Gone TO Eais Reward.

Death is ever sad. Whether it be
the tiny, helpless babe, who just open
ed its eyes upon this world and draws
a few feeting breaths; the idolized son
or daughter in all the flush and beauty
of promising youth; the strong man in
the prime and vigor OF useful career, or
the aged and deefepit whose sands Of
life have run through to the last grain.
Bnt there be times when the halo of a
well spent life light up the encircling
gloom Of sadness and grief. Such it
was when Dir. William Dee White, full
of honor, and surrounded by a devoted
wife and loved oDes,after a bard fought
struggle with a painful disease, loosed
the ties that held his kindly, noble
spirit to its earthly tenement and sped
through the realms Of the infinite to
meet its Maker.
DR.. White was II of a family Of nine
children born to Ben R. and Eliza M.
White. He was born az Franklin,
Williamson county, Tenn, August 81,
1856. In 1859 he removed with his
parents to Opelousas. He was educat-
ed at shelbyvi!le University and en-
tered the medical department of the
University Of Nashville, frem which he
graduated with honors id 1860, and be-
gan the practice of his profession in
Vermil:on parish. He was coroner of
the parish for Is years, and always
took an active part in the elevation of
the standard of the medical profession.
He was an old and valuable member of
the La. State Medical Society and was
frequently honored with official posi-
tions therein.
On Dec. "a, 1862 he was married to
Miss Lucinda R. Lyons of this parish
and of this union were born 14children
5 of whom now survive, Jas. E., Mary
f. Mrs. j. r. Kitchell,) Carrie (AErs.
W. O. Pipes.) H. Tascom, Elizabeth
Rosa, Thomas and Milton.
onr departed friend did not live for
himself alone. He was always active
and foremost in all that tended to i'm
prove the country, upbuild society and
advance morality. A deyout member.
of the Methodist church, his home was
for years the abode of the ministers of
that denomination. In we'll doing he
never wearied and he gave without
stint to every deserving object. To
friend and stranger alike the latch
string Of his hospltable threshold ever
hung on the outside, and it opened to
a welcome that was boundless in its
g~raciousness and sincerity.
On that bland springlike afternoon
of his funeral, tho ~coneourse Of sorrow-
ing friends and relatives who followed
his remains to taeir last resting place
in the narrow home in the Masonic
cemetery was the largest seen here in
many years. At the Methodist church
short but touching remarks were made
by Rev's Lucas, Miller and Neill.
The Masonic Fl Maternity Of which he was
an honored member-being the first
of the local lodge-eonducted
the burial service at the grave. Rev
.erently, with uncovered, bowed heads,
the audience listened to the solemn
words of the beautiful ritual, as all that
was earthly of q good and honorable
man was laid to rest, feeling that his
departed spirit had gone to
n join the cloir invisible
Of the immortal dead who live again
In minds made better by their presence.

One Of the most perfect flint spear
heads we ever saw is in the possession
of David Newhauser. given him by
Ge1eux Of Jeanerette. It is Of flint
rock about six inches long By two and
ahalf broad. The peculiar feature of
this spear head is that it was found
embedded in a tree in the swamps Of
Iberia. PROFESSIONALLY it was brought
here from q distance and may have
been thrown at a enemy in battle or
at game. Evidently the mark was
missed and tie spear head went into a
