SUBSCRIPTION, 1.50 PER YEAR. Wa. A. Gabe. Editor and Propristor. The bfsixess office of the 1roGRESS IS StOW IJf THK FRAltK JJI.ni.0KO JUST WHST OF THE BURKED BLOCK. More of Choke SmitU. Hoko Smith iiKfUniantly asserts that he is not a common enemy of pensioners. This is startlinsr, if true, ami puts this valiant south crner in the attitndo of a much abused and deeply injured man. Itjmay now develop that the lead ers of the southern confederacy were not enemies of the union but that the "hungry crowd" that wore the blue were the fellows that kicked up all the row in the early sixties. The mucb-iniured member of the Smith family says that the ptypose of his pension policy is to "weed-out" the pension list and to strike from it the frauds who are sot entitled to pensions, and he proposes to continue this policy even though it reduces the number of pensioners one-half. We can well rcci edit the latter half of this statement, and believe that nothing would lie dearer to Mr. Smith than such a reduction of the pension list, but we do not believe that even he and all the Democratic apologists whom he cap. rally to his support will ever convince the country that all the men who have been stricken from the pension roll are fiauds and impostors. No bank failures have occurrod, J eeentlyy and commercial failures have decreased'. Nothing but the delay of the Senate in taking a vote stands in the way of a great business revival. A great many persons are now reported to be coming to the banks ami paying their notes, thus relieving themselves of carrying sums of money, and casing the stringency in commercial and fintbaeial circles. The Commissioner of Pensions, in his report for 1893 gives the names of sixteen widows and daughters of Revolutionary soldajrs whostiil receive' a. pension, ajso tfie names of eighty -nine soldiers and sailors of the -war of 181?. The last legislature changed the Indiana quail law, and it will be some weeks before sportsmen sun-begin banging at Bob White. Heretofore it was lawful to shoot quail from the 15th of October until the 20th of December, but last winter the date was changed. The open season now begins November 10 and continues nntil the 31st of December. Notwithstanding this law is now in effect the little birds are killed and served in restaurants in Chicago and other large cities under the name of short-billed snipe. Farmer Bego was nailing a picket to his fence when the huckster drove up. The conversation drifted from personal business to national topics. "What kind of a currency basis do! you favor : ' asked the bucks tcr. "W-a-a-1," said Mr. Bego, "1 s'pose I'm no different from a hull lot of better known people in favorin' what I can reach out an' gH the most of with the least trouble' ' Yer fur silver, then, ain't ye J" "Nope. I'm for 'taters. I did expect to be fur hay, but my 'taters has knocked my hay clean silly." A young man in Kendallville who is very particular about his washing lately wrote a note to his sweetheart, and bv an accident he put. the wrong address on er eh onvciop3 ami mailed them. The washer woman was well pleased with an invitation to take a ride next day, but when the young lady read: "If you tumble up my shirt bosom any more as you did last time, I will go somewhere else," she cried and declared she would never speak to him again. Blooniiield Democrat: There are 000 acres of corn on the Martindale farm, near Switz City, which will make an average of 100 bushels per acre. Some of the land will make more than 100 bushels. Mr. Martindale gets onehalf on the cars at Switz City. He has 1,208 acres in the farm. The Democrat does not believe tbere is a farm in the United States that can beat this. It belongs to E. B. Martindale, owner of. the New Denuison hotel, Indianapolis.

(from. the Saturday Courier. lr. and 91th. Harr$ E. Gabe. Dr. Harry K. Galie, son of the editor of the Progress, and Miss Cora Carmichael, daughter of Jas. Carmichael, the stock man, were united ia marriage at tho parsonage of Walnut St. Pres. church.

hist Wednesday morning, by the Rev. Luccock. Mr. Gabe is a graduate of Indiana University and of the Ohio Medical College. He is a young man of brilliant attainments, and no doubt has a bright future before him. The bride is well known in this community and he south part of tho county. She is highly accomplished, especially as a musician, and will be a fitting helpmate to- the man she has chosen as a companion for life. Dr. Gabo is practic ing his profession at Indianapolis, and to that city he took his bride. The Courier makes its l)est bow to Dr. and Mrs. Gabo and joins with the entire community in wishing that that there shall be nothing to mar a long life of v happiness and prosperity. The '$30,000 of IhhmIs have been sold. Spitzer & Co. of Toledo bought 26,500 at par 85,000 per month to be paid each month till paid for. Tho remainder were sold to local parties: J. C. Whisnand, $2,000; Ben. Whisnand, $500; George Thornton, $1,000. There is a good deal of real fun in foot ball. One of the I.U.. players last week had an arm broken, while another had his nose knocked over to his left ear and is now holding it in plaeo with strips of canvass. P. B. Martin has sold an interest in his grocery store, north side of the square, to Alonzo Ferguson, late of Jeffersonville. This store has always done a large business. The Baptist Association met on Friday last at Doian. A basket meeting was held on Sunday. Melvin Faris leaves this week for Chicago, where he will take a course in the collego of Pharmacy this winter. John McCalla having rented his house on north Walnut street intends to spend the winter at Cleveland, O., with his daughter. Dr. Lowder's sister, Mrs. Mary Goddard, of Bloomington, Ills. v is visiting him. Last week Ira Graves had another of the serious attacks with which he suffered so much last summer. The loss on the McGec builds', occupied by Ades Bros, was settled by the insurance adjuster on Friday. Tho amount paid was $235. Daniel Boruff and wife, of Macedonia, Iowa, are visiting relations in Bloomington and Monroe county. Gwinn Bros, of Smithvillc are making preparations to remove to Gosport. There are several striking articles in the Overland Monthly for October, One, on "The Reformatory Movement in California," refers to prison reform, and is written by A. Drahms, the Chaplain of the California State Prison at San Quentin. It shows the usual condition of affairs: 53.3 per cent, of the prisoners under thirty years old, the alarming increase of crime among' boys and young1 men, the great proportion of illiterates among these boys, and the steps now taken to educate and reform, and their effect. A Valuable Gift. The publishers of "The Pastime" are sending each new subscriber at 25 cents per year, a complete set of Domini s as a premium, and the Dominoes alone are worth more than the price of subscription. 'The I'astimc" is the old established home magazine issued monthly, filled with the most interesting serial stories. complete short stories, beautifully illustrated articles concerning home decorations and woman's peculiar spnere, a eniiorens department, a iarin and garden department, the very latest ideas and illustrations m dress matters new patterns, scientific and literary cullings from latest lectures and publications, an "Evening Pastime" department, where money prizes are within the reaeh of every painstaking subscriber, and a mine of general matter such as only this progressive home monthly gathers for its readers. Address PA8T1M1S Pcbi.ihhi.no CourAsv, Orange, N. J. Martinsville Republican: Jas. and Wm. Walls, of Monroe CO., were in court Tuesday in response to the criminal charge of taking cross ties from Taggart's station and .selling them at Martinsville. Their trial was postponed on account of the absence of the principal witnesses of defense. They found considerable trouble in renewing their bond on account of the absence of their bondsmen. Over in Monroe and Brown counties, in cases like this, they plead "the custom of country," for eight-tenths of tho staves, spokes and ties that have been sold in the past ten years came off the land that the seller had no risrht to cut timber from.

Teachers have been selected

for Salt Crook tp. as follows: Cora Butcher, Belle Lainpkina, Oscar Huntington, Chas. Bender,. Geo. Hensley, Marion Robertson ami Olivia Lamkins. A horrible accident happened on Friday morning last at about 0 o'clock, on the railroad crossing at 4th street. Charley Bee, a 12year old son of Clay Bee, was on his way to Whitaker's grocery, with a basket in his hand. He was on the north side r f the street, near the high board fence that shuts off a view of the tracks, and stepping put, it is said, was caught by the switch engine, which was backing south with a car attached. All that is known certainly about tho boy's movements is that he in, some way got on the track, was knocked down and was dragged -to tho south side of the street, the wheels of the engine and car passing over him. The body was severed diagonally, and the legs and arms mangled. Engineer Rutherford did not seo tho boy. Clay Bee, tho lad's father, is a hostler at the railroad yards south of town. The family reside on west 4th street. The remains wore gathered up and taken to Smith & Pauley's undertaking establishment, .where they were prepared for burial. Few persons' could look at tho mangled body, wimoiu tears starting to tne eyes it was a sight difficult to banish from the mind. The parents have the sympathy of every one in their heavy misfortune. The work of excavating for an addition to. the postoffico building has been begun, and tho owner hopes to have it completed at an early date. More room is imperatively necessary tho work of the postofficc cannot be conducted in its present limited quarters. The front part of the new room will be rented for some other business, and the rear portion will be used by Mr. East and hjs cleverv deputies for "working the mail." UNIVERSITY MENTION.

From thirty to forty men are practicing foot ball daily. The team will be chosen this week. Eveivthing indicates the strongest team ever put in the field here. The first lecture in the Tuesday ev ening course was given by Prof. .1. K. voinmous on ihe Money Question. Mr. Commons is recognized all over the country as a man whose opinions aro valuable. There was u large and interested audience to hear him. The address was characterized by fairness and deep thought. The first social event of the season was the "at home" by President and Mrs. Swain on Thursday evening. it was largely attended by students, faculty and citizens. It was entirely informal. The single item on the program was social enjoyment, and every one seemed to strive to make that item a success. Considerable interest is being manifested in the approaching inter-collegiate debate between DePauw and I. U. A number of the strong students are at ) work preparing for the preliminary contest, which will oecir early in November. It is certainly to be hoped ! that the example set by DePauw and I. U. will be contagious, and that inany uiuit juttri-tijinbc uuLmxcs Will uc arranged for. Prof. Bryan will continue his 3 p. m. Sunday Bible class, and Mr. Henry will conduct a class at S) a. in.

The Anderson Herald says: "Congress should not adjourn without the enactment of a law to protect national bank depositors from loss, making it practically impossible for anybody but the stockholders to lose by tho failure of a bank. Nothing to-day would do moro to restore confidence and put money in circulation than the knowledge that no depositor could bo in the least danger of losing a cent. Old paint and varnish may bo removed by an emulsion formed of two parts of ammonia shaken up with one part of turpentine. It will soften tliein so they may ob easily scraped off.
