Prospect.

The complaints of dry weather
were hushed by the splendid rain
last Sunday night, which was need
ed very much, especially for corn.
Not only is vegetation invigorsted,
but we feel refreshed ourselves.
Sickness has abated in this COM
munity since our last, though we
occasionally hear of some in a mild
form. 'vlfd'iss Willie Legg has
had quite a protracted spell OF
fever. Seems to have taken a re-
lapse, but is reported convalescing
to-day.
Our young NJ. d. is not seriously
i'll yet, though he visited patient
in Pulaski last Sunday evening, af-
flicted we believe with heart dis
ease, and from the Doctors appear
ance since then we fear it may be
contagious. Misses Booker Mason
and Willie Richardson have return
ed from their Protracted visits,
which they enjoyed magnifcenuy.
Glad to welcome them home again.
Miss Willie was accompanied by
the highly accomplished Miss Ella
Nelson, who is visiting her numer-
Gus friends and relatives of this
place. Hope her stay will be
lengthy. A certain young gallant
of Athens, who is continually put
ting in his appearance had better
look sharp, or he will get shot. We
can't afford to give Alabama two OF
our brightest jewels.

DINING AND DANCING.
The Island Barbecue-Music, Love,
Pleasure and Full
Stomachs.

Mr.. Greed Fhppin, the inimita
BILE barbecuer and picnic caterer,
originated and superintendent the
most enjoyable barbecue ofthetimes
on the Island above the depot last
Tuesday. By IL o'clock some two
or three hundred ladies, gentlemen
and children had crossed the pom
toon over the slough and were en-
Toying the refreshing shades of the
Island. Pitman's band opened the
festivities with favorite selection,
and ever and anon during the day
kept the vast assemblage vivified
with stirring strains of melody.
Rode's string band was on hand in
time to stir up the young people
in a dance that gave them an appe-
tite for dinner. The table was per-
haps fifty feet long, and never was
one more richly spread. The most
deliciously seasoned meats of all
kinds, bread, cakes, pickles and all
kinds of condiments, were piled up
in lavish abundance, and when per
haps four hundred people had eaten
to safety, there was left plenty un-
touched. After dinner and until
late in the afternoon, the fiddles
and banjos vibrated merrily, and a
throng of gay young people threw
themselves away IN the merry
dance, whirling and shuffiing,
swinging and marching, seesawing
and housekeeping, until paper col
lars went up fifty per cent, and
immaculate linen staggered and fell
and oozed into fiabby flimsiness.
But they enjoyed it, and well they
might, for it was an occasion for
inordinate enjoyment. The usual
amount of counting and side talk
ing was INDUCED in. Here and
there swain had his adored drawn
away from ear shot of others into
some sequestered shade and was
pouring ardent words of love into
willing ears. Across the way was
party of euchre-p players; here a
knot of tale tellers, and there a
bunch of old-timers watching the
youngsters happiness. Above all,
and over all, and through all, there
seemed to brood delicious feeling
of thrilling pleasure, that made the
day one long to be remembered.
The other gents who assisted Pres
ident Flippin and the fair, courte
Gus danes and ladies who assisted
and contributed to make the day a
grand one. all deserve, and would
receive special mention, if we only
knew them all. Sufficient to say,
it was the day of all days this year
to pleasure lovers, and this is the
universal opinion; and then they
say it was the best table they ever
saw spread at a barbecue.

Brick Church Academy.

We attended the closing exercis-
es of Miss Clara Bodenhamer's ex-
cellent school at Brick Church
Wednesday of last week, and spent
an exceedingly pleasant day among
the hospitable people of that neigh
borhood. The academy building
vas filled with an intelligent and
discriminating audience who mani
tested much interest in the exami-
nation of classes, which was certain
ly conducted in a manner calcula-
ted to show the thorough training
the pupils had received. We were
struck with the proficiency of the
pupils, all of whom underwent the
raking fire of questions with much
composure, responding promptly
and satisfactorily in nearly every
instance. Miss Bodenhamer is q
careful and paInstaking teacher and
the excellent character of her work
was happily displayed in the marked
intelligence of her pupils. In the
afternoon the audience was highly
entertained with the following at
tractive

DEPOT DOTS.

A car load of corn is shipped oc-
casionally.
Passenger business is picking up
a little. Five emigrant tickets were
sold to Bonham, Texas, Tuesday.
The movement Of walnut logs
still continues. They are shipped
direct to Hamburg, Germany, via
Norfolk, Va.
The wife Of Rufus Crenshaw, a
conductor on the n. and ID. road,
died in Decatur. Sunday, after an
illness of several weeks.
There have been no shipments OF
wheat from Pulaski SO far, and We
presume there will be few, II any, as
the crop will barely meet TIE de-
mands of home consumption.
Quite a number OF colored people
left Tor Huntsville Sunday 10 attend
a meeting OF the order OF Immacu-
lates in that city. Two passenger
coaches, filed TO overlooking with
them, passed down with the morn
ing train.
The L. 81 N. company are gradu-
ally getting their newly acquired
lines IN working order. Rates have
been made by which agents can
bill to any point on the lines, al
though tariff sheets have not been
completed.
During the stornE Saturday the
lightning struck the wires near tho
depot and streamed into the office
with vivid fash and loud report
which shook up the boys considera-
bly,. The frequent storms have Sc
riously interfered with the working

music pupils of the accomplished

cy in the best possible manner and
to the satisfaction of all present.
An elegant dinner was spread on
the grounds at noon which bore
witness to the culinary skill of the
ladies of the neighborhood, as well
as to their generous hospitality.
We received many kind attentions
during the day, which certainly had
the effect of increasing, if that we're
possible, our affection for that
charming section of the county.

NO Se
WEBB WINS.
A Pulaskian's Good Luck and q
Washington Lawyers
Rascality.

Mr.. Frank Webb, of Pulaski, was
granted letters patent upon his Per
mutation Locs last Tuesday, men
ton of which has heretofore been
made in these columns, The adver-
tisement of the postmaster general
called for four locks tor uses in diff
ferent departments, offering $4,000
for the four. Mr.. Webb's lock an
swers for all four, being, as indica-
ted in the name, susceptible of un-
limited changes of combination.
Every postohlce in the United
States can have its combination and
no other office can open it. The
highest number of combinations
hitherto attained by any paddock is
six hundred, and even then the lock
was too large, unwieldy and liable
to be thrown out Of joint. This
lock is comprised in the space of
two inches square, weighs a pound
and cannot be disturbed in it's com
bination Gen'l Whitthorne showed
it to Gen'l Key and the first inspec-
tor OF patents and they said it
would fill the requirements of all
four locks. Gen'l Key would doubt
less adopt it at once if he were not
going TO retire. 1t cannot fail to
pass, however, for it stands as far
ahead. of anything heretofore in
vented as infinity exceeds six hun
bred. Mr.. Webb came near losing
his lock in getting it patented. 1t
was placed in the hands of Gilmore,
Smith IL Co., patent lawyers, in
Washington, by Gen. Whitthorne.
| Gilmore saw Its merits aud entered
it In his own name, carrying it
through the patent Office until it
came to the first spector-the
same gentleman who had seen it in
Gen. Wnitthorne's hands five
months before. Kersey, the in
spector, told Gilmore that it was
not his patent. but belonged to
Webb, of Tennessee. Gilmore
called him liar and Kersey
knocked him down. The matter re
suited IN a suit. in which Gen.
Whitthorne appeared for Webb,
and the suit resulted in Webb's ia
vor Gilmore was kicked out of
his firm, was debarrcd, and indicted
for perjury. and stands disgraced
and a criminal. Gen'l Key ap.
peared as a witness for Webb. The
patent is now secure and Mr..
Wobb's fortune is made. We con
gratulate him on his success. To
those of our people who know the
young man it is useless to say that
he, deserves success, For moral in
tegrity, social and intellectual at
talntnents and mechanical ingenuity
combined, whole states might be
searched in vain for the equal of
Henry Frank Webb.
