Where do so many well-dressed men come from f asked a friend the other day. The Progress hears this query often of late, and the reason for it is so obvious, that it .is a matter of surprise that it is .not more generally understood. They boy their clothing of Benj. McGee, on the south side of the square, of course, and hence look genteel and dreesy, even if their , outfits do not- cost as mnch as those worn by some others. McGee has a superb stock of goods now, laaong which is an invoice of Hats, Shirts, Ties, and Gents' furnishing articles that cannot be excelled in the county. He has been in bos- ' inesa so long in Bloomington that he knows just the style and quality of goods most suitable for his trade, ana it is seldom a man leaves McGee'a store without the . article sought for. , GjHAfttET. Mobley'a "Golden Kohj" store is well supplied with seasonable summer goods, which are sohl at low prices. Mobley keeps a special stock for each sea- " eon, and manages to work off. each

ways has new goods of the latest styles, and so makes his store a" popular resort for bargain buyers. Call and see bis novelties.

Fabmebs, mechanics and build-

will find it to their interest to

call at Btnart & MePheetetV hardware store before purchasing, as an immense quantity in this line is kept by the house. Special advantages offered to persons about 'to bnjld, in sash, doors, blinds, hardware and paints.

Albert Johnson of Jefferson-

ville. Ind a brother-in-law of

Benj. McGee, is visiting relations. Twenty-five years ago Mr. John

son wan a .ffltijWft of -Bloomington, and carried on the grocery and pro

vision trade in G reeves' corner room. Jos, Blair and wife returned from Southern California, week before last, after two months' absence. The climate was not beneficial to Mrs. Blair's health-she grew worse all the time, and was anxious to spend the remainder of her days among friends and relations in Indiana. Oscar Reed left Bloomington last week for Crisman, Ills., where he has been tendered a position as

prescriptionist in a drag house.

Oscar has had considerable exper

ience in first-class establishments,

and is a valuable acquisition to any

firm. ' --The camp-meeting of the col

ored M. E. Church closed on Sunday night a week. Rev. Mr.

Vaughn did not receive the assist

ance be had reason to expect from other preachers, and so the bulk of the work devolved upon him. Presiding Elder Hammond could

could not be present on the last

Sunday as was expected, still the attendance was quite satisfactory. The profits of the meeting amounted to (93.00 The camp-meeting

plan seems to be the most success

All are not acquainted with

the fact that parlies who are un

able to work their road tax and

too poor to pay it, can be exempted

therefrom by applying to the township trustee, who will furnish them with certificates of exemption.

Furthermore, for the collection of

tax from responsible parties, the

law provides that any persons not

exempted and refusing to work or pay, Bait must be brought against them by the supervisor within ten days after notice, or be himself sub

ject to a fine of 10.

-L. E. McKinney's family, his

household effects and farming implements, have been in Texas since last January. "Set he has been

acting as county treasurer while he

was not a legal voter, and therefore could not be a citizen I On

Tuesday of last week he appointed

Isaac dayman his deputy and

then took the train for Texas. What right had a citizen of Texas to bold a county office in Indiana,

and under what legal construction

he competent to appoint a dep

uty treasurer? .Evidently he has

been acting: without authority of

law during the past six months,

and the people have been standing idly by while a Texas man has

been handling their funds. It is a surprisingly strange proceeding from beginning to end if this is

the end.

On the 11th inst, O. E. Fos

ter of White Hall,and his wife, celebrated the 44th years of their

marriage. On this occasion there

were present their six children and

their companions (four daughters

and two sons.) There were also

present thirteen grandchildren

The day was passed pleasantly, and

a . grand dinner was prepared

Among the pleasant features of the

occasion was the presentation to

Mr. Foster and wife of a handsome Brussels carpet from the grand children. Many other handsome a

presents were made and innumer

able tokens of esteem were visible.

Dunn & Co. sent Mr. Foster

that gentleman to be 'Host - a fit."

The camp-meeting held at

Worthington by the African M. E.

Church of this place and of Spencer, closed on Sunday a - week. While the receipts were large, the expenses were proper tionately heavy, and the two churches, after expenses were paid, had $189 to

divide. The preacher of the Spen

cer church, owing to sickness in his family, was unable to give much attention to the meeting, and

the principal work was done by Rev. Mr. Clay of this place, than

whom there is no better nan, white or colored.

It has come to light that Prof.

Woodburn of the Preparatory De

partment, has been tendered a po

sition in Vincennee College at a salary of $1,000 per annus. (He

is paid f 750 here.) Prof. W.'s Value as an educator it so well known, that we believe the Trustees will certainly not permit him to leave. He has performed a vast amount of labor id the past, and performed it willingly a a duty

But there is such a thing as injus

A tribe of Indians hi.il a feast,

one night last week, about a quar

at Ketcham's Spring, Judge Frank

A piece of seasonable advice : Take care of yonr tax receipts. J. J. Curry and R. S. Curry are engaged in the grocery business in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Mrs. Ruth Howard, of Smithyille, died of consumption,on Monday of last week, aged about fifty years. ; -It has rained in the country, round about, almost in every direc

tion, but hasn't wet the "just" of

Bloomington, as yet. That is the way the saints are persecuted. Mrs. Polk, of Vioksburg, Miss., and Miss Lillie Howe, who has been in Yickabnrg during the past twelve months, arrived in Bloomington last week. -McCalla & Co. are closing out their stock of fine goods at cost to make ready for removal to the new room. Go and get bargains. The Teachers' Instiiue will not be held this year in August,

as has been the custom heretofore.

Owing to the meeting of Confer

ence during the last week of Aug

ust, the institute has been postponed till Christmas holidays. " The Rogers Reunion occurred on last Thursday. Some two hun

dred persons were present, and as the weather was favorable, every

one had an enjoyable time. Ben. Smith has sold his slock

of tinware to Stuart & McPheeters, and Milt.Rogers is hurrying off

his stock of harness. Rogers will be

Treasurer Claman's deputy.

Harry Durand, a promising

young attorney of Chattt&nooga, Tenn., has married the daugh

some timet

Bloomington did not respond

Jiargely, in a numerical point of

afternoon. Oa Sunday morning

the sermon will be preached by

Rev. E. Ballentine; services in the afternoon by Rev. J, H Ketcham, of Martinsville.

Unless one takes a ride in and

about this city he can have no per

fect idea of the extent of improvements that are going forward. In every direction new streets are be

ing opened or old ones improved, new buildings are being erected or

old ones enlarged, and everywhere carpenters, masons and laborers are

busy.

It is a source of congratulation

that while National Banks in many towns throughout the country are closing their doors in consequence of bad management, or the rascality of some of their trusted officers, the 1st National of Bloomington was never in a healthier condition than at present. The Burplos fund and undivided profits alone amount to about $30,000,

while of first-class loans they have

over $200,000.

It is a matter of surprise that

men who are familiar with the business and have the capital, do not go to work and form a company for manufacturing, in the McCalla planning mill. There is a large, well-planned building, an inexhaustible water supply, and it is located right on the railroad (no hauling to do). The machinery is of the best and latest patterns, and

the mill is offered more work than

it can do. Men who understand the business and have the energy,

could make big money out of it.

Real estate is the safest invest

ment that can be made at any time, more particularly now,when values are feverish and unsettled, Real

estate possesses a security that be

longs to nothing else except United States bonds.. Real estate values are well settled in Bloomingtoniand

this-class af property now shows an advancing tendency. Persons

who have earned their little savings literally in the sweat of their

face, feel a keener suffering when it is taken from them than those to whom money comes without daily

toil, and without the practice of

rigid, pinching economy. A piece of land, or a few well-located town lots is a security that cannot burn, aud so leave you penniless. It is safer than bank stock for the reason that you can manage it yourself, and are not compelled to depend upon the Judgment of others whose judgment is not always as good as yours. If you loan your money to an individual he will not pay the interest (in most cases) when due,' and you are compelled to hire a lawyer, and pay court expenses, if you want to get back the principal.

Real estate is the only "aure and

certain" security, and in it ooly, all

uieu of limited mean should iuvest their savins.

Show, on the 22d of September,

does not appear this week according to announcement. Owing to

the great labor incident to. securing

premiums, the list was not ready on Tuesday, but it will certainly appear next week. Mr. A. H.

Pering is working industriously to make the show a success. On Wednesday last, Auditor Fulk and R. W. Miers went to In

dianapolis, to consult the Attorney General about the treasury muddle. The Attorney General holds that

when McKinney's family removed

to Texas, he was disqualified for acting as Treasurer, and that his appointment of a deputy, before

leaving on Tuesday of last week, was a huge joke. Mr. Claman refused to act, under McKinney's ap

pointment, and on Friday the com

missioners appointed I. Milt Rog

ers as county treasurer till September 8th. Mr. Rogers has had eight

years' experience in the oifice, is a man in whom every one has the

fullest confidence, and will disen

tangle the affairs of that office if

any one can.

On the 4th Sunday of the present month, Eld. Treat will hold a basket meeting at Maple

John H, Louden went to Rushville, Ind., last Monday, on legal business. -We'd like to have the artesian Well flowing, if for no-other reason,

The Progress was alarmed at the possible condition of the 1st National Bank . of Bloomington, during the recent panic at Indianapolis. Fact is we have been in debt to that institution pretty regularly

since it has been organised, and the

thought that its doors might close so that we would not be able to get in and pay off the note, naturally made the undersigned feel nervous. Bees are so plentiful in this locality the present summer, as to have become a nuisance of large proportions. The grocery stores are sometimes swarming with them, greatly to the disgust of nervous persons. When you see a grocery clerk's eyes bunged up, or his lips swelled out of proportion, you may know that he has been trying to "drive bees." It was funny, on Monday, to hear some of the loud talkers getting mad over the location of the artesian well. It is not a desirable thing to be near, though some who have never been about these sloppy, stinking places, think so. Let it alone as it has been located. The waters are medicinal, and will boom the town, but the wastage is slimy, stinking, and will discount the yellow frame building on the northeast corner, any day. The United Presbyterian Congregation of Bloomington, Indiana, will celebrate its Semi-Centennial Anniversary, on the 13th of September. The following will be the order of exercises : Literary entertainment on Monday evening, representing sentiments of fifty years ago. Gen. Jackson Reception, on Tuesday evening. Presbyterial Conf e r e n c e on Tuesday, at 2 p. m. Presbyterial Ladies' Missionary

Society exercises, Wednesday,2 p.m.

Anniversary exercises in labertews grove, on Thursday. Mr. R. J. Morris, who graduated with the High School Clara last June, died at his home near Rockville, last. Friday. Mr. Mor- j fls Was well arid favorably known

in bloomington, being regarded as one of the most promising young men in the University. He will be remembered from his strong debate on Prep, contest in May, and from

the important part he played in their entertainment in the winter. He was a leader in his class, It is said that the sulphur fumes from artesian wells, have a very deleterious effect on all kinds of bright metals. A jewejry store was formerly located opposite the Lafayette artesian well, and the fumes came into the store room 89 strongly as to corrode the silverware whenever the cases were thrown open, or during the brief time occupied in exhibiting these goods to customers. We very much fear our friend, Tobe Smith, will find the well a source of annoyance on this ground. Both John and Sherman Davis arrived at homo from the west, Monday. The peopHe of all surrounding towns. are invited to come (after we gat through quarreling about its location) ami dcink from our new artesian well. Ellettsville CUUen: On Monday morning Mrs. Julia R. Braxtan, accompanied by her sons, George and Thomas, left for an overland trip to visit friends in Lawrence and Orange counties, and to try the waters of West Baden.

tTnlonTllIe Old Settlers. The-day was pleasant. At fen o'clock about fifteen hundred people were assembled in the grov; west of the Baptist Church. From the interest taken by all concerned, it was augured that this, the first meeting at Unionviiie, would- be a success, and such it was. After a song, the services were opened with" prayer by Rev. J. M. Barrow. Messrs. Waltman and Browning ot Nashville made appropriate addresses, after which Eli K Millen addressed the audience in his usual forcible manner. Elias Abel made the closing speech of the forenoon and gave the dinner call, which wae soon followed by a bounteous repast. In the afternoon speeches were made by the following old pioneers: W, L. Ad' ams, Rev; J. B. 'Cor, Jas. W. Spencer, Jacob Stephens, Dr. Jas. B. Campbell, Andrew Parks and John Knight. The exercises were interspersed with music by the choir, led by D. A-. Young. Much of the good management of the occasion is -due to our efficient President, R. L. Stephens. A year from this time (Aug. 15th, 1881) -there will be another Old Settler's meeting at Unionville, with same officers. Closed-with an old fashioned camp-me-ting song and handshaking. Take ii all in all it was a very enjoyable time. We hope to welcome the old settlers into our midst many times more. D.B. If Era.
