The Scientific American is the
oldest paper of its character ia the United States, and has maintained

John Dillman, a prosperous farmer whose land joins that owned by Geo. Ketcham, in Clear Creek township, says he killed a hog of his own fatting, several weeks ago, which weighed 460 lbs. nett; and from which he rendered 100 lbs. of lard. This, so far as heard from, is the largest hog Monroe county has produced this season. On Friday last the county
commissioners divided blooming-
ton tp. into two election precincts,
according to an opinion of the At
torney General, secured by D. W. Browning. The line in town is the
alley running north and south, be
tween Waluut st. and the Ave., and
at eleventh street taking the State
road running north for a line. All east of the alley and State road will vote in the Library building. All west will vote in the northwest corner of the court house. Greeves & Son killed their hogs, last week, fifty-four ia number, and the average gross weight was 316 . The hogs were kilU ed for them by the Walker Bros., and so are carefully trimmed and well handled. The people of Monroe county can gat the choicest bams,shoulders and sides at Greeves & Son's grocery establishment thi&
healthier lot of fatted ia this
season, as a nicer,

On Monday of last week, Joe Ryan, of horse-doctoring fame, with two chums, went Jnto Mart. Phillips' restaurant, east of Dunn & Co.s' and called for dinner. After filling up generally with solids they threw in several glasses of cider to keep them down, and Ryan, who seemed to be spokesman of the pic uio party, told Phillips to get his pay if be could. Phillips remonstrated and Ryan became abusive, shaking his clenched first in Phillips' face. At this point an irresistable force came in contact with a moveable body, and Ryan was scientifically whipped in three minutes and two seconds, even unto the gouging of an eye, which lay prone upon his cheek, and which it is believed will be a total loss. Last
Saturday afternoon four or five of j
the Ryan crowd went down to Phillips' place of business, and while one of them called their intended victim to the door, the others were stationed near for action. One of tbe ' party struck Phillips as he came to the door, and all four were pouuding him whenever they could find a place to strike. Phillips knocked one of them down, placed hii foot on him and was rapidly whipping another, when one of the gang struck him on the back of the head with a stone and a younger Ryan also began to pound him with metal "knucks." It was a cowardly and evidently premeditated at? tack. Phillips' heat was gashed all over, and his face was beaten out of shape, but he declared his willingness to whip them, two at a time, if they would carte bare-handed. The Ryans's live about five miles north of town. Phillips came here from Greene co., about a year ago, and is a quiet, well-behaved man, never touches liquor, and attends strictly to his own business.

WE RISK TO REMARK
That a big holiday trade will be
necessary to reduce the stocks our dealers have bought. That an attractive east 6 th st. girl is counting tbe hours till the fatal day.
That the extreme north end of
Walnut street will soon give forth the odor of orauge blossoms. That the regular attorneys of the Bloomington Bar are the cleverest professional men in the Sta to. That three brass bands are now threatening to devastate our fair city next Spring. That ours is th most conveniently arranged postoffice that can be found in any town of 3,000 inhabitants. That the population of Monroe county will be doubled in less than five years, if we can secure another railroad. That the dressmakers of Bloomington already have all the time spoken for, up to Commencement week in June. That the Bloomington girls (who always did look nice enough to bite) appear mere charming stiil in the slap-up hate, which they know
so well how to wear jauntily.
That the dowdiest of dowdy female jakies, begin to brace up in a month after they coma to Bloomington, and iu less than twelve
months try to outdreas the dressiest.
That, as some people seem to be
so terribly swelled over a few hun
dred dollars' worth of property, the j acquisition of eight or ten thousand dollars would certainly cause them to explode hurst.
That the Bloomington dog exter
minator is neglecting his businesst which accounts for the quantity of
"bark" with which the circumam

night.
REPUBT.ICA3I RAIXY ! The Republicans of Monroe County will have A GR1SD RALLTt in Bloomington, on Satdrday, Novimber 4th, 1882. WM. F. BROWNING, Chairmaa Republican Central Committee. JOS. G. Mel'H EETEHS, Jr., Scc'y.
Six weeks ago an engineer
corps left Washington, Daviess co., to locate a line for the Indjanapolia & Evansville railroad. They ar
rived in the vicinity of Bloomington on Thursday last, and on Friday evening Mr. Hervcy, President oi the :.'oad, caaie do wu from Ioil aiw yolis to learn ths result aud to ' ufT the cor?. lie wa? not well pleased with the line, te gj-aJe boiii too heavy, he said. The icon were paid off aud relieved from duty till February, we learn. Tho corporation that controls the I. & V. railroad has made propositions to Mr. Hervey of a favorable nature, and the road may run to Worthington, and then on the I. & V. to Indianapolis, We believe the people here are now in a favorable frame of mind for voting on a proposition to aid the Indianapolis & Evansville road, but they of course cannot do so unless they receive a proposition of some nature from those who have authority to make it. A Bloomington township Democratic "slate" is suggested as follows: Auditor R. A. Fulk. Recorder Itobt. Gillmore. Sheriff T. H. Sudbury. Clerk Joha Graham, Treasurer Joseph Payne. Joseph Smith was in the principal cities, last week, engaged in buying Holiday supplies. A ghost would be puzzled to guess what Tobe Smith is going to do with that immense pile of goods. On Saturday last the old brick Seward residence, opposite the Seward foundry, with two lots fronting east on Waluut street, was sold to John F. May, for f 2,500. Holiday goods fill tlm, windows of liberal advertisers. McCalla & Co. deserve special credit for the handsome late style ladies' neok wear, just received by them to-rday from the manufactory at New York, And the huiies are appreciating ithe interest this firm has taken in regard to their neck toilet. Nothing nicer for a Christmas present. A New Restaurant. Henry Benckert, late of Rushville, Ind., has opened a Restaurant, Confectionery and Oyster Bay, in the room just north of Geo, Atkinson's shoe store, west side of the square. He will keep a complete stock of goods in his line, and in addition will supply fresh Bread and Cakss to bis customers daily. Everything new and neat. Call and see him, and you will be sure to find something you want. Wicks is a close buyer in clothing, and gets lots of goods for his money j then, instead of selling at a full profit, he gives the bargaiu in the transaction to tho customer, EiXETTSVirxH people will find that it pays 10 come to the Bee Hive for all manner of dry goods, carpeting clothing, hats and caps.
Sam. Ptnu is expected home from Texas soon. Matt. Btatley was the owner of the old Fariu bouse, that was sold, last week to Prof. VauNuys. Singular to relate, there was no whisky in the Phillips-Ryan war, last week. Will. Dunn, now reading law iu Muncie, Ind., arrived in Bloomington last Friday. Last winter, at this time, ice was nine inches in thickness, and was being cut and stored for summer use. The supreme court lias decided that the sale of cigars on Sunday is a violatigu of the State law, On Friday last the wife of Josiah .Meilet, with her two children, arrived in Bloomington from Muncie, Ind., and is visiting her mother, Mrs. Margaret Dunn. After ten days of May like weather a norwesler rose Saturday night, and snow, sleet and rain descended Sunday morning, as a reminder that this is December.. Tbe wife and two children of Rev. W.P.MeNary returned to their home in Bloomington last week, after an absence of a month in Pennsylvania, among relations. The Circassian Beauty, the
sword swallower, and tbe headless
body, exhibited to large and admir
ing crowds last week. The sword swallower promised to turn himself inside out, just to show that the sword was in his stomach, if a sufficient amount of wealth could be secured as a donation. The generous offer, however, was declined with thanks. In Cincinnati, in the case of Jas. H. Nabb, formerly of Bloomington, Indiana, vs. the Crown Manufacturing Company, to recover $25,000 for injuries sustained by Nabb in falling through a hatchway in the premises of the defendant on New street, east of Broad-j way, on the 12ih of February,! 1880, a nty wore several d:.yaeii-; gaged in hearing the testimony be- j fve Jmige Ft-roe. The injuries j
alleged to have i. ;ajliHifJ yvv Nabb were concussion of the braia and injury t o the spinal marrow, resulting ultimately m curvature of the spine. The principal questions raised by the defense was whether the defendant was liable by reason of negligence. The jury brought in a verdict for the company. 'The passeDger coaches of the Louisville, New Albany and Chicago railroad have each been provided with sledge hammer, saw and ax, which are conspicuously placed, with the ominous notice posted near by, "Hands oft not to be need except in case of accident."

Evury eae knows that tbe liU tlo loops and curia of hair -which ; lie flatly down against the iorehetut of the girl of ou:r specie do nit thus maintain themselves naturally, and nearly every one who has had the curiosity to ask about it knows now thiit the gum of the quince eed is employed to make these curls "stay pui." The quince sew! gum han peculiar properties i vUfcU make it suitable above ever f other article for this purpose. . It would even holi smoothly down the quills upon tha fretful porcupine. An ounce of quince seed contains aihuminois gum enough for innumerable bangs. Three years or more ago, before the bing had assumed its sway, an ounce of quince seedctmJd be bought for five cents, or a pOiiud, which would supply the requirements of a large ft m iiy of girls f r a year or more, could be bad for forty-five oenta.

As the present whim in hair-dressing became more popular, tbe demand for. quinee seed quickly improved, until at present the stock in the market is almost exhausted Erobably not one hundred pound eing distributed among the drug dealers of New York. Now v ly ten thousand pounds are imported in a year, and the price is from $3.50 to 4 a pound.
