Carrie Nations Gift.

Carrie Nation, she of the hatchet, ap-
parently has been a much maligned in
dividual. She has been thrown out of
saloons where she was bent upon
smashing glassware, arrested over and
over again for her obstreperous per-
sonal attentions. driven out of cities
by police, mobbed by hoodlums, and
made the butt of humorous paragraph
ers. Even her sanity has been oues-
toned, and her husband David was
forced to get a divorce from his
strenuous spouse.
All this has been due to an impress
sion that her crusades were entirely
sensational and that by them she was
advertising herself for lectures, adj
dresses and theatrical performances
for making money! theory not sur
prising when one considers the antics
of her press agent, who encouraged
the idea. Under such circumstances
it is not remarkable that saloonkeep-
ers were exasperated by her so-called
crusade and resented her destruction
of their stock and fixtures, and that
people in general have regarded her as
a nuisance.
Now. however, Carrie Nation has
proved tldt Sne Is nODeSC anu earnest,
and although her methods are none the
less to be condemned, she certainly is
entitled to the credit of sincerity in her
mission, hopeless as it is. Her transfer
of her property in Kansas City to that
city as home for women and children
who have been deserted by drunken
husbands and fathers-property which
she says she acquired only by long
years of economy and hard work-and
the careful manner in which she has
made the transfer and provided for the
maintenance of the home prove that
this much maligned woman has heen
thoroughly in earnest, though unfor-
tunate in method. Her gift is a noble
act of individual charity and many an
inmate who will find refuge within its
walls will have cause to remember
Carrie Nation with gratitude. There is
something of the pathetic in her own
words: II guess the people will re-
member the home long after they have
forgotten about Carrie Nation, that
obstreperous old woman with the AK
Chicago Tribune.

In Memory of N. W. Cason.

When called upon to chronicle
the death of a friend, there is q
feeling of sadness, the shadows
of which entomb my thoughts and
leave me only tears to fall, but
they are the sweetest emblems of
love and affection. We never
know how dear a friend is, until
we have lost him. In life we may
have alterations with those we
love, and feel estranged for q
time, but when death comes, all
bitterness takes it's flight, and in
the grave all grievances take their
sleep.
The subject of this notice was
a man who served his parish as
Police Juror for eight years, and
was devoted to the welfare of his
constituents-true to his friends
and affectionately indulgent with
his family. He was afflicted for
a number of years, but bore pa
tiently the ravages of that fatal
disease, consumption.
Mr.. M. W. Cason was born in
Bossier parish, July Is, 1850, and
died November %, 1908. He was
raised to manhood and served the
people who were his neighbors
from childhood, which shows a
good record. He may have had
a fault, but who of US is it that
has none? He was reconciled to
his fate, and met death as be-
comes a noble man, and smiled
| when he heard the rustic of an
| angels wing. To that widow and
lonely daughter, the writer ex-
tends his heartfelt sympathy in
this, their saddest hour. Remem-
Der that,
At the grave all his trials cease,
Which so often made you weep;
The troubled heart rests in peace,
For in the grave is painless sleep.
No more will tears of sorrow fall
| Peace to the weary soul is given;
Jesus bears his burdens all,
| And angels lead the way to Heaven.
