What explnnatian can be found for the exceedingly hot weather? Is the comet furnishing the extra heat? What a blessing a plentiful and convenient supply of water would be during the heated term—water works would furnish it, and the expense to the people would be less than present cost. And now the newspapers are poking fun at the sweet girl graduates, ptoposing to give them the degree of Spinsters of Arts in lieu of Bacnelors of Arts— just think of it; dubbing a good looking gfrl Spinster, and expect her to appreciato it as a hard earned compliment. They have in Nebraska a statute on the hooks, denominated the “temperance law,” which the same is proving a bonanza to those who have money. The dealer is required to pay a $ 1,0UJ license give a $5, (J(«i bond, and have thirty names to his petition for a license. The result is that the small try goes to the wall, and the men with money can continue the liquor traffic. There seems to be a shooting mania in the air of Washington City now . The lunatic who fancied he had a mission to assassinate Mr. Blaine has been succeeded by a lunatic who f ancied he had a mission to assassinate Mr. Arther, and by a iunat.c who 'ancied be had a mission to cure the President with salve, followed by still another who advocates feeding Congressmen on dogbuttons.
This hot weather should be a splendid argument in favor of waterworks—the money now being paid for hauling wa ter would pay the water rents of the city
for a year.
An equitable law, worthy of imitation in other States, is that of Massachusetts, whereby the taxes on mortgaged property is done away with; that is, a deduction is permitted to be made to the
amount of the mortgage.

north of Logansport, when one of the nutnt>cr, William Armstrong, was accidentally thrown off and in front of the car. The wheels instantly passed over his body, and upon being picked up it was found that bis leg was broken, his temple gashed and bis back terribly injured. A furrow three inches wide and four deep had been plowed through liis llcsb. His injuries were fatal. Mrs. Andrew Frushout, of Urbana, in company with her cousin, Mrs. Cara Frushout, started out for a drive on the oth. W hen half a mile from town the horse took fright and threw them both out, inflicting probably fatal injuries on the former and serious
ones on the latter.

The total wheat crop of the State of Indiana in 188U was 47,130,681 bushels, and the acreage 3,109,840. Estimates of the present crop are slowly being received at the State Bureau of Statistics, and a calculation on the basts of those already reported pi aces the total yield slightly in excess of 30,003,000 bushels.

Howard, Jay, Hamilton, Tosey and Nathaniel F. Cunningham, known every-

Montgomery, Randolph, and all counties in the central portion of the State estimate from two-thirds of a crop, as compared ttith last year, loan average of fifteen bushels per acre. The northwestern tier of counties, particularly those on the edge of the Grand Prairie, estimate less than one-half a crop.

These tribes generally occupy mountain fastnesses on the frontiers of Algeria, on the fringe of the desert, where, when pursued, they can find a safe refuge. Since the French first occupied Algeria iu 1830, the Kronmirs have made each spring a foray similar to those of the

Watch that swindlers may not prey upon you. The last reported sign your-name-dodgo that worked successfully, is given as follows: A farttier was called upon one evening recently by a welldressed, gentlemanly lorki ig stranger, who asked the privilege to stay over night, which was granted. In the mor ning he offered to pay his bill, but tho farmer refused the offered compensation. Profuse in his thanks for the kindness bestowed upon him he asked his host for his signature, which request was unsuspectingly complied with, and in a few days tho farmer received a notice that a note was held against him for •jiTtW, the signature of which he oo il l not deny. The Indianapolis Review of Saturday, says: In his Fourth of July speech, at Greencastle, ex Setutor Headricks discussed tho relations of the colonies to the mother country, and the causes of separation, in a broad philosophical way that must have astonished a day so used to “gostration” and rhapsody. He also presented the deficiencies of tho confederacy clearly and concisely and the manner in which the new constitution retnedod them. In short, lie made a really instructive speech—so unusual an occasion that it ought to have been delivered next year, when there will probably be no comet, or political assassination to signalize it.

Special to Chicnifo Tribune. One of the largest gatherings ever known in the place convened at the Independent Bathhouse, in this city, Wednesday night. The object of the meeting was to take measures expressive of the universal fueling which exists for [’resident Garfield. The Hon. Daniel W. Voorhecs, of Indiana, who is sojourning here, was present ard delivered a short address. He said that “the civilized world has been shocked by the dreadful news of the last few days. Alt attempt had been made to kill the chief magistrate of the republic. Wo fondly hope that the attempt has failed and the President may live. His life is very precious at this time, not only to his loving family and personal friends, but the peace and welfare of the country, and it is true that our fathers so framed this goverment that one life is not ahsoluetiy essential to its existance or ultimate destiny but there are times and occasions when the life of the President is more valuable to the public than under different circumstances. While the government would move on without convulsion or disturbance yet the death of General Garfield at the present juncture would be a National calamity of the first magnitude, There is no political significance in the blow of the assassin. Let us earnestly hope that none will ever bo discovered. Far better that the cruel act should spring from the disordered brain of a madman than from revenge or guilty ambition. When warring political factions shall pursue each other with tho bullet and the knife of assassination, then indeed will the days of this republic be numbered. Nor is there anything sectional in this great crime. The men and women of the Mouth are to night praying as sincerely and as universally for the trembling life of the President as their brethren and sisters of the North, and may God grant the prayers of all section!^ and classes, and restore our President UA health and strength." Resolutions conveying to the President the most heartfelt sympathy were adopted.

Resistance to tho new prohibitory laws of Kansas has gone so far that while juries in the cities refuse to convict liquor sellers, even upon tho clearest evi deuce. In Atchison the Common Council, with the co-opcration of its presiding officer, the Mayor, has adopted an ordinance providing for the granting of licenses to taverns and saloons. This action was taken in express ridicule and defiance of the prohibitory constitutional amendment and the laws based upon it. Tho temperance men have since then had a mass meeting, and called upon the Mayor to resign, while Gov. St John threatened to call out the militia ami put the laws into execution by force of arms. All this because the population of the cities is not willing to be deprived of its beer by tho rural population’s tempercnce j rcdilictions. Mrs. Mintzer of Philadelphia obtained a divorce from her husband, and an order compelling him to pay $90 a month for her support. Mintzer quitted the city to avoid paying. The woman's lawyers applied to Judge Mitchell of tho Supremo Court for an order of sequestration, on which all the property of the absentee could be seized in contempt and heldj until he obeyed the order of the Court. It was conceded that such a wiithad never been issued in Pennsylvania, though it was tho practice in England. The motion wa| granted.
