A BROTHER BELOVED

Dedicated to the memory of S. l.
Spring by his sister:
A brother beloved has gone to rest
His home is now among the blest
His pain and sufferings are now Ger
He's crossed the tide and reached the
shore.
Naught can disturb his calm repose,
He sleeps the sleep no waking knows,
He's victor now, the race is run,
The crown is gained the goal is won.
The folded hands have Iabored long,
The voice oft heard in sacred song,
The songs we sang in days of yore,
Are with me still though he's no more.
Seven links composed the family chain
Six links are broken, l alone remain,
I wait to hear the summons come,
Ny weary child, come home, come

Colfax Needs Night Telegraph Servic'

Colfax Needs Night Telegraph Service.
We have had complaint made
to us several times lately on the
lack of night telegraph service at
Colfax, and we rise to add our
protest against the inadequate
service now in force. We have
no criticism to make of the day
service, but as our town is about
the third best on the L. R. & N.
from a business standpoint, we
are entitled to telegraph service
commensurate with our import
ance. Besides the advantage a
night telegraph operator would
be to our commercial interests,
the night train schedules make il
absolutely necessary to have a
night operator for the benefit OF
,the travelling public.

VIM Parish Court House Burned.

Winfield, La, Jan. 18.-The
Winn parish court house was
destroyed by fire at an early hour
this morning for the third time
in the history of the parish, since
the original building was burned
in 1868, the second being destroy
ed in 1888. The building, when
erected in 1895, cost $40, 900, but
was valued at $25, 600 when de-
stroyed. 1t was insured for
SIS. 900.
The police jury will meet to-
morrow and, it is believed, will
set on foot Immediately plans to
build a modern court house to re-
place the one destroyed this
morning. This has been much
discussed for some time, as the
business has outgrown the old
building, considered commodious
when erected ~ years ago.
The fire is believed to have
originated in a defective fire
place in the treasurer's office.
The alarm was turned in at 2 a.
M, but before the fremen could
arrive the entire roof was In
flames. The walls stand, but
were too badly damaged to form
a base for repairs. The vaults
were untouched by the fire anc
the records of the clerk ant
sheriff were saved. The asses
sor's records, however, were de
stroyed.

Why Tires Blow Up.

Just what makes an automobile
tire burst sometimes, even when
in apparent good condition, is
found among the circumstances
surrounding the pumping Of the
tire. .-r
tits astounding to what fig
ure the pressure in a tire may
reach. if it be pumped up in the
shade or in a cool garage and
then left standing in the sun for
an hour or SO. Suppose the tire
be pumped to a pressure of 81
pounds per square inch in a cool
ing plant where the temperature
is exactly 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then let it be taken into the sun
shine where the temperature may
be as high as lis degrees or
more. The pressure in the tire
will be raised from so pounds to
about 60 pounds to the square
inch.
The moral of course is that
when a tire is pumped up in the
shade and one knows that subse-
quently the car will be left stand
ing in the sunshine for some
time, the tire must not be pump
ed up too tight. On the other
hand, if the tire is pumped up
after the car has been for a time
| in the sun it can be pumped to a
desired tightness, for no matter
where it goes subsequently (un-
less into a boiler ROOM no extra
distention will occur.

Ask
For Increase In
Freight Rates

Baton Rouge, Jan. Il.-Wltn
the largest crowd of railway Off
Gals, attorneys and commercial
representatives ever in attend
ance, the Louisiana Railroad
Commission this morning began
it's hearings on the application OF
all the big carriers in Louisiana
for a general advance of class
rates. At the opening of the
session representatives of ship
pers moved for a continuance on
the ground that they had not had
sufficient time to- prepare their
case. This motion was overruled,
the chairman of the commission
announcing that the railroads
would be allowed to present their
case now, and if the shippers
then desired more time it would
be granted and their rights fully
protected.
The case for the carriers is be-

urges the people to take note.
Texas also is interested. The
railroads contend that Beaumont

Vicksburg are threatening from

rates is the safest protection
from the invasions. Merchant
and jobbers hold the opposite
