Obituary Cordula.

1t was on Tuesday, the 9TH day
Of April, 1895. that Venerable Sister
Cordula, after 4 short sickness of three
days, died, in this city, (as announced
last week. of pneumonia; and on the
llth day of April, Thursday after
noon, her mortal remains were in.
tered for the last repose at st. Mary's
grave yard. In the world, she was
known by the name of Sophia
Niemann; born near Dusseldorf,
Rhine Province, Germany. A little
child, not two years of age, she came
with her parents to Burlington, Iowa.
Rev. Father Harmon, now of Darling
ton, Wis, at that time, pastor of that
town, gave her the first instruction in
Catechism and Christian doctrine; for
Sister Cordula attended diligently the
parish school of the venerable Sisters,
at Burlington. About the age of
eighteen years, she entered the order
Of the Dominican Sisters, at Racine,
Wis. 1t is unnecessary to state that
Sister Cordula was llrstrate in fine
needle work; every lady of the city
knows it. The deceased Sister in
structed for about the fourteen years
of her presence in the city of Mineral
Point, until Palm Sunday, a week ago,
her pupils in the fine needle arts; and
they feel her loss. Her work always
carried a prize at our County fair; and
the Worlds Exhibition at Chicago
awarded her pupils by the highest
Prize of Honor. Therefore her former
pupils will keep the good Sister
Cordula in grateful blessed remember
ance. Above all, she was wise and
pious person; and at her coffin and
grave, everybody, whoever he may be,
could and can truly say: She prayed
also for me. 1t was the last day Of
her life when she ioyfully said fare
we'll to this world, and died, at the age
of 81 years, well prepared, blessing
temporal matters and all men, quietly
in the Lord. The funeral service was
conducted by Rev. Father OKeefe,
rector of st. Paul's church, city,
R-v. Father Halbenkann, rector OF st.
Mary's church; from the school house
to st. Mary's church and from thence to
the grave yard. The pail bearers were

young ladies at all, st .Doseph's society
attended the funeral in corpore. A

panied the funerel of Venerable Sister
Cordula to her last resting place.
May she rest in peace.

TOBACCO BREAKS"
The Term Explained by Miss Delphin
EuphroZine Hall.

Woman's Edition So. Tobacco Journal.
The origin of the localism, "To-
bacco Break is peculiar enough to
be Interesting.
Before the days of railroads, when
the distant markets made hauling
the crops tedious and expensive, the
farmers were driven to clever inge-
nuity to transport their stuff. AS
soon az the stripping and curing
process was complete, the tobacco
was put into a large tierce or hogs
head and packed or priced by the
use of q wooden screw manipulated
by hand. Pivots were then fixed to
each end of the fierce, shafts ats
tached and everything was ready to
start. Several farmers would go
together, each merrily pushing or
pulling his hogshead, as fancy dies
tated, and enlivening the journey
with story, incident and joke, often
at the expense of each other. When
a steep hill or any obstacle interpos,
ed, all dubbed in and lent mutual
aid until their property was safely
conveyed past the hindrance. and
at night they slept around the same
campfire in the open air.
Petersburg, Va, was the market
for Caswell county and that section,
and when reached the tierces were
all rolled into the warehouse, the
shafts removed and they were then
broken open (hence the name) IN
the presence of buyers and farmers
and in the midst Of the great hubbub,
caused by the latter urging the ex-
cellency of their own lot. The veal
thy planters harnessed mules or OK
en- to their hogsheads, and each was
driven by slave the owner accom-,
panying the long train on horses
back or in his carriage. This was
in the time of our great-grand faiths
ers, and these breaking days, or
breaks, were great events, attracts
ing large crowds, as the planters
frequently had their wives and fans
lilies with them. The ladies amused
themselves shopping and visiting,
as Petersburg was a great fashion
centre, and many are the we'll re-
memb ered, thrilling accounts of the
lovely bonnet5 and elegant dresses

your grandfather when | was girl,
my dear"
