BROUSSARD WANTS CON
GRESS TO BRING AFRI
CAN ANIMALS TO
LOUISIANA.
Washington, March 21.—Repre
sentative Broussard's plan for the
importation into this country of
wild animals from Africa to be
domesticated and furnish addi
tional food, was explained at
length today at a hearing before
the agricultural commi ttee of the
House.
The most unique scheme which
has been advanced in yejir.s, if
appealed to the committee im
mediately and is destined to ex
cite world-wide interest. On ■ of
the f rst results of the adoption
of the liroussard plan by Con
gress would be the removal to
the forest* and bayous of Louisi
ana of a variety of African ani
mals suited to that climate, which
would prove of enormous value
to the Slate.
Mr. Broussard has introduced a
bill providing fof the removal here
of a large variety of Air.can ani
mais, iind an appropriation of
$250,(WO for that purpose. The
hearing today was on tl.s meas
lire and so deeply is the commit
tee interested that a favorable re
port is anf < ipated.
Congress üiii ii Broux-ard, Cap!.
Fitz Diiqucstt« and Major F. R.
Burnham told the committee about
the scheme. Duquesne is the
great African hunter. lie is a
Boer. Burnham is an American
and a former officer in the Brit
ish. army in Africa. Tlir animals
which it is proposed to import are
•to be placed on reservations and
public lands in localities best suit
ed to them and where domestic
animals won't live.
The animals are useful as f >od
and as beasts of burden.
Among the animals well suited
to America, the committee was
told, are the white rhinoceros, the
water buffalo, the eland, many
species of the African antelope
family, camels, the hippopotamus,
water buck, etc. Practically all
of these, it' the bill passes, would
be transplanted in the Louisiana
forests.
Especial interest attaces to ihe
project at this time because of th
Roosevelt hunting trip in Africa.
One of the animals which it is pro
posed to import into the United
States is the famous Audrac speci
men! of the antelope family killted
by Roosevelt, the "dig-dig",
whose curious name has caused
miuch amusement. The small an
imal is especially suited to New
England.
"The hippopotamus could be a
boon to Louisiana," said Repre
sentative Broussard to the com
mittee. "They are natural dredges
and would clear'the streams and
bayous of that SiiJ.e J oin the
water tollies now infesting them,
which impede navigation, and
cause an -expenditure of thou
sands of dollars annaully in an
attempt to get rid of them. The
water lilly is the natural food of
the hippo. This beast is doc. le
and easily domesticated.
. "In Louisiana there as $6,400,
000 acres of marsh lands and
3,000,000 acres of swamp lands.
Here the hippo, the water buffa
lo, wator buck and other Afri
can animals would thrive and be
profitable.
"The Ivippo weighs 1000 lbs.
at birth and gains 100 pounds a
month. The flesh forms excel
lent food and one animal would
give from 7000 to 8000 pounds of
dressed meat. The hippo would
not require lands needed for the
support of domestic animals.
Their hides are excellent and their
fat, used in making the fine;*
grades of soap, is the purest in the
world. I) is estimated that in a
few years the Southern States
would produce 100,000,000
pounds of delicious, nourishing
hippo meat every year."
Mr. Broussard said that he had
received h s figures and esti
mates from Prof. W. N. Irwin of
the Agricultural Department.
Prof. Irwin addressed the commit
tee in favor of the Broussard bill.
The two African hunters told all
about the project, its practicabil
ity and cost and gave an inter
esting account of animal life to
Africa. No proposition has caus
ed more interest in the capital for
years."

\t a meeting in New Orleans
recently Governor Sanders spoke
of a plan to traise money for the
proposed Panama Exposition at
Orleans. Among other
things he said :
"I understand liiere is a meet
ing to welcome us back) home.
''It is not my intention to dis
courage the peoplb of Louisiana,
but I believe the best way to ac
complish a thinir i* by plain talk
and speech. What was done in
Washington was nothing. There
is not a man who went to Wash
ington who is not firmly convinc
ed that we can get the exposition
if we want it. Other cities want
it. 1 believe it is perfectly true
it hat if a vote Were taken in Con
gress as to where Congress would
prefer to have the exposition that
there is no doubt New Orleans
would win over a ! competitors.
There is no doubt the president
of the limited States would rath
er sign that bill than any other.
But if we want it we've got to
make up our minds to pay lor it,
"Delegations to Washington
and jollification meetings on the
reinrn will not do it.
"We have the site. We have
the logical point, but what we've
got to do if we make up our minds
to have this exposition, we've got
to go down in mir pockets and

Neuralgia
Pains
The shooting, tearing pains of neuralgia are caused
by excitement of the nerves. Sciatica is also a nerve
pain, o
Sloan's Liniment, a soothing external application,
stops neuralgia pains at oncc.cjuiets the nerves, relieves
that feeling of numbness which is often a warning of
paralysis, and by its tonic effect on the nervous and
muscular tissues, gives permanent as well as immedi
ate relief.
One Application Relieved the Pain.
Mr. J. C. L ee , of iioo Ninth St.. S. E., Washington, D. C„ writes: —
" I advised a lady who was a great sufferer from neuralgia to try Sloan 's lini
ment. After one application the pain left her and she has not been troubled
with it since."

city one oftlie greatest on the
American continent. Every dollar
spent on this exposition will be
an investment that will return a
hundred fold to all the people of
the state.
"Time for talk lias past; the!
time for action is here. Every
parish, 1 believe, will join hands
'•<» get this 'exposition, not for j
New Orleans, but for Louisiana, j
There is but one way I know of !
to raise money and that is by tax-'
at ion. If you depend upon vo un
tary contributions the exposition
is an idle dream.
"As a business proposition sub
mit the question ito the people of
the state; let them pass upon it,
and say whether they want it and
'ire willing to pay for it.
"This is too bit; a proposition
to be shouldered upon any one
inan or any one organizations oi
he state,
"Do you want your state to
stagnate or do yon want it to ad
vance with the progress of the
times? Commercial organizations
of every city of the State must
take it up and educate their peo
ple, and finally it must be set
tled be^>re (tfce î>eople. 1 be
lieve the time has passed when
the people can be frightened from
a good enterprise by taxa: ion,
and I believe in this instance,
when properly presented to tlit;
people they will apro\> it over
whelmingly.
"Our Legislature meets in May
and whatever legislation is neces
sary must be presented and dis
cussed before that meeting. Let
the Legislature submit the ques
tion to the people whether they
want the exposition or mut.
"We who went to Washington
believe we can get this exposition
if we are able to say to the gov
eminent : 'We've done our
share; now you do yours.'
"Other cities and states can
and will offer more money, but
let us exceed them in spirit and
una mit.y of our effort. The
Lord helps those who he p them
selves. Congress, while not the
Lord, is willing to help those who
help themselves. That is what
we must do.
"We all take pride in our state,
and in this jewel that se>s on the
ban't of the Mississippi River.
Our people are awake all over I Iiis
state; t.iey are awak-, to our tre
mendous possibilities. Tie y feel
that the money spent in the de
velopment of this State wi'l be an
investment on which their chil
dren and grandchildren will draw
interest for a hundred years."
The governor's clear-cut expres
s i°ns ^ n d indorsement, and his
plan of raising the money by tax
ation was roundly applauded.
PROFITABLE FAD.
Poultry breeding has become a
fad in Lake Charles aud Jennings.
In the latter city you are not in
the social swim unless you have
a coop of chickens somewhere on
the place and in Lake Charles
they know more about chicken
pedigrees than they do about
bridge. In Crowley the only so
cial distinction connected with
poultry is the fact that it is prima
facie evidence that you are inde
pendently rieh f you indulge in
fried chicken or soft boiled eggs
for breakfast.—Crowley Signal.

NEARLY IN SIGHT.
Washington, March ;!<>. Ilal

ton scientists, and with favorable
meteorological conditngis will be
visible to I! . naked eye to night.
By early tie.\. week, it i> expect
ed, the eel« m ial \ isitor will be in
plain sight. It w .11 be'visi bie all
tlir nigh April and w ill be at its
brightest m May, tatiaiuin^ iits
maximum brilliancy un .May 1.
Those w ho des r. to have a look
at the come may do so by taking
up a position, »laveih it becomes
»lark, facing due - or h. Find out
Sirius, the ''dug star' low down
on the hori/ou on your lell-haml
Mdo. Take a perpendicular line
from this iiil you come to the
constellât :<'ii of I ieiuiiii, or "The
Twins," one above the other.
Midway brlwtvh tins, the comet
passed in October Lis;, going to
the right, on through the constel
lation of Taurus, to tin» two plan
ets Mars and Saturn, both high
up in the southeast. Planets do
not t winkte, aud, moreover, .Mars
is possessed of a disiiiii't reddish
tinge. The comet's path lays be
tween these two last named, and
the comet itself w II be found
some little distance to the right.
An easier way, probably, to find
Mars and Saturn will be to take
a line to the right from the top
star of I he Gemini, at an angle
of about 1"» degrees, till you come
to five little stars all clustered to
gether. These are the Pleides.
Continue the line at an equal dis
tance and you wi111 find the plan
ets in question. The above posi
iio ol the stars reters to the time
direct h it becomes »piite »lark. If
viewed, say, two hours later, all
the stars will have moved to the
right and Mars and Saturn will
be found s liking in the west.

BEST BUSINESS BOOSTER.
Now, when we all thorough'y
comprehend and realize that keep
ing money at home circulating is
what causes prosperity, then it is
certain that raising what we can
on the farm for home use, manu
facturing what we can for home
use and buying from homo people,
farmers and manufacturers, will
become the general custom and
then we won't need any booster«
for good business f»»r we will have

GREAT CHEMICAL STATE.
New Orleans, April 1.—Louisi
ana has been declared by Dr.
David Day, of the United Stat»;«
Geological Survey, who is at the
Grunewald Hotel, to have natural
resources that fit it for being de
veloped into the greatest center
for chemical manufacturies in the
world.
Dr. Day is here now on a pleas
ure t ri{» and he is the guest of
General P. P. Myles, but h»' has
previously made himself familiar
with Ihe geological formation of
the State, and with its mineral de
posits, and on this information he
I bases his belief in the pfissibility
of developing big chemical man
ufactories. Soda, sulphuric acid
an»l fertilizing products, he said,
would probably be the chief pr»>
ducts manufactured.
Throat
Coughs
Ask your doctor about these
throat coughs. He will tell
you how deceptive they are.
A tickling in the throat often
means serious trouble ahead.
Better explain your case care
fully to your doctor, and ask
him about your taking Ayer's
