AT MERRILL, HUBBARD Z CO/S, 5 HAST WASHINGTON STREET. 5 CIT- NEW8. — ^ — Vheriuoraeter. 7 a. m .....■■ 71. (i p. m 81° Hon. J. L. Evans, of Noblesville, is in the city, attending the Voss trial, and Hon. John Hanna has gone to Washington. Thomas Pierce, of Logansport, for failing to destroy rectifiers’ stamps on seventy empty ■whisky barrels offered to pay $26 and costs, ■which was rejected. He now offers to pay $1- for each barrel andf costs, which proposition the United States attorney recommends tie accepted. The light infantry and Russ rifles have accepted u»e invitation of the Knights of Pythias to turn out as an escort at the assembling of the supreme lodge of the world. The former company has determined to go to the St. Louis fair and compete for the ^750 offered as a prize to the best drilled milftarv company. The picked nine organized by Frank Scott ■will nlay a match game with another nine on the ba e ball grounds Saturday afternoon. The Ruse rifle band will be in attendance, and the proceeds will be used to purchase uniforms for the boys. Parry Wright is the captain of the nine club, which has been named the “Capital City Club,’?:and is called the strongest amateur club ever organized in the city. Frank B. Ainsworth has a photograph of Hr. Morton, the notorious body snatcher. The card has inscribed on its back the name Of George A. Christian, which is the true name of the scoundrel who boasts a score of aliases. He was at one time an inmate ef the Ohio reform school He was in this city all last summer boarding at the corner of Tennessee and New York streets under the name of Dr. Johnson.

> The New Library Building. A short description of the plan of the building proposed to de erected by Mrs. James M. Hume for the use of the public library is given below. The board of school commissioners will be asked to enter into a contract to lease the building, if the plan and location suit, at its meeting next Friday night: The proposed building will front 120 feet on Meridian street, 70 feet on Ohio street, will be twe stories in height, built of pressed brick and cut stone, in th« modern gothic style, and will be warmed by steam throughout There will be permanent light from all four sides of the building, though the library proper will receive its principal light through the roof. The firs’ story of the building will be divided ino seven store rooms, pointing on Mercian street and two broad stairways, t>ne of which leads to the library and the other to the apartments of the school commissioners; which Latter are situated in the south end of the building, and are complete in all respects. The library room will occupy the center of the building, 45x65 feet and 35 high, with alcoves for boqk 3 , etc., arranged in three tiers, and containing ample accomodations for 100,000 volumes. The arrangements for the examination of catalogues, the return and delivery of books, are ample and com r plete; and tne waiting rooms for patrons are specious and comfortable. The reading room will occupy rhe entire north end of the building, and will be one elegant-apartment lighted from three sides. Between this and the library will be located the library of reference, having communication with both rooms. The office of the librarian will also have communication with both of the above apartments, and, also, by Miitable hoist and private stairway with the unpacking room in the first story. All the necessary toilet rooms and other minor conveniences are provided and the entire arrangement is intended to be first class in every respect. Another proposition is to build the library, etc,, on the ground flbor, dispensing with the stairs, thus devoting the entire building to.school purposes, and obviating the neccssi- . ty of having other tenants in the building.

The Communistic Circus. The communists were unable to raise $50 to pay for the use of the Exposition grounds for their grand demonstration, August 18th, and now announce that they will take their menagerie to Moore’s grove, near the end of the English avenue street car line, where the beer will foam and bubble without interference from the authorities, either city or county. Kearney may be here, but it is by no means certain that ne will be. C. A. Light who Is doing most of the wind-work in getlingupthe demonstration, has received a letter from Moore, grand secretary at Market stmt, San Francisco, headquarters of the workingmen s party of California, saying that Kearney will most likely come tp Indianapolis. The letter says that the party is a glorious one, marching on to victory under the irrepressible. Kearney, with 14,000 votes in lift state, and having elected thirtyore delegates to the constitutional convention. A. R. Parsons, a Chicago printer who doesn’t work, will be here on the 18ih to talk, as will also .two other able agitators who have been heard from, P. J. McGuire, a cabinet maker of New Haven, Connecticut, who travels on his jaw, and W. C. Haynes, a shoemaker, who has laid down his lapstone and is pegging away at the labor question. The whole affair is likely to prove a fizzle. •

The Corn Crop. , The grain men speak very hopefully of the coming corn harvest. The crop at present is reported as being as fine as it could possibly be, the rains have come in just the nick of time, and the warm sunshine ia shooting np the tall stalks with a rapidity that is wonderful. But still there are so many things that might happen to destroy the crop that any positive prophecies can t ot now be made. Everything is very flatte ing now, and the farmers feel tolerably certain of a good crop. Some farmers in certain localities complain of too mveh warm weather with too little rain, but those reports are only local, and do not exU nd over any large amount of territory. The acreage is not as large this year as last by 20 per cent., but it will prove to be larger in other sections of the country. The large acreage of wheat was taken from the corn lands. The crop this vear, however, it is hoped, will be much nearier to the acre than it has been for years past, and the aggregate harvest will be, if anything, greater than in 18-77.

Niagara Excursions. The excursions te Niagara Falls to-day were well patronized, as are. all excursions given this season. A train of nine coaches went out at 9 o’clock over the Bee line, carrying 400 j>assengers. They take the steamer “Pearl” at Cleveland this evening, and, after a night ride over the lake, reach the falls at 9 o'clock to-morrow morning. Returning that evening the same way, the party will reach home Thursday at 6 p. m. At 12:25 ten well-filled car loads left oyer the Peru road, reaching the falls via. the Wabash, Canada Southern and Erie roads*. This party will have a full day at Niagara, returning home Friday morning. For $1 exira the trip may be extended to Toronto, across Lake Ontario and return.

The County Experts. The county experts will doubtless be duly thankful when these long summer days have passed. They now come to their \vork(?) between 8 and 9 a. m., leave at 12 or 11:30 for dinner. Shortly after 2 p. m. they return to their office, smoke three or Jour choice Havanas, yawn half an hour or so, scribble their autographs on the blotting pads. calculate how much they * ill hare thirty-five or forty years hence on their daily stipend and about 3:30 or 4 p. m. they have their books put away and come out upon the streets. When the days get shorter they will curtail their working hours proportionately. Army of the Tennessee Rennton. The local committee of arrangements to prepare for the reunion of the army of the Tennessee in this city, October 30th and 31st, find that no hall suitable for the meeting is to be had here and have decided to report to General Sherman, who will probably order a change of program and have the reunio'n in Cincinnati. The Opera house was found to be engaged for Octooer 30th and 31st and the manager of the Metropolitan, wanted $500 for the ase of his theater, which the committee thought too much figure for the paucity of style, character and accommodation afforded by the place. A Change of Pastors. On next Thursday evening the congregation of Central Christian church will meet to determine upon a pastor for the comi.ng year, the term of Rev. Joseph Bradford Cleavers pastorate having expired. Mr. (leaver may leave or may stay, just as that gentleman and the congregation may agree. The names of Elder U. C. Brewer, of Rushville, Elder Alvin I. Hobbs, of Bloomington, 111., and Elder D. R. Vanbuskirk, of New York, have been mentioned by friends for the pastorate in case it is to be vacated.

The Deadfall. Deputy Prosecutor Elam thinks the members of the grand jury are prepared to do their duty in the matter of the combination deadfall business so soon as they meet and the witnesses can be brought before them. Mr. Elam says lawyers disagree about the game, some thinking the law will not reach U. He says that a recent decision by the supreme court of New Jersey, where the gambling laws are similar to those of this state, decided that pool-selling comes within he gambling act.

The Green Island Matter. As the readers of The News may know there is an island in the Ohio river near Evansville the jurisdiction of which is claimed by both Indiana and Kentucky. During Governor Hendricks’s term of office a survey was liegnn with the ostensible purpose of settling tbe boundary line, but as the party was “fixed” in the interest of the Kentucky Gov. Hendricks stopped it. Afterwards the legislature authorized the appointment of commissioners to fix the boundary and-settle tbe question of jurisdiction. Nothing has been done in the matter and now private parties who are litigating about boundary lines and low water marks want the authorities to help them out by having tbe commissioners referred to appointed and put to work. The fettlement of the gait depends upon the action of tbe states. When Governor Williams returns Attorney General Buskirk will write a letter.

The full benefit of fire insurance is alone realized, after property, which is insured in a good company is destroyed, and the adjuster nromptly comes along and after a fair examination gives a check for the loss. With this money, the loss is made good, the building soon repaired or replaced, and the oVner instead of sorrow is filled with joy. The FrankHn Fire Insurance Co., 6f this city makes some strong claims for business, ami from showing a good record in the past being well officered etc., merits a large patronage. For facts and figures call at their office, south east corner Market and Circle streeta.
