A week ago last Saturday a son came to brighten the home of Mr. and Mrs.

John M. Smith. Who said the. Smith race was becoming extinct? 1 The Havana and Rantoul narrow gauge, extending from Leroy, Illinois, to Lebanon, this State, which has been purchased by the Wabash road, will be changed to a standard gauge. Tm? nonnla rf t.h northern nart of AUU vjvv wuw Grant county have petitioned the Commissioners of that county, for the building of a gravel road from Marion to the Huntington county line.

Other towns of less size than Huntington have a city telegraph office. Why has'nt this place? For the same reason that the city is with many other improvements. The marriage ceremony of Lewis C. Mitten and Miss Sadie Carr took place, as announced, on Thursday evening of last week. They are now "at home at their home in the Third Ward.

The petitioners of the Union town ship gravel road are thinking of chang ins the location the road as first proposed, and to cross from the center road of the township to the river and follow that stream into town. The City Council will have to dig up the hatchet, for the Wabash road says it will not remove the stock yards as loner as thev can get a bearing in court. Uere is a chance for a law suit which should not be lost. On Tuesday of last week, while Mr, Moses Kimmel was engaged at work at his mill in Lancaster township, he had the misfortune to get the thumb of his left hand among some castings. and the consequence is he is now off duty.

The thumb is cut open to the bone the entire length. i I Daniel Shideler and Warren Hacker, two young men of Lancaster township, have taken the contract for the cutting of the timber off of 43 acres of land for Drover Young, of this city. It is an all summer's job for the boys, but they are industrious and will go through with the contract. Last Thursday evening some person or persons fired a volley of stones into the passenger coaches of the evening train. A stone struck one of the pas sengers and produced quite a severe wound.

This practice has been kept up Tor several it Is time to it. The hoodlums had better go a little slow. The festive saw got in its work on Mr. John Helton, of Lancaster township, on Tuesday of last week. Mr.

Helton was engaged at his father's sawing shingles, and in some way got one of his hands into a little too friendly intimacy with the saw. The ends of the first and second finger were sacrificed to appease the anger of the saw god. THE TNTDIANA HERALD WEDNESDAY, APjRLL 13, 1881. Several young (very young) ladies treated the boys in one of our tonsorial establishments to a lunch, one day last week. If they will call again they will, hear of something to their advantage.

On Sunday last Rev. L. Morrison, of this place, united in marriage Mr. Chas. Steele and Miss Anna M.

Brown, both of Clearcreek township, at the residence of the bride's parents. May their life be a continuation of joys and pleasures. TnE weather furnishes another local this week. For several days previous to Monday, we had Spring in all its glory, but on that day rain descended upon this mundane sphere, and finally a late but weighty edition of the "beautiful" came, and now we are prepared for almost anything. A large force of hands will be put at work upon the building of the yards and shops, near Antioch, as soon as the' weather will permit.

The company hope to be able to change to the new division by the middle of June. We hope to be able to give the plan of the yards and works in a short time. Proper steps should be taken to secure the apprehension and punishment of the 'villain or villains who have recently been guilty of the dastardly conduct of throwing stones at passenger trains while passing through the city. It is a disgrace to our people that such conduct should go unpunished. There are 163 switches on the division under the control of Roadmaster Adams, of which 08 are main track switches.

This division extends from New Haven to Logansport. Of this number Ft. Wayne has the greatest number of any point on the division, having 54 side and main track switches. Huntington has 7 main track and 8 side track switches. A dog was killed near the barn of Jonathan Sprinkle, in Clearcreek township, one day last week, which gave un mistakable signs of being rabid.

It frothed at the mouth and everv few minutes was siezed with terrible fury before it was despatched. If hydro phobia is going to attack the canine race in Winter, people should look carefully after their dogs, and it might oe well to do this twelve months in the year. Several days ago Mrs. Catharine Thompson, a widow lady of Union township, lost a 'valuable horse, death being caused by overheating the animal. The lady was very anxious to reach this city at a certain hour, and urged the horse forward, after which the horse was attacked with lung fever, resulting in its death.

Mr. F. C. Anson, of the same township, also lost a horse in the same way and about the same time. Drapers Uncle Tom's Cabin Troupe will give two entertainments at the City School Hall, next Saturday in the afternoon at 2 o'clock, and in the evening.

Gougii wnl positively deliver his farewell address in this city on May 3d.

It was with great difficulty that Mr. Gough was secured for our city, and the manager is deserving the support of the entire community. The admission has been placed as low as possible, considering the number of people the church will accommodate. As this is Mr. Gough's farewell address, no one should fail to hear him.

Abe Makin and his excellent wife, of Warren township, have adopted a child from the northern part of the State, and propose to bring it up in a manner that shall reflect credit on them. Inasmuch as Abe has been married nearly eighteen years and his home has never been brightened by the smile and prattle of a child, some of his mischievious neighbors are anxious to know bow he come to fool away so much valuable time, when his neighbors have been blessed with large families. The first, and as far as can be learn only Negro who was ever tried in this county, was Joseph Montgomery, who was charged with grand larceny. His trial took place at the September term, 1841, and he was sent to the penitentary for three and a half years and hned $10. At the same term of the court On ze pa a was put on trial for grand larceny He went to the penitentary for three years, was fined 1 and disfranchised.

This is thought to be the only Indian ever sent to prison this county. The Common Council of this place, which, by its imprudent and conduct, succeeded in alienating the Wabash Railway Company and caused our town to be deprived of improve ments which would have been of in calculable benefit to all classes of our people, has taken another step forward. It has ordered the Railroad Company to remove their stock yards. The next movement will probably be the issuing of a pronunciamento requiring the Company to remove the freight and passenger depots without the corporate limits. It may possibly be the case that our people will ere long wake up to a proper realization of the position in which they have placed themselves by selecting incompetent men for Councilmen.
