Adjatant General Allen Jnm«l and Oapt. W. D. Newbill of the U.S. Army visited our town officially last Thursday to inspect Company "G," of the Louisiana militia. Owing tc the fact that the visit was unexpected, not giving time for notification, but a small per cent of the Co. could be got­ten together, After inspection addres­see were made by Oapt. Newbill and Qen'l. Jumel, the essential points of the Dick Military LAW were explained :o those present, many seemed to mis­apprehend its provisions. In fact it was stated that while nearly all the other States seemed to fully under­stand the requirements, Louisiana alone seemed to be laboring under false impressions, or misapprehension as to the duties incumbent upon the men. The law provides that the militia of the States sliatl be subject to the call of the president to repel invasion suppress revolutions or riots, when the resources of the Regular Army have been exhausted. Much good ad­vice and information were given the men and they were very much edified and entertained thereby and showed their appreciation by marked atten tion. For some reason or other Com any "G" lias not prospered, or kept up its Esprit du Corp as it was ex pected, indeed it is a lamentable fact that while other towns throughout the State have large well sustained, and enthuisastic companies, attend ing to their duties, regularly and promptly, our Company is gradually running down and it is difficult to get the men out.

The necessity for better hotel accom­modations in this city has been pain­fully apparent for years, and while several attempts have been made to do something, they have all failed of materialization. We are pleased to announce that at last a practical plan has been pur into operation by which New Iberia may soon possess a fine Hotel that'will meet all emergencies that may arise. A number of pub lie spirited gentlemen have organized a pool to buy the Jackson property, corner of Main and Fisher streets, which has a frontage of 90 feet on Main street running to the Bayou some 300 feet. The plan is to pur­chase this handsome tract and offer the same as a bonus to any one who will erect a first class Hotel upon it. Our citizens have responded liberall}' and the requisite amount will soon be raised and the property will no doubt be conveyed to the proper parties within the next few days, when it is proposed to put it in the hands of the Progressive League to have the plans elaborated and carried to completion. Nothing will contribute more to our city's development than a fine modern commodious hotel. It will advertise us, it will give us prestige among the traveling men and public and will in­spire respect in all strangers who come here, and will also beget a spirit of pride and progress among our own people. With a good hotel lo­cated as centrally as the proposed site, New Iberia will advance and it will be the medium through which other much needed improvements will come, it will bring to us people who now pass us by on account of our poor accommodations. It will bring men of means who will look into the wonderful resources of this coun­try and secure their citizenship, and investments. In fact a good hotel is tlie vehicle through which much fu ture prosperity will come. We trust our people will give the move a whole hearted support. Other towns less favored are working in this matter and have generously taken stock and are building, and in some instances have completed their hotels. Alex­andria, Monroe, Shreveport. Crowley, and Lake Charles all have recognized the importance of this public utility, and have erected or are erecting ho­tels adequate to the needs of their cit­ies. A hotel such as is required for our needs will be followed by other public buildings. The Central High School and Industrial College will follow as a sequence. The Electric road from this point to the towns be­tween here and Morgan City will be a necessity and will be rapidly cou structed. Other interests of which we do not think of now, will be de­veloped and all consequent in a great degree upon the establishment of first class hotel. With all these self evident propositions, let our people get down to business and abate no­thing nntil the object is accomplished. One of our leading business men re­ceived a letter this week from a form­er Iberian who describes the movement for a hotel at Crowley, which has resulted favorably, and the same me thod can be used here. We print next week a cut of the proposed hotel, which will cost $60,000 and commend its careful scrutiny to our readers. Those who have subscribed for the New Iberia hotel site are as follows, which is a good showing, considering the short time the matter has been spoken of :

same time affording a multitude " of people a new aud unique diversion, the management of West End propose to inaugurate this summer a compet­itive rivai between a number of the non-professional brass- bands in the different towns of Louisiana and several adjoining states.

We propose to offer a number of substantial prizes to the bands adjndg-ed the best of those competing ? Tlie first prize wo are prepared to say will amount to $100. in cash to the band that is adjudged to be the first in rend­ering various selections. They will also be asked to prepare for a grand final evening of concerted music, wherein all tlie bands will render se­lections conceitedly. If feasible we propose to offer a prize to the best original musical composition (band arrangement) presented by a non-pro­fessional member of any of the bands competing. We anticipate the co­operation of the various railroads in the transportation of the bands.
