JUDGE (IRES II AM IX TO WX Hon. Walter Q. Gi'eslmm, Secretary of State of the United States, passed through the city on No. 5 yesterday afternoon en route lo the home of his mother near Corydon, Harrison county, from Chicago. Mr. Gresham is making his annual visit to his mother. She is now SO years old, and is in feeble health. One of the admirable traits of her distinguished son has been his tilial love and 'devotion. No matter whnt important duties appertaining to any of his exalted

positions may be pressing upon

him, he has every summer pushed aside official work long enough to run down to Harrison county and have many long and confidential chats with liis mother. On yesterday, tired out from his recent long pilgrimages, and from the onerous obligations imposed by society at Chicago, he yet forgot his fatigued condition on arrival at Blqomington, and got off of the train and began running around in search oF some former acquaintance here in order that he might revive the more speedily anil accurately recollectiont of his college day, in Bloom in gton. This period in. the life of Mr. Gresham embraced the years jf '51 and '55. Fortunately, he ran across Major Mulky on the platform when he m said, vt Why. Major Mulky, I am delighted to meet you. I must resume my journey on this train, but while the train is stopping here I want to took about l httle, and see if I can Hud some of the old landmarks familiar to me Ifun my college days. Let's go rouid on the other side of the depot and take a look at the site of the old Orchard House, for you remember, Major, 1 used to board there. Of course the old building is burned down, but I should like to see the ground on which it stood.' Arm in arm they went to the east side ox the station and took a hurried survey of the desolated premises. And then Gen. Gresham quickly said, "Now, let's run

around to the other side of the station, for my recollection is the Goodwin boarding house was on that side, and that was my home for a time, and I should like to see that building, if not torn down, or removed." To this the Major replied, "We call that the Souders property, now, General." 4 "But where is that little branch it seems to me I have a decided recollection of the little branch between the railroad and the Elijah Goodwin house." The explanation was made as to the branch being hidden by the covered street. Other inquiries were hurriedly made, and then the distinguished traveler got aboard his train and took his departure, greatly pleased and interested, and ijeemingly refreshed by this hurried visit to Bloomington. Major Mulky and General Gresham have long been intimate friends, both gentlemen having lived in their boyhood days in the neighborhood of Corydon. They have frequently met, and of course are - always glad to see each other. The Major's father and the father of Greshaoi were alo ultimate friends. Major Mulky's father the late James Mulky, of Harrison county, was one of the three men who arrested the pioneer desperado Sipes, who murdered the father of General Gresham while attempting as sheriff of Harrison county to arrest him. Singularly enough,Gen. Gresham, and his immediate predecessor, Hon. John W. Foster, the

It is the board upon which he tirst agreed, and the surprise will be that he has not reappointed Dr. J. E. Harris, the only Democrat now on the board and who was very popular. The other members of the old board are Drs. Weir and Whittcd. who of course were "offensive partisans." The positions are worth about $300 per year with one days work each year. Drs.
