Guy Weber the chief of this swindling company, has been arrested for misusing the United States mails by sending out circulars and matter designed to defraud; If people will persist in biting at the bait of this concern they cannot expect any sympathy from any source should they get caught. m m A Washington society woman made a call on the newly made wife of the seereUry of the interior. The servant Ushered her into a salon, when a stately person in somber raiment and of austere mein received her. After the usual exchange of amenities the visiter glanced around expectantly, as it looking for someone; then turning to the hostess she said : "I presume you
are Mr. Lamar's mother, and I would like also to see the bride."
"Madam," replied the stately dame.
"I am Mr. Izmir's wife."

A Bad "Wreck. The midnight express from tbe South on tbe Mo

liight a week, the accident occur
ring at the switch near McLain's
springs. At this point is a large fill and the train was going at a good rate of speed. A switch was for some reason or other open the train men claiming it had been pried open and a large stone placed between the rails to keep them out of place and the engine and baggage car left the track. -The engineer applied bis brakes as quickly as poseible, but after running about fifty feet the engine turned over and landed uptidedown about halfway down the embankment. It was a complete wreck. The fireman was thrown down the bank and escnpedinf the engineer was caught and held under some pieces of the t-ngine for about an hour when he was released: He was injured about the lower limbs and was brought to tbe city and his wounds dressed at the Commercial hotel. The quick action of the engineer in applying the brakes arrested an awful disaster. Greencastle Times.

ftn last ftatnrdav the base ball club from
Greencastle crossed bats with tbe I.U.boys for tbe first time this season. As may be seen from tbe score they were beaten in a
game that lost all its interest alter tne nun inning, when tbe I. U.'s knocked the ball 11 over the field for nine runs. In fact
tbe game was a very tame affair. About 500 neotle witnessed the game, among
whom was a liberal representation of De Pauw. Cornell pitched a wonderful game after having been sick for ten days or
more, and much is due to bis work tbat we gained the victory. He was well sup

The base ball match between the I. S. U. and De Pauw club lat Sutnrdnv was a one-sided affair.
I. S. U. fairly mopped the ground j
with the visiting innocents. Cornel, the I. S. U. pitcher, was taken from a sick bed to fill his position, and his curved balls made the DePauw's so dizzy with watching them that several of the "players" grew sea-sick. Three of the visit
ing team were at one time stanaing behind trees pulling their fingers into place and trying vainly to suppress fast rising teurs, while anoth
er got in Cornell's way as he was
walking the bases ana was ronea in the dust in the most undignified manner possible. When these lads learn to play marbles they ought to come down as Apollos, sing "Mary had a little lamb," and then

Martinsville Gazette : The
judgment of the Circuit Court of i market
this county, in the case of Benj. W.
Til ford, has been affirmed by the Supreme Court. It was held: "The statute requiring that druggists shall not sell liquor, except on a written prescription, is imperative. Th statute does not make any exception, and the court will not create any, except in clear cases and where there is an imperious necessity. The fact that the appellant was a physician, does not excuss him." A carefully prepared return shows that over 50,000 farms have been opened up in Kansas during the last three years. This explains much that is mysttrious about the boom iu Kansas towns, and is a record of growth aud prosperity of which any State or country in the world might well be proud.
