LOCAL NEWS,
The umbrella trade lias been quite
nourishing during tlio past week in-
consequence of the rain.
The large stone boor hall ot our
enterprising old friend, Mr. Kroische,
will soon be completed. It will be
quite an addition to our town.
On last Monday tho new railroad
time table wont into effect. By this
tho time of leaving is not changed
but tbe train arrives at 8:05 instead
of 5 o’clock as heretofore.
We are creditably informed -that
Mr. Nelson has already taken the
contract for the grading of the first
ten miles on the extension and will
begin work on the first of February.
We learn that Dr. K. A. Christian
of Winchester, was so seriously in-
jured a few days since by the acci-
dental firing of some Christmas ex-
plosives, that he died on the 9th.
Mr. J. W. Downing lias resumed
tho reins on tho stage lino to Ledbet-
ter. Mr. Downing is an old and ex-
perienced driver, and travelers can
teel safe under his core.
At tho request of Mr. Mansfield, of
tho firm of Gregory & Mansfield,
nurserymen near Allyton, wc exam-
ined a lot of their trees sent hero to
fill orders from this place, and found
them to bo yory fine.
Our old friend, Dr. A.L. D. Moore,
lias lately fitted up a neat and cosy
little office, for Dr. R. A. McKinney,
iu tho back end of his drug store.
Mr. Moore knows how to fix up things
nice, and if you don’t boliovc it, call
in at tho City Drug Store and be con-
yincod.
For some causo the mail on the
eastern bound train of the main hue
and destmod for this road, is general-
ly delayed one day in Columbus.
This is an incoiivenionco that is oasily
avoidod, and wo hope our officials will
look into the matter.
What has become of the “Mite ?”
Our town enjoys the reputation of
being one of tho most social in the
interior. This we canoot afford to
lose, and wo can fled nothing more
caleulnicd to promote socialbility
and mutual good feeling than the
“Mite.”
Wo call the attention of shippers
and tho traveling public to the now
advertisement of the Gulf, Colorado
and Santa Fe railway in this issue.
This road is owned and run by men
who livo in this state, and has done
more to reduce faro and freights than
any other road in this section of the
country.
Our correspondents are requested
to boil down their articles, and give
us tho double concentrated compound
extract. Short, spicy, and newsy
letters are always welcome visitors at
our sanctum; but our space is too
limited to publish a pago for what
ought to be written iu twenty lines.
Mr. Chas. W. Gregory can trump
tho soason for big turnips. Helms
two of the Pomeranoau white globe
variety hanging in front of bis drug
store, that weigh 4 1-4 pounds each,
and measure, respectively, 17 and 21
Inches in circumference. Mrs. Greg-
ory informs us that sho has many of
the same size and kind at home, and
that they are sweet and juicy, through
nnd through,
Wc call attention to the adver-
tisement of Weimar Institute, found
in this issue. Prof. Dechard has
long stood at the head of his profes-
sion and assisted by his accomplish-
ed daughters,Misses Mittie and Julia;
one a graduate of the State Normal
School and the other of Trinity Col-
lege, he has been enabled to estab-
lish a first class school at Weimar.
The work on our new jail is pro-
gressing slowly, the main wall not
being over two feet above tho sur-
face in the highest places, though
there is quite a lot of dressed stone
on the ground. This is of excellent
quality, being very hard and having
so little lime that there is hut little
danger of its evor crumbling under
excessive beat. . '
Who was that came tearing (low
Colorodo>treet last Sunday cveninj
on the prancing gray, hat in hand,
making more jestures than a colored
preacher at a camp-meeting. Don
Quixote with fourteen bush-whacbers
and a buffalo after him, would not
have cut such a figure. From the
shape of his hat we conclude he must
have come firom New York, It was
not you was it Gue?
Marriage Bells.
On hut Thursday, the 5th Inst., the
young amt well known Mr. Blaokstone
White led to tho hymeneal alter one
of La Grange’s fairest and most ac-
complished daughters, Miss Nannie
Bradshaw- As both parties have been
raised iu this town, they, oi course,
have a largo circle of acquaintances
and friends, all of whom, we aro sure,
will join the Journal Iu wishiug the
haudsouio aud happy pair all tho joys
of a congenial union. May life’s path-
way fbr (hem bo strewn with bright
flo were of oaso and contentment, and
may it ever bo illumined by the sun-
shiue of prosperity,without one single
eloud of adversity or trouble; aud
may they live to celebrate many,
many hajjpy returns of tho joyous
day when their two lives wore united
in one.
liis honor, Judge Stielil, devotes
the entire day Saturday exclusively
to school business, and requests teach-
ers to call in on that day. Tho judge
deserves great credit for the interest
ho lias takou in our public schools.
Maj. C. C. Gibbs aud Mr. T. W.
Pierce, Jr., tho former tho goucral
freight aiid the lattor tho general pas-
senger agent on tho Suuset route, ar-
rived yesterday on a special train.
These arc both polite and eutcrprls-
iug gentlemen, and we bespeak lor
thorn a hearty welcome.
Mr. White, of the firm of J. E. &
F. I. White, who take contracts for
tho hiring of county convicts, will
start the ovil doors of Fayette county,
to their farm in Grimes county
to-day. The Messrs. White have a
largo farm, containing some ton or
twelve thousand acres, and hire con-
victs from the various couutios of tho
state to cultivate it.
Rev. E. 15. Juukiu, of tho Presbyte-
rian faith, preached a very eloquent
sermon to a largo and appreciative
audience at the Methodist church last
Sunday. Miss Leslie Southgate of
Goliad delighted all present with
good music. Dr. Junkin Is a highly
educated gentloman, and Houston
may fool proud that she has so able a
minister.
At the request of our representa-
tive in congress, our county clerk,
Mr. Tlios. Q. Mulliii, has boon ap-
pointed fi9h commissioner to distrib-
ute a lino lot of carp to be sent out in
a short time by the department at
Washington. They aro to bo distrib-
uted free to those best prepared to
take care of them. Farmers having
largo tanks should mako a note of
tliis. hir. Mtilliu knows'uoai'ly every
olio in tho county, and will tako groat
pains to make proper selections.
We accidentally dropped into the
office of our genial friends, Tcich-
mullor, Dunn & Moerscheidt, and
found the Major aud Axel in solemn
conclave discussing their mining
interest in Arizona. The Maj, par-
doned our intrusion and proceeded
with as much zeal and grace as a
Yale College professor to explain
to me his largo collection of Geo-
logical specimens taken from their
mimes. We are somewhat rusty in
the science of stones but think ho has
some valuable ore.
Death of ail Old Citizen.
Wo learn with regret that Col. N.
Thomas, who livod for many years in
tills county, died at his homo iu Wnx-
abachio, Ellis.county, on tho night of
tho 8th. Wo suppose that his remains
will be brought back and interred at
Winchester, where ho spent tho
groat or part of ihis life. Colonel
Thomas was a man of active mental
powors, and retained much of tho
vitality of youth until death. lie
once took an active part in tbe poli-
tics of his couuty, more than once
representing it in legislative halls,
and being a moinber of tho constilu.
tional conyontion of 18GG, Ho leaves
many relatives and a host of friends
who will feel deeply his loss.

London Purple for Ants.
Wo aro infoimed by a practical
farmer of our county, who has been
troublod considerably by ants, aud
mado many oxperiments'to find some
remedy, that Loudon Purple is an
effectual poison for those posts. He
■ays dissolvo a half pound In five gal-
lons ot water and pour tho mixture
luto their hole*. Iii a few days they
will bo exterminated. Purple is very
cheap, and wo hope our citizens w!k>
are troubled with ants will try it.
That Sausage.
Not long back, a certain gentleman
concluded that he wanted some sau-
sage-fresh sausage. A hog was pro-
cured, and also the services of two
oolored gentlemen to out aud grind
so much of the poker as was desired,
into sausage-meat. Alter the meat
bad been inodoluto sausage, tlip own-
er of the hog, aud the wisher for Sau-
sage concluded that tnat sausage-
meat ought to bo smoked a little, and
tho two colored citizens were in-
structed to smoke it accordingly.
A large box was prepared with
shelves in it, and suspended bottom
side up, aud opcu side down, so as to
catch all the smoke; Tho sausage
was placed nicely away on tho shelves,
a fire built uudorneath, aud thou the
colored citizens departod, The fami-
ly of the. sausage mail kept up tho
smoko for two or three days, when
he, tho sausage man, came to the con-
clusion that sausage was a very good
thing to eat, aud proceeded to bring
out his smoked meat—when- yes it
was actually so—uot a particle of sau-
sage was there, but the box had beon
well smoked. A circumstance con-
nected with tho transaction was, that
one of the freo American colored citi-
zens, who did most of tho work
around the sausage, went off aud did
not come back for several days for
his pay. Tho family had never look-
ed into the box to sco wbother any
sausage was there or not, but just
smoked away on tho box. Whether
it was press of busiuoss iu other di-
rections, or whether there was a sense
of guilt pervading the moral sensi-
bility of the said colored individual,
which caused him to delay calling for
his just remuneration, wc are uot en-
tirely prepared to say. Owing to
the parties being well known citizens
wc suppress their names.
