L. McCollcnigh. He spares no expense in securing Drugs and Chemicals that are acknowledged by the medical faculty t.i be pure. Many failures to cure, that are charged to physicians, arise from the fact that the Drugs they are compelled to use are not pure nr. fault of the physician, as all must admit. "Hence, this true," all should procure their Drugs at a house where the genuine only is bought. S& Burnett's celebrated Flavorings and Fruit Extracts are sold by Henry Kott, the east side Confectioner. These are pure extracts of the Lemon, etc, and arc sttperior preparations for Cakes and Pies.

They ire far superior to tin for preserving Peaches,jNars, Plums, etc. Shoemaker has all style of Jars and having bought an immense stock at low figures, will sell them at a small profit. The "Little Darling" Cigar is a new brand that is now very popular at the Union Drug Sto -e, and smokera would do well to give it a test.

Murder in Salt Creek Township. Robert Clark Murdered wtihin hearing distance of his home. His Head literally chopped off" with his oio7v axe. Two Stabs in the Throat. His fear of Assassination. Who as the Left-Handed Murderer f At about 3 o'clock, on Thursday afternoon, Robert Clark, of Salt Creek Township, living some ten miles cast of Bloomington, left l.ihouse to go to a poi nt a quarter of a mile away, where he was engaged in deadening timber. He carried au axe and a rifle. The sound of his fixe was heard as late as 4 o'clock-, but nothing further was positively known of hiai until the following morning at about 5 o'clock, when one of his daughters, who had started to a neighbor's house to make inquiries for him, found her father lying in the path, nea r where he had been at work, horribly mutilated, and cold in death. There was a deep wound in his throat, evidently made with a knife, the blow struck from behind, and over the right shoulder, a post mortem examination making clear that the knife, after being first thrust into the neck, was almost entirely withdrawn, and forced back, tin blade taking a different direction from the first wound. Two blows had

been struck with the axe, which was found lying on the opposite side of the road, some eight or ten feet away. One blow penetrated the skull nearly four inches, and was made diagonally across the forehead ; the second axe blow was through the base of the skull upward, the two wounds meeting the skull being cut so that a surgeon's probe would pass entirely through the head. Any one of the wounds were sufficient to produce almost instant death. Near the spot upon which the body was lying, stands a small beech tree, which had upward of sixty cuts in its bark, mace lightly, and downward, indicating that the murderer had stopped to tall; with Clark, picked up his axe, and hacked the tree as they conversed r together. The rain of Thursday night had washed off the upper surface of the axe, but the side next the earth was covered with blood.

From the position of the body, it is believed that Clark and l is murderer started toward the former's house, and as soon as Clark's back was turned, the knife was plunged into his neck. From the evidence given before the coroner's jury, by Mrs. Clark, it seems that her husband bad, for some time pa3t, entertained fears of assassination, and invariably carried his rifle with him when he went to work. 1 1 a con-

Weshall not be surprised to see the streets crowded with persons who love to lister to the earpiercing fife and the spirit-stirring drum On Thursday morning last, at about 10 o'clock, an accident occurred in the Smit'ii & Tuley Block, which for a time threatened

to result in the entire destruction of

the fine new buildings en the south side of the square. Capt. J. W. Shoemaker carried the gasoline lamps, which are used in the Union

Drug Store, into the ware-room,

which ii situated south and directly in rear of the main building. While engaged in cleaning and refilling the lamps, ho concluded to light them. Lighting one, lie placed it on the top of a barrel containing alcohol. The lamp hid scarcely been steadied on the barrel, when the Captain noticed a small blue flame directly beneath the lighted lamp, and apparently proceeding from a small aperture in the barrel. Before he had time to blow out the flame or take a thought as to his

best mode of proceedure, the barrel exploded, and he was er veloped by the burning liquid. Fortunately Shoemaker's presence of mind led him to think of a barrel of water at the ware-room door, and dashing out, he jumped into the barrel and crowded down until the water entirely covered his person and extinguished the fire. Am examination soon afterward, revealed the fact that his injuries, although severe, were not dangerous., and with careful treatment he wO again be at his post, in two or three weeks. The burns arc on his arms antl face the burns on his left arm being deep and painful. On the whole, the Captain has reason to congratulate himself that his injuries are no more severe, and that his entire store was not destroyed, as the ware-room contained coal-oil, gasolire, whisky, varnishes and oils, that if ignited, would have insured the destruction of the entire block. Many of the citizens worked heroically to extinguish the fire in the ware-room, and risked their lives with a

knowledge of the inflamable character of the stock in the Drug Store ware-room. This fire also demonstrated the uselcssness of the cistern force pumps, when needed. In the absence of an engine, there is

nothingbetterthan the old fashioned "bucket line," and common wooden

pumps, placed in the public cisterns

would make the water alv.ays avail

able. As it is, the pumps will not

work when their services are need

ed, and it is impossible, during the

excitement incident to an alarm of

fire, to detach the force pumps in

time to use the water advs ntageons-
