A large-sized United States flag was
raised here near the depot Monday,
and will be kept waving until the
Spaniards are licked. The occasion
was witnessed by very large crowd,
including the Whitworth College girls
and all the pupils of the Public School.
The Stonewall Guards under COM
mand of Capt. ID. d. Ewing, gave a
short exhibition drill, followed by a
stirring and patriotic speech delivered
by Hon. H. Cassidy, Jr., who has en-
listed as private in the ranks of the
Guards. Mr.. Cassidy didn't call upon
the young men who heard him to go
to the war, but to come along with him.
The young soldiers fired three sa-
lutes when the flag went up. Capt.
Ewing expects to raise the enlistment
of men in Company H. to the full
number required by the Governors
proclamation.
A big "war meeting" was held at the
Court House Monday night, which was
addressed in patriotic words by Judge
Powell, President Chambers, Hon. J.

sister VI. Garcia.

sister Mary Garcia, who for the past
three years, has been Superioress of
Notre Dame Convent and Directress
of st. Francis School, left Brookhaven
on the 22ud ult, for a larger field OF
labor.
She was sent here TO build up the
school in this place, and how ably and
unselfishly she fulfilled this commits
sion, the work she leaves behind
will tell.
In the world, Sister Garcia was a
Miss Helen Mitchell. She was born
fifty one years ago at Baltimore, Nd,
and before entering the Convent,
moved in the higest circles of society.
She owns considerable valuable prop
erty both in Baltimore and Washing
ton, ID. c., which, had she remained
here, she intended to convert into
cash, to be used in establishing an
Academy and Boarding School at this
place.
Sister Garcia was true type of the
Southern woman. She possessed rare
executive abilities and worked with I'M
firing energy and devoted zeal in the
cause which she espoused,-the educa-
ton of youth. She organized and
maintained the Kindergarten at st.
Francis School, and under her direc-
tionthe numberof pupils increased, and
the standard of the school was raised
so as to be on footing with the best
schools of the State.
Those in need or affliction found in
her true friend-she was beloved and
esteemed by all that knew her well,
and though all that had dealings with
her have reason to regret her depart
ure, by none will she be more sadly
missed than by the pupils of st.
Francis School, and by the members OF
her own Sisterhood here.
She was a woman of and for the
times, and in a progressive little town
like ours, she was the fright person in
the right place." While host of re-
grets at her departure went with her
expressions of appreciation, gratitude
and we'll wishes were not wanting.
