can 90 on the morning tram and return on
the evening train, getting off and on right
at the lake.
The report is current that the trains on
the St. Louis & Cairo road are about to
stop entirely, on account of high water.
The report is not true; all trains on the
road are running just rs usual and there is
not likely to be any interruption at all on
account of the present little freshet.
Thursday afternoon the eight year.old
daughter of MI. w. II. Schutter, Lille, fell
from porch at the house on lower Wash
ington avenue and sustained very severe
| fracture of the elbow. Yesterday the little

DR., Dyer, of Du Quoln, who will be
remembered as the successful presiding
officer over the most turbulent political
meeting ever known, that of the Republi-
can convention at the Opera House last sum
mer is IN the city to remain visiting friends
until tomorrow.
Thursday evening about 6 o'clock, as
the steamer Morgan was rounding up the
Mississippi for Birds Point, foater was
seen a short distance ahead; but before any
thing could be done to prevent 1t, the body
was struck by one of the wheels of the boat
and sent out of sight. One who saw il says
that the body had the appearance of hav-
ing been n the water about ten days.
Another gentleman who forces his I'M
gentlemanly presence upon US, named
George Hendricks alias Frank Warren, was
jagged Yesterday by Chief Myers, under an
unsatlsfed execution calling for one hun
bred days service in the city chain gang,
for having been guilty of vagrancy.
George is the same who some time ago bur
glarized the tailor shop of Mr.. Fne on
Eighth street.
The Chicago council has adopted the
ordinance permitting the saloon-keepers of
that city to take out licenses for another
year under the old rates, before the Harper
bill goes into effect; aud the Bloomington
Bulletin, in an able article of about two
columns in length, proves that the ordi
nsnce is not legal because il was not pass
ed according to the plain provisions of the
act Of incorporation.
Several days ago floater wos picked
up in the Mississippi river at Birds Point.
The coroner was notified, and he summoned
a jury, The body was searched and sat
upon by the seven wise men, and after due
dei5eration the foreman announced: ave
the jury find that this chere teller came to
his death by swollern' too much water.

body was rolled into hole dug near it, by
the river bank, and covered up.
Physicians report that there is COM
parativey little sickness in the city. The
deaths of the last few weeks resulted from
no uniform cause; in nearly every case
from some peculiar infrmity OF the victim;
in no case from any cause that would indi.
cate a vitiated atmosphere. There are no
indications Of any malarial diseases any
where in the city, and over this fact, at this
season OF the year, when other cities are
Frustrated with malaria in all its evil forms,
VIC have reason to feel very happy.
Those who have allowed themselves to
be induced to believe that we will have
big food here, fromithe rise in the rivers
above so far reported, are likely to be disap'
pointed. The only rise of any consequence
has been at st, Louis and there the river is
probably stationary by this time. The Ohio
and tributaries, at Cincinnati, Louisville,
Chattanooga and Nashville, have been fall
ing for several days. Unless We have more
heavy rains, we will very likely not have
anything approaching dangerous flood
here.
