Tfce Accident at Bacaa Vista, f hie County,
A SAW BLADE IS A MAs's BOA IN. No narrative, we believe has been published or tho accident at Bollenbachcr'd bnmch fectory by which one oi the iaea lost his life, and the following by a correspondent will be read with interest : The spoke factory was in operation, and all the men at their posts. Mr. John Smith, of Owensburg, watt running the equalizer. He filled the box of ends overt ulJ.when tine of the .jaws struck a block in the box and broke in, five pieces. One of the pieces (about one-third of the saw) struck him in the forebrad, just above the left eye, going
into the skull some four inches, and crashing ths eye. He fell apparently lifeless, without a struggle or groan, the blood Sowing freely from the wound. The hands soon discovered his situation, and the machines were stopped. His two brothers Charley and Robert were present. The scene was a. mid one.. All were excited. While the hand were .giving attention to Mr. iSmith, the steam run up to 160 poontb, whi m was ten pounds more than the boiler was tested at. This tact was fiist discovered by John Woodard, who came to the factory in time to save an explosion. He mentioned tlie matter to Mr. Miller, who amounted the boiler and started the machinery. When the fact was announced that the steam was so high, for a moment all was excitement. JNetrly all left the factory and conceal d themselves behind the spoke ricks. Mr. Miller bad presence of mind and courage enough to 1st off the steam. Mr. Smith was taken to the hoose of James H. Oliphant, where he died on Saturday morning. He lay as if asleep from the time be was hurt

THE LOXO PROMISED THROUGH
TRAINS.
Chicago Tribune: The Chicago
extension o: the Louisville, riew
Albany sod Cbfcago Railroad has
been completed, and the connection with, the Western Indiana made.
The new extension will be opened for both freight and passenger busi
ness an. to. jutensive ana com
modious freight depots haye been erect ed north of Sixteenth street, aear Third avenue, by the Western Indiana, foi the use of this road. The passenger trains will arrive and depart from the depot of the Western Indiana, on Twelfth street, between Third avenue and State street. It was the intention to have the road ready for business a month ag, but the bad weather prevented this from being done. This extension enables the Louis
ville, New Albany and Chicago to
tan direct from Louisville to Chicago over its own line, and, as soon as its Indianapolis extension is completed, which will be in two or three month, it will also be able to run through trains from Indianapolis and Chicago. Heretofore the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago railroad made connection for Chicago with the Mishigan Centr.il at Michigan City, and was not able to ran through trains on account of the circuitous route. By the new extension itecuresan air-line from Chicago to Louisville and Indianapolis, and will be the shortest ami most direct route to those points. Up to this time the Kankakee Line has done the bulk of the Indianapolis aud Louisville business to and from Chicago, but a great portion of this btjin3 will hereafter go by the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago, its this i the only line under one management running from this city to Utoee points, the Kankakee line being made up of different corporations. Au extensive switch!'rd and engine house have been milt for the Louisville, New A'lmny & Chicago by the Western Indiana at Forty-ninth street, snd tiie new-comer wLU have all the fa;litis for transacting a large freight Ltuiness at this point.

IVISQ AWAY A GOOD THINGS. We have been very much 'fascinated of hit u by an advertisement v-hkih has been inserted in a, majority of the lNtpera in the country.
It H sweet advertisement, and!
breatiM-s such a spirit of "peace and good will" to man, that we are tain to particularize with re erence to it. It purports to be the words of a
banking company in New York, . it .i . ? .
ma tens me woriu inn an investment of from ten to cue thousand dollars will surely yield from ten to twenty per cent, per month, this
immense yield being the fruits of
wise investments m . iVali street. Now, this a great cha'ice a wonderful chance. A hundred dollars in "puts and calls" would return the owner,at the end of tlx year, counting ten per ccoL per month, one hundred and twenty dollars interest money ; or at twenty per cent, two hundred and forty dollars interest, on the original hundred dollars, which could still remain to "do so again." There is only one thing that puzzles us about all this. Why do these "bankers" want other people's money to in vest ? If it is such a "big thing," why don't they invest their own, or borrow money to. reap their r ich reward '? As long, probably, as there are peopte in the world who come under the category of "cheerful idiots ,"
just so long will these benevolent
speculators m Wall street indulge in champagne suppers and dress in purple and fine linen.
The Blew Road Law,
ASO SOME OF ITS BUSINESS INTERESTS, AC.
THE
OFFICE OF TOWNSHIP ROAD
superistenukst.
AU know tbat a new law was
enacted last winter tbat radically changes the old system of road
working, but many do not know
just what the provision ! of the new
law are. It provides fir a "super
intendent of roads for each town
ship to be elected on the 1st Mon
day in April, 1882, and every two
years thereafter, who has entire charge of making and repairing all
roads and bridges in ti e township.
A poll tax of $2 shall I levied up
on each able-bodied man, and a road tax on all property not exceeding 25 cents on each $100 valuation,
and this shall constitute a road
fund for making and keeping in repair ail roads in the to'vnship. The
township snperintendent shall each year appoint a road m ister in each township. Laborers are to be employed to work the roa Is at the usual prices for labor, and be paid out of the road fund. The superintendent may let out the work on roads to the best bidders, who make sealed bids for same on proper notice and specifications of the work. Lands may be entered aud gravel taken therefrom and damages assessed therefor. The old office of supervisors of roads is abolished, and all the old laws repealed. Per
sons who apply to the superintend
ent, may work out their taxes on
a road by complying with the rules
and regulations for working pre
scribed by the superintendent."
It will be seen that the office of I
road superintendent is a very im
portant one, and it is not every one
tbat can bli it properly, it competent meu are selected fir these positions aud the law carried out as intended, it will be a vast improvement on the old systen, but with dishonest or inefficient superintendents, it may be no improvement.
They should be homst men, of
good judgment and, if possible, having some practical knowledge of engineering. The different townships should select th ir very best man, and the choice should not be governed by partisanship. All are alike interested in havir g the money honestly, and judiciously expended and the roads improved, and the best man should be st lected irre
spective ot politics. iet the peo
ple start out on this line of policy
and it will not be so difficult to fol
low hereafter. The safest plan, as
all must admit, would be to 'elect a
Republican in every township of
Monroe county, next A pnl.
Bedford Banner: John W. Buskirk, of Monroe ., who has presided in the Lawrence circuit
court during the greater portion of
the present term, owing to the illness of Judge Wilsot , is promi
nently mentioned as o proper and suitable person to be presented by the Democracy of this, the 10th Judicial Circuit, for tho Judgeship. Mr. B., although ret young in
years, is as well posted as any law
yer in southern Indian i, and should he consent to make the race and be elected to the office, we are quite
sanguine in the opw.on that he
would not cast a shadow of reproach upon such notable Judges as Bicknell and . Wilson have proven, but would ever hold his ermine from trailing in the dust.
Chicago is complaining because it often buys lard wher. it wishes .to buy butter. This is due, it is said, to the makers jf "lutterine," a
seeming butter whose chief ingred
ient is lard. J here is in that city
a company called the 'iarden L'tty
Dairy Company, that makes large
quantities of buttennc. It is put up in neat-looking rolls, prints, boxes, and firkins, and graded as "dairy" and "creamery" and sells
for 20f to 31 cents per ;ound by the wholesale. The Chicago Grocers' Bulletin holds that th- nomenclature employed, such as "rolls,"
"prints," "dairy," and "creamery," is fraudulent, because the compound is really nothing but lard, and in no way eotitlud to bt ranked as butter or any other sM-t of compound mad of milk.
Some men are boi n poor, oth
ers achieve poverty, and a legion
more start newspapers, and live on

One may travel far and wide throughout the State of Indiana without finding a village, town or city that approximates to Bloomington in point of j beauty of location, healthfulness, natural resources, of educational interests,, of morality, or of general trade. This is not merely our own observation, but the unamiuoti3iopiuion rendered by those who arc at all acquainted with the city and its varied interests, and who have had occasion or opportunity to contrast it with other cities in the State. Bloomington is the county seat of Monroe county, and contains n population of near 3,000 souls, which, in point of morality nnd general intelligence, may bo considered far above the general average. The city is built upon elevated ground, above the general level, and in consequence has excellent drainage in all directions. It is laid out with regularity, the streets crossing at right angles and with
the cardinal points of the compass are broad, well provided with shade trees, good sidewalks, etc. The principal streets are being Mcadamized as rapidly as possible,and other improvements of a public nature are either under way or contemplated. The central part of the city so fur as business is concerned is the public square, in the center of which is a Court House, which while not modern in construction has been recently improved so much that it will answer the purpose for which it is intended during the next twenty years or more. Upon the four sides of this square the principal mercantile interests of the city cluster. Most of the business blocks are attractive two nnd three story brick structures. Upon the north and south sides especially, are some very fine blocks, which would reflect
credit upon cities twice the size of
this. Scattered throughout the city are many elegant private rcsidcuccs,and pretty grounds, and a stroll or drive through the streets necessarily impresses anyone favorably as to the general character of the place and its citizens. The L., N. A. & C. Railway divides the city into two unequal portions, the principal part of town being cast of the road. Upon the east side also, (with one exception,) are the churches and other public buildings, such as the High School, the Court House, Jail, University and most of the manufacturing in
terests.
Bloomington derives its support
from a wealthy country dirietfy
surrounding it. Beside a produc
tive soil there is unlimited growth
of timber, suitable for manufactur
ing purpose, within close proximity, and this is the natural depot for
their sale, manufacture or shipment. A large area of country is tributa
ry to the city in many ways, and
the development of Bloomington
thus fur has been uion a sound,
not speculative basis.
This county is full of the finest
limestone,much of which is quarried
and shipped to Chicago and ether distant points. Two quarries are worked in sight of Bloomington
Dunn's and Dillon's.
Aside from the resources of the
surrounding country, Bloomington has had within itself, for years, a source of growth, humanizing, elevating in its nature; its school system. Beside the public schools (we mean those graded below the Normal) the presence of the State University here has been productive of incalculable good, attracting hitherward the best elements of society, and surrounding young and old with an air of refinement. The city owns one of the handsomest High Sobool buildings in the State, and its corps of teachers are excelled by those of no other city of Indiana. As we have said, Bloomiugton boasts of the State University, the leading scholastio Institution of the State, which is supported by the
State, and in which tuition is free. Its corps of Professors embraces the names of men who stand upon the sr.mo intellectual plane with the most gifted miodii oi Harvard or of
Yale; its alumni embraces a long roll of iutellecl.ual meu who have proved giants among their fellows, and the institution has conferred a world-wide name upon our unpretending little city. At home its presence has been no less beneficial. It has caused vice and immorality to hide themselves. It has educated our people, whether students or no, and it is ouc of the leading at
tractions that constitute Bloomington a desirable point of residence. We cannot urge these educational advantages too strongly. These institutions of learning emenate from the people for the people the rich, the poor, the learned, are all at liberty to driuk at the Pierrian springs, whose waters flow in such profusion, and we say it, uot boastingly, that Bloomington offers better educational advantages than any other town in the State. Walking hand in hand with the schools, are our church organizations, inculcating lessons of morality and of usefulness. Of societies and houses of worship there are the United Presbyterian ou North College Avenue, the Presbyterian, and the Covenanters, both on Walnut street, the Baptist aud Christian churches in the southeastern portion of the city, the Methodist Episcopal church on South College Avenue, Episcopal Church, N.CclIege Avenue, aud the Eoman Catholic church on west 4th street. The M. E. church is a hatul.- ome new building of modern architecture, completed last summer, while the places of worship of the Baptist and the Covenanter societies have been completed within the past two j'oars. The people of the Christian denomination are rapidly accumulating a fund to be used in the building of a new structure. The colored people also have three churches : African M. E., Methodist Episcopal, and Baptist, each "society owning its building and each being regularly supplied with pastors. Of material advantages, our railroad iuterests,present and prospective, must not be lost sight of. Now we are dependent on the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago railroad, but another great trunk road, the Indianapolis, Evansville & New Orleans Straight Line, is now in process of construction, while steps
are being taken to insure the building of a read from Columbus to Worthington via Bloomington,! bus giving us a direct outlet to Cincinnati aud St. Louie. These railroads will open up to us the immense deposits of coal and iron in the counties of Greene, Daviess and Pike, will give us egress in all desired directions, and will make Bloomington one of the important railway centers of the State, having direct connection with six of the largest western cities : Cincinnati, Evansville, Chicago, Louisville, Indianapolis and St. IiOtiis, and connecting also with the net-work of railways that radiate from them. Of manufactories Bloomington has hod quite a number for years, but a new impetus has been given to this up-building branch of in- j
dustry within the past two years. Two factories have been started j
within the past three months Eyors & Co.'s spoke and hub lac
tory, and Dodds, Henley & Co.'s chair factory. There are now two spoke factories, one furniture fac
tory, one bedstead factory, one ma
chine shop aud foundry, one p.ow
factory, one chair factory, two girist mills, three stave yards, a woolen
factory, and a tannery doing an Im
mense business, all within the cor
porate limits. Some 500 persons are employed in these manufactur
ing establishments.
Land can be bought in Monroe
county at very moderate figures,
Within five miles of Bloomington prices rarge at from five to thirty
dollars per acre, according to the
improvements that have been made. Many a discontented man makes a
forced sale of his land and personal
property, and after blundering over
the treeless prairies of Kansas for a
month' or two, is induced to buy a
piece of alkali land tbat will not
grow a respectable crop of Canada
thistles. All of the land in this
county is adapted to the growth of
blue grass, while much of it is ex
cellent corn and wheat land. Be
fore you go further wast determine
in your own mind if it will not pay you better to stop here and farm intelligently. People Who Get Vaccinated. HOW THEY ACT, AND WHAT THEY
SAY ABOUT IT. A doctor who has vaccinated ov
er 300 men, women and children in the last two weeks, has had heaps of fuu in watching the workings of human nature under the lancet. "Getting vacciuited" is somehow connected in most minds with getting a tooth ptilkd, aud patients expect to sutler as much paiu. Not more than two reen out of ten Wulk square up to the rack. They hesitate, hang on, n.ake inquiries, aud in many iustanccs remark that they will wait a day or two. One rcfus- J ed to be vaccinated until he va.s tied to a chair. Another offered the doctor a dollar extra to give him chloroform. Scores of them j want some object to clutch to, and
they shut their eyfs,grit their teeth, and call up sufficient resolution to carry thens through the operation of having a broken leg resut. A well known citizen had made two calls and backed out. The third time ho came he rushed into the office, peeled oil his coat and pushed up his slcive, and throwing himself into a chair shut his eyes and called out : "Quick ! Quick ! Bring on that laughing gas, aud thcu don't bo a second putting that lancet iuto my arm !" A negro wan one day observed walking up and down in front of the office for a long time, aud the doctor- finally stepped to the door and asked him if he wanted to be vaccinated. "Deed, sab, dat's what I cum fur," was the reply, "but de werry miuit I turned dat co'ner de blamed fing quit aching !" The favorite exclamation with men when the lancet is felt is "Woosh!" Once in awhile one says "thunder !" s.nd about on-i in twenty refers to a land that is hotter than this. Most of the women express their surprise with an "ouch !'' but now and then one yells : "Oh, Lordy !" As a rule, the women all shed tears, and many of them come prepared to faint away ; children have to be flattered and coaxed, and it is sometimes necessary to tell them that bears and Indians are always on the lookout lor children who haven't been vaccinated. Tears find sobs and wails are the rule, but the transit from "Oh, ma, I know he'll kill me!" to, "Say, 1 got vaccinatad and never cried but oncel" is as glorious as it ii brief.
The home supply from the millions of wives which nro slaughtered in this "ouutry is wholly inadequate to meet ihe demand for rennets, hence they are largely imported from Europe. It is to be hoped tiiat the enterprising chemists and invostigators of the age will discover some method of extracting zhe active ageut in rennet, and in a state of absolute purity and freedom from objectionable) animal matter, with a degree of uniformity hi strength as weL as concentrated form. Accustom yoarseif to think vigorously. Menial capital, like pecuniary, to be worth anything must be well invested must be rightly adjusted and applied, aud to this end careful, deep and intense thought is necessary if great results are looked for. There is no such thing as standing still in this world change Is she eternal law of nature. -. Keeping Poultry In Orchards. This is a matter that should bo practiced when possible. We believe that If farmers and fruit-raisers knew the benefits arising from such management they would at once adopt it. Last fan we visited an orchard in which fowls were kept; the owner of which told us that before the fowls were confined in it, the trees made little or no growth, and only a corresponding amount of fruit was obtained. Hut what a change was evident now. The grass was kept down, the weeds killed and the trees presented an appearance of thrift, which the moat enthusiastic horticulturist could not but admire and envy. The growth of the trees was most vigorous, and their foliage remarkably luxuriant. The fruit was abundant, of large size and free from worm and oilier imperfections. This excellence was accounted
j for by the iroprietor, who remarked
that too hens rite all the worms aud eurculio In their reach, even the canker worm. lie found less trouble with their roosting in trees than he expected, and that a picket fence six feet high kept them within bounds. His orchard was divided into three sections, and the fowls were changed from one to another, as the condition of tho fowls or the orchard section seemed to require. Potdtiy World, Oil, George! She was young and Mr, and a tear glistened in her eye as she laid her curly head upon his shoulder, aud exclaimed, "Oh, George, I think if I found you did not love me, I should die." "My darling," he answered, passing his hand gently around her dimpled chin, "I will always love you. Do you think I would many you if I did not feel sure of it In a few days, at the altar, I
ho suddenly produced the shirt, and ; shall vow to love you all my life, and I flirted it in the bull's face. Tho beast j shall keep my vow." A lovely .kind of

Putting a Bull to the Test, They had a discussion over at M iller's the other day about bulls. Mr. Miller said that it was all nonsense to talk about a bull being excited and made furious by a red nig. .lie said he had an ugly-tempered Devcn bull over in the field who would take it like a lamb if he would shake the flag s of all nations in his face. Dr. Robinson said that Miller darn't try it. and Miller bet Robinson that he would. So Miller went into the house and loaded himself up with a red Annuel undershirt, mid we all walked, out to the field. Tl.e bull was there, looking as emm as a summer morning. Miller climbed tlio fence, and went toward the nuimn , keeping the shirt behind him. As lie came close to the bull

get s; while he was makmg this signal of victory, an idea seemed to striko the bull. He put. his head down and movad swiftly forward. Miller at first thought there bad been fin earthquake. lie was hurled up twenty feet, nnd when he struck the ground he made another ascension. Upon his descent he thought he would try to run, but a Devon shorthorn was inserted in his trousers, and again ho went up big :i enough to take a bird's-eye view of the surrounding country. On the twenty-fifth descent ha fell on the other side of the fence from tho bull, and we picked him up. His
clothes were In ribbons. His nose was
furled and bloody, and his month uas full of grass nnd mud.
We asked him how he felt; but he said nothing. We inquired concern ing the condition of ins bones, but he made no reply. We asked if bis views about bulls had undergone any change, but he walked silently along-. We wanted to know how he enjoyed the scenery the last time he went up, but be would not say. He merely went into the house, filled up both barrels of his gun with old nails, and screws and scraps of iron, and then he went out to interview that bull. The animal was a corpse In ten minutes, and then Miller peeled his undershirt and went up stairs to bed. We know wltat his views are now, although he doesn't express thorn freely. Max Adiitir. Chnicoal and lime. Permit us again to urge all breeders of poultry who wish healthy fowls, to be liberal in supplying their fowls with charcoal. It is one of the best preventives of disease amongst the fowls that can be named. Even if the fowls are not confined, but especially o if they are, charcoal
pounded up into bits or pieces about the size of a grain of com, or a little finer, should In) put around in small piles where tha fowls con have easy access to it,-ami they will soon make use of it. The cost of charcoal is but a trine and wheie the distance from town or city is so great as to'prevent it from being readily obtained therefrom, the ashes from a wood-stove may be sieved out and the srndl bite of charred wood or charcoal used in the place of that
made in the regular way. Especially during the spring and early summer months, is it advisablo to use charcoal freely. Lime, too, is valuable in many ways. In tho form of whitewash it begets cleanliness, freedom from dis
ease, and laying hens should have lime
