MsEIrss,. WINE OF cARDuI for female diseases
rhe washington celebration.

The barbecue and public celebra-
ton at Maj. Vernon's pasture, five
miles this side of Washington Fri
day, was largely attended by people
from the surrounding country and
heartily enjoyed by all. Quite a
number went out from this city,
and from some of them we learn
that the day was most pleasantly
spent. Judge L. Kirk addressed
the assembly reviewing the history
of the "day we celebrate though
they were a day ahead to keep from
conflicting with the other celebra-
tions-and expatiated upon the con-
stltutional amendments to the con-
stitution that are soon to be adopt
ed or rejected by the people of the
State, explaining the result of them
etc. He was followed by Major
Norwood, Of Navasota, and IN the
afternoon J. P. Buchanan, Justice
of Washington precinct, spoke about
the 4th.
The meats were well barbecued
and in great abundance, and alto
gether the celebration was a splen-
did success.

The Concert.

The concert by the o. o. o. socie-
ty Friday night at the Grand Opera
House is deserving of more ex-
tended notice than the reporter had
an opportunity of giving in Satur-
days paper.
The rendition of the peak Sis
tiers" was splendid, in fact the ap-
pearance of fifteen pretty sisters
was an attraction in itself and the
splendid manner in which each one
rendered their part was appreciated
by the audience as shown by the
frequent encores.
The parody on MAUD Muller" by
Miss Lizzie Dryer, as well as the
skirt dance by little Miss Sophia
Cohn we're splendid features. The
''Mulligan Guards" were immense
and the take off on the "Light
Guard Band great. The "rain-
bow drill" was pretty and heartily
enjoyed.
Altogether the concert was a
great success, but the most enjoya-
bic feature by the entire audience
was the topical" song, composed by
the young ladies, which was replete
with local hits, every one OF which
received the heartiest applause.

Friday night some one priced off
the three iron bars across the tran
som at the rear door of Mr.. 81.
Fischer's wholesale and retail gro
Gerry store, and, entering proceeded
to rifle the store of a large and
choice lot of groceries, perhaps to
the extent of full wagon load,
though it can not be determined
Just how much they did take. 1t is
known however, that there was a
large amount of coffee, sugar, -four
liquor, ETC.. stolen. The front door
of the store was unfastened from
tina inside perhaps for the purpose
of beating hasty retreat in case
they were apprehended while doing
the stealing.

Trouble Near CAV Hin.

A Gay Hill special to the BANNER
signed by half a dozen parties,
which is too lengthy for publication
in full, says that there is considerable
excitement il that neighborhood re,
sulting from fight which occr' red
there last Sunday on the Mob de
farm between two colored women,
one using an axe, the other club,
the women with the club getting in
the best ticks, as the woman with
the axe stumbled and fell A man
was the cause of the fight, whose
name is given as Geo. Carcknel, who
whipped boy named johnson uu-
mercifully. about a letter that he
wrote, using a loaded quirt cutting
the blood every lick until the boy
tainted from loss of blood. They
say that he has the boy with his
little brother hid ont now and not
only refuses to tel! where they are,
but threatens to Kill any man that
NEEDLES about them. Ratliff the
grandfather of the boys, who is now
sick, says he will report to the Off
GERS as soon al he cen get up, but
Carcknel, it is said, has loaded his
gun for the old man and threatens
to fill him with buckshot on sight.
The BANNER does not know any of
the parties, hence it does not know
what credence to give the report,
but the communication closes with
an appeal to the officers to come out
and settle the present state of af
fairs.
