In Memory of Lawrence Weaver.

In Memory Of Lawrence Weaver.
Friend of my youth, so true and brave.
The rain is falling on thy grave.
1t breaks from Heaven and drops in
tears.
Ger him it loved in former years.
The dear old road leads on its way,
Close by thy prison house of clay.
The pine trees sigh above thy head,
And sigh a requiem round thy bed.
The winds take up the sad refrain,
"We'll never see our friend again.
While echoes from the distant shore
Forever murmur "nevermore.
Flowers that bloomed meath thy care,
Now languish in the wintry air,
They'll soon return to mother earth,
Like her whose love first gave them
birth.
Thy light feet, once so swift to bound
70 duty's call or pleasures round.
low tread the paths of earth no more,
) ut wander on the golden shore.
Thy friends call and call in vain,
Tho thou cans never heed again,
While he who won thy virgin soul,
Is desolate beyond control.
In anguish deep we weep in vain,
For him We'll never greet again,
And daily watch the other shore,
For one who'll never return more.
We look to Heaven; we trust in God:
And try to bear the Chast timing rod,
But o, tbs hard to be strong and brave,
With the cold rain falling on thy grave.
A FRIEND.

Buck Harper and Son On a Rampage.
Buck Harner and son William.

Buck Harper and son William,
confined in the Colfax Jail for the
killing Phil Hebert, Junior went
on a regular rampage in the Jail

and sewer pipes in their cells and
after breaking cut all the glass in
the windows within their reach,
proceeded to punch a large hole
through the brick wall of the
Jail on the east side where their
cell came close to the wall. Will
lam Harper seems to have been
the most active in this malicious
destruction of the jail and its
furnishings, but he was en-
couraged and assisted in it by
his father. They injured the
combination on one or two locks
in their reach and did other dam
age amounting probably to q
hundred dollars all told.
They were finally secured and
Buck Harper was placed in a
stronger and more secure cell,
while his son William was hand
cuffed and taken by automobile
to Alexandria Jail about noon
on Wednesday for safe keeping,
while repairs are being made in
the Colfax Jail.
Buck Harper and his son seem
to glory in being considered ex-
C eding tough; and, whether they
are vicious and violent criminals
or insane unfortunates, they
should be securely guarded asa
