Aull, of this city, who represented Tin: Imuj-kn-iu:nt at every session. Yesterday morning the body of an ex-regular army soldier by the name of Chas. Scannt-11, was found near JelTersonville, lud. He had been discharged from the service Feb. Uli, and secured quite a sum of money. It is supposed he was murdered for the purpose of rob bery. At Ft. Wayne, the reporter to the Kansas City Sun, has been using the names of two or three respectable people indescriminately in his letters to the notorious sheet.

The free silver democrats, of the state
committee at the meeting hold yesterday at Indianapolis, gained their point in regard to the holding of the state convention before the National convention.

For the past tow days tue smell of burning wood at the residence of Oliver (I. Soice has been very preceptable. Mr. Soiee has spent some time in wandering around trying to locate the trouble. This morning about H o'clock Fire Chief Kuhn was notified to go immediately to the residence, and arrived in time to prevent a serious lire. Mr. Soice has been using a tire place, and it seems the woodwork underneath the tile had caught fire. Ow ing to the absence of a draft it had smoldered there for some time. It is exceedingly fortunate the discovery was made in time.

A Word or Two on Shoes. It is usually advisable to fight shy of cheap shoes. In your shoe buying, buy right, if possible, and remember that quality is the supreme essential to always be on the lookout for. Not all of the shoes we sell give perfect satisfaction, but the bad ones form a very small percentage of the quantity we sell, and even the bad ones are made good if it is the fault of the shoes. Our new Spring Styles are samples of the highest art in Shoemaking, and you are welcome to our time to look at them, whether von want to buy or not.
