!! AO V ASCII, 1 fear There can he shown to be more real substantial value ia eveiy class 'of Bioomingtan real property at its ricea now than can be shown in any otber city of its population in the State of Indiana,and we exempt none. The ruling prices of property in this city are very reasonable, the values are real, without the semblance of any thing like inflation ; and predicated upon a basis of present prosperity unsurpassed by any city in the land. But saen who hny property as an investment look largely into the future, and from that view ot the property in the city we can safely challenge an examination and investigation for comparison, with any city in the Ohio Valley, certain that nowhere

in this broad land can there be

found another city in which the prospects for the future are in ev-

.ery particular upon so substantial a

.basis and so promising.

Jackson Shively, a former, on

.pair of gloves under the rope around

was about fifty-eight years of age. It is said that domestic troubles led him to commit the deed. mi nm-n

This year Easter came on the

10th of April, the same date being

repeated only once more daring this century 189S. Next year it comes

on April 1. The earliest date on

which Easter can come is March 22,

and this has taken place only once

in this eentnrv. in 1818. and will

not again till the year 2000. It came on the latest date possible last year, April 25. This date has been represented bat once ia this century, and will net be again till 1943.

Wichita's Basted (t) Boom. Ed. Progress : I have been read

ing an article recently pumuneu,

wbich.to say the least, misleading

to those who are not fully acquainted with the "Peerless Prim-ess of

the Plains," as Wichita is called.

Thu article in Question states tbat

S m

that kfitlnm has drooped out ot

Wichita, and has caught several

parties in Blooniington. Now the

tacts are, briefly stateti, tnai w icu-

ita never was more promising ana prosperous than she is to-day. There are more dwellings in course

of erection at Wichita by half than

there are houses all told m Bloom

ington. There are more manufactories there than in any new town west of the Mississippi river. There

is a better class of business houses and dwellings there than there is in any other city of the same age in the United States. Her educational institutions are more numer

ous and are more heavily endowed than any city of the same size in the

world, and in tact an me advan

tages, both social and business, mat go to make a great city, are enjoyed

by Wichita.

JL is a noteworthy tacr, ana an

undisputed one, that no man has ever bought property in Wichita at

its market value, ana lost a aouar

on it. Does this look like a "bust

ed boom V

There is something strange in tue

fact that a man who haa been in

Wichita, and has seen her match

less development, should, after com

ing home,allow himself to be scared

by those who have never yet set . - - . it :l Tl -

tneir leer, on nansas bum. have been many thousands of dollars made by Bloomington parties oa the advance in Wichita real estate, and some of the results of these investments are beginning to show themselves here, in the shape of new business blocks, and elegant dwelling?. When these objectors can go and dip the Pacific ocean dry with a teaspoon, run the Mississippi river op bill, harness a cyclone, orfrtde a thunderbolt, it will be a good time

for them to speak harshly of Wichita. In the meantime the "Peerless Princess of the Plains" booms as she never boomed before, and we don't like to have people make

faces at us simply because we ve got our fingers in the pie and tbey haven't. One Who'b Bees There. The editor of the New York Sun, Mr. Charles A Dana., sees nothing bat defeat for the demo

Gullibility. The wild phantoms and shrieking cries of a worlhless humbug can make money by imposing upon the credulity and ignorance of an honest public, and the supply of this species of work seems more thin an adequate drmnnd. The enunciation of facts facts that have stood crucial te9ts facts proven by brain foice and tangible evidence, should sati.fy all laudable enterprises ; but the execrable practice of teaching false ideas and doctrines for self-ggrandir.empnt is truly reprehensible and should be scorned by all classes. When one house tolls you that Iodide of Potash is a poison simply because their opponents use it, and because they are pandering to your ignorance, as they suppose, you should look upon all such as arrant frauds and their remedies as unworthy public confidence, and if those who mKo such assertions do not know bettor, they are a set of unenviable ignoramuses.

Bedford Democrat: Father M.

Bogeman delivered his interesting

lectore,entilled "Religion ana Art,"

to a very fair audience in toe up-

era House, last Sunday afternoon.

It was a great treat to those who

read history, and his conception of

the subject shows that he is well posted on the subject, and his dlivery was easy. Taking the lecture first to last, while it is rich with

facts, the language is both flowery and beautiful. Father Bogeman will make his mark in the world,

for a man so young, possessing so much ability, with the knowlege acquired by study, cannot help but be a brilliant orator.

poverty that has for its cause drank

Immigrants are arriving at

move out, the city could be renopu

At the present rate of arrival tbe immigrants could populate a city the bum of Cincinnati in three months and have 10,000 people to

pare. In five months this tide of immigration could repeople thei whole State ot Florida and have1 more thali 40,000 peepie to spare. The greater part of this great tide flows from Ireland and Italy.

One day this week five ducks were found lying dead at the base of the Washington Monument.

One of them was found cut nearly

in two as if cleaved by a razor. It ia supposed that the early morning being cloudy the ducks lost their

course snd blindly dashed against

tbe monument with such force as to

be killed, and the one cut in two

struck the platinum point on the monument which cut it in twain. The ornithological branch of the Agricultural Department has on re

cord numerous instances of birds killed by dashing against lighthouses, and has in its museum many rare species of birds killed in that way and forwarded by the lighthouse keepers to the Department, but the above is the first known instance of birds or fowls being killed

by dashing against the monument.

Who Rules Tbla Country 1 It is said that 6,400 of tbe saloonkeepers in New York City arc exconvicts. The average American citizen cannot believe that those 6,400 ex-con victn control the national policy ot this great Republic, yet it is a fact all the same. It is done in this way : Those 6,400 reconvicts control t he saloon influence of the city. The saloon influence controls the politics of the State of New York. The State of New York can dictate who shall be President of the United Stated, and the national policy ot both old parlies, for neither parly can be successful without the vote of New York State. So it would seem that a handful of cx-convicts ''hold the ribbons" and guide our great car of State; and "t tie driving is the driving of Jehu, for he driveth furiously." How long a country can sustain political life from such a fountainheSnear future will decide. We drop tbe suggestion however. How would it do to have Ihe intelligence aud the virtue of this country dictate tue politic for an intelligent and virtuous people, rather than the saloons and the exconvicts? Tbe experiment might be worth tryiug.
