Live Meeting.

A live and we'll attended meet
ing Of the Association Of Com
merce was held at the city hall
last Tuesday evening, it being the
regular meeting. The minutes Of
the previous meeting were read
and approved. The Ways and
Means Committee, or Finance
Committee reported progress,
and stated they would complete
their work as early as practica-
BILE. This brought up a discussion
in which the President teak occa-.
sion to criticise the committee for
the long tame taken in accomplish
ing its work, and the committee
being his creature he felt thas the
delay might be placed on hts
shoulders, This caused censfdera
hle discussion.
It was decided to rescind the ac-
tion previously taken and the
quarters rented on Third Street
were ordered released and head
quarters and office will remain at
the town hall. The President was
authorized to pay for all bills con-
tracted in the proposed change.
1t was further decided that as
soon as the committee securing
funds, makes it's report, that
the amounts donated and the paI.
ties donating will be pab4sAed IN
the local papers, Vt wilt thus be
qtuMn, just who contributed, and
Whe did not, and to what extent
the different contributors help
in the advancement and work Of
the organization. This suggestion
was unanimously adopted. Quite
a neat amount was contributed,
most of which was paid, the lar
gest contributor so far being the
Bank of Lafourche for $100.
1t was voted that it be under
stood that it was the sense of the
/ Association that it was opposed
to the proposed move to discon-
tinue connection by. the Thibo-
daux branch with the train Nc
l ON the Southern Pacific at
Schriever and the association ask
ed the town officials to take the
matter up with the Railroad and
insist on the road living up to its
contract with the community as
to meeting all trains, and that if
relief was not there secured, to
push the matter before the Public
Service Commission. 1t was fur
ther suggested that the Commits
sion be sked to hold the hearing
on the question u tAlS town. 1t
was further urged that the Trans
portation Committee of the Asso-
eiation and a special committee
of three attend the hearing
wherever held, to oppose the
move.

SWindling; Fake Solicitation
Winona, January 30.-A young man

died numerous WInona women on

soliciting falsely for Golfers Weekly.
Baldwin arrived in Winona Wed
nesday afternoon. He applied at the
Association of Commerce chambers
for a permit to solicit subscriptions
for the paper, but, being unable to
produce credentials, his request was
denied, Secretary &. A. Bolton said
today. The secretary informed the
young man that he would wire the
Collier distributing agency at st. Paul
to make certain that he was an au-
thorized solicitor and that upon re-
ceiving satisfactory reply, permit
would be granted.
Baldwin, however. police said to-
day, went Immediately into the resi-
Dental districts of the city and began
his solicitations. Extravagant club
offers are purported to have been
made some housewives at ridiculous
prices and with only the initial pay
ment of 81. How many women sue
cumbed to the tempting offers made
BY Baldwin, authorities here were
unable to ascertain today.
Late yesterday afternoon Secretary
Bolton received a reply to his inquiry
stating that the Collier company had
no authorized solicitor named Bald
win and that all solicitors for this
magazine should be able to produce
proper credentials.
Police here were requested to ap-
prehented the suspect swindler. but
late last evening it became apparent
that he was no longer in the city.
