The Milford Mail has enlarged from a six to a seven column quarto, on account of the demands made upon its advertising space by the wide awake and progressive business men of that town. The Wabash agent at Kingsbury, who was robbed recently, has been discharged. The company claims that there are suspicious circumstances which reflect upon him, says the Indianapolis Sun.

Mr. Bilger writes: “ I had a bad attack of | the Grippe; after a time caught cold and had ‘ a second attack; it settled in my kidneys and liver, and Ob I such pain and misery I in my back and legs.

Here is a star boarder who is equal [to all emergencies. An Elkhart landlord stole the clothing of a delinquent boarder while he slept, expecting to negotiate a settlement the next morning, but the delinquent fled. He walked away in a barrel. An exchange says that the Chicago Daily Herald has discontinued the publication of its weekly edition, because it would not pay expenses and earn a reasonable profit at $1 per year, and yet there are people who pretend to believe that the publishers of country newspapers are unreasonable when they ask $1.50 a year for their publications. The country newspaper at $1 50 per year is the cheapest thing on earth. 'Those of our readers who play progressive euchre for prizes may be interested in the following. A judge in his charge to a grand jury recently, called ~ -Ab** —j' j

o ovI ™7a-xall,l^ “progressive euchre” in private gatherings for prizes as a violation of law. He said: “Any one who participates in any of these games and plays for a prize, is just as guilty in the eyes of the law as a regular gambler who plays for money. If the grand jury will indict some of this class of gamblers, the example will be worth as much as the conviction of forty professional sports.” Like that other railroad flower— Daliin's- - the -‘'Three I” road is blooming again. 'They are the first roses of summer.—Albion New Era. We hardly think that the two projects can be compared, with consistency. The proposed extension of the Three 1 northward from Knox, its present terminus, is not the dream of a financial adventurer, but a practicable, sensible business measure which the logic of the situation demands shall be consummated sooner or later. That the Three 1 railroad will be extended at some future time, perhaps soon, is a proposition that few, who are acquainted with the facts, will venture to dispute.
