FIRST STORY

Prof Carl de Retsky flung a regret ful glance at the hills, hurling their rugged battlements against the twi- light that marked a definite end to his vacation. Vacation-rest from the weary grind, the loathsome task of training voices that could never be other than mediocre, voices that tor tured his finely tuned nerves so ex- quisitely he had been forced to these same hills that the vast silences might perform their healing function He opened his mouth, laying his throat with the clear air, drinking in great drafts of 1t as though trying to store away a reserve fund of that silence for the future. And then
 Then the voice reached out to him Faintly. at first, but steadily increas- ing in volume until the silence was put to utter rout
 Such voice! Rivaling in purity, clarity and sweetness the voices of nature. Dazed by his incredulous de- light, the singing master followed the sounds till he found himself leaning against farm house fence, staring at young man upon the porch, his hand some face pressed against the bars of canary's cage, his eyes glstening with delight as he held vocal contest with the fluffy little creature. A rich, -&arm red came from beneath the heavy coat of tan es he caught sight of the stranger, halting his song ab- ruptly as he inquiringly approached.
 Such a voice! Such an organ" De Retsky stopped abruptly as he found his enthusiasm carrying him away q have never heard the song before" he continued inquiringly.
 "Song!" The young chap laughed T was just teasing the bird-that's all"
 Teasing the bird!" the singing teacher repeated the words in bewil- derment He drew a card from his pocket as the youth smiled He did not care to be laughed at-De Retsky. The young man caught his displeasure instantly
 Thank you" he murmured grate- fully. q was smiling because my fa- ther just ;old me that my voice didn't go very far when it came to killing weeds"
 You should cultivate that voice such voices belong to the world and not to the individual" De Retsky frowned.
 He stopped as he noticed the change of expression that had come over the singers face as he studied the card with evident recognition.
 Cultivate my voice?" His voice was husky, hoarse. Cultivate 1t! But who will pay for the job-who pays?" He looked about him. at the tiny farm house, the small farm, the shabby out houses, all indicative of small means.
 "Yes-that's it. Who pays?" De Retsky muttered, a faint smile upon his lips For he knew the ultimate payment would not be found within so small a space; would not be taken from wealth or that which went to make wealth, but from the human heart. Whose heart?

street Russell Ave-, he started building it
up, and now he has twenty-four build
ings on the tract.
Since then Richardson has erected the
old Fellner-Crow store and the Lucy
block, and when the big fire wiped out
the Fellner-Crow building completely
and singed the Lucy block guesses were
hazarded by tie pessimlsts that ''he will
not rebuild for awhile" and the Fellner-
Crow Co. would have a long, long stay
in their cramped quarters in the Jo-
sephine Building.
But nothing like that for Russell. As
soon as the embers ceased smoking, and
the twisted structural iron in the burned
district cooled off, Richardson started re-
building, and the Fellner-Crow store,
better in every detail than the old struc-
ture, is the result.
In conclusion, rs Richardson says, if
he has too much vacant property, he
sells it, for ii he keeps it long enough to
get acquainted with it, he'll build on it to
Boost East st. Louis

Nathaniel Cullens, a we'll known
and highly esteemed colored citizen
Of St. Joseph, died at his home
here on last Friday night, about 6s
years of age.
Deceased was born on the old
Murdoch property. in Claiborne
county, Miss. and belonged to that
well known family before the war.
Coming to Tensas parish some time
after the war, he has continuously re-
sided here and by economy and
industry accumulated considerable
property, and has always enjoyed
the good will and highest regard of
all of our people. In his earlier
life, Cullens served as cabin boy on
some Of the palatial steamers that
used to ply the Mississippi River
and had the distinction Of being on
the Str. Rob't. Z. Lee in her i'm
mortal race with the Str. Na:chez
from New Orleans to St. Louis.
This boat race was the issue of the
day for months both before and af-
ter it was run and thousands, per-
haps millions, of dollars changed
hands on the result. The Lee left
the New Orleans wharf at 4:55 p.
m. on June Both, 1870, and reached
st. Louis on July 3rd. at 11:25 a.
M. Der time being just three days,
eighteen hours and thirty minutes. a
distance Of twelve hundred and ten
miles. with Capt. Jos. W. Cannon
in command. Cullens was always
proud Of having been aboard this
boat and her picture hung over his
fireplace until his death.
For thirty years or more Cullens
has served as valet to Judge Cordill
and perhaps no friend had closer
bold on the latter's affection than
be. The remain weres inferred in
the grave yard on the Cammack
place, near Newellton, deceased and
John Commack having been life
long friends. He is survived by bis
widow aid one child, Carneal Gull
lens, now q student at Alcorn Col
lsge, Miss, and a most exemplary
boy. Deceased was always a good
citizen. a true friend and reliable
man, and lived useful life and
will be greatly missed in our town.
His influence upon his race was
great and always exercised for good.
The sympathy of bis white friends
IL extended his widow and son in
their affection.

RUSSELL l. RICHARDSON.

The East st. Louis Mail, published at
East St. Louis, Illinois, in its issue Of
November 18th, containing the following
very complimentary mention of Mr.. Rus
ssil A. Richardson, the popular architect
and builder, who has done perhaps more
than any other man toward the up-build-
ing Of that progressive city.
Mr.. Richardson is native Of Tensas
parish and spent his entire boyhood here
and has many friends among our people
and who will be delighted to know of the
success that he has attained in his
adopted home. The Mail says:

Russell A. Richardson is known as the
man who is ''For East st. Louis at least
that IL the way he feels. and whether he

Or Cuba, Richardson never tires of boost
ing East St. Louis.
Russell A. pleads guilty OF being in the
soal estate business, but unlike some real
men, owning vacant ground isn't his
hobby. Richardson started in by build
ing the Richardson building ON Collins
vile avenue, and his only answer to tire
scoders, who said it wouldn't pay, is that
tbcy should watch East ST. Louis grow.
They did and while the growing was

dsstroyed it. he calmly built it up bigger
than ever.
