A club in Connersville calls itself tho "Sour Grape Club." There will soon be an attempt made to strike natural gas near Brazil. State Fish Commissioner Dennis has made several arrests of law violators ou the Wabash River. Grave robbers stole the corpse of Miss Emms West, an 18-ycar-old girl who died recently at Brazil. Natural gas leaked from the pipes and nearly suffocated Morris Winos and his family In Shelbyville. The Farmers’ Institute of Wayne and adjoining counties will hold a two days’ meeting in Centerville, Dec. 15 and 16. Luther Cox received what was supbosed to be fatal injuries by a eave-ln,at Muncie, while working iu the waterworks trench. A company will be organized to investigate the land about Crumstown, near South Bend, as It is believed that silver is to be found there. The Council of Tipton Is agitating the question of water works, but a division exists whether the city should owe the works or give away a franchise. William Hedrick, living near Stinesville, one of the best known and wealthiest farmers of Monroe County, was found dead in the road. Paralysis is the supposed cause. A young man named Campbell, living on a farm owned by Governor-elect Matthews near Clinton, had part of his head blown off by the accidental discharge of a shotgun. He died soon afterward.

No tidings have yet been received from Samuel Fogleman, who so unceremoniously deserted his wife and two small children near Plainfield recently. His friends are at a loss to account for his strange conduct. Tom Cole of Jeffersonville, who was a brakeman on the South-bound P., <l, C. &St L. freight train, was killed at Slate cut. He attempted to cross front one car to another when he fell between the two. His body was taken to Vienna. Thomas Mossman ot Wabash, was probablyfataily.injured recently. .While at work beneath a huge bank of earth, it caved upon him, burying him almost to the shoulders. He was badly crushed and hurt Internally, and was black in face when released. The surgeons do not think he will survive. The Lake Erie & Western railway will soon have a line into Yorktown, where stone-quarries, flourlng-mills and factories will give it patronage. The new tack factory at Yorktown has commenced operations. After four days hard work the big gas well on tne Spiker farm, north of Muncie, has been got iiftder control and the monster is safely chained. The pipe in the well is double that of the natural size, and <the output Is estimated at about 11,000.000 feet per day. Mr.' George O’Neil, who harnessed the big Fairmount well, was the successful man. There appeared before the board of pension examiners at Mount Vernon, an old man who is a link that binds us to former generations. His name is John Surber. He was a member of Company H, Tenth Indiana Volunteers, in the war of the rebellion. • John Surber was born July 14, 1798, and is consequently going on ninety-five years of age. Ho fought under Gen. Jackson at the battle of New Orleans. Mr. Surber has been married three times, and says he has never taken but five doses of medicine in his life. His present wife is 69 years of age. The veteran is well preserved,and promises to live to be a hundred years old. He resides in Ripley county, ne*» Marion.
