Unheralded Heroes of theWar

By MARK ANDREWS

TT was a little after : o'clock on New lined the American trenches at that particular spot in France had seen less than AS hours of life at the real front.
 Everything was as quiet as death on the field of battle as the last hours of the old year wore away. "So quiet.' as one boy put It. 'Tt made me feel queer. I wanted to yell or sing or do anything 10 make q noise to break the awful silence. But the fellow next to me told me I'd better not unless l wanted to commit suicide
 The boy who wanted a noise hadn't long to wait for it. however. for in few minutes, with a crash the like or which he had never heard before, bombardment opened. Shells fell every where. but more particularly in the area back of the American positions, which told the older officers that the Germans probably had a raid In mind, and were laying down barrage to cut OH the units in the front trenches.
 A corporal tried the telephone and found that the wires were cut. There was no doubt now as to the intentions of the boche. Rockets were sent up signaling TOT support aLlu tho SlcS4l doushhoys settled down to walt the coming of the Huns.
 Tho wait wasn't & long one. The Ger man positions were only about 70 yards In front of the American outposts at this point, but the intensity of the shell fire and the blackness of the night allowed the enemy's lines, which advanced at double quick, to sweep in upon the wait ing Tanks almost before they knew it.
 Only a minute or two before the ap- pearance of the first of the Huns the corporal who had tested the telephone had remarked:
 Boys, 1t looks like we are in for q little sc-Ap all on our lonesome. But re- member we can whip anything they send over. So stand pat and give it to en."
 Every man had gripped his rife a little tighter, and though the arrival of the boche was little ahead of the Yan- kees' figuring. every man was ready to receive them when they came.
 Two boys from North Dakota were in tho fight that took place that night They were real ''buddies," and were "uT against" their first experience in req war together. In the days of theil training they'd often wondered what i

 Early in the short engagement one of the boys fell shot in the chest and again in the shoulder. His puddle immedi- ately took a position over him and fought like tiger to protect him.

TO REPAIR PAVED STREETS.

IT. will be a source of much gratit1-
cation to the people of this city to
learn that an attempt is to be made
to repair the bitulithic pavement IN
Railroad avenue and Mississippi
street. An experiment is to be made
with a highly recommended prepare
ton. known as ''Tarvia, the 4. z.
Cold Patch," small quantity OF
which has been purchased by the city.
Railroad avenue, between Opelousas
and Claiborne streets, has been Sc
lected for the experiment. The work
will begin next week and will be UNI
der the supervision of Commissioner
of Streets and Parks John Schatf. II
the new process proves satisfactory,
the whole of the two streets will be
resurfaced in the near future. 1t IS
yery much to be hoped that the prep
aration will prove everything that IS
claimed for it and that the expert
ment will prove successful and that
before many more &s,,ks have elapsed
both of these thoroughfares will have
been placed in condition OF
thorough repair.

Exit Of the Scrub.

Canals Of prosperity, sthe dipping
yats' are certainly paving the way
to future prosperity of the cattle in
dustry in Louisiana. In ten months
1000 pure bred beef cattle and 1900
pure bred dairy cattle have been inn
ported efrQm northern tick-free mar
kets into Tyr tick-free parishes.
Louisiana in few years will be able
to supply its own needs and the
needs Of other southern states for
pure breeds. This is as it should be,
the south is the ideal place and ex-
ceptionally well blessed for stock
raising. Isolation is a curse that
produces degenerate stock in some
of our herds by improving breeding
Where no outside blood has the
chance to penetrate, scrub stock is
the product. The best breeders are
those who search the world for the
best strains of blood. Providing for
emergencies that are known to arise
in the cattle family, every cattle
raiser can make money. Is

Loss of Appetite.

As a general rule there is nothing
serious about loss Of appetite, and
if you skip a meal or only eat two
meals day for few days you will
soon have relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in mind
that at least five hours should always
elapse between meals so as to give
the food ample time to digest and the
stomach a period of rest before Sc
cond meal is taken. Then if you eat
no more than you crave and take a
reasonable amount of outdoor exer-
else every day you will not need to
worry about your appetite. When the
loss Of appetite is caused by consti-
patton as is often the case. that
should be corrected at once. "A dose

Stabbed to Death.

Lawrence Butler, a well known
and highly respected colored mechan-
lie and resident of Philadelphia Point,
in the first ward Of the parish, was
stabbed to death on the levee in front
of his home last Tuesday night at
about 8 o'clock. 1t is said that the
deceased was called from his home
about 9 o'clock by a woman, who, it
has since been learned was his wife.
The pair went on the levee together
where a scuffle is said to have ensued
and Butler was stabbed through the
heart. The woman returned home
and went to bed. About 10 o'clock
the same night, the body of the MUIR
dered man was found and sheriff
Hanson notified. He Immediately
repaired to the scene. When the re-
mains Of the dead man were brought
into his house, his w. lert. Upon
investigation the sher1ff learned that
the pair did not get along very well
together. That during the past few
weeks they quarreled frequently over
another woman. These facts, COM
bined with the fact that neighbors
recognized the voice of the woman
who called Butler from the house as
that Of his wife, pointed very strongly
to her as the guilty party. Thurs
day morning all doubt was removed
when the woman surrendered to
Sheriff Hanson and admitted the
killing, claiming that her husband
was beating her at the time and she
stabbed him in self-defense.
