MRS. s. CHARLES YOUyG,

shadow,
On Monday morning at 3 O'Clock,
after a brief illness lasting little
mOGp than twenty>foIr honrS, Mrs
Blanche L. SasSi-r YOnng passed
quietly and peacefully from this
life.
Surrounded by her devoted
family. conscious to the last aud
clad in the armor of perfect
Christian faith, her gentle soUl put
on the wings of Immortality and
entered the portals of the Kingdom
OF Eternal Rest.
Mrs. YOnng was born in Decem>
ber, 1887, in New Orleans. her
father, the late Louis lie Sassier.
being a member of the old
aud distinguished family of that
name.
She spent her girlhoOd il
the city of her birth where she was
tenderly reared and educated. aud
on entering society she became one
OF its ornaments.
In 1860 she married Judge S.
Chas. YOdug. then resident of
Adams county, Miss. aui a mems
der OF one OF the oldest and best
families of that county. Two child
ren, Mr.. b. F. Young, a prominent
young lawyer of this place, aud DIR.
Lonis LIE Sassier YoHng, U S.Navy,
blessed this union.
After the war Judge and Mrs.
Young Game to this parish and re.
maiued for time on their plaBta>
ton on Lake st. Peter, but in 1875
they came 10 st. Joseph to live,
Judge Young becoming a prOmi-
nent and successful mem Der of the
Tensas bar and reIng twice hOnOred
by an election to the Office of Dis
trict Judge. Here, at once, Mrs,
Young became beloved member
of society,
In her the perfection of gentle
birth and breeding were blended
with an inna'e grace of manner aud
charming personality rarely equaleh
and impossible to describe. Little
children felt it and loved her; men
anu women OF tue world, hardened
by contact with the asmrities Of
lite, felt it aud were irresistibly at>
tracted to her.
So it came ahout that IN time of
Joy and festivlty her cheerful, win
some nature made her the welcome
guest IN every households; III time
of sadness aud distress her mlnlS-
tering presence was sOu2ht aud
found 10 tne house Of mourning.
Reared as au orthodox daughter
of the Ancient Church, her faith
was tOuchiugly beautiful and per-
vaded her whole nature, faith
carrying with it broad char
ity which. stretching beyond all
creeds and doctrines, covered With
It's divine mantle all conditions of
mankind.
We reverentIy lift the sacred veil
which envelopes bone life to say of
this gentle lady that IN that sphere
of ~Omanhood her nnblest qualities
were manifested. Beautiful is the
home created by fhe tender devo>
tioD of tue wife and mother; where
reciprocal affection blrsSes the dan.

smo0lhS the rough places IN the
pathway 0f life.
Such hone was created by her
who is gone; such home mournS
her loss. Aud in this loss our whole
people will JON. for the COOL works
done IN our midst 10y this unassum>
ing lady shall not be forgotten.
Her gentle piety and sweet chari,
ty, ber devotion to husband, child
ren and friends shall he remem-
bered AMI remain az a shining ex,
ample and guide to our young
maldens and as a tender memory
To all who know her.

decided TO undertake is the Raising

or course, Judge. you understand
that 10y the above | do not mean TO
say the levees above are all they
ought TO be any more than those in
Tensas, but it is certainly great
satisfaction TO see the chances for
such an Improved condition over
what has heretofore existed, and to
say for the first time since the
NazOO front was closed up, that
along the entire length of the dis
trict, the chances for holding the
line against high water, will be
about even.
1t does mean that water like
1893 shall all pass down the river
IN front of Tensas parish Instead of
largely into cIevasSes above aud
down through your back country.
and your levee line will he tested as
it never WAS brfure. The work you
are now having done will come INTO
good play. You will br glad to see

The captivity Of an old horse, which
for eight years.. will end tomorrow. He
has lived on the top door Of Josiah T.
1'ubby's leather warehouse, at 81 Gold
street, all this time. and It is only at
long intervals that people ever hear OF
his existence. At such times the horse
usually gets loose from his stall and
walks to the window to survey the
outside world. From the top of the
four-story building, where he lives, he
can look dow at other horses in the
crowded streets Of the Swamp and
across to Brooklyn. where the tall build

terspersed with the bright foliage OF
many handsome shrubs and trees.
for hoisting leather in the building, and
to do this a boy drives him around a
tanbark ring. In this way he has trav-
elled about 1900 miles.
1t Is not for that reason, however,
that the horse will come down. He is
sleek and well fed. and 1t is certain that
he bears no grudge against Josiah
Tubby or any member of his family.
For he rubs his nose against every one
who approaches him, and doesn't object

agent to investigate his case, but they
have never been able to find cause for
action against the owners.
