the other deputies at the same instant
entering the back door These men
supposed the fighting had begun In

negroes partly concealed by screen
The officers closed in on them aud used
their pistols rs clubs, In u minute the
negroes in the back room had dropped
their guns and fed No sooner had the
negroes In the front room heard the
posse enter fro:n behind than they
lifted shotguns from behind the coun-

TO iRRITATE THE SOIL,

A IIibernian'i Original Plan for oh.
a. u More satisf 'otory crop.
As tho morning sun had finished
tempering the brisk morning mir ono
day last week number OF old resi-
donts assembled around the postotIlcn
awaiting tho distribution Of the first
mail. snys tho Wheatland Four-Cor-
ners. As usual. tho conversation
turned to early days. The naming OF
the Cabbage Patch, situated on the
Spenceville road about eight miles
cast OF here, was discussed. From
the conversation We condenso the fol-
loving: In the early sixties two slaves
who were brought here by Mr. Hollo-
way settled Mt the point now known AS
the Cabbage Patch, and planted out
several acres OF cabbages besides
other vegetables. As their enterprise
was noted with wonder and criticism
by all passers-by the place received
its name In matter -of-course way.
The colored men did fairly well with
their gardening, but for some reason
the ranch changed hands several
times. One OF the latter day owners
was comicsl but whole-souled old
chap, who capped the climax and
made the Cabbage Patch noted by u
fourishing announcement TO his
friends, which as near as could be re-
called was as follows:
I'm going to dig an artificial we'll
and irritate the soil. and I'm most
sure az / can raise enough truck to
consume the whole family. by gosh"
