Rcnnmnnt Oil PrntIncts

During the past week, Mr.. +. p.
Steiner, of New Orleans, has been con-
Quoting at II. +. Scherck's store, a
number of experiments with Beaumont
oil. One Of these is a process whereby
the crude oil, as it comes out of the
Beaumont wells. is compressed into
bricks for fuel. IL is manufactured by
process known only to the inventor
and contains 81 per cent. of oil, and
can be used in any ordinary CRATE or
furnace just as coal is used, and at
about one third the cost of coal. There
is no smoke or ashes, and the heat OBJ
tanned is much greater than from coal.
There is no danger of combustion. as
is the case in using oil as fuel, as this
danger is entirely obviated. \ patent
has been applied for, and when obtain
ed the production will doubtless be
placed on the market Mr.. Scherck is
interested with Mr.. Steiner, in the pat
ent, as he also is in a big oil gusher
lately brought in on Spindle Top, at
Beaumont, so Brookhaven may yet
have an oil king all her own.
Other experiments conducted by Mr..
Steiner we're the converting of the
crude Beaumont oil into gasoline, ker-
osene, vaseline, paraffine, lubricating
oil, etc, some eight or ten different
products being turned out in all by
means of skillfully manipulated dis
tilling and reducing process.

BRooKHAvEN's corroN RECEIPTS,
5,6oe Bales Ahead of the Corresponding
Date Of Last Year.

Brookhaven's cotton receipts by
wagon for the month of November
footed up 5,I27 bales. The receipts
for November last year we're 4,614. a
difference in favor of this season of Sla
bales.
The total receipts at Brookhaven by
wagon from September |, to December
|, foot up IL $50 bales, against II, Tie
for the corresponding period last year
As the yield of cotton this year is not
believed to be much, if any greater
than last year, this speaks volumes for
Brookhaven's increasing popularity as
a cotton market and trading point for
the surrounding territory, though il
may mean that less cotton has been
held back for higher prices, than was
the case last year.
The staple is bringing from 80 to
I6O in Brookhaven today.

On Tuesday night, November 26, as
the clock tolled the lonely hours of
midnight, the Angel of Death visited
the home of Mr.. Thomas Vaughn and
stole from its midst loving wife and
a kind mother. Mrs. Vaughn was
formerly known to Brookhaven friends
as Miss Annie Dunn, and was daugh-
ter of Mr. Samuel Dunn, of Hartman
She was an obedient child, an affec-
tionate wife and a devoted mother and
has been member of the Mount Mo
riah Baptist Church for several years
During these years she has lived and
led a Christian life, her last days
being her happiest. While we miss
dear Annie in our homes and hearts
there is great Comforter whispering:
"She has sown the see of Christian life.
And her harvest time has come;
And while we are struggling to win the strife.
She is resting in peace At Home.
She leaves a husband, with two babes
a father and mother, two sisters and
six brothers, together with a host OF
friends, to mourn her loss.
May God bless these loved ones and
teach them to realize Annie is not dead
but lives forever.

Foreign Missionary society Enter,a,ns.

The Woman's Foreign Missionary
Society of the Methodist church very
successfully and entertainingly carried
out an interesting program last Sab
bath night, at which time they held an
anniversary celebration in their church
house. Much of consecrated talent
was represented in the personnel of
the program. Mrs. Bessie Lipscombe
made an able and winning address:
Miss Virgie Marshall read an excellent
paper that had been carefully prepared
by Miss Addie Marshall: Miss Jessie
McNair gave recitation and Mrs.
Watkins charmed all with an appro-
pirate reading. Miss Albert sweetly
rendered a vocal solo. gratifying
sum was realized from the collection
TAKEN and all things, except the
weather, seemed to conspire to make
the evening a success. So great was
the interest in the occasion, however
that large audience attended regard
less of the threatening clouds and later
patter of raindrops. Some one sug
gests that the ladies hold such meet
