About Cards of Thanks.

An exchange says the day is not far
distant when "cards of thanks" will be
thing of the past. When death en-
tiers home neighbors never fail to do
all in their power to place silver lin
ing to the dark cloud, and they do not
expect or desire any thanks through the
public press. One subscriber, however,
not to be outdone sent in the following:
''Mr. Editor: l desire to thank the
friends and neighbors most heartily in
this manner for their cooperation dur
ing the illness and death of my late
husband who escaped from me by the
hand of death on last Friday while eat

Miss Viola Goodwin, who is one of
the teachers in the Parkview school at
Shreveport, arrived home last Monday
night for ten days holiday, her school
being one of the four schools of that
city closed for ten days on account OF
the scare about meningitis. 1t seems
to US that the action of the school board
in temporarily suspending four out of
the six schools of that city is calculated
to do decidedly more harm than good.
How the city is to be benefited by the
roaming at large for ten days of nearly
two thousand children we cannot com
prehend. 1t is all very well to isolate
infected children, but there was nc
more reason for temporarily suspend
ing the four schools then there was fol
suspending all six of the schools of the
city indefinitely. 1t is rather an awk
ward plan to pursue to allay either feal
or danger for the city or the surround
ing country.

On Friday, April s, twenty-four en-
ployees of the Big Pine Lumber Co.,
were arrested by Deputy j. F. Hutch
inson, of Verda, and brought to Colfax,
where they gave bond before Magistrate
]. @. Long to appear at court and an
swer the charge of trespass.
This is the sequel to a sensation that
developed last Tuesday, when Jack
Spikes took his shot gun and defied the
Big Pine crew to cut any timber from
land which he claimed. Jack was ar
rested for disturbing the peace, and
after giving bond he swore out affida-
Wits against j. T. McMurry and his
crew of men who were cutting timber
for Big Pine, making the counter
charge of trespass against them. All
parties are now under bond and the
matter will be fought out in the courts,
This case is somewhat celebrated, as
being one of the settlers cases about
which so much has been written. 1t
has further celebrity from the fact that
Judge Luther E. Hall, now Democratic
nominee for Governor of Louisiana, rem
dered decision in the case in the Cir

Court of Grant parish. The suit is en-
titled Big Pine Lumber Co., Ltd, VS..
Bird & Windham, No. 2539 on the dock
ct in the District Court at Colfax, Grant
parish, and the history of the case up
to Judge Halls decision is as follows:
Big Pine Lumber Co. sued Bird &
Windham for $3.50. 90, for timber cut,
and alleged they were trespassers, and
the Big Pine Co. produced deeds from
the N. o. Pacific Railway and the Gould
heirs.

they were purchasers in good faith

Good Roads and One Hundred Years
Ago.

GOO0 hOd0S anu OHc AluhoA ~ ~~
Ago.
Parties who are disposed to
criticise the three miles OF good
roads," leading from Colfax into
the hills, would do well to re-
member that one hundred years
ago all the country hereabouts
was one dense swamp and cane
brake. A large portion OF the
year nearly all of the country
was under water, and the Indians
were only able to get out to the
banks of Red river in their canoes
by parting the cane and showing
their way through it. Uncle
Donas Lemoine, who died few
years ago, used to tell many in
teresting things about the times
when he could kill wild turkeys,
dear, bears and wolves right here
where the most of Colfax now
stands. Just think of the labor
it has taken to cut down the
mighty cypress and oak trees,
clean out the canebrakes, ditch
and drain the land and build
turnrows.
Don't anybody forget it, good
roads have come to stay. None
of the persons now living will
ever live to again see our roads
in as bad a condition as they
have been for the past few weeks.
The conditions for building
roads have been unusually bad,
and the continuous rains have
made the freshly thrown up dirt
quagmire very much like 9
newly plowed field after a rain.
A few weeks of sunshine viii
soon put all in good humor, anc
after the roads have once become
sodded and packed all of oul
troubles about bad roads will b.
over, and we make the confident
prediction that no man now living
will ever again see the roads O.
this country in as bad condition.

An Overflow of the River is Not I'm

An OvernOW Oh the River Is NOt I'M
minent.
The United States Snag Boat G.
w. Howell, Capt. Ferguson COM
handing, passed up the river
late Saturday evening, en- route
to Shreveport. Capt. Ferguson
stated that the water was very
high in the Black river country,
but that he was surprised to find
that the current in Red river was
unusually rapid between t h e
mouth of Black river and this
city, showing thatthe flood was
passing out at a rapid rate. He
does not anticipate great deal
more water at this point, unless
heavy rains continue. His rea-
sons are that the river is falling
at points above, and the fall will
reach here in a very few days,
as there is no great amount of
water in sight at the head waters
of Old Red.
The rapid rise that brought the
river so high here last week, has
already fallen off to an apprecia.
BILE extent, and unless we have
unprecedented rains, it will soor
begin to fall. We believe it will
be safe to say that our farmers
whose lands are subject to over
flow, need not have great fears
of an overflow this season. -Towr

He was born at Happy Valley. in

Once pension agent at Knox
