MRS. GOLDMAN DIES.

Mrs. Hannah Goldman died Sunday
at 1870 p. m. after long and painful
illness, interspersed with acute attacks
of an alarming nature. One of these
came on Saturday night and the end
followed. The burial took place in
Hebrew Rest, 1890 o'clock Monday
morning, Mr.. B. Leopold reading the
service. Mrs. Goldman was 70 years
old, widow of Joseph Goldman, who
died here about twenty years ago. She
was native of Germany but had
resided during most Of her life in the
United States. Her nearest relatives
are MI Jake Blum and Miss Ella
Teutsch, nephew and niece respective
ly, and brother in Germany. Mr.. Ru-
dolf Teutsch of st. Francisville is a
cousin. Her brothers, Herman, Ber-
nard and Louis Teutsch, and sister,
Mrs. F. Blum, all preceded her to the
grave. Though so bereft of living
kindred, she was tenderly cared for by
friends and neighbors, Mrs. Ben Leo
pold particularly being constant in her
ministrations to the lonely sufferer.
Before the decline of Mrs. Goldman's
health, one of the prettiest flower gar
dens in ST. Francisville was hers, and
hemmed in as it was between other
buildings, it always struck a pleasant
note of surprise when the passerby
came upon it. 1t was an emblem of
the fact that though always something
of recluse, an interest in affairs bios
somed as brightly in her life as the
flowers in her garden.

The Thanksgiving offering at Grace
Church for the orphans was good,
though not so large as last year There
were however Is sacks Of sweet po-
tatoes, and a quantity of pecans be-
sides milk and other eatables. A ship
ment was made to the Home, Friday,
and another will be made next week
as some donations are yet to come in.
1t is therefore not too late for those
wishing to give thanks in this form to
do so. Sweet potatoes are especially
helpful And don't forget that barrel
of pecans would be wonderfully fine
oIerfng. If sufficient of these nuts
come in next week to encourage hold
ing until a barrel is madeup, they will be
kept to send for the orphans Christmas.

HoNoRs FOR HOME GIRLS.

Supt H. C. Culture of Kansas has
asked Mr. Brown of Baton Rouge to
help him with an experiment in the
form of Methods of Teaching in Coun-
try Schools" Mr. Brown has asked
eight parish superintendent to choose
one teacher, each to carry out the
experiment. Miss Hilda Simmons has
been asked, by Supt. L. D. McCollister
|of Beauregard parish, to take up the
work and report to Supts. Culture,
Brown and McCollister at different
times. Considering the large number
of teachers among whom the selection
was made, this is a signal compliment
to Miss Simmons.

under date of Nov. II, says Of another
West Feliciana girl:

Leake was unanimously elected editor
in-chief of the 1856 publication. Miss
Leake is the daughter of Mrs. E. M.
Robertson, (sic) an editor for twenty
five years, the present editor and pro-
prietor of the st. Francisville True
Democrat, and has been literally raised
on editorial matters.
Miss Leake has accepted her cleo
tion in truly resigned manner, taking
what seems to be an Office of arduous
duties given her by the entire staff.
She begins work on the Giggler some
what handicapped by the lateness of
her election, but with her talent and
the cooperation of the staff evinced by
her unanimous election, will be able to
maintain the standards set by former
editors of the Giggler in presenting an
attractive booklet twice each year."
AS this honor usually falls to a
senior, and Miss Leake is only soph
