The city of Ft. Wayne pays Mayor Zollinger $l,BOO per year for h;'i,_s services. That’s considerably in excess of our Mayor’s salary. There is some talk of repealing, or at least modifying, the ordinance relating to the fire limits of this city. The argument advanced in favor of such a step is that several parties would erect frame buildings on Main street who do not feel justified in erecting structures of brick. - ‘Wheat in this neighborhood never looked finer at this time of year than it does now. Grass is splendid and the hay crop promises well. Oats look well, though the breadth sown is not large. Corn is all planted and is sproutihg nicely, though there is a littie complaint in this respect. Some of the farmers have commenced working their fields. Pastures are excellent 'and the stock therefore thrives. Some fears are entertained that the hogs will be stricken with cholera, as thereare someindications. Altogether our farmers are getting along nicely, and if the war continues in Europe we will certainly contribute our share toward supplying her armies with provisions. _ { '

The construction train men were promptly on hand to repair the track and raise the freight cars onto the rails.
