gregational church, who for the past
several weeks has been i'll with an at
tack of typhoid fever, is so far recov-
cred that he expects to leave for his
former home in Chicago during this
week. His condition is such that his
doctor has advised that he should not
resume his work until fall, and in order
to make some plans for supplying the
pulpit during his absence, a meeting
of the church and society was held
Sunday morning after the regular ser
vices No definite action was taken as
opinion Is divided as to whether they
should employ supplies for each Sun
day or secure some pastor for the en-
tire summer. Another meeting Will be.
held on Wednesday evening when the.
committee, composed Of Mrs. j. f.
Meeker, w. j. Fort and W. M. Clark,
that has the matter in charge, VIII re-
port and definite action will probably
then be taken. The enforced absence
of Rev. Sinden is a source or regret
to his congregation and friends.

Death Of IL. a. VanllcrCruySS SSen.


H. A. VanderCruyssen died at
his home in Lafayette last Satur-
day night. He was fOrtyfOur
years old and he had been a resi-
dent of this town for about ten
years. Although native of
Belgium, his life work was ac-
comPIished in this country, and
he had become thoroughly iden-
titled with our government and
institutions. When but youth
he arrived in New Orleans, and
after remaining there a short
while, he made BreauX Bridge
his home until about ten years
ago when he came to Lafayette
to assume the management of
, The Advertiser, having been
editor of paper in Breaux
Bridge before removing his
domicile here.
Mr.. VanderCruyssen was Il
sufferer for the last few months
of his life, but he bore the inevi-
table with Christian fortitude
and resignation.
His loss will be felt by the
community, as he had always
been an active participant in all
that meant the progress of the
town. OF an inventive genius,
his talented handiwOrk was gen
erously offered to any organiza-
tion aiming at the public veal.
He was married to Miss Con-
stance BrOuSSard, of Breaux
Bridge, and besides his widow,
he leaves five little children, who
mourn the untimely taking off of
a husband and father.
The funeral of the deceased
was held in ST. Johns Catholic
church, Rev. Fathers E. Forge
and Mattern, S. j., officiating.
Father Mattern euloSized the
virtues of the dead in appropriate
words of consolation and SYM
pathy.
The body was inferred in the
Catholic cemetery at Breaux
Bridge.

Progressing Back ward.

From the Shoe and Leather Gazette.
The Gazette recently noted a
statement that the grOcers of
Benton Harbor, Michigan, were
all keeping their stores open till
ten O'Clock at night, one firm
going even farther than that and
keeping open all night long.
This is progressing backward,
with vengeance. There may
be good reasons for keeping the
stores open till ten o'clock on
perhaps one or at most two
nights in the week, but till ten
O'Clock every night is utter
fOOlery.
A shoe store, or a general
store keeping shoes, might not
be affected by such action on the
part of the grocers, although
the example would have it's in
tiuence on the buying public,
and would tend to lead them to
demand that all stores remain
open late.
And the public would not buy
a dollars worth more, one week
with another, than they would
buy if the stores closed at a de-
cent time of day-nOt a dollars
worth.
In cities, there is necessary
night work that keeps a certain
part of the population Ga small
part) up all night, and it is ne
cessary that they be fed, etc.
Therefore allnight restaurants
are needful institutions.
But these same people can,
and do, buy their goods in day
time. There is no need of keep
ing the stores open for them, no
call for it, and consequently no
stores are open.
1t is only in the smaller towns
that the idea Of working clerks
"a hours a day becomes the ap-
parent ideal that the stOrekeep-
ers strive to attain.
And the trouble very often is,
that some one among the lot who
was born with only half the
quota of legs that nature in
tended to give him when fur
niShing forth his mental equip
ment, insists upon waiting to
grab the last cent in sight
when the same cent would come
to him hours earlier, if it had to
come then or wait till morning.
1t is progressing backward to
unduly increase the length of
the store-keeping day. There
is nothing in it, and it is con-
trary to the best business prin,
cipleS.

School Notes.

Owing to the difficulty, at first,
of securing the services of COM
petent carpenters to take charge
of the construction of school
houses in the parish, the work
of building these was delayed for
a long time. but the "building
committee" of the School Board
finally succeeded in making all
necessary arrangements to in
sure the completion of the school
houses most urgently needed, in
time for the opening of the cur
rent term of the rural schools.
Work on the Begnaud school
building in the first ward and
the Albert Duhon school build
ing in the eighth ward is already
far advanced. and both of these
buildings are being substan-
italy constructed and will pres
ent a very tasteful appearance
when completed.
The Romero school in the
fourth ward will be the next one
to receive the attention of the
building committee, and work
ON the new school at DusOn will
be taken up as soon as the land
shall have been decided to the
School Board according to agree
ment.
It is the intention of the Board
to equip these new buildings
with modern school furniture
and fixtures so as to make
school work as pleasant and as
profitable as possible to the pu-
pills in attendance.
If we expect our children to
live the beautiful and love the
beautiful, we must surround
them with beautiful influences in
home and school. A child is
educated by every influence
with which becomes in contact;
is being changed for better or
for worse every moment of his
life.
Ruskin has said: what we
like determines what we are;
and to teach taste is inevitabl
to form character. Parents
and patrons should be- stimu-
lated to embellish the school
room and improve and beautify
the school grounds, and the
children should be encouraged
to feel that these belong to them,
that they may have an opportu
nifty to make them what they
should be. If this be done we
shall find that we have taken an
important step toward giving
the principles taught inside the
schoOl-house, an opportunity for
expression in the life of the
child.
The public school aims at a
development Of all the faculties,
with the ultimate purpose of
leading to better citizenship and
nobler character. 1t must not,
there fore, neglect any opportu-
nifty for broadening the expe-
rience upon which to build the
essentials for a complete life,
and in educating a child in the
laws of symmetry and propOr-
tiOn. and in cultivating child S
love for flowers and trees we un-
dou btedly have helped to lay the
foundation of enduring char
acter.

Sacred to the Memory Oh NrS.
j. q. ParkersOn.
'.God lent her all good things that mortals
And I'D her steps through pleasant ways
and gave
With lavish hand all gifts with pleasure
rife.
And with loves prism, her snowy brow He
touched,'
On the bright, glorious morn
ing of the hallowed day of All
Saints, her beautiful soul re-
turned again to it's Maker. Sur
rounded by her SOrrOwing fam
lily, she passed through the dark
valley, and as her loved ones bade
goodbye, angels joyously led
her to the pearly portals that
stood ajar to receive one of Gods
own children, and methinks we
heard the Masters voice saying,
well done, good and faithful
servant, enter thou into eternal
life."
Hers was life of unselfish
devotion to her children and her
home. She reared a large family
to useful wOmanhOod and man.
hood, and they, in return, lavished
all their love on her and soothed
her declining years, and truly do
we believe that 'her children
will arise and call her blest.''
To the aged husband, who is
thus left to mourn the loss of a
devoted companion, do we in
mingled pain and grief, extend
the sincerest sympathy, and
pray that God will give to him
the peace that passeth all under
standing. This world is better
for her having lived in it, for she
was a woman of superior judg-
ment, giving good counsel, a
cheering word, and a bright
smile to all who passed her way.
Those who knew her best, loved
her most, and many are the
friends who will miss her from
her accustomed place. Her
death was the close of a noble
Christian life-a life of devotion
to her God, and as she lay beauti
full in death, we realized that she
had not lived in vain, but that
her sweet presence would be
felt in her home in after years,
and that the influence of her
Christian life would go down
through the ages, a beacon-light
to guide the faltering footsteps
as memorial of her saintliness,
the little church which was so
dear to her heart, and which, but
for her beneticence, we would
not enjoy. 1t bespeaks her
great desire to influence others
to follow in the paths her steps
had trod. Truly, they were
paths of peace and righteous
ness, leading to a beautiful home
beyond the skies, where wife,
mother, and friend awaits the
loved ones for whom she never
ceased to pray. God grant that
as the golden chain is severed on
earth, so may it be joined again
in heaven.
Farewell, dear one,
Thy work is done,
To God we leave the rest
A LOVING FRIEND.

The Coming of John Mitchell

The coming to Colorado Of John
Mitchell, president OF the United Mine
Workers Of America, for the purpose
Of investigating the causes Of the strike
IN the Southern coal fields Is an event
of great moment to the people of the
state as upon it depends in great
measure, at least, the continuance or
the termination of the embargo now
laid upon the coal mining industry.
Mr.. Mitchell arrived at Trinidad yea
terday morning, but what course he
will recommend in regard to the strike
is purely conjectural, although there
is reason for believing that he will urge
moderation on the part Of the strikers,
and. perhaps, a return to work without
exacting a recognition Of the miners
union by the coal operators.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Mitchell can see
his way clear to recommend termi-
nation OF the strike, which has already
proven serious matter to the ad-
herents Of both sides Of the pending
controversy.
