As a matter of economy it is more essential that you should buy good shoes for your children than for yourselves. Cheap shoes may, with proper care, answer as a substitute with older persons, but it is money thrown away to buy them for children. The best you can get will not last them any too long. At Christie's Shoe Store, on the north side of Washington street, you will find the best custom made shoes that this country affords. Take your children with you when it is possible; you will always get a better fit and save trouble. For the best wearing and neatest fitting goods, go to Christie’s Shoe Store by all means. On the north side of Washington street, just east of the National Bank.

A frightful accident occurred last Sunday morning near Putnamville, which may remit in the death of the injured party, and should be a terrible warning to boys to keep away frwm the cars. Sherman Nelson, the 15 year old son of Wn». Nelson, a stone mason living about a mile south of the city boarded the south-bound freight train on the L., N. A. & C. railroad, near his home, intending to meet the north-bound train and return, When the train passed thiough Putnamville young Nelson was standing on top of a box car, and not noticing a bridge which they were fast approaching, he was struck upon the head by a beam and thrown from the bridge. Ho was picked up insen^iblo and it was at first thought dead. He was taken to Cioverdale where medical nid could be obtained, and an examination of his injuries be made, which were found to be Unite severe but not fatal. He was removed from Cioverdale, Monday, to his home near this city. A good second-hand, two sealed spring wagon for sale cheap. Apply to C. Kiefer. 2tl0

Major Jonathan Birch, Hon. C. C. Matson and Granville C. Moore, have been chosen instructors in this new department. This is a step in the right direction. Heretofore every advantage has been given those desiring to engage in the ministry, and it is nothing more than right and just that those desiring to become “limbs of the law” should be offered equal facilities for so doing. Maj Birch conducted a law class, consisting of Juniors, last year, with g/eat success. !VIcm«rlnl Service. The funeral sermon of the wife of Jno.

Monday afternoon near Walnut Creek just west of the city, having in his possession a horse and buggy supposed to have been stolen and answering to the description of a rig which was stolen a few days ago near Mooresville, Ind., When found, Dicks was engaged in painting the buggy and had already daubed the horse in order to avoid recognition. He was brought to the city by Marshall Starr and given quarters in the county jail where he will await further developments. roup’s cirrus. The people began to crowd our streets last Tuesday morning by eight o'clock. Threshing machines were stopped and all thoughts^ of garnering the golden grain dissmissed from the minds of the thrifty farmers surrounding us. and all attention turned to the advent of W. C. Coup’s monster circus and menagerie. Of this stupendous aggregation too much can not be said in praise. Every department is a complete show within itself from the gorgeons street parade to the Inst act in the arena. The immense pava’lions spread far and wide resembling a young city which had sprung up in 4 night. As to the ring performance nothing can be said that will give an intelligent idea of its mngnifioancc and granduer. Miss Katie Stokes may well be called “the queen of the saw dust arena” and George Mellvillo, the best bare back rider known to the profession. So on throughout the whole performance words of praise might bo fittingly bestowed. One thing is sure, the people of Greencistle unite in prone unoiug it the best circus exhibited in this city for many a day and should Mr. Coup ev- ! ei return to tins city we bespeak for him \ a crowd that will fill his m in;moth | avillic.i to the utmost.

We can assure the people who congregate there that they will hear three good addresses at least during the time. ft^*An employee of Coup's Circus had his leg broken Tuesday while arranging for tho street parade. He was driving a team down the steep descent just east of the L. N. A. & C. railroad near the spoke factory when one of the horses stumbled, pulling him from the top of the cage and throwing him under the wheel which did the mischief. ®ayWe are under obligations to Mr. Dempsey Seybold, Secretary cf the Bndgton Union Agricultural Socity, for complimenterv tickets to the twentieth annual Fair to be held from August 22nd to 27.

8®“We were honored with a friendly call by one of Putnam county’s old residents, Mr. G. W. Lumpkin, now of Boone county, last Saturday afternoon. Mr. Lumpkin was born and raised in Clinton township, where he maintained his residence until 1865, when he moved to the county mentioned above, where he has been engaged in farming ever since. He has made only one vi-it since his removal, to the home of his youth, until now, and of course is surprised at the great changes that have taken place in his absence. Had he the time at his disposal in which to collect his thoughts and renew his memory, he could, and would, have given us many events and incidents which happened in tho early days when Indiana was an infant and the terror striking howl of ravenous wolves was heard throughut the dense forests. Mr. L., with his estimable wife, is here now on a visit to their many friends. Having made the journey in a buggy, he had a splendid oportunity to notice the growth and condition of the crop®. We give the result of his observations in Boone, Hendricks and Putnam counties: Tho corn in Boone will yield an average crop; corn in black soil looks well. The wheat in that county will average, probably, fourteen bushels to the acre. Tho northern part of Hendrick'S is not suffering for want of rain as other localities are, and corn is good, with the exception of being troubled by the grub worm. There are a few fields, however, here and there, that will not yield anything, on account of this pest. He reports that corn in north Putnam does not look near so wall as the sections through which he passed in other counties. There are many fields of wheat which the owners did not deem wo'th cutting, and they are consequently left standing. Mr. Lumpkin returned home Wednesday, well pleased with his brief sojourn among his old friends.
