Less than four cents per week will pay for it. —Landlord Fleming has purchased Mr. Tumbleson’s interest (one half) in the Ligonier House for $4,000. This is an indication that “Pap” Fleming in‘tends to stay. L ‘

—Threshers in the Thos. Butt neighborhood inform us that the yield of wheat there runs from 25 to 35 bushels per acre. Mr. Butt realized 35 bushels to the acre all around. —Attention is directed to the professional card of H. G. Zimmerman, Esq., on the first page. Mr. Z. is a reliable and capable attornsy to whom ‘cases may be intrustea with entire confidence. : **J. 8. Ohlwine has on hand a newly selected stock of dry goods, notions, boots, shoes, hats, caps, &e., &c., which he sells extremely cheap for cash. Also keeps a good line of groceries and pays the highest market price for produce. Call and see him, two doors north of John Weir’s. , —lt has been discovered that a reservoir of the purest artesian water underlies the whole town of Marion, on the C, W. & M. railroad, at an average depth ot sixty feet. Dr. Hess and Joseph J. Hall have wells at their resldences ylelding a flow of 10,000 gallons in 24 hours. ; ; —The immense wheat crop is heiping the farmers handsomely. One of them, the otvher day, paid off, with the ‘proceeds of his crops, notes amounting to $1,200. The notes had yet eight months to run until due, but the farmer wisely determined to have them canceled at the earliest moment.

—On Tuesday morning Mr. Jacob McNutt found in the corner of a field near Grisamer station; a few miles west of Ligonier, a box of shoes, carefully concealed beneath a lot of briars. The presumption is that the box was stolen from a freight car and concealed as above stated. to be disposed of as the thief might deem prudent. —At the request of Mr. Braden, of the firm of Braden & Peck, proprietors of the Empire Flouring Mills, we stepped into their capacious mill on Tuesday and took a general look at matters and things. Everything in connection with the mill was in good running order and we are glad to learn that the firm is doing so well. Mr. B. informed us that they had just - contracted with Joseph Whan, of Ft. Wayne, to furnish them an entire new out-fit of bolting cloths, one additional chest of bolts and purifier, corn meal bolt and power corn sheller. This, in connection with other improvements recently made, will give them the most complete mill in this section of country. —The Valparaiso Messenger says that I. I. F. Wosika, a former resident of Ligonier, was taken suddenly and severely ill on last Wednesday night., At first he supposed it was simply an attack of cholera morbus; but as he kept growing worse and suffering intense pain, he had Dr. A. M. Vincent called In, who administered some strong medicine to relieve the patient from the severe pain which he was suffering.— The result of the treatment was the ejecting of a tape-worm .from the patient’s stomach measuring 125 feet in length. Mr. Wosika says he has had frequent attacks of a similar character, and that they date back to a time when he was about twelve years of age; but he had never been able to account for their cause until now. Mr. Wosika, though weak, is again able to attend to business and says he never felt so well in his life, .

—An agricultural ' journal says a cheap lot of manure may be made of &n old carcass of a horse or CcCow, etc., Wwhich are drawg away to the woods to pollute the atmosphere. Do nvot do this, but put down four or five loads of muck or sod, roll the carcass on it and sprinkle it over with quicklime, covering over immediately with sod or mold sufficient to make with that already beneath, twenty good sized wagonloads, and you will have twenty-five dollars’ worth of the best of fertilizers in less than a year, and no fears need be felt in applying to any crop, One beauty of this plan is, the animals need not be moved far away, there not being the least stench. All animals which you unfortunately lose can be utilized in this way and can be made to go a great way in replacing them. Smaller animals, such as sheep, calves, dogs .and cats, can be treated in the sawme manner, with about the average amount of sod or muck proportionate to their size. When possible, place three or four in one pile, as the labor to covering would be proportionately less; but it is not much work to make a heap of any animal, however small or large, e :

—Ligonier is ahead—on base ball. *t All white hats sold at cost, at the Ladies’ Bazaar. —The Marshal is busily engaged in grading Pigeon street road. . - —Don’t forget the cemetery meeting on ‘Thursday afternoon of next week. —Don’t fail to attend the yearly meeting at the Christian Church which commences Saturday, Aug. 3d. —Notwithstanding the reported plenteousness of huckleberries they are quite hard to get, excepting at disproportionately high prices. —At the meeting of the Town Board last Friday arrangements were made for the refunding of-the town indebtedness at 6 per cent. interest. - **ls coming! S. M, Long, agent for the celebrated A. R. Dickey’s Young Giant Grain Grader and Seed Separator, will be in town in a few days. It is the boss mill, and they challenge the world. Watch for ’em. —The Rome City 7%mes seems to think that the “little” peccadillos that of late have scandalized society at Albion are chargeable to the “peculiar” kind of meat that is worked up into Albion bolognas. If that be true, it would be well to ‘exterminate every b—ovine in the county. , —The special engine which passed through here Sunday afternoon about three o’clock, made the trip from Chicago to Erie in 914 hours. The engine was hired by P. N. Shephard of Chicago, to visit his mother who is seriously ill in Erie. The price paid was $225, the Elkhart Review says.

~—The road law as- amended by the last legislature, requires the road tax lists to be placed in the hands of the supervisors by the township trustee by the first of August, that persons desiring to work out their road tax can do so during that month. Trustees should make a note of this and govern themselyes accordingly. — Not many years ago the tomato, regarded as a curiosity, or as a mere cucumber of the ground, was plucked from its vine only to be fed to the pigs. Mankind has however supplanted the pig in its consamption, and the statistics show that the value of tomatoes canned last year, to say nothing of those otherwise used, was $1,600,000. —JF. W. Shinke is building a brick dwelling on the lot adjoining his residence. on the south. The main building is to have a frontage of 30 feet and a depth of 18 feet; the wing 18x18, two stories high; the kitchen 14x15 ft., one story. Mr. Shinke expects to make this one of the most comfortable dwellings in town. There are few more energetic workers than F. W.

—Cyrus Kimmell, 214 miles south of Ligonier, threshed from 26 acres 914 bushels of wheat, besides 25 bushels from rakings. Four acres of the above vielded 161 bushels. This was from a piece amply protected from storms, while the other 22 acres were exposed and the wheat considerably blown down. Nire hundred and thirty-nine bushels of wheat from 26 acres of land is pretty good. ‘ —lf you want to see good times, money plenty, and everything lively, let every man pay up what he owes, or at least, pay part of it. No one but what can pay something, if 1t is only a quarter. There~is plenty of money in the country, and never a better wheat crop, as well as all other kinds of erops this season ; so shell out, and distribute your money around, and it will seem and be as plenty as it was in war times. And the people will be more cheerful and happy if they can see such evidences of prosperity and plenty.—Goshen Democrat. : \

—Arrangements were perfected on Monday last by the citizens of Syracuse for a grand social party at the Kelley House, in that pir~e on Friday evening, August 1. A grand time is expected, and ‘an invitation is extended to any one in this city that would like to be present. The doctor has spared ne pains in making Syracuse a pleasant place to spend the warm summer months, and this party has been arranged to show the appreciation in which the people of that place and vicinity hold the doctor and his estimable lady.— Warsaw Indianian.

« —The wife of Elder Wm. H. Hall, and mother nf James Hall of the Hawpatch, died at Mitchellville, lowa, on the 20th of last May, of cancer in the mouth. She was married to Elder Hall in this county June 10, 1851. The couple lived at Wolcottville three years, moved to Michigan in 1856, then to Towa in 1865, living in Peoria City, Polk county, until 1869, when they located at Mitchellville and made it their home until Mrs. Hall’s death. She was buried at Peoria City by the side of a daughter who was interred there in 1866. Iler life was that of a faithful and true Christian woman. —The editor of the Albion New Era served sixteen years in the war of the rebellion. We distinctly remember, as he belonged to our regiment. We fought side by side, he in a corn-field somewhere in Noble county, and we publishing a democratic paper in Warsaw, Mr. Prickett has got so used to his kind of war-fare that long after corn-planting season he waves the sanguinary garment to encourage himself to storm the battlements of a formidable looking cornhill. ‘We don’t doubt his bravery, but the brave are not al- - ways fair. Hence those blood articles in the New Era.— Warsaw Union. -, .—W.B. Domer, of North Manchester, this State, is now in town selling a book entitled the “Royal Path of Life.” Thisbook is recommended by the most eminent professors and literary men of the day to be the best of the kind that was ever published. Every page is alive with sparkling truths and practical wisdom; the contents are stern, frank, and remind one of ‘reading the proverbs-of the Bible. It is a book that should adorn every family table, and ought to be lead by young and old. If its teachinlgs were carried out, peace and good will among men, charity and love toward all would be thereby largely advanced. Mr. Domer desires the courtesy and patronage of the citizens of Perry township, to whom the work will')prove in the highest degree to be‘ inferesting, instructive and yaluable,

—Over 2,000 bushels of huckleberries have been shipped from Walkerton, this season. v ‘ - L —Alva Burnett, of Lagrange county, expects to obtain one thousand bushels of apples from his orchard this season. : - —lt’s “after harvest,” now, fellowcitizens. Time to redeem those promises with greenbacks or standard dolars. —All should go out_to hear Elder Monroe, of California, preach on Saturday and Sunday at the Christian Church. It will be a rare treat. —Straus Brothers have purchased the Pierce property now occupied by Sam Holland and Mrs. Belt. This purchase makes the erection of a large brick block next year more probable than ever. . —llt is our sad duty to announce the death of Mrs. Stratton, daughter of our esteemed fellow-townsman, T. Hudson, which occurred at Wheaton, 111., on Saturday last. Her disease was consumption. She was an amiable, intelligent lady, held in high esteem by all who knew her. She was about 24 years of age. "

- —Dr. Hazelton, a New York capitalist who owns the Ligonier school house bonds, bearing interest at the rate of 9 per cent., has agreed to- take the new bonds to be issuéd in lieu of the former at the rate of six per cent. This lopping off of three per centum on a $ll,OOO debt will afford quite a saving to the tax-payers of Ligonier. —Colonel William C. Williams, of Noble county, whose name has frequently appeared in these columns, has sent W. A. Lowe a complete reiease from all and any interest he may have ever had in the property of his former wife, Mrs. Louisa Williams, of Philadelphia. Mrs. Williams has now made her point and is probably satisfied.— Indianavolis Sentinel. : : —Mrs. Jarvis Peck and Mrs. Dr. Gard arranged a very enjoyable picnic for little girls, in Wolf’s grove, yesterday. The little folks enjoyed themselves finely. It would be a good plan to have such pic-nics frequently—every few days, so that @il the children in town could have a little out-door enjoyment. Well-managed picnics in a beautiful grove near home are far more beneficial than tiresome and costly excursions to distant points. —Mr. James L. Martin, of Dunkirk, Ohio, has placed upon the door leading from our sanctum into the composing room a door check—a new invention, novel in construction, useful in the highest degree, and necessary in every household; an article that everybody ought to have upon their doors as a safeguard against accidents on windy or stormy days. This useful little article can be seen by calling at the Ligonier House. Territory forsale. . — Our-excellent friend, John Morrow, has made sale of another of his famous Clydesdale colts—‘Tom Sayers,” two years old. The sale was made about four weeks ago, to Edward Irwin, of Missouri, who cheerfully paid $4OO for the eolt, which, by the way, is pronounced-a very promising animal. Thus, from the sale of two 2-year old Clydesdales Mr. Morrow has realized the snug sum of sBoo—certainly enough to amply recompense him for the trouble and expense of raising them! 2 —llt has been currently reported for several days that Henry Hostetter raised 700 bushels of wheat off of 10 acres of ground on his fa:m north of town. Seventy bushels to the acre is good, but the Squire has some reluctance about vouching for the truthfulness of the report. We caused him to be “interviewed” on the subject this morning, with this result: The ’Squire says the 10 acres referred to yielded heavily, but he feared 700 bushels was rather large. - “However,” smilingly remarked the ’Squire, “I am engaged in constructing a bay window at my resi; dence. Eyerybody has been putting up bay windows, and I thought I must have one too. But mine varies from those of other folks’ —~mine.is a sort of a “sorrel,” a square window.” 'That’s all our reporter could learn from the "Squire in regard to the 700 bushels of wheat from a teu-acre field. i

Base Ball. The “Stars,” of Middlebury, visited Ligonier for the first time last F'riday and played a friendly game of baseball with the “Star Lights” of this place. So much had been said about the wonderful plays made by the “Stars” that our boys were ready to acknowledge themselves beat before going into the field. But they were full of pluck and resolved to do or die in the attempt. The end of the game proved quite a surprise to the “S. L.,” as well as to the “Stars,” who felt they had a clear walk-a-way. J.E.McDonald, of -Columbia City, did the umpiring and did it well, at least all the boys say so, with the exception of a few of the yisiting club who were inclined to be quite quarrelsome, and took their defeat very much to heart. The 'following is Tl

HORSFORD’S BREAD PREPARATION A Superior and Highly Scientific Preparation. More Convenient and Healthful than Cream Tartar and Soda. - Prof. CHARLES S. GAUNT, Professor of Chemistry in the Philadelphia Univergity of Medicine and Surgery, Professor of Chemistry and Natural Phiosophy in the Wagner Free Institute, and late Professor of Chemistry and Industrial Science in Girard College, says: : : “I regard Horsford’s Bread Preparation as a superior and highly scientific preparation.” ; From ORANGE JuDpD, Editor of the American Agriculturist : “We have been using Prof. Horsford’s Self-Raising Bread Preéparation for a year or two past, and find it very convenient for quickly producing light biscuit, cake, ete., and shall continue its use. While more convenient than the usual “Soda and Cream of Tartar,” we fall in with Prof. Horsford’s idea that it 1s also more healthful.” 5 Prof. RoODNEY WELCH, Lecturer on Chemistry at the Hahnemann Medical ‘College, of Chicago, says: “The greatest improvement ever made in raising bread without the use of yeast, is the process of Prof. Horsford, of Harvard University.” < M. H. HENRY, M. D., the celebrated physician of New York, says: : “The use of Horsford’s Bread Preparation offers admirable means for the introduction -of a valuable element intc the system with the food of everyday life.” . : "

The Vertical Feed, as now perfected and applied to “The New Davis Sewing Machine,” is admitted by the best living experts to be the greatest advance in sewing mechanism since the invention of Sewing Machines. “The Davis” does every variety of sewing possible with the old underfeed machines, and in addition it accomplishes an “immense range of beautiful work ntterly impossible for any other Machine to duplicate,” which is convincing proof of the superiority overall competitors. The simplicity, ease of management and effectual manner in which the “Vertical Feed” overcomes the “many faults and defects” of ‘all underfeed machines is surprising. : Bate ; o L Any one needing a Sewing Machine will regret having bought any other after seeing the “New Dayvis.” S L Machines in operation and for sale at F.
