The '‘beautiful snow” has wilted. Achey and Merrick were executed at Indianapolis, Wednesday. ’’Al. Catt is the proud father of a 13 pound boy, aiid is proportionately happy. Judge Hammond returned from Indianapolis Wednesday, and Sheriff Robinson on Tuursday evening. Those of our readers who trade at the Pilot Grove store are in luck.— Good coffee, 7 lbs. for sl.

Don’t forget that wood—those who have promised it In payment of subscriptions. Jbhn Hufty, of Pilot Grove, last week shipped two double-decks of hogs over the narrow gauge from this point. Why will men smoke poor cigars when they can get the best at. Catt & Smoot’s? Call for the Bald Head Cigar. Leopold has just received from the cities an extensive stock of new goods, which he is offering at lower rates than heretofore. Hon. R. S. Dwiggius will lecture at the Christian Church on next Sunday evening, February 2d, 1879. Subject—- “ Why is there so much infidelity in the world?” John Bull, of Barkley township, while on his way to spelling school, at Cosy Palace, last Friday night, had a leg .broken by his horse falling,’with him. The Knights of Pythias have de cided to have a grand Masquerade Ball at this place on the night of Fri day, February 21, 1879 Proper committees have been appointed, and everything will be conducted in first class style.

Rev. Gilbert Small is exoeefed to preach in the Presbyterian Church, at this place, Saturday afternoon, February Bth, also Sunday following, when communion services will bo held. A cordial invitation is extended to the public. Our old friend, John Hufty, Esq., merchant and P. M. at Pilot Grove, made us a short call yesterday. He is doinr a good business, an . is therefore happy. John is the first Demo cratlc Justice of the Peace elected in Ills township for many years, and he wears his honors gracefully The Indianapolis Sentinel of last Saturday evidences the fact that the State organ very indiscreetly sometimes tampers with sour grapes. Mr. Hoover’s Democracy, honesty and b isiness qualifications will compare favorably with thb same characteristics in Mr. Shoemaker; and he has at least equally as strong claims upon the favor and support of the De mocracy. In this and adjoining counties, where Mr. H. is well known, the uncalled for and unjustifiable strict ures of the Sentinel upon him lias made it no friends. Thejfollowing from the Rensselaer Union, written i y Mr. Haves’ appointee to Turks Island, will serve to show the Sentinel the views of the opposition toward the gentleman in question: "Prison Director.—Fred Hoover, of Remington, formerly commissioner of Jasper county, and by far the shrewdest democrat in it, is announced as a condidate for director of the northern prison. If elected he will surely make every, possible tiling in the position turn topartisan advantage. The democracy can do themselves no better service than to appoint him.'

General freight agent D. B. Nowels informs us that since the weather bus grown milder business over the I,JD. C., in both freight and passenger departments, is assuming more than its wonted activity; three to six eat loads corn leaving Rensselaer daily. Conductor Jouos has obtained leave of absence, and accompanied by his family started Thursday, 30th inst., on a vist to theßuckeye State to «pend a few weeks with relatives and hiends. Assistant Superintendent Millikan will act as conductor pro tern during' his absence. The Narrow Gauge has milled a grist for nearly every farmer within live miles of Rensselaer during the last month. All one had to do was to deliver the grain at the depot on one day, and the next call for and take home the flour. Handy as a pocket in a ! Isn’t it? J. B. Millikan, the efficient baggage man and express messenger of the I. D. & C. has been confined to the house for the past few days owing to a severe cold. He is now suffiviently reeoveied to resume his duties. Mr. Geo. W. Markley, bridge sup’t of the I.

In our style of climate, with its sudden changes of temperature, — rain, wind and sunshine often intermingled in a single day,—it is no wonder that our children, friends and rela'ives are so frequently taken from us colds, halt the deaths resulting directly from this cause A bottle of Boeehoe’s German Syrun kept about your home for immediate use will prevent serious sickness, a large d ictor’s bill, and perhaps by the use of three or four doses For suring Consumption, Hemorrhages, Pneumonia Severe Coughs, Croup or any disease of the Throat oi Lungs, its success is simply wonderful, as vour druggist will tell you. German Syrup is now soil in every town and village on this continent. Sample bottles for trial, 10c.; regular size, 75c. Probably no one preparation has received so much praise from its patrons, noris so deserving of commendation as Hall’s Hair Renewer! We but echo the vohe of the millions who have used it when we pronounce it THE BEST HAIRDRESSING IN THE WORLD It stands unrivalled. Those who are affected with diseases of the scalp accompanied with itching or irritation, flud relief and renewal in this invaluable remedy. When the hair is in dined to fall off, a moderate use of the Renewer will strengthen the roots of the hair, and preserve it, and ff it exhibits a tendency io turn gray it will restore the natural color.—Fulton (Mo.)
