Last Saturday night, at a house of prostitution in this town, which the town board sh >uld break up or resign, a mail named llrokcs got his head broke with a brick, ktiucks, or something of that sort. These ins Aitious, whose tendencies are the high-way to hell, ought to be suppressed, or else those who run them should be made to take up abode where their crimes will be a less offense to the people. A number of our representative men have been playing ball on tho streets quite often the past week. Aud the town marshall lias often engaged with them. This kind of conduct is what makes the boys of the towu so indignant hr lieu they are not allowed to do the same thing. ' First set a good example, and then an ordinance lot polite and civil conduct will not be so hard to euforce, aud will be more uearly just. Cincinnati, ^ which Mrs. J. B. Hoover, who was injured some mouths ago while on the C. V. & C. railroad, is still in a critical condition at her home iu Uuion. It will be remembered that there was a fruit car among the others. This beiug uext to the engine aud very heavy, caused the track to spread, when the cars in the train turned entirely upsidedown, so that the passengers fell ou their heads. Quite a number of law-suits are liable to grow out of the circumstances attending the wreck.

Elopement, T. C. Nelson, cast of Winslow, this county, a well known young farmer aud stock-raiser, while in town last Thursday, most reluctantly explained the sad and aggravating circumstances pertaiuing to the elopemeut ot his wife with his younger brother, Byron Nelson. T. C. Nelson deals in stock and must be from home a groat deal. Lie had his brother Byroii at work for him, aud thought it fortunate that hie wife could have the protection and care of his brother duriug his absence. It seems that ueithcr Byron uor his sister-in-law bad sufficient virtue and moral sentimeut to keep them in tine “straight aud narrow way,"and while the coufldlng brother aud husband was engaged iu business troro home, a criminal flirtatious, as it may be called, was going ou at home. The wife's affection for lier husband, if she ever had any, were lavished upon the brother-in-law, by whom, from the lack of manhood that be ought to have had, either really or pretentiously, they were reciprocated. The two are gone uow, the Lord knows where! However, it don’t matter. They look about two hundred dollars lu money with them. This money Mrs. Nelson obtained by having her husbud’s check for that amount cashed arthe Citizens State Bank iu this place. When the money is gone, Mrs. Nelsou’s character already ruiued, and poverty stares the wicked couple tu the face, she will, in alt probability, return to her husband, and, as has been the case in this couuly before, on bended knees implore her out-rag-ed husband to redeem her from the bell into which she has fallen. Fortunately, there are no childr*-u iu the family. Nelson and his wife were married about ten or twelve yean ago. One child was born to them during this time, but it is dead: ami, for the mother's own good, she would better be in the grave with tier precious babe. The affair has startled the entire community, and the relatives and friends feel most iudiguaat h'Uere ought to by a means of putting ! a check upon such crimes. ’Fhc law | ought to be severer and more swiftly executed against the perpetrators of such crime against (lie community. Since writing the above we learn that Sheriff Ilium field overtook tlhc parties at MtVernou, Id., ami re- ! turned with the woman, who says she will not lire with her husband. The next couuty fair promises to be one of the most iuterestiug and profitable ever held in Pike county. There will be a fine display of farm products of all kinds. Horses, cattle, sheep, swine, poultry, and everything the farmer is interested in will positively be exhibited in larger numbers a.id i better shape than has heretofore characterized the fair, which has always been good. The floral bails are expected to be in fitter shape than ever, j and the races will be atteuded by t he best speed horses in Indiana and ad- ; joining States. There will be searee11v a day but tint will be worth the i while to atteud. Besides this, it is a | place where men and women can '■ study their business to the greatest ! advantage, no difference what their : business may be.

The usual drunks on the streets Saturday night characterized the town as worse that the good name of the place heretofore would permit.
