A full line of spring and summer suiting, pantaloonig.s, etc., at Swank it Clark's east Main street,

There is so much rain that the farmers are put back with their work, which will make corn planting late. 0. D, Thomas now has a wagon on the road gathering up poultry and prtfduce of all kinds. Joe Oliver is engineering it.

Parent* who allow their children to run up aud down railroad tracks, wade ditches aud fish on Suuday should teach them better.

The wheat fields, meadows and pastures never did look better than at the present time, yet something might happen to the wheat and cut the crop short.

Garden making, aud house cleaning are in order now. Also sowing oats, planting potatoes and plowing for corn is going on a-, it is time they were all in.

The landlady or the Junction House, who has been laid up for repairs for three weeks, is some better. It is Mrs. J. S. Bennett, but they do a good business all the same.

J. S. Bennett is still writing insurance for the old reliable Phoenix, of Hartford and others, and cau sometimes get a riBk when other agents fail. Where the people know hiin be can succeed.

J. S. Bennett has the job of taking the uuI meration of the township and works at it when he can. He will soon be over the townAttica ship and will know how many there are that will draw from the school fund.

John Ellis and Alex, Cramer, of Waynetewn, were here and moved the old M. E. church to the lot of the Allen Brothers, where it will be used as a livery barn as soon as it can be arranged for that purpose.

The yard wide track, or streaks of rust, is now a standard and carries more freight than the Monon. It is the Clover Leaf and is fast coming to the front. Some of the men who made sport of the road are glad to get a job on it.

One night last week a man claiming New Albany as his his home, and giving his name as Taylor, stayed all night and got breakfast in the morning at the Junction House and walked out without paying his bill. When he sees this perhaps he will remember it.

The Juvenile Temple at this place has been resurrected and is on its feet again. The superintendent of the Temple is certainly in earnest as several efforts were made to get them together before he was successsful. The people may wish to know who its. It is J. S, Bennett.

THE BALHINCH BUGLE.

MR. EDITOR: The last week's issue of the Bugle was gobbled up like hot cakes. An extra edition had to be printed on flour sacks, the Bugle having exhausted its supply of paper. I borrowed a copy from which I selected the following important news:

FASHIONS FOR THE FAI R.—The"Shanghigh" is the name of a new hat that is all the rage in feminine society down here. It is constructed of felt, is cone shaped, and decorated with artificial sunflowers. It is quite stylish in appearance, and is said to be a great favorite with three rougney-cheeked girls of Whitesville Mother Hubbard pantalets, intended for lawn tennis and picnics, will be worn this summer. They are made of gauze The Parisian craze of decorating hosiery with lizards, chinch-bugs, tadpoles, and other in sects, has reached this place The latest fad in ancient girl circles is the old poke bonnet with new improvements.

NKW BOOKS RECEIVED.—'-Rise and Fall of tne Bustle," by Miss Jane Flonnder.—Tho writer informs us that the bustle has had its day. Like the Roman empire, it has had a rise and fall. The bustle had been much abused. It had been an object of ridicule, the butt for all the slings of humor. But now its sun had set No more could the editor wail: women with paper curia.

With bustles that rattle and quivor, 'Tin not paper you'r wearing out, liut the Jingle editor's liver.

...."A Tribute to Col. Robert G. Ingersoll," by Williard J. Hull, of Buffalo, N. Y.—Below will be Been a cut of Mr. Ingersoll. It was executed by Silas G. Wray. As the Col. has many admirers in this county, Mr. Wray among the number, we give an extract from the book. Mr. Hull says: "Robert G. Ingersoll was born at Dresden, New York, in 1833. He was educated In Illinois, where he studied law and was admitted to the bar here he also en­

lands, teuements, and flats, are euetnies of civilization, is fit to hold the most exalted position on earth. That man is Robert G. Ingersoll. He is simple aud abstemious in his habits, and is loved best by those who kuow him best haled by those who know him or understand him the least. He stands preeminently tho Ivanhoe of free thought on this contineut He has opened up the wells of thought and helped to make tuen free. Ingersoll came at the right time. He has come to stay. The fires of Siuitbtield have smoldered the inquisition is a bad memory. Witch burn ing is now impossible. The earth does revolve the church conceeds the fact, although Galileo, Bruno, Copernicus, aud every other astronomer who dared to assert it in the good old days, were ruthlessly butchered by this same church. The steller universe is studied without fear. The stars all have ap^r.-M-iatP names, but not a single star bears a Christian name! Slowly the scales have fallen from the eyes of men. Ingersoll then is safe. He will live his alioted time on earth uuterrified by flames. He speaks from principle and for principle. His light will shine." "Which One Is the Right One?" by Klida Dashmanta, a noted Hindoo writer and Ori eutal scholar, who was educated iu Germany, —This writer is too impertinent. He is con temptable. Just hear the rascal's argument "The seven leading bibles of the world are: the Koran of the Mohamidans, the try Pitkes of the Buddhists, the Five King^ of toe Chinese, the three Vedass of the Hindoos, the Zend-Avesta of the Persian sects, the Eddas of the Scandinavians, aud the Scriptures of the Christians. Which one of these is correct? If one is right, the rest are wrong. The Mohauiidan claims ihat his hi Die is inspired, so do they all. The Christian says his is THE only inspired bible in th world lie says the Koran contains many quotations from the Scriptures. He does not know that most of Christ's sublime teachings were copied from Pythagoias. The Christian also claims that his Scriptures are older than the most ancient of the sacred writings. Well, if this is so, those antique writers may be closely related to the Orang. outang family. Moses, who made some mistakes, may have been the "missing link." We can see absurdities iD other bibles, but none in our own. The Mohamldan, I think. 13 truer to his religion than the Christian. The Kokan says: "Intoxicate not thyself!" DruakenesB is a stranger to the Mohamidan. Not long since, one of the steamships
