years.
The deceased was native of Lismore,
County Waterford, Ireland, but came to
Rapides in 1913, and has Hsel a resi-

man, good citizen, skilled mechanic,
modest and retired in his department,
just and fair in all his dealings with his
fellow-man, he was universally liked
and respected by our people, and died
without having forfeited the esteem in
which he was held. His last sickness
was long and lingering-and being a
good and devout Catholic. he bore his
ills with all meekness, humility and
patience, which are the cardinal virtues
taught by his Church.

A disnateh from RipI.x Ohio

A dispatch from Ripley, Ohio. to the
Clucinpati Gassfe says: % Friday even
ius between ten and eleven o'clock, there
appeared between the heaven and the earth
almost a fac simile of one Of Raphael's an
gels. Though not Of full stature of we'll
developed human being, yet it was most
perfectly formed, and as white as alabas-
ter. The wings were outspread with arms
extended impioringly. and its evolutions
were as rapid and beautiful as bird, as
1t clrcled in mid-air. Over one hundred
and fifty of our best citizens, ladies and
gentlemen, were eye witnesses of this sir
gnlar spectacle, and gazed with admiration
and awe. The testimony of all who were
fortunate enongh to behold it is that there
was indisputable evidence that it was not
a female, although the form was as deli
cately moulded and the limbs as perfectly
rounded as the NEST perfect Eve that ever
came from under the chsel of sculptor.
Probably it can DO explained by some of
the scientists.
