to leave the city to join Harnuin's bill car .j.j l!is hopeful slop son was inconsolable. He clung to his adopted parent with lead wails of grief, lie kicked and ft niggled viciously when torn from the embraces of his fond parent and bit at these who held him like a cat. When Scott was safely in the cab ho was released but running after it caught on lu-liind and rodo out to the bill car, whore he probably had to bo tied up until Scott escaped from the town.

It Rained a Turtle.

Allan, Walker is authority for tho story that it rained a turtle in Coal Creek township yesterday. He did not fee the turtle come down himself but the family say that in the midst of one the hardest showers they wore surprised to see a largo dark object strike tho ground a few foot from the house and rebound as if it had fallen from a tremendous distance. Upon closer examination this object proved to be a toft shell mud turtle about the size of a man's hand. It was alive in 6pite of its '••rrilile fall frointhe overhanging clouds.

It was: net possible for it to have fallen

from a tree for there was no tree near.

Stopped Thirty Men Proin Work. 1 he boys who match heading at tho leading factory are as independent as V'U please. Their places can bo filled "«ly with the greatest difficulty and ex1 ease and it is not one boy in 200 who '""i match heading properly. This independence of these young gentlemen is "iiietimes to be lamented and yesterday 'fteriHion was one of these occasions. When tho whistle blowod for work at

one of those ten boys showed up,

"r did any of them show up tho whole "fternoon. They had exorcised their independence and gone to tho fair grounds witness the field day exercises.

The Toughs of the Southeast Part of Town Mako Life a Burden to Good Citizens. From the reports that come from the southeast portion of the city it seems' that about one half the population there violate the law ami ordinances to theexoe.ssivo disgust, of the other half. Cows and horses run at large day and night, Uaniping up yards, devastating gardens and killing young fruit, trees as of yore. And it is all done repeatedly and deliberately, as must be believed when it is said that one man calmly fastened his cow in the yard of a poor widow whore it chewed oil' the tender branches of sevoral young 'apple trees. When the widI ow discovered it the owner of the bovine who hail been near by all the time, slipped up and took her (the cow awav. ... ii 4 ii t'astoni direction, lm^sinc through ZVI r. piVMiiiwiiU to some other yard whoro ... ilimes fnrni, bloving down birg» forest trees and scattering fences in all directions.

inrsday night was a good example. j. '1'he evening's entertainment began with a go-as-vou-ploasc knock down between

Although hist evening was .piito a dis-

agreeable one, yet there was a good at-

tendance, the audience being larger than

proceeding e\ening. he services ml

were opened by singing "All Hail the Tower of .Teens Name,"' followed with prayer by Rev. G. 1'. Fuson. Doctor Tracy then gave a short yet, impressive ,,f lecture and closed the meeting by giving an exhibit of some very nice scones which were somewhat varied in character, followed by the benediction. The subject for this evening will bo "The l'ower of Appetite'' which will be illustrated with scenes. Admission free.

At the union services Sunday evening a "silver offering" will be collected at the door of the tent. The chairs in the center of the tent will bo reserved for those giving 15 cents and upwards. All giving less than that will be accommodated with seats in the gallery. Dr. Tracy gets no regular salary for his services. The Executive Committee appointed by tho city pastors who have in charge the series of meetings conducted by him, only undertake to provide entertainment for his party whil0 in the city. Two collections per week are taken to meet the personal expenses of the Doctor. These collections are taken at tho door on Sunday and Thursday evenings. It is therefore hoped that all who attend on these evenings will give as liberally as possible. Anyone desirous of attending the meeting who does not feel ablo to contribute will be given a pass by applying to any of the city pastors or members of tho Executive Committee.

A Bemarkable Family.

Dextor Blood died yesterday atCharbton, Wooster county, Mass., aged 8G years. The remarkable thing about this man's life was that ho lived and died on tho farm owned by his father, grandfather and great grand-father. He died in the same room in which his father died thirty-three years ago and at exactly the same age. Tho place is now owned by one of his sons who in turn has two sons, making six generations of tho same family that have occupied tho since its occupancy by the In-

land dians.

One of the sons, A. O. Blood, is

temporarily stopping in tho city and gave THE JontNAL tho above facts.

Suicide at Oolfax.

Abraham Packer, aged sixty, of Bringhurst, deliberately walked in front of a Big Four passenger train at Colfax Thursday ovening. He was badly mangled and lived aliout an hour. Ho had been a prosperous farmer of Carroll county for many years, but had met with misfortune and was penniless. It is supposed that this misfortune prompted to the deed.

Indiana Strawberries'.

This afternoon .loo Taylor received bushels of southern Indiana strawberries. They came by express and their fare alone came to SI0.50. This is probably tho largest consignment of stiawbories over received in Craw villo.

Tho rest of Thursday night the law abiding citizens were keptawake by a big gang of drunken hoodlums who made the air heavy with their hideous yells and whoops.
