"But you see he's worked SO hard

Meg frowned as she always did
when reminded Of her approaching
marriage. An English duke with vast
estates and an infinitesimal income
had asked her hand In marriage, and
her father had given assent In her
name.
Francis Cadmus had been ambitious
for his daughter. He had always
frowned upon Jimmy Dorvaps suit,
even while admitting that he was a
fine young fellow and bound to make
his way In the world.

who had boasted OF his titled son in
law ever since. So when young Dorval
began to show signs OF INSTRUMENTATION
Cadmus had hired private detectives.
The events In philadelphia had proved
the value of this move, for Dorval and
Margaret had planned an eIopemeIIi.
Megs mother came from one OF the
old Philadelphia families. and her
aunts had insisted upon s.sit that
they might shine In reflected glory of
her engagement to the duke. Cadmus
had sent her over In private car
and had arranged that Hhe should
come back the same way. The gate
man had not caught her reference to
the private car when she came back
from the telegraph Office. and by mis-
take had directed her to the regular
train just pulling out.

Hurry upl They're Just closing The
gates."
With little shrek Of excitement
Margaret dashed down the concourst
and slipped through the gate just In
time She paused uncertainty, looking
for the private car. A brakeman dart
ed forward, half pushed her upon the
rear platform and the train began &c
move. There was a clamor at the
gate, evidently from the people who
had missed the train, and Margaret
smiled contentedly as she realized by
how narrow margin she had caught
the train herself.

RAILWAY FLOTSAM
A LITTLE lICAN
Some Sparks that Show the
Progress of Steel Highways
in Pelican State.

Laying rails has begun on an
important extension of the M. L.
& t. railroad of the Southern
Pacific system from Lafayette to
Baton Rouge. This will form q
short line across the state for
through freight from New York
and the East which moves by way
of New Orleans. This line will
he 50 miles long, hut will save
$50 miles on West bound ship
ments.
One of the latest railroad items
of general interest Is that the
Texas & Pacific railway will main
tain depots in Baton Rouge in
connection with the Colorado
Southern and Southern Pacific
railways, which will enter that
city by transfer from the west
side of the river.
The fremont & Gulf is pre-
pairing to place a long switch at
Award, South of the main line
from the depot, for the accom-
mediation of the increasing traffic
at that point.
The l.. r. & N. has added
another Pullman car to It's train
between Baton Rouge and New
Orleans and Shreveport. 1t is
stated that the service on this
road is constantly being bettered,
as the roadbed is being bsllasted,
which will give it great stability
and make it one of the finest in
the state. The branch line of the
l.. r. & N. extends from Winn-
field to Aloha, on the main line,
q distance of 81 miles. The road
is a good one and the trains make
close connection with the east
and west bound trains between
Shreveport and New Orleans. |
This branch extends through al
timber country and Is dotted with
immense saw mill plants at
several points on the line. Mr.. |
A. c. Mason is the pleasant and
accommodating agent at Winn-
field and Mr.. L. E. DeLoach the i
passenger conductor on the
branch.
1t is learned from the Baton
Rouge Truth that the Mississippi

Your scribe is 81 years of age
and l assure you that he is deeply
interested in your present welfare,
as well as your eternal destiny.
Hoping that you will do good and
render an immense valuable
service to the world in your day

sweet messenger of death shall

you from the foundation of the

SOME TIMELY WORDS
To THE YOUNG MEN
How They Should Improve the
Shining Hours to Become
Useful Citizens.
To The Sentinel:

There never was a time in the
history of the world that such q
demand for young men to fill all
of the various vocations of the
commercial world rs at present.
Therefore, young men, endeavor
to qualify yourselves to do good
in your day and generation, in
order that the world may be BET
tered by your living in it. Pos
sess habits that are worthy of
the highest commentator. Be
punctual and prompt, coupled
with strict, punctlllious honesty.
Being in possession of these
noble characteristics you are
qualified to demand the highest
position of the commercial world.
Your precious mothers and noble
fathers who have labored and
toiled for your special benefit
will be the happy recipients in
your advancement IN the great
progress and development of the
resources of the world. 1t is
very important and highly COM
mendable that you are in pos
session of high affable DISPOSE
ton, which will of itself introduce
you in the highest circles of so
ciety, of easy and quick COM
munication, of sobriety, coupled
with all of the graces of a high
accomplished education. You
will always have lucrative, high |
toned paying position. No young
man possessing these noble
qualifications will be without a
profitable position. Young men,
it is highly important that you
should understand the science of !
government. The oil leaders of
our great republic are departing
from the walks of life to join that
innumerable host who have come
up out of great trials, tribulations
and bereavements,. and have
washed their robes and made
them white In the blood of the
Lamb, singing those beautiful,
harT onious angelic songs that no
man could sing on earth. Yes,
young men, some of you may be
honored to the highest positions
within the powers of the noble,
philanthropic gifts of the great
American people. These are gold
IN moments of the fragments of
;lme to improve and utilize all of
your precious time and to be
,reat noble auxiliaries in moving
he progressive commercial world
rom the start to a punctilious
inish. In conclusion will say
hat we hope and pray that the
'oung men of America will prove
Ind demonstrate their ability to
ill all of the high positions as
veil as the lowest; equal to the
,rainiest and highest educated
philosopher that the world has
yer produced. Young men, be

i've. Young men, your success

the low water piling of the
Colorado Southern on the inclfres
on the west side and the Illinois
Central on the east side of the
river is being pushed. As these
inclInes will be in demand for the
transportation of trains by the
first of the coming year, the
work IS being done with the
greatest possible dispatch and is
nearing completion.

Eunice is In close touch with
Winfield by reason of its con-
nection through the Rock Island
system. 1t is the focus for four
railroads,-the Colorado South
ern, the Rock Island, the Southern
Pacific and the east and west road
from Bunkie, a branch of the
Texas 6 Pacific. The Eunice,
Abbeville & Lafayette is another
railroad enterprise that is now
projected to that point.

"No, I don't know" said the
