IMPROVEMENTS.

Decided Changes Being Made in the Walnut St. Presbyterian Church. The Walnut Street Presbyterian church is undergoing some decided changes. The choir formerly occupied the space to the north of the . -ST 1 . pulpit, unaer tne new arrange ment tne etioir wm occupy space at the rear of the pulpit, and the spaces to the north and south qf the pulpit will be occupied by seats for members of the congrega tion or visitors. The pulpit has been moved forward and between it and the space occupied by the choir is a neat railing. The carpet on the Upper lloor has been placed on the floors of the Sunday School rooms, and a new carpet will be purchased for the room above. Paper hangers are engaged in putting on new paper, and when Rev. Allison returns from his summer vacation at Char levoix, Mich , he will hardly recognize the interior of the building. The premiums offered in the Farm and Fruit Departments at the Big Bloomington Fair have been greatly increased both in size and number this year. The De partment is under the management of John S. Johnson, one of the most progressive farmers of the county, and with the great fruit crop this year, this department should be made the banner department of the fair. Large premiums are given of the best twenty varieties and ten varieties and five varieties and one variety of apples, also on separate plates and on pears, peaches, plums and grapes of all descriptions and quinces, so that every person who raises nice fruit, whether it be only five apples of one kind can bring hem and enter them in this De partment without paying any entry ee. A large building has been prepared for this department and every arrangement made for making a fine display. Fix up your ruit and bring it to the fair. It costs you nothing and may make you a premium from 50c to $10. Co. H, Indiana Militia of this city will take up the line of march or Jefferson ville, Sept. 9th. The Doys will start in the morning, having a special car attached to the Louisville flyer for their especial benefit. They will act as escort to the naval veterans who will attend the G. A.
