Mrs. Antoinette Sompoyroc.

Death is always sad, but CON-
szg at the season when every thing
i brigbt and gey makes it harder
for those over whom Cns asrA l..
pail is thrown, so the death OF
Mrs. Sompavrac on the day after
Christmas saddened q great many.
While the deceased had been more
or less feeble for some time, 1t
was not known she was seriously
i'll, until the summons came and
her death was q great shock to
her family and friends. AS Miss
Antoinette Lemee, she was noted
for her beauty and accomplish
ments in the antebellum days, ane
as the young wife of the late Pau
Sompayrac she was equally noted 4

Mr.. Aswell was not elected gov
'ernor, but he has moved up to q
commanding position in national
affairs. He canvassed the north
west for President Wilson, and
was heralded as one of the great
est orators on either side of the
campaign. And another peculiar
incident is that Wilson carried
every state where Aswell put up
a fight. Any one who. imagines
that lie will have nothing to say
about Federal appointments in
this state and the south, have an
other little think coming to them.
Aswell and Wilson are personal
friends, besides are riding in the
same band wagon. Others may
have something to say, of course
but no appointment will be made
in Louisiana without his appro-
val. His defeat for one office
uade him greater in q larger field
of usefulness.-Franklin Watch

ROYAL WEDDING IN ST. JAMES PALACE

LONDON, Oct Remarkable
simplicity for royal ceremonial
will characterize the wedding of
Prince Arthur of Connaught and the

Of st. James palace today With
such a setting of ornate decorations
and richly painted ceiling as the
quaint old room presents, with the
uniforms of the men of the royal
family and court officials, and the
jewelry worn by the ladies', the cere-

the spectacular, but compared with
the recent wedding of the daughter
Of Emperor William, and devoid of
all professions and military display
the ceremony will be as simple as
adherence to traditions win permit
Partly because Of mourning for
the recent tragic death Of the Duke
of Fife. whose fatal illness was
brought about by hardships suffered
in being shipwrecked on the coast of
Morocco, and partly because both
the bride and groom are constitu-

NEVADA SPUDS
BRINGING GOOD
PRICE ON COAST
COMMISSION MERCHANTS FROM
CALIFORNIA BUYING THE
LOCAL CROP.

California commission merchants,
keen to gather in the fine Nevada
potato, have already purchased some
thing like 100 cars of tubers grown
in this state, according to a reliable
estimate made by the Reno Gazette.
Nevada, in common with the rest OF
the country, has about three
fourths crop, but the Nevada potato
is superior. as usual, to all others,
and is bringing when sold to Califor-
MIA buyers from SIS to $50 ton on
board the cars. This is considered a
very good price for potatoes sold as
they are dug.
In some places the crop is up to
standard of 800 sacks, or $50 bushels,
to the acre, but other places show
less. Purchasers thus far seem to
have conferred their buying in the
Truckee meadows, at Dayton and
Wabuska.
1t is estimated that the Nevada
crop this year will be from 800 to
1900 cars Last years crop brought
but SIS ton early in the season
and nothing later. 1t is believed by
local growers that little trouble will
be experienced on account of the
California quarantine against Nevada
grown potatoes for being affected
with eel worm. as California potatoes
are declared to be worse offenders
in this respect than those grown in
Nevada.

Compensa-
ton Law
Being misunderstood By Many
WOrkmeD.

There appears 10 be in many quart
srs widespread misunderstanding
OF the nature OF the worklngman's s
compensation act, and this is liable
10 lead interested people into Unnecr
essary trouble at time when they
can i'll afford it,. For instance, IL
appears 70 be the popular belief that
If any wage Garner is now injured
while in the employ of a person, COM
any, or corporation, at any work 9th
.er than farm or household labor, he is
entitled to one half his wages and all
medical attendance paid during the
time he is laid up. This is by no
means true as Il general proposition
and the truth should be known.
The Michigan Workmens Compen-
Sation Act is not of general appica-
tion in all OF it's provisions. In fact.
il the employer does not voluntarily
elect to come under its provisions
OF injury the employer will not be
permitted To use as defense (a) cUn-
tributory negligence; (b) assumption
of risk; and (c) act of fellow servant.
If the employer does elect 10 come
under It's provisions then they are
binuing upon him; otherwise nuf.
Before any EMPLOY r who has C.
pied the pro i'iO, 9 Of Il act can be
charged with any LIABILITY for any in-
jury to an employee 1t must be shown
that the injury Was caused by som c
act or negligence of the employer.
The employer is no more responsible
for an accident than he was under
the old law unless he has come under
the new compensation act. No en-
ployer that has not come under the
compensation act is liable for med
ical attendance any more than before
Nor is a~-principat party or com
pany liable as employers, vile her
they are under the compensation act
or not, for injuries To emplnyes of
contractors or sub-contractors On
york they have let out TO such con-
tractors.
Under present conditions MANY bus
mess uen, whose occupation is not
deemed hazardous, think IL wise TO
carry accident aud sickness insur-
auce, aud if it bel needed by these,
how much more should il be done by
laborcrs IN hazardous occupations,
especially when they are employed 10y
parties who have not accepted the
provisions of the compensation act or
are contractors who have limited res
purces. Every person should insure
bis earnings be they great or small.

GRAUSTARK COMING
To Temple Theatre Next
Thursday Night.

The mere announcement that
"Graustark," is coming should arouse
an exceptional interest in all lovers of
the theatre, for as rule they are also
readers Of fiction. and if they have
not seen the play, have read the

lana aud achieved greater popularity
than the works Of Nc CulcheOu,
and the greatest Of these is ''Graus-
tark. " II has larger output than
he combined sale Of all his other
books aud the demand for IL sii con-
tiuues
Mr.. Geo. ID. Baker who adapted
his version from Grace Hayward's
dramatizatioD OF the novel, realized
that the public would wish TO see as
much Of Nc CutcheOn as possible, and
therefore, kept as closely 10 the story
AS the dramatic unitieS would allow.
A guarantee OF the correctness and
beauty Of the production is the name
OF James w. Castle, who staged Nine.
