KAUFMAN.


KAUFMAN, March 1.-TCorrespondence.l i
The excellent weather for the past few
DAYS is exerting an enlivening influence on
our town and surrounding country. the
sound of the saw and hammer is heard IN
every direction, building, repairing ana re-
covering. Our streets are thronged win
people, buying seeds, plows and supplies.
Several important changes have been
made among our merchants. The old and
reliable firm of Bennett d Bro have retired
from business safe and sound. Watkins d
Norwood have dissolved, and will continue
business in different firms. 1t is under
stood that your enterprising Sanger Bros
will establish branch house here in con-
nection with Mr.. Norwood.
Among the novelties in kaufman IS a
neat little residence going up on 6lock
Joining the public square, the walls OF
which are placed at an angle OF 40 degrees
to the points of the compass. The oddity
of the house consists in the fact that all our
streets and houses are situated north and
south or east and west but this one: Alter
all, may it not be best in this prairie conn
try to construct our houses this way in Or
der that each room may catch the summer
breeze.

Quite an interesting case was presented to
his honor, the mayor, yesterday morning.
The defendant luxuriated under the cog,
pomen of Mrs. Holbrook. She was charged
with using indecorous language on pup
lie thoroughfare. While she plead guilty,
she demanded the privilege usually granted
of having say" She stated that in COM
panv with her husband she had been ar
rested BY an officer. She was of the opinion
that she had committed no breach OF the
peace. but rather than create undue noto-
riety she would succumb to the exactions
of a rigid tribunal and cast herself befoI
him as a penitent, and crave his mercy.
She was extended the usual charity
and fined S.. The mayor re,
minded her that, of his own personal
knowledge, Mr.. Holbrook was. no longer
her husband, inasmuch as she had linked
herself to Mr.. Raster, an aged gentleman,
for veal or woe This small affair, the
madam informed the mayor, was none OF
his business and she was able to navigate
her own small, little craft, without advice
from the outside. Her remarks to the
mayor excited much inefrimeht and were
Heartily enjoyed at his expense. Suisse
duently she liquidated her fine and MADE
preparations to enter suit in the district
court against Halbrook for bigamy, who, IL
seems. has wife in East Dallas and two
children She alleges that he was
married to her in Hillsboro, Hill county IN
1869, and that one child, a boy OF about IL
wears of age, was born unto them. II seems
that both the madam and Mr.. Holbrook
rejoice in the possession of the same num-
Ter of partners (two), and just what the
Termination of the suit will disclose has TO
be conjectured. ,s,
In conversation with reporter. the wife
arraigned stated that Holbrook came to her
aud persnaded.her to inveigle his East Dallas
wife to her down town residence, In order
that he might be afforded an opportunity
to leave town. Subsequent developments,
however. are to the effect that it was his
desire to evade her. He mounted the =
o. clock train yesterday afternoon and voy-
? yed westward with his last wife and two
children. The complaining one was at the
Union depot, but it seems that she dldn'
"catch on"

oe al OF the crime for which he was arrested,
and that he was Of the opinion that the
Officers were prompted TO arrest him sim
DIV because BE was stopping at or working

Pumpkins Among Corn.

Although some farmers reject the
long and well-sustained practice of
planting pumpkin seed among the
corn, on the ground that it detracts as
much from the corn product as in the
profits 1t adds to the stock of proven
der, still it is the general method pur-
sued to get crop of pumpkins. Be
sides, from our own experience and OBJ
servation we have had and seen as
good crops of corn with as without
the pumpkins. 1t may appear at first
thought as if the land could not sus-
tain two full crops of anything; but
this is not so in all cases, as in those
where the two crops do not require the
same manurial stimulants, inasmuch aa
portion at least that one will take up
vii not be required by the other OF
course it requires very good land to
raise pumpkins but even in this case,
though an extra crop of manure may
be needed to be applied to the corn
ground where pumpkins are to be plan
ted, there will be saving in the ele-
ment of time, and instead of ones crop
from the land in year, we gather two.
The objection that some make, that the
vines shade the ground while the ground
requires all theheat it can get, is not
well founded, asthe corn itself furnishes
perfect shade without the vines, which
really canadd little more to injure the
crop. tits far more probable that the OBJ
jectors to this double crop who fail in
getting all they want, owe their lack of
success to poor land, or negligent cultiva-
ton, and we suggest that they should
change their system by manuring and
cultivating more, and then wait and

Planting by Signs.

Cabbage seed should be sown when
the sign Is in the head Plant potatoes
in down sign toward the feet Plant
beet and radish seed when the sign is
in the leg, and onions when the sign in
the light of the moon, and peas when
the moon is full. Plant melon and Gu
cumber seed when the sign is in the
arms, but not in the blossom.
Plant corn and SOW wheat in the
light of the moon. Sow clover seed in
down sign.
Make soap in the light of the March
moon. Kill hogs on the increase of
the moon if on the decrease the meat
cooks away. Many say that a light
feed before butchering will prevent
this. There is always frost when the
moon changes with the sign in the
head.
This is called superstition, but that
charge will not refute the arguments of
astrologers. They ask. if the moon has
an influence on inorganic bodies. why
not on organic? If on the tides, why
not not on vegetable growth?
The fact that most vegetables that
grow down should be planted in the
down sign, and those that grow up in
an up sign looks as if the time for plant
ing were made to correspond with the
signs.-Ecchange.

Hints for Husbandmen.
Germantown Telegraph.

Germantown Telegraph
A gentleman told US the other day
that last year he had constantly for sew
eral months green peas upon his table
of his own raising, and that they lost
nothing of their deliciousness. There
is no difficulty in this, if gardeners are
instructed to go steadily on with their
paintings through the season but few
will do it on their own account, as it
adds to their labor. The way, how
ever, to raise the finest quality of peas
is, after the first sowings, toplant them
deep and mulch them, so that the soil
they root In is always cool and moist.
In the careless manner in which peas
are frequently cultivated, they have
very little flavor aud delicacy.
1t is so with raising what is called
the snapshort. They are seldom plant
ed deep enough, and as consequence
have no more flavor than piece of In
dian rubber, and about as tough. But
the beans planted in September, and
in due time are for sale in our markets,
are really delicious in flavor and fairly
melt in the mouth. This is the result
of cool soil, But were these beans
planted three or four inches deep, as
we have more than once suggested,
thu oughout the season, and mulched in
the hottest portion of it, we could have,
as with the peas, these vegetables at
all times up to November in perfec
ton.

The Sequel to a Dream.

cial, whose etrustworthiness is undoubted,
that daughter of the late Harvey
Jewell (who was so we'll and favorably
known in Boston in legal and business
circles, and was brother of the late
Marshall JewelD had recently very
queer aud unusual experience, and one
calculated to make deep impression
upon the strongest mind. Some weeks
ago she had dream in which she dis
tinctly saw an undertaken drive up to
her residence witha hearse. He was
peculiar looking man. His queerly.
shaped nose, which looked as if it had
been broken and was twisted to one
side, gave his countenance an expires.

tion easy and certain. He came direct
ly toward her, and he said Are you
ready?' she suddenly awoke The
dream seemed peculiar ooe, but did
not attract much attention in the house
hold until, few days or week later
it was repeated with exactly the same
characteristics, down to the Are you
ready! and the awakening And now
comes the strangeet part of the story.
Some little time afterward the young
lady was visiting in Cincinnati and
went to an apartment hotel to call upon
friend. She stepped into the elava-
tor with the others, and was startled to
hear Are you ready ?'from the man In
charge. She was still more startled on
looking around and beholdiug the ex-
act picture of the man of the dream,
even to the misshapen nose. 1t made
such an impression upon her mind that
she requested to be let out of the ele-
vator at the first landing. She stepped
out, and the other occupants went out
at the next landing, and the man re-
mained. The elevator machinery gave

down, aud the man was instantly killed.
