INDIANA MORTGAGES.

iiom the census office a special bulletin has been issued giving statistics, of farms, homes and mortgages in Indiana, which is important to every resident of the Hoosier state. It shows that Indiana’s per capita mortgage indebtxlnes is but 851, which is lower than any other Northern *tate that has been tabulated, except Maine end New Hampshire It is a patent fact the country ovt r that Indiana has oue of the best twfcool systems extant, and about the Urgent acbocl fund of any ***** ** ifc* uidon, anti also that

interest is lower ng upon real estate to the minimum limit, but this official showing will add an*, other iuduceim nt f< r outside capital, elevaie Indiana real estate security, and can but have the effect of still fuitlier reducing Tie int t rest upon money, not onb from inside of the state, but mitside. Ldgansoort Phaios: Judee Baldwin, in spe iking of the World's iair, sid: “I have been on Tie 'rounds rt Chicago, and the buildings compr te witli anything I have | ;eeu in Europe for macnifici-uce They leave the Crystal Pa ac 1 < f London, in which th» World’s fair >f 1851 was held, in the shade. Will the exception of the Eiffel tower, which, with its L,OOO feet of height, is eimpl unipi reachable, the Chicago World’s tair buildings and grounds are far in advance of those of Paris, where the World’s fair was held in 1889. I he buildings and grounds at Chicago more resemble Venice than anv other c.ty I now recall, with the advantage that there is ten times the beauty connected with the World’s fair grounds than nay siot of like size in the Italian city.”
