Col. R. W. Thompson had one of his spells of unconsciousness Thursday morning, lasting some time. When he came out of it, however, he was none the worse for it and was able in tin evening to play a winning game of euchre with a party of friends.— Terre Haute (Jazettt. An exchange says: Vincennes has a boy —a smart little boy—who was ambitious to be a letter carrier. A short time ago he secured a lot cf old love letters his mother had treasured since her courtship days and distributed them from house to house throughout the neighborhood. The Presbyterian orchestra entertained a large audience last evening witli a sacred concert. The vocal numbers were rendered by Mr. Burlingame and Miss Morse in a highly creditable manner. The instrumental selections were attentively listened to by the audience who crowded the room upstairs and down. These monthly musical programs are proving very popular at this church. An old farmer expressed the opinion that the time is not far distant when the farmers will cultivate their wheat crop. He relates an instance where a farmer tried cultivation and the results. The farmer removed every other fluke from his drill, thin sowing double the quantity. He cultivated the wheat after the spring rains and was rewarded with forty bushels to the acre, while the remainder of the fleld sown in the original way only yielded twenty to the acre. There Is one Greencastle boy at least who has no end of trouble in order that lie may spend a few happy hours on Sunday with nis sweet heart, who unfortunately lives in a very small hamlet.

time.
