THE ANGLO-AMERICAN JAW,

The Anglo American jaw, according to
scientists given to the measurement of
jaws, ancient and modern, has declined
greatly in size. 1t is ascertained that there
has been falling off in maxillary dimen-
sions-whieh is attributed to disuse-from
eleven to nine inches, decline of over Is
per cent. While we must concede, in the
face of the scientific measurements, that
our jaws have grown smaller and lighter,
We are not prepared to admit that this
phenomenon is due to disuse. The theory
of disuse takes no account of number of
modern developments. It utterly ignores
the politician, the woman's rights conven-
ton, the Congressional patriot and the
crossroads demagogue. After dinner
speeches would be incomprehensible if jaw
were not pre-eminently the characteristic
of our age and race. A satirist has said,
with some approach to truth
"The age is one of chatter, for the most part in
sincere.
Mere phrases form the basis of prosperous career
Society lies prone beneath the rhetorician's ban,
And glibness tits that-even more than money
makes the man,"
To Eastern races our conversational elo-
quence is most astonishing and painful. A
Chinaman employed as cook by lady
residing in Oregon left his place after
a couple of days spent in her kitchen. She
had been most kind to him, spending a
while with him after each meal, telling him
what to do next, and she wondered why he
went. The next Chinaman that came staid
only an hour and went. So the third and
fourth and fifth. Meanwhile she had OBJ
served writing on the kitchen wall in
Chinese characters. OF the sixth she asked
its meaning. Mclean woman he said,

heal.'

General Leon Jastremski died at his
home in Baton Rouge last Friday morning
at 2:05 O'Clock, in the xty-eighth year Of
his age. BY his death the State loses one
of her best and truest citizens. He was
above all things an honest and courage
Gus man. 1t was his chief desire to be
right, and when his mind was once made
up no unworthy influences or sordid con-
siderations could swerve him from his
course. He possessed the courage Of his
convictions in the highest sense of the
word. His position on all public questions
was easily determined. He despised sub
terfuge. His aggressiveness was, how
ever, timed with a spirit of fairness and
justice. The virtues of good mans life
were reflected in his every thought and
deed. There was no man living with a
higher sense of honor. and bigger, nobler
heart never throbbed responsive to the
grasp of a friendly hand. The truest and
noblest of gentlemen in the best and high
est sense of the word, patriotic, loyal and
loving in the traits that mark the real
royalty of manhood, the State has lost in
him type of citizenship more important
to real civic greatness and moral perma-
hence than any other they can possess.

THE STATE PRESS.

Crowley Signal: Three thousand oranges
on single tree in Acadia Parish, and the
fruit worth $3.50 a hundred on the local
market. That ought to make the Acadia
landowner sit up and take notice.
Mansfield Journal: Too much legisla-
ton is Kissing and reproach to any
enlightened community. 1t is nothing
better than means of fastening the man
in politics more tightly upon the backs Of
the people.
Sabins Banner: The profits of Coats
thread factory for the past year was $751;
100000. This money all remains in for
eign country. Why could not thread
factory be established in the South and
keep some of these immense profits at
home?
Shreveport Caucasian: What is high
license, anyhow, but an acknowledgment
that the saloon traffic is essentially an evil,
and, at the same time, what is it but a
compromise with that evil for the sake of
obtaining tainted revenue which we would
otherwise have to pay as taxes.
Leesville Leader: The boot-legger's
occupation is about gone in this parish.
The courts and the people have decreed
that their mode of existence must be
changed, and, if necessary, such offend
ers will be kept behind the bars until they
themselves come to this conclusion.
Shreveport Caucasian: 1t is not posi-
BILE to over estimate the evil influence
which the saloons and the doggeries and
the DIVES have exerted not only morally
but politically. Should the conservative,
the self-respecting, law-abiding element
be aroused to action the saloon in New
Orleans cannot escape. And on this score
who can tell how soon the local option
movement may be inaugurated in Shreve-
port?
Franklin Waterman: From the outlook
it is safe to say that prohibition is going to
be prime item in future public affairs.
Most of the States are going dry, and
others are following close upon their heels
to get in on the popular wave. No corpo-
ration will employ a man if he plays with
tanglefoot; no railroad company will ac-
cept one for service if he associates with
liquid enthusiasm, and few business houses
will put one on salary who chooses as a
companion a blear-eyed jag. This is
another hardship imposed by the trusts
upon those who occupy an occasional nip Of
hilarious material, and the old rounder oil
the future will have to humbug his stomach
with water, coffee or coca-cola.

DR.. JOHN j. SCOTT.
uSe.

DR.. John j. Scott died in Shreveport at
1890 Monday night, aged 10 years.
DR.. Scott was born in Edgefield District,
S. c., in 1887. When young man he
located at Red Land, in this parish, about
1858, having journeyed on horseback from
Edgefield to Red Land. At Red Land he
practiced medicine until April, 1, 1862,
when he enlisted in the Bossier Cavalry,
serving in that and other commands until
the close of the War Between the States in
1866. Returning home, DR.. Scott resumed
the practice of his profession at Red Land,
removing from that place to Benton, and
from this place to Minden, finally locating
in Shreveport about 1875.
CDR. Scott is dead!" Many were the
hearts grieved by this sad intelligence,
for the people of Bossier who knew him
we'll as skilful physician, upright man
and gallant Confederate soldier, felt they
had lost loyal friend and the country a
noble citizen. And many there are who,
in their silent grief, are bearing testimony
to his unfailing goodness; for in every re-
lation of life there was an echo from his
responsive nature that always measured
up to the full requirements Of his sur
roundings. A well-rounded life is ended,
with "no fears to beat away, no strife to
hoo} -

The crop on this tree was sold recently as

The first railroad in Missouri was track
five miles in length, laid from Richmond
to point on the Missouri River opposite
Lexington, some time between 1849 and
1861. It was made of timber, the rails
being sawed oak and the ties of hewed
oak, and was operated by horse power.
