The Stainless Commander.

Confederate Operations in Candada
and New York; by John w. Headley, q
gallant Confederate soldier from Kentucky,
is an interesting and well-written book,
and is worthy of a place in any Southern
library. The following tribute to Gen.
Robert E. Lee and the soldiers of the
Southern Confederacy, is taken from this
excellent volume:
''The record of Gen. Lee appears to be
the record of all the Confederate COM
manders. The survivors, and the descend
ants of all who suffered and died in vain
for the South, need never hang their heads,
or whisper to mankind, the true story of
Confederate record of humanity and honor
in the conduct Of the conflict for Southern
independence.
"The following lines were written by
Philip Stanhope Wormsley, of Oxford I'm
iversity, England, in the dedication of his
translation of Homer's Had to Gen. Robert
E. Lee, The most stainless of earthly
commanders, and, except in torture, the
greatest
The grand old bard that never dies,
Receive him in our English tongue;
send thee, but with weeping eyes,
The story that he sung.
Is marred beneath the spoilers heel
cannot trust my trembling hand
To write the things feel.
All, realm of tombs! but let her bear
This blazon to the end of time.
No nation rose so white and fair,
None fell so pure of crime.
The widows moan, the orphans wall
Come round thee-but in truth be strong
Eternal right, though all else fail,
Can never be made wrong.
An angels heart, an angels mouth,
Not Homer's, could alone for me
Hymn we'll the great Confederate South,
Virginia first and Lee.

Queries About Our School Laws.

Editor Bossier Banner
Being very much interested in the public
school system of Louisiana, and having
had some points brought before me within
the last few weeks that l, in my "humble
way" could not comprehend, and not
being able to get in touch with the Parish
Superintendent or the Parish Board, am,
with your permission, using your paper to
PROFOUND to them the following questions:
Is it school law 'to dock teacher for
giving legal holiday?" It has been
done. Now, if it is law, poor "kids!"
No more Christmas, 22d of February or
Good Friday for them, for am sure there
is no teacher willing to both ''dance and
pay the fiddler That question ought to
be settled before the last of next month, as
another legal holiday comes up.
I'd. Why is it when one teacher, on
account of sickness, loses time, her pupils
also losing time, receives her full pay,
while yet another teacher, from the same
cause, is absent, her pupils being taught
each day, is locked for lost time? Can
you give me the reason for same? Of
course we could not accuse our worthy
Superintendent or estimable board Of
favoriteism, but the fact remains the same.

A NEW USE FOR
 BUTTERMILK
Brother of Mrs. Chas. Harrison, of This City, Has Utilized it in the Manufacture of Billiard Balls
 and Other Things,

The following special from Law renee, Kansas, will be read with un- usual interest here, in view of the fact that Mir Teague is brotaer of Mrs. Charles Harrison, of this city:
 E. L. Teague, a graduate of the University of Kansas, who for a year and half has been engaged in experiments with view to the utili- zation of buttermilk in the manufac- ture of casein, announced last night that his efforts had been crowned with success.
 Casein is used as substitute for cellu1oid and meerschaum and in the manufacture of billiard balls. It is also a substitute for amber and tor toise and is used in the glazing of paper
 Mir. Teague states that four pounds of easein can be made from one gal lon of buttermilk. He asserts that when a farmer or a creamery has made all the butter possible from a quantity of milk, the buttermilk left will be worth as much for casein as the milk was worth for butter.

CANNOT ACCEPT
 PAY FOR SERVICE
Attorney General Holds That a Per- son Who Takes Compensation for Working at the Polls or Else.
 where Violates Election Law.

Little Rock, Ark, March 9.-Attor- ney General Norwood has rendered an interesting opinion relative to the new primary election law, bearing particularly upon the right of candi- dates to pay workers at the polls on election day, hire hacks for carrying voters, etc. Also as to the right of a Republican or Socialist to vote in the primary election.
 MT. Norwood holds that any per- son who would accept compensation for working at the polls would be violating the law AS to the right of Socialist or Republican to vote in a Democratic primary, he holds that such person would not violate the primary election law itself, but that he would be violating the rules prescribed for that party in the con- duct of it's primary election.
 The opinion is in reply to a com- from Prosecuting Attor- ney Mcdonald of Fort Smith, and in view of the near approach of the De- primary, is of unusual per- thence.

RABBI FRISCH SPEAKS
 AT FORT SMITH
Pine Bluff Minister Delivers Address Before the B'nai Brith of the Border
 City.

Appropriate services were held at the Jewish Temple on North Elev- enth street Sunday evening by the local lodge of the Independent Order Bnai Brith. The lodge had as it's guests, Charles Johnson, of
 Li.tle Rock and Rabbi Frisch of load in the praises of the cordality of the citizens of this city in extend ing them the best we had" and spoke very entl usias tically of the growth and impro, ement of the Bor- der City.
 The mission of the above gentle men in Fort Smith was to create interest in the local lodge of the l. o. B. B. In the afternoon several candidates were initiated into the order and fine addresses were given to members.
 The I. o. B. B. lodge has one fea- ture that gives no benefits of any
 nature to it's members. It's dues are collected quarterly from each member and the entire receipts are spent for charity.
 In the evening at eight o'clock an interesting talk was given by Mir. Jacobson on the work and history of the order. Following him the audi ence listened to very interesting sermon by Rabbi F'risch of Pine Bluff. The Rabbi spoke of the con- ing American who is now being formed and nodded from every nat ionality on the face of the globe. All eyes of civilization are being turned to America, the land of the free. He
 dwelt extensively on the Melting Pot' the great play by Israel Fang well, which is now playing in New York. He said this play shows very plainly how the nations of the earth are being represented in the making of the coming American
 The Rabbi spoke in high terms of the grand and noble work being done by the B'nai Brith order of which there are 35,OO0 members. He was given the attention of every per- son during his discourse. It is hop ed that he may return again to the city and give the members of the United Hebrew congregation anoth- CT treat.-Fort Smith Southwest American.
