will officiate.

TIIK Chicago Malirtif Tim•••• contains a very fluttering notice of Ir. J. K. lun--an, who recently moved to this place. The Doctor was a professor in Bennett Medical College, and its a teacher the 77 /i''.' says he "was always sound, matter (if fact, practical." "As a practioner,"

iisays, "he certainly has few superiors in *ny department, and as an obstetrician tew equals."

TIIK corner stone of the new Catholic hurch will he laid with public ceremonies at an early day. Societies from Indianapolis and Greencastle are to be invited, and every preparation is beintr

made to make the occasion interesting and imposing. Father Walters has a force oI about a dozen men at work on the foundation, which will be completed

in a short time.

•TOMMY HASI.OS, one of the popular conductors on the Louisville, New Albany & Chicago Railroad, makes his last rip over the road to-day until after the election, and perhaps forever, as he is a candidate for Auditor of Floyd county, with splendid chances for success. The many friends of Tommy and of the road will miss him greatly, but will be rejoiced at his promotion if he makes it.—I.aj- tjtjctl'' Jonrwil.

A I'iiEASAST social event this week was the marriage of B. R. Russell, of

this city, to Miss Sylvia O'Neall, of Yountsville, which was solemnized at the home of the bride on Thursday afternoon, the 1st inst. The ceremony was performed by Dr. J. F. Tuttle and was

witnessed only by the family and two or three intimate friends. The attendants were Jas. Stubbing and Misa Ella Maxwell. Byron and his bride left on the

4:34 train for Indianapolis, from which place tliey will return to-day. There will be many friends to bid them welcome and wish them a happy journey

through life.

BOLD ROHIIKKY.—Last Tuesday evening Milt Johnson, of the firm of W. H. Johnson it Co.. wholesale whisky sellers of Indianapolis, struck up an acquaintance with George Nash, a whisky

seller of this place, and the two spent the evening together. Johnson was so well pleased with his new friend that he invited him t: sleep with him in his room at the Keller House. Nash accepted the invitation, and the two retired after

eating oysters at Johnson's expense. The next morning Johnson awakened to tind his bedfellow gone, and miss his watch and some-$-*0 in money. On inquiry he learned that Nash had taken the 3:40 eastward bound train, and at once telegraphed to Indianapolis and other points to have him arrested. It would seem impossible for the fugitive thief to long escape being captured, though we could learn of no such result up to the lime of going to pre-s.

THIS is the way ttiey do things out in J. W. Miller's neighborhood, a fev miles south west of town. A few evenings ago a party ot fifteen of them entered an eight acre corn field belonging to ZebuIon Skaggs, shortly after dark, to cut and shock hit corn for him. They were

making good progress with their work when the old gentleman discovered them about 10 o'clock. This spoiled the joke somtwha', but he made up for it by treating the party to a couple ot buckets of good cider, and the work was finished and all went home in a joliv good humor

late at night.

Mits. DK. HOOVER was thrown from a

carriage in which she was riding last .Sunday and received severe injuries. Her skirts caught in the steps of the carriage, dragging her some distance, and then one of the wheels parsed over her body. She was considerably bruised, but not dangerously hurt. Col. Willson was driving, but escaped unhurt. The

carriage was thrown on its side and dragged some distance but not seriously damaged.

THE Indianapolis exposition, though a very creditable affair, has not drawn hun.lredsof thousands of people every day. Last .Saturday a party of young ladies from this city visited it. They were the only ladies in the building during the forenoon, and the crowd of gen

tlemen could not have been very large, as one of them lost her pocket book and found it lying on the floor undisturbed two hours after she missed it.

JuniJi': THOMAS this week 011 the appli-! cation of J. J. Darter, one of the School I Trustees, issued a mandate, directing the

Auditoi to pay over the school funds to M. D. Manson as Treasurer of the School Board. The Auditor refused to take the responsibility of settling the question between Darter and .Manson as to who is Treasurer, and it is now settled by the the Court.

THE oldest case on the docket, numbered 37, was disposed of this week in the Circuit Court. It was a suit of Jacob Davis and others against John Lee and others on a contract, and grew out
