Dressing Dolls For
Poor Last Work

An incident showing the sweet char
acter OF a dying girl is told by friends
of Lydia Crawford. the ~17-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Crawford. sos West Nevada street. who
died Wednesday afternoon following
two years of patient suffering due to
cancer of the spine.
The last work done by the pair OF
feeble little hands. wasted to the bone,
was to dress four dollies for as many
poor little girls, whom Lydia feared
would no get dolls for Christmas.
Lydia made the doll clothes without
assistance. dressing each of the dollies
nicely. and with good taste.
The four little dolls will be given
four little girls on Christmas morning.
They will probably attribute the gifts
to a good Santa Claus. But from
heaven above a little girl will gaze on
the sight of our little mes made hap
Ply by her last work. and there will be
JOY untold among the angels.

DAUTERIVE SWITCH

The certainty Of the building ol
main line of the Newt Iberia &
Northern Railroad to the Caroline
plantation, on the shores of Lake
Dauterive, was finally established
the middle of this week. Mr.. LaZ-
ard King, of this city, is materially
Interested in the carrying out of
this project, as he recently became
the owner of the Caroline planta-
ton.
Mr.. Jno. ID. Valet has been an
interchangeable worker for this re-
suit. He deserves great credit for
the weight of his efforts towards
the accomplishment OF this UNDER
taking.
Mr.. Hazard Vaughn, who has a
saWmill at Dauterive Landing, will
be one of the beneficiaries of this
new rail connection, as it will give
him a rail outlet for the product
of his mill, and means greater
development of his enterprise and
venture!
This matter has been pending for
months in the hands of the railroad
people before they would give the
week, that the line would be built.
A large part of the new section
which will be tapped by the spur
will go at once into the planting
of cane, with the promise of heavy
shipments of cane in the fall of
1911.
