James F. Rawlings, of Eureka Springs, Ark., formerly a resident of Monroe county, and an ex-member of Co. 14th Res't.; Ind. Vol., is on a visit to his brothers, Joseph and Daniel Rawling of Washington township, and other relatives in the county. By Your Over c oat s at The Corner . William Bowen, living live miles west of Harrodsburg,was dangerously injured one day iast week by being thrown from a wagon by a runaway team. The horses became frightened and ran off, striking a tree with such force as to kill one of the animals. Bo wen is about 5 years old. The alarm of tire Saturday afternoon was cause by the burning of a stable on the property but recently purchased by C. R. Perdue, formerly owned by Mrs.Drysdstle. The department soon responded, bat as the fire was several yards from the house, all dauuer was over. Alex. Fowler had the stable rented and lost $15 woitb of feed. The loss on the stable was about $25. The cause of the fire is not known.

Satnrday night shortly after 10 o'clock as Mrs. Maud Showers was going home from the Horticultural fair, to boys passed her by the old Christian church, and in doing so one of them grabbed for her purse which was fastened to her dress, and succeeded in getting it, including the contents of $23. The boys then made their escape as soon as possible. This is the second attempt of this kind that has been made, as & similar effort was made with two young lad i eft on east 3rd street less than a month ago. Alrs.Sho wers thinks she can reeoginze the thief.

He r cultural Fair. The Horticultural fair Thursday, Friday and Saturdav was a i;reat

! success. The display would have

done credit to any city or county in Indiana. Persons from abroad readily acknowledged that theynever saw a more complete display of fruits This was especially true of apples, the variety being very large and the fruit would readily compare with that raised anywhere. Th, evidenced by the fact that Ak-nroe county for the past three years has taken the first premium ou horticulture at the State fair. The number of curiosities exhibited was also large and many of them were quite interesting. The ilower display was beautiful. C. K. Worrall had the largest collection ever before exhibied in Bloomington. Mrs. Boison aud Thomas Spicer also had exhibit that were praised on all sides. The display of bird eggs by Harry Feltus was one of the best exhibits. Payment ot premiums wtli Le made at C. II. WorraiPs oflice, upon application. Joseph Dinsmore's sweet potatoes, very large, and one of them two feet long, enkindled desires to eat them. Miss Mary Campbell got first premium on sait rising wheat bread, while MiS. A. W. Rogers succeeded with her corn pone bread. Signal successes in making pumpkin pies were achieved by Mrs. I- M. Rogers, Mrs. Wilson Adams and Mrs. Frank McPhetndsre. There was a line display of jellies, preserves and other table luxuries, all too numerous for even a brief mention in the columns of the Telephone. A. Perriug exhibited some very rare apple cider, three years old, and three gallons boiled into one, a taste of which made a man feel like joining the church.

The attendance Friday and Saturday was good, and on Friday an J Saturday nights the large hall was insufficient to hold half of the crowd desiring admittance. The floral, fern And foliage display was very fine, 'the entries of Mrs. C. R. Worrall, Mrs. Boison, Thomas Spicer and Fred Bess, be ing specially noticeable. The big cabbages and the big pumpkins of A. Ketcham caused the curious lover of such vegetables to linger awhile over these displays so suggestive of big Thanksgiving dinners. Miss Mary B.Campbeil succeeded in getting the Tklej'hon'E for one year, on the best loaf of salt rising bread. Miss Campbell's family got the same premium a year ago on a begonia rex. To Hon, C. It. Worrall, Wm. II. Neeld, I AL Rogers, Wm. Hunger, Jos. Dinsmore, Calvin Snodgrass, A. Ketcham and Alfred Perriug must be accorded great credit for the results attained. John Wier and Wm. Farmer had displays of sweet potatoes of last year's growth, without speck or flaw, and in perfect state of preservation, owing to the equable temperature in which they were kept. The copies of the Telephone "from its youth up" attracted their share of attention. When the paper was established in 1877 it was the size of a sheet of note paper, and was published in that form for over a year. Summers, the artist, attracted attention on the north side of the hall with a splendid display of crayon work, photographs, frames, etc. Among his pictures is a lovely scene, with the home of Hon. C R. Worrall in the foreground. The friends of the horticultu ral
