While in the na tional metropolis Messrs. Netter and Dal feres were registered at the Hotel Astor.

Flan dry, who recently severed his connection with that establishment.

Mr. Lafargue assures the public that the same high standard of service which characterized his establishment in its old location will be maintained in the new quarters, and all orders entrusted to his care will be given prompt and careful at tention and satisfactorily executed in every respect. Mr. Lafargue may be reached at any hour of the day or night through telephones 101 or 146-2. Chief of Police Henry Schaff, Sr., and Officer L. J. Acosta went to Plaquemine last Tuesday and arrested an Italian named Calafore Napole, a resident of that town, on the charge of having stolen goods in his possession, knowing the same to have been stolen. Thirty-two pairs of men's laced boots, which are alleged to have been stolen from a freight car of the T. and P. Railroad at this place, were found on Napole's premises. The boots were the property of J. F. Mauffrey, a mer chant of Paincourtville, to whom they were consigned by the manufacturers. Na pole was arraigned before Judge Edmund Maurin and was remanded to jail in de fault of a $300 bond, which, however, he subsequently furnished. The fall and winter goods purchased in the north and east by the buyers for the various local merchandise firms are be ginning to arrive in large quantities, and the Doialdsonville stores are putting on a busy air. The shipments include every thing in the line of wearing apparel or house furnishings that the average hu man is likely to need, and there should certainly be no occasion for any of our citizens to send away for their things. They can get what they want right here at home, and if the price is not quite as cheap as that quoted by the foreign mail order houses, it will be found to compare more favorably after the express charges on the imported articles have been paid. A fine baby boy made his appearance last Monday night at the home of,Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Messina, and the auspicious event is eliciting congratulations galore from the numerous friends of the proud parents. Mr. and Mrs. Messina have been married nineteen years and their union has been blessed with fourteen children six girls and eight boys-ten of whom are living. Mr. Messina is thirty-nine years of age, and is an enterprising and suc cessful contractor and builder of this city. The Chief. voicing the sentiments of the entire community, takes pleasure in ex tending Mr. and Mrs. Messina cordial con gratulations upon the latest addition to their family circle, and cherishes the hope that their children will grow up to be as useful and exemplary citizens as their es timable and respected parents, Death of Miss Sarah Labeuve, Miss Sarah Labauve, aged thirty-one years, died at the residence of her uncle, Prosper Plaisance, at Barton, on Thursday of last week,'the 22nd ult., and her re mains were transported to Convent and laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery at that place at 4:30 o'clock the following aft ernoon. Mr. Plaisance and his daughter, Miss Rose Plaisance, and Rufus Breitling, of this city, accompanied the body to Con vent and attended the funeral of the lamented young woman. Miss Labauve was a native of St. James parish, but had made her home with Mr. Plaisance and his family for a number of years. She is survived by her father, three sisters and a brother, all residents of St. James. The heartfelt sympathy of a wide circle of friends and acquaintances is extended to the bereaved family in their hour of grief, SUGAR SQUIBS. Optimistic Opinions and Pessimistic Proph esies on Cane Conditions in and Around Ascension-Hay, Rice, Corn and Weather Comment. The Louisiana Planter's Ascension let ter to appear in print today says: "The weather of the past week has been very favorable for all manner of crop interests. The usual September con dition of hot days and cool nights has prevailed, and with the exception of a flurry of wind Tuesday evening, followed by a drizzly rain, there was little out of the regular routine to record from a meteorological standpoint. Rumors of the coming of a West Indian hurricane aroused some apprehension that the wind and rain just referred to were the fore runner of the approaching storm, but the breezes soon lulled and the rainfall was quite light. "The Donaldsonville Rice Mill is still running full time and has been receiving large consignments of rough rice both by rail and river. It is reported, however, that the mill has stopped buying on ac count of the large stock on hand, and that the present season will be a banner one for the institution in point of number of sacks handled and in all other respects. The rice planters, as a rule, are parti cularly well pleased with both weather and market conditions, as well as with the quality and quantity of the harvest, but there are exceptions to the rule, some complaints being heard of small yields and unsatisfactory prices. "Louis A. Landry reports cane and rice in splendid shape in his neighborhood and thinks thisis going to be a banner crop sea son for that locality. Cotton, however, is backward and promises but poor results. Mr. Landry is to leave shortly for lower Lafourche, and is scheduled to run the pan of the Lockport Central factory, where a large crop is to be taken off. "Thos. D. Cox, Jr., of the St. Philomene place, adjoining Barton's St. Emma, states that his.cane and corn are both doing well and promise satisfactory results. "Robert H. Landry of the Lemann Com pany's Rodriguez place, adjoining St. Philomene, reports all crops there in en couraging condition, while the recent weather has been ideal for all purposes. Cane is doing exceptionally well on Rod riguez and Mr. Landry anticipates shav ing some best records pretty close. "K. A. Aucoin of St. Emma, one of As cension's most successful field marshals and factory experts, says that his cane is in Al condition and that he has never made a better corn crop in his life. He ex pects to make more hay than he can use, so if anybody cries, 'What's the matter with St. Emma?' the reply can be promptly vociferated, 'She's all right!' "Jno. W. Tucker,,the veteran manager of the Miles Company's New Hope planta tion, on the west bank of the river, is more than well pleased with the present cane crop, which he reports in fine condi tion. Corn and peas have not shown up so well and Mr. Tucker is not doing any bragging on these crops. He isn't one of the bragging kind, anyway, and that fact makes his favorable account of the cane conditions particularly gratifying. "Charles Vives has been enthusiastic over recent weather conditions, which he declares have been extremely favorable for the harvesting of hay and corn crofs. Cane in his neighborhood is in only fair condition. Mr. Vives leaves in November to boil sugar at the Santa Teresa factory in Cuba. "Chester R. Israel of Donaldsonville, who is presently with John N. Pharr & Sons as superintendent of their Orange Grove plant, will finish the season there and then go to Mexico to superintend the plant of the Hacienda San Gabriel, at Puente de Ixtla, owned by Amor Brothers. Mr. Israel reports cane in a most flourish ing condition at Orange Grove, and pre dicts a big crop for this season. "W. J. Thiry of St. Gabriel, Iberville parish, is quoted as saying that the rice planters of his vicinity are complaining of short yields and low prices. In a conver sation a few days ago between Mr. Thiry and Clerville Blanchard of upper Ascen sion, Mr. Blanchard stated that 'Things are bad for rice and rice planters this sea son.' This may be termed 'a minority report,' and it is to be hoped the rule of the majority will be made apparent in the results of the pending harvest season hereaway." Knights of Columbus Memorial Service. Ascension Council of the Knights of Columbus, following a very beautiful cus tom of the great Catholic order, held a memorial service at the Catholic church last Wednesday forenoon. The service was a requiem high mass offered up for the repose of the souls of the deceased members of the Council, and Rev. J. M. T. Massardier, the beloved chaplain of the organization, was the celebrant. The choir boys of St. Joseph's Commercial In stitute sang the mass, and also rendered most feelingly the exquisite hymn, "Lead, Kindly Light." A most impressive and edifying sight was the reception of the sacrament of Holy Communion by a majority of the Knights present, who ap proached the holy table in a body.

The sensation of the week was the an nouncement that Father Massardier had donated to the school, for the use of the glee club, a magnificent $400 piano. This generous gift will enable the school to have a very fine glee club, which will at intervals give some interesting sociables to the friends of the school. The debating club will be reorganized next week. Considering the success of last year's debates, there are expecta tions of some high-class discussions this year. Some of the older members have become seasoned debaters and have been trained to look up references with success and profit. The month's work mapped out at the beginning of this session has been success fully completed and the principal has begun the tests. These will be continued all next week in the different grades dur ing the principal's leisure. In the tests held this week the following pupils showed great proficiency: Rlfetoric, eleventh grade-Sam Richard, Hubert Richard, Richard Stakelum, Mike Wild, Leo Gaudin.
