The suhkeb tradk at Charley

Mobley's is as important as the spring or fall trade. Charley is so well known as a leading and pop

ular fancy and dry goods man, that his customers expect always to find

novelties in his store room, and in thia they are sever disappointed. He makes frequent trips to the eiti9and always returns with a well selected stock. During the

summer months he receives light

orders of choice goods every week or two, thus keeping his stock in prime condition. His lady customers are requested to give him a

This weather should be taken advantage of by street workers,and the stone placed where it belongs a once. David V. Buskirk had ninety acres of grass this summer, averaging two tons to the acre. ' 1,800 tons of hay on one farm ! The State Fair at Indianapolis, begins on Monday next, the 25th inst., and will continue six days. Arrangements have been perfected to make this one of the most successful Fairs in the history of the State. There is no reason why it should not be a grand success every year. Energetic management alone is needed. More mechanics and laboring men, men of small means, have invested in homes, during the past year, than ever before in the history of Bloomington. The building association has assisted them in almost every case, and there is no reason why an industrious man, if so inclined, should not own his home in five years by this plan. It costs but little more than rait. Alfred Thrasher is one of tbe most thrifty farmers in Van Buren township always has bogs, cattle, and crops in abundance. Lost week he finished threshing, and found that it yielded 1,530 bushels, wheat and oats. Thrasher is a justice of the peace, a republican, a prominent member of the Christian

church, he owns 600 acres of tbe best walnut land in the township ; he is estimated to be worth some

140,000, and has eight or ten chil

dren at home. Yet, singular to relate,he does not take a newspaper of any kind religious, literary or

political.

A friend from the country, nho

borrows his neighbor's Progress occasionally, last week sent a mar

riage announcement to this office

with a request couched in the lan

guage of a demand, that the editor

write "somethun purty 'bout it."

Editors do not always feel in a ly

ing humor, and so cannot invariably do justice to the subiect. But

here goes: "The happy groom wore

a lovely white shirt with five pleats:

tbe neck button bad oome off at the last moment, and a pin was inserted to hold the band together; the

point frequently reminded him of

the pathway of thorns he was about

to tread, and hence he held his swan-like neck stiffly during the

ceremony. His stockings were of

cotton (3 for a dime) had heavy

seams at the heel, and with the gen

erous assistance of the new un-

stretched boots he wore, gave him

fresh corns at every step. The col

tache came from Eph. Hughos's barber shop, and had cologne in. it.

The lovely bride was banged and

puffed in the bight of fashion, her

dress being cut with a bias ruche a la pompadore, the trail of point lace

falling to the left in graceful curves. A moire antique shawl was thrown

over her right arm,coquettishly con

cealing a huge vacciunation scar ; several times she blushed charmingly, with a color (50c a box at Shoemakers) reflecting the lovj-lit eye of the groom as a movement of bis head jabbed the pin into bis neck. Tbe muttered maledictions of the groom upon his bootmaker, and the bride's whispered blessings on her blundering dressmaker were all taken in by tbe assembled relations and friends, as words of affection. The bride's arching eyebrows were painted with Don't believe we are inspired to-day, and no will let the parties go through the routine a year or two, and if tbe "happy couple" then desire any slush of this kind printed,they may write it at our expense. Mrs. Mary Ennis, well-known here, lost f 200 worth of jewelry at Indianapoli8,recen lly burglars ha ving entered the residence of L. E Bundy,whoso family she is visiting. Saturday next, is Font Kippor, the day of atonement, observed by all Hebrews as a loligious holiday.

Wall. Browning's little daugh

The Gil more Bros, have a num

ber of finished wagons on hand and

for sale, to which the attention of

farmers and others is directed. The

first-class quality of their work is

undisputed, and the experience thry have had in the business fits them for selecting the best material they know good material when they

see it, which is a qualification every

one does not possess. In buying

one ot the uiirnore wagons you will get the best of iron, wood, steel and paint everything put together iu a workmanlike manner. Colljns & lyarsell are handling THE STEEIi ROLLER Process Flour, which for quality far excels anything; in this market.

here, and who some years ago made

the race tor .representative on the

Daviess county. He, in company with a number of others, were on their way to a Baptist Association,

ana in attempting to cross a stream

his horse got caught in tbe quick

sand. Capt. Caruthcrs's feet were

fast in the stirrups and tbe com bin

save him from a terrible death. He

was drowned in water not more than

three feet deep.

There is no truth in the story

that Maj. Browning, now with Kahn & Tannenbaum, has been pared down till he is a full fledged Hebrew. He didn't know enough to observe New Year, last Friday. Early in the month of October John C. Voss will come to this place from Bedford, and immediately after the ceremony will take a south-bound train, accompanied by Mrs. V. A suit for malicious prosecution was tried in circuit court, last week, J. W. Bnird of Indianapolis, vs. W.C.Lytton of this county. J. W. Buskirk appeared for Baird, and secured him a judgrueut for 1,000. John Rock, who resides east of Jos. B. Clark's farm, was arrested

Saturday night last, charged with

firing the barns east of Bloomington. It will be remembered that a barn on the old Smith place was burned to the ground, and that barns of both Phillips and Clark were fired, but were discovered in time to save them. Rock's arrest ia based on statements he is said to have made to David Smith. The attention of our readers is directed to the advertisement of
