character of land, its yield and
the methods of cultivation, and
has given especial attention to the
public school system.

appertain to the purpose of his

DEATH OFMr. W. &c. A US7IN.

At half-past one o'clock, SUM-
day morning, the 18th inst, Mr..
w. j. G. Austin, one of the oldest
and most highly respected citizens
of this town, was called to his
last, long rest.
Mr.. Austin was an Englishman
by birth. In 1851 he first made
his home in St. Joseph, where he
was later married to Miss Jennie
Loudon, whose father was high
ly respected citizen of this parish.
His widow and eldest daughter,
Mrs. Walter Rutherford, survive
him.
In the lean years and in the
times of plenty, in peace and in
days of civil strife he has been
loyal to his adopted home, cast
ing his lot with that of his neigh
bors, doing his full part in what
ever seemed for the best in the
land where he had made his home.
Although he never foreswore his
allegiance to Great Britain nor
lost his identity as an English
man, he was none-the-less a good
American, a Southerner in his
sympathies and wore the Confed-
crate gray for four long years.
Mr.. Austin had many friends
who watched at his bedside with
hearts, and when the
sable messenger had borne away
his spirit, gathered at his last
earthly resting place to offer their
last sad tribute.
He was LAID to rest beside the
grave of his youngest daughter,
the spreading limbs of forest |
monarch, outstretched in benedic-
ton, casting its restful shade in
symbol of peace eternal.
Mr.. Austin was Master Mason |
Ind after the service at the home, |
which was conducted by Rev. Mr.. |
Javitt, the body was placed in
charge of the members of the local |
odge of that Order, who conduct
ID the interment with the solemn
md impressive ceremonies dedi-
'ated to such rights.

A Rail readers Prayer.

The story is related that an old
rail road worker was converted
and being present at q meeting at
which there we're many inquiries,
was asked to lead in prayer. He
hesitated moment, and then
with a trembling but clear re-
sounding voice, he said, reverent-
ly:
"Oh, Lord, now that / have
tagged thee, lift up my feet from
the rough road of life and plant
them safely on the deck of the
train of salvation. Let me use
the safety lamp known as pru-
dence and make all the couplings
in the train with the strong link
of love, and let my hand lamp be
the bible. And, Heavenly Father,
keep all switches closed that lead
off on the sidings, especially those
with q blind end. o Lord, if it
be Thy pleasure, have every SEM
aphore block along the line show
the white light of hope, that /
may make the run of life without
And, Lord, give ms the
Ten Commandments for the sched-
ule, and when / have finished the
run on schedule time and pulled
into the great dark station of
Death, may the superintendent
Of the Universe say: well done,

receive your check for eternal
happiness.

THE VISIT OF THE ITALIAN
AMBASSADOR.

Baron.d es Planches, the Italian
ambassador, who is now making
. tear through Mississippi, LOUIS
lana and Texas in the interest of

intendent w. T. Tyler, Industrial
Agent D. e. King, Gen'l. Passen-
ger Agent H. G. Townsend, all
officials of that road, and Hon.
4, D. Bowen, of Paris, Texas.
The party was met at Tallulah
by a committee from Tensss par
ish, who accompanied them to
this point. At Balmoral, a few
miles north of Newellton, the
ambassador was taken to see
colony of his countrymen who are
engaged in cotton planting on
that plantation.
The party arrived at ST. Joseph
5P. NJ, when an informal recep-
ton was rendered them at the

ed by ladies and gentlement from
all portions of the parish and
where the Baron met the repre-
sentative Italians from this par
ish.

short but happily chosen address.

and cultivation, along the banks
Of beautiful Lake Bruen and Lake

splendid timber lands, showing to
advantage the opportunities aud
Inducements offered by this fertile
and progressive land to laborers
and home-seekers. 1t is not sur
pr1sing that the Baron and his
party were pleased with their trip
and the cordial reception they met
en- every hand.
The result of ambassador des
Ranches visit to this parish will
be looked forward to with inter-
est and, every proper inducement
should be offered to attract home
seekers from HE country to, locate !
on our fertile lands.
