Died of II art Dlaeaae. Anderson Roberts, who has for a number of years been a resident of Indianapolis, died very suddenly xf heart disease, near Cleveland, Ohio, last Wednesday morning. Mr. Roberts, most of the time while here, was employed in the various club rooms on North Illinois street, but gave up his place not long ago to take a position on the railroad. His death took place on board one of the outward bound trains from Cleveland. At the time of his death he was moving about on the train as it thundered along, when suddenly, without any (erceptible sign of what followed, the "silver cord was loosened, ' and he fell a dead man. He has been troubled with heart disease for some time, and for several davs prior to his death had complained considerably of feel ing unweil. His family was immediately notified of his death, and his remains ship ped to this city, arriving lhursday morning at 6:55. The deceased was born in Louisville, Ky.; was about 37 years of age. He leaves a" wife and family. He was buried under the auspices of Gibson Lodge, No. 2, U. li. of F., and Jericho .Lodge, No. 4, Good Samaritans, of which Lodges he was an active member. The Democrats no doubt gave De La Matyr the cold shoulder, when they nominated Cass Byfield for Congress. After having canvassed the matter thoroughly we arrived at the conclusion, that had he, as nearly everybody else does, bought his groceries at Miller & Beers , rJl Indiana avenue, he wouldn't have got left. Robert Lubbock, Cedar Rapids, Jowa, writes: ''I have used Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil both for myself and family for Diptheria, with the very best results.

The program of Bethel Literary Society last Tuesday, was one of unusual interest. "The dying boy," a recitation, by Mrs. Mary Lee, was very favorably received by the audience. "Florentioa," reading, by Miss Sarah Johnson, was rendered in her usual lively and piquant style, which never fails to please. W. A. Sweeny delivered a recitation entitled 'Tirne," in a forcible and impressive manner peculiar to himself. "A tribute to little women," a selection, by Mrs. Mary Lee, which was rather a plea for that unfortunate(?) class of the human family, seemed to be highly appreciated by the au dience, "Why don't the ladies propose," a very pertinent query, by Miss Sarah Johnson, was attentively listened to, especially by the young gentlemen. Refreshments and a good time generally followed the exercises. Union Literary Society met Wednesday evening, and was called to order by the chairman. An interesting programme was presented and was carried out to the satisfaction of all present. It consisted of a duet, by Misses Maggie Fishback and Luella Marrs; a select reading, by Miss Laura Howard; song, by Miss Harriet Llewelyn; select reading, by Mr. Samuel Jones, subject: "A life lesson." The following question was discussed: "Resolved, That Gen. Grant did more to save the Union than did Abraham Lincoln." The affirmative was supported by Messrs C. C. Stepp and J. L Evans, the negative by Messrs. Jas. Woods and J. T. Hill. Jacob II. Bloomer, of Virgille, N. Y., writes: 'Your Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil cured a badly swelled neck and sore throat on my son in forty-eight hours; one application also removed the pain from a very sore toe; my wife's foot was also much inflamed, so much so that she could not walk about the house; she applied the Oil, and in twenty-four hours was entirely cured."
