It is said by some that arrangements will be perfected by which tri-State encampments will be held for instance, Indiana, with Ohio and Illinois, or some other two States and the time of the encampment extended to sixty or ninety days instead of seven. The Light Infanty had many compliments passed uponthem for their suier-ior drilling and the handsome appearance they inade during the grand review by lioveriior Hovey.

Captain Thayer is to be complimented by all our citizens for his untiring energy in making his company rank second to none. Our boys were "given second place in the review, which was quite a mark of respect. Captain Thav-er was made officer of the day and Lieutenant W. O. Hragg was made officer of the guard, during the encampment.

This is another recognition that is not thrust upon many. Our boys were "very much taken with the young ladies ot South Henri, ami in a number of instances the young lariies "they are just too nice for anything," and since their departure a great many of them have no doubt been singing, bye, my darling, good bye." While it is impossible to speak of each individual of this most excellent company, yet we could not close this article without saying that Orderly Sargeant Stephen White was complimented by everyone on his soldierly appearance. Our people should feel proud of the reputation our boys have made and the good name they have given our city by their good behavior while away "iron: home. Xnightstown District Pair.

Three thousand dollars in remium are ollereri, all of hich will paid in full on the last day of the lair. Our grounds, consisting ol forty acres, are undergoing extensive improvements; our amphitheatre, fruit, art hall, poultry hall, and track are all undergoing repairs, and our stables, swine and sheep pens put in good condition. The prospects for a good fair were never so good. We have secured several extra attractions not usually seen upon fair grounds.

l'xcursion rates have been arranged for with the railroads. The Best Drilled and Pinest Appearing Lot of Men in Camp. South Rend Tunes. From parties who are capable of ju.lg-ing by reason of having tlone riuty in the volunteer service in the late unpleasantness it is learned that the company composing the Oreenliehl Light Intintry is the best drilled and finest appearing lot of men in camp. Not alone that, but they have the reputation of being everything that is claimed for them, without saying anything that might be construe.l as disparaging the many excellent organizations in camp.

night watchman iMidding. of this city, discovered a lire on the roof of the old Dunbar 'orner. He gave the alarm and our people were not long in coming to the scene of the fire. '1 he tlames were soon extinguished ithout doing much damage. the east roof was discovered a quantity of rags and cheese cloth that had been saturated with coal oil for the purpose of destroying this old landmark.

A board about two feet in length and one-half an inch in thickness was found with a quantity of paper nailed to it, and saturated with coal oil and grease. In the center of this hoard and paper was a small box containing a candle that had evidently been lighted by some lienri with the intention of rie-stroving the old land-mark. As the candle humeri down in the small box it set the saturated rags ami paper on lire and thus tired the building. It is a. mystery how these articles were placed on the roof as no traces can be found where the incendiary succeeded in getting on the roof.

This fire was discovered in time to save a big portion of our city from ashes. These kind of fires are getting to be too numerous, and some steps ought to be taken to ferret out the guilty persons who are thus engaged in trying to lire the business portion of our city. The machine used in firing this building can be seen at the grocery store of Frank S. Ilammel, and to give our readers an idea of its construction we had our artist make an illustration of it which is given below. A Railroad Accident.

On Monday last an engine having a Hat car ahead of it, on the grade east of Itaysville, ran on to a cow and. a serious accident happened in which two men were badly injured and will probably lose their lives, while several others were badly hurt. Tlie Hat car had on it a lot of old cross-ties that had been gathered up along the roatl, and sitting on the cross-ties were about twenty-five section men. The flat car was thrown from the track and all the men but six were covered with cross-ties or were more or less injured in the accident. The Charlottesville section men were on the train, ami Mr.

Dennis Shea, the foreman, is badly hurt in the breast; Chas. Leamon, hurt in the back Oscar Reese, foot badly mashed and hurt seriously on other parts of his body; Pat Shea another one of that section, escaped with a few slight bruises. The men were all thrown several feet into a tield ad joining the road. The wreck was not cleared awav for sometime and trains were all delayed. The Pan Handle Nurseries and Emit Parm.

Mr. J. K. Henby, of this city, has one of the linest nurseries and fruit farms to lie seen Central Indiana, situated in the western part of the city. He has over Io.ihni apple trees now ready for delivery, ami double that number of other fruit "trees, which are all in line, healthy condition, and are warranted, true to name.

He also has a large amount of small fruits. He has some ten varieties of straw berries, which are of the largest and best varieties. Persons wanting any nursery stock will do well to call at the Paii Handle Nursery, see his stock and learn his prices. Last week Prof, filascock, of this city, attended the Tipton county institute, as one of the instructors of the same. In the Tipton we find the following: "Prof.

Olascock's discussion of literature is at once instructive and entertaining." "The many useful and brilliant thoughts brought out by both instructors, are proofs positive of the great reward which attends diligent research and sturiy, every teacher in attendance at the institute will entertain the most pleasant remembrances of both Profs.

1. Thaer A. Co. I.KAN LINFSS is next to i iori-lint'ss is a true saying. With this in mind Captain K.

P. Thayer of the linn of Thay-i er meat dealers in this city, set about a few days ago to build a new-anil oder slaughter house and pens and to get the same a reasonable and safe distance' from the city limits, that mine could be eilecteri by the fumes that are likely to arise from a place of this kinri. Having completed his new slaughtering place, a Dkmocuat reporter was invited to take a look at the same. It is situated about one mile and a quarter south-east of Greenfield, on the farm of Lee C. Thayer.

He has about acres of ground set a side for his jriace. The same is encircled with a line and high fence all made pure white. The slaughter hwuso is a model of convenience and cleanliness and many labor saving devices are contained in "it for the convenience of the butcher. A large wind engine is constantly pumping fresh water which can be throw in all parts of the building with great force. The slaughtering building is so arranged that six head of cattle, thirty hogs and a good number of other stock can be slaughtered ami hung up in this house with perfect ease and safety.

On the north end of the place is a large barn which is supplied with a roomy and convenient shed which is used "for feeding stock. Fresh water runs in a large watering trough in this department where the stock can always have access to the same at anv moment. Taking this new improvement all in all it reflects much credit on Capt. Thayer as he knows the needs and wants around a slaughter house. We thought a good many of our readers would like to know-how "and where their meat conies from and with this in view, we have sent our artist out to give them an illustration of it, and it will be found in another column of to-day's Democrat.

An Old Soldier Passes Away. Mr. John C. Truxell, an old soldier of this city, passed peacefully away at the residence of his daughter MrsI James M. Hanks, on Fourth street in this citv-, on Saturday last at o'clock r.

M. The deceased was a member of the First Virginia Regiment in the late rebellion, lie was in the Ttith year of his age. His death was brought" about by paralysis of the brain. He leaves four sons and two daughters to mourn his death, body, was taken to Centralia, Ills Sunday last for burial. He has a and son-in-law connected with Greenfield Iron and Nail Mills.

His on son the The South End School House. The contractors, Orr Lane, of the new School House, now being built the city, are fast pushing the same to completion. The building will be a magnificent structure and will ariri much to the beauty of that part of the city. It is the intention of the School Trustees to have the same eompleteri in time to have school in it this fall and winter. A Very Sudden Death.

Miss Ora. the uirteen-year-old daughter of Mr. John Vanrienburgh, of Jackson township, "dieri very suririenlv on Saturriay last. She was taken on Thursday last and liiigereri until Saturday. It is said she riieri from typhoid fever in its most violent form.

Several other cases in the same neighborhood are said to be in a very critical condition. The Daily Pair Democrat.
