Pity
and


The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimples and JOY. The most
|pitiful thing is that same baby,
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ
ence.
Dimples and JOY have gone,
and left hollows and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve-all but pity
and love--is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There IS some
thing wrong;itis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; IS living On what
she had stored in that plump
little body of hers; and that IS.

THE RICE TRUST
Has Bought the Entire
Output Of the State
for Four Years.

Crowley, La, Sept. pa gi-
gantic scheme has been made public
which promises the formation uf .
syndicate of New York capitalists,
backed by So 900, 900 capital. The
plan is 10 contract with the rice
farmers for four years for the pur-
chase of their rice at certain guar.
anteed prices, according to grades,
which are specified in the contract,
to be signed by The farmers, in
which the privilege nf . renewal for
AN additional four wears is provided.
The syndicate is to make all the
public warehouses bonded ware
houses. where Ire farmers will de-
liver their rice and have it graded.
The purp0se OF this syndicate, they
claim, Is not to bUust the price Of
clean rice, but to maintain the pres
ent prices anil establish staple
price for the rough article. The
scheme is receiving the hearty sup
port OF the mills here, and many 81
the large planters. and t is elaine
that the syndicate will control fully
20 per cent of the rough rice raised
IN this country II is expected tina,

tracts now being circulated fol

THE COTTON CROP.
Average Condition is the
Lowest Known in
Many Years.

The Times Democrat, last Mon
day, presents the reports of it's cor
respondents on the progress Of the
cotton. crop during the month Of
September.
With rare exceptions, the changes
in the status were DISTINCTLY for the
worse, and the average condition
is. no doubt, the lowest ever known
since crop reporting assumed sys-
Texas has heretofore been q
bright spot on the map, but the
tremendous storms and torrential
rains have brought the expectations
CT the Lone Star State within very
moderate limits.
Arkansas aud Louisiana are very
spotted, while the result in Alissis-
sippi is = ,eritablc disaster. Ala
hama is not quite SO bad. Geergis
and the Carolinas are not far be-
hind Mississippi in the matter Of
badness.
1t must be remembered that the
rimes-Democrat's correspondents
take the yield Of 1899 as the basis
Of comparison. As the production
of last year was only 100000
bales, it would appear that the hsr-
vest of 1900 has given the trade Al
exceedingly knotty problem te
slove.

Obituary

On the night of Sept. "a, 1900, the
Death Angel visited our vicinity, and
claimed for its vict.m little Velms Wal
lis, infant daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
T.. Wallis, one Of their brightest jewels.
While we know tits sad indeed, to part
with Velma, we are blessed with the
sweet assurance, that she has gone with
the angels and resting sweetly In tue
arms Of Jesus. Our hearts were sore,
bleeding sore, Is we watched her sweet
face 10 down with the. heavenly smile
upon her sweet lips, but God knew best,
and we must bow In humble submission
to His holy will. The Lord giveth and
the Lord taketh away. Blessed be His
name. Little Velma's short life faded
away with the sweet flowers of autumn,
This lovely bud SO young and fair,
Called hence from earthly doom.
Just came to show how sweet . flower
In paradise could bloom.
To the bereaved friends and relatives
we extend our heartfelt sympathy, AND
may we weep not as those who have nc
hope, and would say to the gnef.
stricken parents weep not, your babe Is
not dead; but gone before. And com.
mend you to that God who Is able
to save, and NAV you strive and conse.
crate yourselves to God and live thu
life of the righteous, SO when the sum
mons comes to call yOn away the swee
smiles of little Velma will be amOns
the first to welcome you home In heaven
where no farewell tears are shed, wher'
it is one bright summer always. AMI
SORROWS win never come. Your darlin;
can never return to you, dear parents
but you have the promise Of meeting
her again. Our dear Savior stands witt
outstretched hands and bids you come
May God help you, and take comf0T
that you will live for Gods glory amt
meet your babe in that celestial hOln'
of sweet deliverence, where we ma.
spend eternity, while ages shall roll
and bask in the sunlight smiles Of Hin
who doeth all things well.

HARMONY IN SIGHT.
Nominating Convention
to Reasenlble Oct. 3.

fractional differences in the De-
mocracy of the sixth congressional
district are nearing final adjust
ment that will be satisfactory to
the supporters of the two candi-
dates, Congressman Robertson, Of
East Baton Rouge and DR.. A. r.
Barrow, OF West Fellciana, each of
whom have been claiming to be the
regular Democratic nominee. An
agreement was reached last Satur-
day by the representatives of the
two factions whereby the original
nominating convention of the sixth
congressional district that met in
Baton Rouge Monday, Sept. 10,
will be reassembled in Baton
Rouge next Tuesday, Oct. 9. In
stead of there being a committee
on credentials chosen from among
the membership of that convention,
the committee that will prepare the
permanent roll of the convention
will be composed of five members,
two to be selected by the Robert
son faction, two by the Barrow
faction, and the chairman of this
committee on credentials will be
either E. B. kruttschnltt, Chair
man of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee, or, IN the event Of
Mr.. kruttschnitt's being out the
State at that time, Hugh e. Cage,
chairman of the Executive Com
mittee of the State Central Com
mittee. Both factions have agreed
aud obligated themselves to abide
by the result of the action of this
committee aud the convention SO

These conclusions were reached
