Mr. Golliver's Injuries.
The Greenoastle Banner-Times speaking of the aooident to Mr. P. O. Oolliver says:
Drs. Lammers and Evane were summoned and arrived shortly. They found Mr. Oolliver'e injuries so severe that his relatives were immediately summoned by telegraph. His left oollar bone is badly broken, and when he was undressed the ragged edge of the bone was protruding through the flesh. Blood llowed from the left ear all night, and there is a severe concassion of the brain. A slight bruiee was noticed on the left forehead. The physicians could not discover any injury to the side and state it will take a day or two to tell whether or not the accident will result fatally. Mr. Oolliver was nnoonscious nearly all night, and this morning was but little better.
The drop taken by the injured man was a distance of about ten feet. It is thought that he must have struck the manger partition or a small door in kifi rapid decent, causing the terrible injury to his shoulder. He was absent from his house nearly half an hour before he was found, and it is probable that he lay there that long before dibcovered, as he must have visited the loft the first place. Mr. Colliver is one of the best acquainted men in the county, very populawith all olasses and has a very promising future. His many friends are hoping for the best and are rendering all the assistance in their power.
The latest reports from the injured man's bedside are that he is a trifle better. He regained partial possession of his faoulties early this morning, and in answer to the question could give no explanation of the accident and could not even remember having gone to the barn. He oomplained of suffering great puin and misery, and was given an anaesthetic about 9 o'clock, and is now sleeping easily. His friends are "more hopeful this afternoon. The bleeding from the ear ceased early this morning.
At 2:15 o'olock this afternoon a reporter called at the house and his brother pronounced Mr. Oolliver much better. This will be good newB to his manv friends.
Eggs Grow in Frankfort.
John Isgrigg brought an egg into this office to-day that is certainly acuri osity. While working around his ice house he found a nest of them, and upon picking one of them up he discovered the curious fact that it had sprouted, and was growing the roots being purple, and something like those found on a potato. The one now at this office has a handful of roots that were attached to it, and presents a decidedly queer appearance. The meat of the egg is hard, yet yields lo pressure, as rubber does. Tift shell is entirely gone. We shall not attempt to explain how it all happened, or what caused the egg to sprout and grow. The fact remains that it has, and the egg is here to show for itself.— Frankfort Crescent.
We presume tbe egg in question might properly be designated as "egg plant."
.Notice.
The ladies of St. John's. Episcopal church will give a racial at the residence of V. Q. Irwin Saturday evening, Oct. 28, from 5 to 8 o'clook. Admittance 15 cents. Turkey, etc. All are cordially invited to attend. 10-28.
A Quaint Superstition.
At race tracks persons desiring- to bet 011 the result frequently manage to touch the hump of a hunchback, believing that this will bring good luck. According to the beliefs of ancient Arabians and Germans, hunchbacks were the pets of fairies. The latter frequently rcmovod or increased the humps, and hunohbacks who had thus been treated by the fairies were supposed to possess some mystic power. They were supposed to bring good luck, and tliis might be imparted to person who came into contact with the humps the fairies had given them.
Algerian Klders.
The donker in Algeria rarely has a saddle. lie has a pad very similar to the pad on which the bespangled queens of the sawdust ring dance their short hour to delighted uo3's and rustics. The pad has no stirrups and is so wide as to make a seat on it extremely- tiring to the uninitiated. The Arab sits astride or sidewise, and as the pad is rarely girthed, or at best by a slender rope, it is like walking a tight rope or managing a birch bark canoe to sit on it.
San Francisco Park Policemen. The park policemen of San Francisco use the lariat to stop runaway horses, and all aro experts with the rope. The captain of the Oolden Gate park squad says his men "can stop a horse within a distance of fifty yards, -without the slightest danger to themselves," and he implies, though he. doesn't distinctly say so, without danger to the runaaway or its rider.

SEEMS TO HAVE A PULL.
Otto Gresham SecureB an Office for a Friend That Others Could Not Get. A special from Washington says: Some loud mutterings were Laard in the Chicago delegation to-day over the fact that Otto Gresham had, oh his sole recommendation, secured the appointment of Thomas J. Iioush as Inspector of Customs at Chicago, while tbe Chicago Congressman have labored vainly for months trying to secure the plaoe for one of their constituents. Otto Gresham was in Washington a tew days ago, saw Secretary Carlisle and secured tbe promise of Roush's appointment, which was fulfilled in the bulletin of appointments. An Indiana Democratic Con gressman who has been trying to secure an inspeotorship for the past two months, and was told no later than Saturday that the secretary was not naming any of these appointments, made some sulphuric observations on Otto's "pull" this morning. "It would seem that good taste would induce Secretary Gresham to restrain his relative from trying to control appointments," said the Hoosier, hotly.
A i'fld That Endures.
"The souvenir spoon rage will never die, it seems,'' said a jeweler a few days ago, when he was unpacking a fresh consignment of fantastically shaped spoons and spreading them for public inspection. It is the only fad in jewelry that has ever held out for any length of time. The cause is that there is some sense to it, as the spoons can be used just as well as plain ware. Manufacturers are vieiug with each other in making rare and unique designs and about every subjeot under the sun has been portroyed in silver and gold to furnish a handle. Here's one that a squeamish woman would perhaps hesitate to use," and he showed the reporter a very pretty spoon with the life-like body of a snake for a handle. In tbe inanimate mouth was held the bowl of the spoon, and a pair of jewels gliBten dangerously where tbe eyes belonged. "Spoons," he contined, "are made for about everything nowadays. I have been in the business for years and often times I run across a spoon whose use I have no idea about and if it wasn't labelled properly I would have no idea what to tell my customers it was for.'??

The Deal to be Consummated. It now looks very much as though the Star would be sold to T. E. Soantlin, of Evansville. The agreement has been made, it is said, and Mr. Scantlin will return here Monday to sign the papers and take charge of his purchase. He pays off the claims against the plant and pays Mr. Keeney a cash bonus. It, is rumored that he will likely start a daily paper also but this is hardly probable. The daily field is already pretty well occupied as a former experiment of the Star bears melancholy witness.

Deafness Cannot be Cured. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition ot tbo mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is tbe result, and unless the inflammation can bo taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are .»used by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, tree.

A WAR INCIDENT.
Th* Old Commodore'* Brief Bat Eloquent Epitaph on Hii Only Son. The -recent death of Rear Admiral Melanohthon Smith, U. S. N., recalls an incident of the rebellion which has found Its way Into print before, but which has long been forgotten, says the New York Tribune. It relates to a namesake and relative of the deceased, Commodore J. Smith, for many years chief of the bureau of yards and docks.
The news of the Merrimac's arrival in Hampton Roads and of her first day's fight before she met the Alonitor reached Washington on a Sunday atternoon. The telegram was brief, but explicit. The rebel ironclad was in complete control of the Roads. Messengers were hastily dispatched, summoning the chiefs of bureaus to a council at the navy department. One of these messengers sent in searoh of Commodore Smith found that officer on his way home from church, and he knew that the commodore's only son was first lieutenant of the ill-fated ongress. "Commodre," said the man, "there is bad news from Hampton Roads. The Merrimac has come down from Norfolk, the Minnesota and Roanoke are disabled, the Cumberland sunk, and the Congress is on fire and has surrendered." "Surrendered? The Congress has hauled down her colors?" repeated the commodore. And, as the messenger confirmed his words, "Then my son Joe is dead," said the commodore, simply—and that was all.
There have been longer-winded epitaphs, many of them, but not every father could be so sure of his son's character as to honor his memory before receiving the news of his death with such a tribute as that. "Joe" was indeed dead, as modest and as brave a man as ever drew sword in a good cause. Peace be to him and to those who fell with himl They did their best—tlicy served.
A CENSUS OF INSECTS.
Two Hundred Thousand Specie* Known and Over a Million In Existence. The great majority of persons have no idea of the numerous and singular forms of insects, writes W. J. Fox in the Popular Science Monthly. They are called "bugs" by most people, yet not one-tenth of their number are really bugs. These latter are classed by themselves and are called Hemiptera. Beetles are not bugs, being totally different things, and form what are known as the Caleoptera, which means Bheath-wing, because of the two large plates on the back that cover the true wings, which consist of thin membrane. These covers are called elytra. The butterflies and moths form another one of these orders, being called Lepidoptera, or scale wing, on account of the tiny scales with which the wings are covered.
No doubt many of the readers of this article have noticed the powdery substance which comes off a butterfly or moth on handling it. These are the scales, and should any reader possess a, microscope and place the wing or part of one under it I think he will be repaid for his trouble. The "dragon flies" and "devil's needles" form the order Neuroptera, which means veinwinged. So it is with the files and the bees, wasps and ants, the flies being called Diptera—i. e., two-winged—and the bees, wasps and ants Qyinenoptera, or meinbrane-wing.
It will be probably be said by some that, ants have no wings, but this is only the case with what are called newters or workers, the males and females being provided with wings. The total number of different kinds of insects that are known at present Is over 200,000, of which beetles alone number 120,000—this being about twice as many as all the other known animals together. It is estimated that the actual number of different kinds of insects in the world is over 1,000,000.
