DiED-On Friday, October 21st,
1884, at 7:3o, p. M, in New Or
leans, Mrs. Z1ppoRAH DESoLA,
aged 81 years, native Of the Is
land of ST. Thomas, West Indies.
The above named lady was the
mother of our fellow-townsman, b.
II. DeSola, and had resided in the
Crescent City for the past twenty
seven years. She was buried on
at 9 o'clock. We sympa-
thize with Mr.. DeSola in this sad
affection which has befallen him.
and tender our kindest words of
coincidence.
SO rapidly has grown the pop
llarity of Mrs. Geiger, as a MILL
ner and dressmaker, and so much
he demand for her goods, that she
las been compelled to engage an
extra number of seamstresses toll
1elp her in her dressmaking depart
nent. This in a small Town like
mrs is remarkable, and only shows
lie benefit to he derived from treat
ng patrons with the kindest civil |
". 1t connection. with this we
would say that is truth that can
lot be denied, that Mrs. Geiger is
10Th courteous and polite in the
'xtreme, and tries at all times to
,lease those who visit her store.

Tue citizens of Shreveport at
a public meeting held on the asd
inst, condemned in unmeasured
terms the recent high-handed out
rage aud gross violation Of law
"celnmenced in that CITY and con-
summated in the hours of night in
Bossier Parish" The matter re-
ferred to is the recent lynching of
one John McLane. A committee
of five citizens was appointed to
ferret out the perpetrators of this
dastardly deed, and resolutions de-
mandatory of the crime were passed.
Our Caddo friends have but taken
step in the right direction, for
when such open-handed violation of
our laws is INDUCED in, it becomes
the duty of right minded citizens to
act, and that too summariiy. Such
acts of barharity tend in a way to
do more harm in a civilized coun-
fry than the worst Of pafics or the
most dread Of diseases, and should
be stopped tho the heavens fall. Y

George Stephenson, unable to read the
alphabet till he waafghteen, working in
the coal pits for sxpence a day. and
mending the boots and patching the
clothes of his fellow workmen, in the
evening to earn few extra pennies that
he might attend night school, is good
illustration of what a poor and ignorant
boy may become. Never idle, never
above doing the commonest work, never
an ale drinker, as was the custom among
miners, he showed the fine quality of his
nature by giving the first money which
he ever earned, one hundred and fifty
dollars to his blind father, that he might
pay his debts.
When he became an engineer and pro-
jected a railroad between Manchester
and Liverpool, the people said, ''He is a
mailman! His roaring steam engine
viii set the houses on fire with its sparks,
the smoke will pollute the air, and car
riage-makers and coachmen will starve
for want of work. The excitement fol-
lowing his public proposals, was intense
For three days he was questioned by a
large committee of the house of com
mons This was one of the questions:
eff a cow gets on the track in the way
of the engine travelling ten miles an hour;
will it not be an awkward situation"
Very soberly answered George Steph-
enson, but with a twinkle in his eye:
Eyes, very awkward, indeed, for the
coo!'
The government inspector said that if
ever a locomotive went ten miles an hour,
he would undertake to eat stewed en-
CINE wheel for breakfast. Stephenson
Rocket" a clumsy engine, but won
der at the time, and now to be seen at the
Kensington Museum, made the trial trip
at the average speed of fourteen miles an
hour, so the inspector had the opportuni-
ty of keeping his promise.
During the next ten years, being en-
ployed in opening up railroads in every
direction, Stephenson became wealthy
and renowned, the friend of Sir Robert
Peel, the owner Of large country seat,
and the pride of England. He declined
the honor of knighthood. His famous
son, Robert, said of him. "His example
and his character made me the man
