the Governor pdrticeps crimiais in

report Of the Board Of Control ol
this home made to the Governor and
the General Assembly. This home
is established on the Indian Cauu
Plantation, in IberviIle. Whie un

these humble servants Of the Lord
Mr. NJ. ID. Logan, President of the
boar'l, says:
"The chief credit OF what is being
done at the Lcper Home is due to
Sister Superior Beatrice and the
three other Sisters Of Charity in
charge, who relieve us so entirely OF
all the details Of management OF
dom, ste affairs, the nursing and
providing for the comfort OF the
satients. What we may all do fol
the Leper Home is nothing com pare
TO their unOstentaliOus work"
Elsewhere he says: ''the affairs OF
the Home, thanks to tt e watchfuiness
and patience of the Sisters, run
smo0hly."
Dr. Pierce, the physician in charge,
also speaks highly of the good work
Of the Sisters. He says:
"The rest of the patients. on the
whole, have enjoyed excellent health,
and are happy and contented as pos
sible under the sOlicitOus and sym
pathetic care Of the Sisters, who wash
and dress their sores, administer
their medicine and nOurishment when
sick, providing for their anu selnents,
giving daily readings to those who
wish it, aud lnstructing the young il,
the primary branches of learning
The present number of prtlents
living in the Home Is thirty, among
VIII 'm are several under twenty one
years Of age. There Is a girl of IL
years, another of l3 years and a boy
Of l2 years. In the girl Of IL and
the boy of IL, the disease made its
appearance when they were only

The SENTINEL returns thanks to
Messrs. T. Jay Lacy & Co. the pro.
prictors Of the we'll known Mount
Hope Nursery at Washington, La,
for box of Goumii Cherries, one of
the best early fruits of this county.
The cherries are fine and have a
pungcnt taste. Messrs. Lacy & Co.
write of the GOumii ut is one of
the best early fruits of this country.
The bush begils TO bear when very
young, and bears abundant crops
every .pring, no matter what the
weather is.
This is a new fruit of our own
introduction from Japan. 1t grows
from 3 to 10 feet high, bears the
second summer after planting, and
ripens its fruit in May. The fruit is
about the size, shape and color OF
the Cranberry, with one very small,
long seed in tie center. 1t may be
eaten raw or used for cooking a; 40
cents each % for 10 tress."
The reputation of the "Mount
Hope Nursery for straight goois and
fair dealing is well established, and
people who contemplate investing in
fruit trees would do we'll to cores
pond with its proprietors on tie
subject.
