Walker items came to hand tco late for in ertion this week. The Jasper county Bepublicans in 1886 repeat their effort of 1880 in exhibition of greed for place.— That year Hon. Horace E. James, ex-consul, etc., desired to be placed on the fetate ticket for Secretary of State; Thompson, for Congress; Chilcote, for Bepresentative, and Babcock for Prosecutor. James was voted the Jonah of the crew. In the effort to get rid of hi in, the balance of the loyal patriots went

overboard with him.

Indianapolis News: Major Bitters, e:litor and proprietor of the Rochester Daily Republican, was attacked and assaulted upon Main stre t, in that city, b Otto Rettig, of Peru. They were separated after a lively round. The assault was the result of an article appearing in the paper a few days ago reflecting upc n the character of Rettig. Rettig pleaded guilty and was fined $5 and costs. Bro. James will now be able to return compliments and extend congret llations. He can send “To T. Major Bitters, greeting: ‘Me, too!’ But this is not the fint assault on Bitters. And when editor of the Rensselaer Republican, hi a absence on one occasion saved i him from an application of rotten eggs procured by an uld lady for ! his benefit.

The seleclion of Judge Turpie for the office of United States Attorney for the District of Indiana, is one of the best yet fiflfMe. In his case, the man will honor the office. Should a vacancy occur in the Attoaney General’s office, we suggest to President Cleveland that he will meet the most general and emphatic approval of all parties if he will place that position at the disposal of Judge Turpie. The Ladies’ Literary Society met, on June 26tli, at Mrs. A. Purcupile’s, and the meeting was devoted to business. The election of officers was tli« first thing in o»der. Mrs. Belle Kerr was electel president; Mis A. Purcu ile, vice-president; Mary Washburn, se 3ret ry; Mrs. Alfred Thompson, treasurer, and Miss Mollie Babcock, critic. Mr. Van Rensselaer sent a manuscript History of the “Jesuit Mission” to the society.— The Hist >ry was written by himself and is very interesting and well written. A letter was also read from his daughter, acknowledging acceptance of honorary membership to which she had been elected. The society returned a vote of thanks to Mr. Van-Rens-selaer for the manuscript History and other kindnesses that he has shown it during his visit here.— The society desired to take a summer vacation and the meeting adjourned until the first Saturday in October.

Last Friday evening, about six o’clock, during the storm which passed over the town lightning struck the residence occupied by the families of Martin E Baylor and Ed. Erwin, south side of public square, causing the death of Claude, aged about eleven years, son of Mr. Baylor. At the time of the accident Claude, with an older sister and younger brother were standing in tli* rear doorway and Mrs. Baylor had just come down stairs. Under the circumstances it is a matter of surprise that the other members of the family escaped unharmed. Funeral services were conducted by Lev. I). Handley, Saturday, at 11 o’clock, a. m. At a special session of the board of trustees, Monday evening, a contract was ordered for half a mile of glazed 10-incli sewer pipe to be laid on north s:de of Harrison street, from’ Leopold’s Addition.
