This association was organized
September 8. 1887, this being its first
excursion. The committee ofarrange
ments were Messrs. Thomas M. Wells,
chairman, C. C. Piper, Martin Ernst,
Aug. Frisherst, W. II. Maier, Wm.
brand, 11, Mosen, It. Macardy.
The membership appeared to be
composed of good material, everyone
conducting himself properly. The
excursionists made their headquarters
in Firemen's Hall, where they enjoy
ed themselves dancing away the after
noon until the whistle of the cars no
tified that the time to return to their
homes had arrived.
The committee managed eveiything
judiciously, so that all left satisfied
with their visit.
The attempt to close the St. Mary
Pamela crevasse lately made has re
sulted in a failure to accomplish the
purpose. However, the flow of the
water has been greatly obstructed,
and, with a falling bayou the water
will soon cease to pass the breach
The people who were injured by that
unfortunate break have suffered much,
many lost, their entire crops, others a
part and some saved theirs only by
tiie use of pumps.
It may not be too late to make some
crops yet, and, the energetic suft'eieig
are determined to make the best of
their condition.

The overflow in the basin between
the bayous Lafourche and Teche lias
enabled saw mill proprietors to cut
and float immense quantities of tim

can cut lumber to supply their custom

The demand for lumber is good at

get to work they will be pushed to
supply the demand.
