SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. w. &.
MASON.
At Her Home on Sunday Evening
Last.

It becomes our sorrowful duty to
convey to our readers this week the
sad intelligence of the death of Mrs.
w. @. Mason, wife of w. G. Mason,
Esq, of Laporte. Mrs. Mason was
taken on Monday, Sept. 30, with a
severe cold which soon developed
into pneumonia. After week s
sickness she began to convalesce and
her condition was such as to indicate
a speedy recovery. On Saturday
last she suffered Il relapse, however,
and continued to grow rapidly worse.
She expired early Sunday evening.
Mrs. Mason was the only daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Stormont,
Of Laporte, and was born in Winds
ham twp, Norfolk county, Canada,
May 81. 1860. Her parents came to
Laporte when she was but five years
of age and from that time her home
has been here. On December 90,
1881, she was united in marriage
with W. Q. Mason Esq. -Four chil~
dren have been born to them, the
youngest being only little over one
year old. Her untimely death re-
moves from her family circle de
voted wife and mother, and an affcc>
,ionate daughter and sister.
Mrs. Mason was a generous syms
pathetic woman and although her
family cares and duties consumed
most of her time and strength she
was ever ready to prove her worth
as a neighbor and friend by doing
all in her power to aid the needy
and relieve the distressed. Her
care and thoughtfulness for those
about her commended her to all who
we're fortunate enough to be num-
bercd among her acquaintances. Not
only will she be greatly missed in
the home that has been so suddenly
,addened, but in the entire commun>
ity where she has lived since girl
hood. Expressions Of sympathy for
the grief-stricken family are univer>
sal.
The funeral services were held in
he Presbyterian church Wednesday
afternoon and were conducted by
Rev. r. W. Polk, of Towanda.

The Republican, in its last issue, speaks
of the illegal use of money in last falls
campaign, and urges Democrats not to vote
their party ticket this fall. Now, let us
probe this matter little Some of the
Republican leaders are authority for the
report that the editor of the Republican
received $500 with which to carry the late
Republican primary elections in the inter
ests of certain parties. If the
editor of the Republican wishes to accuse
any person or party of using money for
illegitimate election purposes, he should
first deny the report circulated by some OF
his Republican colleagues, If it is not true.
or if he used the money for legitimate
purposes, let him state for what it was
ed.-Dushore Gazette.
This is the first time to our knowl-
edge that we have been accused
openly of receiving $500 with which
TO carry the late Republican primary
elections" 'Tis true the Dushore
papers have limited it, in sarcastic
manner, as it were, but they have
never come out openly and said "we
were the fellow" hence the shoe
didn't fit us and we would have been
little premature to have buckled it
around our foot.
The charge is false and as a mat
ter of course we deny it.

A Skull With a History -.

While a number of the city
prisoners were engaged yesterday
in tearing up floor in little room
adjoining the Alamo police station,
one of them unearthed piece of a
human skull in one corner of the
room. The old Alamo adjoins
this room, which is under the room
in which David Crockett died. 1t
is believed the skull is one Of
Texas noble heroes, who sacrificed
his life in freeing the Lone Star
state from Mexico. When the
prisoner saw the skull he immedi-
stely quit digging at that place,
for fear, as he said, he might strike
the rest Of the skeleton. The room
will be used as shelter from the
cold for the mounted officers
horses this winter.

goer, but Mr.. Warde and his COM

the romance than has been thought
possible. In the splendid climax

up to the high standard he requires
of them, and all achieved merited
success,

A RED BAT.

The Great Flying Fox of the Tropics
Mr.. Jules A. Appler, while gath
ering pecans recently from the
trees along the banks of the Medi-
ma river, came upon living curl.
osity in the form OF a red bat,
which was captured by him as 1t
was hanging on bunch Of pecans,
upon which it was voraciously
feeding. The pecans showed that
this peculiar creature had torn of
the outside hulls and the shell and
was feeding on the rich kernel. The
bat did not survive in captivity,
however, and Mr.. Appler presented
it to a LIGHT reporter, who has had
it preserved and mounted and it
can now be seen in the show win
dow of the LIGHT office.
This "red bat" is not properly a
bat, though is member Of the
cheioptera family. 1t is known as
the flying fox, on account of the
vulpine aspect OF the head and as
the kalong and rousette. 1t is a
native OF tropical countries and is
rarely seen so far into the temper
ate zones as this one. The kalong
Is great destroyer Of fruits, it's IA
vorite food being figs and bananas.
1t is unlike the black or gray bat,
in that it will not attack the hu.
man race, and is very docile, and
when taken young and properly
cared for makes a nice pet. The
present specimen, with wings out
stretched, measures but s inches,
but when full grown, the wings Of
this creature will measure feet,
expanded. It's flight is more bird
like than any other OF the bat fam

What the People are Saying.
The people are saying goodbye
Judge!" to our congressman, and
building high hopes upon his
efforts to bring back good old re-
publican times to West Texas.
No man ever left q community
with more sincere wishes for his
success. A lifetime friendship
follows him from under genial
skies to the frigid region OF the
north.
We have no fears but that his
matured judgment in public af-
fairs, his intimate knowledge of
the people he represents, will ena-
BILE him to impress his co-workers
in the halls OF congress favorably.
We can't expect that our one con-
gressman will bring about legisla-
tion favorable to West Texas, with
out the aid of others, but we can
build our hopes securely upon his
making a grand effort to serve his
district and his state.
Our city is so dependent upon
the great grass producing district
of West Texas that has suffered Sc
verely from free trade legislation
that Judge Noonan's mission will
be watched with anxiety.
+
We will all eat our Thanksgiving
turkey with good appetite,-thank-
full for the many blessings a mer-
ciful Providence has bestowed, not
the least of which is our republican
congressman who goes in our be-
half to ask of a republican congress
the restoration Of republican pro-
lection.
