Resolutions passed by the R, 3. Lee

Sandoz, deceased Adjutant. !.
Whereas. it has pleased Almighty
God to remove from the Sphere If

and Jealous Adiutant Of R. &. Lee
Camp Ii. U..C. ", Leonce Sandoz,
Whereas, in Comrade Leonce San
doz's untimeiy demise, the community
loses one Of its best citizens and
every Veteran Confederate Soldier
loses q true friend.
At the early age Of II, when the
tocsin of wal was sounded, he was
among the first to rally to his coun-
try's standard, and followed the for
tunes Of the Confederacy, until the
end of the war. He was true to
every relation Of life. He was a man
of unbending integrity, yet gentle as
a woman; of dauntless courage, yet
modest and retiring; he was genial.
kind, charitable, generous, the very
soul of honor, and above all adevoted
husband. and a fond father. He
cherished fondly the memory Of those
glorious days, and enjoyed the com.
partnership Of old Comrades, not one
Of w~homsever appealed to him ii
vain for needed help. With intense
conviction, he believed our Cause was
Just, and he never made apology fol
his course. AS a citizen he was q
staunch advocate of Law and Order.
and with liberal public spirit, he
strove to build up the moral and ma.
terial interest of his section.
Therefore be it resolved, that the
r. E. Lee Camp IA, u. CIV. deplore
his loss, and extend to his grief
stricken family our heartfels sympa-
shy, in this their hour of trial and
affection, and pray that the God oil
Hosts will extend His protecting arm
around the bereayed widow and or.
phans, and will ever guide and pro.
tect them from adversely and sorrow

Lye poisoning, which appears to be
almost as much of 4 children's COM
plant as measles or whooping cough,
often has serious results. One little
tot, Newton Roberts, who says his
home is in Hammond, La, had q. mar
row escape from death by eating a
istfuIl Of the stuff used by his mother
for cleaning fools. He has been at
the hospital for some months and
strange to say bis particular play
mate, a child Of three years, known
as 0dette, is suffering from the same
complaint. Odette has not been out
Of the HOSPITAL since she learned tt
walk. She is one of the old-tiners'
there, and when a search was made
for her card of entrance by a report
er wishing to learn her last name and
her address, it was found that it had
been shelved. Usually these cards
are TO be found on the cot of the
patient, but not so with 0dette. She
had been there SO long that the card
had been put away for safe-keeping
One Of the physicians in charge
said that though the children suffer.

threats were still in a critical condi
ton. The I've contracts the thorax
and for a long time after the chill

ton is often necessary to straightel
out the throat.

mothers in seeing that I've is no.

Miss Beulah Poynter, who comes to

four days in her own dramatization
of Lena Rivers" is an actress of
exceptional power. Her interpreta-
ton of Mary j.. Holmes romantic
novel reveals a clear conception OF
the character and gives her excellent
opportunity for demonstrating her
ability. Her transition from child
in the prologue to young woman in
the first act, after five years have
elapsed, is so natural that she actual
ly seems to have grown up" during
the brief interval the curtain is down.
Her performance and Interpretation
of the part is distinct in its clear con-
ception of the character. She is per-
sonally most attractive and beauti-
full young woman and her charming
manner is one of her characteristics.
