ANSWERED THE CALL.

William James Crowder died in Shreve-
port Saturday morning, aged Y years and
8 months. On April Is, 1861, the deceased
left with the Shreveport Grays, the first
military company organized in that city,
for the Confederate Army. The Grays
was one of the companies constituting the

Among the prominent men of Shreve-
port who first saw service in the Grays

at the Battle of Mansfield and Marks was
mortaliy wounded at the Siege of Vicks-
burg, and died within a short time after
being conveyed to his home in Shreveport.

the front during the Consederate War, but
none truer to friend and country than Leon
d. Marks. Hodge was elected to the Con-
federate Congress from this district, and
died while he was Member of Congress
Brigadier- General Henry Gray was elected
to fill the unexpired term. Williamson
served on the staff of Lieutenant General
Leonidas Polk with the rank of Major, and

TOWNSHIP FUND.
New Orleans Picayune. ]

The State to-day paid out interest to the
different parishes amounting to S65, 612.70
as the interest due the several townships
throughout the State for the year 1906,
being the per cent on the amount realized
from the sale of sixteenth section school
lands in the different parishes. When
sixteenth section school land is sold the
State Treasurer receives the money, and
the State, in effect, places it out a per
cent interest to the credit of the township
in which the land is sold. The per cent
interest on this land is paid out once a
year. With the S65, 612.70 paid out to the
different townships by the State to the
credit Of the public schools, and the

apportionment of the common school fund
made this year, the State Treasurer has
paid out total of $685., O87.5 to the public

HIGH CHARACTER.

Understanding spring in therespect
that all men pay to those among them VINO
are spontaneously and generally recognlz-
ed as Of being of high character. There
are very many men of good character who
are respected or admired by those who are
familiar with them, but who have not es-
tablished such reputation as to inspire
general confidence. They may be entitled
to the distinction that comes to men of high
character, but they are not sufficiently well
known to command general admiration.
Once in a great while, however, an honest,
sincere man is drawn into the public view.
If he can withstand 1.-the fierce light that
beats upon throne or appear IN that
light to be without moral fault he becomes
a popular idol, for men respect moral as
well as intellectual or physical force. More
over. q man of high character is generally
strong in other ways. Honesty and sim
cerity Of purpose are virtues common to the
great majority of men. They become OF
vital force only when joined with intellec-
tuality and indomitable will power. The
man who is eminent alike for his moral
force, his intelligence and his virility Is
out of the ordinary, and, if circumstances
should bring him into public notice he IS
sure to inspire respect or awaken warmer
feeling of regard. 1t is creditable to hui
mainly that men of unquestionably high
character thus inspire admiration and be-
come leaders among men. The influence
of their example is beneficent, and they
arouse in us an admiration for virtue itself.
Hero worship is not confined to worship OF
the individual; it implies admiration for
the qualities that make the hero, and these
qualities are not always prowess in battle
or intellectual force; they are sometimes,
and preferably, moral qualities. And no
man can admire these qualities without the
desire to develop them within himself. He
may not be able to do so to such an extent
as to make him prominent among men, but
the desire itself to be honest, fearless,
forceful, an agent of good, the enemy OF
wrong and injustice, is helpful and uplift-
ing. The man of high character helps those
who admire him by inspiring them with
the desire to emulate his example. Virtue
in the abstract commands our formal re-
spect; it becomes a vitalizing inspiration
only when associated with some one whose
acts we see. Hence the Importance to the
community of men of high character in
public life. They guide their followers te
better living and awaken in them dispo-
sition to cherish the virtues. The young
are greatly helped in building up good
character by keeping before them some
living ideal who not only commands their
respect but excites their enthusiastic ad-
miration. The ideal may not be altogether
perfect, but he should at least have the
higher moral qualities-be honest, frank
sincere and truthful-for these are the
qualities that build up good character anG
become the foundation Of high reputation

Murders Sister Connected With Mil

Milwaukee, Dec. { Sister Theresa,
a nurse at St Mary's hospital in this
city, was shot and killed by Gustav
Wirth, aged thirty-two, who is sup
posed to be insane. The assassin fled
after having fired four shots into the
woman's body, but was captured after
being chased several blocks and
lodged in the police station. Wirth
Was operated upon at the hospital
about year ago and, it is said,
showed signs of insanity at that time.
When Wirth called at the hospital
he was admitted by the sister supe
rior. He informed her that he wished
tc see some one else. Shortly after
ward Sister Theresa, who assists in
receiving patients, put in an appear
ance and upon seeing her the assassin
began a fusillade, firing four shots
into the victims body Sister Theresa
died in a few minutes.

which he said he fired the shots be-
cause the hospital officials tried to
poison him.

Lost Two Fingers.

Louis Ross, colored man we'll

on his left hand, Christmas, as re-
suit of a fall while scufling.
Ross has been working in the
camps of Olson & Gordon near Shev-
lin, where that firm is cutting timber
this winter.
Yesterday, Mr.. Olson took a key
of beer out to the camps, and the
lumber jacks INDUCED quite freely in
the amber fuid''. They got TO
scuffling and wrestling, and while
Ross was in a particularly strenuous
bout, he slipped and fell, his left
hand striking on the blade of an axe
and entirely Severing the third and
fourth fingers of his hand.
Ross came to Bemidji and DR..
Shannon dressed the injured member
for him. Ross was in the city today
and it is possible that he may be a
county charge until his injured hand
heals sufficiently to permit his going
to work.
