Jesse Maytield, east 4th street, who hud a severe attack of the flux, is reported better. The jail is fortunate enough to havo only one occupant.

About 20loomington ladies attended the district convention of the W. F. M. S. at Bedford. Several of the number had places on the program. They expect a very successful meeting.

Miss Rice, east 6th street, who has been quite sick for some time, is reported no better. Tlie family of Harvey Phillips, on 'College Hill, is still a victim of sickness. Mrs. Phillip and three daughters are confined to their beds. Miss Dysart is reported serioufc ly sick. The Charley McPheeters store has resumed business again.

It is prolwible that For paw's show may visit Bloomington early in October. The general manager has sent for the cost of all details for giving an exhibition here. The show is to be at Bedford Oct. 4th.

The Bedford Democrat says that the quarries of that place are closing up contracts that will take three of the best quarries seven years to fill. One of the contracts is for stone to build a bridge across the Mississippi at New Orleans, and when the contracts are finally secured, the work will be divided among the different companies. Prof. Amzi Atwater occupied the pulpit of the Christian Church Sunday morning and his sermon ws in the nature of a farewell talk to the congregation. Ha reviewed

his many years of service to the church, ctpoke personally of many of the members, and in closing gave some excellent advice to the congregation. The members, without exception, regret to part with him, and his excellent wife. The New Albany Ledger says that Dr. W. R. Halstead, of this city, will likely be appointed to the presiding eldership of the Evansville district, and that at the coming conference there is a possibijity that there will be a reconstruction of the pmdding$der districts, which will result in dropping the Bloomington district and adding it to the other districts, a Rock port district was dropped ont at the last conference. In that event it is probable that Salem, Orleans, Mitchell and Bedford will be added to the New Albany district, and Marengo be made the .western limits of the district the appointments south and west of these to be

Friday afternoon the relatives and neighbors of William J. and Hunnah Moore met in the grove near their house, 3 miles east of Bloomington, to celebrate their goklcn wedding. All their living children, two sons and two daughters, all their grandchildren, 22 in number, three great-grandchildren and numerous other relatives were present. Rev. M. A. Gault led m the exercises with prayer.

The last four versos of the 92nd psalm furnished an appropriate song. The history of the aged couple was read by Miss Mattic McCaughan. Af tor i his there were declamations and readings by the young people, and speeches of reminiscene by thn old. It wasa scene not soon to be forgotten, as each child rose in his place and '"called them blessed' At the close of the exercises Rev. Gault gave an address and presented the gifts a sil

ver butter dish and knives and forks by 'the children, a beautiful cane by sister Susan McMillan, gold trimmed cracker bowl by Mrs. Dr. Whit-

ted, two volumes of history by Rev. Gauit and wife, $2 in gold by Jus. CRobieon and wife. By this time the children were all anxious foi supper, and baskets of all the dainties that could be devised were emptied of their contents, which were soon tastily disposed on the large horse shoe table. Supper over, the crowd again gave good wishes and congratulations to the hosts and departed. Wm. Moore and Hannah (McCaughan) Moore arc a well preserv

ed couple 72 and 73 years of age respectively. They have spent their half century of married life in the country around Bloomington, and are everywhere known for their probity of character and for their christian charity. It is to be hoped that they may yet see many returns of their wedding day, and that, in the sentiment of the song sung at their 50th anniversary, "in old age

Some Industrial Prob lems. .

There was a very large audience at the College Avenue Methodist church Sunday night to hear Dr. W. R. Halstead. It was the occasion of his tifth sermon to workingmen. He discussed "Some Industrial Problems, M and the address was one f the strongest of the series. He opened by giving a history of socialism in Europe and America, tracing the various principles from their origin down to the present as now demonstrated in America, at the same time showing how impractical many of the ideas were, while few were to end in bettering the condition of the people for whom they were intended. He also touched upon the recent demonstrations of unemployed men who organized 'themselves into

large bodies, or mobs,and were de- iar,ro numbers of these

bring forth fruit.

Judge Duncan, wife and two

children, are spending several days at Chicago. Henry Swindler, of the Kirkwood Avenue cafe, has been making another trip to Spencer. He also went to visit the fair Taylor Voss,who has been spending some time in Jackson county on a fishing expedition, has returned home. He reports a successful trip. Harry Rhorer has returned from Kentucky, where he has been spending the past few months. He intends returning again in a few weeks.

Prof. C. M. Carpenter is at Indianapolis at present, engaged in the sale of books. He will probably teach in the Terre Haute normal this year. Homer Woolcry is home from Chieago, where he has been workins with the rolling chair company. He will not return, but will enter the University as soon as it opens. Misses Iona Armstrong,of Great

Falls, Montana, and Jennie Nor-

vell, of Chambers, Nebraska, who have been visiting the family of Mrs. Pauline Pearson, returned home Friday. Miss Flora Dillon is at Chicago, where she went especially to attend a meeting of the National Dental

Association, and was honored by b?ing placed on the program for some practical work.

government, just ts if it was the duty of government to clothe men and fill their stomachs. It wa.s the province of government to give every man a fair and equal chance so far as possible, but to so farther

than this would be against all practical seme and bo ruinous. Dr. Halstead s closing and central idea as a cure was to make better men and women, aim direct at the heart from which all generous impulses m ist have a beginning, and to that end the gospel wa the only successful agency, and the future ruu&t depend upon christian men and women who were willing to go down into the slums of the large cities and show these thousands of unfortunate people the way of right. Dr. Halstead's discussion of the single tax theory, then of agricul

ture, was of special interest. He said that there is another urc-all for the ill of lite, known as the "Single Tax" theory. The proposition is to tax real estate and that only; allowing all personal property to go free. Tax real estate to its full rental value, and with that pay all the expenses, of the government, and following this is the mil

lennial declaration that peace and plenty will come to all. Squalor will be driven from the cities, and all hungry mouths will be filled. The naked will be clothed, and universal happiness will reign cn the face of the earth. People who have no real estate will no longer be robbed by having their personal effects taxed, and the farmers themselves will laugh and grow fat in the new richness and prosperity coming to them, all because, we suppose, almost the entire burden of the government will have been thrown on them as a ciats. We shall not here enter into a refutation of the theory, which is the most monstrous scheme for industrial reorganization thnt has ever come to prominence among the American people. It is deliberately bad morals. It is a cool propo sition to confiscate the hard earned wealth of agriculturists by legislation. And this brings w to the consideration, in an economic way, of the greatest industry in America, that

of Agriculture. It is an accepted principle now that the products of the soil lay at the foundation of the world's prosperity. The products of the earth constitute the basit of everything. Everything of wearing apparel, everything of manu

factured product, every article of food, with only a step or two backward, reaches the soil. Men must

not forget the meaning of these facts. The city cannot, like the fabled bruin, suck its paw and live through. Agricultural prosperity means general prosperity, and its depressions means a break in all the industries. We stand here facing a most uncomfortable fact; that is the almost

Mr. Thoma- Dalle, editor of the Graphic, Texarknna, Arkansas, has found hat he believer to be the best remedy in existence for the flux. His experience is well worth remembering. He saj: "Last dimmer 1 had a very severe attack of flux. I tried almost every known remedy, none giving relief. Cham

cine in existence." 25 and 50 cent higher life. They think it easier, bottle h for sale by Faris Bros. There are more attractions, more

conveniences. The severities of life are lest. So they come, att with the few, these things are so, but with the increasing many they are not so. In New England there arc thousands of abandoned farms. One fourth of our population it now urban. Thirty yean ago it was one sixth, and a hundred years ago it was one thirtieth. Population has increased 1H times in one hundred years. City population has increased itfO times. It will not be lonof til. one half the population of this country will be in cities and towns. With the facilities that invention has given to production,thcre is perhaps an over proportion of manufactured goods ;n a country whose manufactured products are so largely used at home as ours. The srrowth of a

1 little city, we sa means prosperity. We arc proud of it, for we

say so. .but when we know tnat

lumbers of these new comers

tire from the country regions, and are now out of work, and winter coming on, would it not be better if they were in the country to-day with the products of a summer s labor in grain and vegetables, aud free from rents as is usually the case in the country?

What are we to do indeed unless there is a turn toward the country? Machinery is so multiplying products that there is over production in many things, which, unused, means an excess of artisan labor. On the farm there is nearly always shortage of labor. This rutfh to the cities is a defiance of one of the laws of Qod, and we shall suffer for it. Men say that they cannot make anything in the country. There is some reason for the statement; but when the energy and force of the country has come to town to compete with an already full quata of labor, what is to be the result ? How much money can be made in town with rents, and expensive living,andno work? There .s a reckless rush of our people to i:he cities which means disaster to the whole country.

The soil in this country is being neglected. Its fertility is clipping

down these valleys to be carried

iiway. The soil is the mother of us t il and our last quiet bosom of

iestinsr. These skinned hills repress mt venality.. We are doomed to poverty as a nation, unless we nurse the soil. Did you ever think that there is but one simple form of the labor problem in the country, and taut is, how can as much work as if needed, be done here? No farmer need be out of work any time in tie year. In that condition there is contentment, such as cannot be found with those who must be idle in the very season of the year they need work, or do hot know when their work will stop, if they have work. Because a few men have b2en known to come from the country, and in some humble occupation earning moderate wages at iist, and from that enlarge their work and business, and become very wealthy, so every boy of spirit has

tie temptation to think that he could do the same, but it is like going to California for gold where one succeeds a hundred ail. Those cc-ming from the country find soon that every lucrative position in the ci:y has a hundred applicants, and many of these find themselves at last without money enough to live iu til a crop can be raised on their return to their former business.

The dislike of agriculture is brin; in. an overplus of labor to the cities. The bringing of the agricultural class first to abject poverty, then to serfdom, has been the blunder of all civilization until now. It has been the first struck rock aironir the breakers. It remains to be een if we shall profit by the pa 4.

The success of Mrs. Annie M. Beam, of McKeesportPenn., in the treatment of diarrhoea in her children will undoubtedly be of interest to many mothers. She says: "I spent several weeks in Johnstown, Pa.,atter the great flood, on account of my husband being employed there. We bad several children with us,two of whom took the diarrhoea vey badly. I got some of Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and Di

arrhoea Remedy from Rev. Mr. (hap man. It cured both of them. I

knew of several other cases where r

it was equally successful. I think it cannot be excelled and cheerfully recommend it.'' 2: and 50 cent bottles for sale by Faris Bros. Mr. J. C. Boswell, one of the best known and most respected citizens of Erownwood, Texas, suffered with diarrhoea for a iong time and tried many different remedies without benefit, until Chamberhin's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy wan used; that relieved 'urn at once" For sale by Faris Bros.
