to meet the requirements ot bis

Whet Yotr Loan Money, it is seldom you can collect the interest, 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 for a big interest on your investment. Rogers & Woolley.

Dtixt. though it may be with the average denier at this season of the year, Charley Mobley does a good business all the year round, He 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 fee a well assorted stock of goods, suited to both sexes, and to town and country trade, go to the "Golden Rule." "It cakxqt be excelled," is the verdict of every one who goes to McGee's fashionable emporium for clothing. Ben McGee has been in Bloomington a life-time and he never cut or made a euit or garment for a man wl-.o did not pat

ronize him again. He is one of

the most artistic and painstaking cotters in the State, and understanding all the details, be sees that suits 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 6tb

street and College Avenue, and special efforts are directed toward keeping the choicest coffees, teas,

sugars, and other like supplies.

The stock of ulassware 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

ia the county trade with him.

You can get 8 gems for f 1 at Barnes Gallery. The Orchard House improves with age. There is no quieter hotel in the town. The dining-room is kept scrupulously clean, the table is well served, and the appointments equal to those of any hotel in Southern Indiana. Btkiiatesa for Ladies; The opportunities for ladies to find employment that is both suitable and remunerative are limited ; their pay is usually poor as compared with the salaries paid to men in same lines of occupation. But

there are some very noted exceptions;

journalism, the drams, music and platform offer eoital advantages to men and wom

en, and there is one occupation in which woman are more successful than men, and

that is in the managoment of agencies.

In this line The Queen City Suspender Coropaey, of Cincinnati, O., are offering inducements to ladies that We think ought

to attract attention, i hoy are now manfacturins and intronncine- their new

goods are manufactured by ladies who

have made the wants -'of ladies and cliil

dren a study, and they ask us to refer them to some reliable and energetic young ladv to introduce them in this county, and we certainly think that an earnest solicitation in every household would

meet with a ready response, and that

determined woman could make a hand

some salary, and have an exclusive agen

in need of employment to seno the company her name and address, and mention tbis paper. Addrew Queen City Suspender Company, Nm 177 and 179 Main Street, Ciuvinnti, Oliio-

Our splendid crops will induce hundreds to build who could not do so otherwise. Francis McKinley, one of the old settlers of Monroe county, died

at his residence northeast of town, on Tuesday of last week. He was in his 84th year. Jos. N, Payne has bought the old brick house just north of the Seminary property on North College Avenue, for $1,600. It was

The Democratic Township Con vention met in Bloomington on Friday afternoon, aad after E. K. Mil-

leu had called the meeti ng to order and suggested J. F. Pittman for Chairman, the wheels begun to "go

round." A committee of five was appointed to select delegates, as follows : E. K. Millen, Jno.McGee, J.K. Anderson; Joseph Payne and Frank Whisuaud. The committee retired, and loud calls were made for Cal. Worrall, Jack Randolph and Jas. A. Atkinson; These gentlemen did not respond) and a holy calm and a cloud of cigar smoke settled upon the elect, as they awaited the coming of the committee, which finally appeared, and reported as delegates : David Delap, Jno. L. Bran nam, Geo. B. Rader, Johu Stock well, E. P. Adams, D. R. Wylie, Thomas Payne, D. W. Meadows, Malachl Mullen, Frank M. Rogers. After selecting a township executive committee of five, the convention, which was conspicuous prici pally for the number of gentlemen who were smoking cheap j cigars, adjourned, the Chairman j

said sine die supposed to be the Latin for Salt River. The point is made by advanc

ed thinkers that if cholera was as common as consumption, it would attract as little notice : its rare appearance and mysterious work cause people to regard it with fear. Consumption is more destructive than cholera, and is always with us, killing annually its tens of thousands. During the past three weeks, in Monroe county, there have been eight or teu deaths from consumption alone. Physicians are fast being converted to the theory that consumption is contagious contact, hrcathtnir the air in a onvisiimnlivp'a

sure means of communicating this

dread disease.

Judge Wilson came to town

Gosport had the largest crowd ever seen there, and Unionville is much flattered. On the 21st the Rogers family will hold their re union. The Ketcham's Spring O.S.

James Sylvester, an old citisen of Clear Creek tp., died one day last week in his 80th year. A Blaine & Logan flag pole is to be erected at Mt.Tabor. This,

in Bean, is bearding the lion In his den. No need of going to the northern portion of the State for cool breezes too much of that kind has been apportioned to us during the past week. Jack Corman, a well-known citizen of the southern part of Monroe county was stricken with appoplexy on Wednesday evening last, dying on Thursday morning. Frank Hunter has returned from Washington City, where he spent his vacation with his brother Joseph, who is now conducting a large and successful pension agency, employing twelve clerks. George Hunter is meeting with the most flattering success in the introduction of his spark arrester. It has been adopted by the Eastern Illinois railway company, and the Wabash Co. U testing it. Mrs. Fannie Young, accompanied by her son John, and her daughter, Miss Belle, left Bloomington one day last week for Columbia, Kansas, where the family

intend to locate.

The trial of Warren Foster for

killing James Tyler, more commonly known as "Big Jim Tyler," at Orleans, took place in that town Mouday a week before Judge Wilson. After a careful examination of a number of witnesses by Joseph Henley, on the part of the State, and Tom Buskirk for defendant, Judge Wilson discharged Foster, sayiug he regarded it is a clear tiasfe of justifiable self-defence. W. F. Browning attended both of the Old Settler Meetiugs, last Thursday, and then took train for Bedford in the evening and listened

to Calkins, the next Governer of

Indiana. During a thunder storm last week the dwelling of Abe Weimer, five miles west of Harrodsburg, was struck by lightning. The building was considerably damaged and set on fire, but the fire was extinguished. The bolt, in its passage through the sitting room, tore a cabinet organ to pieces and knocked a daughter of Mr. Weimer unconscious. Other members of the family were severely shocked. The 4th of September will soon be here and students will hail the day with joy; as they ban then" get

A stranger to the town made the assertion, one day last week, that he had never seen a place as small as Bloomington, with as many trausfer wagons; carts, etc. There is something suggestive of the business done in Bloomington, in this. There are six two-horse transfer wagons alone in constant service on the streets, and it is often a difficult matter to secure one when needed. At the Blue Hole Quarry, west of Bedford, Friday, two men were killed. A heavy stone had been channclcd,and had to be removed in order to give room for other work; The chains were hitched to it, and, in lifting, the boom of the derrick broke, the pieces striking Peter Lanson aud John Zeicht, killing them almost instantly.
