Domestic Economy,

Many honsekeepers are often an

off all the water and sit the vessel back
on the stove and allow the potatoes to
steam until thoroughly cooked. By
observing this rule, he says, the skins
Of the potatoes will never burst open.

In pursuance to their announcement,
nine bona fde specimens of the above genus
homo with their mustangs, heavy saddles,
native garb and half dozen long horned,
slsb-sided Texas steers, appeared at
the Fair Grounds on Saturday afternoon
last. An audience of about 200 persons,
drawn from Brookhaven and the four
winds outside were on time to see the fun,
and the bali opened.
The riding, skill and daring recklessness
of these sons of the Western plains, as they
rode down, lossoed and tied tight and fast
the most powerful OK, was marvellous, and
we'll worth witnessing.

The Brookhaven leader., 1883-06-21

This most estimable lady died suddenly
Of dropsy Of the heart at her home in this
city on Saturday night last. She had been
in very delicate health and great sufferer
for months, and her death was anticipa-
ted, though not in the sudden way in
which it came.
Mrs. Chrisman was born in Lawrence
county in 1879, and was consequently at
the time of her death, in her saith year. In
1854 she was married to Hon. J. B. Chris
man, now the honored Circuit Judge of
this district, to whom, until the day Of her
last illness, she was faithful helpmeet in
all that term implies. She. was known to
the community as a true, exemplary Chris
tian, a devoted wife and tender mother,
kind neighbor and faithful and sympa-
thizing friend.
On Monday morning Rev. J. r. Parish
at the Baptist church paid fitting tribute
to her memory in the presence of a large
congregation which had assembled to offer
this last mark of respect to the dead, and
she was then laid quietly to rest beneath
the sod upon the hill.
Her distinguished yet deeply stricken
husband, and her sons and daughters, who
cherished toward her the strongest ties of
filial love, have the sympathy of the entire
community in this time of sore bereave-
ment.

Mule Thief.

On Saturday night last Mr.. J. p. Lee
had a fine 5000 mule stolen from the stable
of Mr.. r. X. Scott, of Franklin county, by
young man living in the neighborhood
named Monroe Lea. Lea was here Mon
day trying to trade the mule to Marshal
McClendon, and not being successful, had
only left town short while, when num-
Der of gentleman from Franklin came
along on his trail. We have heard since
that he was followed and overtaken at
Wesson with the mule still in his posses
sion, and that he was carried back to
Franklin. We understand that Lea was
raised in the community where he. COM
mitted the theft, and before this act bore a
good name.
