deeper Into the meshes of the law. The grand jury indicted her this week on tho •erious charge of perjury. The charge is in four counts, and relate I* false testimony in recent trials before the justices. Her trial for keeping house of bad character, will not come up in the drcuit -court until the 35th Inst.
THR, police on Wednesday evening, gathered in a troublesome lot of tramps, sixteen in number, who have been beadquartering over tbe river. In bringing tbern over to jail, one attempted to escape by climbing through an opening in the bridge. He lost his footing and fell into the swift current below and was drowned. His name is not known and the body has not been recovered.
Thb authorities at Washington have officially notified W. R. McKeen that his lot on tbe corner of Seventh and Cherry street*, has been accepted for tbe government building. It is not probable that more than the foundation will be laid this season. It will probably be roofed in next season and finished the fallowing year. Uncle Sam moves slowly but sorely with his new buildings.
Thb snd and unexpected intelligence came yesterday of the death of Mra. D. M. Keodrick, niece of Mra. W. B. Tueil, which occurred at Albany, N. Y., Thursday night. Her hone, before marriage, was In Woithlngton, but she was well known bare from frequent visit*. Tbe funeral ssrvkes will be conducted at St. Stephen's to-morrow at three odock.
A wn*D storm attended with'results more fatal than any that has ever ooourred in this vicinity, swept through the neighborhood of day City, south east of this dty on the Wortbington rood, Monday evening about five o'clock. Six persona were killed outright, and a number seriously injured. A party of hunters from Pierson township, took refuge in a bridge near Neal's mill, on

Joseph Seely and Mr. Kay killed. The bouse of John Croft, on a farm belonging to W. B. Tueil, was destroyed. The family, together with some visitors, thirteen in all, started for the cellar. All did not succeed in reaching that placeof safety. Fred Fester and George Croft, one twenty-six years of age, and tbe other nineteen, were taken from the porch and carried nearly a quarter of a mile to the northeast snd dropped in a wbeatfield. Both were dead when found. Mrs. Wm. Williams waa carried about tbe same distance in an easterly direction. Her body was horribly bruised, and seemingly not atone was unbroken# Her little babe,three or four months old, was found, with head crushed, in the brancher of a fallen tree. Mrs. Croft, the only person left alive of tliOse who failed to reach the cellar, is seriously injured, but will probably recover. Not a particle of the house was left above grouod. A pillow, known to belong to this family, wss found at Lancaster, seven miles 'away. Other sections of country down that way suffered in demolished bouses, barns, a church olown down, trees uprooted, etc., but the above comprises the loss of life, unless there is to be added John Norman, who was getting out stave timber, near Lancaster and at last reports, had not been heard from. "POOR folks Will have poor ways" Is a remark tj&t came drifting into our window ojne day this week. The speaker was a passing lidy, neither young nor pcelty, and the words were addressed to a fashionably attired little girl who walked by her side. What called It forth we know not, but, judging from tbe tone of her voice, we are inclined to think she was instruct-ing the little one In the ethics of'society." Well, we suppose there is no use denying the proposition. Poor folks must of necessity have poor ways, butlt does not follow that people of wealth have better ones, and it is a positive wrong to teach a child to the contrary. There Is not much difference between the poor ways of poor folks and tbe poor ways of their more fortunate brethren, except that the first are born of circumstances and the latter are generally the outward expression* of Innate meanness. The difference is money qualification— that is all.
DAN O'LBARY, who was here the other day, as manager ot the Indianapolis club, is a character in more ways than one. Years ago he belonged to the Manchester^#®,) nine, and while in London, Ont., playing the Tecumsehs, was at the bat when a hit would have won the game. He went to the plate with with Wood In his eye, but was retired by Goldsmith on three strikes. It Is said he put up his hands and devoutly asked his Maker why he was in such hard luck. He also jias a habit of crossing himself when he goes to the bat. He is a devout Catholic, and very superstitious. It Is said that when released by the Worcester* last year In New York, he solemnly wished that tbey might never win a game on the trip, and they, by a strange coincidence, did not.
THB dealer In ice has suffered more than any other this season. Housekeepers who do take ice are taking but small quantities, while a great many families have not yet given their usual season's orders. In houses with good cellars ice can as yet scarcely be said to be a necessity, for the reason that we have not bad a week of genuinely warm vfeather, take it altogether. The most noticeable failing off in tbe demand, however, is in the instance of butchers and fruit and vegetable venders, who have been so far compelled to use but comparatively small quantities.

his partner in an effort to shake up the town, and break the monotonous dull nsss now prevailing in all departments of trade. With this end in view he takes half this page to mention some prices in what is termed "The Greatest Slaughter ever heard of in the history of the dry goods trade in Terre Haute." It will be found interesting and profitable reading for all who desire to economise in household expenditures. Their store will be kept open every evening during this special sale.
THB rain on Wednesday prevented the public display Inddent to Memorial Day, but It did not prevent tbe veterans from decorating tbe graves of their dead comrades, Interesting exercises were had at G. A. R. hall in tbe afternoon and at the Conjnregational church in tbe evening. Judge Rhoads spoke at the first named place And Ool. W. C. Wilson, of Lafayette, made the address In the evening.

AWNINGS AND COTS.
John Hanley, at 26 north Fourth street, has a large force now at work on awnings and cots. Nothing contributes more to comfort during the summer than awnings for windows.
