cusing me of what really | never did. |
did report, however, that ''there were
many rumors afloat that Pearl Blodgett
add Luman Moves were behind the bars
at San Francisco for selling Esquimaux
women in Alaska to the Russians +" and
this statement is true, if ever made
true statement, as was told by as many
different persons. BY bringing this fact
before the public feel have shown
better feeling towards the two men than
l could have done by keeping silent, for
now il has been refuted and the people
will know more aud think less.
In regard TO the water being shut of
from the U. 5. Screen Co., can only
say thar | could vouch for the fact that
the water was shut off from more than
one paying citizen for eight davs, which
was not necessary, and as it was report
ed to me that they had done the same
thing to the Screen Company, | had not
the least doubt but what they did. |
have no grudge against the water board
and do not suppose they know when or
how long water is turned off.

''Suffer the little children to come unto me-"
She is gone, dear little Bette,
Gone the golden streets to roam;
Only lent to me from heaven,
God has called the wanderer home.
Softly came the angels whisper,
From that far-off land OF rest,
"Come to me;" her spirit answered
Little Bette, thou art blest.
Who can still the ceaseless longings
For the little sunbeam hedf
Hearts are cold and chill without it.,
And the world seems dark and dread.
Once the pretty childish prattler
Lisped sweet music all the day,
Now with sad heart, vainly listening.
Thou canst only wait and pray.
Pray that He who knows our sorrows,
And who binds the broken heart,
May the JOY religion bringeth
To thine inmost soul impart.
Then, while thinking Of the lost ones,
And how dear they were to thee,
II around thee shadows darken,
Heavens beacon light thou1t sec.

We make the following extract
from an article written by that
gifted lady and enchanting writer.
Catherine Cole, which is well worth
the careful perusal of our readers;
Each woman ought to be care
full how she undermines Q mans
opinion of her sex. A jealous.
waspish, mean-spirited woman, who
belittles other women to her hus-
band or sons, who calls attention
to our failings and follies, is delib-
erately lessening her hold on them
and the quality of their respect
| for herself
There are men with knightly
hearts who are chivalric in their
regard for all women. These would
certainly defend a forlorn drunken
creature falling in gutter, with
all the sweet and pathetic loyalty
/ of poor Don Quixote, and 1t goes
hard to see such man lose faith
| in woman. It is like the bloom on
the grape, like love in the heart,
once lost it is gone forever. A

Hon. Edward J. Gay, member OF
Congress from the third district,
died at his country residence near
Plaquemine, during the afternoon
of Thursday, May 3Oth. Mr.. Gay
was the wealthiest man in Louis
lana at the time of his death, and
perhaps one of the best liked men
among a larger circle of friends and
acquaintance than any other man
in the State. Having been per-
sonally acquainted with the de-
ceased in our boyhood days, it has
been a pleasure to US for thirty
years to watch the course OF this
christian gentlemen, who, although
many times a millionaire, had his
breast full of the milk of human
kindness, and was always ready to
extend the hand of help or friend
ship to those in need of succor,
and withal was 90 plain and matter
of fact and without show of conde-
scension that he won friends al
every turn in life, and bound them
to him by the ties of esteem anc
friendship. He was regarded bs
rich and poor alike, whether the.
met him as equals in the parlors o
wealth, or were employed by hin
in the meanest mental capacity
Having firm hold in the hearts Q

the arches became gorged with the
debris of houses, and, piled up |
mountain high, men, women and
children were ground and crushed
among the timbers, or else burned
in the immense funeral pyre that
was kindled amid the wreck.
Pathetic incidents are reported
by the hundred-of women placing
their babes upon some structure
too frail to float both and calmly
folding their hands to sink beneath
the murky food, trusting to an all
merciful God to save their helpless
child; of groups of women and
children huddled together on hoat-
ing house tops, with hands tightly
clasped together, and their pale,
terror stricken faces turned to the
shore in mute appeal for help that
could not be given; of strong men
who fought their way heroically to
the very shore, bearing some loved
one in their arms, only to have
their hopes cruelty dashed by q
swirling whirlpool dragging both
down to certain death.
Amid such scenes as these, where
all was suffering and horror, it does
seem that nothing but pity could
, be found in the breast of any be-
, ing bearing the human form. Yet
strange to say there were brutes
found with hearts 80 black and
; souls SO mean as to rob the dead,
and the next morning and during
, the day, while the waters were re-
I ceding and the dead were being
recovered by hundreds, several in
, human monsters we're caught IN
! the fiendish act of robbing th.
9 dead. 1t does us good to RECORD
4 the fact that in every instanc'
where these brutes we're caugh
. they were hung to the nearest liml
