Mam's ffwbleat Warf. This is an age of great works find wonderful inventions. Steam, electricity, water, air, all are made to serve man, but unquestionably the greatest inventions are -those whach preserve mans health and prolong hk life, and among the greatest of these is Da.

The biggeat boom in Bloomington st the present time is at the Fancy Bazar, on the south side of the square. . It surprises every one who for the first time sees Tobc Smith's immense and varied stock. Lverything is beautiful, rich and and rare in design. Call and feast your eyes on the display. It will be found interesting at present to go into the watch and clock hospital conducted by John G. Voss, in landley'i Drug Store, and note the number and variety of watches that are brought there for surgical treatment. Voss is a thorough artist in this regard, and can give more satisfaction, he verily believes, than any other man in the business. Not only does he repair and regulate watches, but he sells some of the best grades that are brought to this place. A neat and choice stock of fine jewelry kept always on hand, and orders taken for silverware at the lowest living rates. Ask for John C. Voss, the jeweler. m hi m Physicians very often prescribe, at this time of year, medicines that have for their basis pure brandy or whisky. If the patient gets impure spirits those made poisonous by dishonest city rectifiers the effect is very harmful. A reputation for securing and selling only pure and unadulterated liquors, is worth something to a man. Such a reputation August Kreuger has earned by many years of experience, and persons who require whisky or brandy tor medicinal purposes, may rest assured that when tbey buy it of Kreuger, they get it as it comes from the distillery, without any doctoring, The-best of anything is none too good for the people, and while they are buying they should get the best it is cheapest.

For Thirty Year. For thirty years Wistar'a Balsam of Wild Cherry haa been kept for sale by druggists generally, and in all that time there has not been a single complaint made, but on the contrary the dmggirts and the people acknowledge it to be the best remedy for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, and all lung diseases. A Queer Notion.' Many peaple think it cheaper to buy 25 cent sizes of proprietary snedicine. But tbey make a mistake. For instance. Dr. Wistar'a Balsam of Wild Cherry -contains about eight times the quantity -of ordinary cough balsams. Beeid it tastes a less quantity of Wis tar's Balsam to cure a cold. A single dose ia often sufficient. For deep seated colds and Consumption it baa proven itself to be the best and quickest cure ever discovered. Now is the Time Don't wait till you

A number of our farmers contemplate removing to Texas next Spring. Quite a colony is being organized near Allen's Creek, Polk township, to go to a better climate. Wm. Shields and Wilson Clark, of Clear Creek township, are also busy posting themselves on railroad routes and price of land in Texas. A weather-beaten man drove a transparent team of horses, pulling an antiquated wagon well laden with children, through the place, one day last week, on his return from Texas. He originally emigrated from a malarious point on Salt Creek, in Brown county. He hadn't enjoyed a good old-fashioned wrestle with the "shakin' ager," during his sojourn in Texas, and his heart, but more particularly his liver, yearned for the jaundicy days of the long ago. The idea of a man going front Texas to Brown county in the dead of winter ! He said he was a Democrat-Greenbaeker. Arnet Owens, now a member of the Indiana Senate from Warren and Fountain counties, was prostrated with hemorrhage of the lungs one day last week. Arnet Owens was carrier boy for the Republican, some fifteen years ago. He is a young man of extraordinary ability and an eloquent orator. The physicians who have patients on the creeks in the lower part of the county, particularly Drs.Lowder and McLahlan of Harrodsburg, are riding night and day. A great deal of sickness is reported in malarious districts. On Wednesday last the two houses of the Indiana Legislature met in joint convention and elected Gen. Ben. Harrison United States Senator. The vote stood : Harrison, 81; Gray, 62, DeLa Matyr,2. Five were absent ; three Democrats, one Republican (sick), and one Greenbacker, It will be remembered that the tree tops in the court house yard had grown so high tbat when in full leaf, last summer, it was very difficult to see the face of the town clock. The present would be a favorable time to trim these trees, and if, in the trimming, some of those scraggy locust3 should be killed, no one will mourn. A Mrs. Brown who resides near White Hall, lost a pocket book, some two months ago, and suspicion fell upon persons who were thought to have been iu luck. Recently she found the money in her woodhouse, where she had evidently dropped it, the saw dust and chips having covered it. Charley Pering formerly of this place, and for some time past a jeweler at Worthington, is now Deputy Postmaster at that town. A number of new bridges have been built in Monroe county during the past two years. These, like all public improvements, are worth to the people all they pay for them. Lieut. Frank Voss of the 18th Indiana, is lying sick at the resiidence of his brother, Benj. Voss of this place. He was a member of Co. H. A number of persons are sick in EHettsville and vicinity, among

them Buck Moore, a daughter of J. K. Phipps, Mrs. Bart. Ellett, and Mr. Wharton. About the 1st of February a special committee from the Legislature will visit the University, and inspect its workings. They will make a favorable report, as everything is running smoothly and successfully. A good winter to haul logs to mill. The weather clerk seems determined too, that we shall have more of the same kind of weather. O. H. Fletcher of Ellettsvilte, has sold bis property and contemplates removing to Martinsville. Patent right men are " thicker'n fiddlers in Heltonsville," at preseut. Be sure you areright before you go into the patent right business, and then don't do it. Thomas Hash is a bully boy out in the eastern edge of Salt Creek township, and for several years an indictment for carrying concealed weapons has been standing against him, but he has avoided arrest. Sunday a week Deputies Strong and Reeves went to the neighborhood and found Hash at church; he showed fight, and declared he could not be taken, but the officers placed the bracelets on his wrists and landed him in Castle Grimes. Iu the parley which occurred preceding the arrest, Hash swore like a pirate (in church) and

his mother interfered, whacking Strong with her clinched fist. It would be a good joke on some of those people if they were compelled to answer for their interference.

Burdette had an overflowing house, Tuesday evening of last week, to hear him lecture. He was afterward entertained by the Phi Kappa Si, college society, at the residence of B. F. Adams. If the people will give Villa as large an audience they will exhibit a proper appreciation of a worthy performance. Henry Birch, a citteen of Indian Creek township,- vvas in town last week, and gave tjitite au interesting talk to some of his acquaintances. He is 68 years old, has lived in the county 62 years, and has never been on a railroad car. He declares himself opposed to schools, because he believes that men are made bad by education. He is a life-long Democrat. Robert Gamble, the popular "Bee Hive" grocer, has been in Danville, N. Y., during the past three weeks, on a visit to Mrs. G. and relatives. The boys in "the store have prepared a series of answers to questions with reference to Bob's absence, and have them displayed on a card so that time may be saved in answering questions. William Farmer, son of Eli P. Farmer, came to Bloomington last Wednesday night after medicine for his father. While returning, his horse slipped and fell near the Tarkington property,, at the western edge of the city. Farmer was thrown upon the ice with great violence and was dragged some distance. He succeeded in reaching town where examination disclosed that one of his shoulders bad been dislocated by the fall. The dislocation was reduced by physicians, and Farmer is gettiug along as comfortably as could be expected under the circumstances. Frank Williams, for a number of years foreman in Ryors & Bollenbacher's spoke factory, was tightening a nut on a squaring machine, last Thursday, and the wrench slipped off, throwing his right hand into the knives. A cut was made across the back of his hand near the wrist, then the revolving knives seemed to run under and cut the flesh loose down to the knuckles, throwing a great flap over. The wound was promptly dressed by competent physicians, and it is believed that the bones and leaders are not injured, Very few people in Bloomington realize the wonderful strides manufacturing establishments are taking in this place. The spoke factory is running night and day ; the plow factory is working all the hands that" can be crowded into their buildings, while at the bedstead factory of Showers Bros, the business has been trebled in the last twelve months. These enterprises grow so gradually that people residing in the town do not realize the change that is taking place. Snow begun falling again, on Saturday morning, on a solid bed of ice, with the thermometer at 20 above zero. Snow has fallen every week during the past three months, in this locality. Dunn &Co. lost about 1200 bushels of potatoes by freezing during the 18 below zero weather. They represented just that many dollars in the retail market. Wylie Woodburn, who learned the art preservative in the Progress office, has purchased a half interest in the Wilmar (Minn.) Press. Flint. Tenant, formerly of this place, has established the Herald at Cloverdale, this State. Lyman Naugle, formerly of EHettsville, later of Cloverdale, has established the Republican at Greeucastle. Thursday was an exhilarating day full of bounce and beauty, mud, rain and slush, .-A protracted meeting has been begun in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Harrodsburg, this county, Rev. Hadlock, Pastor. Stallions have become scarce in Monroe county, and while very good prices are being paid for horses the supply is far from equal to the demand. Charley Moore of EHettsville has just purchased a fine stallion, and many farmers of this county ought to follow his example. Congress is pounding away at the funding bill, and it is expected that they will pass a 3 per cent, short-time bond bill. In Cincinnati and some other large cities, taxes are three per cent., so that it is hardly possible that such bonds will meet with ready sale in highlytaxed localities. Recorder Gilmore secured an order from the county commissioners, last week, to have a copy of the county papers procured for a file. The Statute reqnires this and it is done in other counties, even in Brown, so that attorneys and others, in search of legal publications can find them in the proper office. Mr. Gilmore is the first Recorder to secure this much needed action on the part of the Board. Bishop Littlejohn, of Cambridge, England, is said to be quite a popular preacher, though in this country Bishop Demijohn can lay over any preacher we know in point of popularity. Occasionally the gummed direction tftjEf gets rubbed off of the Progress and tbe subscriber fulls to get hia paper. When thin occurs call promptly at the office before tbe extra copies are exhausted. Oysters cost eighty cents per

dozen in England. It is no wonder that religion makes but little progress iu that benighted country, A church sociable is out of the qucs-

; tion with oysters at that figure.

John W. Buskirk's Mil to reduce the rate of interest to six per cent, is being vigorously pushed by that gentleman. The brilliant liar of the Terre Haute Express says : "It was so cold yesterday morning that smoke in tali stacks froze and fell back in solid lumps of coal, only to again be burned and again fall back. It was a great saving to fuel consumer3,but continued only a few short hours." The Mendelssohn Society celebrated its sixth anniversary, on Thursday night last, at their Hall. After music, toasts, speeches and supper, the President, Hod, Wra.B. Seward, upon the part of the Society, presented to the Directress, Mrs.Taylor, a very handsome silver cake basket,and an elegantly bound album. The album contains the

photographs of all the members of

Mendelssohn Society. Inese reunions are fully appreciated by the members and invited guests. Remember that next Friday will be the last day upon which a suit may be begun before term time of circuit court. Get ready. Many wagon loads of sugar buckets were hauled out of town by farmers, last week, in anticipation of a good run of sap. Dunn & Co. alone, sold 500 buckets, Saturday, Francis W.Ketcham,of Smithville,vwho left this county eleven years ago and was presumed to be dead, and indeed was so declared in law, his estate having been administered upon, arrived here a week or so ago. He says, he is a citizen of Missouri. Matthew McPhetridge made a quick trip to Florida. He left here on Jan. 10th, and returned last Friday, 21st, having consumed but 11 days in his visit. He remained 3 days in Waldo, Fla., and then concluded to return to Indiana. The day after his return, (Saturday) he purchased 27 acres of ground adjoining the farm he recently sold, and kuown as the Ad. Hemphill land, paying therefor $1,000 cash. Capt. Shoemaker, and his prescriptionist, Faris, are both suffering with severe colds Shoemaker was cenfined to bed a portion of last week. Kahn & Tanenbaum have sold over seven hundred overcoats this winter. Every one of these coats was warranted to fit like paper on the wall. If the young men would devote as munh time to getting up a String Band as they do to working up the brass, there might be some money in it. A string band could secure frequent employment. Grady, the veteran circus man, is here with a hall show. .Last night, at Mendelssohn Hall, he gave away, in the form of a gift distribution, a number of useful articles, such as brooms, flour, corn meal, coffee, queens ware, etc. There was a large audience, and the merriment produced by persons going up after their various gifts was immense. Grady will give away many useful articles to-night. The 600 exemption act does not reach back, as some persons imagine (see sec.15) and cover all former indebtedness. There is no emergency clause, and the acts were not distributed till late in the summer of 1879. The colored man and brother is rapidly superseding his white competitor as a section hand on the L.N. A. & C. railroad. All the section hands on the south end of the road will soon be colored men, at the ratio they are now being employed. The railroad men say they are not only reliable, but efficient1 railroaders. It is now in order for Senator Voorhees to ask for an investigation. When Mr. Hervey returns from Europe, whither he has gone to negotiate a loan for the building of his road from Evansville to Indianapolis, it is believed that be will make a proposition for running that railroad through this county. It remains to be seen if our people will theu settle down in their old fogy boots and let the last opportunity pass by. The majority of the present Board of Commissioners are Democrats, but they are inclined to be progressive and up with the times, and if three or four old hard shells would leave these men to consult their own sense of right, there would be no difficulty about securing favorable action for road buildiug at their hands. The trouble with the majority of county commissioners is that they are always looking forward to some better office, and are often afraid to vote a tax for some needed improvement for fear that it may endanger their chances. No man who has held the office of commissioner in Monroe county has ever been elected to a higher office they have been too much afraid, perhaps, to put themselves on record as progressive men. We do not believe that either Dr. Walker or John Huntington are office seekers in the common acception of the term, and have faith in their judgment should a proposition to build railroads come before them for decision. During the first four weeks of sleighing every imaginable vehicle was pressed into service, but people seem to have been surfeited with this class of fun, and the 6leighiug has been reduced to mere business transactions the hauliug of wood, staves, ties, etc. A quantity of goods levied upon by the county Treasurer several years ago, for Thomas Mulli-

I kin's taxes, were sold by auction on

i Saturday,.

Solid batter and fresh bcf be assured next summer, as our butchers afifd grocers have supplied themselves with an abundance of ice. A literary curiosity, in the shape of a boufld volume of almanacs, eleven in number, in as many different languages, has been issued for distribution among the editorial fraternity by Ayer & Co of Lowell, Mass. It is a curiosity in its way, and worthy the reliable and prompt paying firm that conceived it. John E. East was over in Brown county last week, making legal arguments and temperance speeches. Representative Buskirk came home Saturday. He is looking well. After Dr. McPheeters had reduced the dislocation in Wm. Farmer's shoulder they got into the Docter's sleigh and started for Mr. Farmer's home in the country. On the way the sleigh was overturned and both Doctor and patient were thrown out. Then when within a mile of Mr, Farmer's home some of the attachments gave way and the horse left the sleigh. Farmer, notwithstanding his bad luck, was in town last Saturday. Yockey, of the Bedford Banner, came up to this city on the 12 M. train and returned on the 4 p.m. train Saturday- He seemed dazed by the bustling activity of city life, but secured the plans for a building like that of Langley's standing against the Mullikin block, and will erect another opera house in Bedford, Corpulent and fleshy men took the middle of the streets last week. Fitzpatrick is moving his saloon and fixtures to Spencer, Ind, Geiger has removed to Bedford, Bloomington sends out other graduates besides those that go from the University, Sprague's Georgia Minstrels aro being billed for a performance in this place. This is the troupe that has the fine brass band was here last May. A brakeman named Ansttn,was caught between the bumpers, while coupling a freight train at the depot, Monday, ana shockingly crushed. Agnes Wallace Villa. Another good audience was in attendance at the Opera-Houso last night to -witness the second appearance of the Wallace Villa troupe in our city. One noticeable feature in the audience was that most of the persons who were in attendance on Tuesday evening were present again last night, and from the comments on all sides the Becond evening was as enjoyable as the first. As "Franlzia," in a "Daughter of the State," Agnes Wallace sustained hor reputation as one of the finest actresses on the American stage in that particular role. Hiss libra Deshou as usual acted her part to perfection, hs did little Lucie Villa. In

rocanonias, oam a. viua was immense and his make up as the gay and fascinating young Indian Queen, was highly artistic and appropriate. Miss Deshon was bright, sparkling and fascinating in her dual characters and captivated the entire portion of the audience. Columbus has not had as good a dramatic troupe here for many years and we sincerly hope they can be induced to come during our fair next fall and stay a week with us.
