John Sears, of this place, was married at Bedford on Tuesday ev

day for "houses to rent." The Cincinnati Gazette of last Thursday makes frequent reference
to Prof. John R. East, evidently imagining that all Bloomington men are Professors.

On Friday night last a special car containing the officers of the
L. N. A. & C. railroad, was taken from Michigan City to Monon, a
distance of seventy-one miles in
seventy-five minutes. One day last week John Reeves was liberated from the county jail
on bail, Jos. E. Henley and R. Wt
Miers appearing as his bondsmen, upan condition that he should go
to work, and conduct himself in a
proper manner. Reeves did not
comply with his part of the con
tract, and on Friday he was sur
rendered by his bondsmen and now occupies a suite of rooms in Grimes'
hotel. The Progress desires to ask : "What right ha3 a street contractor to take the stone that you have used to fill in on your street, and haul it away for his individual use and benefit?" Lawyers say that the minerals, fruits, &c. &c., in the ground, as far as the middle of the road are your property. If this view of the matter is correct, the high-handed system of gouging which is sometimes carried on under color of authority as street contractor, should meet with a prompt and decided protest. The regulation stone walk, now being put down so extensively in Bloomington, is the most uncomfortabls pavement ever invented to twist the ankles, induce corns, aud
cultivate a shambling, uncertain
gait. The rocks are lumpy, irregular and mishapen, and it is more in the nature of torture than convenience to walk over them. Charley Smith and Anderson Johnson, two young colored men, had been attending a "social" in the east end of town last Saturday evening, and on their return were scuffling. Smith had an open knife in his hand, and exclaimed "G'way, chile, I'll carve you," slashing at Johnson with the knife. He did carve him, cutting the leaders of
Johnson's right band, and the possibility is that the hand will never more be a useful member. The Bell Telephone Company sent a couple of men to this place last week, who placed four boxes in position, viz : at the National Hotel, Postoffice, Adams Express office, and at Dunn & Co's. It would pay to construct a line from Ellettsville to Bloomington, Len. S. Field, of the New
York store, and W. W. Wicks, of
the Bee Hive, will leave Blooming
ton for New York and other eastern cities on next Sunday night. : Object, immense stocks of fall and
winter dry goods. Wm. Blakely say s he has nev
er had finer prospects for a big corn j
crop. The frequent rains and the hot sunshine of the past two weeks, seem to have a marvelous effect; up
on corn crops, both . early and late. The express train due at 12 o'clock Saturday night arrived here early Sunday morning at 8. The delay was occasioned by a disabled engine. Bedford Banner : Mr. Thomas N. Stevens, who was so badly crushed on Wednesday of last week, at the residence of A. C.

which are some interesting facts and figures for the people at large.
Information of damaged -crops
is received from England. A good
demand is thus insured for the immense crop that the United States
is harvesting. The coun ty jail has an unusual number of patrons at present. It is cooler within those stone walls than in the sunshine outside, hence the henceuess of these law-breakers. The attention of soldiers is directed to the card of Jos. Holt
Hunter. He makes arrears of pensions a speciality and is very successful in securing them for applicants. At 10 o'clock last Friday an excursion train passed this point, going north, with two engines, two baggage cars and ten coaches, crowded with colored people. Week before last 485 busheh of blackbeniefi were shipped from Guthrie to Lafayette and Chicago. It was expected that last week's shipments would exceed this amount. The May Belle carried a delegation of Mendelssohn Society to Spencer, last week, in which benighted village "Peaelope" was given in good style to a large audience. The Democratic State convention try to dictate when the amendments shall be voted upon. Tbey prefer to have them voted upon at a general election, when partisan bias can be brought to bear. The legislature, if it again adopts
the amendments, will fix the time for holding the election. James Welch, a bartender in Jack Hight's saloon tit Stinesville,
who had been in Bloomington all
day last Sattfrday, boarded the midnight express train for home, in company with Matt. James and Bill
Welch. Upon reaching the wood-
yard, tour mil. trom town, Welch
charged Bill Welch (the two are
not related) with attempting to p.o
through his pockets, and got up out
ot his seat when he was slapped n
the face and knocked down in the aisle by James, and was pulled out
ot the car down under the coal pit, and as he claims, relieved of $27. The victim was assisted back on the train by his fellow-travelers and taken to his home in Stinesville. Welch and James returned 'to Bloomington and on Sunday morning took the passenger train south. James returned Monday and was arrested and in default of $500 bail was committed to jail to await his preliminary examination. The assaulted man was considerably under the influence of liquor, Courier, On Friday afternoon last James had a preliminary examination before Esquire Tate, at which the conductor of the traiii, the roadmaster and others testified. James was required to give bail in $800 for bis appearance at court in September. Failing to do this he wiis placed in jail. Rain has fallen in this locality every day during the past ten. Miss Maggie Rumple died at her home iu Ellettsville, on Sunday morning a week. Miss Kate Bight and Miss

The Ciosport Accident. Gosport, Aug. 1. This morning., about 8 o'clock, the boiler in Ruit barker's fine saw mill, explod
ed, literally tearing everything to pieces. Robert Rock of Blooming
ton , head sa wyer, was so seriously injured that he died soon afterwaid ; John McAlister, the engineer, was badly,perhaps fatally hurt ; ra. White, one of the firemen, was slightly wounded. Two visitors at the mill, a young man named Anderson,and Mr. Shelton, were slightly hurt. Fortunately nearly all tho employes of the mill were at work in the log-yard, otherwise the lo.?s of life would undoubtedly have been very heavy. It is said that the explosion was due to carelessness. The loss is estimated at $6,000. Tho Spencer Republican says : Soon after work had commenced, the pump which supplied the boil
ers was found to be out of order, and the foreman ordered the mill shot down and sent all the hands out into the yard to move some
logs while he and the engineer ex
amined and fixed the pump. The
men liau beeu on the yard but a short time when the crash came. This is said to be the first; time within a year that the mill had been clear of hands duriug working hours, and had the explosion occurred at almost any other time
-the loss of life would certainly have
been greater. The foreman and engineer were
removed from the wreck as soon as possible. The former was terribly mangled, unconscious, and he died within an hour. The latter was
also terribly injured, and at last accounts it was thought impossible
for him to recover. Two visitors were in the second
story of the building at the lime, and miraculously escaped with a few slight wounds. One of them
was blown clear of the wreck, how he cannot tell, but without waiting
for explanations, started down the railroad as faiit as he could go to the depot, witla the blood streaming over bis face from his lacerated
scalp. He alarmed all he met by
reporting that everybody about the mill was killed. The news created
great 'excitement, and soon citizens and physiciani! were on the ground ready to assist the suffering men.
rcrsons wao have seen such wrecks before say they never saw! such utter destruction anywhere. There were two boilers .in the mill. The flues aud fragments of the one exploded were thrown into a pond 200 feet south, and the other one 1 went end over end 100 feet up the
hill west. One of the heaters was
found 200 yards or more southeast. A man approaching the mill, a quarter of a mile away, was looking directly at the building. He says the whole roof raised about fif
teen feet, then came the crash ; steam, stones, brick, lumber, iron,
boilers and everything burst
through the roof, rising to a great
hizht, flew in every direction, and
settled down, a confused mass of
rums.
Farmers threshing wheat a mile
away heard the explosion, and saw the debris rise and fall. They comprehended the situation, and hurried to the scene. Mr. Rumbargcr was on the yard and narrowly escaped a flyinc brick
which knocked a large hole in the
side ot a freight car standing on the railroad. Mr, White, one of the firemen, was struck on the leg and slightly lamed. Mr. Rock, the deceased foreman, leaves a wife and two children. Mr. McAllister, the wounded engineer, has a wife and several children. The cause of the explosion is not certainly known, but as the pump was out of order, it is probable that the water was low, though it is said there was water at the lower guage w'uen the mill stopped. Persons who have examined the boilers say the unexpioded one evidently had plenty of water in it, but the other was so badly wrecked that little could be determined.
