General Leon Jastremski died at
his home in Baton Rouge at 2:05
o'clock yesterday morning.
The distinguished sufferer was
surrounded by all the members Of
his family, who had been sum-
moned early in the night when it
was apparent that the end was not
far off.
The last moments Of Gen. Jas
tremski's life were peaceful. He
had lapsed into Inconsistencies
Thursday, and death came while
he lay in this state of coma:
The General was stricken with
apoplexy a week ago last Tuesday
night, after he had retired in ap-
parently good health. The rigors
and worries of the veterans cam

is believed, had much to do with
his death, com bined with seem =
ingly slight sickness which devel-
oped two or three months ago.
The. passing away Of Gen. Jas
tremski makes a great change in
the race for the c overnorship of
the State of Louisiana, leaving as
it does, only two candidates in the
field.
After a period of surprising i'm
provement, even holding out hope
of recovery, Gen. Jastremsh yes
terday morning began growing
worse, and his condition through
out the day was as bad as at any
time since he had been stricken.
This latest sinking spell found
the General decidedly weakened,
due o.his long state of paralysis.

About eight o'clock Wednesday
night several explosions were
heard in the resident section of
this city, which were identified for
pistol shots. Several citizens, head
ed by Marshal Hayes, rushed to
the scene of disturbance, and pro-
ceeded to locate the house in
which the shots were fired. It
proved to be Joe Monroe's home
corner of Oak and Vine streets.
He stated that reports We're from
frecrackers he shot. Marshal
Hayes reprimanded Joe and warn

The crowd then dispersed for their

From the following telegram
from Kansas City, Mo-, it will be
seen that in a short time the
Kansas City Southern rail
way will be operating trains into
and out of Opelousas via DeQuin-
cy. While Opelousas is not men
toned in the telegram, it is an
absolute certainty that trains will
be run into this place. The teleg-
ram, sent out on Nov. 25th,
reads:
The Kansas City Southern Rail-
way Company has completed ar
rangements by which the road
will have an entrance into New Or
leans by Jan. 1st. The Beau
mont, Sour Lake and West
ern Railroad, a part of the Colo
RADIO Southern, New Orleans and
Pacific system, that is to extend
from New Orleans to Houston, has
entered into a trackage arrange
ment with the Southern by which
it will operate its trains over that
road between. Port Arthur and
Beaumont. The Beaumont, Sour
Lake and Western railroad runs
between Houston and Beaumont,
where it will connect with the.
Newx0rleans division, which is
now being built on with the line
which will connect with the Hi
nois Central at Baton Rouge. The
tracks of the illinois Central into
New Orleans will be used.
The trackage arrangement with
the Southern also provides for the
use of the Southern tracks be-
tween Beaumont and De Quincy,
at which point connection is made
with the New Orleans division. In
return for the use of it's track the
Southern has been granted the
privilege of using the tracks Of the
Colorado Southern, New Orleans
and Pacific between De Quincy
and Baton Rouge, from which
point it will enter New Orleans
over the tracks of the Illinois
Central. The trackage arrange
ment will go into effect Jan. 1st.
The effect of the new arrangement
will be to give the Rock Island
Frisco interests, which control the
Colorado Southern, New Orleans
and Pacific, a direct entrance to
Port Arthur and New Orleans.

DIED A BEGGAR.
The Pathetic Career of John Stow,
the English Antiquary.

The Pathetic Career Of John Stow,
the English Antiquary.
John Stow, the celebrated English
antiQuary, was remarkable man. He
was born Of poor parents about 1925
and brought up to the tailor's trade.
For forty years his life was passed
among needles and thread, but in the
few leisure hours which his trade al
lowed him he had always been a fond
reader Of legends, chronicles. histories
and all that told Of the times that
were past. BY such reading he grew
to be so attached to old memoirs that
when about forty years of age he
threw down his needle, devoted him.
self to collecting them and followed
his new profession with the faith and
enthusiasm Of an apostle. Short Of
means, he made long journeys afoot
to hunt over and ransack colleges and
monasteries, and, no matter how worn
and torn might be the rags Of old pa
pers which he found, he kept all, re-
viewing, connecting, copying, compar-
ing, annotating, with truly wonderful
ability and good sense. Arrived at
fourscore years and no longer capable
Of earning a livelihood, he applied to
the king, and James l., consenting to
his petition, granted to the man who
had saved treasures Of memoirs for
English history the favor Of wearing a
beggar's garb and asking aims at
church doors. In this abject state,
forgotten and despised, he died two
years later.

A SENSE OF DIRECTION,
The Prime Requisite For Making q
True WOOdsman.

The Prime Requisite For Making q
True WoOdsman.
A sense of direction l should name
as the prime requisite for him who
would become true woodsman, de-
pending on himself rather than on
guides. The faculty is largely devel-
oped of course by much practice, but
it must be Unborn. Some men possess
it, others do not just as some men
have mathematical bent, while to
others figures are always a despair. It
is a sort of extra, having nothing to
do with criterions of intelligence or
mental development, like the repeater
movement in watch. A highly edu-
Gated, cultured man may lack it; the
toughest possess it. Some who have
never been in the woods or mountains
acquire in the space of vacation
fair facility at picking way, and
have met few who have spent their
lives on the prospect trail and who
were still and always would be as
helpless as the newest city dweller.
1t is gift, talent. If you have its
tiniest germ you can become a trav-
eler Of the wide and lonely places.
If you have it not you may as we'll
resign yourself to guides.-Stewart Ed
ward White in Outing Magazine.

From the BOuntiful East.

A small proportion Of the flora Is in
digenous. The majority came from
the east, like all the great ideas on
which our culture is founded, and were
developed and improved on this classic
soil. Italy received the lemon and
the orange from the Semites, who in
their turn had obtained them from
India. The olive, the fig, the vine and
the palm were grown by the Semites
long before their cultivation penetrat-
ed to the west. The laurel and myr-
tie. indeed, are indigenous in Italy, but
their use for ceremonial purposes came
across the Mediterranean from the
east. The home Of the cypress is not
in Italy. but in the Greek archipelago,
