John A. Saffell and DR.. j. II. English
being present. 1t was decided to es-
tablish a pest house at the most prac'
ticable point 10 or near Bonnie Terre
and to appoint a physician to take
charge of and treat the patients. II
was also provided that if persons al.
ficted with the malady would consen,
to be quarantined at their homes and
remain there, they would be permitted
that privilege: but if they refuse to
submit to this regulation, and leave
their house and mingle among the
people, as many of them have been
doing, they will be arrested and taken
to the pest house, and will afterwards
be proceeded against for violation oil
the law. Judge Saffell was authorized
to appoint a physician and to establish
the pest house. 1t was his intention to
ask DR.. G. G. Poston TO take charge
OF the patients, but we have not learned
whether be has consented to do so or
not. We understand that there are

Obituary.

Mrs. Thomas Beard, on old resident
of this place, passed away Monday
afternoon, January 6, 1902. Our
hearts join many others and go out in
sympathy for her girls. We hope this
was all for the best. Mrs. Beard was
a member of the St. Paul's Church,
and was always a kind and loving
teacher to us all. We cannot but
wish she was with us. but His will,
not ours, be done. Her Sunday School
class feels very sad because she will
teach them any more. She will
always be missed by everyone that
knew her, for she was not only a
friend but a true and patient teacher.
She is not gone, but hidden,
Our teacher will never die;
TIC us she still is living
Although not by our side.
She will sleep, aye sleep
Until that blessed day
When nc more we weep,
But with her will stay.
She is at peace with Jesus,
And blessed is her sleep.
No more pain or sorrow
Can with her ever meet.
We can only try to be
Sweet, kind and gentle
As our loving teacher be
Now and ever more.
ONE OF HER OLD SCHOLARS.

EXPORT TRADE TO DOUBLE
MACHINERY FOR MINES AND FARMS
WILL BE SHIPPED FROM THIS PORT.

1t is the opinion OF the trading companies and
steamship agents here having business rela-
lions with South Africa that the cessation of
the war there will mean a large Increase in
trade. Where one ship has been loaded in the
course OF a few months there will be business
for two. The traders have had reason to
complain of the trade during the war. for they
say that Great Britain has bought a large part
OF her food supplies for the army here. Grain
and hay for the horses and mules shipped
in large quantities at times. a representative
of one trading company said: England could
not have carried on the war a month without
the aid of the Americans"
