Thoughts ON travel:

OK the 9Th Of January, 1915, the Mis-.
sissippi river was forever freed by the
victory of General jackson, with his
little army of bsckwoodsmen, over col.
umns of veterans fresh from the Napo-
leonic battle6elds. 1t will be celebrated
at New Orleans this year by a grand
demonstration, the principal feature Of
which will be the distribution of over
$4,000 in cash, by the Louisiana State
Lottery Company, with tickets at only
two dollars each. The plan is published
in another column, and a letter addressed
to NJ. A. Dauphin, postofice bex SOP,
New Orleans, will receive immediate at.
tention. The memory of the illustrious
Andrew jackson is as popular today in
New Orleans as Generals Beauregard
and Jubal A, Early, the commissioners
of the lottery.

mystery as { whether he deliberately
committed suicide By jumping off

running down grade al the rate Of ten
miles an hour. The most reasonable
supposition is that he had a strssk Of
emotional insanity in his veins and had
long contemplated suicide. Mr.. Mon.

The AccldenI to Fanny DavsnpOr..

Ehs Accident TO Fanny Davenport.
Detroit Tribune, December Ill
The accident sustained by Miss Fanny
Davenport, in the second act Of Vesta.
at the Detroit Opera House, last Satur.
day evening, proved much more serious
than at first anticipated. When made no
for the aged blind woman, "Postbumia.'
Miss Davenport wears a pair Of false
eyes, painted upon transparent material,
but thick enough to obscure the vision
somewhat, and in falling, after the pro.
nuneiation Of the curse upon the High
PontiH, she miscalcnlated the distance
and her face struck the stage with terrific
force. The blood spouted from her nos.
trils in torrents, and dyed her hands a
deep crimson, but Notwithstanding the
terrible pain, she retained her presenee
OF mind, shifted her position 80 that abe
could rise with her back 10 the audience.
and the action Of the play was not seri.
ously impeded. When she -rsappeared
later, in the screen scene from School
for Scandal, her nose and forehead were
painfully swollen. In this connection n
may be remarked that Miss Davenport
has had enough Of Vesis, and announces
that she will never play 10 il again.
