Mb. Etjieor : Our village Seems
to be infested with burglars for
the last tew days. Mr. Edwards’
smoke-house was broken open and
seven or eight hams and two sides
of meat stolen. Mr Keen also
suffered a loss, but When'they
struck the smoke-house of Mr. J.
W. Hodge, they were non-piussed,
or at least we suppose so, from the
fact that after going to all the
trouble of breaking and getting in,
they took nothing at all. They
also broke into the blacksmith
shop of Mr. Hodge, 1 think for
the purpose of obtaining tools for
future operations.
The people around here are feel

of money and more public spirit;

Perry by the buzz of its saw and

Mrs. Chauncey was nearly 36
years old, the eldest daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. N. Marshburne;
She was on a visit to her brother’s
family when taken sick, and Mad
been making preparations for the
celebration of the 20th anniversa

I She was truly a good, woman, a
consistent member of the Baptist
Church. Her death is a sad be 1

and son, while the aged father and
mother; brothers and sister, mourn
for her truly. Hermany friends

he is an able expounder of the

Ves; Mr. Secretary, I read the
papers, especially the Home Jour
nal. I am a member of the M. J
& A..H. Society at Powersville.
Ifi saying “ditto” tp Idyl Wylde,
my authority was from two of its
honorary member?, also from
“Secretary’s” letter in the issue of
Feb. 26. The by-laws of that So
ciety required such a number to
constitute a quorum to hold a bus
iness meeting. At that meeting
the by-laws were amended, lessen
ing the number so as to be able to
hold a meeting. Mr. Secretory, I
think such societies are like
great many people’s religion; it
freezes up in the winter, and when
the lovely spring and summer
comes, it buds aud blootoB, and
flourishes as the green bay tree,
but to fade and die away when the
wiuter winds come again. Many
thanks for the invitation to come
down next Saturday and partake
of and enjoy the hospitality of my
friend, and be at his meeting.
But our church meeting,embracing
the same day, will prevent my at-
attending;
I see, Mr. Editor,’ you propose
ere long to visit the different en
terprises in HoiistoB county.
Doubtless your many readers will
be delighted to have ah article

Well, Mr. Editor, I see a letter
from Mr. J. T. Walker asking the
commissioners divers questions.
Now, if those questions cannot be
satisfactorily answered, the sequel
is the commissioners are in de
fault of having done their duty.

large crowd was oat to hear him
on Sunday.
In my next, if not asking too
much of you, I propose to give
you and your many readers a
sketch of the fruit enterprise
around Powersville. I won’t eall
it a boom, though everything and
everywhere is getting on a boom.
Mr. Jerry Willis, of Bibb coun
ty, was the guest of Mr; J. EL M.

He was highly pleased with the

Mr. H. S. Feagin killed a fine
wild turkey gobbler last Saturday
evening,which weight 2l pounds.
Henry appeared hippy the next
day over his good luck.
Mr. J. N. Barker is having some
very bad luck (if there is such a
thing), as he has lost three good
mules within the past fodf months.
They were,sick with some disease
like glanders, and broke out in
sores and boils, and also run at the
nostrils. He has another one-now
sick with the same 1 disease.
The health .of our community
is getting better, as the measles are
not raging as they were when I last
wrote.
Mr. B. Holletnim has been con
fined to his room for several days
with' a sore toe, or toes. It seems
that he had a corn on one of his
toes, and undertook to burn it out
with carbolic acid. His foot in
flamed from the burning, and he
has suffered immensely on account
of it. He had a very bad scare
last Thursday night, which made
him get out of his house. Mr.
Robeson ivas ifi his room reading,
and hearing something roaring,
went out and discovered the chim
ney in a blaze of fire. It was sobn
extinguished, the greatest damage
being the fright Mr. Hollefuan
suffered.
Mr. Editor,'I herewith give you
for publication a eaieiidar that will
last as long as time lasts. It can*
be used to find the day of the week
of the date of any month in any
year, for any length of time, both
backward and forward:

For the year 1885 you will add
“ “ “ 1886 “ “
sc a st 2887 tc {t
“ “ “ 1888 “ _ “ “ 3-4
Now, to find the day of the week
that the date of a month comes on,
in a given year, add the numbers
at the light of the month and year,
respectively, with the number of
the date you wish to find, then di
vide by 7, and the remainder is the
day sought for. For example, if
you wish to find the day of the
week on which the 10th of July,
1887, comes, you would say 10 and
3 make 13, and 2 make' 15, and 15
divided by 7 gives a remainder of
1, which would be Sunday, the first
day of the week. It is the remain
der that Counts in this table.
The reason you will find two
different numbers in 1888 is on
account of leap-year. You Would
add 3 uCtil the 28th day of Feb
ruary, and then you will have
to add 4, as there fire 29 days in
that month. So it will be in each
leap-year. Any one learning the
above table will always know what
numbers to add, etc.
T can say that I learned the ta
