EARLY PEACHES.

The PROGRESS editor was agreeably
surprised Friday morning by the re-
ception of basket of fine early
peaches, the remembrance of our
little friend Miss Cal Hicks Daughtry
The sunshine of life consists in
such acts and tokens as this, and en-
mobiles mankind, being an expression
OF regard which one has for another.
Eternal Truth has declared that there
is no class of the human,creation but

edge that the love of another is be-
slowed upon them, and the transmits

What Are We DOing. .

No one is 50 small or Insignificant in
stature of body on mind but has a mis-
sion to perform in this world. All have
duties to discharge in assisting others
who are less fortunate. These tasks
are not always confined to charitable
acts in th,irgcnerIl sense. but il i none
the less obligatory TO render assist
ance, and the recipients are benefited
| thereby. though it may cost something
/ for the privilege. The man who makes
| it possible for those in reduced circum-
stances to buy the necessities Of life
cheaper than what they have been ac-
customed to pay for them is as much
public benefactor, and has really con-
tributed more charity than he who
opens his purse to the unfortunate in
digent.
However, this was not intended to
place ourselves in the attitude of public
benefactors, but to put the query to one
and all, what are you doing for your
town, country and neighbors: This
question from us demands statement
as to what we are doing and can be told
easily, and We are sure that it will be
a pleasing message to all. We have
placed the prices on our goods that defy
even the hard times. We have made it
possible for the man who earns only a
small salary and the woman who daily
sews for her living, to array themselves
in tasty apparel at price that even
their scant purse can stand.
We have a beautiful stock of goods. |

mend, and one that has ever before been |
sold at figures from 20 to 10 per cent

LOST, STRAYeD OR STOLEN.

Some time in March last there was q
committee OF ID of Shreveport's most
energetic citizens selected to secure
for us terminals of two very important
railroads that desired to come to our
city. How our hearts were buoyed up
with hope, for we thought that we had
selected the very pink and bloom of the
most far-seeing and enterprising men
of our city, and so we had, but they
have failed to materialize. What has
become Of them? We are becoming
alarmed is to their welfare. About
three months has passed by and no
tidings have been had from them. If
they have by some strange and unfor-
seen accident been lost. or through
some misdirected calculation strayed 10
some unknown locality we want to
know it. If our committee have been
spirited away by some desiging
combination who are jealous of our
thriving city We want to know it.
What a thrill of JOY would possess our
souls if we could have just one little
word of encouragement and knowledge
Of their whereabouts. What have
they done and, If anything, when will "A

CALLED HOME,

Death on his sable pinions has been
abroad again in our midst. His fore
runner made his appearance several
days before the lvent of Him whose
summons is inevitable. 1t was on
Monday morning last that Mrs. Lou
f. Castle was Frustrated by stroke
of paralysis. This affiictlon soon be-
came current news and ere the sun
had run his days course every man
sion, cottage and hut in our city
echoed the silent, painful whisper
Mother Castle" is sick unto death.
Oh, how the hearts of many an cne
in our town beat with tumultuous
throbs for the orphans who would
lose their best earthly friend, and for
the stricken one that her sufferings
might not be great.
From Monday till Wednesday night
did friends of the orphanage and the
good matron pass in and out of this
hallowed institution, on every lip
coming the tremulous query 'how is
Mrs. CASTER" The days wore on until
Thursday morning at Ills O'Clock
when mortality was translated into
Immortality and Mother Castle was
with her God. Aye, "safe in the arms
OF Jesus, her soul surely rests" now;
she has won the reward which the
Great God offers to those whose lives
are filled with deeds of mercy, kind
ness and self-sacrifce for Christ's sake.
Blessed are the pure in heart for
they shall see God.
Said our Savior, and our dear, good
friend, the sanity Mother Castle has
assembled the throne and presented
her claims to see God, for surely she
was pure in heart. Farewell Christ
ian friend! thy life was beacon light
to lead others to God, an effulgent
star the halo of whose rays paints
across the armament of earthly hope
the glowing cross. at whose base all
may find rest. We miss thee dear
friendl but earth's pilgrimage is brief
and in the sweet by and by we hope
to meet thee again in that blessed
land just beyond the river.

is constant reader of The PRoGRsss
and expressed himself highly pleased
with the open and candid manner il;

this by handing in two new sub.

HAPPENED IN

The following was unavoidably
crowded out last week.
In company with Superintendent
j. l.. Hargrove we paid short visit
to the boys school presided over by
Prof Dale. Our visit was unexpect-
ed, hence we found the school busy
in the regular routine of their daily
work. This gave us an opportunity
to form an opinion of the professors
manner of training. The young gen.
tleman at the blackboard demOnstrat
ing the mysteries of fractions con-
vinced us that he was thoroughly
familiar with his work. The closing
exercises of the day We're being gone
through with, suspension was or
dered and Superintendent Hargrove
delivered a short and practical ad-
dress to the boys, in which he paid
both teacher and scholars many COM
pliments; spoke of the Importance of
their applying themselves diligently
while at school, that soon they would
be called to occupy the various i'm
portant positions of life, hence while
they had the opportunity to prepare
themselves no time should be lost;
said it was his intention to introduce
music taught by sight reading; this is
the new method, making it easy for
children to acquire, Professor Dale
informs us that he registered 36
boys in his school for this term. This
number necessarily makes it too much
crowded, as the building is too small
for the comfort of teacher or pupils,
and we earnestly suggest that the
