"It caskot be excelled," is tht verdict of every one who goes to McGee'a fashionable emporium for
clothing. JSen McUee has been in Bloomington a life-time and he never eat or made a suit or garment for a man who did not pat

the most artistic and painstaking cutters in the State, and onderstand-
inc all the details, he sees that

Mobley has again brought

new goods before they boy. Charley has some specialities, among
which are laces, gloves, hosiery and

At the term of circuit court
just adjourned, tbe prosecutions for
violations of the liquor law have re

gate loss to the saloon keepers is estimated at Sl,300. The temperance people began a systematic raid upon violators of the law and some eighty indictments were secured. One firm, Sharp & Everman, have shot up shop and quit the business,
and some of tbe others will be compelled to if the temperance people use tbe evidence they possess. All of which goes to prove that the present liquor law is a terror if jt is enforced.

Col. Vince Williams of Bed
ford, was in town last Wednesday,
on business. Williams was a Captain in the 18th, and after the ex
piration of his term of service rais
ed a company for the 145th. He found a number of his comrades
here Mart. Alexander, Ren. C.
Smith, Wall Hight, and others.
He was mustered out of the 18th in
1866, and from that time up to
Wednesday afternoon, had never met his old friend and comrade,
Ren. Smith. While talking, on the street, to the writer, Smith was
seen coming by with a team. Wil
liams accosted Smith and was anx
ious to secure a load or two of
manure. Smith was very sorry he hadn't it, but said Mathers might
supply him. Then noticing Wil-
iara's peculiar voice, he ' sprang
rom the wagon and grasped his
hand in true soldierly style. It is not wonderful that there should be
strong attachment between tbe
brave men who shared their scanty
rations with each other, and together braved the dangers of flood and field.
Last Monday a party of our
town fellows went out to shoot snipes, taking with them . the usu
al lunch a small loaf of bread, a
box of cigars and a case of beer.
One of the boys in wandering about the bottoms came across a
black snake, stiff and apparently
dead. To play a joke on the rett
of the party he took the "dead'' snake to the hack and laid it across
the case of beer which was open under the seat of the wagon. Mean-while the sun came out and the day warmed up. One of the hunters after a while, remarking to
the others what the Governor of
North Carolina said to the Governor of South Carolina, reached down for a bottle of beer. He felt
something queer ia the box, and
raising up the seat there saw tbe
huge black snake squirming and darting its big open mouth in all directions. The sunshine had
warmed it into activity. The thirs
ty hunter gave one jump out of the
hack and yelled "My God ! I've
heard that'snakes are in the stuff
but never saw 'em before!" The
driver seeing the "sarpint" spring toward him, leaped out too, and away went the team, snake, beer bottles, guns and two scared hunt
ers mixing and bouncing from one
end of the wagon to the other. Soon both the follows jumped out, leaving the black snake master of the situation, driver and drinker, too. At length tbe team stopped against a fence, and the party came up, one at a time, and found that the snake had gone. They then turned homeward, and for once i

At the session ot Indiana Conference held in Bloomiqgton last summer, Mr. Browning was elected first Lay Delegate, but owing to. bis imperative duties as clerk of tbe circuit coort, he was unable to meet with tbe conference at its opening.

The Progress wishes him a pleasant trip and a safe return, The Progress has heard only expressions of regret and sympathy with reference to tbe misfortunes of Moses Kahn, the clothier.

A. & C. railway are known as "fog whistles." The artesian well has now reached a depth of 2,100 feet, and while the water has not yet been forced to the surface, still it is rapidly rising, and the belief of those most competent to judge is that it will prove to be all that could be desired. Water taken from the well has been analyzed, and has been shown to have iron, magnesia, salt, and other properties that make it quite valuable mcdiciually.
