There is a red-hot ice war in progress at Terre Haute and the frozen water is selling at fourteen cents per hundred, with the prospects of still going earthward. The decision of the supreme court that a city which sutlers an obstruction to remain in the streets or on the sidewalks an unreasonable length of time so that the city might be presumed to have notice of obstruction, will be liable therefor to the same extent as it the city had itself placed the obstruction there, is one that will be of special interest to the people of Bloomington. The court holds that streets can be used to deposit materials only in cases of absolute necessity, and further it says that it will be considered prima facia negligence for a city to permit material to be piled up in the streets. In an interview at Chicago, Gen. John S. Clarkson said that while "Geni Harrison is not an active candidate for the presidency he is a , 'receptive' candidate." "Receptive" is good. About everybody in this country is a 'receptive' candidate for something better. The fellow with a salary of four dollars a week is a "receptive" candidate for a six-dollar-a-week job, and the fellow who draws ten thousand a year is a "receptive" candidate for a twelve thousand dollar soft snap. The single man is a "receptive'' candidate for matrimony and "often, oh, how often, ' is the married man a "receptive" candidate for a- divorce. In fact we are a nation of "receptives" and for Gen. Clarkson to say that any man is a "receptive" candidate means that he in only a natural applicant for that position. The reunion of the Blue and Gray on the battle field at Shiloh last week, was even more pleasant than its most enthusiastic promoters hoped for. The men who were arrayed against each other in deadly conflict in 1862 met on the same field in 1895, and where shot and shell once brought death and despair, there was naught but peace and good fellowship. The men who fought against each other in "times that tried men's souls" fought their battles from 1861 to 1865, and now are companions under a single flag the stars and stripes. The men who sighted along the gun barrels in that terrible conflict are not the ones that are fighting in 1895. The heroes in battle are heroes in peace, and such reunions as the one witnessed i at Shiloh is an object lesson that ! will not fail to furnish a most val-! uable lesson. - i Those who were subscribers to !

ALMOST A FATAL BLOW. Biz Saders Throws A Rock At An Actor Who Was Acting The Character Of A Convict. The Sargent's Celebrities band were preparing for their daily parade, yesterday afternoon just in front of the opera house, at 3 o'clock. When everything was ready M. j. Moss, one of the actors, who was dressed in a convict's costume, started down Kirkwood avenue as though he was trying to escape. Me was closely followed by another actor, dressed as a Dutchman, yelling, 'stop thief!" Catch him! Stop the convict!" in chorus with a whole regiment of little boys who eagerly kept pace with the showman. All went well until the imitation jail bird ran around the southeast corner of the square. There he met his Waterloo. "Biz" Saders, the horse trader, was sitting there talking to some expressmen. When he saw the man with a striped suit rounding the corner at such a furious rate of speed he fell off his perch, so great was his excitement. As he rose from the ground he threw a big stone, weighing about ten pounds, at the fugitive convict?, striking him on top of the head and inflicting a very painful, though not serious, wound. This stopped the race. The wounded man was at once conducted to a physician's office, where he received medical attention. Several stitches were necessary to properly close the wound . Mr. Moss stated that this was the first time he had ever appeared on the street in penitentiary costume and that it would be his last. He said that he didn't see Sader's belkrerent movement until it was too late to stop and that when he did see him raise the stone ho thought it was a bluff. However, he was soon convinced of his error. When asked why he hit the man "Biz" Saders said that several years ago while near the 1 penitentiary at Jeffersonviile, a convict ran past him and escaped. He could have knocked the man over with a stone but et hm t , iU , , i u y u & j vt cii ii iicov.u ci J u well u , ., , ot $50.00. He promised himsell there and then that if another escaping prisoner tried to pass him that he would do his best to get the $50.00. When he look- - H ,-, vpatorrbtxr .ifWnnr.n :t,A saw Moss he said he saw visions of reward, if he could only stop the man. He stopped him. He saw his mistake. His visions of dollars became Moss' visions of variegated stars.
