HEROIC DEATH
OF Mother Augusta-EartiSu
of q Most Unfortunate DC.
CUrrenSe.

peculiarly sad occurred near Lake
Charles last Tuesday on passenger
train No. 8 which is due at this
point at 2:31 In the morning. 1t was
one of those inexplicable fatalities
which human efforts can not pre-
vent. No one regretted it more
than Conductor w. J. Hoover who
acted the part of the humane and
big-hearted man that he is. Rail-
road men are often called upon to
witness heartrending scenes, but
never before had the crew of train
No. 8 been confrontedOwith an &C
cident SO inexpressibly pathetic.
Among the passengers were two
nuns, Mother Augusta and Sister
Francis who were from the Sacred
Heart Academy, Of Hallettsvllle,
Texas, and on their way to New
Orleans. 1t was subsequently as
certained that Sister Francis was
being taken by Mother Augusta to
New Orleans to be treated for in
sanity.
When point about three miles
from Lake Charles was reached
Sister Francis arose from her seat
and dashed coward the platform of
the coach, being closely followed
by Mother Augusta. Conductor
Hoover noticing this, rushed from
an adjoining car to the rescue of
the nuns, who had by this time,
fallen off the rapidly moving
train. Conductor Hoover stopped
the tram, and soon went to the as
sistance of the unhappy nuns who
were carried into the train by kind
hands. Mother Augusta was suf-
fering from a fracture of the skull
while Sister Francis was not in
jured. DR.. Arcenaux of Welsh was
sent for and everything was done to
relieve Mother Augusta and to ap-
pease the demented nun who had
become greatly excited and wanted
to jump off the train again. Mother
Augusta never regained conscious
ness and just when the train en-
tered the corporate limits of La
fayette the soul of this sanity nun
who had consecrated her life to
God and had just given evidence
of sublime devotion to duty, left
this earth to take it's place among
the angels in heaven. Mother
Augusta died heroine's death. In
the fulfllment Of a sacred trust she
ended a life dedicated to noble
deeds. In an effort to save a be-
loved sister from what seemed i'm
minent death this sweet-faced SOL
der of the cross lost her own life.
When the train reached Lafayet:e
Coroner ]. F. Mouton was infor med
of what had happened. The doctor,
Messrs. Pink Torian, Desire Doucet
and others at the So. Pacific station
rendered every assistance and pre-
parations were soon made to take
the body of Mother Augusta to the
Mount Carmel Convent. Mother
Patrick also kindly took charge of
Sister Francis who was taken to
New Orleans the next day.
Mother Patrick communicated
with the convent at Hallettsville to
which place the body of Mother
Augusta was conveyed for burial.
Mother Augusta and Sister Fran
els were of the order of the Incar-
nate Word.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled
the silly notion that one kind of
food is needed for brain, another for
muscles. and still another for bones.
A correct diet will not only nurish
a particular part of the body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet,
however good your food may be, its
nutrimenti is destroyed by indiges
ton or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses OF Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine Of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids iiges

An Animal Curiosity.

There are not very many trans,
parent animals, but studies of two
larval cells, which possess this pecul-
iarity and which belong to the Ma
tional museum, seem to show that
among the possible advantages Of
being transparent is economy in
personal decoration. In ordinary
opaque animals the color markings
are symmetrical on the two sides Of
the body, but this is not the case
with the transparent cells. Each of
them, when looked at from one side,
appears to have seven large black
spots arranged at nearly regular in
tervals along the length Of its body,
but closer examination shows that
in each case three of the spots are
On the left side and four on the
right and irregularly placed, but in
such a manner that, on looking
through the body, all seven appear
in symmetrical row.
