DEATH OF MRS. ROBLEY S.
STEARNS.

If beautiful flowers tenderly laid
around the departed is an evidence of
kindly feeling and high esteem, then
did the friends of Mrs. Robley S.
Stearns evidence their tender feelings
for one who was so good and so popu-
lar and who was cut off in the prime of
life.
The death of Mrs. Stearns was in
deed a severe shock to all who knew
her, especially was this so to the read
ers of The Herald, which last Thurs
day published an account of her crit
ical illness and that report from her
bedside was encouraging. But our pa
per had hardly gone to press when a
turn for the worse took place and she
went to her reward.
Mrs. Stearns' funeral was attended
by a large number of her Algiers
friends. The floral offerings were
beautiful and the great number further
the high esteem in which she
was held; as we'll was it a tribute to
her good husband, who has the sympa-
thy of his co-workers, friends, and &C.
quaintances in our district.

THE HER AID
FRANK p. HUGHES.

Frank P. Hughes, clerk and operator
in the Police Department for more
than eighteen years, succumbed to
heart failure suddenly at his home, 632
North Olympia street, shortly before
midnight last Tuesday, March 20. He
was one of the best-known men in the
police department, and his death is
sincerely mourned by all the members
of the force together with those who
had the pleasure of his acquaintance.
He has one of the cleanest records
among clerks and operators. He went
off duty at D. m. Tuesday, in appar-
emily perfect health, ate hearty meal
and shortly after retiring was stricken.
The funeral took place at 4 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, Rev. A. Ed
brooke of Grace Episcopal Church, Of
floating The body was escorted to
the Masonic cemetery by officers of
the department, ranking officers, and
many high in municipal affairs were in
the sad cortege Sergeant Charles
Roy of the Fourth precinct station,
where Frank was detailed at the time
of his demise, was in command of the
police escort by order of Superintend-
ent Reynolds. Corporal Prados, Clerks
Chadwick, Price, Barrios and Cronan,
and twenty patrolmen formed the es-
cort, all from various precincts. He
leaves to mourn his loss a devoted
wife, his loving parents Joseph and
Melanie Hughes, sisters Dora, Corinne
and Frances; brothers Robert G. and
Joseph T., together with numerous
other relatives of our town. Frank p.
Hughes was born in Algiers forty-two
years ago, educated in the public
school here, and for a number of years
served as messenger and operator for
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, before entering the police SER
vice, in which he gave the best years
of his life.
AS no one dies who lives in the
hearts of those they leave behind, so
will the memory of many of the friends
of Frank P. Hughes be refreshed in
future years when some good deed of
which he did is recalled.

LARGEST PUMPING PLANT IN THE
WORLD TO DRAIN NEARBY
TRACT.

The largest pumping plant in the
world, according TO an announcement
made by Geo. A. Hero, Saturday, will
be constructed by the Jefferson-Plaque-
mines drainage district to drain the
40. 900 acres of wet lands in the rear
of and below Algiers. Six pumps are
to be installed in the plant. Four of
these will have greter capacity than
any ever before constructed. Each OF
the four will be able TO handle 192,OOO,-
OOO gallons of water in "A hours. The
other two will have a capacity of ga,
600. 900 gallons each in "a hours.
The plant when all of the pumps are
in operation will be able TO handle
nearly 900 100000 gallons of water in
"a hours. The immense capacity of
the station will probably be more read
lily understood when it is realized that
the four pumps operated by the sewer
age and water board to supply New
Orleans with water have capacity OF
only about 100000 gallons day
each. AS a rule it takes only one of
these to supply all the water needed.
The new plant will also have 60 per
cent greater capacity than the largest
station maintained by the sewerage
and water board TO drain the city.
