degree. He leaves q widow,
whose tender devotion for nearly
half q century made his home-life
an ideal one. and four children,
ell grown, who may we'll cherish
his honored name and memory.
His long and honored life in
this world, which he devoted to
the service of his God, his country
and his family is ended, but the
grief which his loved ones feel is
softened by the thought that an
other and higher life, filled with
that peace which ''passeth under
standing" has just begun.
May this thought console the
bereaved wife and children is the
hope of one who knew and loved
him, and who gratefully places
this poor tribute upon the grave
of his dead friend.-X, in Match

THE INTEREST m WATER WORKS.

The Sentinel is gratified to note
the interest manifested by nearly
every citizen since the articles on
this very important, all-absorbing
question of water have appeared
in these columns. We have not
interviewed a single property
owner who does not fully agree
with The Sentinel that a system
of water works is the most inn
portant utility that could be
brought out in WINFIELD, and all
agree with The Sentinel as to it
being owned by the town.
We have in mind a number of
towns and cities in this state, and
some of them with less than half
the population of Winfield, who
have their water works in opera
ton and are deriving consider
able revenue from the service,
besides having the fire protection
and the great convenience to the
housekeepers.
The Sentinel is aware that
there are many utilities needed in
Winfield besides water works,
but none of so much importance.
We are satisfied that the inaugu-
ration of a water system in the
town of Winfield would in no
way impair the prospects for the
Inauguration of any other prop
osition that would rebound to the
interests of the town, but would
be help and an incentive to
many industries coming into the
town. We think the time now is
ripe to begin the preliminaries
toward securing that much needed
improvement. We would sug-
gest that meeting of the citi-
zsns en- mass be held and the
matter discussed so as to get the
matter in a tangible form. We
know of no better way than for
the Honorable Mayor to call a
mass meeting for no distant day.
We know he is a progressive man
and feels the necessity Of prompt
action.

The statement has been given

The statement has been given
out by Hon Thomas ]. Keenan,
chairman, that the joint commit
tee of the legislature appointed
to draft a primary election law,
will convene for action on Febru-
airy 3. The entire committee is
requested to attend the meeting,
as a bill has been prepared and,
in the event of its approval, it
will be given to the public tor
criticism. No state needs fair
primary law worse than Louisiana.
Such a one would be calculated
to root out corrupt political meth
DDS and secure the popular pref
erence.-Manshled Journal.

A mysterious bed has develop
ed in the town of Pollock causing
great CONSERVATION among the
natives and making many believe
in hoodoo and other witchery.
There is nothing of an animal
nature about the place, but at
times the bed will take jumping
or moving spells as though some
thing had hold of it. Neighbors
and friends were called in and
they too witnessed the wonderful
contortions and movements of
the bed and to this day the whole
affair is shrouded in the deepest
mystery.-People's Demands.

SOME EXPLANATION NEEDED.

The summary dismissal of Mr..
D. N. Barrow as Assistant Direc-
tor of the North Louisiana Ex-
pertinent Station at Calhoun is
causing comment throughout
North Louisiana, and Mr.. Bar
rows statement. which appears
in another place in this paper,
calls for an explanation from the
Director. We think it due Mr..
Barrow that he be acquainted
with the reasons. Notwithstanding
"the DELEGATE nature of them"
Mr.. Barrow's statement inn
plies that the cause of the de-
crease in the efficiency of the
Calhoun station is due to the fact
that he did not have the proper
at the head of the de-
partment.
The public is entitled to hear
both sides Of this matter. Come,
gentlemen. Out with it. Every
man in the State is entitled to
know if there is a bug under the
chip"

DO PREACHERS EARN THEIR SALARIES.

Most people have an idea,
based upon nothing in particular
that a preacher is most fortu-
nate individual, with little or
nothing to do aside from preach
ing a sermon twice on Sunday,
conducting an occasional prayer
meeting. funeral or reading mar
rage service. For the rest, he
loafs around the house, takes din
nsr or tea with some good sister.
who gets out her best china and
choicest preserves for his Partic-
ular benefit, and gets through life
with little friction and no harass-
ment whatever; dies at last, and
goes straight to glory without
any trouble, after having lived
out his allotted time ION flowery
beds of case"
You needn't deny it, readers;
you know you think a preacher
has the "softest snap" that's
going.
Just for the fun of the thing,
and to find out for herself if all
this was true, S. and 0. inter-
viewed a certain little minister"
in Monroe on the subject. a jolly
round-faced happy looking
preacher who looks as if his path
was strewn with roses and life
with him was on easy street, "
and she has a preachers word for
it that this is what he did Sunday
and Monday: Sunday took ac-
tive part in FIVE services, made
several visits, studied until 1880
o'clock a. M, Monday walked
four miles, made eleven calls,
conducted private worship in four
homes, married couple, attended
a Juvenile meeting, wrote an ar
ticle for the press, drove all over
town and out into the country on
pastoral work. and wound up the
day with night meeting of some
sort. after which he again dove
into his books until midnight.

will not be stream in the parish

ate the parish from other parish

plan by which our roads could be
vastly improved.

DIED.
Mr.. James o. Maybin.

At his home near Grapes
Bluff in Natchitoches parish,
January Is, 1906, Mr.. J. o. May
bin; aged rs years.
Many of the older citizens OF
this State and many of the
younger ones too will be grieved
to learn of the death of this old
soldier and citizen, which Oc-
Cured at the old homestead near
Grapes Bluff in this parish on
the 18th instant.
Mr.. Maybin was born January
26, 1880, and hence was within
a few days of his 10th birthday
at the time of his death.
A native of Georgia, he came
to Louisiana and settled in Winn
parish when quite young man.
His first marriage was with Miss
Barr, of the above parish, who
died, while he was absent in the
army, leaving two children, one
of whom, Mrs. B. F. Land, sur
wives him. After the close of
the war he contracted q second
marriage with Mrs. N. P. Howell.
Seven children were born of this
union, four of whom are living.
Mr.. Maybln was gallant con-
federate soldier, and bravely per-
formed his duties as such
throughout the terrible struggle
between the States. Upon his
return he took a most active part
in the still more terrible struggle
which was waged by the people of
this country to throw off the in
tolerable burden of negro, carpet
Dag government.
He was a Master Mason of long
and high standing in the order,
faithful and Jealous in the per-
Torrance of his duties as such.
AS a citizen, Mr.. Maybin was
singularly patriotic and public
spirited, and though he. never
held or sought Office for himself,
he always took a prominent part
as a leader in this parish, which
has been his home since 1872. A
man of strong and pronounced
characteristics, he invariably
threw the weight of his influence
on the side which he believed
would make for better govern
ment and larger lberalities for
the people.
As husband, father and
friend Mr.. Maybin was tender,
loyal and hospital to a marked

THE QUESTION OF GOOD ROADS.

This is a subject that is of par
amount importance to the whole
parish of VIM, and we hope by
the time the Police Jury meets in
April that these gentlemen will
have formulated a plan whereby
a better system of roads can be
had. We think that if the MEM
bers would visit some of the
parishes which have changed
their system of working the roads
and see the condition of those
roads they would adopt the most
favorable plan. the one that
would give the greatest good for
the least money.
We note that the Jackson
parish Police Jury at their jan
uary meeting abolished the
old system and have set aside out
of the general tax levy two mills
on the dollar and fixed a per
capita tax. as we'll as on vehicles,
and have ordered an election for
