HIGH LICENSE.

The liquor license is one which
has been concerning the people
of this whole country since several
years, and high license seems to
be the only remedy to do away
with the low grog shops and close
the dens of crime. The parishes
of Louisiana which have been slow
in raising the liquor license. keep
their revenue down and keep the
criminal expenses high aud which
are growing higher year after year
and all due to these whiskey shops
that learn men how to become
gamblers, drunkards, disorderly
and finally criminals, and their
disorder and crimes creates. trou-
bles, shame, sorrow and grief, gen.
orally to the innocent ones, and
disgrace to those who have to serve
sentences for their crimes.
High license does away with the
low dens, only orderly and respec.
table places can afford to pay the
high license, and the number OF
liquor shops is greatly reduced,
while the revenues are greatly IN
creased and the criminal expenses
reduced to nearly nothing.
This is the condition now exist
ing in st. Martin parish. and yet
at the last session of the Police
jury We learn that an effort was
made to have the Jury reduce the
license from $1,000 to $500 which
matter was laid upon the table to
be taken up at the next meeting OF
the Police Jury. but we hope that
none of our Police Jurors will be
willing to please Limited rev 10
return to the past conditions OF
this parish, those times of dlsor-
der and crimes which existed dur
ing the time of the cross-road grog
shops; We have faith in the Police
Jury to believe that they will
without one exception, maintain
the high liquor license in this pa
rish.
All the parishes around US have
high license, Iberia was the only
one having $500 license. which
we are pleased to say has been
raised to $1,000 to take effect on
January LIST next.
We must maintain high license.

SAD DEATH.

A few minutes after two o'clock
Monday afternoon, the 18th inst,
the sad news was announced of
the death of Mrs. Anna Elizabeth
Franz, TIE beloved wife of Mr..
John j. Burdin. Mrs. Burdin was
sick only two or three days. and
Sunday evening her condition was
considered serious, and death was
expected at every moment, but
those who loved her SO dearly,
those close to her hoped that a
change would take place and that
her life would be spared. but me-
dical science, tender nursing love
and affections were of no avail,
death was inevitable, and at ten
minutes after two O'Clock she
breathed her last surrounded by
her dear ones.
Mrs. Burdin was a dutiful wife,
loving mother, kind friend,
she posed to a very large extent
the noblest of all virtues, che was
charitable to a fault; nothing plea
sed her better than to be able to
assist some one in need, and none
appealed to her without results.
Her words were always sweet,
kind and encouraging; she was a
christian in the full force of the
term, and her good deeds proved
that she was possessed of a soul
that was pure and noble.
Mrs. Burdin leaves a husband,
several children, brothers and sis.
ters to mourn her untimely death
we say intimely as Mrs. Burdin
was in the prime of her life, be-
ing Sc years, II months and Is
days. She was buried at 4;30
o'clock Tuesday afternoon from
the Catholic Church and her re-
mains were followed to the grave
by a large concourse of sorfowing
relatives and friends.

Whistlina for Exercise.

Whistling for Exercise.
Whistling is the newest fad put
forth by IN" health seekers, and the
possible result OF such an exercise
coming into universal practice fills
one with dire thoughts for the future.
Unfortunately. all who whistle are
not experts, and the idea OF all the
members Of household indulglng in
the mournful sounds which some
times issue from some gifted throat is
anything but pleasing
It certainly does away with the old
adage which most women have had
thrown at them in their tomboy days:

ways come to some bad ends"

THE RopIcK HOUSE.
Passing of Names Pioneer summer
Hotel at Bar Barbor.

ffENth AAA a4tAt%ANN ~Sf'fs Afstft
The approaching demolition of the old
Rodick house at Bar Harbor marks the
passing of famous landmark in the his
tory OF Names summer business. The
Rodick house was Names pioneer hotel,
and from this interesting old structure
has sprung the entire summer resort in
dustry OF Maine.
1t is with mingled feelings that Bar
Harbor sees the historic old structure go
into the hands of the wreckers. For
twenty-five Years il has stood as bull
wark between the present and the past,
looking down from It's high and weather
beaten tower upon the steady growth OF
Names most famous resort. II has seen
the town pass through "boom times and
a sudden flush Of inflated prosperity, seen
the bitter effects Of the bursting Of the
bubble. and watched the town grow
steadily, slowly and surely. until to-day
its position in the very from front rank of
Americas famous watering places Is un-
questioned.
Ii is without any feeling Of regret, how
ever, that the old hotel viii be seen no
more. For. year after year. the big, empty
building has stood grim and forbidding
on the most commanding part of the main
street, a relic Of Bar Harbor's glory in
the days when the hotels swarmed with
young Hoods. II has always been a
menace to the town II tire shouId ever
break out in its vast bulk, for with high
wind not all the combined fire depart
mcnts in Eastern Maine could save the
town from destruction.
The Rodick house was Bar Harbor's
foremost hotel In the oldcn days. Early
in the 'forties and 'fifties, David Rodick
and his sons kept boarding house for
the accommodation OF the artists and
travellers who came 10 view the beauties
of the then unknown Mount Desert, and
to paint the wild scenery Of the island.
In the course OF years, as the number OF
tourists increased as the beauties OF the
island became known, and modest little
frame structure arose in what Is now Main
street.
AS business prospercd, and the tide OF
summer travel set TO Maine La the seven
ties, addition after addition was built,
until in 1881 the mammoth Rodick house
as ii stands at present was built for the
accommodation OF the summer traffic. 1t
was a magnificent achievement for those
days, and was the largest hotel In Maine.
People came from miles around just TO
see this marvel in hotel building. The
house contained some 500 rooms, and was
deliberately equipped for those days.
Other hotels followed in Its train, and Bar
Haroor soon had colony Of hotels OF
splendid sire and accommodations for
those times. Hotel guests came by the
thousands, and the big buildings were the
centers of life and activity such as is
hardly seen at n Maine resort in these
days.
From its position and its size the big
Rodick house was the center Of the resort 3
