Death of Mary D. Gilkey.

Miss Mary D. Gilkey, only daughter of the late Daniel and Julia Gilkey, died at her home on south Washington street last Tuesday evening after a lingering illness of consumption. The deceased was born November IS, 1881, in the house where sho died. Just passing from a gentlo childhood into womanhood, surrounded by wealth and luxury and loving friends, her death is all the more sad. Iler's was of that kind and loving nature which endeared her to every class and kind of people. Those who knew her best loved her best. Her death is a sad shock to the community but all bow to the will of the Divino Master in the knowledge that tho soul of the sweet child has gone homo to its keeper. The funeral occurred from the family residence on Thursday afternoon, Rev. E. P. Thomson officiating. Interment at the Masonic cemeteiy.

A Heavy Hail and Wind Storm. One of the most destructive hail and wind storms that ever visited this section of Indiana occurred last Monday afternoon about 3 o'clock in the Northern part of this county and southern Tippecanoe. The path of the storm was about one inilo in width, beginning at Attica and extending south of Shanwnee Mound. The destruction of all crops in its path was complete. Hundreds of acres of oats and corn were laid bare, in many fields not a semblance of the crops being left. Bushes and trees were torn up from their roots and carried for long distances, sheds and out buildings were crushed to the earth and the scene is one of desolation. The farmers in the path of the storm will lose heavily.

ITS WORK.

A Synopsis of Important Doings of tho Llld Congress.

THEY ARE SOT GREAT IN RUMBER.

Bills and Joint Resolutions Introduced In the House Aggregate 9,835, and in the Senate 3,604—A Total of 400 llecome Law*.

WHAT COXGKZSS HAS DONK. WASHINGTON, Augr. l.—The future compiler of the official history of the laws of the United States will not need much space in which to inscribe the really important laws enacted in the first session of the Fifty-second conpress, now ready to close as soon as the world's fair matter is out of the way. The session drawing- to a close has not been remarkable for its actual accomplishments 60 far as respects large legislation.

Efforts more or less vigorous have been made to pass through both houses of congress bills dealing with questions that occupy a large share of public attention, but these, with a single exception, have failed of accomplishment. The sole measure of the first class in importance, not counting the appropriation bills which have become a law, is the Chinese exclusion bill, and political expediency had much to do with its rapid congressional progress. This bill, the Inman registry bill, the Black Hawk and Seminole Indian wars pension bill, the eight-hour bill, the bill to enable the president to enforce reciprocal canal arrangements with Canada, the army nurse bill, the intermediate pension bill and the bill to increase the pay of life savers are about the only measures of much general interest enacted into law.

Free silver, the tariff, the anti-op-tions bill, retrenchment of appropriations and a $5,000,000 loan to the world's fair have been the live topics of the session. The first three subjects have been killed, at least until after the election, while the last is still before congress.

Many Introduced.

The house passed approximately 475 bills, of which 284 were passed by the senate and sent to the president. Of the bills passed by the house '.'20 were public bills, including measures relating to the District of Columbia 151 private pension bills: 4S bills to remove charges of desertion, and 41 private bills of a miscellaneous character.

The senate passed 091 bills, only 113 of which succeeded in running the gauntlet of the house and reaching the president. Two of the latter number the president vetoed, viz., the bill to send the famous McUarrahan claim to the court of claims for adjudication and bill to amend the court of appeals act. Three bills the president permitted to become laws without his signature.

The total number of bills and joint resolutions introduced in the house was 9.835, and in the senate 3,004. In the house 2,103 reports were made on bills, and in the senate 1,097 written reports were made, no notice being paid to unwritten reports.

The noteworthy feature of the private bills which became laws was the large percentage of them relating to servici in the Mexican war, the Indian wars and the war of 1812. the beneficiaries being chiefly southern men.

The Retiring sea trouble with Great Britain was ti ugliest complication the senate had to con.ider behind closed doors, and a peaceful solution of it was found in its reference to an arbitration commission. The Chilian muddle also occupied home of the senate's attention in executive session.

DRIVEN INTO THE MUD.

Terrible Dratli of l'rof. Kdwaril Hope, the Aeronaut, at St. l'uul.

ST. PAUI,, Minn., Aug. 1.—Prof. Edward Hope, the balloonist, met instant death at Inver grove in a peculiar manner Sunday afternoon. After his balloon had gone up about half a mile it began to drift rapidly toward the Mississippi before a west wind. Becoming alarmed, Hope cut away his parachute and began to descend. The machine worked badly, however, and he dropped to the earth like a shot. Lie fell in a slough and was driven 12 feet into '.he soft mud. It required nearly an hour to dig his body out.

DisHster to a I'icnic Train.

MIT.WAUKKK, Aug. 1.—The train hired by the Union stock yards switchmen of Chicago, who on Saturday had a picnic here at the National park, was wrecked at 11:80 a. m. in the union depot. The train was run in two sections, the first arriving a quarter of an hour ahead of the other. Section No. 1 was still standing on the track, the excursionists having left the ears, when No. came rushing into the depot at such a rate of speed as to render the engineer unable to stop it, and it crashed into No. 1, telescoping the rear coach, and bsdl? sinai-biii tf two others. ?.
