It turns the the portion of polished 2ast iron to which it is applied to a bronze black, and when touched over with shellac varnish will ab sorb a sufficient amount, of the varnish to preserve it. To many lem

It pays to thin the fruit on overhurdcued tries. It requires patience to do this, but takes no mote lime than it would to pick the ripe fruit and what is left on the tree will be enough bolter to make it an object to attend to it. If. any of our public school teachers should ask the question, "When d d the war for the Union close?" There would be a general raising of hands and the answei would undoubtedly he, "In th spring of I860." No answer more definite could be given. It is safe to say that none of them would postpone the termina.iion until tne next summer.

The Morion's Business

deneral Passenger Agent Prank Read Talks Very Hopefully. Frank Reed, general passenger agent of the new Monon, was in the city yesterday. He visited the looal Railroad officials. Mr. Reed is especially pleased at the business being done by the Monon out of this city. He is confident that the fall business will be fullv eoual to fu i u,: c and summer, which has been the heaviest the road has known in years. Snpakincr crpnrallv nf affaifsMr Reed . . . . , iiii.es wumu ue geueraiiy mamtamea, notwithstanding there were occasional slight fluctuations on account of excursion business. He thinks that in the future, before rates are made for the big excursions, that additional authority will be given by terminal lines and all in all the tickets surrounded with greater safeguards to prevent rate manipulations. Asked as to the prospect of forming the Western passenger associaation, Mr. Reed said he thought that the roads would be able to reach an agreement before long where the association would be a possibility. and the formation meant a strict order in Jiving to tariffs. Sentinel. MIDNIGHT DUEL. Slashed To Pieces The Resul oi a Drunken Brawl. Stinesville Excited Over Bloody Affray. Stinesville is greatly excited over a bloody miduight duel, whose ori gin can be traced to King alcohol. Thursday night or early yester day morning David Cullcross and William Deck became involved in a controversy that will likely result in the death of Deck. The men had been drinking considerable during the day and night and after the saloons were closed they sauntered off with a crowd, and when only a short distance from the saloon began quarreling. They both possessed very large knives of the bowie fashion and without much-a-do pulled them forth and began the task of cutting one another to pieces. After they had made a few slash es in the air they clutched and went to cutting in dead earnest. Deck cut Cullcross about the head and neck, and that gentleman returned the compliment by slashing Deck in the abdomen until the intestines were exposed. The wounds re ceived by Deck is likely to prove fatal and Cullcross is also danger ousfy cut. Deck is employed by the com pany who are building the Monon railway bridge near Stinesville, and Cullcross is a resident of Stinesville and is employed in a stone mill. The wounds of both the parties were dressed by Dr. Stansifer. Prosecutor Edmondson was tele graphed for and went up on the noon train to make an investiga gation. Quite a large delegation came down from Stinesville to attend the K. of P. Lodge last night. There will be no services at the Walnut street church tomorrow owing to the repairs that are being made.
