It is quite probable that Dr. Coulter will accept the Presidency of Lake Forest University, near Chicago. The salary paid there is much greater than that paid at I. U., and then the advantages connected with residing in a suburg of Chicago are beyond question.

The paper was followed by a lively discussion, in which many things of interest to stone men were developed. The annual election of officers was also held. Dr. McGee was chosen one of tbe executive committee. The whole closed with a banquet at the Columbia club and a carriage ride about the city. The association is in a flourishing condition and has a membership of about 100, with prospects of a large increase during the coming year. Paoli Republican: ."Presiding Elder Zaring, of Bloomington, held quarterly meeting services at Ames Saturday and Sunday. Sunday evening he preached a magnificent sermon at this place from the text, "Ye are the salt of the earth." Speaking of the saddle and harness factory for Bloomington, the Paoli Republican says: "The new firm will consist of B. F. Lingle and his sons, J. E. and Charles Lingle. The enterprise will be managed by B. M. Lingle who will divide his time between the Bloomington business and the business at this place. Their stores at Paoli and Salem will continue to run, full blast, as of old. We are pleased to note the prosperity which enables' these gentlemen to so extend their business operations."

Mrs. Wilson, Brazil, who thought her husband dead, applied for a widow's pension. She received word from the department that her husband was still living and was drawing a pension.

The son of Peter Ballenger, who was taken to Terrc Haute to have the madstone applied is not believed to have been bitten by a rabid dog, as the mad-stone did not adhere.

If the new judicial circuit bill becomes a law it will work quite a hardship upon litigants and witnesses who in many cases may bo compelled to go overland to Nashville, as the bill throws Brown, Monroe and Owen into one circuit. It will also leave out John Edmondson, the recently elected Republican prosecutor. The result will be 1o make the judicial district hopelessly Democratic, with Brown county's 800 majority, and two or three hundred in "sweet" Owen. Mitchell Commercial: J. D. Moore and W. O. Tanksley returned from Enterprise, Florida, the latter part of last week. It was unusually cold down there, so that the climate was of no special benefit to them.
