MARWPINDIALE, Secretary. Why Judge Carter Looked Sorriful. We haven't seen Judge Carter since the storm, but we did see him a week or two beuore the storm. and he looked so perturbed at that time that we formed the idea he knew the storm was coming but would not tell us. On further inquiry, however, we wish to apologis.

for this thought. -We have learned What worried the Judge. The 23d of June was the 21st anniversary of his mar'iage, and it had been custom to celebrate his anniversarie" by presenting Mrs. Carter some pretty present of silver. coull not find just what he wanted in Covingl ton.

Of course he felt a little blue about it, until Jeweler P. E. Smith tod him what he wished could be gotten to Covington from New Or leans in time for him to get back tc adjournment o' court. Mrs. Carter could probably tell that she found the Judge lobking very pleasant.

P. C. Oldier, attorneys for the town and ceatractors, respectively, Counellman A. Depre, Secretary Jai. Hutchiason, Mr.

Garland Molse, Dr. A 0. G. yie and a number of interested eitisens. MrB Blak stated that he would begin sending over his tools and machinery on Thursday and that he would commence the actual work within ten days.

The foregoing needs no comment, for mere words cannot express the local satisfactory feeling existing in connection therewith. Special medical examiners, W. C. 8tilson, in eharge, assisted by W. B.

Taylor of Troop 1st La. Squadron U. S. Cavalry, iisited Mandeville last Tuesday and examined eleven applicants for enlistment. Of this number only three, viz: Richard Dash.

Alton Loustalot and Wi. Rushing, passed the rigid medical examination and left Tuesday for New Orleans thence for Camp Stafford at Alex. andria or Jackson Barsraks to receive equipment and proceed to the Mexican border. Nearly all rejections were because of No man over 5 teet 10 inches being taken for savairy duty. The examiners stated that all the applicants were Ane physical specimens and were loath to refuse them, so the rejected applicants need not be disheartened, for if their patriotism has not yet cooled off, the infantry and naval service is still open to them.

The many friends of Miss Dorothy Band and her family will be pleased to learn that the former, after an operation for a severe and rare allmane, at Hotel Diea in New Orleans about two weeks ago, is much improved and the prospects of her ultli mate recovery are very bright.

The overflowing house fully justided the strenuous efforts made by the participants to please, and that they suencceeded goes without saying, an' Lew Rose again came In for many a hearty hand shake.

I- I I borhood feel that in his departure from among the living something has gone out of our own lives that can never be again, tho ae human ties are broken, the world becomes less and less, and the hope to be reunited rith friends who are gone grows more and more, and that there is immediate compensation, which, while it eannot assuage our grief, may teach relignation to the inevitable doom of all things mortal; Therefore, be it resolved, That in the death of our late brother, Harry R.

Warren, we realise that we have lost another link from the Fraternal Chain which brings as togother, and that a good man and a good Mason has gone from our midst; that his memory will ever be held dear as a member of Covington Lodge No. 188, F. A. and that we deeply sympathise with his bereaved family in their loss, bat say that He who tempere the wind to the shorn lamb looks down with inanite compassion upon the widow and fatherless in this hour of desolation. Be it further resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the Lodge, and a copy thereof be sent to the family of our late brother.
