—State Superintendent J. 11. Smart hias revised the forms: of reports of trustees to suptrintendents, and superintendents to himself, and made new and explicit rules by which the more complicated estimates are to be made, and is taking every possible means to secure statistics that may be relied upon.. It is a fact that-much of ‘what is called school statistics isso inaccurate as_to be. utterly worthless. We are glad to know:that the superintendent- has -gone to work in this direction. - =~ _ }—A case of -poisoning from eating a:mushroom is thus reported by the South Bend Zribune: “James Taylor, time-keeper at the new Oliver Works, was severely poisoned some days since by eating a small pieceof a supposeil mushroom. Ie ateit raw and immediately felt a smarting of the throat, succeeded by a burning sensation in the stomach and imhiting, -which lasted for six hours. The .antidote taken was strong coffee. It is believed by some that the real mushroom is poisonious out of season.” .

~—ln. calling attention to quite a readable little story, ‘the Elkhart Observer with much truth rbrhzu-k§ that. “without love in marriage there’can be no true or“-pernin'nent lui'ppinoss without Which fortune, good socicty, fame are but empty baubles. -As the wealthy invalid. would give a fortune to have his health restored, s 0 the millionaire, whose hopes have been blasted by an ill-advised marriage, would gladly exchange places with his liveried servant, if by so doing' he could obtain that peace of' mind which comes -only from a I’l_llion of hearts as well as hands.”” T

* -—The treasurer of Jackson county, having been informed of ill.sgaulces where deputy. collectors have charged unlawful fees, publishes the following explanationin regard to suecl fees: The sum total of gfll “charges which ~collectors of delinquent taxes -can lawfully make, in cases where o levy or sale is made, is-65 cents- for .costs ‘and 5 per cent. added to the amount charged against delinquents .on ‘the “tax duplicate. Thus if the delinqueney was $3, the collector would be en-it;i-,tle‘(l to 65 cents fees and 25 cents percentage, in-all making £5.90. But in ‘cases of levy and sale, the costs are largely increased.

The managers of the fortheoming Centennial entertainment at Indianapolis have decided on the recitation- at that time of an “original poem as & feature of the oc.casion, competition for the honor of its” production to be confined to the ‘State.

—The time for the Fair is rapidly approaching.

—TLast Saturday afternoon a heartrending accident occurred, a few,miles west, of Goshen, by which a fi&rmer named Amos Bechtel killed his daughter, a promising girl 'of el'evén years.

Mr. Bechtel was threshing, and the daughter was employed in carrying the grain bags to the machine to be filled. with ‘wheat. The farmer was in the act of 'stepping( over the belt, lxolcli‘l]g in his hand a heavy pitchfork, which was accidentally caught by the rapidly revolving belt and thrown into.the air. - As the fork was Jescending with great force, the tines struck the unfortunate girl in the temple and 'pe_uetruteil her brain, from the effects of which slie died. :The parents ard almost crazed.

. —The Lagrange Standard of last week publishes a lengthy article copied from the N. Y. 7%imes, unfler;the caption of “Protection against Lightning,® and editorially offers this.-ad-vice:” ‘*Now, let no one after reading that article-be led into the purchase of some nonsersical hollow or twisted contrivanee, when the truth. is that any kind 6f a rod is as good as another, and a house is safe enough, for all practieal purposes, without-any. The principal ‘use of "a rod fo a house is the production of comfortin the mind of the owper during a thunder storm, and if this ease can be obtained just as well frpm a cheap rod as -a costly one, remember the hard times, and admonish the hollow-rod peddler to take up his kit and walk” We have some doubts as to the exact correctness of the St(mu?a’}vl’# views on lightning rods; butrleave it to the agents to set Bro.

—Last Friday evening the residence of Silas Harper, some three miles west of town, was destroyed’ by fire. The mémhers of the family were in-the house, except two of- the boys, who were at the door w:ishing their feet, preparatory to going to bed, when Mr. H. noticed a light shining in the dooryard and remarked to his wife that some of the neighbors must be burning stsaw. “The boys overheard the remark, and stepping out into the dooryard discovered that the flames were issuing from the roof of the house.. They immediately 'gaVe the alarm and the’_ family set to work to save their household goods, There was but little time to work ere the building was a mass of émoking ruins, but we’'are informed that nearly everything from the lower story was saved. A considerable amount of clothing and other valuables which were up stairs were consumed. The loss is estimated at from $1,460 to $1,500 and.was partial1y covered by insurance. E ' MY, Joseph _Henderson' has had the good luck to recover his stolen horse, of which mention was made in last week’s BANNER, and gives us the followin g:particulars: Having tracked the thief to Fulton, Fulton county, this State, he found the horse in possession of one John Poorman, the Jatter having got him, in exchange for a fbay mare, from a man named Petty, living rfiear Roann. The thief who stole the horse from this place, and who traded him to Petty, turned round on the same night after making the trade and stole another horge, harness and open buggy, with which he made his escape and has not been heard of since. The latter horse was a brown, about 16 hands high, with white slip in the face, and_ was five years old. He was a fine-appearing, well-bodied animal and a fair trotter, but from a ‘peculiar carriage of the head, something after the style of 8 pointer dog in pursuit of game, and which was particularly noticeable, he had been dubbed “The Bee Hunter.” We give these particulars for the benefif of the purtics interested, in the hope that it ei (o ik Al 10 VG CapLulo 0L lae viaiel, o

After a -slilence of a few weeks, I again take my pen in hand to scribble a few items. Quite an accident occurred, a few days ago, on the farm of Ephraim Skinner near this place, the- particulars of , which are as follows: Freedom Gandy’s machine was threshing wheat, when the large‘bel;t flew off, scaring the team belonging to Jonas Cook, causing it ‘tQ run, which .also started the other horses that were hitched in the powet, and while running one of Mr. Cook’s horses got one of his hind legs under the tumbling shaft and it was so horribly broken as to render it necessary to shoot the animal to relieve its sufferings. The horse was a valuable one and is quite alossto M Cook. 0 - o | This is said to be one of the most backward years for farming that we’ have had for a long time, and I think the saying is truthful.

—The number: of teams in town last Saturday was simply -immense.— Farmers, with their teams heavily loaded with wheat, came from beyohd the town of Lagrange, from the vieid nity ‘of Columbia City, Larwill, Pierceton, Warsaw, Syracuse, Milford, and other —points ' within a radius of twenty miles. . The liberal I)l,'ices paid by our wide-awake grain btiyers remina tillers of the soil that Ligonier. is without exception the best grain market in this portion of Indiana.--From 8 to 13 centts. per bushel above the figures of other markets is an’ dtem that the farmers cannot afford to’ overloek. /|

Every Worbp rs Trur.—Charles D. Warner expresses our opinion exactly, when he pays the following tributeto St. Nicholas, published Ly Seribner & Co., 654 Broadway, N.

Ido not see how it can -be made any better, and If the children don’t like it, I think it is time to begin to change the kind of children in this country.” :

. The Multiplication of Diseases. Diseases multiply. One bqgété another. A trifling indispositgn' may, therefore, originate a complication of dangerous maladies. Indigestion be-. gets far more fi;)ll'midable diseases; a multitude of ailments are traceable to constipation; fever and ague unhinges the entire nervous system, and is therefore the source of the protean ailments which affeet that pdrtion of. the. human .organism. = Hostetbter’s Stomach Bitters, however, whether resorted tq at the inception of those disorders of the stomach, bowels or liver, which give birth to the majority of diseases and disabilities, or taken when they have ripened into formida- | ble maturity, dare alike powerful to cure. - The process of recovery is, ofcourse, longer when the malady has gained headway, but it is none the less certain. Dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness, kidney complaint and in-' termittent fever, invariably yield to the operation of the great alterative and invigorant. L 0 n-19-W5,
