The positions occupied by the several clubs are
not changed from those of week ago. The Provi-
dence and Boston clubs have gone through the
week without defeat, and the former has thus
been enabled to continue her grip for the first place.
The two clubs are making very pretty race by
themselves, while the Buffslos and New Yorks are
having neck and neck struggle for the third posi-
ton. The former had very narrow escape from
dropping to fourth place last week, but her victory
of Saturday gives them longer lease to that posi-
ton. The Philadelphias are gradually crawling up
the Clevelands, while Detroit stands unmolested
at the end. The situation to-date is as follows

On Monday last, by invitation
of our old and esteemed friend,
Uncle Nat Moore, we visited the
celebrated Billy Gill mine, and
found. as has already been herald
ed by the LEADER, that the half
has never been told. To use an
English expression, it is immense.
After taking a good look at the
mine, we took il the mill, where
we found Messrs Fletcher and Gill,
both men in every sense of the
word. Nj. Fletcher did not seem
inclined to talk much, but said to
me that when they had their clean
up. which will be in April, we will
astonish you folks. 1t looks that
way to us.
On Tuesday we had a very heavy
rain, and with it Capt. Thos. Brani
gan, Chief of Indian Police. South
Fork, N. M, and to say that he is
a gentleman, does not half tell it.
He says that in all his travels he
has never been better entertained
than while in White Oaks.
Wednesday the first news we
heard was that Messrs Chase &

Jack NJ. Wilson has been hold
ing some ranches near the head
waters of the Penasco, off the south
east corner OF the Mescalero reser-
walton for M. l.. Pierce of Roswell,
and in Wilson's employ was a man
named Tom Valentine. who was
on one OF the ranches. Last week
this ranch was jumped by Nixon
and another man, who broke the
lock OF the door and took posses
sion of the house. When Wilson
returned, about a week ago last
WEDNESDAY, he saw two horses
picketed near the house. and on
riding up 10 see who was there, Il
shot was fired at him. He fell
back without returning the shot.
but next morning Wilson and Val
entine secretly approached the
house to see who the parties were,
and have a consultation with them.
They saw the two horses still pick
eted there, when Tom suddenly
to Wilson look out, Jack /!

now! AT the same moment Il
shot was fired, which went over
the head OF Wilson, who was
STOPPING, and struck Valentine
between the eyes, killing hiln in
stantly.
The Jumpers gave themselves mp
to the constable, and q coroner's
jury was ilnpaneled, whose verdict
was that the prisoners be held for
trial. At the preliminary trial be
fore the Justice OF the Peace, the
same Jury was selected. and strange
to say, after again hearing the eyi-
dence, the prisoners was discharged
by them on the plea of self-de-

TIE Congregational church has
from the outset desired the services
Of a settled pastor. Efforts were
made to obtain one from abroad,
but without success, and the con-
tinued growth of prosperity of the
church demanded a settlement. 1t
has MT, OF course, been at any
time forgotten that MI. j. E. Sigh
was for years a settled minister of
the gospel i'll the south, nor has
the extent and value Of his services
to the new church, been allowed
to pass without remarks Last
week the church united in n call
upon Mr.. Sigh to become their set
tied pastor, and this call after due
consideration he accepted. On
Sunday evening last, the simple in
stallation services of the Congrega.
tional body. completed the nnion
between the church and its pastor.
We congratulate the church upon
the wisdom Of its choice. We be.
lieve that it will be served more eff
ticiently than it could be served by
one entirely a stranger to its mem
bers and the community. The
zeal and ability of the new pastor
will, we believe, be excited t.
the utmost with an eye single tc
the benefit of his people, and 0
all people within the scope of the
church's influence. The Rev
Mr.. Sigh has taken upon himseI
a great work. We know him t,

him. and believe that his success
A in the work will not fall far shol

TAME YOUR CHICKENS.

Not the least important matter for the
tancier to do is to get acquainted with his
chickens, to become intimate with them.
Intimacy will not do in our intercourse with
man every time. but it is quite different with
the lower animals. and with none of them
is it more important than with chickens.
They look to you tor support; you look to
them for profit and pleasure. 70 beg, plead
and preach to farmers about breeding poul-
try tor pleasure is all nonsense. The sue
cesstul farmer has no time to make the bus-
ness Of poultry pleasure alone in the sense
that he speaks OF pleasure. Hence he needs
to manage his chickens in that way that will
bring in the most money, and of course the
pleasure will always be there if the profits.
In no other way can he derive so much profit
from his poultry pens, as by becoming ac-
quainted with them. | hear some persons
say they would like to raise Plymouth Rocks
if they we're only a tame chicken, but they
are so wild TO such | would say, tame
yourselves ard you will find it easy to tame
your chickens. 1t is easier to tame chickens
that are confined to certain yards than those
that have the run of the farm. Feed your
chickens regularly, and do not be in too big
a hurry when you feed them. Notice how
they talk to you. Come and go with me to
feed mine. Here they come. They will not
let us have a word, tor they begin to fly and
talk and jabber as soon as they hear the gate
shut. Now see them! Here comes fine
cock that jumps up into your lap, all the
time talking to you and telling you he il
hungry. You talk back, and to him, no
with loud yelling sho-o-o-o-o, but in gen
tie tone, while this grand old polygamis
looks proudly from his perch down upol
his numerous wives, as if to ask you to feet
them too. But find cannot tell all abou
tanning chickens this time, so l willtry again
soon, when will tell YOU how to max
: Plymouth Rocks as tame as Buff Cochin
and how TO make the latter as wild as gui
meas and this fowl last named | believe
could tame after three or four generations

IEhe 0on5ehold,

Beef RoN.-Chop two pounds of lean beef
very fine; chop AID pound IN mortar half
pound of bacon and mix it with the beef.
Season it with pepper and salt, d small nut
meg, the grated rind of lemon, the juice
of quarter of it, heaping teaspoonful of
parsley, minced fine; or it can be seasoned
with an additional teaspoonful of onion; or
if no onion or parsley is at hand, with sum-
mer savory and thyme. Bind all these to-
gether with two eggs, and form them into a
roll; surround the roll with buttered paper,
which tie securely around it; then cover it
with paste made of -four and water; bake
two hours remove the paper and crust;
serve it hot with tomato sauce or brown
gravy. This may be made with raw or un-
der-dressed meat. If the meat is not raw,
but under-dressed, surround the roll with
pie crust ;bake and serve with tomato sauce,
or any of the brown sauces.
Frightening 1EsWare.-For securing tins.
cement (water-lime) is most excellent. Rub
with damp cloth dipped in the cement,
then wash off with soap and water and dry
thoroughly then with dry woolen cloth
| DOllSl Wllil lHG GPul6HI anu ruD OH all au-
herring particles with another cloth. This
method is much more satisfactory than if
ware is merely secured without polishing,
while it is really very little work to one who
knows exactly how to do it, and instead of
running about to hunt up cloths, has them
hung up in convenient place for use.
KrappeJs.-To one quart of flour add three
tablespoonfuls of white sugar and a little
salt, three tablespoontuls of yeast and two
well beaten eggs. Let the dough be well
mixed up with little warm water or milk,
SO that you can mould it thoroughly to-
gether for twenty minutes or more. Then
cut INTO small pieces, mould round like an
apple, open them in the middle and fill up
with raspberry jam, or strawberry preserve,
or stewed apples or peaches. Place the
p. krappels on in to rise very light, and
when double the size that they were first
made, fry them in hot lard like doughnpts,
and sprinkle over them when hot white su-
q gar with ground cinnamon mixed together
e .Steaoed Cabbage.-Shred two small cab
S bages, eoarser than for cold slaw parboi
q them with a small piece of red pepper added
