her age She belonged to a family among
whom are instances of remarkable longevity.
Her mother, Mrs. Susan Parker, living near

was formerly of Della, but went to her present

hand loom and spinningwheel which were
operated by her mother over century ago,
and upon which she, until recently, manu-
featured cloths of unique design and beauty
for domestic use.
There are about one hundred tramps in
the Jail here. The expense for board alone
is forty dollars day, or $1,000 per month,
and considerable bill beside for constable,
magistrate and sheriff fees. There is some
thing wrong in the law or its administration
and it is time taxpayers look to their inter
est The Legislature is in session and now
is the time to act A law that is not enforced
is equivalent to no law. If the law is made
quate steps should be taken TO have legisla-

idlers. Work is the worst punishment, and
if hard labor were imposed upon them the,
