The Union Depot is used as a passenger depot by all roads centering here, and is a convenient and commodious building. The city derives a large trade from the surrounding country, with which it is connected by 13 gravel roads, reaching all points of the country. Richmond was platted in 1816 by John Smith, incorporated a town in 1818 and as a city in 1840. It is now an exceptionally thrifty business place, supplied with hand- some residences, imposing business blocks, gas works, water works under course of construction, street railway, a paid fire de. partment (equipped with 2 steamers, hook and ladder truck and 2 hose carts), 3 na- tional banks, several hotels and 3 opera houses.
The religious and educational advan- tages of Richmond are of the best to be found in the country, and include a num- ber of graded schools employing 55 teach- ers, with an enrollment of 5,220 scholars, several private schools, normal training school, kindergarten, business college, tele- graph institute and the well known Earl- ham College. Its churches, 27 in number, representing nearly all the popular relig- ious denominations, are in the main hand- some structures and a great credit to the city.

The city carries a bonded debt of $43,000, and has real and personal property-assessed value-aggre- gating $8,000,000.
The press is represented by the Independ- ent, Evening Item and Palladium, with daily editions, the News, Palladium, Telegram, Volks Zeitung, Enquirer, Independent, Sunday Register and Democrat, issued weekly, and a monthly publication, the Earlhamite, issued by the students of Earlham College. There is no city in the State that can boast of larger manufactories than Richmond, and in number they compare favorably with any other city of like size in the country. There are in all about 175 establishments, with an aggregate capital of $5,000,000 in- vested, employing some 7,000 hands.

CARY, ROWLETT & CO.,
MANUFACTURERS OF
GRAND CHECK-ROWER,
RICHMOND, INDIANA.
ANNOUNCEMENT.
This New and Perfect Check-Rower is now offered to the gen- eral trade. It is superior to anything now in use. It works smooth and easy, drops the corn with greater accuracy and precision, with less motion, has no gearing, ratchets, or cams, and is simple, cheap and dura- ble. The successful use of it during the last season stamps it as having no equal.
Among our improvements will be found a superior Wire Cable, ar- ranged with Malleable Iron Buttons at each joint, which can be opened and closed at pleasure.
With but few working parts, and those simple and strong, it does not get out of order, and is always reliable.
The use of Check-Row Droppers ha demonstrated their ad- vantages, and they are now regarded as a necessity.
They save the time used in " marking out," as the planting is done in the same time. They save the wages, and carrying the weight of a man to do the dropping.
They make it easy to plant straight rows.
By the use of a universal coupling it is easily attached to any of the leading styles of planters.
Every Dropper fully warranted. Any defect in material or workmanship, or in performance, will be made good without charge.

Dealers Will find they are the best goods they can handle for men's wear. Geo. S. Dwinnell, Indianapolis, Ind.
