IN MEMORIAM.
"GoNE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.

The subject Of this notice is
Mrs. Anna e. Mackey, a native OF
Mississippi, and for many years a
resident of Claiborne county, who
departed this life the 7th day OF
November, 1873, at the age of Ga
years. She was q consistent men,
Der of the Baptist church, and
labored faithfully and earnestly
for the Cause of Christ. She was
a friend to the poor, the widow
and the orphan; the sick and the
afflicted ever ready to lend a
helping hand to the needy. 1t is
said: the bad live, and the good
die. And to quote the scripture,
it might truly be said: "Well
done, good and faithful servant,
enter thou into the joys of thy
Lord"
May the turf keep green above thee,
Friend Of my earlier days,
None knew thee but to love thee,
None named thee but to praise

Photographing in Color.

The often stated "impossibility"
Of photographing in color, or OF
rendering in their true colors the
objects of nature by means Of the
camera, appears to have been turn
ed into possibility, thanks to the
indcfatigabie researches and ex.
periments of the distinguished
chemist and photographer, Prof.
H. W. Vogel. In a communication
made before the Physical Society
of Berlin, this investigator an
nounces that after years of expert
mentation, during which he had
met with partial success, as in the
production of the yellow tint, he
has finally succeeded in obtaining
also the yellow, the blue, the green,
and in a measure also the red,
with an apparent intensity to the
eye equal to the tints Of the origin
ais. The difficulty that has hith..
erto lain in the way of color rep
resentation is the circumstance that
the ordinary sensitive plate is af-
fected only by the more refrangible
rays, while the less refrangible re.
main imperative. Accordingly we
have produced very unnatural rep
resentatiOns of colOred objects:
shades of yellow and red, no mat.
ter of what brilliancy, appearing as
black, and the deepest shade of
blue, for example, as white. The
problem Of rendering the sensitive
plates susceptible to the less re-
frangible rays is that which has
attracted Prof. Vogel's attention,
and in it's solution, as effected
through the use of the substance
known as losine, and its various
derivatives, lies the secret of the
result as stated.-Philadelphia

THE MASS MEETING.

At meeting of the Parish Dem.
ocratic Executive Committee il was
resolved to call a mass meeting to
select delegates to the District Con-
vention. 1t is an opportunity pre-
sented, in which can be sunk oil
past differences and We can become
again, as in the past q united family.
There appears to be disposition
in some parts of the State to split
up, and it is not desirable that
Madison Parish should join in such
an unseemly movement. Let US
preserve our democracy, and fight
our little fight among ourselves.
We can't all get what we want,
and if We can't get it at home, We
can't get it abroad.
We have now a chance to come
together again, and the man who
will not take advantage Of that
chance, is a public enemy. Be on
hand everybody. and whnavA- eats
beat, let them accept defeat in the
right spirit. Come to the Mass
Meeting. and vote as you see fit.
II your favorite wins well and good,
if he looses, some ones favorite
has won, and to him be the victory.
The TIMES will support the nomi.
nee, if he is good democrat. That
is all that is necessary, unless he
is moral outlaw-a contingency
not likely to arise. Join in the
ray, and take what you can get.

A Calamity.

1t has been decided by tn,
Board of Directors of the Southern
Lithographic Company to suspend
for awhile the publication o
Figaro. This is not due to any
disappointment of their expecta.
tons as regards the paper. On the
contrary Figaro is now paying all
expenses and has before it as fat.
tering a prospect as any paper on.
ly six months old could very well
have. The simple truth is tina,
the increasing circulation and the
constantly growing demands OF
the paper upon the material and
machinery of the lithographing es.
adjustment are such that it would
be necessary, in order to continue
the paper, to abandon the legit.
innate business Of the Company.
This of course is out of the ques-
ton. The company was organized
and chartered for the purpose of
conducting a lithographic business
The shareholders subscribed to
the stock with that object in view.
And in any question between the
Newspaper and the photographic
branches ofthe enterprise, Figaro
most inevitably 60 to tho wall.
Very likely there will be some
to discredit this explanation, and
to assign the suspension to failure.

Scotch Collie Shepherd Dogs.

kind Of stock, and because worth.

their masters and thus are com.
PEELED to steal to get enough to eat,

killing in a single night ten times

carcasses. To condemn all dogs
as equally worthless is senseless.
All who have ever tried the Scotch
collie type Of shepherd dog will
never DO willing to be without one
if they have a place large enough
to keep a dog of any kind. It is
well enough to impose and to col.
lect a moderate dog tax. and no
owner Of good dog will object to
paying the tax /; if the owners of
the ours can not or will not pay
the tax, let their dogs be destroy
ed, offering a bounty for anyone
to do 30, for if they can not pay
they can not afford to keep dog,
especially when the dog has to
make reprisals upon the sheep
and poultry for what he needs to
eat.
In every reasonable thing
Scotch collie is sure to give the ut.
most satisfaction, and when
farmer has stock to be driven to

place, good collie will be found
invaluable, while they can also
soon be taught to herd poultry,
keeping them off certain places on
the farm. One of our collies we
taught to keep the poultry off the
front yard and flower beds. 1t
took us but q little while to teach
him, and ever after, without any
attention on our part, he would
not permit them TO 90 over the
line. If they did, out they would
come in a hurry, and this without
any injury to the fowls. He was

NJ Lake died very suddenly
in Reno yesterday morning. Mr..
Lake came to this coast in early
days and engaged in mining in
California, and during the Winter
of 1880 came to this State and
located at what is now the town Of
Reno. He owned and built the
first toll bridge across the Truckec
river at that place, and in the flush
times of the Comstock it was a
source of great revenue to him. At
the time of his death he was pos
sessed of considerable real estate
in Washoe county, and was worth
from $780, 600 to $500, 900.

A Good Paper Gone.

Good newspapers are SO few and
far between that the death of one
| is as much to be regretted as when
a good man passes to the majority.
The San franciscan has suspended
publication. 1t was managed by Joe
Goodman and Arthur McEwen.
These men had great ability and
plenty of experience and beside
this an honesty and sincerity of
purpose which no one denied.
They ran a paper that could always
be read in the family circle, yet
it was as incisive and outspoken
in dealing with currentquestions as
one could wish. It was a shame
that paper bearing the impress Of
so much common sense, fearless
ness and vigor should be allowed
to die in a field where newspapers
built upon blackmail and redolent
of cowardice, evasion and drivel,
were Aourishing. The San Fran
ciscan was inaugurated to make
war on humbugs, and in a city
teeming with that class Of people
how could it expect to live. It
made light of the pretensions of
shoddy society and society refused
to patronize. 1t warred against the
c. p. r. r., and the men who were
clamoring for. such a journal to
champion their wrongs congratulate
ing the editors upon their venture
and wished them God speed-but
declined, from prudential and parsi-
monious reasons, to put up a dollar.
The San franciscan managers
learned from bitter experience that
the masses Of down-trodden and
plundered people do not want an
organ to champion their wrongs, un-
less said organ is willing to bear the
brunt of the fight and do the work
for nothing. Go into a great city
and champion the peoples cause
and see how soon they spit upon
