Up AGAINST IT.
Will Not Let Castro Land
Until He Apologies.

Paris, Dec. eff President Castro,
of Venezuela comes to Bordeaux he
will not be allowed to set foot on
French soil until after he has offered
an apology formally for the fashion in
which he has faunted France. This
decision was arrived at by the Cabinet
at is meeting yesterday, but it was
kept secret for two reasons, first
because it was suspected that Castro
would disembark at Santander, Spain,
and second, because his physical con-
dition may be such that humanitarian
motives might render immediate care
at hospital imperative. But should
he arrive at Bordeaux and his physi-
cal conditi on not be serious, the Cabi-
net has determined that some signal
redress must be enacted from the
Venezuelan President for his ignomi-
NOUS expulsion of M. Taigny, the
French charge d'affairs, from that
country in January, 1906.
Permission to land, therefore, will
be made conditional upon, first, the
dispatch of an official telegram Of
apology to the French government,
and after that the dispatch of tele-
graphic instructions to Caracas for the
Immediate execution of the arbitral
award in the matters of the French
claims, which France asserts Castro
has ignored.

Obituary

Ernest Simon August Heitkamp,
whose untimely death was caused by
the late wreck of the Great Northern
and North Eastern trains at Little
Woods was born November l, 1847, at
Wehdem, Westfahlen, Germany.
many.
At the age Of twenty years he came
to America. Travelled around Cape
Horn to Chile, South America. After
nine years he returned to Germany
to visit his parents and later returned
to this country, arriving in New Or
leans in 1878 during the the yellow
fever epidemic. In 1882 he was hap
PLY married in New Orleans to Miss
Eleizabeth Hagstette, who survives
him, and also one daughter and four
sons. He also had two brothers,
Prof. Ludwig Heitkamp, of Estrup
Hanover, and William Heitkamp, of
Wehdem Westfahlen, Germany, and a
cousin Geo. Jergens, of New Orleans.
In 1898, Mr.. Heitkamp bought prop
erty at Pearl River, La, and built up
a very prosperous business as a mer-
chant, and had been living here with
his family up to the time of his sad
demlSe. On arising LnaC morning
he told his wife he felt SO
strangely and bad. She asked him if
he was sick. He said mo" but had a
presentiment seemingly, that he had
better not go. His wife tried to per-
suade him to stay at home that day,
but his business seemed to haye pre-
vailing influence and he decided to go.
Bidding them all an affectionate ''good
bye" he left them to board the illfat-
ed train, and that was the last ''gooC
bye" to his loving wife and family.
Besides Mr.. Heitkamp's business al
Pearl River, La, he was vice-presi
dent of the firm Of A. Vittur and Co
Ltd, New Orleans, of which his eld
est son, Charles, is Secretary anc
Trearurer.
In this community many sympathizt
with the wife and family in their sud
den bereavement.
When all of life is DER
| And the work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder,
May they all be there.

nothing very modern about that. I'm

To Produce National Unity.
(Boston Herald

The purpose of the president ELECT to
shape the policies of his administra
ton. far as they relate to the political
situation in the south, to the end that
sectional divisions may be eliminated
is of more than partisan interest. The
passing Of the solid south will be a
step toward national unity and well
fare. the Importance of which will not
be measured by the gain of congress-
ional seats or of electoral voters by
any party
