LOUD SWEARING
Annoys the Peaceful Citizens of tho Northeast Part of Town. There are about fifty fine and fiist horses quartered at the fair grouuds and about half as many men are there to take care of them. Tho citizens for several squares around are making a tremendous complaint because they say these men talk so loud and so profanely that never licforo in their lives have they heard such a choice collection of oaths as are used by these men when training their horses and when joking with each other. A few talk of having the offenc'i«»i* against good morals fined for the violation of the statute against using profane language.

•, Extravagant Promises, Col. Anderson, late of the Junction House, has declared that he intends to revolutionize the south-east part of town He says that within a year he will have electric cars running to the Junction that he will open a street south of the Junction and call it Anderson-street, and that he will shortly purchase 70 acres of land just south of the Junction and make a city park of it. All this is very beautiful but the realization of the project would be more so.
A Scene of Excitement,.
This morning some destructive small boys set fire to the grass in the hollow back of the houses just opposite the Monon station. The grass was burning rapidly and approaching tho houses when a gang of men set in to fight the flames. Becky Oatman and a lot of other females ran excitedly around and cheered the men lustily on. Becky was so grateful that she wanted to sot the whole crowd up to beer when the fierce conflagration was finally subdued.
"V/bar's Dem Foah Dollah's?" Luther Monroe is wearing crape around his hat and his recovered Bunday clothes on his jierson. He paid tin judgment against him and recovered his clothes but is mourning the mysterious loss of four dollars. He says that when the clothes were levied upon and carried away that four big, daddy dol lars reposed peacefully in his vest pocket but were not there when the duds were returned to him. Luther makes no insinuations but thinks there'ssomething rotten in Denmark somewhere.

Trustee Ilartman was sitting peacefully in his office yesterday wheu Charley .Myers, who lives north of the city entered and after twirling his hat on his thumb in an embarasswi manner, Baid: "Squooze mo, Mist Hurtmaii, but de oder day I foitr.d dot "Sassafras George" lying down in de road mit a sunstroke and if it had been nu.'-winter dot man would have been frozen to death."
George Courson, or "Sassafras George," as hois known, is a familiar object to our citizens, as for many years the old root peddler has plied his trade in this vicinity. Ho would frequently get drunk ind was overcome by the heat the other day when picked up by Mr. elvers. Mr. Myers took the old fellow to his own home but as he failed to improve he applied to Trustee Hartinan and "Sassafras George," aged G3, is now in the county asylum.
Owen Owens, aged 81 years, who has lived in this county nearly all his life and who is one of our very oldest citizens was also committed to the same asylum by the trustee yesterday.

1 A BUSTLING OLD MAID.
She Cancmlfil A Fortono 111 HIP PART of the Dress Sucrei! to Olil Paperj. Miss Maggie Schutt, of Derry, Pa., died one day recently. She was sixtytfre years nt age, and since her father's death, twenty years ago, had been living out as a maid of all work, for a long time having been employed by a family named Bennett. For /ears Miss Schutt's relatives have been puzzled to know what she did with liev money.
She lived, says the New York Journal, like a perverse old maid and indulged in no luxuries or frivolities. Three days after her funeral two of the women of the house concluded to clean up the room occupied by Miss Schutt. Her wardrobe was not extensive but the accumulation of old knick-ltnaoks for years was quite bulky. Several articles of wearing apparel were consigned to tho fire.
Suddenly Miss Jennie Bennett unearthed a large, well-made heavy bustle of ticking. For years it had adorned the person of the departed. With the remark: "Well, here it goes, Kate." lennie threw it into the tlames, but, taking a second thought, she pulled it out again. It seemed awful heavy for bustle, she said. "Let's rip it open."
On turning over to insert the scissors a piece of green paper was soen sticking out of a hole in the seam. The green paper was a bright twenty-dollar bill. Scissors were thrown aside and deft fingers took their place. The whole thing was ripped open. There was a feminine scream of delight. There lay tens, twenties and fifties from the new scrip issues of the present day to those of a score of years ago.
Nestling in tho bed of greenbacks were shining gold eagles and double eagles and small silver coins. The find was .hastily counted. Nine thousand dollars is what it netted.
THE WOLVES OF FRANCE.
They Aro Very Nuracrou*, Hut It Is Difficult to Rill Them. J. J. Rousseau attributed any natural superiority that England possessed over France to her freedom from wolves, writes a Paris correspondent. In ISS9 five hundred and fifteen wolves were killed in France, and the bounties paid for their destruction amounted to thir-ty-six thousand francs, or nearly seventy francs per head. The reward varies, following the ago, the sex and the "antecedents" of the wolf. The ordinary sum is fortj' francs if a shewolf is young, one hundred and fifty francs for a wolf that has attacked a human being, two hundred francs. Most wolves were killed—eighty-two and seventy-six—in tho departments of the Dordogne and Charente. Under the ancient regime the lieutenant for the destruction of the wolves was an important functionary. To-day he is the largest landed proprietor in the forest district chosen by the prefect, and who binds himself to keep a pack of wolf hounds, etc., to hunt down the wolves in December and March. In return the proprietor is allowed two days' free shooting per month in the government forests. The wags say the lieutenants are the natural friend of the wolves, in order to uphold their sporting rights. It is difficult to run to earth an old wolf, because the animal can run its one hundred miles at a pinch in a single night. The Prince de Joinville has the best pack of wolf-hounds in France. Anyone who captures a wolf, no matter by what means, has only to bring the ears and right foropaw to local mayoralty to receive the reward. The ears are then slit to prevent a second presentation and the paw
Is nailed against the office wall and registered.
MORE RINGS WORN.
The "Friendship Ring" and When It May Properly Be Given. The use of jewelry by women, particularly rings, is more common than it has been for a great many years. You can hardly see a woman to-day in the streets or on the cars whose fingers are unadorned. And tho wearing of several rings on the one finger is no uncommon practice. The gift of a ring, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, is more popular now than it has been for along time. In the older times, and even up to a few years ago, a young man presented a ring to a young lady only when in the vernacular he had "intentions." Hut the gift of a ring signifies little or nothing nowadays. Even the diamond, that was once considered the invariable indication of engagement, is worn by young women who have no idea of giving up single blessedness. The friendship rinp is the name of a ring that is very common, and it is worn by nearly everybody. It is usually made up of an emerald, an opal, a pearl, an amethyst, a moonstone, a garnet or some such pretty thing, and thousands of them are worn by young girls and boys particularly, but a great many are used by the older folks as well. The friendship ring is a permissible present at almost any stage of acquaintance, and the young men are seen with them quite as frequently as the ladies. But among the women the use of jewelry is phenomenally common just now.
Machine. way of automatic
Honcnty In
A novelty in the selling machines has been placed on the market. It is honest, bays the New York Times. When a penny is dropped into its slot and for any reason it fails to send out a sample of the wares with which it is charged the patron docs not go away swearing at penny-in-the-slot machines. The penny rolls out into the little pooket made to catch it or the sample and no harm is done. One of these honest machines has been running for several weeks in tho rotunda of the county courthouse. It is stocked with chocolate bars. A lawyer dropped in five pennies at one time tho other day and when he got only three pieces of chocolate lie said the machine was a cheat like all the rest. Tho noxt day he. dropped in another cent, for which there came out one piece of oliocolate and a penny. Another trial brought out another piece of chocolate and another penny, and then the machinc ran regularly again.
