Mrs. Jane Hinds, mention of whose dangerous condition from a stroke of paralysis was made in last week's Progress, died on Thursday morning, three dfjrs after she was first stircken. She was the mother of Alvin Hinds, and was aged 65 years. The burial took place at Ellettsville on Saturday. Charley Blake, well known in other years as an engineer in this place, was killed Christmas week by falling into the engine machinery of Rumbarger's saw mill at Dobbin, West Virginia. Blake was the engineer, and being paralyzed slightly could not control himself, and while oiling the machine fell forward and was unable to extricate himself. He was a son-in-law of the late Daniel Hook. The water works reservoir, as was predicted by many of our citizens who saw it, has turned out to be a dismal failure as planned and built by a New York gentleman who shone hero by the name of Starr, and that gentleman has "resigned"' and another engineer has been secured by Mr. Clark, the gentleman who has been supplying the capital. There is a probability now that the work will be done differently under new management, and that everything will be made satisfactory to parties interested. Railroad talk is again filling the air. Bloomington people have been fed on this kind of talk so long that it fails to have an exciting effect. A corps of surveyors are said to be in the northeastern part of the county at present, surveying a line for some purpose, no one knows definitely what. Twice have appropriations been voted for east and west roads and no road has been built. Appro priations have been voted to the Pennsylvania system between here and Gosport. It is certainly wonderful that none of the trunk lines have seen the importance of petition, but it may come in time -a time so long deferred wo fear that many will never live to see it.

"Unless I am greatly mistaken," said a Progress subscriber yesterday, "the coming spring will be a great season for maple sugar making. It is well known to those who have engaged in that business that a good season always follows a winter that furnishes abundance of cold weather. Tho maple sap is always" sweeter after a period of intense frdst,: and furnishes a larger per centage of sugar. Not only that, but the trees yield a larger quantity of sap after a cold winter than they do after a winter that has frequent thaws and periods of warm weather. ' ' You can get Lamps at cost at

The timber of that section was not slaughtered as recklessly as in many other portions of the county, and as a result the people are reaping a nice revenue just now as a reward for their good judgment. "Kenwood," the new addi tion at the head of North College Avenue, is attracting a great deal of attention by reason of its location, and because tho lots lie so desirably. Several lots have been sold in the past few days to people who intend to build immediately, and such of our readers as desire to live in a good neighborhood should make haste to secure lots while they may bo had. Like all additions there are some lots that are more desirable than others, and persons who apply first have a better opportunity to select. Mrs. Susan Bates, mother of H. S.
