Horseocide !
A singular accident happened on south Walnut street hist Wed nesday. Helton and Wall. Pauley were driving to Bloomington with a two horso team attached to an empty wagon, when they saw about a hundred feet away Jos. Stewart driving two horses and an empty wagon, and going south on his way to Capt. Mathers' farm, upon which he is u tenant. Suddenly Pauley's team became unmanageable and dashed down the road and into Stewart's team. The four horses were soon playing circus among each other, so badly mixed up that the cyo could not follow their movements. When the dust cleared away it was found that a fine bay horse belonging to Stewart was fatally injured and unable to rise, and it died in a few minutes afterwards. Stewart's wagon was badly demoralized, the tongue being broken, a front wheel crushed, and Stewart received some slight contusions from being thrown out as the teams came together. Garrison Pauley declared himself anxious to act fairly in the matter and solicited Jas. Ryan, Wm. Rice and Jot. Rogers to act as a com mitt eo to assess damages. Thoy placed the repairs on the wagon at 85, and Pauley offered Stewart the choice of one of his farm horses to take the place of the animal killed. Killed Himself. He Wasj. Insanely Jealous. Joseph Imhoff, one of the men who was employed at the Hunter quarry to run a channeler, was found dead in his home on Thursday morning. Imhoff was married and had a daughter aged nine j'ears. It seems that Imhoff and his wife had been having considerable discord in the past year or two, and on Monday previous she had taken her child gone to the vicinity of where her parents reside, o'clock Imhoff's brother and had Bedford At S found a note under tho steam guage of the channeling machine that was operated by deceased, which read: "John, look for mo at home. I can't stand the trouble. Good bye, brother." In company with several others the brother hurried to the house where they found Imhoff lying on the floor, dead. A breech -loading No. 12 shot gun bad done the work. He had only Eis pants nd socks on his hotly. A gaping wound in thd . left side under the heart, told the story. A note .addressed "to friends" and found in an. adjoining room, read as follows: "Now, friends, I am going to take my own life. I've got moro trouble than I can Carry. Yon will hnd 50 in my pocket bowk. I don t care where you bury me: I have been mur dered by degrees, but this will be the last time. An ordinance has been passed by the city council, providing vot ing places as follows: The north precinct of the 2d ward to vote at the houso of S. K. Rhorer, east 7th street, occupied by Ned Taylor: the east precinct of the 3d ward being changed from the spoke factory ware room to S. C. Curry's carpenter shop, east 4th street, and the west precinct of the 8d ward to the new store of John Alexander, south Walnut street. The council appointed the following election inspectors: south precinct, hrst ward; Ira C. Batman. North precinct, first ward, Wm. H. Adams. South precinct, second ward, John F. May. North precinct, second ward, A. T. Massey. East precinct, third ward, bamuel McWylio. West precinct, third ward, W. A. FuJwider. A man named Henry sued Dr. Rice Harris of Lllettsville for damages said to have been incur red by the setting of a broken collar bone. Tho case was hotly contested in circuit court last week and a jury drought in a verdict for Dr. Harris. It will be a difficult matter to secure surgical aid of a desirable haracler in the near future if a Doctor must stand a $2,000 suit every time he docs ten dollars' worth of surgical work. Tho "Acron," Wells & Hall's model restaurant in the new Allen Block, is fast forging ahead into popularity. Everything connected with tho "Acorn" is so noat, clean and cosy that the patrons of the house are full of its praise. The tables are crowded each day by people who appreciate a good thing, and on Sunday the capacity of the dining room is taxed to accommodate the people who go thero for their dinner. It will pay you to try it, if you have not already done so. Have you seen Bindley s of wall paper ? It is the most extensive one ever exhibited here occupies the full length of the store room, up-stnirs.

Thomas Langley will become an honest granger, having recently purchased 32 acres of land out near Dnlan, north of town. Charley Mobley, the "Geldon Rule" man will not leave his quarters beforo May, at which time it is proposed to erect a handsome two -story block on the site. The I.

McIIavs, ex-nost- ; i!idjt'r of Grconcastle, was visitiing his daughter, Mrs. .Piv. Buskirk, last week, lhe Democrats came near failing to set Mr. Hays aside, as every patron of the office was his friend. S. V. Harding, the organ man, secured judgment in circuit court against Crawford Johnson for $75. The maker of the note (Johnson) is a minor, but his mother had endorsed it.

E. of the Seventeenth district, Indiana, will meet in convention at Worthington, Greene county, March 29-31. The opening session will be on Thursday evening at 7:30, closing session Saturday evening. Wm. Hill and Annie Hood were married Thursday night. The handsome groom and the gracious bride are extremely popular in their own exclusive sett. No cards. A free carrier system would be an outrage upon mauy who go to tho postoffice eight times each day, the clerks think, and who hav e no correspondence and no reason to believe that thev ever will have. Tho Monon management contemplate tho erection of a water tank north of town, so that locomotives will nat be compelled to go south to. tho. yards for .water, when switching at the quarries in the Hunter district. Iu the Shnull vs. McPheeters suit a decision was given in favor of Chas. H. McPheeters, whose place of business it is alleged was closed by tho wholesale grocery farm on attachment proceedings. It is quite probable uow tha Schnull & Co. may have an opportunity to defend a damage suit, glowing out of this proceeding. People will pass a yard where a half-dozen hens are clucking with broods of downy chicks follewing them and give them no attention, but place the chicks in a show window and the place will be crowded from morning till night by interested sight-seers. Paoli News: Mrs, Mariah H. Buskirk, who had been visiting her son, Thos. B. Buskirk, left here Friday for a short visit to relatives and friends in Bedford. From Bedford she will go to Bleoniiugton and' then to her son's Geo. A. Buskirk, at Indianapolis, and thence home at Anderson. A dispatch from Bedford says : The Rev. Mr. Telfer of Bloomingington, who has been conducting a series of meetings at the Methodist Episcepal church, has been favored with marvelous success. Conversions are frequent and between one nd two hundred additions have been received into the church on probation. The meetings are indetiuitly continued. Clergy from other cities are assisting iu the work. The young people spent an enjoyable eveniug at tho home of Mr. and Mrs. Crutchor, south College Avenue, Thursday even, ing.

Carl Breeden, Leon Whotsell, Bert Gregory, Hampton Durand, Leu. Field, .Jesse Field, Earl Showers, Clarence Lowder, Win. Sutphin, Rodney Brandon. Buy a whole lot of stamps and run the postoffice receipts up so we mny have the benefit of freo delivery. Then your duns will bo brought to the front doors. But come to think of it that would create double trouble. A busi uoss man was telling the Progress recently about a man in the second ward who got on his ear in a frightful way. because ho had sent him a statement of account by mail. Now if it should bo delivered at the front door this one idead ass might buret u blood-vessel in his rage.

Beeves, who for a number of years has been a city policeman, tendered his resignation to the city council on Tuesday night of last week, and it was accepted. The milliners are displaying their new styles in bonnets, and there is also a great rivalry in the matter of securing the prettiest girls for trimmers. Will go around and pass judgment 011 'em as soon as wc get time. Henry Deming claims that three men robbed "him of $7.60 one night last week, back of Cron's stable, in the 1st ward, and right under the shadow of Fairview school house. The money had not been refunded nt latest advices. Senator Fulk is a public spir ited citizen, and has done his quota toward the improvement of the town.

There is absolutely not a hammer falling in the Ohio Falls car-works at Jeffersonville, and the- engines have lcen white-load-ed, as if laid up for an indefinite period. Grover Cleveland could have given Breckenridge some points if he had called on him, and thus averted so much publicity, for Grover had trouble, you will remember, with Maria and the kid. There is a young lady in Bloomington who requires that young gentlemen callers must don spectacles before coming into her presence in the parlor she is too modest to be gazed at with the naked eye. vvnat became oi those men who were trimming trees in the court house yard' last fall, and whe took orders for the trimmers at $4 eacn. iney collected no money, nave sent no machines, nor have they Queer, isn't it been hoard from.
