Last evening Mayor Handel anil Oilieer Grimes rode out to the disreputable Iron Bridge saloon in order to see what was going on there. When they arrived in the vicinity of the dive it was painfully manifest that something was going on. The place was brilliantly lighted up aud insane laughs and shouts arose as a herd of revelers caroused around the bar of the notorious Jim Stevenson. The otlicers watched the place long enough to see a few glasses of beer passed over the bar and then gobbling up the joyous Jim hurried him oft' to jail. This morning Mayor Handel lined him 810 and costs and sentenced him to twentyfive days on the stone pile in addition.
As the sun rose in liis glory this morning the colored policeman of loose Nibble caine marching down the street in charge of our auburn haired young friend. Mr. Frank Skaggs, the pride of Uoose Nibble. In a few minutes the following atlidavit blossomed on the tree of doom in the Mayor's court: "Edward Martin, being duly sworn upon his oath says that on the 18th day of June, 1S'.)3, in the city of Crawfordsville, Ind,, one Frank Skaggs did then and there unlawfully take and win from one Walter I'arker, a certain article of value, to-wit: live cent, by then and there unlawfully betting and wagering with said Walter I'arker for the said live cents upon a certain game played with cards, to-wit: a game of seven-up."
It appears that the young gentlemen in question had risen with the lark but instead of "singing at Heaven's gate" had sought the quiet retirement of the heading factory sheds to indulge in the seductive pastime, seven-up The stake was five cents and it was the deal of Mr. Skaggs. With his usual aptitude he shuffled the cards and had just accomplished the pleasing feat of turning a red Jack when the minion of the law swooped down upon him. Mr. Parker grabbed the stakes and disappeared in the dogfennel but Mr. Skaggs and the deck were in the hands of the law. Mayor Bandel committed the auburn haired Frank to the stone pile for eleven days and also issued a warrant for the arrest of Mr Parker.

A BALL OF FIRE.
Ih'Krpnitf) l'rom a Flying Cloud and Kntlw the Earthly Cure«r of CL^Hrlry Darter, Yvatenluy.
Charley Darter, the well known paper hanger, met a tragic and violent death yesterday afternoon about half past 1 o'clock. At that hour he was at his home on Lane avenue just out of the city in the suburb of Longview. He was standing between the posts of his front gate holding his liorse by a strap and allowing it to graze. A black cloud, not at all menacing, however, was coming from the west and his wife stepping to the door, called to him to come in before the rain began. She repeated her request several times and had he heeded he he would now have been alive and well. But he replied that he would come in before the shower began and stood resting easily with one hand upon the gate post and the other clutching the strap. Suddenly from the front of the cloud just above him there descended perpendicularly a bolt, of lightning. Those looking in that direction were for a moment blinded by the llasli and were only aroused by the clatter of hoofs as a wild and maddened horse charged down the street. It was Charley Darter's horse and the lifeless body of its owner lay between the posts of his own gate. His wife and Miss Ella Compton were the only actual witnesses of the tragedy. They aver that the bolt descended in the form of a large ball of fire, as large apparently as a base ball and seemingly struck its victim directly on top of the head. The neighborhood was quickly aroused and came hurrying to the scene of the terrible accident. The body of the unfortunate man lay in the tracks where he stood when struck down by the bolt from the heavens. The bolt had struck him on the back iof the head, tearing his straw hat to atoms and burning the hair oft'. The charge then rushed through his body passing out at the tips of his toes and fingers. The gate post where his hand had rested was badly splintered by the electricity which passed off from his finger tips, while two large holes were torn in the ground where his feet were. His shoes were cut to leather strings and his clothing had taken fire, but barring the hair being burned from the back of his head there were no bruises on his body. lie looked as natural as in life and, of course, never realized what hurt him. His wife, utterly prostrated by the terrible affair, was taken to the home of a neighbor near by, and the victim's father, J. J. Darter, was hastily summoned, he talcing charge of the remains.
The funeral will occur from the residence to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock, the interment being at Oak Hill.
A peculiar fact in the ease is that the bolt fell full six minutes before the rain came. The thunder which fol lowed was not a hard crash altliou it attracted attention over the city.
Dr. Tucker's ltuilding.
Dr. Tucker is building a new busi ness block in Roachdale to take the place of the one burned. The Roach dale News says it will be a two story brick with iron front, three rooms be low, three oHice and a 30x50 room for a printing office above. It will be tin ished in the most modern style. No money will be spared to make it attractive, convenient and as nearly fire proof as possible. The front will be of brick and iron with large plate glass windows. The rooms are finished in hard wood and the ceilings paneled The upstairs will be reached by a stairway that will start at the corner on the east side. The rooms upstairs will be finished like the ones below, will be lighted from windows and glass doors.

A Town aud City and County That Appreciate the Benefits of An Institution of Learning.
Lafayette Times: The county commissioners have under advisement a petition from a committee •representing citizens of Lafayette, asking an impropriation of SilO.OOil from the county treasury, to assist in rebuilding and equipping the lleavilion shops, at Purine University. The town of West Lafayette has contributed S3.000 towards rebuilding the mentioned shops, and citizens of the town have subscribed and additional S3,000 for the same object—making .55,000 from West Lafayette. The city council of Lafayette last Monday night voted to give S10.0U0 from the city treasury, provided the county donates $30,000. Our citizens are deeply interested in the unimpaired maintenance of I'ur due University, in fact, they desire to see it grow and rapidly gain the place it is certainly destined to occupy in the educational world.
BRASS AND COPPER WEDDINGS. The IWdghuis CetebraU* These Anniversaries in a Curious Way.
From a lady in lielgium I have received some interesting notes with regard to the fashion of celebrating brass, copper, etc., weddings in her country.
She tells me that when people have been married six years und a half it Is usual for t.hem to invite their friends to a feast, ball, or any form of entertainment they choose, to mark the occasion of their "brass" wedding, and if they specify the reasou of the festivities it is customary for each guest to bring a present in brass, says writer in Gentlewoman. After twelve and a half years of married life invitations are again sent out, for the "copper" wedding this time, and every gift must be of that metal. In due course come the "silver" and "golden" weddings, well known to ns here, when, of course, nothing less than presents of silver and gold are offered to the happy couple.
Mrs. Goemaere tells me that there are naturally many people who pass by this string of auspicious events in silence, but that when the occasion of a golden wedding becomes known, be the couple ever so humble, tho mayor of tho town goes personally to congratulate them and to offer them in the town's name two pieces of plate, upon which are engraved the arms of the town.
It is amusing to hear of the unique way in which my correspondent celebrated licr copper wedding. No mention was made of the special occasion, and, instead of courting her friends' generosity, she reversed tho situation, and with her own hands worked uo less than two hundred and sixty small presents, with which she presented her guests, needless t6 say, to their great consternation.
