One of the happiest of occasions was the birthday tuiprise given yesterday upon Mrs. Betsey King, at her home about five mile3 northwest of this city, on the occasion of her seventy-fourth birthday. Mrs.

King, although she has seen so many years, has always lived In Wayne county, was born here, and has never been farther away than Lojansport. She has raised a large family of children, and is at hale and hearty. Her children at present living are Mrs. Sallie Hunger-ford, Mrs. Lydia Kimbrough and Messrs.

Joseph and Wm. 'King, all well-known citizens of this county. Mrs. Hungerford, in honor of her mother's birthday, got up a surprise upon her, which occurred yesterday and was very complete and enjoyable. The relatives and friends began gathering in at the old homestead during the forenoon, and by noon the yard was full of people fully 150 of them.

The time up to dinner was taken up with games and jollity. At noon the tables were spread in the yard, and though so large that 58 popie could be accommodated at one time, it required three sittings to accommodate all who were there. The dinner was a grand affair, comprising all the delicacies, and received ample justice. Mrs. King was presented with a handsome pair of gold spectacles and a very nice easy chair, from her children, and her satisfaction thereat was well expressed and perfectly satisfactory to the large assemblage of guests.

Prince Franklin is a colored employed on the new city building. This morning he fell off the running plank that leads up the wall. He fell fully fifteen feet, landing on his head. It was an awful fall. He lay quiet and stunned.

A physici an was sent for, but by the time he arrived Prince had recovered and was nearly ready to return to work. He has worked all day. Prince is a sober fellow, honest and hard-working. If he had landed on his shins instead of his head the result might have been frightful. August Friar went off last night and forgot his dog, leaving him locked up in his shop.

The dog is a great pet and his heart was broken and he growled, howled and barkid until hj aroused all the neighbors and called Policeman Bennett's attention. The Humane Society was loudly called for. Dr. Dougan Clark went to Lakeside. to attend the Lakeside camp meeting, now in progress.

The doctor was very unexpectedly called on to go up and take charge of the morning meetings for the expounding of scripture. The Lakeside and the Chatauqua meetings are very nearly the same. A party composed of Mr. Geo. Tangey and Miss Fannie Close, of Logansport, and Miss Emma Lester and Mrs.

Thurston, who used to clerk for Benjamin Strattan in his dry goods store in this city, and a son of the Mr. Thurston who once own- ed the Baxter farm, is here on a short visit after years of absence.

Cy. is now a prosperous merchant in Minneapolis, where he has grown wealthy, but probably he would give all he has for his old-time aspirations, hopes and loves. Mr. T. B.

Cameron, the junior editor and proprietor of that excellent paper, The Urbana Daily and "Weekly Sun, was in the city yesterday, interested in investigating the construction and working of our water-works system and the connection of S. Wiley therewith. Mr. Wiley has recently become a part owner of the Urbana works. Mr.

Cameron, who is a good-looking and active young man, paid the Item a pleasant call. It is reported that the crowd on the Dennis excursion to Home City will be so large that accommodations will be hard to get unless previously arranged for, and a great many are making arrangements accordingly, for the excursion is going to be a whale. Everybody is going. Among those who don't propose to get left are Wm. Xeedham, Frank Lackey and Tom Nicholson, who have leased a cottage and will take charge of it on BRUMBAUGH, THE SHOE MAtff 508 MAIN STREET.

The bartender goes back, reappears ia a few minutes with a pail, or pitcher, or tomato can, draws some beer into it, takes it out, and coming back drops a nickel or dime in the till.

This is "working" the "growler," and the worker is apt to be anybody from a child to a man maybe a woman. The saloonists claim that this trade doesn't pay them. If they give much beer they lose money; and if they don't give it, there is a kick. As a general thing they don't get half as much for their beer as by selling it by the schooner, and they talk of shutting it off. Mr.

and Mrs. Henry Schroeder wish us to express their thanks to their friends for kindness during their late bereavement, and especially to the young men of the St. Al-oisius society of St. Andrew's church. -Mrs.

Thy were inclosed in a leaden case, a two-inch oak box and a metal casket, but are not, of course, in a condition to be seen, though so well protected. The casket was opened yesterday and it was found the remains were much faded, from his sickness before death and the effects of being buried rive months and a long shipment through hot climates. He was hardly recognizable. Al. went to Havre with Col.

Bridgeland as vice consul, and was retained by Major Glover, Col. Bridgelaud's successor. His health failed, and he became a victim of consumption. He was appointed consul to Algiers, but the change did him no good, the disease having progressed too far, and he died on January 28, 1SS0. He was buried there; but the government had the remains disinterred, in accordance with his wish to be buried at home, and shipped them here.
