A Head of Glover.

An enthusiast on the subject states
that each head Of clover is composed
OF about sixty distinct flower tubes,
and each of these contains sugar not
to exceed the five hundredth part of
a grain. The proboscis of the honey
bee must therefore be inserted into
300 clover tubes before one grain Of
sugar can be obtained. There are
1000 grains in a pound, and as
honey contains three-fourths Of its
weight of dry sugar, each pound of
clover honey would represent the in
sertion of its proboscis into over
1900. 600 clover heads.

Dust Test for Firearms

One little Known process to which
small arms manufactured for the
United States are subjected is the
dust test; intended to subject the
piece to the same busting it would
receive if carried by the soldier in a
march across the alkali deserts of
Arizona or Utah, or the sagebrush
prairies Of Montana or Wyoming.
Troops are frequently compelled to
tramp for hours through such clouds
of dust that the heads Of the lead
erS Of SiX-mule team can be but
vaguely seen from the wagon, and
the dust is so fine and penetrating
that the soldiers guns and every
garment soon become coated with it.
The artificial production Of a SINH
lar experience for an arm that might
be adopted for military service is
manifeStly very pertinent trial.
This is accomplished by placing the
rifle on shelf within a closed box
so that the breach mechanism,
which is closed, shall be opposite the
mouth of the bellows; fine sand is
then permitted to fall slowly across
the blast of air. which thereby, in
two minutes, the time of the test
drives the sand into any open joints
or into the depths Of the mcchan-
ism, if it is much exposed. The gun
is then removed and wiped carefully
with the bare hand, also blown into
and cleaned, just as soldier who
suddenly goes into action would do
with gun he has carried on a dusty
march. The piece is then fired
twenty shots. This test is then re-
peatcd. the magazine being charged
before exposing the gun to the dust;
the cartridge and the gun are then
wiped as before, and the gun again
fired twenty rounds. -BOstOn Tran

CORN AND TOBACCO.
What Commissioner Goodwin Says IN
His Monthly Rerort.

Commissioner Goodwin has issued
his crop report for September. Here
Ia what he says about corn and to-
bacco:
"CoRN.--The condition of the corn
crop has steadily declined since June,
as shown by the following figures
June, S6; July, s5.5; August, sd;
September, SOL. The condition for
september, 1891, was sS 6. AS stated
In previous report, early planted
corn and the upland crop is generally
fine, while the late planted and the
low land crop has been injured by
both flood and drouth, and has there
fore been cut short. Insufficient cul-
tivation has also conspired with other
causes to >reduce the yield Of late
corn, and many crops are still not out
of danger from early frost. The chief
damage to the crop Is, naturally, Ia
that part Of East Tennessee where the
drouth has been most severe, many
fields promising not half crop, and
many barren stalks being found. For
the State at large 1t may be said that,
while the yield will be several points
below that OF last year, 1t will still be
fair, and we will have no scarcity Of
corn. The weather has been favorable
for saving fodder, and larger guam
tity than usual has been pulled.
"ToBACCo. THE weather has been
favorable for the maturing and cut
ting Of tobacco, and large portion
OF the crop has been housed In excel-
lent condition. The rains In Mont
gomery, Robertson and Cheaiham
counties have been sufficient for the
late crop, which Is noticeably Inn
proved. The probable yield for the
State is estimated at S6.l per cent. OF
a full crop. which is 2.6 higher than
the estimate for corresponding date Of
last year, and is a very satisfactory
yield.''

KILLED AT A DANCE.
Emmett Johns Kills Chas. Par
sons Near Russellville.
They Were The Best of Friends, Bus+
Whisky Made Them Enemies
The Particulars.

The Russellville Herald contains
this week an account of a murder
committed Saturday at brandance
and barbecue at Red Oak, between
Russellville and Adairville. There
was considerable drinking going on,
and late in the evening Emmett
Johns and Charles Parsons, who
have heretofore been warm friends,
became involved in quarrel. Par
sons drew a knife and made for
Johns, who retreated until he came
to one of the posts to which was fas-
tened rope which divided the dan
GERS from the rest of the crowd. He
pulled this up and struck Parsons on
the right side of the head with it.
Parsons dropped as if he were shot.
He was picked up and carried to his
home. Blood ran from his right nos
tril and from his right ear.
The wounded man was unconscious
when he was taken home and never
rallied, dying yesterday morning
from the effects of his wound.

BROKE OPEN A CAR.
VIM. Turner, Of Gallatin, in the
Hands Of the Law.
He is Charged With Stealing Goods
From a Freight Oar at Guthrie
Tuesday Night.

VIM. Turner was arrested by Of
ficers Rollow and Stone last evening,
near the upper Red river bridge on a
charge OF breaking open. a freight car
at Guthrie and ste eiling six pairs OF
shoes and some knives and forks.
The theft was discovered by the
agent at Guthrie, and suspicion point
ed to Turner as being the guilty
party. He left Guthrie, coming In the
direction OF Clarksville. The people
at st. Bethlehem were advised of the
theft, but the notice came shortly
after Turner had passed that place,
having passed himself off as a peddler
and sold some Of his goods there.
The police were notified by telephone
from st. Bethlehem, and the officers
mentioned above went out and met
Turner, making the arrest as stated.
Chief Stafford carried the prisoner
to Guthrie and turned him over to
the officers there. They have a
strong case against him, and locked
him up as soon as they received him.
Some time after Turner had been put
in the lookup at Guthrie a tramp
was arrested and carried to the same
cell In which Turner was incarcerat-
ed. On reaching the cell the off ers
found that Turner had set his bed
on fire and was about to
burn his way out. His scheme, how
ever, was frustrated by the officers.
Turner says his home Is near Gala.
tin. He denies breaking open the
car, but the proof is positive against
him.

THE EFFECT OF THE MCKINLEY BILL.
The Senatorial Nominee.

The selection of Mike Savage as
the nominee of the Senatorial Con-
vention, report OF which will be
found in another column, was very
wise piece OF work. Mr.. Savage has
grown up among the people who
have. .honored him with this nomina-
ton, by accIamation, and they know
the stuff he is made of. He has been
a Democrat all his life, and truer-
one never lived. He is able and
courageous, and will make canvass
that will insure his election. The
people of Montgomery county have
the greatest confidence In him, and
all Democrats will be rejoiced when
they hear that he has been chosen to
carry their banner. They know it
has been placed in hands that will
never allow 1t to- trail In
the dust, and which will carry it
to glorious victory in November.
Montgomery county recommends
him to.the. Democrats of Robertson
county as man in whom they can
place implicit confidence, and DEM
ocrat who is worthy of theirssupport.
1t is hardly...necessary to add that
Mr.. Savage is a member of the well
known law firm OF Leechs& Savage,
of this city, and that he is.recognized
as one Of the best lawyers in the
State. He will carry with him to the
State Senate acknowledge of law that
few men of his age In the State pos
sess. The LEAF-CHR0NICLE con-
graduates the convention on its
work, and pledges its unqualified
support to the nominee.

PALMYRA POINTERS.
Rev. O. A. Barnes Writes An Interesting
Letter on Various Topics.

Correspondence Leaf Chronicle.I
PALMYRA, Oct. 5.-The meeting
at Reuben Ross closed last Sunday
evening. Four applicants were re.
ceived for baptism. There were
other professions, but they have not
decided what church to join. The
congregation was moved to tears of
joy when Mrs. Mary Russell came
forward to unite with the church. 1t
was an agreeable surprise to every
one present. Bro. Faulkner did US
good service, and if he could have
stayed another week we might have
had quite an ingathering of precious
souls into our church. His labors
will long he remembered by our
people.
Our home was twice taken possess
sion Of last Sunday by the neighbors
and friends of G. M. Lee and Thos.
Harvey, to witness the marriage
ceremony between Mr.. Lee and
Miss Lonnie Townsend, and Mr..
Harvey and Miss Annie Mockbee.
The words were soon spoken that
made two hearts beat as one, follow
ed by the congratulations of friends,
and good music by Mr.. Allbritton,
and then the neighbors dispersed to
their homes, wishing the young peo-
pie much happiness and success in
life.
B. w. Owen and family have gone
to ST. Louis. They will visit the
family of Mr.. James Black while
there.
'Squires Robt. McFall and Sam
Powers paid our city visit to-day.
Squire Powers is one of the proudest
men in all this section. Two fine
girls have taken up their abode with
him, and like Joslin, "they have
come to stay"
Bro. Stamper, the Methodist min.
lister at this place, and his wife are ON
the sick list this week; also Mrs.
Polk Smith, formerly of Clarksville
Mrs. Sid Bowers has quite a sick
child.
The ladies OF the Reuben Ross
congregation will meet at Mr.. J. ID.
Fletcher's next Friday TO make up a
