Two men were killed by lightning in Tippecanoe county, in the storm ot last Tuesday. Pat vin V. Ruuyau was killed while riding om a load of oats, and Marshall Lyon was killed while standing under a large tree. He was a school teacher aud took shelter under the tree while on his way home. He was not found until Saturday. April Ist fooled us all on the weather, the temperature starting out this morning a* - 20 degrees, which is 12 degrees below the fieeziug point, and 05 degrees be low what it was eight days before. It was a hard freeze and formed ice of considerable thickness. There is considerable fear that it may have damaged small fruit prospects to some extent.

“A mouutaiu of a mole hill” is what the ludianapolis papers acd other sheets opposed to Governor Haulv seem to have made of the Governor's position on the charge of date for the uuveiling of the Lawton monument. It is a safe guess that wheu the truth is knowu it was not the Governor’s place to make or unmake the date for the uuveiling of the statute, aud that there are still other considerations in the equation.—Williamsport Review.

There is one less Billy goat in the north portion of Jasper couuty than there was a few days ago. aud in hi> place there's a tract of country where the soil gives forth such a. promt: iug smell of coal oil a£ to lead to the belief that another Jas’ per couuty oil field is about to be discovered. It seems that O. A. Yeoman, the werchaut of Virgie. has beeu the owner of a Billy goat which was at ouce the pride aud terror of all No it beau Jasper, aud Ora also owned a big oil tank full of coal oil. Iu this tank was a bole and ui this hole was a plug, and it was a common amusement for ihe billy goat to butt at aud rub his head agaiust this plug. It was uot thought auy harm would result from this amusement ou Bill’s part and while he was doing that he wa.not eatiug up the family tinware, at auy rate. Iu au evil aud uu guarded hour, however, he knoek ed our the plug, aud before the calamity was discovered about 100 g.dlous of coal oil had ruu out aud was lost. Sentence of death was passed ou Billy aud executed 1 ef'ce Governor Hauly had time to tom mute the sentence. Mauy ills come from impure bood.
