INDIANA STATE NEWS.

Thx crop prospect in Wabash County is said to be excellent. Thebe is a lady living in Peru who shaves her upper lip regularly. She has to. The Evansville Journal has been enlarged and is now cut and parted like the Boston Globe. The Vincennes Sun puts itself squarely on the record in favor of English as the national language. A little girl named Fry fell from a swing, in Indianapolis, a few days ago and was fatally hurt. Thus far Indianapolis has done nothing to secure a proper representation of the State at the Centennial Exposition. The Bingham firm of distillers at Evansville have been found guilty of violating the revenue laws and fined SI,OOO. A YOUNG fellow named Pratt, agent for the C., R. & Ft. W. Railroad at Ridgeville, was accidentally killed a few days ago. Indianapolis hopes to induce Director Linderman to regard itself as the best possible location for the new United States Mint. •

The woolen-mill belonging to Roots & Co., at Connersville, was burned to the ground a few days since, involving a loss of $50,000. David Johnson was arrested in Fountain County a few days since for illicit distilling and held to bail in SI,BOO to await the action of the United States Court. The mother of Hon. John C. New, residing at Indianapolis, fell from a window in her son’s house the other day and was very seriously injured. She is seventyseven years old. Mbs. Rebecca Phillips, of Jeflerson County, is eiglity-six years old ; has thirteen living children, 101 grandchildren, 129 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren . The Bookwalter mansion,near Rob Roy, was * struck by lightning recently and pretty thoroughly shattered. There was no one in the house at the time, and so nobody was hurt. Little Stella Montz, of Madison, recently went to a drawer where a loaded pistol had been carelessly left, and in taking it out accidentally discharged it, the charge taking effect near the heart and killing her instantly. Miss Flora Turman receives the highest honor, the valedictory, at Asbury University this year; which is a decided triumph for those who advocated the admission of females, as well as no small honor for the young lady. —Chicago Tribune. The residence of Andrew Hartman, in Logansport, was entirely destroyed with all the furniture a few mornings ago. The family narrowly escaded burning to death, not waking until the fire had nearly cut off ail retreat from the house. Loss $lO,, 000. While a party were seining fish in the Kankakee River at Waldron, lately, one young man declared that he could remain under water longer than any of the others. He tried and w ent down, but did not come up until pulled out dead with grapplinghooks.

Thomas J. Gibson, who recently ran away with and married a fourteen-year-old daughter of John H. Adams, of Indianapolis, has been arrested for perjury, he having sworn that the girl was eighteen years old when he received a marriage license. Mr. Cassimer Kroener, of Evansville, a former member of the City Council, was taken with an insane fit the other day, and drawing a pistol he attempted to shoot his wife. He was disarmed, arrested, and, on being tried by a board of lunacy commissioners, adjudged insane. The Noblesville Ledger gives the following wool statist'cs: “ A flock of Leicester sheep, belonging to Jesse Hodson, of Washington Township, numbering twen-ty-four, yielded a few days ago 200 pounds of wool and an average for each fleece of eight pounds and a third.” The State Editorial Association recently in session at Indianapolis adopted a new constitution, and referred the proposition to meet all the editors of the Northwest at Philadelphia July 4, 1876, to the Executive Committee for action. A committee of seven was appointed to arrange for a grand reunion of Indiana soldiers in Indianapolis next fall. Over 100 of the leading citizens of Indianapolis, irrespective of party, recently tendered John C. New a public dinner previous to his departure for Washington to assume his official duties as Treasurer of the United States. Mr. New modestly declined the compliment for the reason that he had yet been untried in so responsible a position, and his ability to successfully discharge the duties are unproved. Mrs. Eliza Compton, who lived in Terre Haute thirty years ago, had been to New Orleans and seen persons buried there above the level of the ground, on account of water. She thought the idea good, and when she died, in 1845, she directed that her body should be placed in a vault above ground. Her wish was respected. Lately the vault has become dilapidated, one corner broken down and the skeleton of Mrs. Compton exposed to the public gaze. This mode of burial clearly has its disadvantages. The following Postmasters were appointed in Indiana during the week ending June 12, 1875: Belle Union, Putnam County, James N. Bourne; Deerfield, Randolph County, David S. Collins; Jonesborough, Grant County, Samuel R. Spence; Lawrence, Marion County, Isaac Records; Mahalasville, Morgan County, Thomas W. Kingsbury; New Comer, Delaware County, Philip Wooding; Rainsville, Warren County, C. H. Hoffman; Rolling Prairie, La Porte County, James Powell; Urneyville, Johnson County, Henry Fisher. William Friederburg, a Terre Haute grocer, was attacked and nearly beaten to death by a burglar a few mornings ago. He roomed in the rear of his store and for coolness had pulled the bed up near a window. The fastenings were insecure and the burglar opened the window and struck him fifteen times on the head with a heavy piece of iron. His skull was fractured by blows on the top of the head. The ruffian entered, secured $1,500 in money from his victim’s pocket-book and some loose change in the money-drawer, and left, leaving no clew. Friederburg wm not discovered until morning,

How a Brave Girl Defended Her Father.

’Squire Thomas Pyle and Charley Rednail took a contract together, a short time since, to remove the Catholic Church from He old location and place it on the comer where it now stands. Pending the completion of the contract a dispute selativeto money matters arose between them, Pyle claiming some S2OO due him, as he said, from Rednall. As the latter failed to come to time, Pyfe concluded to enforce the demand in his own way, and on Wednesday evening, having stowed in a cargo of tangle-leg, he armed himself with a rifle and started for Rednall’s house. Arriving at the fence surrounding the yard he rested the gun on the fence, with the muzzle pointed toward the house, evidently waiting for Rednall to put in an appearance. In the meantime Miss Lizzie Rednall, daughter of one of the parties, had noticed the approach of Pyle, and fearing danger to her father had notified him of the fact. Rednall, not thinking Pyle meant serious mischief, came out of his house, and picking up a crowbar started toward him. Pyle, seeing him coming, raised his gun aDd told him to stop and drop the crowbar or he would kill him. Rednall, fearing that hs would shoot, dropped the bar and stood still. Miss Lizzie all this time had kept close to her father. Pyle then ordered Rednall to get in front of him and go down town and get him S2OO, on the penalty of his life if he refused. Rednall started off, followed by Pyle with the gun drawn, while Lizzie kept close to Pyle for reasons which will appear hereafter. Upon reaching the corner of Fourth and Orange streets Lizzie attracted Pyle’s attention by a movement, and at the same time caught him by the arm and turned him around. Rednall noticed the maneuver, and immediately sprang upon Pyle, seizing his throat with one hand and the gun with the other. The men struggled furiously for some time, Rednall trying to get the gun from Pyle, and the latter trying to get it in position to shoot Rednall. In the melee the gun was discharged, fortunately without damage. The weapon being useless both men loosed their hold upon it and it fell to the ground and was immediately seized by Lizzie. In the struggle that followed the dropping of the weapon Pyle threw Rednall and was making it red-hot for him, when Lizzie, with the gun clubbed, came to the rescue and proceeded to belabor Pyle w T ith it, nor did she quit till she had broken the stock all to pieces. By the aid of his daughter Rednall was a little too much for Pyle, and, turning him, he held him down and dispatched his little son for a policeman. In a short time OfScer Knowles made his appearance in a hack. Springing out, he arrested Pyle and told him to get into the hack. Pyle, not feeling in a very good humdr, concluded to hit the boy for bringing the officer and, launching out his fist, hit him on the cheek, the blow not expending its force till caroming on the nose of Officer Knowles. The officer, justly indignant at this uncalled-for attack, struck back with his billy, which, missing Pyle, flew from his hand and crashed through the window of the hack. Pyle was finally persuaded into the hack and was driven to the sta-tion-house, muttering maledictions on the Rednall family in general and Lizzie in particular. —Chico (Cal.) Record.

Courtesy.

If from no other principle, young men would find that it paid best to be civil and polite to customers. Incivility is always a mark of ill-breeding; and a true gentle man could no more be guilty of discourt_ esy than of dishonesty. The following, from the New York correspondent of the Boston Journal, is as good as a whole volume—and even better—on the subject of commercial courtesy: In one of our large hotels a young man has a very large salary as room-clerk. He has faculty of stowing people in all sorts of unmentionable places in his hotel, and making the guests feel happy about it. His stock of politeness and good humor never runs empty. Stout, of the Shoe and Leather Bank, is celebrated for his financial success and for his inexhaustible good nature. He is never so busy but he has a kind word for the humblest. When they are rushing things in the bank Mr. Stout always finds time to say: “Take a seat; I’ll be at leisure in a moment.” A man came into the bank the other day and opened an account. “I came here,” he said, “not simply because I knew my money would be safe with you, but because you are always civil. I have been a depositor in Bank for many years. I went in to-day to see the cashier. I knew him when he had no society to boast of, and hardly money enough to pay for a dinner at a cheap restauiant. I laid my hat on the desk, which I suppose I had no business to do. He waved his hand with an imperious air, and said: ‘ Take this hat off.’ ‘“I removed my hat, when he said, ‘Now I will hear what you have to say.’ “ ‘ I’ve nothing to say to you,’ I replied. “ I went to the book-keeper, ordered my account to be made up, took the bank’s check for $42,000, and this I wish to de pqsit.” ’The President and cashier represent two styles of business common in New York. Sauciness does not bear a high commercial \alue among the financial men of the city.

Up in Moscow, Somerset County, Me., there is a school-house which is built of logs and boasts of a glass window. The cracks between the logs are all open—the hand could be thrust through anywhere. The building has four seats and will seat eight scholars. The teacher has no desk, but a flat stone to sit on. A short school is taught here every summer. Jones (who has walked the length of his lawn to expostulate with his milkman on cruelty to animals)—” Do you know what happened to Balaam ?’ Milkman—- “ Yes.” Jones—“ Well, what was it?” Milkman—“ The same thing that happened to me just now—a donkey spoke to him. Gollang!” How sweet is perfect understanding between man and wife. He was to smoke cigars when he wanted them, but he was to give her ten cents every time he indulged in one. He kept his word, and every time she got fifty cents ahead lie’d borrow It and buy cigars.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

String Beans.—Should he strung, broken in pieces, and boiled an hoar or two, and seasoned the same as shelled beans. Thebe seem to he few people who know it, but it is said to be nevertheless true, that if yon hold between your teeth a pair of scissors, a steel knife, or almost any other iron or steel substance, you will not weep daring the process of peeling onions. French Toast.—Beat four eggs very light, and stir with them a pint of milk; slice some baker’s bread, dip the pieces into the egg, then lay them in a pan of hot lard and fry brown; sprinkle a little powdered sugar and cinnamon on each piece and serve hot. If nicely prepared, this dish is quite equal to waffles. When you want to send her a line by postal card, write with the following preparation: Ten grains of hypho-sulphite of soda in sixteen teaspoonfuls of water. Then, you see, the postoffice clerks won’t know what you write. Heat brings out the writing. For chilblains cut up two white turnips without paring into thin slices ; put the slices into a tin cup with three large spoonfuls of best lard; let it simmer slow ly for two hours, then mash through a sieve; when cold spread it on a soft linen cloth and apply to the chilblain at night. Pressed Chicken. —Boil tender one or two chickens, remove the skin, and in taking the meat from the bones keep the light and dark separate. Chop and season with salt and pepper to taste, and place in alternate layers the dark and white meat in a meat-press, or other mold, adding a little of the liquor in which it was boiled. When cold, cut in slices. It makes delicious sandwiches.

Cloud Cake. —Whites of five eggs, one cup of sugar, one-half cup of butter, two cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls bakingpowder and two teaspoonfuls lemon essence ; red analine size of a small pea, a spoonful of hot water on it. Take a little more than half a cup of cake batter, mix the thoroughly-dissolved analine well into it. Put in a layer of cake, drop the rose-colored batter around over it, another layer of cake, then more rose-cake, and soon. Frost and finish with white and rose-colored almonds if you like. — InterOcean. All carpenters know how soon the butt end of chisels split when daily exposed to the blow of a mallet or hammer. A remedy to prevent this consists simply in sawing or cutting off the round end of the handle, so as to make it flat, and to attach by a few small nails on the top oi it two round disks of sole-leather, so that the end becomes similar to the heel of a boot. The two thicknesses of leather will prevent all further splitting, and if in the course of time they expand and overlap the wood of the handle they are simply trimmed off all ardund. If two persons are to occupy a bedroom during the night, let them step on a weighing scale as they retire, and then again in the morning, and they will find that their actual weight is at least a pound less in the morning. Frequently there will be a loss of two or more pounds, and the average loss throughout the year will be a pound of matter, which has gone oft from their bodies, partly from the lungs and partly through the skin. The escaped matter is carbonic acid and decayed animal matter or poisonous exhalation. This is diffused through the air in part, and part absorbed by the bed-clothes. If a single ounce of wool-cotton be burned in a room, it will so completely saturate the air with smoke that one can hardly breathe, though there can only be one ounce of foreign matter in the air. If an ounce of cotton be burned every half hour during the night the air will be kept continually saturated with smoke, unless there be an open window or door for it to escape. Now, the sixteen ounces of smoke thus formed is far less poisonous than the sixteen of exhalations from the lungs and bodies of tw r o persons who have lost a pound of weight during the eight hours of sleeping; for, while the dry smoke is mainly taken into the lungs, the damp odors from the body are absorbed both into the lungs and into the pores of the whole body. Need more be said to show the importance of having bedrooms well ventilated, and of thoroughly airing the sheets, coverlids and mattresses in the morning, before packing them up in the form of a neatly-made bed . Exchange.

Marguerite Basque and Over-Skirt.

The Marguerite basque and over-skirt when combined make a most graceful and stylish over-dress, suitable for grenadine, Mexicaine, guipure silk, de bege, and a variety of other fabrics. The basque has the long side bodies that are used on many of the handsomest French dresses this season, and the Marguerite eftect is given to the back by extending the whalebones to the end of the basque, making it fit plainly over the tournure. The seams of the long side-bodies begin on the shoulders and extend the whole length of the back, giving a shapely, slender appearance even to full backs and round shoulders. The revers forms a pretty Marie Antoinette collar in front and passes down the back to the waist in bretelle shape. The Marguerite over-skirt has a deep apron front, slopes up prettily on the sides and is caught up in a panier puff behind by sashes attached to the belt and tied in a bow under the puff. The arrangement is very simple, the style is one of the best of the season, and less material is required than for any other fashionable over-skirt. For black grenadine dresses this over-skirt is draped by sashes made of a width of black gros grain cut in two, or, if the wearer prefers it, the whole width may be used. The wide sash ribbons that are now soli so cheaply -will also answer for this purpose. Plain canvas grenadines are embroidered and edged with lace or fringe, or with knife-pleating. The openchecked Mexicaine, brocaded, plaid, clouded, velvet-striped, and matelasse grenadines are not embroidefSQ but are trimmed with pleating or lace; French laces of such good quality that they Jesemble Chantilly are used on the firifst grenadines. The lower skirts of these grenadine dresses are now made of silk, trimmed with flounces of grenadine or of silk, according to fancy, or perhaps with both; thus a silk flounce is heavily shirred and is edged with knife-pleating of grejijdlne,— Bator,

Jones gave a lawyer a bill to be collected, to the amount of S3O. Calling for it after a while, he inquired if it had been collected. “Oh, yes!” said the lawyer, “ I have it all for you.” “ What charge for collectingf” “ Oh!’*’ said the lawyer, laughing, “ I’m not going to charge you; why, I have known you ever since you were a baby, and your father before you; S2O will be about right,” handing over $lO. “ Well,” said Jones, as he meditated upon the transaction, “ it’s darned lucky he didn’t know my grandfather, or I shouldn’t have got anything!” He who prays for his neighbor will be heard first for himself.

Glad Tidings for the slaves of King Alcohol. How many a manly form is palsied; how many a noble mind is destroyed; how many a priceless soul lost through the curse of strong drink! To the despairing victims of the Satanic tyrant, Alcohol, whose shattered nerves and trembling limbs and racking headaches seem to find no relief except in the renewed use of the fatal poison which brings them every day nearer to their miserable end, we announce glad tidings of great joy! Db. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters contain not a single drop of alcohol in any form, but are a sovereign remedy for the ills of drunkenness. They restore tone and strength to the system, and entirely eradicate the pernicious appetite for liquor. Try a few bottles of Vinegar Bitters and you will never crave strong spirits again, hut find your health repaired, your mind restored, and be once more a man in the best sense. Health is cheap when Vinegar Bitters are $1 a bottle. 40

If Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is half as valuable as people say it is, no family should be without it. Certainly no person, be he lawyer, doctor, minister, or of any other profession, should start upon a journey without ,t. No sailor, fisherman, or woodsman should !>e without it. In fact, it is needed wherever there is an aelic, sprain, cut, bruise, sough or cold. Farmers and “ Horse Men” are continually inquiring what we know of the utility of Sheridan's Cavalry Condition Powders , and in reply we would say, through the columns es this paper, that we have heard from hundreds who have used them with gratifying results; that is also our exDerience.

A Disabled Vessel Navigated by a Woman.

A vessel which arrived at this port last Friday brought the intelligence that the bark Rebecca Crowell, which left New York March 6 for Buenos Ayres, became disabled during a severe gale three days after leaving here. Several of the spars and sails were carried away and the Captain and first mate were injured to such an extent that they were confined to their berths throughout the rest of the voyage and rendered incapable of managing the vessel. There was no other person on board except the Captain’s wife who understood navigation, and she undertook the task of conducting the bark to its point of destination. The second mate was a young man twenty years old, able to take the helm but ignorant of the process of making observations. The woman then assumed the command of the vessel, boxed the compass, took observations, ascertained the latitude and longitude, maintained her place upon the bridge and directed the course of the vessel. After exercising control for fifty-eight days, during which the vessel encountered violent gales and shipped heavy seas, the Captain’s wife, worn out and exhausted with her labors, conducted the vessel with its valuable cargo safely into the port of Buenos Ayres. A purse was made up for her her arrival. — N. T. Tribune. An exchange says: “We’ll ride two miles to see two brothers under twelve years of age go to bed together without having a dispute about something.”
