In New Zealand an automatic
device has just been patented for
telling railway passengers the
name of the next station. The
names of the various stations are
printed on q roll, which is rotated
BY toothed wheels. A "tripper"
is placed either on the track or by
it's side between each station, and
this is so adjusted as to strike a
lever on the passing car. The
motion is communicated to tbs
toothed wheels governing the roll
bearing the station names, and
the ringing of an automatic bell
announces to the passengers the
fact that the name of the next sta
ton is on view.

Colonel and Mrs. Thomas j.
Shaffer entertained, at dinner, at
their beautiful country home,
the Anna Plantation, on ST. 1day,
the 18th inst, in honor of their
visiting guests General and Mrs.
Castleman. The invited guests
were Judge and Mrs. A. C. Allen,
Colonel John A. O'Niell. Major
E. j. Trastour, Captain R. w.
Allen, Homer S. Hine, Senator
John D. Shaffer, Major Prescott
Foster and Judge H. D. Smith.
The dinner was one OF those
dear, old dignified Southern en-
tertainments, blending with good
cheer and perfect appointments,
"rhe fest of reason and the flow
of SOUL" The hours preceding
the repast were spent in the spa
cious parlors of the lovely home
with the ladies', but after leaving
the festive board the veterans and
sons-of-veterans present retired
to the spacious piazzas and pic
tured many stirring incident of
that strenuous time when "man-
hood was in flower" when war
had come home to the hearts and
firesides of a people who "ac-
knowledged no superior" And
the scene itself was enough to
stir the blood and awaken the
memory of that handful of griz-
zled patriots, for in open and inn
mediate view before them was
that memorable field, wherein
heroes of both armies had met
and fought and died.
There fell the gallant Colonel
Riley, there the intrepid Colonel
Vincent of the Second Louisiana
Cavalry still cheered on his men
though desperately wounded.
There the st. Mary Cannoneers
covered themselves with glory,
together With the Crescent Regi-
ment always at the post of duty)
and the Texas troops, and from
the Teche came the booming of
the guns OF captain SemmeS, son
of the great Admiral, and a boy
who did honor to such sire.
This handful of men, sent for a
vital purpose and ordered to do
or die meeting with a heroism
"an' army with BAN
ners," panoplied in all the pomp
and circumstance of war, and pre-
senting in all its splendor and
glory "battle's magnificent
array"
AS the evening shadows came
down on the scene now SO peace
full and beautiful the guests babe
a reluctant farewell to their hos
pitable host and charming hos
Jess, and rode home with hearts
illed with tender memories. for
he dear ones who fought on that
memorable field, and whose
souls have passed over the great
iivide and now rest in the eternal |
ground.

Judge Charles Fred. Tucker.

There died on March 10th, 1909
in the city Of Dallas, Texas, Judge
Chas. Fred Tucker, a former cit
izen OF Franklin. In the year
1873 he left this place where his
boyhood and young manhood
were spent, and settled in the city
of Dallas, Texas. There his worth
and ability were soon recognized,
and he rapidly grew in promi-
nence among the people of the
city and State of his adoption,
and he retained-and never lost
for q moment-their confidence.
He belonged to the old school,
now fast passing away; a cul-
tured gentleman, courtly, pure
and upright. AS was said by one
of his admirers after his death,
she had lived for more than sixty
years true to his ideals, and loyal
to conviction, family and friends,
and if he ever did an intentional
wrong, it is not recorded in the
book of Time"
Judge Tucker had many friends
and admirers here, and for their
benefit we publish the resolutions
passed in his memory by the Dali
las Bar Association, copied from
a Dallas paper:

1909, Judge Charles Fred Tucker was

Tucker was born of Virginian stock,
nobly famed in the country's history;
he was reared in Louisiana and was
educated in Texas and at the Uni
yersity of Virginia. Gentleness ran
in bis blood and all things high came
easy to him. In the estimate of his
friends, he had every quality that be-
comes a gentleman, and, in the judgr

The Growth Of the Capital City Of
II. Mary.

To the stranger who has not
visited the town of Franklin in
recent years nothing strikes him
more impressively than the de-
velopments which have taken
place. The primary improvement
is the new court house, perhaps
one of the finest in the State.
Main street, the principal street
of the town is now almost paved
and curbed and the City Council
at a special meeting Thursday
evening gave out a contract to
have two more of the principal
streets of the town,-Willow and
Adams-paved and curbed, and
this work is to becontinued on by
the present council. A large
number of new buildings are con-
stantly in course of erection, the
greatest number being quite
modern cottages, ornamental and
credit to the town.
The waterworks and electric
light plants are also among the
conspicuous improvements of re.
cent years, making the town one
of the most attractive, conven-
lent and fashionable to live in.
All this is due to the progressive
spirit which now and has for a
long time pervaded the minds OF
our people and to successive wise
and faithful municipal and pa
rochial administrations.
While Franklin's progress has
been slow, it has been steady and
permanent, until to-day she
stands we'll at the head of or
second to no other town in this
region of the State. To the pros
pector, no town in the State offers
better educational, social or re-
ligious facilities. Our public
school system is on high plane
and in the hands of able teachers
and the schools are in operation
most of the year. There are
churches representing all the lead
ing denominations, and the social
status of the people of the town
will compare favorably with the
best of similar conditions exiting
anywhere else.
The town is traversed by the
Southern Pacific railroad on one
side and the Bayou Teche, a
natural and navigable waterway
on the other. In the rear for
miles and miles, the most fertile
farm lands are to be seen, rem
dering almost any kind of cultiva-
ton a source of sure profit.
The sturdy immigrant, casting
about him for a home, could not
find a more desirable place to To-
cate than the town of Franklin.
With that greater development
which must characterize our rich
agricultural resources; with the
people of the town and parish
continuing to bend every energy
to improve and embellish their
homes and their surroundings,
the town of Franklin is ere long
destined to become a city of great
commercial importance as well as
a place of unrivalled residential
ADVANTAGES.
