An Enthusiastic Meeting.
A meeting of the Base Ball Asso
ciation was held Wednesday night to
dispatch some very important busi. Ac
ness which was pending. H. L. Gibbs
was elected manager and captain of
the team vice H. B. Dupre resigned.
Dr. T. A. Stark was elected presi. (I
dent, vice J. L. Basset resigned.
P. P. Delanne was elected Secretary
and Dr. O. L. Braud was elected 2nd
vice President. 1
The team has been organized anew
and expenses to a considerable extent fror
have been cut down. The Base Ball Nes
Association is doing all in its power Rai
to provide good games of base ball duo
on Sundaya for the amusement of efe
the people but so far has not met
with the proper encouiagement essen. pro
tial to th'- success of the work. Not. Hoi
withstanding an air of indillerence on be I
a seemingly adverse sentiment to '
base hall matters on the part of our at
people the Association has been
moved to make one final effort to nes
maintain and support our base ball (
team. diff
In order to pay the expenses of low
the team as it is presently composed
the gate receipts every Sunday must
be at least one hundied dollars. All er 1
that the association asks and in fact (
implores of the people is to come to Sat
these games. Within a radious of
three miles of the town can be found
a population of over ten thousand awi
people and surely out of this large of
population there ought to be four I
hundred people who are willing to this
see a good game of base ball every
week.
The ladies from now on will be Ski
charged no admittance fee and all 1
that the association expects of them an
is that they shall talk base ball and EBl
help the association in its efforts to
secure a large attendance at the park
every week to witness the base ball to
games.
We hope that the people of the
town shall become thoroughly inter
eated in base ball matters and shall
talk base ball, nothing but base ball, kil
base ball until good encouraging at- wa
tendance are secured at the park. is

Greys Again Victorious. ea
m.
A highly interesting game of base ro
ball was played at the park last Sun-.
day between the Smith Bros. of New th
Orleans, and the Greys whit h result- ,
ed in favor of the home boys by a
score of 7. to 4. Our boys played I
good ball and proved too strong for m
the visitors. Pierce was in the box m
for the Greys and pitched a fairly ,
good game. He was not at his best
but at any rate was too much for the
visitors. Robuchaun was in the box
of the 'klandues" and did some very as
clever work. Had he been given pro. a
per support the score would have
been much closer. The game was of
played in one hour and thirty mmi'
rtes and was much enjoyed by all rc
present.
Rooters Club. rc
A Rooters Club of about thirty g
member strong was organized last h
Wednesday night for the purpose of h
promoting and eneouraging base ball e
sport. One of the main objects of i
the club besides rootmng themselves ir
hoarse is to drum up a big attendance ic
., for the games whi Ii will be played
on our diamond this season. A mom
berahip between forty and fifty . b
desired. Each rooter is expected to
provide himself with a tin bore.
Suitable badges will be furnished the
members of the club and they will
march in a bo'ly to eaeh game and It
occupy a portiso of the grand stmnrl
which the Asmociatron will specially a
reserve for the club. C
We hope to see the membership of b
the club increased and we further
I desire to hear the Rooters root base
ball upon the streets as well as at the
d games. Let the good work be eon
a- tinued and the fight will soon be
'-won. We should have base ball,
i.we muat have base ball and we will
have base ball is the motto of the
Rooters club.

The Confederate Reunion recently
held in Dallas was very largely at
tended. It proved to be one of the
happiest gatherings in the history of
their assemblages. The people of
Dallas entertained the battle scared
soldiers in a lovely manner and didi
everything in their power to make
the welcomed visitors stay in their
beautiful city pleasant and enjoyable
in all respects.
The old e anfederate veterans woe
for themselves undying tame in the
struggle in defense of justice asat
the leadership of Davis and Lee will
ever be revered and honored by the
Southern people. It is not to resur
rect buried issues to awake the mem
ories of the past for the South loves
to dwell upon the deeds of valour
and prowess of her sons. It Is un
fortunate that they were perforneet
in a contest against brothers. but
they were none the less heroes and
worthy of rememberstee.
The South is loyal to the Undone
and will ever be, but it will sever
forget her sons who turnished such
brilliant pages to the annals of our
countrys history.
