EVANSVILLE, February l6.-Many of the
roads in this section of the country are in IL
terrible condition. and travel and traffic are
very much impeded. 1t would probably he
advisable to sell the road machines for old
iron and resort to the old style of working
with the pillow and shovel. The machines
have piled the dirt SO high in the roads that
they are almost impossible. We must admit,
however, that every one does not know just
how to handle them, and probably with eX-
perienced men working them, the roads might
he made better instead of worse That is
more than likely the case. Ed
Mr.. George II. Ehler, the proprietor of the
Melrose dairy, in Baltimore, who has lately
purchased the plant of the Farmers Creamery
OF this place, has made change in his work

Amor Almony as buttermaker. The change
seems 10 give great satisfaction.

We earnestly hope that the General Assem-

Loved in life, i'll death remembered
We stood around her bedside,
Waiting with bated breath,
For the fast approaching presence.

He came amidst our agony,
binding tears and moan,
In slow and awful tones he spoke,
Il come TO claim my own"
We watched her as her spirit fled,
And scared from us above,
To the land of Seraph song
And everlasting love;
Where, in that celestial home,
She nevermorc will know,
The anguish here she patiently bore,
Nor earthly cares nor woe.
oh, in that glorious country,
In happiness complete,
Where free from every trial
May we kncel at j. Sus feet.
With the heavenly anthems singing
Our weary hearts to cheer,
And Gods promises so precious,
Casting out all fear.

The Ruined California Grape Crop

The Ruined California Grape Crop.
The partial loss of the grape crop this year,
caused by the heavy rains, is estimated to eX-
coed $l,G00.000. Farmers and vineyards all
over the northern part of the State have suf
fered. While this is true, it is equally fact
that lost and failing strength may be restored
by the persistent, systematic use of the great
national tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which renews and tones the activity of the
stomach, liver and the bowels, counteracts u
tendency to rheumatism and kidney com
plant, and prevents malarial disorders. At
ter exhausting diseases have run their course,
recovery is greatly accelerated by the use Of
the Bitters, which improves appetite and i'm
parts renewee vigor to the debiitated physi-
Que.

Fire Mt Wimbledon.

The large store-house at Wimbledon, owned
and occupied by Mr.. Geo. d. Waters, was en-
tirely destroyed by fire at an early hour on
Thursday morning, together with two dwell
ing houses, also owned by MIR. Walters, and
the stables attached to them. One OF the
houses was occupied by Miss Maggie McGilli-
gan and the other by MIR. Oliver Spencer. The
stock in the store was owned by Miss Annie
Waters, of the firm of Waters 4 Wetheril, of
Bel Air, and was insured in the Hartford Fire
Insurance, Company for 81 400. Mr.. Waters
and his clerk, Mr.. Milton Grafton, were
asleep in a room over the store when the
fire occurred, but were aroused in time to
make good their escape.
The reports which we have received are eI-
tremely meagre, and no particulars have been
learned. No idea has been given as to the
origin of the fire, as the store building, in
which it started, is heated by coal fire. The
Wimbledon postoflice was kept in the store.
The insurance upon the property issued by
the Mutual Insurance Company of Hartford
County amounts to $4,000, as follows: $500
on the store building, 81 400 on the contents
of the store, $3.50 on each of the dwellings and
$40 on the stables.
