Tn Memoriam-,frs. .rann,s issss,

The subject of this brief sketch was
born In Bangor, Wisconsin, September
II, 1866, and there she spent the happy
years of her childhood and youth. She
was reared in the atmosphere of Chris
tian home, and as she grew in years and
in stature she'grew in grace and in the
fear and admonition of the Lord. When
thirteen years of age she made public
profession of her faith by uniting with
the church, of which she remained u
faithful and exemplary member to the
end of her life. She possessed sweet,
sunny and sympathetic nature, which
endeared her to all with whom che came
in contact. In 1882 she removed with
her parents to Nortonville, California,
and three years later to San Fran
cisco, where she was united in
marriage to Mr.. w. j. Rees, June I'd,
1887 About one year ago her health
began to fail, and last August, in the
hope that a change of climate would re-
store her to health, she came to Los An
geles to visit her friends and sisters,
and be where her mother could take
care of her. But that hope was des-
tined never to be realized, for after a
prolonged struggle, she succumbed to
that grim destroyer, consumption, and
at noon of Monday, May 4th, 1891, she
quietly passed away, surrounded by ali
the family except her only brother, j.
f. Hughes, who was unable to be pres
ent. The funeral took place from the
family residence, No. 843 Hemlock
street., at 2 O'Clock p. M, Thursday,
May 9TH. The Rev. DR.. Russell,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, conducted the services,
which were solemn and impressive.
His earnest words OF sympathy and con-
ISOLATION, and the beautiful passages of
scripture which he quoted at the open
grave, touched the hearts OF all present,
and were indeed as balm to the sorrow
ing hearts of those who felt keenly the
loss they had sustained.
Selections from the Gospel Hymns
were rendered at the house by quar-
tet from DR. Russell's church. At the
grave the Welsh friends. who were pres
ent, sang in feeling manner that grand
old Welsh hymn, "Bydd Myrdd Ry-
feddodau," which was a favorite with
the deceased, and which has brought
consolation to many a sorrowful heart.
After the grave was filled it was literally
hidden from sight by the profusion of
beautiful flowers wrought into appro-
pirate designs. which had been donated
by sympathizing and loving friends.
The living returned to theirhomes, but
Jennie was left in beautiful Evergreen
cemetery, there to rest until the last
trump shall sound, and the dead who
die in the Lord shall arise triumphant
and glorious.

little daughters, father, mother, sisters

We have undertaken in the adjoining column
to briefly detail the difference between the old
time Potash Sarsaparillas and Joys modern
Vegetable preparation of Sarsaparilla. To
illustrate more clearly, wepresent the follow
ing testimonial:
81 had for years spells Of Indigestion. Finally
took one of the leading sarsaparillas. 1t not
only did not help me, but caused pimples to
break out on my face. This, was told, re-
suited from the potash it contained. Hearing
that oy's Vegetable 5arsaparilla was a later
preparation, that it did not contain mineral,
and acted differently, sent for it, The pimples
disappeared almost Immediately and have
not since had any return of the old debilitating
spells.

The above cut fairly illustrates the compare
tive action of the Potash Sarsaparillas and
joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla. An increase of
pimply eruptions marks the use of Potash.
Their gradual disappearance attends the use Of

took one of the other sarsaparillas more erup-
tions broke out on your face 1t was simply a
Potash Sarsaparilla every one we know of
except joys, contains potash) joys being the
latest and most modern preparation, is the
only one that avoids potash and its unpleasant
features.
Instead of creating more eruptions it removes
them. 1t is therefore the best for pimply skins
and spring humors, and is almost infallible In
ick-headaches and constipation. two common
troubles that the Potash Sarsaparillas do not
attempt to reach.
Joys is the most modern the most agreea BILE
to take and the most effective.

The Rice Crops.

Before the war most of the rice 10
the United States was grown ia
North and Sonth Carolina and
Georgia, while now the production
of Louisiana alone amounts to double
all Of these put together.
The estimated production of clean
rice this year is for Louisiana $780,
600 barrels, North Carolina 25 600
barrels, South Carolina 100000
barrels. Georgia 10000 barrels max
ing the aggregate.525 900 barrels.
The total rice consumption of the
country is now about 800 900 bar
rbels and the deficiency between that
amount and the total Domestic pro-
duction has to be annually supplied
with importations Of Foreign.
Even making the most liberal al.
lowance for variations in demand,
there is still a great difference be.
tween our production and known re.
quirements, which fact ought to en-
able planters to get fully as much as
the cost Of importing equal grades
in foreign.

For the week ending Oct. 8, 1891.
The temperature and sunshine
have been above the average during
the past week. A slight deficiency
of rainfall has prevailed throughout
the State, except in the northwest
portion where heavy showers oe-
Cured.
Nothing neweregarding cotton is
to be CLEANED from the reports;
heavy rains ind the northwestern
parishes did some slight damage to
the top crop, bat reports from other
sections are uniformly favorable.
The crop is being picked and mar.
keted az rapidly as possible, and the
staple is claimed to be Of better class
than last season. Caterpillars are
numerous in central Louisiana, but
are doing no harm; on the contrary
they are eating the leaves and rem
der picking easier.
The condition of, the cane crop,
to which attention at this date is
mainly directed, ID fully covered by
the correspondents, who report a
wonderful Improvement in the out,
look. The cane growing in black
lands, and naturally that Frustrated
by the high winds, of last week, does
not present 80 favorable as appear
ance, but even is these instances the
plant has a good color; and promises
to reach a fair stage Of growth. 1t
can safely be said of the crop that
it is in every respect more thrifty
and promising than two weeks ago.
But very little grinding is being done
yet.
The rice harvest is nearly fnished;
fne weather has prevailed during
the harvesting season, but the gen.
eral yield has been poor.
The minor crops, potatoes, peas
and turnips. have been revived by
