TOMATO PREsERNEs.

Cut six lemons in slices and boil until
tender in three pints of water. Then
skim out and put in ten pounds of sugar
and let it boil until the sugar is all dis
solved. Then put in ten pounds of peeled
and sliced tomatoes and boil for one-half
hour. Put back the lemons and boil for
ten or fifteen minutes longer. Put in
jars and cover closely. Partly ripe
tomatoes are better than ripe ones for
these preserves. A little ginger root
boiled with the lemons improves the
flavor

ing at record breaking clip IN a prelim-
mary test OF her machinery, the torpedo
boat destroyer Goldsborough met with an
accident similar to zone which occurred
on February % last, breaking the rocker
shaft on the port engine. Chief Engineer
Bodmar had ordered a full head of steam

been sent for, which viii require about
a month to replaces. The accident will
cost the builders about s., 0O0.

In the march of Improvement there
are none who keep nearer the front
than our old friend and patron, Mike
Dyer. He has just had his saloon re-
papered and otherwise improved, and
when completed the change will make
his place as inviting as his drinks are
tempting. He is not only well supplied
with the very best liquors and cigars,
but is just as full of good nature as he
is of business. He not only knows
how to make friends but how to retain
them, and is always harpy in the belief
that sit is better to laugh than be sigh
ing. r" Mike says he will not be salts
fed until he has the neatest bar between
Knoxville and Lynchburg, and means
just what he says. He has an affable
and competent assistant in Mr.. L. G.
Million, of Cleveland, Tenn, who, al
though he has been here but short
while, has, by his good conduct and
proper attention to business, made
friends of all whom he has met.

Result of the County Primary.

A primary election was held in this
county last Saturday for the offices of
representative in the legislature, sheriff
and trustee, A light vote was cast pre-
sumNbly for the reason that the farm
ers are all busy at this season of the
year, The election was conducted in a
quiet and orderly manner and resulted
in the selection Of good men-men who
can be elected next fall if the republi-
cans will do their duty at the polls.
In all but five of the districts justices
OF the peace were nominated. The five
districts will, we suppose, hold special
elections at some future time.
The following table gives the vote by
districts:
