have presence of mind enough to face rag
ing bull and look him straight in the eye he
is powerless to do you harm. We tried this
experiment once and found it worked adj
mirably. The fierce animal tore the ground
with his feet and beloved with all his
might; but something seemed to hold him
back like magic and he did us no injury.
Perhaps We ought to add, in order to be
correct historically, that the bull was on the
other side of the fence. We never try an
experiment Of that kind without taking the
proper precautions beforehand. --Nsso York

THE DIFFERENCE.

Only few more notes,
Only finer tone;
And 10! the world bows down
Before the singers throne.
Only the same old thoughts
Clothed with a sweeter sound:
And loi a poets brow
With laurel leaves Is crowned.
Only q finer ear,
Only swifter skill;
And lol the artist plays
On the human hearts at will,
Only tint or line,
Only a subtler grace;
And lol the world goes mad.
over woman's face.
Yet though so slight the cause
For which men call US great
This shade the more or less
May fix an earthly fate.
For few may WELD the power
Whose spells uplift or thrill:
The barrier fixed, yet fine,
We may not pass at will.

Andrew 8. HERON.
N. o. States, Oct. 81.

In presenting to the readers Of the
States this morning the likeness, aecom,
panied by a brief Biographical sketch, Of
Maj. ANDREW 8. HERON, we deem it a
fitting occasion to add our testimony to
his high moral worth, bis great personal
popularity aud his distinguished ability
as o man, a citizen, lawyer and states
nlan.
In these degenerate days of politics
when m%ediocrity, impudence and auda-
city are given preference we true
merit, unselfish patriotism and acknowl-
ed integrity, it is a sight as gratifying
and refreshing as the green oasis OF the
sandy desert to see an occasional tri-
umph of virtue and intelligence over
the plots and schemes of intriguers and
selfish demagogues.
In this State, as in many others, it
has not been the fortune of the people
to honor their best and most deserving
men with that distinction which their
claims and merits have justly entitled
them to enjoy, but which modesty and
self-respect deferred them from assert
ing or pressing. Thus it is that the
bold, INSCRIPTIONS and vulgar have
thrust themselves forward and imposed
upon the people by their impudent pre-
tensions and disgusting opportunities,
successfully attaining prominence and
achieving success in their political as
piratIons.
It is, therefore, a cause for rejoicing
and congratulation when such a man as
Major Heron is called by his people
and intrusted with their interests, hon.
ored by their confidence and elevated
by their favor to high positions in the
administration of the State and national
governments.
The name of Maj. Heron is o house
hold word in every parish in the State.
None know him but to love and admire
him. Always true and faithful; un-
wavering In his devotion thoughtful
and conscientious; straightforward and
honest, his whole political and personal
life has been n Of exceptional eonsis-
tency and beyond reproach or even sus-
picion.
1t is the duty of the people to heap
honOrs upon such q man and when the
Democratic party Of the Sixth District
nominated Andrew S. Herrsn as their
Representative in Congress they did
honor to themselves while paying a
deserved tribute to one Of the foremost
citizens in the State.
IL 10 hardly necessary to say that the
election of Major Heron is an assured
fact; mol to predict for him a brilliant
future and enviable record in the ma
tional halls Of legislation. His learn
ing, bis eloquence, his patriotism, his
experience and his high sense Of honor
and duty are sufficient guarantee that
in him Louisiana will have a repre-
sentative, whose presence in Congress
VIII be the proud boast Of the State that
has confided to him her good name and
her highest interests.

Road laws.

The economic advantages and elevat-
ing influences upon civilization of good
roads cannot be gain said. The ques-
ton OF good roads comes home directly
to every one. Good roads are of prac-
teal utility TO the farmer, the merchant,
the manufacturer, the professional man,
the laborer and the of leisure. II
would seem then that a matter of 30
much Importance TO all classes would
receive instant attention and secure
from the best minds in the country, a
plan that would result in the best kind
of roads. But il is not true. Year af-
ter year the same old system is kept up
In the South. just before q court con-
yenes the farmers and laboring men are
summoned from their farm and labor to
throw away from three to FIVE days in
/" working the roads, The boss or the
section, and the county road commits
sloners have little practical knowledge
of making q good read. The point to
be- attained is simply TO put the road in
such q condition that the Grand ,Jury
win not present it. The first rain af-
forwards the road liz almost i'm impossible.
The people are taxed TO but very little
profit. What is needed lie a Law that
will make good roads instead of half
way patching mp old ones very near
impossible. It would be far better to
levy tax sufficient to have good roads
made under the direction of q CONNIE
tent engineer. The fault is with the
people at last. They quietly sleep on
without taking action. The season Of
tho assembling Of legislatures is at hand.
and the people should be moving in the
matter of securing good roads. If a
general law can not be had, get one for
your county. The people of Putnam
county, Georgia, are a progressive Deo-
pie. They have perfected d road law
for themselves which they will AJAX the
next General Assembly to pass. The
provisions of the act are The election
OF q road inspector by the Grand Jury.
70 serve for one year, receiving q salary
0f $3.50 per annnm, giving bond iii the
suEa of $500 for the faithful discharge
OF his duty. He inspects the roads and
bridges Of the county and notifies the
ttcad Commissioners TO have the roads
worked when they require It. This Is 3
step n the right direction, but ii does
90 lar enough. An entire change
OF the present road Law is needed. Wei
will neyer have good roads until the
is changed.-SoutHeyp World.

Z Reproductive Comet.

The present comet in the Eastern
sky, which can be distinctly seen by
everyone at early morning, is certainly
the most remarkable zone Of all the
modern comets. Prof. Lewis Swift, di-
rector Of the Warner Observatory, Ro-
chester, N. Y, states that the comet
grazed the sun so closely rs to cause
great disturbance, SO much SO that it
has divided into no less than eight sep
arate parts, all of which car be distinct
ly seen by a good telescope. There is
only II other instance on record where
% comet has divided, that one being
Biella's comet of 1916, which separated
into two parts. Applications have been
made on MI. III. Fl. Warner by parties
who have noted these cometary Off
claiming the 5000 prize for each
one of them. Whether the great comet
will continue to produce a brood of
smaller comets remains to be seen.
