SUSSLIE CASE DECIDED, STATE ABOVE CITY IN HEALTH LAWS. The Supreme Court Monday handed down many decisions, one of which is of special interest to Algiers. In the case of the State Board of Health vs. A. 8usslln, the court decided the im- 6E portant issue of whether or not the IA board is possessed of police power within the city of New Orleans, and A held that it is. The State Board of 8 Health took out an injunction to keep 8A the defendant from operating his bak- Tc ery on the grounds that he was not- complying with the sanitary regula- tions of the board. The defendant moved to dissolve the injunction on the ground that the State Board of Eu Health was without power in the city Ge of New Orleans, and that the City me Board of Health was endowed with the abi police power to regulate bakeries and ha other industries of that character, and tio that the State Board of Health had e only supervisory power over the city. Judge Skinner heard the matter on a Th role to dissolve the injunction and dis- ed missed it, holding that the State Board me could not regualate a bakery within the v, ely. The board, which was represent- the ed by its attorney, B. T. Waldo, then pex appealed the matter to the Supreme p Court, which on Monday decided the A matter after having had it under con- ter aideration for some time. The court hos with Justice Alfred D. Lemd as the or- the gn of the court, said that Act 98 of e 1~90 conferred on the State Board Ja- e riadictiona over the sabject matter of ov the sale, manufacture and inepection' A of food, and that this legislation is not Her repugnant to the eonstitutional provi- wife s-in giving to the electors of the city M. of Ndr Orleans the right to ehoose The those ofeers rested with police power. Nol The coaurt, therefore, remanded the wif ease to be tried on the merits. The 4, jdgSment ends a case that has been Rob ftouht with ach abiity on both sides,~ and that has atrtrted the attention of the membera et the )ar. The defed- at wa ~rer y W M. 0ha. WASTE LANDS OF LOUISIANA. L Last week, before the Lumbermen's Club of New Orleans, Ex-Governor - Jared Y. Sanders delivered an address on the "Waste Lands of Louisiana." o The address was characteristic of Mr. Sanders, being couched in simple but 0 forceful language, and was an eye-opener to many of those who heard him. r The speaker went on to show the vast wealth that lies dormant in our waste . lands, and that whatever effort is being made to develop and reclaim these lands has its source in Northern and Western capitalists; the monied men of Louisiana are making little or no effort to reap any of this rich harvest. Mr. Sanders laid particular stress on this lack of local interest, and bade our people to awaken to their splendid opportunities. All that the ex-governor said is very true, and is particularly applicable to our little town of Algiers. All around us are rich, fertile lands, waiting to be reclaimed and made to yield abundantly. The only real expense is the cost s of reclamation, for once ready for the plow they will yield for years without the aid of fertilizer. Indeed, the ex-governor quoted an Ohio chemist as de- claring that the soil of our lands was a fertilizer in itself, and would bring large returns if sold as such. The opportunity is here, right at our door. Shall we wait for the North- ern and Western capitalists to seize it and reap the rich reward, or shall we ourselves get busy and devise a means to develop these lands with local cap- ital? No investment could be safer; every dollar put into these lands will bring two and three-fold returns. Mr. Sanders cited instances where some of this reclaimed land had increased a hundred-fold in value! The wonder is that our bankers and capitalists have sat idly by while the Northern and West- ern men were getting such splendid returns on their investments. As far as Algiers is concerned, in the cultivation of these waste lands lies the making of a great city of what is now but a district of the City of New Orleans. Algiers has just as much harbor front as the city side; can offer every facility to the big railroads, and is therefore an ideal manufacturing and distributing center. Reclaim and cultivate these lands that lie at your door, and you have begun an era of unprecedented prosperity. When these lands begin to yield their bounteous crops, then shall Algiers assume the position she deserves; she will become the distributing center for all this produce, and the railroads and steamships will recognize her as such and court her favor. This is an opportunity that has been knocking at our doors for a long time; don't let it slip away. Algiers Improrvement Association, get busy! Talk this matter over among yourselves. You have nothing to lose, but all to gain. Your dollars invested in these lands are as sure to bring returnrs as if put into gold bonds-and much greater returns at that. You gentlemen have shown an energetic spirit and great local pride thus far. Plunge a little, now, and you will never have cause to regret it. MERRY CHRISTMAS. Before another issue of The Herald comes into your hands, Christmas will have come and gone, and we will be well on the last lap of the old year. At this time of peace and good will, a time made holy by the sufferings of the Child of Bethlehem, we can look back through the past days and weeks and months, and feel grateful that we have been spared to enter into the struggles and strifes and joys of another year. The Herald feels particularly grateful, and in the spirit of the times, thanks all its friends and patrons for their loy- alty through the past year. It is our sincere wish that your Christmas will be a most happy one, and that the New Year has only blessings in store for you. BELLEVILLE SCHOOL. The Belleville School has been hav- ing some general review work, the re- I ports of which furnish some very in- teresting matter for thought. First, in point of time, was an arithmetic test I for accuracy and speed, in which were twenty-four problems, involving the correct addition, or subtraction, multi- I plication or division of integers and I iractions, comomn and decimal. This was given in each departemnt by the I principal, Miss Harte, the children be- ing told to begin at No. 1 and to solve a in succession as many as possible in I the ten minutes. The papers, graded c and averaged, gave the following: r 5th B, 2.66 problems solved per pu- pil; 7, highest number, by Shirley Schroth. 5th A, 7.5952 problems solved per pu- | pil; 14, highest number, by Ethel b Lauft. 6th B, 6.8484 problems solved per 1 pupil; 13, highest number, by Ruth P Munsterman. 6th A, 10.6919 problems solved per pupil; 15, highest number, by Alice ii Gayaut. n RESULTS OF THE FIFIH ANNUAL SPELLING MATCH. 0 I-0 I. yD.

Just S blossoming into womanhood, Miss Cor- F coran gave every promise of a life of usefulness, and her untimely death a has left a void in her home which can L never be filled. Born in Algiers just per twenty-four years ago, she was edu- A ma cated in the public schools, where her H record was truly an enviable one. In per addition to her other accomplishments n tt she was also a talented musician. She 0 was of a bright and Jovial nature, and bt. her lovable disposition, always spread- Z Id ing happiness and sunshine, won for s4 .ng her many friends, in whose sorrowing E up hearts her loss will be keenly felt. in Miss Corcoran passed to the Great an- Beyond on Thursday, December 5th, . and was laid to rest in Greenwood St. cemetery the next day. In addition to Ith her grief-stricken parents who sur- nd vive her, Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Corcoran, 1( de, she leaves also a sister, Mrs. Blanch- D ne ard, and a brother, Arthur Corcoran.

Terrebonne at 441 8eguin e, street. Mrs.. W. P. Short and Mrs. ap Jules Judlin appeared to protest de is against granting the permit, being oP1 el o, posed to any more saloons in the m neighborhood. P. The questioning of Mr. Newman He r, brought forth the assura~ce that Ter- Ne rebonne, who now conducts a saloon bu n opposite the site applied for, would da discontinue his present establishment, ful and as twenty-seven of forty-five pro- det perty holders had signed a petition in ani favor of the saloon, Mr. Newman de- to clded to report the application favor-. bo ably. Mr. Newman declared that it would ma be the policy of the Department of Public Safety to limit the establish- I ment of saloons, and protests would 191 be given consileration, unless there is Br good grounds for not doing so. an 'NEGRO ESCAPEL S As Detectives Pord and Coyle were Ha walking to the corner from a house at anl 1606 Teche street, one day last week, a with a negro, Hugh Roa whom they had arresated asu suspected of bhe ear p robberies i McDoueghvlle amd Oretf InS, the Megro strnek Detactls lrd the bead and , ,eae.

SUSSLIE CASE DECIDED,

STATE ABOVE CITY IN HEALTH

LAWS.

The Supreme Court Monday handeddown many decisions, one of which isof special interest to Algiers. In thecase of the State Board of Health vs.A. 8usslln, the court decided the im- 6Eportant issue of whether or not the IAboard is possessed of police powerwithin the city of New Orleans, and Aheld that it is. The State Board of 8Health took out an injunction to keep 8Athe defendant from operating his bak- Tcery on the grounds that he was not-complying with the sanitary regula-tions of the board. The defendantmoved to dissolve the injunction onthe ground that the State Board of EuHealth was without power in the city Geof New Orleans, and that the City meBoard of Health was endowed with the abipolice power to regulate bakeries and haother industries of that character, and tiothat the State Board of Health had eonly supervisory power over the city.Judge Skinner heard the matter on a Throle to dissolve the injunction and dis- edmissed it, holding that the State Board mecould not regualate a bakery within the v,ely. The board, which was represent- theed by its attorney, B. T. Waldo, then pexappealed the matter to the Supreme pCourt, which on Monday decided the Amatter after having had it under con- teraideration for some time. The court hoswith Justice Alfred D. Lemd as the or- thegn of the court, said that Act 98 of e1~90 conferred on the State Board Ja- eriadictiona over the sabject matter of ovthe sale, manufacture and inepection' Aof food, and that this legislation is not Herrepugnant to the eonstitutional provi- wifes-in giving to the electors of the city M.of Ndr Orleans the right to ehoose Thethose ofeers rested with police power. NolThe coaurt, therefore, remanded the wifease to be tried on the merits. The 4,jdgSment ends a case that has been Robftouht with ach abiity on both sides,~and that has atrtrted the attention ofthe membera et the )ar. The defed-

WASTE LANDS OF LOUISIANA.L Last week, before the Lumbermen's Club of New Orleans, Ex-Governor

-Jared Y. Sanders delivered an address on the "Waste Lands of Louisiana."

o The address was characteristic of Mr. Sanders, being couched in simple but0 forceful language, and was an eye-opener to many of those who heard him.

r The speaker went on to show the vast wealth that lies dormant in our waste

.lands, and that whatever effort is being made to develop and reclaim theselands has its source in Northern and Western capitalists; the monied men ofLouisiana are making little or no effort to reap any of this rich harvest. Mr.Sanders laid particular stress on this lack of local interest, and bade our

people to awaken to their splendid opportunities.All that the ex-governor said is very true, and is particularly applicable

to our little town of Algiers. All around us are rich, fertile lands, waiting tobe reclaimed and made to yield abundantly. The only real expense is the cost

s of reclamation, for once ready for the plow they will yield for years withoutthe aid of fertilizer. Indeed, the ex-governor quoted an Ohio chemist as de-claring that the soil of our lands was a fertilizer in itself, and would bringlarge returns if sold as such.

The opportunity is here, right at our door. Shall we wait for the North-ern and Western capitalists to seize it and reap the rich reward, or shall weourselves get busy and devise a means to develop these lands with local cap-ital? No investment could be safer; every dollar put into these lands willbring two and three-fold returns. Mr. Sanders cited instances where some ofthis reclaimed land had increased a hundred-fold in value! The wonder isthat our bankers and capitalists have sat idly by while the Northern and West-

ern men were getting such splendid returns on their investments.As far as Algiers is concerned, in the cultivation of these waste lands lies

the making of a great city of what is now but a district of the City of New

Orleans. Algiers has just as much harbor front as the city side; can offerevery facility to the big railroads, and is therefore an ideal manufacturing anddistributing center. Reclaim and cultivate these lands that lie at your door,and you have begun an era of unprecedented prosperity. When these landsbegin to yield their bounteous crops, then shall Algiers assume the positionshe deserves; she will become the distributing center for all this produce, andthe railroads and steamships will recognize her as such and court her favor.

This is an opportunity that has been knocking at our doors for a longtime; don't let it slip away. Algiers Improrvement Association, get busy! Talkthis matter over among yourselves. You have nothing to lose, but all to gain.Your dollars invested in these lands are as sure to bring returnrs as if putinto gold bonds-and much greater returns at that. You gentlemen have shownan energetic spirit and great local pride thus far. Plunge a little, now, andyou will never have cause to regret it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.Before another issue of The Herald comes into your hands, Christmas will

have come and gone, and we will be well on the last lap of the old year. Atthis time of peace and good will, a time made holy by the sufferings of theChild of Bethlehem, we can look back through the past days and weeks andmonths, and feel grateful that we have been spared to enter into the strugglesand strifes and joys of another year. The Herald feels particularly grateful,and in the spirit of the times, thanks all its friends and patrons for their loy-alty through the past year. It is our sincere wish that your Christmas will bea most happy one, and that the New Year has only blessings in store for you.

MISS KATIE CORCORAN.

be The Grim Reaper has again laid its Iou. heavy hand upon one of the fair young F

women of our city, and has taken fromthe midst of her loving family and t

p friends, Miss Katie Corcoran. Just Sblossoming into womanhood, Miss Cor- Fcoran gave every promise of a life ofusefulness, and her untimely death ahas left a void in her home which can Lnever be filled. Born in Algiers justper twenty-four years ago, she was edu- Ama cated in the public schools, where her H

record was truly an enviable one. Inper addition to her other accomplishments n

tt she was also a talented musician. She 0was of a bright and Jovial nature, and

bt. her lovable disposition, always spread- ZId ing happiness and sunshine, won for s4.ng her many friends, in whose sorrowing E

up hearts her loss will be keenly felt.in Miss Corcoran passed to the Greatan- Beyond on Thursday, December 5th,

. and was laid to rest in GreenwoodSt. cemetery the next day. In addition to

Ith her grief-stricken parents who sur-

nd vive her, Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Corcoran, 1(de, she leaves also a sister, Mrs. Blanch- Dne ard, and a brother, Arthur Corcoran. Ied re

TERREBONNE GETS PERMIT.

thdeCommissioner Newman held his first M

public hearing Wednesday of last week hiwhen he considered the protest against tthe application for a saloon made by mI Charles D. Terrebonne at 441 8eguine, street. Mrs.. W. P. Short and Mrs. ap

Jules Judlin appeared to protest deis against granting the permit, being oP1 el

o, posed to any more saloons in the m

neighborhood.P. The questioning of Mr. Newman Her, brought forth the assura~ce that Ter- Ne

rebonne, who now conducts a saloon bun opposite the site applied for, would da

discontinue his present establishment, fuland as twenty-seven of forty-five pro- detperty holders had signed a petition in anifavor of the saloon, Mr. Newman de- toclded to report the application favor-. boably.

Mr. Newman declared that it would mabe the policy of the Department ofPublic Safety to limit the establish- Iment of saloons, and protests would 191be given consileration, unless there is Brgood grounds for not doing so. an
