Our little town is very dull. Crops
are looking splendidly; farmers predict an
abundance of corn this fall. Rain has
been needed and to-day We are having a
slow rain, one which will make everything
grow, especially sweet potaioes-owing
to the protracted drought but few have
been setout. Gardens are looking better
since the rain.
There was slight difficulty near here
few days ago, between Henry and Cailie
Fields and Mike Anderson. l have not
the particulars but learn that ii was relative
to horse Mike Anderson had sold Henry
Fields. 1t resulted in Mike getting his
head cut from a lick with pistol At
night after the difficulty mob went to the
Mcqueen place where the Messrs. Fields
were living and sent word tina, they would
be killed. They had gone to Mr.. Easley's
and the only thing that induced them to
give up the horse was Mr.. and Mrs. Eas-
ley's persuading them that eight or ten
men could overpower them and possibly
cause.uouble..to them Es' family. The
troubles not done yet as ii win no doubt
be reported to the grand jury.
We have Temperance society here
which seems TO be prospecting. There is
some talk Of a literary club, which think
will be success, not that VIC expec, to
compete with Brenham, or the larger towns
because the material is rather sparse, but
what We lack in quantity will be made up
in quality.
The young folks anticipate delightful
evening at the residence Of Mr.. William
Wood, lately erected near Graball. Every
body and his wife expects 10 attend. Mr..
Busby seems to be one Of the leading man
ayers and success always attends his I'M ,
dertakings. RosAIISD.

This neighborhood has been blessed
with rains, and the crop prospect is rapidly
frightening for an abundant yield. The
experimental wheat crop of Messrs. Mills
& Wallace has proved success, demon
strating the fact that wheat can and will be
successfully grown in this vicinity. Good
health prevails throughout this neighbour
hood. The Literary sociable met at the
residence of Mr.. James Jones on the even
ing of the 18TH inst, and was largely atten-
ded.-Reading by Mrs. Lockridge, Miss
Bell Kirk, NJ. T. Lipscomh, L. Kirk and
B. Carter. Music.-aTiss Maria Miller
and Miss Rosa Tamplin. An instrument
tai piece by Miss Rosa Tamplin was real
ly enchanting and admirably executed. The
programme was completed by the delivery
ola negro sermon, by the Gay Hill orator,
in his usual style, and creating much mer-
riment. The first anniversary of the Lit
erary sociable will be celebrated by grand
picnic on Monday July aeth. Addresses
will be delivered by Mr.. L. Lipscomb and
Mr.. Sam Govalett. We will before closing
give few political items. l learn that
Bob. Tarver, F. NJ. C. has Legislative as
pirations. We understand the advocates
ofCapt. Williams are rapidly increasing,
and ifnominated we believe the captain
will make vigorous canvass and a sue
cessful race. A reorganization of the Gay
Hill Democratic club will fake place on
Saturday June list. The majority of Dem
ocrats interviewed recently favor the major
ity rule in all conventions, and also favor
instructing all precinct delegates to the
county convention. Every gentleman
wishing to become candidate for any
county Office, had better advertise immedi-
ately as we are satisfied all precinct dele
gates will go to the county convention in
structcd, and those who withhold their
names until the convention meets, will have
but little prospect. We hear several wish
ing to run for assessor, but will not place
the name of any gentleman before the pub
lie for an office of profit. Having read the
BANNER for years, we are proud to say it
has ever been unfinchingy Democratic,
and true to the interest Of our great State
and especially true 10 the local interest of
Washington county. Such a paper could
never refuse to publish local correspond
encc; simply because it advocated the
name of a prominent gentleman for Leg
islative office, Notwithstanding the wishes
of A. E. ny. We respectfully call the at
tention of all precinct meetings to the i'm
portance of selecting and supporting good
and true men for county commissioners.
This being a Legislation body and of vast
to taxpayers should not be

of this ncighborhood has been requested to
allow his name to go before the conven-
ton for county commissioner. Knowing
Mr.. Hill we hope he may be induced to

Bald Heads.

1t is not true as charged by the popu-
lace that the cause Of SO many bald-head-
ed men in Texas is peculiar manipula-
ton of their wives fingers in the capillary
substance on the Uranium, or from eating
so much Texas fat beef and getting tallow
caked up in the roofs oftheir mouths, and
having to pour hot water on the Top OF
their heads to melt it out.
The prime cause is the unuannerly and
unhealthy habit, Practieett hy many, OF
wearing shc;r bats two msch, both in and
outof doors Another cause regret to
say is fromover stimulous. If men will
keep their systems thoroughly saturated
with mean whiskey, which many do, and
wear their hats all the time except when
asleep, it will generate steam enough in
their heads to scald their hair off. The
head should always be kept cool to insure
good hcalth. J.. F. NJ. f
