£l)c JniJcpcnbcnt. WALKERTON, INDIANA. March 26.18»2~ W. A. ENDLEY, Editor. Chicago has unearthed another set of boodlers among the city aldermen. Editor Gil Shanklin, of the Evansville Courier, is being boomed a little by some of the democratic papers of southern Indiana for governor. Hon. Roger Q. Mills has been appointed to till out the unexpired term ot Senator Reagan, resigned, as I nited States senator from Texas. There are about a dozen men in this city who ought to take treatment for the drink habit.—LaPorte Argus. Only a dozen of that kind in LaPorte? You are exceedingly fortunate. Judge V illiam A. Woods’ nomination has been confirmed as a United States circuit judge. The gentleman had quite a close shave, however, as he received only a majority of one vote in tiie senate. It is said that Editor Wadsworth of the LaPorte Argus, and George’ Eord, of South Bend, are candidates for delegates from the Thirteenth district to the democratic national convention. The list of candidates is now, with the addition of the above two, represented by one candidate from each county in the district.

In speaking of that class of mei who seem to be in perpetual gooc humor when on the streets, but who are cross and surly when at home, ar exchange says: ‘‘There are lots of wives in the world who never know that their husbands are ‘jovial and whole-souled’ except when they see it in the papers.” Governor Chase, who, it was reported, intended to pardon Dr. Viets, the Plymouth rapist now serving four years in the Northern prison, declares that he has had no intention of releasing the man. The governor, it will be remembered, married Dr. Viets and wife, and for that reason it was thought that the governor might pardon Viets. Ex-Gov. Isaac P. Gray says that he is not a candidate for governor. With Gray out of the race, Secretary of I ^^l^^laude Mathews would seem to j x 7 ^^ most prominent '/''’if’ The carper--on the creamery build enee the weather to na.v - . readv for the machinery in a few dad

Elder Robert H. Miller, one of the most prominent ministers in the Dunkard church, died in Illinois, recently, and the remains were taken to North Manchester, this state, for burial. He was professor of theology at the Mount Morris college, 111., at tht^^ \of his death, and was also of considerable note^jM^R^ published a number of .Religious subjects. He was alf^f ..own as the leading debater and defender of the Dunkard creed. Judge George Driggs, judge of the Cook county circuit court, died at his home in Chicago last Saturday morning. His death, caused by quinsy, was very sudden and unexpected and a great shock to his numerous friends in the city. Judge Driggs was a bright lawyer, a pleasing orator and by his fairness and ability had won golden opinions from his legal brethren as a jurist. He was but 46 years old, and leaves an interesting family of a wife and two children. The Postoffice Building bill has passed the Senate. The bill provides for the construction of government buildings in towns and cities, the postoflices in which have reported receipts exceeding $9,000 for the three preceding years. The cost of such building and site is not to exceed $20,000 at any place where the gross postal recepts for each of the three preceding years shall not have exceeded $8,000; and at no other place shall it exceed a sum equal to the aggregate of the postal receipts therein during the three years preceding; nor shall it exceed $75,000 in all. Should the bill finally become a law the following towns in Indiana will become beneficiaries of the act: Angola, Attica, Auburn, Aurora, Bedford, Bloomington, Bluffton, Brazil, Columbia City, Danville, Decatur, Delphi, Franklin, Greensburg, Hammond, Jeffersonville, Kendallville, Lagrange, Lawrenceburg. Lebanon. Ligonier, Mishawaka, Mount Vernon, New Castle, Noblesville, North Manchester, Notre Dame. Plymouth, Portland, Princeton, Rochester, Rushville, Seymour, Sullivan, Tipton, Union City, Warsaw, Washington and AVinches ter.

The bottom has fallen out of the investigation into the Chicago boodle ease, and the boodlers, if boodlers they be, go scot free. It is necessary for the successful presidential candidate to receive 223 votes, there being 444 electors in the coming electoral college. President Harrison, last Tuesday, appointed Hon. John 11. Baker, of Goshen, so succeed Judge Woods as jugeoftheU. S. district court of Indiana and Ilie lion. Stanton J. Peele, of Indianapolis, as judge of the court of claims. Three I Surveyors in Walkerton.

Tuesday evening a party of twelve surveyors with W. K. Woodruff, of Kankakee, 111., locating engineer, in charge, reached Walkerton, having completed a survey from Knox to this place of the pr 'posed Three I extension. The party began the survey from Knox on Friday of last week pursuing a direct northeasterly course to this place missing Hamlet about 1.4 mile on the east. The survey is being continued on a straight line from here to South Bend passing through North Liberty. They expect to complete the survey to the former place by next Monday evening. A. A. Garner, a member of the party, informs the Independent that as soon as this route is surveyed they will survey another line from Knox to Goshen via Plymouth. hat the object is in mapping out two routes has not been made known.

Here is a big story coming from Ohio. Last week there died at Wharton, one of the most remarkable creatures—an infant who was aged 29 years. The ! child, or young man, whatever it could I be called, was the son of Austin Boden, ; I and during all the years of its lite was j i nothing more than a mere babe. It I developed in no respect, and died in its cradle. It could not talk or walk nor j recognize any one, and was as helpless i when it reached its manhood as the day ! 'it was born. Doctors were completely baffled, and could do nothing, and I for twenty-nine years its death has , been expected. In speaking of the college gymnasium exhibition at Danville, Ky., recently, the Democrat of that place I makes the following mention of a forI mer AValkerton bov, Al M. Hendee, ! who is attending theological school; 1 there. The item will only be appreci- : ■ ated by those who remember that Al is I ’ so unfortunate as to have but one leg. The Democrat says: i “Prof. Berry satisfied every’ one present that he was a very competent ' instructor, in fact, the right man iu the right place. He has advanced his : scholars very rapidly and thoroughly. . But we don’t propose to make any in- , vidious distinction when we say that ' our friend Hendee was the attraction lof the evening from the fact that he | made such a creditable showing with i such a slim foundation to work on.” I Commissioner's Sale.

FAIL TO DO OUR DUTY. Everybody has at times failed to do their duty towards themselves. Hundreds of lady readers suffer from sick headache, nervousness, sleeplessness and female troubles. Let them follow i the example of H.

But on< ottle of Dr. Miles’ Nervine caused sound sleep every night and she is feeling like a new person.
