The bankers that failed in In-
diaHapolis had over 82,000,000 int deposits, which money i bow locked up indefinite-
lyperkap entirely lost. Now suppose those depositors hod bought tome of the choice lots we offer fbr sale in Blooming.
ton don't yoa know that the failure of
the banks would have had ne effect on them? Of course yon do. There ia no investment that is as Merely and as potiHwtiy safe aa real estate it can't be stolen, and H can't be absorbed by a rascally private banker. If you are wise you will call on us at once, and we will give you a security that will pay you a big interest, and that cannot he stolen. Come and see us it won't cost you a cent to in v eati gate and you are not compelled to buy. L.D. ROGERS, FRANK WOOLLEY, Keal Estate Agents. -Henry Hewsoo, who has built up aa enviable reputation as a boot maker, is better prepared than ever to meet the requirements of his customers. He has a choice stock of first-class ready-made boots and shoes for all ages and sexes, and sells at a close margin. The Orchard House improves with age. There is no quieter hotel in the town. The dining-room is kept scrupulously clean, the table is wall served, and the appointments equal to those of any hotel in Southern Indiana. When You Loan Monet, it is seldom you can collect the in
terest, let alone the principal, when due. Better invest your money in
the three nice building lots we can
sell you, and build cheap houses
which will rent tor a big interest on your investment. Rogers & Woolley.
Dtru. though it may be with the
average dealer at this season of the
year, Charley Mobley does a good
business all the year round. Me has served a lifetime apprenticeship
at the business, and is not a
"Spring and Fall" Merchant only. He understands the requirements
of all seasons of the year, and so'
has a generous and satisfactory trade-at the season of the year when
some men are doing comparatively
nothing. If you want to .see a well assorted stock of goods, suited
to both sexes, and to town and country trade, go to the "Golden Rule."
Tt knot be excelled." is the
verdict of every one who goes to McGee's fashionable emnorinm for
clothing. Ben. McGee has been in
Bioomington a life-time and be never cut or made a suit or garment for a man wl.o did not patronise him again. He is one of the mnsfc artistic nfid nainstakiner
cutters in the State, and understand
ing all the details, be sees that suit are made up properly. Leave
your measure.
The advice given from week
to week by the Progress is being heeded, as the crowds of customers that throng Hemp Wilson's Provision Store would indicate. The
store is conveniently located in
"Progress Block," corner of. 6th street and College Avenue, and special efforts are directed toward
keeping the choicest coffees, teas, sugars, and other like supplies. The stock of Glassware and Queens-
ware is well selected and is sold at
a small profit. The best butter can always be procured at Wilson's, as some of the best butter makers
in. the county trade with him.

The Democrats are talking of
John Riley as a candidate for Sheriff. The town ring will get in their work if possible. This, above all others, (as the defendant whispered in the ears of ths jurymen) is a time when 'us fellers' should stand by each other. The 237th asteriod was recently discovered. But it is difficult to see what use the things are. They can't vote. Out West, when a girl wants a male admirer" to go borne she takes down her back hair. When she wants him to stay home, she takes out her teeth. Dave Taylor, now a citizen of Terre Haute, has been giving aid and comfort to the Democratic party, by adding to its numbers a juvenile Democrat. One of the speakers in a Democratic meeting in Sullivan, Ind., referred to. Grover Cleveland as "the ladies' candidate 1" Well,well, I do declare. A vote of ladies on a train going to Milwaukee gave Cleveland a majority. Blaine, you know, ia an old married fellow, and Cleveland is a bachelor the giddy old thing. Some watcb-menders can do a dollar's worth of repairing on a watch by simply blowing in it but the owner of the watch must retire and stay away for a few days,
so as to give the mender ample time
to blow in the watch, fur he may!
have to blow into it twice before a "broken hair-spring" is repaired.
It is said to be a safe plan on
the approach of a thunder-storm to .
close doors and windows, that there
be no current of hot air arising from
the building to attract ths electricity. Several instances have occured with
in the past few weeks of persons killed by lightning on the threshold of their own homes, or within
an open door, when, if they had re
mained indoors, they would have
escaped.
The best speech John B. East
ever made, was the one delivered by him in Shelby ville, Ind., in '82,
when he Was canvassing the State
for the prohibitionists, in which he held up Daniel V. Vonrhees between his left thumb and forefinger,
while he deliberately picked the meat off Voorhees' bones. Daniel has never forgiven John for that piece of cool cruelty, and) it is believed, was instrumental in securing East's defeat when he was A candidate for Joint Representative.
Mr. R. Z. Lockridge, of Grefitt-
castle, recently sold 400 head of cattle, averaging over 1600 pounds,

There are many queer people
in the world. Among these is the
very large class that have a con
suming and insatiable desire for
honorary offices positions in which the only compensation is the title. Many of them will lose sleep for a
week and travel hundreds of miles
for the brief glory of seeing their
names (usually spelled wrong) in
the newspapers. Takes all kinds of people, though, to bring up the
average.
Benton Jones, a convict in the Southern prison, was seriously in
jured at that institution on Friday a
week. His clothing was caught in
the belting of a machine and he was
thrown violently to the ground,sustaining a fracture of the right arm. He was also injured internally, but
it is not thought fatally. Blackberries are scarce and re tail at 30c. per gallon.
People who live on or very
near the public square, are not to be envied during the next three
months.
The pastors of the colored

The Courier is going to keep its "hands off" till after the election. It says : "The saloons may now rest easy until after the campaign." The Gosport Old Settlers's Meeting will be held on the 7th inst., Thursday. The managers are preparing for an immense gathering of the people. A Demo-Republican campaign stand will be erected in the southwest corner of the court house campus, with a sufficient number of seats to accommodate six or eight hundred people. Drury Hodges took train for Maryville, Mo., on Friday night last, where he now resides. He will read the Progress during the campaign. The little children, that have been cared for in so motherly and unselfish a manner by Miss McCalla, in the past, will be gratified to know that she has been induced to reconsider her determination to resign the superintend ency of the Bioomington Graded Schools. W. B. Smith has gone to Missouri to see that girl. Wra Bell went to Chicago with George Williams. Miss Minnie Baldridge if visiting relations in Brooklyn.N.Y. Robert Leffler and neice have gone

Hon. Cassius M. Clay, of
Kentucky, a cousin of the late
Henry Clay, has made up his mind to support Blaine and Logan. Clay is one of the big Democrats of Kentucky. H. J. Nichols &. Son, the con

The town of Sclma, Ala., claims
to have the most wonderful artesian
well in the world; and it would seem
with good reason. The remarkable
feature in the case is that two separate streams of water, of entirely
different properties flow from this
well. The singular effect in.quest
ion is produced, it seems, by the simple insertion of a two-inch pipe
within a four-inch tube The larg
er pipe descends to a depth of some
four hundred feet, the water having no mineral qualities or character, and being very cold ; the inner pipe
descends seven hundred feet : the
water is strongly impregnated with sulphur and iron, and quite warm.
It is generally conceded that
there are circumstances under which
killing is not murder We believe however, that it has never been
judicially determined whether the
killing of the man who takes votes for Presidential candidates on rail
road trains belongs to this class of
homicides. But unless this wicked man either stops traveling for the present or desists from his evil
practices, we shall expect before
very long to bear of bis death After voting for Blaine or Cleve
land seven or eight hundred times it would not be wonderful if some
commercial drummer should lay violent bands upon the man with
the hat, or one of his accomplices. In that case the verdict of a jury
probably would be excusable homicide under justifiable excitement,

-Four fine mantels have recently been placed in the new house in process of construction by John Waldron,opposite his residence,and to be occupied by his Bon-in-law, Wm, Blair. Two of these mantels are of Tennessee marble, and two are of the fine limestone from the Dunn quarry, east of Bioomington. Persons who are unprejudiced, invariably express a preference for mantels made of our home product. The Dunn quarry stone takes a high polishjhas a fine grain, is of a beautiful mottled gray color, and blends with the delicate, artistic furniture now so popular. This stone, in square blocks, is shipped to Peoria, Ills., where it is dressed and manufactured into mantels, table-tops, etc., and is in great and growing demand. Read the advertisement directed to wood cutting contractors, in this
paper. One of the most responsible stone companies in the county

Ed. Progress: Permit me to call the attention of the "authorities" to the fact that many of our business men on the public square are sometimes unable to understand the requests of customers, in consequence of the yelling of .the baseball hoodlums in the court house yard. There are fields and commons outside the business limits, and to such places these young ruffians should be compelled to resort, if they must indulge in their yells and loud oaths. Also, let me direct attention to the great holes in the pavemerJts, between the Fee corner and the postoffice.
