I KLUSTER OF BULLS EYE SHOTS About the largest purple-top turnip I have ever seen grown in this aection was shown me by Mr John Miller. It tipped the beam at eight pounds and when cut proved 4o be as firm and sweet as the best of its variety. The turnip was raia ■ «d by Mr. Minhinnetton his Cave Spring plantation. I understand hat Mr. Minhinnett has about 30 > bushels of turnips and the same number of bushels of very large yams, raised on two acres of land Think of that, oh ye “Cottontots’ —while ye evade the guano man. I am reliably informed that th* Rev. Wesley Stinson, Clarissa Burwell and Lucy Burwell, all •olored and witnesses ia the Bal lew (eases, have packed their dunnage and skipped for Califoraia.

What i* th* chief charaoteristic of a born lawyer? Some p«opl* fancy that it is audcity; but audasi ty has. perhaps, spoiled a lawyer'* success a* often a* it has made it. Craftinets. another qua'ity often attribute to lawyer* a* a class, is as likely to get them into trouble as it is to win them cases. Thermal master-quality of a good lawyer, according to many moders authorities, i* a genius for details —an ability to see through a case to the uttrrmoat particular, and keep evvrything in mind*, ready foru*eatthe right moment. The following story has probably been told by more th in one lawyer to illustrate this fact: A lawyer advertised for a clerk. The next morning his office was crowded with applicants—all bright, and many suitable. He bade tnem wait until all should arrive, and then ranged them in a row and said he would tell them a story, note their com ments, aniT so judge whom he would choose. A certain farmer, began the law yer, was troubled with a red squir rel that got in through a hole in his barn and stole his seed-corn. He resolved to kill the squirr*! at the first opportunity. Seeing him go in at the hole one noon, he took his shot-gun and fired away. The first shot set the barn on fire. Did the barn bum? said one of the hoys. The lawyer without answer con tinued: And seeing the barn on fire, the farmer seized a pail of wa ter and ran to put it out. Did he put it out? asked anoth er. A? he passedjin-ide the door sku' to and the barn was soon in flam re W hen the hired girl rushed out with more wafer— Did they all burn up? said an other boy. The lawyer went on without an swer, then the old lady came out, and all was noise and confusion, and everybody was trying to put the fire out. Did anyone burn up? said an other. The lawyer said : There that will do; you have all shown great in terest in the story. But observing one little bright eyed fellow in deep silence, he said : Now, my little man, what have you to say? The little fellow blashed, grew unea«y, and stammered out, “I want to know what became of that squirrel; that’s what I want to know.” You’ll do eaid the lawyer; vou are my man . You have not }be» n switched off by a confusion and a I am burning and the hired girl* and waterpail*. You have kept your eye on the squirrel. The Grain Habit. Billy, what became of these sam ples?

A BAYOU TRAGEDY. As we sat on the depot platform -in 4he-*vening, ■ making and talk ing and slapping at ths mosquito** which came out of th* iwamp op posit* in a perfect cloud, the old man with th* clay pipe and rabbit skin cap took advantage of a pau*e in th* convernation to *ay: “Talkin’ ’bout sk**t*r*, but you otter live down on a Mississippi Riv*r bayou to know what ’i>ko*t ers is You’ve lived there? queried one of the erewd. I've livd thar, and it was down thar that my humbi* home was oroke up tud 1 wan left desolate by the ’skeeters.

You don't say I Thate That they did, gentlemen and 1 don’t never expect to be happy agin. That was in the sum mer of 1569, when we had a big overflow and skeetsrs was powerful bad. We just had to stay right in the cabin and fight fur our lives. We finally got out o’ whiskey and cornmeal and I was obleeged to go over to Bendersville to git some. I left the ole woman feelin all right and cheerful, but when I cum back she was —she was Wasn't she there? was asked, ash* did not finish. No; she had disappeared I’skeel eis had busted the door open and carri-d her < ff, and from that day to this I hev never . sot eyes on her I" Sure it was the mosquitoes? Os course. What else could it be? Why, she might have gone out »nd been lost in the woods, or fal len into the bayou and been drown ed, or be u n bitten by a snake and died in the swamp Or again, she might have concluded that sbe had bad enough of that eountry and skipped out. Do you think so, stranger? anx iously queried the old man. Why. certainly. Didn’t you look around any? Not a bit. I jest found her gone and thought the ’skeetera had took her, and then I cum away a brok. en-heaited man. Mebbe I was mis taken about it. It was 15 years ago, and do you think it would be any use t) go down and look a rQund for rf f, r now? Not a bit. I thought but. I thought th? best way was to keep right on mournin’ and grievin’ fur her.and ftelin’ that thar’ was no more happiness fur me in this woeful world. Pore old Julia! How you must hev fit and suffered!
