Two men at Louis ville were struck by lightning, one being iustantly killed, the other terribly in jured. Two or three hours later three boys were hung at Canton for murder.

In the evening a man was fatally stab- by a negro ruffian, and later still a young man was shot by a woman who, without waiting to ascertaen the result of her bad marksmanship, turned to the weapon and deliberately fired a ball into her own brain, causiug almost instant death. A serious quarrel occurred last Sun day afternoon in which little Arthur Travis, a boy about twelve years old, was stabbed in the back with a pen knife, by Lewis Clark, aged about seven teen years, son of J. W. Clark. It ap pears that quite a number of boys had been bathing in the river and with them these two.

When they came out a quarrel arose between them, but they were kept apait until they reached the railroad, when Clark called Travis Borne hard names; Travis then struck Clark over the head with his cane, and Clark struck him in the back with a knife. The wound is very severe, and it is hardly known if it will prove fatal or not. Clark is under arrest. Hia trial came up Monday afternoon, when it was continued till ten o'clock this morning. We understand that John Willett and family will move from their present placo ol residence as soon as they possibly can, They say they cannot livo in that houne siuco the homicide.

The bloodstains, we are told, areas plainly visible on the floor now, as they were the day of the inquest. If such is the case, we do not wonder at the family for wanting to leave. Their loss will bo sadly felt in that neighborhood, as they were held in high estimation by many of the best citizens. When anybody dies, gets married, runs away, steals anything, builds a house, makes a big sale, whips his man or his wife breaks his leg, or gets the senses kicked out of him by a mulo, or does anything that is any way remarkable, and you have reason to believe you know as much about it as anybody else, don't wait for some other person to re port it, or trust us to find it out by in stinct, but come and tell us about it or send us tho facts on a postal card. This is the way news is supplied, and it takes a good supply of that necessary article to make a good paper.

See if you can not let us know every item of nows that transpires in your neighborhood. I wish to return my thanks to our citizens who encouraged aud aided me in getting up the delegation to attend the Old Soldiers' Re-union at Humboldt, We obtained the flag by a large majority and we are justly proud.

Tho Old Soldiers' Re union at Hum boldt was largely attended, and would have been ono of tho grandest affairs ver held in Allen county, if it had not been for tho rain which threatened from early dawn and at noon began to descend in torrents.

Thedelegation was over a mile long consisting of wagons and buggies, followed by tho Plug Uglies, who brought up the rear aud who, by their fantastic uniforms and grotesque actions, afforded amusement for all. After marching through the city, the delegation proceeded to the grounds and disbanded.
