Whether or not this nation as .
 whole is being advantaged in trade by
 the European war, it is apparent that it has become the repository of large
 sums of money sent here by Euro oean
 investors who prefer the stability of
 peace to the risks of investment in the
 war-torn nations. Some of the recent activity on the New York stock eX-
 change is due to this cause. Far from sacrificing the existing American stock holdings. many European investors are retaining them and investing their surplus funds on the American mar kets. It is also true that many Of the staple stocks may DOW be purchased at extremely low prices, promising both prompt payment of dividends and a profitable rise in values. There Is also some activity in good income in the larger cities through the investments of foreign capitalists. A notable example of the friendship of foreigners for American investments is the recent purchase of blocK of flat houses in New York City by Vic toriano Huerta. the former president of Mexico, who is said to have acquired worth s1,50O,O00 through the purchase of equities to the amount of s300,000. While the foreign war has unsettled our foreign trade and stim- ulated it only in spots. it has brought us a distinct asset in the stability of investment that the nation is able to show at a time when so large a portion of the civilized world is engaged in destroying values-Ex.

Miss Mary Bolton Wade, of jefferson
county, died in this city at $3.50 p. m.
Saturday after an illness of several
months.
She was born in jefferson county,
April 18th, 1912. She was the daughter
of the late Wilson Wade, who was a
native of South Carolina, and Mrs.
Martha Dunbar Wade, Of Adams county.
She was a cousin of Walter r. Wade
and aunt OF Mrs. Eugene Enochs. Miss
Wade was frequent visitor to Natchez
and had many friends here.
The funeral was held this morning at
the family burial ground near Red Lick,
Rev. Joseph Kuehnle officiating.
The above notice of the death of Miss
Mary Bolton Wade is taken from the
Natchez Democrat of Monday, 18th
inst, and the news of the death Of this
good lady is learned in St. Joseph with
greatest regret by many of our older cit
liens, who knew her quite we'll when she
made her home with the late Mrs. ii. A.
Garrett as companion for her mother, the
venerable and lamented Mrs. ]. F. H..
Claiborne, widow OF the distinguished
Mississippian. During her residence in
st. Joseph Miss Wade was universally
beloved by our people, who appreciated
her kindly nature and strong Christian
character, and her devotion to hercharge.
Miss Wade was cousin OF Hon. Thos.
NJ. Wade, of st. Joseph.

Mrs. A. +. Green left, Thursday, for
Won Ormy, Texas, whittier she was called
by wire from her brother, DR.. J. E.
Slicer, who is with her husband, Mr.. A..
E. Green, the popular attorney, at that
resort. Mr.. Green went to Texas about
month ago, in company with Mr.. B..
F. Young, and entered the Won Ormy
Sanitarium, near San Antonio, with the
hope that the dry Western climate might
prove beneficial to him. Advices received
from the attending physician and nurse,
however, have not been encouraging and
have of late caused gravest alarm among
his friends, and the prayers of our entire
people have been offered for this good
mans life to be spared to his friends and
loved ones. His condition as we 60 to
press remains practically unchanged.
LATER. We regret to announce that
just before going to press news comes
from Won Ormy that Mr.. Green has de-
veloped pneumonia and that his pbysic-
ians have about given up all hopes.

The sympathies of their many friends
in this town and parish are extended to
Mr.. and Mrs. Julian v. .Bemiss in the
death of their infant son, which occurred
at their home at Shreveport ON Sunday
of last week. The little fellow had been
with them only long enough to entwine
his affections about the hearts of his fond
parents and grandparents and his going
leaves an aching void that can never he
filled and which time alone can relieve
but never efface.
The sunshine of love could not warm
his little life nor the affection of parent
hood begnle him from dropping. His
breath went out like the exhalation of a
sweetly fragrant minion Of the woodland
and in his stead was left only holy and
beautiful memory-a memory that will
last and sanctify as long as parental ex-
istence. May Gods purest angels guard
his slumbers!

Clerk of the Police Jury advises me that

watts last year the sum OF $6,l 10

collection, So. 1885.
1t is difficult to tell just what fu-
tn-e collections will be. The road tax
collections are uncertain, and grow less

an unusually large delinquent roll, but

The high stage of the water in

one of the pleasurable afternoon rec

the following young ladies and gen.
