Hearts that are wrung with anguish

day as the sunshine smiles and fades
upon this now new-made grave,
memory will lose Its heartless sorrow,
and only love and memory will re-
main. The sorrowing husband, par
ents, brothers and sisters have the
sympathy of this community.

church The home is being projected
be a board OF trustees chosen and en-

now being drawn up asking the govern
ment for concessions toward a site
The government could do no more
benevolent act, than donate a site for
an institution Of this kind. 1t is
apparent TO every one visiting the
springs that the need Of such home
is very great In addition TO the home
and sanitarium features of this institu.
tion, there will be public library and
reading room. These are greatly need
ed, there being none in the city. The
benevolent public eau do no greater or

LEDGER. introduced before the Nat
onal Editorial Association a resolution
calling for a committee to invite a
worlds congress- OF editors to meet at
81. Louis during the Worlds Fair in
1903.
A sharp fight was made to amend
the resolution by leaving out the date
1908, the argument of the father OF
the proposed amendment being that 1t
was not probable that the Fair would
be held in 1908.
T. Sambela Jones, of the Baton
Rouge AdUoeate, came to the aid Of Mr..
White and pointed out that 1t wopfd
be IAN oiiicious and uncalled for aes
on the part of the association to take
Official cognizance OF a possible post
ponement of the fair when such post
ponement was at present nothing
more than rumor and had never been
officially considered either by Congress
OF the Worlds Fair Board"
The original resolution was passed
as follows:
"Resolred, That the National Edi-
torial Association appointa committee
to invite worlds congress of editors
TO meet in st, Louis during the
Worlds Fair in that city in 1903; and
that Hon. Walter Williams, editor Of
the Columbia (Mo.) Herald. and ex-
president of this association, who is
now abroad, be made a member Of
this committee.
Seven members are to constitute the
committee.
Mr.. White, of the Mexico MO- }
LEDGER, was made chairman, Mr..
