 The united action of the United States. Brazil. Argentine and Chile will remove a great responsibility from the United states and will do much towards removing that suspic- ion which has existed in the minds of our southern neighbors, that the United States had grown to be

For about a month past Mr.. w. E..
Ivey has had a number of teams at work
on the old Arkansas road, leading north
out Of this place. The first four or five
mile stretch of this road includes several
long red clay hills and an effort is being
made to give these dressing of top
soil containing good per cent OF sand
and to mix the same into the clay as
we'll. Weather conditions have greatly
interferred with the work, but Mr.. Ivey
thinks he has materially improved the
condition of the roadway, as will be

Death of w. H. Hodges.

From Sundays Shreveport Caucasian
William H. Hodges, aged sixty three
years, died at Hot Springs, Ark, Friday
morning. He had been in failing health
for several months, and had been taken
to Hot Springs in the hope OF improve
ment.
He was native OF Bossier Parish and
had been engaged in farming for many
years, being numbered among the largest
planters of that section. In his death
the parish loses progressive and en-
terprising citizen.
By his personal qualities he endeared
himself to his friends, and no man in
this section of the State enjoyed wider
friendship than he.
His remains were brought here and
then taken to Haughton, where the burial
took place in the family burying ground
yesterday.
Mr.. Hodges was never married. He
is survived by his brothers, ]. L. and
C. B. Hodges and number Of other
relatives.
Mr.. Hodges. home was at Elm Grove,
in the southern portion Of this parish,
and that community and the entire parish
and State as we'll have sustained a dis
tinct loss in his death. Mr.. Hodges was
one Of the representative citizens of our
parish, and more than that. Quiet and
reserved in disposition, possessed OF keen
foresight in the commercial affairs of the
day, operating on large scale and at all
times upright, charitable and congenial
toward his brother man, he was marked
as leader, and as such will be sadly
missed. His lifelong friends through
out Bossier Parish are legion and his
memory will prove lasting.
A good man and princely gentleman
has been claimed by Death.
