On our last trip to the city few
days agO,in passing through Gretna,
we were pleased to meet and become
acquainted with Mr.. Henry Peters,
the genial clerk of the popular mer-
chant and saloonist, Mr.Toby Freld.
We are indebted TO Mr.. Peters for

On Wednesday morning last, our
parish was startled by a rumOr cir
culated that our friend, Mr.. I.
VOisin, the energetic chief deputy
sheriff of st. John parish, had died
of cholera. Several of his friends
in this parish went with the speed
of Maud s., to the telephone,only to
find il false rrmor. We were
pleased to /, aru that it was onl y a
joke, but don't take Il hand in such
jokes.
The rice planters from all parts
of our parish, are complaining very
much concerning the scarcity OF
hands to take off their crops. Every
day we can see laboring men loung
ing around store galleries play Ing
dice, while others are lying in a
drunken stupor. We are informed
that planters have offered as much
as $1.5O per day, still they can't gel
Hands. There is no excuse for sucl
dleneSS, as the hands can get al
the work they want at very soot
price.

THE MANUFACTURE OF AGRICULT
URAL IMPLEMENTs,

he editor of the Mechanical News, of
New York-Mr Quincy A. Petts--has
been figuring from the tables of the tenth
census, showing the facts and statistics
pertaining 10 the manufacture of agri-
cultural implements in the United States.
Mr.. Petts discovers that 'the production
OF agricultural implements is carried on in
the United States on an enormous scale,
not only because the farming interest in
America is of vast extent, but because the
special attention given in this country to
supplying machinery and tools for farm
ers has led to demand all over the world
for American products of that kind l."
The three leading States u this line of
industry are found to be Ohio, first,
and then Illinois, and then New York.
Ohio has SIG, III SIG OF capital thus in
vested, employing an average of 1921
hands, paying S2,9sl ,O65 in wages an.
nually, and using 81 ,243,326 worth of
materials. Illinois has sll 800, 955 and
New York $3.50 O09 OF cap tai invested
in this industry.
OF the capital thus employed in Ohio
nearly thirty-fve per cent, or more than
one-third, is credited to Clark county (rbe
city OF Springfeld), the exac. figures b +.

Queer Notions.
,eds it.

A writer in recent issue of the
North China Herald discusses the early
Chinese notions of immortality. In
the most ancient times ancestral wor-
ship was maintained on the ground
that the souls of the dead exist after
life. The present is a part only of hu-
man existence, and men continue 10
be after death what they have become
before it. Hence the honors accorded
to men of rank in their lifetime were
continued to them after their death.
In the earliest utterances of Chinese
national thought on this subject we
find that duality which has remained
the prominent feature in Chinese think
ing ever since. The present life is
light; the future is darkness. What
the shadow is to the substance, the
soul is to the body; what vapor is to
water, breath is to man. By the pro-
cess of cooling, steam may again be-
come water. and the transformation of
animals teaches us that beings inferior
to man may live after death. Ancient
Chinese, then. believed that, as there
is male and female principle in all
nature. day and night as insepara-
BILE from each thing in the universe as
from the universe ITSELF so it is with
man. In the course of ages. and in the
vicissitudes of religious ideas, men
came to believe more definitely in the
possibility of communications with su-
pernatural beings. In the twelfth CEN
| tury before the Christian era it was a

The jackson style OF halr.

A venerable looking gentleman from
Highland county stepped into the bar
ber's shop of 7. G. Campbell, of this
place, few weeks ago. After casting
his eye around the establishment as
though to measure its capacities and
facilities, he asked the proprietor
whether he had ever seen picture of
Gen. jackson. An affirmative reply
was given. He then asked if Camp
bell had ever noticed the way General
jackson had his hair reached. The
reply was that he had ''Well, do you
think you could cut my hair in like
fashion," YES" was the reply.
"Well, sir, il you can give me roach
of the Jackson kind l will let the job
to YOU" "Very WE'LL" MIR. Campbell
said, and the Highland admirer of the
jackson roach squared himself in re-
clining chair for operations. When
he raised his hat it was found that the
top of his head was perfectly bald
