tions. What a benediction this silently
ex Dressed thought seemed to breathe into
our soul life as we recently stood beside
the quiet form of a beloved daughter of
dear friends and neighbo RS of the preci-
GUS, happy old home life.
We thought to let all rest here 10 it's
preciousness-"in Gods care" but the
restful. sweetness OF its import recurs
again and again and we cannot refrain
from thus expressing sympathy and love

mons come to Mary's great aunt,

APPEAL FOR AID.

The farmers in north Louisiana
are in destitute condition, and
are suffering for the necessaries OF
life. They have been ruined by
the long drouth of last year, and
appeal for aid, in the shape Of food
and clothing. Here is an oppor-
tunity for the iberal-hearted to
show their charity, without going
beyond the confines of the State.
A committee of three from
Grant Parish are now in New Or
leans, and have issued an appeal,
from which we make the following
extract:
We were especially requested to
solicit clothing for the women and
children, who are about 5000 in
number, the majority Of whom
have not sufficient clothes to insure
warmth and protection from the
winter cold. We want, in addition
to clothes and food, a lot of garden
seed, assorted, and about 1000
bushels planting oats. We stand
in actual need of bread and meat
for about 500 families, and meal
for ali of them. We feel our utter
helplessness and take this oppor-
tunity to appeal to the charita-
bic citizens of Louisiana, feeling
that we will not appeal in vain.

LYNCHING AT ANTE.
Three Negro Murderers
Pay the Penalty.

Last Tuesday night crowd Of
about 200 men surrounded the Jail
at Amite City, overpowered the
deputy sheriff, and compelled him
to open the Jail. They took from
the Jail John johnson, the murder.
er Of the Cotton family, and his
accomplice, Arch Joiner, and an
other negro, Gus Williams, wife
murderer.
The crowd took Williams to a
negro church near town, and
hanged him to a big oak tree.
They then took johnson and
Joiner to the Cotton residence, the
scene Of their crime, twelve miles
from Amite City, where they
were hung and their bodies rid
died with bullets.
johnson made a confession, in
which he implicated Joiner and a
certain white man, whose name is
not known-at least it has not
been made public. Joiner also
confessed, and said two other ne
groes were present for the purpose
of robbery.
The horrible deed for which
they were lynched was commit
ted on the night of Sept. e5, 1896,
near Tickfaw, La, in the parish of
Tangipahoa. Those who fell VIC
Tins to their murderous wrath
were Mr.. and Mrs. John Cotton,
Mrs. Agnes Stevens, Marion Stevens
and Miss Lizzie Miller. Miss
Miller was not killed outright,
and was taken to New Orleans,
where she succumbed to her
wounds in the Touro Infrmary.

Within fifteen miles of Johannes

at the fabulous sum of So, 500, O00.-

A novel theory about "catching
cold" has been advanced by DR..
w. ii. Pearce, of Lincoln. Ac-
cording to this new theory of
Pearce there is no special danger
in going from hot room directly
into the cold air. The heat of the
room is in fact believed to be a
great preventative of chill. The
real danger, it is believed, comes
from passing from the cold into an
overheated and inadequately venti-
lated room. The lung catarrhal
affections in other words are due
for the most part to the excretions
from the lungs and skin.
