WABASH VALLEY HAPPENINGS. Miscellaneous Items of Rare News Culled From Exchanges Durthe Past Week.

A TRAMP WHO TURNED HIS INGEiUJITY TO SOME ACCOUNT.

Curiosities in. th.9 Shape of a Fivefooced Calf, and a Hen Tiiat Laid a Double Egg.

Danville Commercial: A tramp is playing a neat little trick upon the housewives and saloonkeepers of the city. He watches his opportunity when no men are around the house when he knocks, and after being admitted requests the present of a jug, which he succeeds in getting. He then goes to a saloon, orders the jug filled without paying for it, and requests that it be set to one side until he can attend to a littie business before "going out home," he representing himself as a hired hand on a farm or in some other way connected with agricultural pursuits. Before attending to his "little business" he manages to get a very healthy drink from the jug or from the man who sells him the liquor. The jug remains where it is placed without being called for and the tramp in the meantime is working the same game on some other saloonkeeper in the city. It is an original scheme and Beldom ever fails to bring a big drink and deep disgust to the saloonkeeper for being taken in so cleverly.

Sullivan Democrat: As the drivers were closing up their lines last Saturday, west of Carlisle, a large white wolf was seen to break through the lines and make off toward the Wabash bottoms. Dogs were soon put on the trail and after a miost exciting chase of about two and a half hours, with fresh dogs for the last half hour, they pushed the wolf so close that he took to the water in the big ditch on Gill's prairie, where he was soon found by the hunters, setting in the water to his neck and holding the dogs at bay. Dick Milam knocked him in the head with a club. We understand that the wolf weighed something o-T-ui -cirt ntrj -Trro puu ucrer, HTTOrWTiSrH vary fine specimen supposed to be about two years old. His teeth were about three quarters of an inch long, a little hooked and very sharp. During the chase the wolf traveled over a large part of west Haddon and east Gill townships.

Mattoon Gazotte: It is reported that a lady resident of Charleston, with an idea of imitating Mattoon's bon ton, recently sent out some invitations to a reception. She had noticed frequently in society and fashion papers that when an answer was wished to an invitation the mystic letters "R. S. V. P." were always added. She applied to a hardhearted rival as 'o the meaning of the letters, and was told and the informer also added that when a prompt answer was required to hitch on the letteri "P. D. Q." Madame at once jumped to the bait, and the recipients of the daintily printed notes were astounded to see on the bottom of the cards the abbreviation "R. S. V. P. P. D. Q."

Clarke County Herald: Wes Highfill owns a genuine curiosity in the shape of a five-footed calf. The two front legs and the right hind leg are of the customary shape and size, but the left hind leg is a puzzler. It juts out obliquely, and the upper part is proportionate in size to the other, but there is a knee joint like that in the front leg. Below this joint the leg dwindles in size, and ends in two good-sized feet, both perfectly formed, joined at the ankle, so to speak. The atumal walks on its three good legs, the other one dangling in the air. There is considerable power in the apparently useless leg, and the animal can deliver a double back-action kick with terrific force. It is 2 years old.

Newport Hoosier State: A Ciinton hen takes the cake. She sat on her nest three days without food or drink and at the end of that time it was found that she had laid an egg equal in size to a goose egg. On breaking the shell it was found that inside of it was another egg with a perfectly developed shell tbe space between the outer and inner shell being filled with pure albumen. The inner ege contained two yolks. It is said the editor of the Argus will make a vigorous effort to have this obnoxious hen lispatched for fear she will brood a monopoly in the poultry line. Mont Jaquish is tbe possessor of this specimen of the feathery tribe.

Brazil Democrat: Tbe following is a Brazil item of twenty years ago. Bring on your rat stories, you can't beat it: Mr. Joseph Gold, of Brazil, baker and provision dealer, has caught in one trap during one week seventy-two full-grown rats. Thirty-two of them were caught ia one night and all found in the trap in the morning. As the trap is but a small oDe they were seated upon each other three deep. So novel was the sight that near a hundred men gathered to see it. They were taken to Turner's hall where they were shaken out and left to the mercy of three dogs. One of the three, a terrier, became frightened and with difficulty was restrained from jumping through the window of the third-story.

Washington Gazette: Dr. Horrall tells the following cat story, before his house was burned, a year ago, a large Tom cat had made its home with his family, but when the huilding burned it took its abode up with the neighbors. Since the doctor has rebuilt, the cat has

returned to its first love. Thursday morning the cat came into his house carrying a large forlorn looking kitten which the doctor thinks he had found without a home somewhere about the neighborhood, and deposited it in the room as if to say: "Here, you take care of this orphan!" It'B an unusual thing for a male cat to show such a friendly disposition.

Worthington Times: Knox county is the earthly abiding place of two curiously inclined religious fanatics. They are father and daughter, aged 58 and 28 years respectively. The father, in his younger days, was a very dissipated man, but was converted and claims to be sanctified. Both he and his daughter are firm in the belief that they will live forever. In pursuance of their plan of salvation they will eat no meats of any kind nor use the juice of the vine in any shape.

A southern Illinois exchange furnishes a bit of irony to the effect that farmers in this portion of the state are in trouble again. They have so much corn that they do not know where to put it, the ears are so long 8nd big that they have to SAW them in pieces to get them into a half bushel that some claim that after they have shelled off the com it is necessary to saw and split the cobs in order to use for Btove-wood.

Vincennes Commercial: George W. Wilcher, who lives in Johnson township, has a peculiar growth of wood, which he obtained from the center of a hickory tree two feet in diameter. It is attached to tbe heart of the tree, near the ground, and resembles a thick-bodied larva! with leg*. This singular growth is a fair representation of some worm clinging to a limb.

Newport Hoosier State: Mr. R.

-AwUw ,r—•" —.....

Stephens has in his possession a pair of old iron handcuffs, used on John E. Cook, one of the John Brown raiders, at Harper's ferry, in 1859. Cook was defended by Senator Voorhees, but the Tall Sycamore could not prevail on a Virginia jury to spare his life. He was hanged on the same day with Brown and others.

RECEPTION TO MISS H0i?3IEB.

The Famous Sculptress Entertained by Mrs. Frances Haberly.

There has been, as quite a matter of course, more than a flutter of interest in our cultivated society excited by the presence of Miss Harriet Hosmer the most distinguished woman who has visited this city, who is now visiting her cousin, Mrs. Chas. E. Fuller. It also seemed quite a matter of course that Mrs. Frances Haberly, who brightens a busy life by planning pleasures for others, should bring together a number of pleasant people to meet the famous sculptress. Mrs. Haberly, yesterday afternoon, entertained Miss Hosmer and the Decorative Art society, and in the evening received a number of her friends to meet the honored guest. It was an event to meet the familiar friend of Charlotte Cushing, Hawthorne, George Eliot, Gladstone and Mrs. Browning, more noble friends even than the many titled patrons though their names be the prince of Wales, duke of Richmond, marquis of Salisbury and others, whose rich galleries hold the sculptures of Harriet Hosmer. It was not the intention to lionize Miss Hosmer, who specially deprecates anything of the kind, and certainly the unassuming and genial lfldy, who.. ..waa-.-lh«. frns gatnering was far from inviting such a notice. If she had been conscious of it she could not have been 60 animated and brilliant, so unaffectedly entertaining. In fact when she was with courteous and somewhat elaborate ceremony presented to the Art society it must be confessed that the renowned lady was moved to a sort of girlish giggle and that the dignified Art society followed suit, so that if there was any ice to break it was completely shivered and easy sociability ruled the hour. It could be seen during the easy flow of her conversation, that many days could not exhaust her reminiscences and experiences of the artists and patrons of art met in Rome, Florence, London and various art centers as she talked of them and the creations of her genius as she was questioned by those more or less familiar with them. Her bright and piquant chat was eloquent in its suggestiveness as she alluded to friends, eo well known to us and yet so remete, the great Thorwaldssen, the gifted Mrs. Browning, our own Hawthorne, whose Marble Faun holds a beautiful sentence taken from the lips of Miss Hosmer, who had it from Thorwaldssen, and to the many others of renown and interest who have met and appreciated this famous sculptress. In passing, allubion might be made, without attempt at cataloguing what is incorporated in every cyclopedia, history of art and roll of famous women, so indelibly is the name of Harriet Hosmer, with her works, written in the record of modern art, to some of ths achievements of a delicate girl driveH by her weakness to out-door exercises, by her spirit to some daring escapades, and by her tastes to the study of anatomy and finally to her chosen art, for which she thus had happy preparation Hesper was the first ambitious attempt which led to the studies in Rome, whither she went in company with Charlotte Cushman, to become the pupil of Gibson, the English sculptor, to study and copy the masters and to produce, as the first examples of her mature power, Daphne and Medusa, which were highly praised by connoisseurs and others. Will o' the Wiap, Puck, the Sleeping Faun, Waking Faun, Zenobia, a statue of Maria Sophia, a monument to an English lady, in a church of Rome the Beatrice di Ceiei, now in St. Louis, and the statue of Benton in a St. Louis square, are some of the productions permanently enrolled on the scroll of fame. Her work has shown her indomitable will and industry, marked by executive skill and force, and displaying, it is said, a robust, masculine character, though in many examples, there are the sportive fancy, delicacy and intuitive knowledge of childhood's grace to be expected in a gifted woman's work. Although nearly forty years since Hesper grew in the marble, and thirty since the colossal Zenobia first was famous, the bright and energetic woman seemB yet capable of along and busy career. She has an active mind, which has wandered from art to invention. Years ago she patented a discovery of a new motive power by the use of the permanent electro-mag-net and again a process for making from common lime stone, by moist heat and pressure, a fine marble. She made anew departure in modeling when executing the Pompeian Sentinel by using for the foundation a rough plaster of paris model, instead of clay, which when roughly Bhaped, was coated an inch deep with white wax, to receive the fine finishing touches of the modeling knife. The reporter does not claim that this came out in the witty, easy and brilliant

PAVEMENTS.

Editorial Newark (N. J.) Journal.

It is the barbarous cobblestone that we want to get rid of. It would be no improvement to Newark to pave the dirt streets with cobbles. Better a dirt road in the residence sections of Newark than a cobblestone pavement with its wear and tear on carriages and horses and on the nerves of people.

Asphalt is the best pavement that can be laid down in a city if it is laid down properly.

Asphalt pavements would transform Newark into the most delightful city within a radius of fifty miles from New York. The well-laid wood and asphalt pavements of Washiugton have re-created that city. "Boss" Sheppard, wiio with his confederates made fortunes out of Washington improvements which were bitterly opposed by the taxpayers, are now held in high esteem as the benefactors of Washington. __ tyt ,i +——tUuii ind nvtBBTBBB" streets, without'wear on horses and wagons or annoyance to residents. The asphalt pavement meets this requirement exactly.

In the above tbe Newark Journal is mistaken in the matter of wood pavement and the pavement laid under Sheppard at Washington. That city was largely paved with wood and coaltar (or "vulcanite") under the Sheppard reign. The wood pavement has been entirely replaced with Trinidad asphalt, the last of it having been removed in 1885, and the tar or vulcanite pavements are being steadily surfaced with asphalt, which is the standard pavement of Washington.

Prior to, and including the year 1885, 180,139 square yards of tar pavement in Washington had been replaced with as phalt and the reformation has been going on steadily since then.

A report of a committee of citizens of Akron, Ohio, wbich#committee has recently visited Washington, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Erie and other cities to investigate the matter of street pavements, quotes from the report of the engineer department of the District of Columbia for the fiscal years 188(^7 as follows: "Previous to 1878, 745,305 square yards of coal-tar pavement of various kinds were laid at prices ranging from 81.74 to S3.70 per square yard. Many of these pavements proved unreliable, either through inherent defects in the materials used or faulty methods of mixing and laying. Some went to pieces in a few years and others deteriorated so rapidly as to soon place the annual cost of maintenance at excessively high figures. '•The defect believed to be inherent in all paving compounds into which coal-tar enters as an ingredient was thus stated in the report of the board of experts made to the mayor of Philadelphia in July, 1884:

The coal-tar pavement is not recommended by us, for the reason that the cementing substance is a product of gas-tar, obtained by interrupting tbe distillation of that compound after it has reached a certain point. When placed on the

Btreet

and subjected to

atmospheric influences, a slow and gradual oxidation takes place, by which the tar loses its cementing qualities and becomes inert. The particles of sand then lose their cohesion and the pavement rapidly disintegrates."

This report, which appeared in the Akron Beacon of January J9th, and which would be of interest to every taxpayer of Terre Haute, concludes: "Finally, in the light of all our investigations, and after a careful inspection of concrete pavements, impartially conducted, and with a full knowledge of stoDe pavements, their use, cost and life, as demonstrated in Akron, and with no word of condemnation of the vulcanite pavement as to what it may be in the near future, with better material, and with the interests of Akron and ber people as the only motive to prompt us in our decision, we are of the unanimous opinion that tbe city of Akron will not go amiss by giving the

Trinidad asphalt pavement a fair

and sufficiently extensive trial, feeling confident that such trial will be followed by an extension of this system of pavements to the pleasure and comfort of Akronians and to the benefit of the Tip Top City, Yours,

For restoring the color, thickening the growth, and beautifying the hair, and for preventing baldness, Hall's Hair Renewer is unsurpassed.

Ballard's Snow Liniment

Is the beet liniment in the world for animals. It will work wonders where ever any pain or infiamation may be found. Every owner of a horse should have it in his stable. For sprains, cuts, bruises, galls, lameness and all infiamation on animals, it stands without a parallel. There is no pain Ballard's Snow Liniment will not relieve, no swelling it will not subdue, no wound it will not heal. Sold by J. E. Somee,"comer Sixth and Ohio streets and J. & C. Bauer, corner Seventh and Main streets.

Some Foolish People.

Allow a cough to run until it gets beyond the reach of medicine. They often say, "Oh it will wear away," but in most cases it wears them away. Could they be induced to try the successful medicine called Kemp's Balsam, which is sold on a positive guarantee to cure, they would immediately see the excellent effect after taking the first dose. Price 50 cents and 81. Trial size free at all drug gists.

Merit Wins.

We desire to say to our citizens, that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we Btand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. W. C. Buntin, Druggist.

William's Australian Herb Pills.

If you are yellow, Billious constipated with headache, bad breath, drowsy, no appetite, look out your Liver is out of order. One box of these Pills will drive all the troubles away and make anew being of you. Price 25 cents. Sold by J. E. Somes, Sixth and Ohio Street, and J. & C. Baur, Seventh and Main street.

A Safe Investment.

Is one which is guaranteed to bring you satisfactory results, or in case of failure a return of purchase price. On this safe plan you can buy from our advertised Druggist a bottle of Dr. King's New discovery for Consumption. It is guaranteed to bring relief in every case, when used for any affection of Throat, Lungs or Chest, such as Consumption, Inflammation of Lungs, Bronchitis, Asthma, Whooping Cough, Croup, etc., etc. It is pleisant and agreeable to taste, perfectly safe, and can always be depended upon.

Trial bottles free at W. C. Buntin's.

Consumption is on the Increase.

From recent statistics it appears that consumption is on the increase throughout the western states. The principal cause, it is stated, is due to neglect of common coughs and colds. It is the duty of all persons whether of delicate or robust health, to have a remedy at hand at all times in readiness, and a cough or cold may be broken up before it becomes seated. Ballard's Horehound Syrup will cure any cough except in last stages of consumption. A stitch in time saves nine. Always keep it in your house. Sold by J. E. Somes, corner Sixth and Ohio streets, and J. & C. Bauer, corner Seventh and Main streets.

Disorders

Shattered nerves, tired bralu, impure blood, debilitated system, all are the natural outcome In the Spring. A medicine must be used and nothing equals Palne's Celery Compound. We let others praise us—you cannot help believing a disinterested party.

Urlgadler-General W. L. Greenleaf, Burlington. Yt, writes: "I have used Paine's Celery Compound on several occasions, and always with berent. Last spring, being very much ruD down and debilitated, I commenced taking It. Two bottles made me feel like anew man. As a general tonic and spring medicine I do not know of Its equal." •'I have used two bottles of your Palne's Celery Compound, and it has given entire satisfaction as an appetizer and blood purifier."

T. L. BERNER, Watertown, Dakota.
