Bloomtie Id JVeics: "Tobe Hert's headquarters have been at North Platte, Neb., for several weeks past. He had his first experience with a cvclone the other dav while in his room in ti e Pacific Hotel. Nearly every window in the building was knocked out in a jiffy; but what attracted Tobe's attention the most at the time was a heavy timber from the roof of the opera house which suddenly made its appearance, having knocked a hole through the wall near where he was sitting. It was a close call for hi? jovial government official. He has moved his headquarters to Beatrice."

Hindostin, Washington township, is all torn up over the domestic difficulties separating the family of John T. Robinson. All kinds of remarks are rife, and the conclusion is forced vpon the public mind that in this instance marriage is indeed a failure. 'Squire Robinson left his wife and took up his residence with Samuel J. Houston early last week. To Mr. Houston he also, sold his business outfit, and he is now ready to leave for Oklahoma or some other western country. He believes it impossible longer to live with his wife with whom he has had, he says, much trouble within the last five years. Four dijiererit streets will be improved by the' city council the present year Rogers street connects the west bouth pike with the city and will be graded and macadamized north to 2nd street.

permanent i nstitutions during the st few years, none have made

ore substantial progress than the

ve factory of J3hn C. Dolan &

Co. It is now on 3 of the leading

industries of its c harader in Indiana, and a such is a great advantage to a city the size of Bloomington. There are now on the pay-roll of the compauy about forty hands, in addition to which a large amount is paid out for timber that comes from

various prts of the county. Mr. Dolan has recently added a dry kiln to the establishment that is of special value, the engiie furnishing the heat and transferring it through piping to the dry louse at the opposite end of the building. Staves of every size and t tyle are cut from the rough timber ind shipped to all parts of tbe Uiited States.
