By degrees the settlement grew, until in 1728 there was sufficlent semblance of a town scattered along this path to justify Bien- ville in locating the capital of his colony there.

His glass-topped wheel- barrow, with {ts innumerable drawers full of spools of thread, laces, needles and other small articles, was erstwhiles familiar sight in the French quarter. The shrill horn of the “bottle man” is still heard there, though not as often now as formerly. He is usually & negro with a little hand-wagon, partly filled with trumpery jewelry and partly with old bottles. His business is to trade the one for the other, and he executos an splitting fanfare onh his tin horn to sum- mon the children of the nelghborhood, his chlef customers, to trade their old bottles for his glittering but valueless stores. Few of the old mulatto vendors of rice-cakes and pecan candy survive; and the volumin- ously-fat old turbaned mammies who used to sit in pleturesque rows along the side- walk, in Canal street near Royal and Bourbon, selling boutonleres of violets from vast, odorous hampers, have disappeared altogether. One may still see, however, the death no. tices tacked to the telegraph poles on the street corners. This is a dlstinctive New Orleans custom. Whenever a member of a French speaking family departs this lite the fact is printed upon a small squarc of black-bordered paper and tacked about the town on poles wherever friends or ac- quaintances are likely to see it. These notlces always close with fhe announce- ment of the hour and place of the funeral, at which the “friends and acquaintances are prayed to assist” Nor has New Or- leans lost the pretty, reverential custom of lifting the hat whenever a man of the Catholic faith passes a church of his de- nomination. New Orleans is the one American city which has supported a French opera com- pany year in and year out for over 100 years, Beginning towards the close of the eighteenth century, with rather humble performances by gcompanies ‘of singers trom San Domingo, the opera has grown village disappeared fn 1720, which once surrounded it has been cleared away, and one of the most thickly populated parts of New Orleans now spreads over this entire vicinity. The site of Blenville's country-house, which stood just beyond the walls of his little city, is covered today by a huge granite customs house, erected in 188, In fact, there 18 nothing left in New Orleans which Bienville would recognize, if he were to revisit it, save Jackson square, the old Place 'Arms and the present Archiepls- copal place. The former, bright with tlowerh, and with the bronze horse of Gen- eral Jackson ramping in the middle, has also changed somewhat since Blenville's day, but the venerable edifice which he constructed in 1727 for the use of the Ursuline nuns, survives to the present time, /| practically unaltered. Bienville induced the good sisters to come . to the colony from Krance to take care of the military hospital | which be founded, apd for their accommodation reared the stateliest mansion in his power. It remained the home of the order until 1824, ‘when. the sisters withdrew to a pleasanter location on the banks of the Mississippl, some three miles away; where- upon the bullding became the residence of the jarchbishops of New Orleans, These prelates actually live there no longer, but it continues the place where the business ofithe dlocese is transacted. As the oldest building in the Loulsiana purchase, and one of the oldest in the United States, it is of the deepest interest, especially as'it 1s In @ remarkably good state of preserva~ tion. The huge square cypress timbers, the deep-sunk windows with thelr leaded glass, the wrought-iron rallings and the worn oak floor are. those which were put in when the bullding was erected. YWhen - Loutslana was ceded ' to the United States In 1508, the transfer of the purchased territory was consummated in Cabillo, a fine old bit of- Spanish colonial architecture originally used as a meeting place of the councll which governed the clty in Spanish times, and now used by the supreme court of Louisiana.

Only a few months ago the United States government finished dard the shaft according to the original design. It stands today in @ pretty park—a mere fragment, however, of the battlefield. All around it are the freight sheds, elevators and switch tracks of a railroad terminal. The soil which Jackson so gallantly de- fended was acquired by the rallroad com- pany some years ago, after the natlonal government had been vainly importuned to purchase it ‘for a military park, and under the stern compulsion of the demands of commerce many of its most interesting features have been obliterated. Relatively few mopuments remain of the reconstruction epoch. The old Tulane hall, scene of more than one fierce battle be- tween the government do facto and the in- surgent people, was torn down some years ago, to make room for the new Tulane theater. St. Patrick’s hall, where General de Trobland dispersed the Wiltz legisl ture at the point of the bayqnet—was d. molished only & few months ago to make room for a new federal postoffice. The old Royal hotel, once known as the St. Louls, still stands in a state of pitable dilapidation, For a time this bullding was the state house and headquarters of the Warmouth- Kellogg-Packard government. In 1574 these tactions were besleged here for several months, and fightlng went on in and around the building for days on end; un- til the starving garrison capitulated. Be- tore the civil war the St. Louls hotel wa one of the show places of the city. In the dllapidated entrance hall may still be seen in importance and dignity until nowadays it is the barometer of New Orleans soclal lite. BSoclety is dormant until the opera opens, and when Its déors close on the first day of Lent the soclal” activities of the city come to an end. Theé opera house dates from 1850. It 18 a stately old bulld- ing on Bourbon street, in what was a very fashioriable Guatter when it “was built, but which 1s how fashionable i no respect ve for the existence theré of this fine old temple of the lyric art. Every year a company of singers arrives from Franc men and women who have made succes on the stage of Brussels, Lyons or Mar- sellles. Every year the standard repertory is repeated and then the artists dlsperse. Nor has a success in New Orleans ceased to be coveted by ambitious French sing- ers. Constantino began his American ca- reer here. On the stage of this old opera house Pattl sang In her glorious youth. There the elder Calve, Jenny Lind and & score of other celebrities have performed to delighted audiences. The social feature of the French opera is its chief charm for New Orleans. There are long intermissions between the acts. Then the men, in evening dress, make the circult of the glittering “horseshoe,” pay- ing thelr respects to the fair occupants of the boxes. There is no mere attractive scene in the United States than this old building on the night of some important production. When the curtain falls after first act the chatter begins iIn and “loge decouverte.” The es of young women, the sparkle of jewels, the fragrancé of flowers and the charm of feminine loveliness all com- bine to make the hour one of veritable enchantment. To Bee the opera house on such an occasion is to see New Orleans at its best—to see It as it llkes to be seen —and it leaves upon the beholder a lasting impression of the charm of this rare old clty. BY FREDERIC J, NASKIN, Tomorrow—Chewing Gum Industry. Comes Now South Dakota with a Rap Jobbers Ask for Freight Rate that Would Be Harmful to Omaha Wholesalers. South Dakota jobbing interests have ap- pealed to the state asking for a joint rail- way tariff, which, if granted, will work serious harm to Omaha jobbers, The hearing has been set for, March 24 at Sloux Falls, and involves the jobbers of that eity, Mitchell and Rapld City, espe- clally. C. E. Spens, general frelght agent of the Burlington route has b sub- poenaed as a witness. The South Dakota jobbers seek joint rates over the Burlington and Northwest- ern lines. If the rate is promulgated, it will mean that jobbers of the three cities can cater to the smaller stations of both | Hoes. C. H. Pickens of the Paxton-Gallagher company states that the rate would mean an injustice to local wholesale houses. The jobbers do considerable business In the territory close to Omaha, particularly in the Black Hills country MRS. WKELVEY BADLY HURT Sustains Injury to H Street Car Sta Allgi Before She Mrs. R. E.
