NEWS IN BRIEF.
A Budget of Interesting Items Gathered
by a Caucasian Representative

Nine. Melba's recent visit to this
country has inspired several magazine
articles which abound in picturesque
features of the famous singers girl
hood life in Australia, her native home
Melba's maiden name was Nellie
Mitchell. Her father was a cold, formal
man, and rigid Presbyterian in relig-
ion. Old Dave" Mitchell. as he was
familiarly called. was millionaire of
the island continent, but despite his
wealth he lived plainly with his five
motherless children in the big farm
house on his Gippsland acres. Nellie
was harun- scarun1, fond of horses, dogs
and wild animals She scandalized the
neighborhood by her wild pranks and
freaks, and for this she was sent to the
Presbyterian Ladies' college in East
Melbourne. A year later for some
girlsh mischief she was expelled from
school, but not before the beauty of her
voice had been recognized by music
lovers in Melbourne
She had many admirers and was soon
betrothed to a young man named Arm
strong, whom she married. The mar
riage was not happy one, and Nellie
Armstrong, with warm, loving, but
disappointed heart had to face the world
alone.
She soon realized that art, music and
literature were unhonored in her native
home. and that "overseas" must she go
for fame
This was written years ago In the
European capitals and America she be-
came famous as Nine Melba. and re-
turned to her native land the gifted
of song.
Melbourne had never witnessed such
an ovation as that which attended the
arrival of the Australian singer. High
society that had ostracized her as wild
Mel Mitchell, now delighted to honor
her. In Sidney, Adelaide, Brisbane and
other cities her triumphs were repeated,
and even the stern old man, her father,
whose unlovely ideas of life had virtu-
ally driven her out into the world, for
gave her in listening to the divine nle1o-
dy of her voice. But the bitter root of
old domestic trouble was still alive to
poison her life and she sailed away
again to the cities of the Western world,
where she has recently delighted thou
sands.

CONGRESSMAN BREAZEALE.

Trickery, fraud and bribery are
charged by the Natchitoches Times
against Congressman Phanor Rrea-
zeale in the matter of the government
building in that city, and the railroad
bridge across Cane river The Times
charges that Mr. Breazeale has been
corruptly influenced by bribery, both as
to the government building and the
bridge, and says that such secret and
clandestine operations On the part of
congressman is a shame and a disgrace
to the country, dishonorable on the part
of the individual, and detriment to the
political party sending such man to
Congress- In an article of column
and a half the Times states the inward
ness OF the transaction and sums up
with the sentence quoted. Mr.. Brea-
zeeale will now have to do some tall
explaining, or he is ruined man for
all time-Colfax Chronicle .-. :
There is only one thing left for Mr..
Breazeale and he must challenge his
aceuser for the proof However, when
the explanation follows, it will doubt
less develop that Congressman Brea-
zeale is not and has not been SO bad
as described. The Caucasian would
never venture on such 4 publication un-
less it had the proofs positive to s,rs-
tain it, and would then stick to the
facts, regardless of consequences and
consideration. It is, or should be, a
very serious offense for any newspaper
to indulge in insinuations, allegations Or
charges against any man which it can
not prove. Has the Natcfitoches Times
the proofs of its assertions
