New library Beard Organize.

The newly elected board of di. rectors of the Huttg Public Libra " met Tuesday evening in the library with all members present and perfected an organization by electing the following officers: President c. A. Berry.
 Vice Pfes.-Dr. Fl. c. F ushing.
 Secretary Miss Ethel Y'Blood.
 Treasurer Pat Fits.
 It was the unanin ous opinion of the board that the library should be kept open instead of being closed for time as suggested by the retiring board, but under oer- tain conditions only. There has been considerable complaint of late about the noise and commotion which is raised in the library of an evening, which interiors with those who go there for the purpose for which this institution was estab- lished to read. Also that no at tention is being paid the ruling of a recent board. that children under ten years of age be not permitted in the library unless accompanied by their parents.
 The new board gave the librarian positive instructions to enforce or der and the rule regarding children and to report to them any who fails to comply with her request. that the priviedge of using the reading room might be taken from that particular person and if this does not work, the closing of the library will become necessary, but the board does think this will have to be done.
 A committee consisting of Mrs. c. P. Philyaw, Miss Ethel Y'Blood and Pat Pitts, was appointed to circulate subscription lists and se- cure signers who will pledge a cer- tain amount each mounth for the maintenance of the library. The board adjourned to meet Novem- Der 6 after granting the Portfolio club permission to use the room on Friday afternoons for meeting pur- poses.

J. W. Harman for Sheriff.

Our announcement column this week carries that of John w. Har- man as a candidate for reelection to the office of sheriff and tax col lector of Union county, subject to the action of the Democratic vot- CTS at the primary next spring.
 Mir. Harman has made a pain taking. honest and accommodating official during his term in this im- portant office and has performed the duties required of him in con scientious and capable manner which is all that could be asked of any public servant.
 He is familiar with the af fairs of the office now and even in better shape to administer it's af- fairs than ever as his past experi- ence has made him more com potent.
 He promises the same faithful service in the future as he has rendered in the past should he again be the choice of the electors and having been tried and found not wanting. no mistake can be made in giving him another term.

GOOD ROAD BUILDING PLAN.
Every Man Look After That In Front of lis Own Door and we will Have Good Roods.

Crops will soon be gathered. All cotton will be opened and out by Nov. |. Not over 100000 bales for Arkansas, which we are going to hold for that better price which buyers will pay when convinced that our crop is no larger than we fully we'll know it to be. We will want to market this gradually in the late winter when the rains and freezes will have filled the roads with mire and slush. It is possible that we will lose in the difference in the hauling cost more than we have made in the rise in the price of our cotton. It will take twice the time, men and mules to deliver over a mud road that it does over dry one. Lets fix the road dur ing the time between picking and marketing the crop.
 Get the county judge to cut the side ditches sloping toward the center of the road and take the stumps out and build the culverts and let us do the rest. Lets build some good dirt roads now and do it ourselves. Gall a meeting of all farmers living on and near your road from town to town. Out of private donations of work by the farmers. cash by the townsmen and the cooperation of the over seer and his public fund, shape up the road. Let each man living on the road agree to build split-log drag (cost $2.5o) and smooth the ruts out of one half to one mile of the road per year, which will cost $1.OO to $2.OO in labor.
 When the Isrealites returned from their captivity in Babylon to their beloved city, Jerusalem, they found the city walls insufficient and worthless for the object for which they were constructed (like our roads). The walls were re- built under the God given plan of every man building the portion in front of his own door, Speedily and quickly the work was done. Lets build and keep in condition our roads in the same way. The material is at hand. In the bottom country fix the muck road by GOV ering the surface with sand and blowing and narrowing it in. Fix the sand road b. blowing and har rowing in the muck. Where neith- CT is found, shape Up the road and put on the drag. The shaping will not allow water to stand. The dragging will work up the clay as we once did to make stick chim- neys, which will make it almost impervious to water and will also keep the ruts from making gulleys.
 Lets get the old quilting. log rolling, corn husking, neighbor- helping-neighbor spirit into the road building.

WHY
 TURNIPS?

The amount of >moRey absolutely thrown away annually on mere space filling" in the newspapers Of this country is an amazing total. To
 advertise q piece of real estate Wmcl ii not a bargain, but is for sale at
 what is really a prohibitive figure and then to occupy thsit same space
 week in and week out (and somf- times month in and month ouD With
 the same threadbare, conventional announcement unchanged, is precisely like buying a corner lot in the busi- ness portion of Phoenix and keeping it constantly sowed to "turnIPs.' This office makes il it's business to ad- vertise nothing but properties which are really bargains, and you can aI- ways depend on that.

kircben. who was killed in 17o3.

kirchen, who was killed Tn Iio3.
 In the chapel of the Virgin is the tomb of Archbishop Reinold von Das- seI, who brought the bones of the three magi to Cologne. He died in 1167. On his tomb is the statue of Archbishop von Gereney, who died in 1862. l do not know if there are two men occupy. ing one tomb like St. Lawrence and his partner at Rome or if they did like the McNab-emptied the tombs and put other men into them.
 St. Engleberts ehapel.-The original promoter of the cathedral was first buried here, but bis remains are now in the treasury.
 Chapel of St. Maternus.-This was the first bishop of Cologne. He lived about A. D. 300. In this chapel is the tomb of the warrior archbishop, Philip yon Steinsberg. I do not know why he is called the warrior archbishop, nor do I know why the newspapers sl- wsys allude to Admiral Evans as "Fighttng Bob Eyans." For hundreds of years the arcbbishops of Treves, Cologne and other places had temporal as we'll as spiritual power and in those days when might was right" an arch bishop was compelled to fight to defend his property or territory and protect the lives of his subjects, and an arch bishop who was not warrior had very uncomfortable time of it. This arch bishops tomb is surrounded by little city wall with gates, towers and everything perfect. This is in allusion to the fact of his having strengthened the Notifications of Cologne in ll9l. On the wall is the original ground plan of the cathedral
 Chapel of St. John contains the tomb of archbishop Conrad von Hochstaden, who began the building of the present cathedral. Bngelbert meant we'll, but was killed before he had done anything and twenty years later Conrad did something-in fact, he did great deal. His plan was followed until the cathe- dFal was actually completed in 1S8o The plan of the whole cathedral as originally drawn isin his chapel. It IS torn in two and was lost for years after the French occupied Cologne. At last one piece was found in farm house. and the other in Paris, where it had been taken by French soldier. The authorities had to pay Sl0o for it and considered they got it cheaply.
 Next is the chapel of the three magi, or wise men of the East who visited Bethlehem soon after the birth of Christ. For hundreds of years it was customary in taking oaths to swear by the three wise men, or the three kings, of Cologne. Their bones were in convent in Milan for hundreds of years until 1164, when Frederick Barbarossa besieged Milan. As the people put up good fight he vowed to hang the mayor as soon as he took the city. The may or's sister, who was Superior of the convent, went to Archbishop Reinold von Dassel Ewhose tomb we visited short time ago., and promised him the relics of the magi if her brothers life were spared. When the town was taken the archbishop obtained permission from the emperor that the Lady Su- perior should be allowed to leave the town with whatever she could carry away. She was a good strong woman and hoisted her brother on her shoul- ders and marched out with the band playing and colors flying. The bones are now in the treasury.

BLUM THINKS EXPOSE.
ton Will COME TO

Tells of the Splendid Work
Done by Governor Sanders
for the Southern City.

II feel certain we are going to
win out" enthusiastically de-
clared Mr. Sam Blum, chairman
of the publicity committee of the
Worlds Panama Exposition Com
pany, Wednesday morning on his
arrival over the Louisville and
Nashville from Washington,
where he spent many days in the
interest of the exposition fight
that is being made for the Cres-
cent City. He was talking to a
Daily States reporter.
However," he said, 1T re-
quires constant watching between
this and the day the question
will be finally settled by the
United States Congress. New
Orleans has made a magnificent
fight for the honor of celebrating
the opening of the Panama Canal
in 1915 by the holding of a Worlds
Panama Exposition, and | have
every reason to believe that the
efforts of those conducting the
campaign will be crowned with
success.
In speaking of the very able
manner in which Governor San
ders presented the cause for New
Orleans before the House COM
mittee on industrial arts and ex-
positions, Mr.. Blum said: Il
wish to emphasize one thing in
particular, and it is the master
full manner in which Governor
Sanders presented our cause,
which should, at the hands of our
people, receive that appreciation
which his efforts so justly de-
serve. The very fact that his
forceful presentation will form
part of the Congressional records
will make history for u.s."

AUNT" MARY WOODS
Is KILLED BY
FRISCO
Buggy, In Which She and Her
Son We're, DemOlished---SOn
Jumps from Vehicle

Aunt Mary Woods was an
old WasherWoman known by per-
hRps every inhabitant of Opelou-
sas. She was a peaceable, we'll
behaved old negro woman, who
had worked hard for a living for
herself and children.
Her tragic death last Wednes-
day night is therefore regretted
by the entire community.
Aunt Mary was returning from
the street fair, and going to her
daughters in LaWler & Cald-
wells addition. There is a fence
enclosing the school house
grounds, which has been a men
ace to life every since the Frisco
railroad track was built, because
it obscures the sight of coming
trains. The city authorities
have called attention to this fact
several times, but the fence is
still there, and doubtless respon-
sible for the death Of the old
lady.
When she met her death she
was driving with her son, and
when the railroad crossing on
Market street was reached, it
seems a freight train was back
ing without the required flag
man at the back and struck the
vehicle just as it was about to
clear the track. The little horse
was completely divorced from
the old buggy, the son jumping
out in time to save his life, and
the old woman remaining on the
track with the buggy. Both legs
and her neck were broken, and
she was otherwise horribly man
gled. Death was instantaneous.
1t is reliably stated that a suit
for damages will be instituted
against the railroad company.
She was the mother of Armas
Woods, recently hanged in Crow
ley for the murder of a Syrian.

Gone to Her Rest.

Died, on January 9, 1911, Mrs.
Francois Castillo, aged eighty
years, six months and nine days,
after having suffered for a num-
Der of years.
Loving every one and beloved
by all, she was a good and noble
soul, a faithful wife and devoted
mother, a mi~nistering angel to
the sick and a charitable heart
to the poor.
With generous heart she freely
gave
To the poor a helping hand;
Around her grave let US
fondly cling,
While we hope to meet again.
