dwelling of S. Y. StribIng, situated on
his farm about two miles from town.
was destroyed by fire on Saturday
night, the 18th, ut 1880 o'clock. The
origin of the fire is mystery. The
building was insured in the Oconce
brotherhood and was occupied by Il.
5. Stribling, who was recently married,
and had newly furnished the house.
Nothing was saved except some CLOTH
ing and there was no insurance OH the
furniture, consequently the loss was a
heavy one, there beng also good sum
of money lost with good deal Of solid
silverware. The fire was not discover
cd until the house was falling in and
the occupants barely escaped. There
are no near ncighbors and the house
was i'll ashes before the alarm was
heard. Many friends sympathizc with
the young couple in their loss.

Government Will Push the Improve
meHts at Galveston to Completion.
NEW YORK, Sept. 13.-The corps OF
engineers, comprising the chiefs of dep
uties, met yesterday in the army build
ing ca Whitehall street TO make plans
and arrangements for the repairs to be
made in and about Galveston.
The army department had been max
ing many improvements in Galveston
bay, which were Ia a half finished con-
dition when the hurricane struck and
most Of these were destroyed by the
storm.
Though all the plans and arrange
ments were not completed it was said,
however, that action will be taken ana
that the work will be pushed at once.
The projected improvements will In
clude the connections with Houston.
Houston is located in Buffalo bayou,
which opens into Galveston bay. The
army proposes TO build a channel 100
feet wide and % feet deep through Gal
weston bay from the present ship chan
mel to the the mouth of Buffalo bayou,
where another channel will be dug so
feet wide and III feet deep, up the
bayou to Houston.
The expected cost of this work will be
81, 600, 900, of which sum allowed for the
work $781 1856 has already been expended
in Galveston bay and $40, 100 in the
bayou.
The army department will also give
all possible aid in repairing the bridges
to the main land and the water front,
so that the shipping interests OF the
place will be protected to the fullest
extent.

Best Crop In the Peach Orchard.

What are the best crops that can be
grown in peach orchard without mate
rial injury to the trees?
Ans. Cotton, canteloupes, sweet pota-
toes and peas. 1t is not desirable to plant
corn or any grain crop in an orchard.
Cotton is, perhaps, by far the best crop
to grow in an orchard. 1t practically
insures a good cultivation for the trees
almost throughout the season, just what
they need. No good farmer will fail to
cultivate his cotton crop, but he may
neglect his trees.
When peas are planted in an orchard
they should be planted in drills and
cultivated so that the trees will not
suffer for cultivation. Never sow peas
Broadcast in an orchard and thus pre-
vent cultivation.
These crops may be proftably grown
with the trees only for the first two or
three years. No crop should be grown
in an orchard after the third year.
