Are they worth looking at'.' Well, that's just what they are. You don't even need to know what a good shoe is, to promptly recognize tho value of our goods. They may not be a joy forever, but they're an unmistakable thing of beauty and they'll wear just as well as they look. As for our children's slioeB, it bevor.d the ]ossibi!ity of finding fault so far as either make, monev or material are concerned. It's as genuine an article from heel to toe as ever left the hands of a scrupulous manufacturer and every penny you invest in it will be a well invested.

THE ODD 1'ELLOWS.
The Three Link Men of Montgomery County Picnic at the Fair Ground. Tlio Odd Fellows could not have chosen a more perfect day for their picnic, nor could thov have enjoyed any day more thoroughly than they enjoyed to-day. Glittering regalia was seen upon the streets at an early hour this morning and by 10 o'clock several hundred of the three link men were out on dress parade. The uniform '.links from Frankfort nud Greencastle were in the city, and headed by the Crawfordsville band which furnished some elegant musicv they executed some fancy drills upon the streets. At about 11 o'clock nil the Odd Fellows formed in line and marched out east on Main street to the fair ground. Besides those marching there were many hack loads of ladies and luncheon, these two indisjiensable adjuncts to any well regulated picnic. Arrived at the ground, C. M. Travis delivered an appropriate address of welcome, after which all partook of the excellent dinner, the digestion of which was materially added by the line music of the band. This afternoon the drill by cantons occurred and short speeches delivered by a numlxr of local and visiting Odd Fellows. It has been a red letter day in the history of Odd Fellowship in Crawfordsville, and one well calculated to promote the prosperity of the order here.
Bank at Winsate.
September 30. 1891, a farmers' and merchants bank was organized under the law of the State of Indiana at Wingate. The directors elected are Murium H. Green, of Attica. John S. Martin, of Newtown, Win. Kerr, of Newtown, I. X. Meharrv and Daniel Curtis, of Wingate. They were sworn in and then elected Jesse Martin Cashier, and Win. Kerr President. The capital stock is 525,000 to run for ten years. The 6tock was taken by the most substantial of farmers and business men. One lady took Sl,000 stock. There is no more solid concern existing. Property is changing hands at ingate. Ten enterprising young moLi are doing business there now. Capital is being invested and prosperity is assured. We now see that the lean years have pass?d and the good times are dawning. The place is central and surrounded with a good and fertile country and the best of people. There can bo no question nlout its immediate growth. Anew brick school house will soon be under contract, large stores are being erected and with the best elevator no one can guess its future growth.
The Fire at Noon.
At noon to-day the Kobbins* House took fire from a defective ilue over the kitchen. The alarm was given as soon as it was discovered and the department was quickly on the ground but the fire was under way and in the main building. By almost superhuman efrts it was gotton quickly under control and a general wiping out of the building averted. The quarters of the help were drenched with water as was the kitchen. Tho amount will thus amount to several hundretl dollars but the business will not in tho least bo interfered with at tho hotel owing to the splendid work of tho department.
Emanuel's Eccentricities.
Alice Bennett, through her attornoy, John H. Courtnoy, has asked for a divorce from her husband, Emanuel Bennett. Emanuel is said to be a rude,rollicking sort a fellow, who thought it a great good joke to slap and kick the wife of liia bosom when things come rocky. He also twitted her frequently by threatening her with great bodily in jury.and ni.w sho has parted from him and wants a divorce.
fanners'Institute.
On the 24th and 25th days of November next, there will bo a Farmers' Institute hold in this city jointly by our County Institute and the State Institute. An interesting programme is being made out and every farmer in tho county should keep these dates in mind and attend the meeting. The programme will bo published in a few weeks.
Bertha is Back.
Bertha Brinoman, late of the Bobbins House, arrived in the city again last evening having given her mother at Indianapolis the slip. Mr. Jones refused to take hor back at tho hotel so sho left at once. Sho is jtill in tho city, however, visiting friends. Bertha's mother should let her stay away now until sho gets t:red, bb she surely will in time.

A SENSATION IN 00NFEEEN0E.
Dr. V7.H. Hiokman and the Wamm Oounty Farm Matter, Last Saturday the Lafayette Call contained an account of tho sale of a farm in Warreu county which had been bequeathed to the Freedmen's Aid and Southern Educational Society by John Daugherty. The Cull stated that Dr. W. 1). llickman had bought the land for So,000 at the samo time tho Society had been offered §8,400. The CulP.i article was shown Dr. Hickmtiu by The Journal and obtained from him a statement and explanation. After it had been "prepared nnd placed in type it was withheld at tho request of that gentleman. The matter was brought befo-e tho Conferonce yesterday, as will bo seen by tho following from tho Indianapolis Journal's report of tho proceedings: liov. J. C. Hartzell, D. P., secretary of the Freedmnn's Aid nnd Southern Educational Society, addressed tho Confeience nnd in tho course of his remarks mentioned the sale of a farm in Benton county, bequeathed to the society, to Kev. W. H. Hickman, D. D., president of Clark University, for $0,000.
This brought a matter before the conference that it was very anxious to get at, and immediately Elder Cisssl wr.e on his feet to interrupt Dr. Hurtzell with a question as to why the land was disposed of for 86,000 when it was worth 88,000 or S9,000 at the lowest estimate. Dr. Cissel said there was a standing offer of 88,400 for the proporty.
Dr. Hickman asked for a few minutes in which to explain his connection with the affair of which so much hr.d been said in the papers and false reports circulated by his enemies. He was granted the privilege, and in a forcible way said that he was led to believe that 80,000 was all the land was worth. Elder Cissel said he would not give So,000 for it, and other parties refused to put a price upon it, because by the action of some ditch commissioner the land had been seriously damaged by water overflowing it. He purchased' it in tho best of faith to aid the society, and had no idea of speculating. After he had bought it a great hue and cry was made that the land had boon sold for about half price and that Hickman would make money by the transaction. He was willing to sell the property for any price he might bo offered for it, and the society could have the benefit of any advice, over his purchase, he asking only remuneration for actual expense incurred in looking after the matter.
Kev. W. E. McKenzie, of Boswell, said ho had in his possession a letter from a gentleman offering 88,400 for the property. Both Dr. Hartzoll and Dr. Hickman declared at once that he could have it for that price. Tho conference seemed to think that Dr. Hickman had used no underhand means in getting possession of this laud and the liberal applause that followed his statement was joined in by Elder Cissel.
Theron McCampbell.
Everybody hero remembers Theron McCampbell who attended Wabash Collego until tho commencotueut of '90, when he went to Buffalo, N. Y. He did laundry business whilo attending Wabash and worked his way. The "Observer" in tho Time* of Buffalo, N. 1\, says tho following of him: "The Times Boomer," is and has been a well known character in the circulating department of the 1 imt'*
for over a year.
Ho came to the Times in August, 1890. There was a hearty, rugged, candor about him that impressed tho proprietor and business manager favorably. He was tho long sought for, tho much needed. The newslxiys and tho street circulation were placed in his charge. He at once became a favorite with tho boys and girls and they looked to him as they did their parents, for, counsel nnd ad*vijo. He gave up rural life in tho west for city life in Bnffalo, to learn more of tho world, to see more people, to gather now ideas and attend school. All of these ho ',ias accomplished. As a student he has distanced all competitors at the business college he attended and is to-day an expert stenographer. More than this ho has been admitted to the School of Oratory in Philadelphia and will enter that institution on the first of tho coming month, following that up with a courso at law. T. E. McCampbell has a great future before him. He will bo a self made man in the truest acceptation of thi term. He has the necessary pluck, energy and determination to surmount all obstacles and I confidently expect to hear of him as one of the great men in whatever community he may finally decide to locate in."

Surprise Party.
Mrs. Lou Hurd, of East Market street was 48 years old to-day and by tho same token was tho recipient of a delightful surprise party at tho hands of hor old neighbors from several miles east of tho city. At noon about 50 of them came in unexpectedly with well filled baskots and proceeded to take possession of hor house. Tho occasion was a most enjoyable one and it is safe to say that Mrs. Hurd never more thorou-'hlv enjoyed a birthday.

THAT DAMAGE CASE.
The Polliok Case Sill Drags Its Weary Length In the (Jirouit Court. The Follick damage suit is still on tap in the Circuit Court and a large crowd is in constant attendance eagerly drinking in the details and applauding tho sparring of opposing counsel. The defense presented several good witnesses yesterday afternoon. They are laboring hard to establish that the defendants had probable cause for action in the arrest of Alice Follick and that at all times they acted wholly without malice. This morning Jacob Beam, the loading defendant, was on tho stand and proved very good witness. Ho almost mado a scene at one time when he said in dotailing tho conversation in Anderson's office in regard to having Alice arrested: "I told Mr. Anderson, and I believed it then anil I believe it now, that Alice did not steal those chickens. However, I lielieved then and I do believe now that she was a party to the theft and had hor part to perform."
Mr. Anderson was put on the stand to prove that the defendants came before him unimpassioned and without malice to ask his advice in regard to the arrest of Miss Follick. It was by his advice .that tho arrest was made. The cross examination of Mr. Anderson was rich, he keeping all in a roar of laughter by his shrewd replies to the questions of Clodfeltor. Tho case cannot be finished beforo to-morrow niglit..
