The driving horse which was stolen
from Andreas Satfert about one wear

owner. It seems that the new possessor
OF the animal had at length obtained
sufficient courage to drive through

horse and Immediately establish proof
of his ownership. The gentleman if
wemay callhim such was from Franklin.
Walter Waibel the young son of
Henry Waibel Of this city seriously
injured the membrane of hi. left eye
Thursday afternoon. The boy was
driving a nail into hardwood plank
and accidentally struck the side of
the nail causing it to glance off and
cut the skin of his eye. He was at
tended by a physician but there is
slight chance to restore the sight which
is greatly impaired.
The dance given by the Actives of
the Turnverein at Turner hall Satur-
day evening proved to be one of the
most enjoyable social functions of the
season. The committee had something
OF novelty arranged in the way Of
small rustic benches covered with oak
limbs and which were used to advan-
tage by many. The net receipts of
the dance amounted to about 800 and
will be used for the purpose of cover
ing up part of the expenses that will
will incurr in sending a delegation to
Indianapolis.
Joseph G. Lindmeyer, the cigar
manufacturer on north State street
was declared bankrupt last Thursday
afternoon and a writ of attachment
served on his chattels. Sheriff julius
ordered the doors to be locked to the

| that the young man had a successful
| business.

German tongue. Mr.. Groebner left
