Miss Stella Euverard.

1t was peculiarly sad summons which
called little Stella from the joys Of youth
through the portals of the sky. She
Was but thirteen years of age, yet so
bright and kindly that her sweet soul
had won the hearts of all who knew her
For five weeks she had fingered in the
terrible grasp of typhoid fever. After
prolonged and fearful suffering, death
came as a relief, on the evening of the
10th. Her mortal remains were laid to
rest beneath the sod, at Ambrose Chapel,
six of her little school mates acting as
pail bearers. 1t has been we'll said, "The
old must die, and the young may" With
the old there is sense of timely expec.
tation. But, when the young, with ev.
cry promise of useful and happy lives,
are cut down on the threshold of their
earthly hopes, the work of the destroyer
is especially sad. But there is happier,
brighter view.
"Hope dries the tear which sorrow weepeth.
No mortal sound the voice which criea,
The damsel is not dead, but sleepeth ="

What They Think OF Him.

Rev. NJ. LeSourd, the new pastor of
of the M. E. Church here, is gentleman
of rare ability and his work in the min
istry has been attended by remarkable
success. The people of Greenfield d.,
where he held his last appointment,
think great deal of him. The Green,
field News says:
Greenfield people are pleased to learn
that Rev. NJ. LeSourd has been assigned
to the pastorate of the M. E. Church at
Hillsboro. The people of Greenfield
love Mr.. LeSourd and are very 10th to
part with him, and they will be glad to
know that he will be close neighbor
for some years to come. AS a pastor,
citizen, Christian, neighbor and friend,
Mr.. LeSourd is preeminent, and Green
field heartily congratulates Hillsboro in
its high good fortune in securing Mr..
LeSourd and his most estimable wife
as citizens. There is no doubt that his
service, there will be equally as crafty
ing and as great as it has been here
The Greenfield Enterprise says:
"Rev. NJ. LeSourd was here middle OF
week, experimenting the removal of his
household effects to Hillsboro, having
been assigned TO that city by the late
conference. While here as pastor OF the
NJ. E Church his congregation became
greatly attached to him, for his noble
work in and out of the pulpit as a min.
lister, and it is with reluctance they lose
him and his excellent wife. That they
may be successful in his new field of
labor as here is the wish of all his
friends here"

The way is hilly, and much of the road

doing good deal of hard cycling of late,
and his friends claim he was not in good
condition. However, he is plucky and

The Democrats are loudly denouncing
the Republicans as claiming the credit
for the advance in wheat. Hold on
there This is not true. The Republi.
cans claim this year as they did last,
that the price lie governed by the law Of
supply and demand, and the events have
proven their position correct. On the
other hand, the Democrats said the law
OF supply and demand had nothing to
do with it, but that the falling price o!
silver was the sole cause of the decline
in wheat Now. they seek to divert at.
tention from the falsity of their predic.
tions of twenty. five cent wheat, by rails.
ing the ridiculous cry that the Republi.
cans claim the credit Of short crops
abroad The American people are not
to be fooled with such chaff.

The Republican throws somersault
of Joy because it thinks it has at last
caught the News HERALD in an inaccura
cy. We intended to say that the mail
which came on the m ,rning freight has
been thrown back, so that it now comes
abort 900 a m. Also that there is no
train or mail out of this city after the
four p. m. train. But the Republican,
with it's cross eyed view, tries to see it
differently. The fact remains, however,
that the changes referred to have been
made, much to the Inconvenience and
regret OF our people. We trust however,
that the rapidly increasing demands of
business will soon result in restoration
OF the former convenient arrangements

1t seems that the law regards domes
tic chickens as game when they wander
beyond thes premises of their owners,
and affords no redress against the neigh

is sustained, wouldn't it be in order for
our Democraticl friends to get up and
howl?

We have mentioned the fact that Will
Richards was the proud possessor of the
tanned hide OF boa constructor. Mon.
day morning George Kramer took the
skin to Cincinnati, to have pair Of
shoes each made for himself and Will
Richards. The hide cost $40, and the
making of the shoes will cost $l4. Thus
the shoes will stand them $17 for each
pair. This snake, it will be remembered,
bit the snake charmer in a show here,
some six years ago, and was promptly
killed. The hide was tanned by Frank
link, and is at last being put to some
useful purpose.

TEN REASONS

len REASONS
Why The French Garment Com
pany's Skirts are the best and most
popular selling garments on the
market today.
I. They are we'll made in every
detail.
2. They will give the best Of
satisfaction to the wearer.
3. They will not cling to the
limbs the way the cheaper grade
Of skirts will do.
4. They are warrapted fast black.
5. They are very desirable fall
and winter skirts, as the wind will
not blow through them. In warm
weather it is only necessary to
wear one, as one answers the pur-
pose of two or three, doing away
with so many extra bands around
the waist.
g. They are cut very wide at
the bottom.
7. They are all cut after our own
special patterns and will hold the
dress out at the bottom.
8. All ruffles are sewed on with
best grade of silk thread.
9. They will wash and retain
their lustre.
10. For an all-the-year.round
skirt they have NO SUPERIOR.

IMMENSELY OF THE POULTRY
PRODUCT

Ir is stated that the immensity Of the
poultry product Is seen In many ways.
Between 1000. 900 and 5000, 900 eggs are
consumed by New York city each day.
New jersey does not produce as many
eggs as its citizens consume at home.
Half dozen western states supply the
bulk of sll the eggs which are consumed
in New York city. Indiana sends the
largest number. Next In the list are
Ohio, Michigan and Iowa. Ii Is esti-
mated that Indiana IL the largest egg.
producing state In the country. Illinois
has large poultry industry, but nearly
all of It's product goes to the Chicago
market. Not one Of the New England
states has any place 10 the markets, yet
there are thousands asking for some one
TO direct them to the straight and mar
row path leading towards prosperity. II
the state of Maine should increase its
egg output thousand fold, the fact
would hardly make ripple 1T the dis.
tributing centre, yet the eggs and poult'
ry Of Maine are worth to the farmers 0l
Maine nc least two and half million;
annually. The increase would helI
many man pay taxes and insurance
and 20 to the circus. II New England
should extend the business until It sup
piled the home markets no one would be
injured 10 the least, but mine Of wesltf
would be opened Of inestlmable value
There would be dollars In circulation
and the wallet Of the farmer, who woult
be the hen man, would make a tramp
mouth water.
