who residek nnar Collierville, this
county, and who is now at Vicksburg
as the agent for the Kountz line Of

charge o fthe officials, and then were
afterwards sold at public cry. Mr.. A.

ment at the time Of the seizure, and b.,

ESCAPE.
A Captive Maid by the Musical

This was the concluding sentence
to an article in the LEDGER of the Sd
inst, and referred to the probable
length Of Dixie Wagner's stay in the
Home.
1t was exactly six days and six
hours-Dixie made a leap for liberty
at eleven O'Clock last night.
At Eve O'Clock on the evening of the
Sd, Dixie left the criminal court room
with the ladies Of the Christian asso
citation and in a very short while was
established in a pretty room in the
third story of the Mission Home on
Alabama street, near Thornton ave-
nue.. A week passed, all but a day.
Six days of the three hundred and
s~ixty-fve were worried through With,
and a feeling of fancied security per-
vadei the wing Of the building in
which the fair Dixie languished.
Early this morning, whilea reporter
lounged in tho station house door
waiting for something to turn up, he
was startled by seeing one Of the la
dies Of the association stop IN front Of
the chief 5 office across the way and
%anxiously beckon to a captain Of po-
lice. The words, Dixie and must
see chief" suddenly electrified him,
but he could hear no more. The pc
lice officials were dumb. The ladies
of the association were dumb all
we're silent, and nothing could be
heard but the faint refrain of that
word Dixie" But it is p~roverbial
that the adies-confding creatures
can't bear to inaiot the torture Of
suspense for very long upon their male
servants, or in other words CAM
bottle a secret. Before noon it be.
came generally known that a romantic
escape had been made from the Home

winter, will reopen a mammoth mu-
scum here during next week. His
attractions are much more numerous

ghost sensation, one of the most pleas

immense number of c~uriosities, will
form the grand attractions of Halls
museum. Mr.. Hall, having expert
enced many iaYors at the hands OF
Memphians, returns among his old
friends better prepared than ever to
give satisfaction to the amusement
loving public. Halls museum will,

which he gave a complimentary benefit
last spring. The entire receipts on
the occasion will be devoted to the

A saw mill situated on the bank Of
Wolf river, above the city, belonging
to Yensble & Rawlings, was destroyed

did not proceed. The structure
burnett the ground in consequence.
No lumber or material was destroy

$500, Of which $500 was laid in
Murphy & Murphy's agencies, $1,000 il

clean the coascr cornstalks are eaten
when cut and treated in this way,
especially if a little seasoning Of salt,

The value Of swale hay for feed is
often greater than it has the credit

purchasing cattle feed, TO invest the
larger proportion in concentrated
feed, like corn meal, shorts, bran, &C.,

not be taken from a NOW, carted to
a distance and again unloaded with

is generally supposed.
