SCHOOL CHILDREN FREE.
Beginning January 1, all school
children will be carried absolutely
free on the ferries crossing any
streams in the state of Louisiana.
This law has been in effect for
some time, having passed the legis
lature at a previous session, but it
was not applicable to the Canal
street ferries, for the fact that
they were operating under a fran
ehise that had been acquired prior to
the legislative act. The franchise,
expiring on the last day of this year,
will compel whatever company that
is operating at Canal street to carry
all school children tree of cost. The
parents should remember this, as the
saving will amount to a great deal
during the year.

the result of being accidentally shot
in the left leg by Joseph C. Hunn,
27 years old, 725 Atlantic avenue.

stray dog at Diamond, La., Sunday
morning. The two men were on a e
hunting trip at the time of the acci-.
dent.
A stray dog attacked the hunting
dog of Burgdahl and Hunn. and both
men rushed in to fight off the animal.
Hunn's gun was discharged and the
contents lodged in the calf of Burg
dahl's left leg. Burgdahl was brought
to the Charity Hospital, where his
death was said to have been due to

"WELL" ON BEO TRACT.
While drilling for water recently,
a natural gas flow was tapped on the
Hero place, about four miles from

gas deposit a couple of thousand feet
below the surface. The "leak" was
tapped at a depth of 80 feet, the gas
escapes at a pressure of 70 pounds,
he said, and the capacity of the
"well" is about 1.200 cubic feet a day.
Mr. Hero insists that this Is mineral
and not marsh gas.

COURT REFUSES TO F
CLOSE MARKETS
Private Establishments Violating

Rules.
Judge Wynne Rogers denied the a
petition of Philip Foto to cmnpel the s
city of New Orleans to revok,- the. 1
licenses of all private meat markets .
within 3200 feet of a public market r
operated by him at Teche and Hlomer c
streets, the right for which he paid c
the city $13,157, he alleges.
In ruling against Futo, Judge Rog- d
ers sustained exceptions filed by the
city of no cause of action. lie cited.
a city ordinance covering the mat
ter, to the effect that the city engi
neer is responsible for issuance of f
permits for markets, and that the
engineer is "amenable to prosecu
tion" if he has issued such permits in v
violation of law. ts
Foto alleged there are twelve mar- d
kets within 3200 feet of the site h,,
leased from the city for twenty-five r
years. It is declared there are more
than 800 other markets in New Or- I
leans that would come under the
same ruling.
No date as to beginning or expira-;
tion of the period for which he leased I
the site for his market are given.
Judge Rogers pointed out In his de.
cision. He also called plaintiff's at
tention to the point that specific of
flcials of the city were not charged
a with violating specific laws, and de
clared that Foto adopted the wrong
course of action to obtain redress.
.In citing the ordinance governing
t the case, Judge Rogers said that -
l aside from responsibility of the city
a engineer in the matter, the operators
- of private meat markets within 3200
feet of public ones operated under a
franchise from the city were violat
