
to the impoverished condition of the
people it did not pay its expenses and
it was not until Grouchy, Senior,
leased the place and the Capitol had
been restored to Baton Rouge that it
began to prove remunerative.
The names of the ancient place of
entertainment for the stranger with
in our gates has been changed sew
eral times. It has been in turn Har-
ney Hotel, City Hotel, Grouchy Ho-
tel, Commercial Hotel and last but
most promising Of all from a mod
en and pecuniary standpoint now the
"Louisian." May it flourish like a
green bay tree and may its new
proprietor meet with the success that
should come to all who provide a
place equipped and managed in accord
with advanced ideas and the spirit Of
the times for the accommodation Of
guests.

new HOTEL THROWS
OPEN DOORS HERE

The Louisian, the new hotel under
the personal supervision of Mr.. H. A.
Michel which has just opened its
doors for the accommodation of the
public is unsurpassed by any hostelry
in the State in elegance of furnish
ing, modern appliances and the very
latest method of interior construction
and arrangement. The opening Of
this most modern hotel has solved
the problem of housing local and
transient patrons in the most up to
date and comfortable manner and
has met an imperative demand for
more accommodations just when most
needed.l
There can be no just complaint OF
lack Of accommodation hereafter as
the "Louisian' alone is amply pre-
pared to meet the requirements OF the
public at present and for many years
to come.
It is not the intention of Woman's
Enterprise to furnish description OF
"Louisian's" interior arrangement but
rather to congratulate Mr.. W. P. Con-
nell for providing a hotel worthy OF
the Capital City thus giving evidence
of the lively interest he takes in a
community of which he is a prom
inent and most valued citizen.
The building itself is OF a most
solid and substantial construction
erected about 1S4S preparatory to the
meeting of the first legislature to
assemble in Baton Rouge and was
named Harvey Hotel in honor Of botb
General Harvey who earned his mil
itary laurels by fighting and subdulng
the Seminole Indians and his broth
er, Dr.. Harvey, one of the most pop
ular and most beloved citizens OF
Baton Rouge in his day.
The "Harney" was operated by the
owner for some times, but in 1852 Mr..
William Markham became lessee and
conducted it most satisfactorily and
proftably and under his administra-
tion it became popular resort for
elite and wealthy visitors on business
or pleasure bent. Those were days
of brilliant social functions and the
"Harney' was noted for the grand
fancy dress balls held in its hall,
which at one time covered the entire
second floor from stairway to Lafay-
cite street side.
Concerts and shows were also giver
in this ball room and among the
many notables appearing on its dimin'
utive stage were the prima donna
