Gr yocb choke family grocer-j John R. East returned from
iss at Hemp Wilson's store, ProgJ-Paxton, His., last week, having
been called to that place to attend to some legal business. Eggs have been very scarce in this market daring the past week. In Indianapolis they have been retailing at 40 and 50c Eleven grocery drummers were in town one day last week. These travelers say Blpomington is one of the best points on the road for their trade. The plate glass show windows of McCalla A Go.'s stone front are kept dancing fotnr nights in each
weak, from the energetic efforts of
the "hoppers" in a hall above. Book agents, picture agents, and fellows in search of little games of poker, were numerous in town hat week. These people are flocking to this point, knowing it to be a great business and commercial center. The Ryors factory is now receiving a large quantity of hickory butts for the manufacture of bubs. This factory has contracts with large wagon establishments, for spokes, that will occupy twelve; months of their time. .banker of Indianapolis estimates the amount of money shipped from that city to Chicago within the past few months to meet loss
es on options at 91,000,000, and
states that smaller towns are Buttering in like proportions. The Beattey Brae, have removed to their residences, just fi ribbed, on east 3rd street. That part of town will be built up so
thickly after a while that McPheteridge will experience considerable difficulty in "moving the old col
lege building (on rollers) to the new location" in Dunn's woods. "If a black man," says Fred Douglass, many years ago, "burns his feet by marrying a white woman, he most expect to stand on the blisters." Perhaps Mr. Douglass, is prepared to do this, but how about the blisters of Mrs. Douglass when she finds herself restricted to the society of a venerable darkey. - Thirteen persons dining to
gether may live tor thirteen years, afterward, but thirteen persons on one sled, engaged in tbe dangerous sport of "coasting," are pretty sore to come to harm. An accident of
this kind is just reported to thir
teen persons at Waynesboro, Fa., and some of them will die.
Because some Barbarians are
foolish enough to bold an alleged
white elephant sacred, the rest of
the fools are crazy to see thesanetifed creature. In consequence of this feeling Barnom's latest acquisition will out-Jumbo Jumbo.
And it wont make any differencec
whether his white elephant is the
genuine article either.

21. A. Ledger: The spread of
small pox at Louisville is creating
a good deal of alarm in that city. There are now near one hundred eases at the Eruptive Hospital, and very many homes in all parts of tbe city are flagged as a warning of the presence of tbe disease. Daily persons suffering with the disease walk the streets to the eity hall where the health office is located, and thus assist in spreading
tbe plague. U unless tbe most vigorous efforts are taken by the Lou
isville Board of Health to stamp it
out, small pox will soon be epidem
tc in that city.

The necklace awarded to the
most popular young lady, at the K of P. banquet, netted $45. Wm. Byerley, the stone mason, is preparing to erect a dwelling on east 3rd street. At the Fireman's banquet, Feb. 14, an elegant gold necklace will be voted to the most popular young lady. Cattle are phenomenally high, and owing to the long winter and the scarcity of feed, will go still higher, it is believed. The supreme court has affirmed a judgment secured in Monroe circuit court by Mrs,Emma Young, against the W. U. Telegraph Co. Win. Castle, at one time a key manipulater in the Bloomington telegraph office, but now an operator in Chicago, has been visiting friends in this place. Bedford Journal : Chris. Steinhagen has accepted a situation at his trade (harness making) with Beed & Sod, in Bloomington, and with his family, has removed to; that place. Persons who have relumed from Florida say that the meat and poultry consumed in the hotels is shipped irom New York, and that the fruits come from the canneries of the north, while condensed milk whitens the coffee and tea. The wife of Capt. Fields made a quick trip to the State of Illinois, week before last. She left here on Thursday noon, and went to Vermillion county, Ills., to visit a brother who was preparing to move west, and returned to Bloomington Saturday evening. Josh. Chandler, a man who has been keeping a small grocery store on South Walnut street, near Bollenbacher's spoke factory, has rented the Bollenbacher room, recently vacated by Van Deman, and will run a quart saloon in that place. John Riley, who for a number of years has been night watchman at tbe Bollenbacher spoke factory, has resigned that position. Mr. Riley was watchman in the railroad round bouse at this place for a great many years, and is a reliable, trustworthy man. Capt. M. H. Shryer, (brother-
in-law of Dr. J. D. Maxwell, of
Bloomington,) an old citizen of Bloomfield, has been appointed by Gov. Porter as one of the delegates to the Biver end Harbor convention, which will assemble at Washington City on the 5th of February. Wm. Kennedy is now the Champion pie-eater of Bloomington tp., having vanquished Ed. McGee, last week, in a match, Kennedy has always been regarded as a pious young man, but no one believed him capable . of eating nine pies till he did so on this occasion. The employes of the two spoke factories, and the bedstead factory, have been idle during the past ten
days, owing to ths breakage of!
machinery .putting in new boilers, etc. If Edison would hurry up his
electric power, to take the place of
steam, there would be a vast saving of time to factory operatives. Trouble with boilers causes a loss of one-fifth of the time.

the county knows Newt.) has rent

one wnurcD, ana is putting it in
repair for a feed and sale stable
There are twenty-five stalls in the
stable, and he proposes to accom
uiodate those of his country friends
who may desire to have their stock
fed while in town. He Is also buying horses, and any one having
first-class horses to sell, will find
liberal buyer in Mathers. Don't
target tbe place, when you come to town and want to pat up your
horses.
M. T. Matthews and lady, representing F. A. Battey and Co. Historical Pub's of Chicago, are at work in Perry township. 01. Barton came from Louisville to attend the K. of P. banquet, and to escort the young lady who was awarded the necklace. Frank Batterton of Greensburg, has been here during the past week on a visit to his mother-in-law, Mrs. Bawles, mho has charge of his motherless boy baby; On Thursday last Prest. Rosevelt passed over the road in the special car "Monon." This was his first day on the road, and he was so unfortunate as to be the recipient of a dispatch giving details of the terrible accident on the Air Line that morning. A sad beginning. Mike Seward, a well-known Bloomington boy, was recently married in Abilene, Kansas. The Reflector, of that city says : "At the residence of the bride's parents, Abilene, on Thursday, Jan. 17th, at six o'clock p. m., by Rev. J. Roddick, Mr. M. H. Seward and Miss Hattie Roddick.

Seward was a valued and popular member of Abilene society. Miss Roddick was one ot the most successful teachers in our
public schools, and withal a charming, accomplished and highly esteemed young lady. Mr. Spangler, University Librarian, is organizing a tour of Europe on bicycles. The party is to be limited to twenty-one persons, who will make the tour of England, France, Germany, and parts of Switzerland and Northern Italy, in this novel manner. It is the intention of the manager to leave New York on the 14th of June, returning Sept. 1st. The' expense of the trip) it is thought, will be not more than $350. There is no clause in tbe announcement exclud
ing ladies, and we naturally infer that an expert lady bicyclist would be given a place with the prescribed twenty-one.
Last Thursday night the
Knights of Pythias gave their second banquet and ball at tbe National Hotel, and to say that it surpas
sed the one given by that live or
ganization a year ago, is saying
much The attendance was very
arge and select, and all seemed to
thoroughly enjoy the occasion. Tbe supper gotten up by Leroy Sanders and wife was superb. The dining room was made ready for the merry dancers after the supper
table had been cleared awayj and Allison's orchestra furnished dreamy music for the billowy waltz and the coquetish cotillion. Among the marked features was the voting of a handsome necklace to Miss Ida Rose, and a cake td
Mrs. Harris, (wife of Dr. J. E. Har
ris) as the popular ladies in attendance.
On Monday a week John
Browning, son of Jesse Browning of Elkinsville, Brown co. got into a controversy with Nathan Hall,
over some matters relating to a saw
mill, in which they owned partner
ship interests. Words led to blows, and to a rough and tumble flcht.
Hall had Browning on tbe ground
and was gouging one of his eyes,
when Browning reached in his pocket and getting a knife, stabbed Hall. The parties were separated and a doctor was dressing Hall's
wound, Hall all the time abusing
Browning, and Browning then se
cured a revolver and shot Hall-
Browning fled. Marshal Reeves
of this place took the express train on Tuesday evening, keeping a sharp lookout at each statiod for
the fugitive. At Bedford Brown
ing stepped on the train; and Reeves arrested him. He was then brought to Bloomington and on
Wednesday morning was taken
across the country to Nashville,
the county seat of Brown Co.- Hall
is recovering, and Browning was
required to give bail in the sum of
700. It was a pretty "slick trick
in some of the people to bold off buying Overcoats till now, because Mose Kahu is selling them for just half what they could have been bought for hist October. A great many persons are buying Overcoats of him who are already supplied, knowing that such bargains will never agniu be wffored in this place
uT Frank R. Wooloy will bo a candidate before the Republican Convention, for re-nomination to the office of Trustee of Bloomington township.
Dr. Moss leaves Bloomington this week for the inhospitable climate of Canada, where be has an engagement to lecture. Miss Erskine, of Rockland, Me., a neice of Maj, Perry, who has been visiting her uncle this winter, left Bloomington for ber home, last week. She is a charming, accomplished young lady, and the many friends she made while here parted with her regretfully. Some time ago John W. Bair of Indianapolis secured a judgment, in Monroe circuit court, against Wm. C. Lytton, of Bean Blossom tp,, for malicious prosecution, in the sum of $1,000. The case was carried to the supreme court, and the verdict was recently affirmed. Moses F. Dunn of Bedford was in town on Thursday, and deeded to tbe University Trustees
the twenty acres cast ef town some
time ago selected as a site for tbe new University building. The lo
cation is a beautiful one, and the immediate neighborhood is rapidly, building up.
A party of Delaware county
gentlemen took supper at the Or
chard House, on Wednesday even
ing last, while on their way from
Ellettsville south. They bad been examining quarries in this county, preparatory to letting contracts for the building of a cour t house in
Muncie. The party comprised the following prominent gentlemen : It, J. Monks. Judge of circuit court;

As an accommodation train on the Air Line railroad, (a branch of
the L. N. A. & C.) was nearing
Indianapolis last Thursday morn
ing at 10:30 o'clock, a bridge over
White River, eight miles from the
city gave way, and all the coaches
fell into the river, which is here
some twenty feet beneath the bridge
and the water eight or ten feet in depth. The accident in all particulars is a counterpart of the Blue River disaster, even to the number
of killed. The engine and tender
got over the break before the train
dropped in, and ths rear coach
stood at an angle on the abutment as at Blue River ; .five of the men were burned in the cars as at Blue River, and no women were killed. The passengers in the rear car, some twenty in number, walked out with the conductor, as at Blue River, and the train burned as rapidly and totally. Tbe engineer had gone into the baggage car to get a drink of water, leaving the fireman to ruu the engine, and thus lost bis
life. Bridge carpenters were at
work at the time of the disaster, and one of them stated afterward
that bis belief was thr.t ' tbe acci
dent was caused by the threads of
the rods pulling through the burrs,
and that tbe cords were not sufficiently sound.'
Followiug is a list of persons killed by the accident, so far as known, although there are grounds
for the belief that there are others i John H. Brewer, engineer. Aged thirty-two. His a wife and six children living at Lafayette.
J. J5. Kicketts, osggage-master. ioung man, need nineteen or twenty, and lived

The chair factory has been
shipping some very large orders during tbe past week, and the out
look for business is flattering. On Wednesday evening last, at the residence of Moses Kahn, a pleasant party was given to a num
ber of the friends of Miss Carrie
Strause of Cincinnati, who for
some time past ha3 been a guest of
Moses Kahu and wife. With such hospitable people as the Kahns, the guests of course enjoyed the occasion to the fullest extent. January 1884 has left an unsurpassed record of horrors. Among them is the burning of thirty women in an Illinois convent; the loss of seventy lives by the wreck
of the City of Columbus, the loss
of fifty-seven lives by fire and ex
plosion in a Colorado mine, while
there were railroad accidents with
out number, in which from six to
sixteen lives were lost in each case tbe most recent on our Monon line. What will February bring forth? On Wednesday afternoon lBt, a colored woman named Heleford was crossing a field near Mr. Garrison's residence, south of town, when she was accosted by two men
who demanded her money. She
denied having money, bttt one of
the men told her that "a woman that works as hard as you do always has money," and then struck her, knocking her down. Her assailant then took $15 from her, and his partner intimidated ber with a
revolver. She did not know the
men, but they evidently knew her. Bloomington is fast becoming a city of the first class.
Fred. Douglastj the political leader of the colored people of this country, has been married, recently, to his private Secretary, a white
woman, Miss Pitts. She is said to be 37 and Douglass 70 years old. A colored woman as Douglass' wife, would have been treated with respect, as he has been a champion of his race and a bitter opponent of miscegenation, but a white woman in that position at Washington will be as squarely snubbed as she would be in the capital of Modroe county. A son-in-law of Ki. Dedkard was working at an edging saw, in
his mil), fourteen miles east of
town, one day last week, when he fed his right hand to the saw, Cutting it off just behind the knuckles. Dr. Ja D. Maxwell, jr. went over into Brown co. td give the man
surgical attention.
