A Magnificent OalpouriBg of People at UnioMills. Yesterday was a gala day at the little village of Unionville. Benton township has a pleasant custom of each year welcoming to her hospitable borders all the surviving veterans and their friends. It is a most commendable innovation, ami reflects much credit upon the openheartedness of her congenial citizens.. The veterans were there from far and near, seven states in all being represented, and over 150 of the nation's defenders were there to enjoy the re-union. The Needmore band was the only musical organization present, but the assemblage did, not need more melody, for the members of this far-famed band discoursed patriotic tunes throughout the entire day. ' The addresses were inspiring and were listened to with rapt attention by the soldiers and their friends: Among the principal speakers were Senator H. C. Duncan, Senator R. A. Fulk, Judge A. M. Cunning, Hon. John R. East and Hon. Thomas Langley. The crowd was an unusually orderly and decorous one, and nothing occurred to mar the pleasures of the day. -Much credit is due Wm. I. Adams and Wm. Griffin for the perfect success of the meeting. The long table groaned under the weight of viands that would have tickled the palate of a king. The hard-tack and bacon and beans were there as forcible reminders of army fare. And they disappeared before the onslaught of the soldiers with surprising rapidity. All in all it was a patriotic day long to be cherished and fondly remembered by both guests and hosts. MUSIC AND JOLLITY. LADIES' NIGHT AT OOLITE CLUB WAS A PLEASING SUCCESS. In the mid-summer social life of Bloomington the Oolite Club shares its glories all alone. The luxurous apartments were resplendent last night with the beauty and gallantry of the city, who made merry the fleeting hours, lightly tripping to! the melody of Breitenbach's orchestra. About twenty five couples were present, and it was mid-night before the happy guests departed from the hospitable hall. Missionary Tea. The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the College Avenue Ai E. church gave a most delightml tea last evening in the parlors t f the church. The entertainment committee, Mesdames W. I. Hicks, L V. Buskirk, Nat. U. Hill, Will Auiiius, John Stem, Eph Hughes, G W. Campbell and Sherman Bott3, furnished -a most bountiful SJtpp r and served the one hundred and twenty five present in a very successful manner. The undertaking of preparing for so large a number is no small task. The entertainment committee that successfully accomplishes such a work certainly deserves great credit. The supper collection was the largest ever received at a meeting. The ladi brought in the quilt blocks for which they have been getting name. There has been over five hundred names placed on the quilt. The collection from this f urce will amount to considerable ovr fifty dollars. By a vote of the hocifety the quilt blocks were given to Mrs. J. E. Steele. In receiving ih blocks Mrs. Steele said she would prize most highly this p' uvenir of autographs. Such a highly successful meeting as the one of last evening proves the healthful condition of the society. The last meeting of this conference year will be held three weeks hence at the parscnageand will cloee the nr oft successful yar in the history of the society. Government Crop Bullentin. Central Station, Indianapolis, Ind. The weather for the past week has been warm and dry. averaging about 5 degrees daily above the normal temperature, and. about .10 of .in inch daily deficiency in pre

badly distributed showers; several good general rains are badly needed for all arrowing crops. Com. gener

ally, has not been seriously affected as yet on good lands, but on sandy or high clay lands corn is very poor and many report it as damaged considerably by the dry, hot weather, it is needing rain to assure a well-filled ear. Reports on tobacco are very meager, and are good or bad, depending bn the condition of the soil; most of it is being raised for home consumption. Pastures are generally reported as seriously damaged by the hot and dry weather. Water is scarce all over the State and many wells have gone dry, or are nearly so; it is being hauled in many localities to provide lor stoCK; ine nvcio quite low. Stock begining to look bad. Potatoes, cabbage and tomatoes are doing as well as expected on account of the scarcity of rain. Fruit is abundant and doing very well, except apples, which are "falling off' badly in some counties. Fall plowing is being pushed, but the ground is not in a very good condition; quite an amount of rye is being sown. MAY NOT BE READY. The Imdiana Monuments on Chlcknouar are 811ghtly Delayed. Indianapolis News: TheChicka rnauga Monument Commission met this afternoon in the office of J. R. Carnahan 'to consider some details of the work of erecting monuments on ths battlefield park. The work of getting the monuments in place is not going forward so rapidly as the commissioners would like to see it, and there is some douot about having all the monuments in plaee by September 18, the day on which the park is to be dedicated. The designs have ali been approved by the War Department. The inscriptions have not all been approved, but the commission expects favorable information from the department soon. The site of only one monument has had to be changed. The spot originally chosen for this had heen chosen by a Pennsylvania regiment, nd as the Indiana regiment occupied sev eral prominent positions in the battle it has oeen easy to select .another site. The foundations of the monuments are being put in. AH the members of the commision expect to attend the dedication of the park. Same Here, There is a stringent law on the statute books against giving or sell ing cigarettes to boys and yet there are dozens of boys all over the city smoking them every day in the week. It is very apparent that somebody is violating the law right along. Elwood Press, Notice to Non-Residents. The State of Indiana. ) Monroe County. In the Monroe Circuit Court, October Term, 1895.

At present it is almost impossible to rent a house in this city. Never in its history have the demand for houses been so great. Each mail brings numerous apiilicdofi from people at a distance who desire to move to this city ere college convenes. Real estate agents are simply at loss as to the best ' method in handling t he number of new residents, or applicants who desire to secure suitable houses. True, there are a few cottages, but they are hot the most desirable locations. There is a geoeral demand for large and commodious residences. It is estimated that there will be at least two hundred more students enrolled' this, year than la it. This certainly speaks well for the University and the town. There U not, city in the state of its size where rent is higher or as high, business rooms commanding a much as $700 per year. FIRE WORKS. Louisville Preparing to Outdo History During the En- k campment. The Louisville Times says: The program for the mammoth display of fireworks which will take place on the river during the encampment has just been announced. The display will be in charge of the' Pain Company, and will be on a scale never before attempted. It will probably occur on the evening of Sept. 12, and will be in midriver. The wharves will be cleared so as to make more room for spectators, and seats will be erected, which will be sold at a reasonable price. The program will open with a national salute of forty-four aerial cannon, the firing to begin a half hour before the beginning of the display proper. This will be started with a salute of twenty-eight maroons, one for each encampment, and from this time until the end the river will be a mass of flames. The display will inclnde all the latest inventions in the pyrotechnic art, and several of the most elaborate displays ever at tempted will be seen here for the first time. Among the more notable features of the program will be a device, the letters "G. A R.," floating 1,000 feet in the air; "The Floating Starspangled Banner," which will be fifty feet wide, 250 feet long and one mile above the earth; a device consisting of the portraits of three noted generals; the coat-of-arnis of Kentucky and the motto of Louisville, a locomotive, with the word "Progress."

Report That Muncie's Mayor Is Married to a Chicago Lady. A report comes in a round-about way that Mayor Cromer was married to Miss Frankie Soule in Chicago Sunday evening.

During an attack of la grippe, from which I suffered greatly with stomach trouble, loss of appetite and general bad feelings, I was induced by a friend, who said it would remove all these troubles, to try your remedy.

would. I believe them to be a long kit want n the Medicine line. Yours very truly, T. W. CAsxxrr. Conductor Vandalia Line. - GENT. Miss Belle H Lamkins is at Martinsville this week.
