HITCH IN CONSOLIDATION
Especial to The Herald

Modena, Aug 10.-It is reliably reported
that the syndicate formed in Chicago TO
take over the principal properties of the
Gold Springs district has been adversed
to some extent. Rival interests have been
Sparring for the Jennie mine for some
time, and ii is now understood that the
Jennie is not included in the proposed
scheme Of consolidation but is actually
working at this time under a tentative
arrangement by which complete surveil-
lance of mine performance is accorded
Los Angeles capitalists for fifteen days
under the eyes of a competent expert.
Should the mill and mine performances
come up to representations, it is claimed
that the Jennie owners will be paid the
price asked by them. What the figure is
is not dSceTtaindble. but is said to be
fully UP to the amount. II not more than

that the famous Snowflake property is

a twO-thirdS interests in the ground and
satisfactorily closed matters with R. NJ

glad to have her help. and none OF US
put on any frills with her. and she was
not compelled to put on any frills Of
cap or apron with US. Outlines, espe-
cially In the quiet country places, her
social standing was as good as that Of
anybody else. Usually she was one of
a grown family Of girls There was
plenty of help at her house, and so she
came and assisted our mother at our
house. In their hours Of ease mother
and she discussed the neighborhooc
gossip together. The "hired girl" had
her beau, a neighbor's stolid. sheepish
son, and much was she joked about
him, and finally. after years Of faithful
and friendly seryitude. she married
him. We went to the wedding. and 1t
was quite a social affair, with much
temperate merriment and with many
cheap but useful presents.-Eyery-

A Celebrated Clock.

The art of the clockmaker has
achieved many remarkable triumphs
during many centuries. Sometimes 1t
is q clock wonderful for the complex
ty Of its movements and Its busy popu-
lation Of automatons that attracts our
admiration. like that in the Cathedral
OF Strassburg. At other times the i'm
mense size Of the machinery and the
dials excites establishment. This is the
case with the celebrated clock in the
tower Of the Church of st. Rombaut at
Mechlin. A writer in La Nature thinks
this clock possesses the largest dials
that exist in the world. There are four
Of them, one on each side of the great
square tower, and their extreme diam
eter is nearly thirty-seven and one-half

Promises to the Dying.

A clergyman. discussing unhappy
lore affairs, said:
.sMany a love tragedy is caused by
a husbands promise to a dying wife
that he will not marry again. He
thinks when he makes this promise
that it will be easy to keep. Whether
it Is easy or hard to keep, it lis q
promise rarely If ever broken. Time
and time again widowers have sought
me out for advice on this subject.
They are in love, but they promised
their dead wives not to marry again.
Shall they break or keep this PROMISE
I can only advise them to do as their
conscience dictates. At the same time
I think it Is selfish Of dying wives to
extract such promises from their bro
ken hearted husbands. Such prom
ises, by the way. are rarely extracted
by dying husbands from broken heart
ed wives. But, then. when the dead
husbands will Is read 1t Is usually
found that Ii the widow marries again
the money is all taken from her. So
1t comes to the same thing in the end,

ROAD TAX AN EVIDENCE OF PROGRESS
As we have stated before we
wanted a full and free discussion
of the road tax and are willing to
open our columns to argument on
that question, but will not toll
crate any personalities or threets,
such matters will find the waste
basket.
Now as to the division of the
funds, we are perfectly willing
for the Police Jury, after they
have visited and inspected the
work that IS being done by other
parishes, to do as they think best,
when men say they will vote
against the tax unless it is done
the way they want it done, is an
evidence that they are opposed to
the proposition, such talk is too
much like the old story of the
dog in the manger.
What we need and should have
for the best interest of the
parish, is good system of roads
and If it takes some of the taxes
of ward one to make the roads
good In ward seven, we say let
them have it, the idea is to have
good roads in every part of the
parish, and if a three mill tax.
per capita tax and wheel tax will
not produce enough money, we
say let the Police Jury set aside
the proper amount out of the
general levy to make it enough.
Will it not be the interest of the
whole parish for any one section
to have good roads?
Our Police Jurors are fair
minded men and their actions
for the past two years have
shown them to be progressive,
they have gotten out of -old ruts
or way of doing, some have an
idea that the only function of a
Police Juror is, to look after the
paupers in the ward, appoint
overseers of roads, grant new
roads to every body's house and
draw their pittance of milage
and per diem.
The police Jury of VIM have
shown that they are made of
different material, they have
grasped the situation, and know
that if we do not get our roads, in
shape before all of the timber is
taken off of the lands that we
can not hope to get immigration
here to cultivate them, when q
prospective immigrant, would
come they would see at once
that our people were q hundred
years behind the age and would
not want TO live among US.
We have too much confidence
Ia the good people of Vim
parish, to think they would not
be willing to contribute fifteen
cents SO that the capitalist could
contribute eighty-fve cents to-
wards building up our roads,
schools aud citizenship.
Give Us good roads. then good
and desirable citizens will come
and look at our country and
return. they will carry back with
them the fruits. by telling what
splendid roads, schools and
churches re have in VIM and in
! short time they will return and
bring their families and friends
and be of US.
There was never an age that
did not have crokers, and there
never will be, but the time has
erriyed for every man who has
the interest Of the parish e

the matter of the election in
Winfield in the election for
water works, the crokers were in
Winfield but the time had ar
rived in the growth of Winfield
that water works was . necessity
recognized by every one, and
they so recorded their votes.
The time has arrived in the
entire parish of VIM when good
roads are a necessity and we hope
that the good people of the
parish will throw aside their
petty ward jelocies and work for
and vote for the advancement of
the entire parish.

IS CHARGED WITH GRATING.
New York Guardsmen Interested ir
Trial of Captain Wendell.

NEW YORK, March 19.-National
guard circles are much interested in
the trial by court martial of Captain
Louis Wendell of the First Battery,
National guard, against whom charg-
es of grating were made some time
ago, The court is to meet at the First
battery armory tonight for formal or
ganization
The court of inquiry which investi-
gated the charges made against Cap
tain Wendell reported that that officer
had shared to the extent of over $4,000
in the wages OF the janitor of the
armory; that he got $500 from the
engineer and 1926 from the assistant
engineer al the armory.
1t is further alleged against Wendell
that he abetted the sale of liquor at
social functions in the armory and
that he shared in the profits there
from.
